Osama bin Laden was crystal clear:
The U.S. was attacked on 9/11 because of its support for Israel. Specifically, the stationing of troops in lands holy to Islam (which was done for Israel's sake).
Israel is not our friend.
Already cited in this thread, but... in 1967, Israel attacked the United States in the Mediterranean. Killed our sailors. I met and spoke with one of the survivors. Amazing story, totally censored by the Jewish U.S. press, but it's out there.
Israel is not our friend.
Read The Israel Lobby by Walt and Mearsheimer. The tightest indictment of the Jewish lobby ever put together. Strategically, Israel is worth zero -- actually, less than zero. They are a pure liability for the United States. We fork over BILLIONS and all we get in return is ATTACKED by Muslims. This is a terrible deal for the American people.
Israel is not our friend.
Israel our only ally in the mideast... yes, and before that, we had no enemies there.
Israel is not our friend.
We support Israel for two basic reasons: one, the Jews in America have a lot of power and influence, both in media and government. They seek the support for their own ethnocentric reasons. See jillian above. Two, some misguided fundies think Jesus will return there and we have to support it for that reason (even though upon this return, the Jews all go to hell... whatev.)
Israel is not our friend.
Arabs/Muslims are no great shakes, and I wouldn't import them here. Also, I don't begrudge Israel the desire to be a Jewish nation. I get that. I am just sick of the LIES told about that situation, and the fact that I as a white gentile am forced to support them, when GOD KNOWS the ******* Jews won't only NOT SUPPORT a white nation, but actively campaign against it all the while! ******* outrageous. That's Jews for you: demand that I support THEIR country, and simultaneously try to destroy mine. **** YOU, Jews. **** YOU. Did that big bad Hitler want to take you out? Heh, mebbe... but the more you deal with Jews, the more you see why someone would want to just stuff the lot of them in an oven, light the match and walk away.
