there will be a conflct between iran and america if iran continues with plans to sell oil in euros rather than dollars. at the moment all oil is traded in us dollars, and as a result most of this money is stored in american banks.
using euros means no dollars and this means billions in lost interest to the us government.
with regard to the israel question, has anyone actually wondered what the middle east would be like without an israel? without the suicides in gaza, the murders in lebannon? why does virtually every country in the middle east want israel wiped off the map?
would a middle east with no israel mean peace in the region? probably. but if everyone abandoned religion then there would be peace around the whole world. anti semitism should not be supported but neither should blind allegience to a country that fires american supplied rockets into a school. hmmm wonder why america is hated so much? theres the reason..dont forget, wasnt america formed with an act of terrorism in a certain harbour in boston?

Israel is America's best friend on this planet. They would never do anything to hurt America. Hizbullah should not mess with an army at par with the USA.
This action by Israel may help the Iraqies spread hatred against USA and Israel.
However, If you are a regular Lebanese citizen and their are many christians who live in Lebanon (Their President is a Christian) your life has been destroyed by Israel's action & you would want Israel to stop. Most people in Lebanon probably hate Israel at this time.

Of course there is !
And it has nothing to do with "Freedom", "Terrorism" or other ideological bullshit you read or hear about.
Britain decides to support Israel , for as long as ON THE LONG RUN it is beneficial to Britain.
Support for Israel or other countries have advantages and disadvantages , and they are weighed against each other, and the weighing stone is usually Money and power , in that order !!
After all, Britain did not always support Israel, I recall British government once having had a prize on Moshe Dayan's head !

You are right. Let's just cut off all support for Isreal, let the terrorist run rampant and continue to attack the USA because THEY STILL HATE US!!!!!!
Israel is a vital ally in the middle east and it would not only be irresponible to cut off support - it would be foolish. The Islamic Extremists will still attack America and what we represent because we are still sinners in their eyes.
Israel is a good friend and we should not turn tail and hide because of the heightened terror attacks that George W. Bush has brought on to us.

Of course there'll be a price to pay, and with the war chimp(Bush) stirring up trouble as usual, things will only get worse.
These 'nutters' who you refer to are people pushed to the limit and backed into a corner which seems very hard to get out of short of relinquishing the only home they know or total destruction. (Can you appreciate their position when its put like that?)
'Our boys'...this term always makes me laugh, it shows the shortsightedness and glaring arrogance which escalates volatile situations into violence very quickly. They certainly dont represent me ...this is the www, the WORLD WIDE web, your term implies that you havent given any consideration at all to anyone outside your own territory.
Maybe if we began to think like a global nation instead of compartmentalising and pigeonholing people we would have fewer problems.

Isn't it strange that when the US supplies huge amounts of military and financial aid to a country, the US gets to control them.
This is not the case with Israel, they control the US. And yes, in the long run Israel will lose and all that money and military equipment will have been for naught.

Would you rather concede Israel to Islamic loonies? Do you really think we'd find peace if Israel were destroyed? Israel takes the attacks that surely would be targeted at us.. we OWE our support

The question, rather, is have we already paid a price for our support of Isreal?
Go to 250 Greenwich Street in New York- that will answer your question.
