So you're admitting that Israel can't sustain itself on it's own merit...thanks for proving my point.

It benefits Israel more tHan the US to keep them in power, they need to be cut off.

where did I admit or imply that?

re-read my post

What I was trying to say is that America is not the only one involved in the region....Why are you advocating only America to remove itself and not all third parties?

It doesn't benefit us to be involved at all, it doesn't matter who else is involved. We should worry about ourselves. Spending billions of dollars sustaining a country that would otherwise eventually get swallowed up by its neighbors should be of no concern to us because it isn't our problem. The cold war is over, we don't have to worry about the soviets taking over the Middle East....even from a real-politik standpoint there isn't any rational reason to support Israel in the way that we do.

Except for the fact that the M.E. intelligence the U.S. receives from Israel is already worth more than what the U.S is giving in aid.

No country can sustain itself without trade and relations with other countries. Oh, and the US aid to Israel covers less than 3% of Israel's GDP. Israel can make that up by selling t-shirts at the mall :heh:

BTW, here are some questions you forgot to answer:

1) Since Palestinian is also a fake identity, do you withdraw your argument of Israeli being a "fake identity" as a talking point for discrediting Israel?

2) Why do you claim Jews didn't want Israel before the holocaust when the Zionist movement began over half a century before the rise of Nazi Germany?

3) Why do you claim that Israelis are European when 50% of Israel's Jews are actually Middle Eastern, making your generalization about Jews "living it up in Europe" not accurate? Are you aware some of them were even in Israel, Jerusalem specifically, and there was an entire area called The Jewish Quarter due to the Jewish inhabitants consistently through history?

Oh word, I wonder who set that price :heh:

None of your claims hold weight when your so-called country spends so much time, effort, and money making sure it maintains 100% support from the United States. You poking your chest out over what, exactly?

1) Since Palestinian is also a fake identity, do you withdraw your argument of Israeli being a "fake identity" as a talking point for discrediting Israel?

Na, because in my view the Palestinians have more of a moral right to the land since they have been there longer. Names and labels don't mean much to me. Didn't I explain this already?

2) Why do you claim Jews didn't want Israel before the holocaust when the Zionist movement began over half a century before the rise of Nazi Germany?

It doesn't matter when Zionism began. If European Christians weren't historically sour on Jews in the first place there would be no Zionism because Jews were otherwise perfectly content doing their thing over there. The holocaust just happened to speed up the process. Europe flushed the toilet and exported the bulk of its "Jewish problem" onto Muslim Arabs in what is now Israel who were already dealing with waves and waves of Jewish immigrants from abroad due to Europe's hatred for them.

The Jews wanted a homeland. It wasn't like it was "Israel or bust," if they could have had their homeland somewhere else and it was more feasible than Palestine they would have took that deal and ran. Things just worked out the way they did because of convenience and the fact that nobody else wanted to take on that kind of baggage.

3) Why do you claim that Israelis are European when 50% of Israel's Jews are actually Middle Eastern, making your generalization about Jews "living it up in Europe" not accurate? Are you aware some of them were even in Israel, Jerusalem specifically, and there was an entire area called The Jewish Quarter due to the Jewish inhabitants consistently through history?

So what? what makes Jews claim to the land more valid than a Muslim Arab if both are Middle Eastern? What makes one more deserving of a "homeland" than the other? It's funny how y'all aint mad at the Europeans who have been giving you the beats for hundreds and hundreds of years...but then again I can kinda understand....can't bite the hand that initially fed you I suppose :manny:

Basic common sense. The NSA's intelligence is worth 10s of billions, and Israel contributes more to American intelligence than the NSA does.

None of your claims hold weight when your so-called country spends so much time, effort, and money making sure it maintains 100% support from the United States. You poking your chest out over what, exactly?

Israel does not lobby the U.S. Pro-Israel lobbyists lobby the U.S. There is a big difference. There is also an Arab lobby, so all of this is irrelevant.

Na, because in my view the Palestinians have more of a moral right to the land since they have been there longer. Names and labels don't mean much to me. Didn't I explain this already?

None of this has to do with an argument over identity being valid or invalid. Since you're struggling with this, I'll elaborate further:

Your argument was as follows:

If p then q

If a nation has a "fake identity" Then it is a bullshyt country.

That is your logic. It is bad logic. And you apply it selectively, demonstrating hypocrisy.

It doesn't matter when Zionism began.

Yes it does, when you claim that Jews didn't care about ISrael before the holocaust

The Jews wanted a homeland. It wasn't like it was "Israel or bust," if they could have had their homeland somewhere else and it was more feasible than Palestine they would have took that deal and ran. Things just worked out the way they did because of convenience and the fact that nobody else wanted to take on that kind of baggage.

None of that is relevant to the fact that Jews have historical ties to Israel, and not other countries.


So you claim that Israelis are mostly European. What do you mean so what? Are you capable of following a conversation? :what:


what makes Jews claim to the land more valid than a Muslim Arab if both are Middle Eastern?

Unlike you, I don't base claims on genetics (I'm not racist), so it doesn't matter to me. My point was to correct your assinine claim that most Israelis are European.

Sharon did more harm to Israel than the PLO, Hamas, Hezbullah, etc ever could.

There's already one state, "Palestinians" just refuse to join it.
Using the identity in quotes just shows you have a ridiculous take on this issue that isn't even worth engaging. You'd have to take it to a stretch of insane logic to pretend Palestinians don't exist. But anyway I'm not surprised this has always been your posting steeze. Predictable position.
