Israel tells Texas to jump and they get to jumping - and the Republicans are always criticizing the Senate for trying to influence foreign policy and we've got a Republican Governor doing the same.

No. They do what is right.
Israel is the only democracy in the Middle-East. They are a free country that is surrounded by nations that want to see her demise.
Israel is currently at war with every Arab nation with the exception of Egypt and Jordan...I think they need all the help they can get....seems how Israel is one of the smallest countries on the map.

You're missing the vital point. Your enemies are the same as Israel's enemies - because Israel is in the frontline of battling terrorism. Sadly she has had to suffer countless terrorist attacks since 1948.
If you are against Israel, then you are essentially against democracy and liberty. In Israel, ALL citizens are free to vote and follow their own religion. This is not the case in any other Middle East nation.
Would you prefer to support Iran, which only last week declared that yet another woman, this time a mother of three, was to be stoned to death for adultery? Iran has vowed to destroy Israel and it's only right that all other democratic countries show their support for Israel - the only free land in the region.

You got things backwards my friend.
Which side is the Supper power and which is the tiny state in the Middle East?
The reason America gives so much crap to Israel is to buy influence.
For crying out loud the prime minister said he could have negotiations with Syria without US permission!
America essentially dictates foreign policy in Israel.

Did you read the article you referred to? I doubt it.
Iran has told the world that they are developing nuclear weapons and that they will destroy Israel. Their nukes are capable of reaching Europe. In response the world has imposed sanctions on Iran including freezing assets - Texas is following suit. Learn a little at: www.lookisrael.com
