Iran wants Israel ...It comes down to this, Barrett. Iran wants Israel gone. It has pledged repeatedly to "wipe it off the map." Hamas and Hezbollah are its proxies and both pledge to kill all the Jews "to the last one." The Palestinian Authority wants the same thing, but the difference with them is, they pretend to want a two-state solution. Yet, when offered 95% of the West Bank, they refused. They want Israel gone too.<br /><br />The PA has been used as propaganda dupes and "refugees" in camps since 1948 - for sixty-six years now. They're not only willing to attack innocent Israeli civilians, they're willing to sacrifice their own as well if achieves the kind of propaganda "victories" people like you are so willing to swallow. You, and the liberal elite from whom you get your talking points, continually overlook the almost daily rocket attacks on Israel as if they don't matter. I've been there. They're real. Suicide bombings are real too, both in Israel and against Jews in other countries.<br /><br />Israel just wants to exist. I'm beginning to believe that won't be allowed until they utterly defeat those who continue to attack them. I think they'll start with Iran. They have to, or they'll all be dead in another holocaust. They know that even if you don't.<br /><br />They'll do it on their own, because the United States won't, even though our last two presidents have said a nuclear Iran is unacceptable and "all options are on the table."<br /><br />I thought the cowboy would do it before he left office, but he didn't. There's no way the community organizer will. He'll just make speeches. Unless Israel does something, there will be a nuclear Iran by the time he leaves office. Then the you know what will really hit the fan.<br /><br />Jews have been dealing with stuff like this for millennia and they take the long view. Now they have their own country again and they're not going to lay down for crazy Muslims, Shiite or Sunni.<br /><br />That's the way it is, Barrett.Tom McLaughlinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07691546351143209227noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20524196.post-65445853446900730522014-04-26T09:26:29.348-04:002014-04-26T09:26:29.348-04:00Coward, huh?

Seems to me the cowardly thing to do is sacrafice America's sons and daughters for israel. Must be nice to cheer lead, comfortably, from the side lines. All the while condoning the very things your religion abhors...<br /><br />And any American supporting dual citizens in congress simply cannot be trusted.

And you will ...We can compare attacks all day long. And you will certainly not gain any traction comparing rocket launched attacks vs f16 bombings of Gaza. The facts speak for themselves. Which is why many academics are boycotting this hypocritical apartheid state. And you have a pretty interesting defintion of democracy and morality. And to suggest the myriad documented hyper violenct and obscene acts carried out by the israeli military against innocent Palestinian civilians are not "brutal" is plain silly. And insulting...<br /><br />And to further suggest that the mainstream media is anti-israel is a comment that is very hard to take seriously. Let's count the Jewish people involved in corporate media vs the Muslim/Palestinians..hmmm. Golly, seems there aren't any Muslims and a whole bunch of Jewish people. ( by the way I don't see Judaism and Zionism as one in the same. I am all for Judaism. And any other religion. Zionsim has hijacked the Jewish faith.) And how many dual israeli citizens are in congress vs Iranian, Iraqi, palestinain, afghan, etc.?? Hmm. Again. Not one! What's the Palestinian version of AIPAC again? Oh, there isn't one. Right... And you want to suggest an anti israel bias in this country? Please....<br /><br />How many nukes does Palestine have? And israel? how about an Air Force? A navy? Etc...there is no equivocation here...at all....reality stands in stark contrast to the lies and propaganda israel and the usa promote.

They purposely position their rocket launchers in civilian homes, schools, hospitals and mosques, deliberately putting their own civilians in danger when Israeli forces take out the launchers.<br /><br />They do this because they know the mainstream media will focus on the "brutal" Israeli response. It's all part of the propaganda war waged regularly against Israel by the Obama bum-klssers in the media who ignore what the Iranian proxies do and focus like laser beams on how Israelis respond.<br /><br />Where does "Blumenthal" work?

A group of women were shot to death while waving a white flag; another family was destroyed by a missile while eating lunch; and Israeli soldiers killed Ibrahim Awajah, an eight-year-old child. His mother, Wafaa, told the documentary filmmaker Jen Marlowe that soldiers used his corpse for target practice. Numerous crimes like these were documented across the Gaza Strip.”<br /><br />Sounds like an oasis of true humanitarianism and democracy to me!!

Actually, you probably have, but didn't know it because most of them don't go around yelling Jihad or wearing a card indicating their religious affiliation. <br /><br />Every religion has its nutjobs, and it's important that we ensure that they don't harm others. However, where most people take offense with attitudes like yours is the total discrediting of upwards of 1.5 billion people who do not wish harm upon others, but simply to live good, normal lives according to the religion they were (probably) born into. Remember, the best indicator of what religion you ascribe to is where you're from and who your parents are. <br /><br />So... There's no problem in fighting extreme Islam.
