Would that put pressure on Israel to be fair to Lebanon and Palestinians? Jews are great...but it is shocking how Israel behaves and the atrocius way they treat people. What do you think...

Do you think the US's massive funding and overall backing of Israel is due to Israel's use as a strategic military ally in the Middle East or more due to zionist funding of washington's elected officials? As a strategic ally, it does not appear that Israel has proved it worth yet (except for the bombing of iraq's nuclear facilities) and has hurt our international image and overall safety (the spawning of terrorism). OR could it be political contributions and high concentrations of Jews in power in America? I have heard that Jews account for only 2% of the population but have a third of the wealth in America and that 45% of the jews worldwide reside in america. I have not verified this, but if it is true, doesnt it seem pretty obvious why Israel get such an enormous proportion of US foreign aid that is dispersed?

Some people are surprised! Roger Balwin, founder of the ACLU, stated in the 1920' that the goal of the ACLU was "Communism"...he believed that they could wipe out "religion" better known as Christianity via the judicial system...have you noticed that they have been working hard to do just that?

Now there are world renowned scientists saying that the building could not have come down the way we told they did and that it had to be a demolition job - Top US professors and scientists (yesterdays yahoo news) facing black ball status for the things they are saying.

What would the US get ? Is this or was this a prelude to a race war with the Muslim's? The wars the US is currently in could only be justified by an internal attack - was the world supposed to get sucked into a genocidal plot but then didn't forcing the US to revise it's plans? Iraq - no justification - no WMD now Iran is on the hit list and the US is giving Israel millions of everything to kill Lebonese while blocking (until recently) UN resolutions demanding peace.

If 9/11 was staged what would they get out of it other than justification to start a race war?Lets face it the media has been pushing me to hate muslims and Arab for a few years now.

Some recent quotes from postings here: (These are not my beliefs)

JUST NUKE EM AND BE DONE...

YOU ARE EITHER WITH US OR AGAINST US....

SO WHAT WOMEN AND CHILDREN ARE DEAD, THEY WEREN'T FROM MY COUNTRY...

WE NEED TO ATTACK IRAN TOO. WHO CARES IF THEY HAVENT DONE ANYTHING....

I KNOW LEBANON IS GETTING COMPLETELY DESTROYED AND INNOCENT FAMILIES ARE NOW HOMELESS OR DEAD BUT THEY ASK FOR IT WHEN THEY LET HEZ. TAKE 2 SOLDIERS.

MUSLIMS/ISLAM WANTS TO KILL US SO LETS KILL THEM FIRST....

And my favorite most disgusting male barbaric statement:
WE NEED TO ASSASSINATE THE LEADER OF IRAN, NORTH KOREA OR ANY LEADER WHO DOESNT LISTEN TO US.....

careful of what you wish for. We wanted an Iraq free of Hussein. We have that. As evil as he was he was at least a counterweight against Iran. In a Machiavellian world, perhaps it is better to choose the lesser of two evils. Idealism doesn't fill up the SUV. Iran is a far greater threat than Saddam ever was, and two thirds of Iraq are Shiites, the same sect as the ruling party in Iran.

And why does she think she should get to talk to the President about the war...if she got the chance, all US citizens should get the chance...its not as though she is an expert, or holds degrees in the subject...who does she think she is???

Or would the media DEMAND to know what is going on?

For those of you who attended a government sanctioned child abuse indoctrination center (public school), that was the project that developed the atomic bomb.

Many Christians, most of which reside in USA say that Israelis are chosen people of god and the land of Israel belongs to them because of a promise given to them in the Torah. Many Americans say this without observing an obvious contradiction. By this definition or justification the land that Americans live on today belongs to Native Americans. North America was stolen from the Native Americans and has since been colonialized by foreign peoples. I wonder how accepting you Americans would be if the Native Americans decided to take back their land by force, from you, without any compensation. It was, by gods design their land before it was stolen by Europeans. If the logic of "Chosen people" and "promised land" is your justification for what is happening in Israel, then stand by your words and give your land back to the people it belongs to, the Indians.You expect the Palistinians to give the land to the Israelis, without payment, but you wouldn't give up your homes to Indians for free.

I was looking up Ann Coulter on Wikipedia.com, and I looked at some of the things she has said. Upon reading the spokne/written quotes I have come to the conclusion, damn she's a biatch!! I mean, I don't care if you're Republican, Democratic, American or Alien, you cannot say this isn't racist:

"I think we had enough laws about the turn-of-the-century. We don't need any more." Asked how far back would she go to repeal laws, she replied, "Well, before the New Deal ... [The Emancipation Proclamation] would be a good start."

"Kwanzaa itself is a lunatic blend of schmaltzy '60s rhetoric, black racism and Marxism. Indeed, the seven 'principles'of Kwanzaa praise collectivism in every possible arena of life – economics, work, personality, even litter removal."

You can't read this and tell me that Coulter is fair and balanced at all! I mean, f*** politically incorrect, this just crosses the line!

If the following were found in Iraq, why do people still think that there weren't WMD's in Iraq.
1.77 metric tons of enriched uranium
1,500 gallons of chemical weapons agents
17 chemical warheads containing cyclosarin (a nerve agent five times more deadly than sarin gas)
Over 1,000 radioactive materials in powdered form meant for dispersal over populated areas.
Thousands of war heads that were compatible with chemical agents.
15 seperate WMD attacks (Mustard, Nerve Agent, Tabun, CS) against the Kurds, Shia's, and Iranians.
As early as 1974 Suddam was trying to aquire Nuclear technology, whether for energy and/or weapons can be debated but he didn't have a good track record.

Also Iran was under long time destruction by Suddam, why don't they support what the US is doing in Iraq?
I understand that these actions and some of the supplies could have been from before the first gulf war, but it's a fact that Suddam had WMD's, I would think he would have used them eventually.

I love this country of the United States dearly, but recently I posed a question asking for the U.S. haters to explain their hatred. I got a good response from an English man and in my comments as I chose it the best answer I agreed with some of the things he said. I have been lambasted for this. I always though it was good to have introspection and see the problems from within as a way to perhaps remedy those problems. Please let me know, if I should follow blindly and without question this country of mine fine, but I would like to think it ok for me to think for myself and notice potential problems. Any thoughts???
