It`s high time America realised that Israel is only your allies when America does their bidding to the letter. Any deviation from that and Israel will be calling America anti-semites just like they do anyone else who happens to have a difference of opinion ?Deborah
Deborah, anyone voicing a position for America that does not include support for Israel is called an anti-Semite.
Israel is not Americas ally. Desert Storms but one good example of that. An alliance is a commonality of values and defense against a common enemy as America and England during wwll. I do not see how the lebensraum policy by Israel in The occupied territories and the ethnic cleansing being done by Israel reflect common values. Nor do I see a common enemy in Hamas, which is a regional nationalist group of freedom fighters as being a common enemy. America?s interests and defense are not enhanced in any way by our association with Israel.
