  1. No, it is not in our country's best interest and because we have we now are fighting in Iraq....If we kept our beak out of the Middle East 9/11 would not have happened....but western companies want to make a buck there, so we have to muscle in where we can get a foot in...that is Israel.  That is our spring board to everywhere else.  Our presence irritates all the other countries and the way they can get back at us is attacking Israel....but they are getting braver and bolder pushing us back...like Viet Nam we will not win because those people fight for principle and belief...they will die for principle.  We on the other hand, are not as Strong willed in such principles....we tend to think of what is best for us...


  2. what and side with muslims noway

  3. It's not a question of "should", it's pragmatism. It would be electoral death for any American politician to turn against Israel.

  4. Yes, because they are God's chosen people.

  5. Isreal has a very powerful lobby here, we will always side with them, no matter how wrong they are

  6. We shouldn't always side with anyone, and from what I remember, we support them as our allies but will rebuke them when they make decisions that we don't agree with.  We should side with countries who we feel are doing good for their countries and ours.

  7. you bet ye, they are our only friend in this world.

  8. according to the word of God, to Abraham, which means Israel, 'I will bless those who bless you, and I will curse those who curse you'.

  9. The counter to that question is "as opposed to what"?

    In other words, if the USA does NOT side with Israel, then what exactly are they siding with then?

    Considering that Israel is a fellow democracy and a strong supporter of the USA and finds itself on the same side on many issues, then generally, I'd say "yes".

    Here's another question...

    "Should the USA always side with Canada?"

    Yes, that question sounds a little odd.

  10. we should never be on the same side as China and Russia. That would be against our national interests. And since those two never side with the Israelis, then the answer is yes.

  11. so a tribe carries a "book" of myths and uses that book to annoint itself as chosen by a god...and we buy it???? NO!!!

  12. I believe America should always side with Israel,

  13. No, but some politicians will probably make us side with them even on bad issues.

  14. No

  15. Oh right, thats why Germany is cursed even though they carried out the most massive slaughter of Jews and tried to stop Zionists from establishing Israel

    No we shouldn't, we should not bend to the whim of any country, we should collaborate, but not be a crutch to Israel.

    If they are so great, then why is the Prime Minister of Israel resigning under corruption charges.

  16. NO  Absolutely not.  Israel gets a free ride on almost every issue.  Their political action group AIPAC buys Congressmen and women and probably presidents as well.  They use the money we give them, about ONE TRILLION DOLLARS since their founding.

  17. Of course not. We're Different Countries & sometimes we're going to Disagree. NO good Relationship "Should" be a "certain way..."..  :)

  18. "Countries don't have allies or enemies, only interests."
