And for the record. If someone were to come into my country and tell me it's now THEIRS because the United Nations said so – I'd be a little ticked off too. I'd be up in arms about it. I would hope that you would too. Don't blame the Palestinians for feeling the same way. Terrorist acts are unacceptable – but no one would listen to them in the UN when they tried to make their point.

I did not, however, expect the liberals (SteveK and Father_Time, etc) to actually state that an “entitlement mentality” comes from neo-cons or Republicans. Wow.

As far as Israel goes, I'm not the biggest fan. I personally do not think that we had the right to force Israeli statehood upon a sovereign state that already existed – Palestine. That was wrong. Apparently, the majority of the world feels the same on that one – it's what fuels terrorist activity to this day.

Of course, now I'll be labeled an “anti-semite” for not backing Israeli sovereignty; just like I was branded a racist for not voting for Obama. I am neither and have logical reasons for both decisions.

It’s funny how Conservatives do not complain about our tax money being given away to Israel, but complain about it given away to our own people. I don’t mind supporting Israel against the crazy, backward, unrepentant, self destructive, religiously motivated murderous Arab of whom are sworn to kill all Jews, I just want American Conservatives to realize that Americans are worthy of helping, educating, worthy of healthcare, and generally worth saving also.

It’s a fair desire IMO.

They must have been trained by American liberals.
LOL

Actually it was unAmerican neocons and if you didn't know that you haven't been paying attention… LOL

I have decided not to have much of an opinion on the Israel/Palestine situation. Because I feel like a blind-folded boxer flailing away at non-existent opponent. In other words, I'm confused. I see all the emotion on both sides. And it's so thick that it feels like an impenetrable shield. I can only say:

Can't we all just get along??

They must have been trained by American liberals.
