    It is not a programed response to believe that Israel is surrounded by enemies that would destroy Israel as soon as they believe that they could get away with it. Many arab leaders, especially Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, have so stated repeatedly.

    It is.

    You don't even use your own terms and phrases, all you did was parrot that which you are programmed to say.

    He isn't arab, Iran/Persia isn't either. They're muslim though, but muslim =/= arab.

    I love knowing that there is a place to go to if and when the world gets crazy again like it did in WWII. Surely, europe is still the land where the anti-semites live and thrive who knows what they might try again.

    Neurotic nonsense If it were true, Jews would have gone to their bloody state by now. 64yrs later, two thirds of them or more have not.

    Without hundreds of billions of US dollars every year they would fall on their faces.
    Israel is in fact the main reason for much of the trouble in the ME.
    I say cut them off from the US money teat and if they fail, then they fail, if they survive, they survive.

    That was just a preface to my remark, which you, apparently , chose to ignore.

    I stand corrected on the point about Ahmadinejad, but he and the arabs agree that Israel should be wiped off the map.

    They chose this place. They could have and did consider, Alaska, Texas, I think Madagascar and I forget where else.

    Imagine if they had chosen Texas...that would sure keep the Mex from crossing the border there.:smile:

    There is a reason for people being "anti-semite". They have been run out of every European country they ever settled in and a few more elsewhere..

    Precisely.

    And of course...it is ALWAYS the other who is evil, be it Christians, Romans, Germans, and Arabs.

    And me.:smile:

    All just evil, and hated Jews, for no reasons, at all, whatsoever.

    While they have never done any wrong, of course, and if they did, it is only because they were forced to do wrong, by everyone else.

    It is a sickness.

    IT is FACT, not error, that Ahmadinejad and Arabs want Israel wiped off the map.

    they probably do yes. But I think he might object to them having actually said that. iirc, it's based on some misunderstanding when he said that he want them gone from the pages of history. Which is bad in itself tho.

    It's not a fact, saying it over and over, does not remove the point that you are just repeating lies.

    No need to apologise.

    Only demons and the sick support them.

    Ambivalent.

    On the one hand, Israel is an economically successful social welfare state with a universal single-payer health care system that affords its Jewish citizens an admirable level of social security.

    On the other hand, despite being economically successful, it begs for and receives billions of dollars from the US taxpayer whose quality of life assurance is nowhere near the level of the Israeli citizen, and its continuing illegal seizure of land via the subsidization of religious fanatics is, of course, repugnant, and counterproductive to promoting regional, equitable, peace and stability.

    Palestine and Israel will need to recognize one another before progress is achieved. Both radical visions of an Eretz Yisrael that expands to swallow Arab Lands and a Middle East in which Israel is eradicated are fantasies only conducive to more human misery.

    If it continues on its apartheid path whilst confiscating the land of others, it will become more noxious to the community of civilised nations, and that would be a shame. Its social welfare policies and regulated capitalism are admirable, and well worth preserving - especially if they were to be achieved without foreign subsidization.

    If Israel can clean up its act, it will benefit itself and its reputation. It already has much going for it.

    Israel has a very well-funded political lobbying machine exerting enormous influence over many in Congress and apologists aplenty, but the constant outflow of US wealth is exemplified by the maintenance of 662 overseas bases in 38 foreign countries, residual and resilient money pits from the Cold War. The nation-building fiascos in Iraq and Afghanistan, from with the US is finally extracting itself, were a sobering reminder of the price paid for presumptuous meddling, even with noble intentions interspersed amidst the arrogance and covert schemes.

    Israel should be respected to the extent that any sovereign nation should be respected by others, no more, no less, and be held to the same standards of human decency - sans pom poms and excuses. It is incumbent upon every nation to act in its own interest, recognizing that it precisely what the others are doing, regardless of all the schmoozy political rhetoric and ingratiating bushwa.

    Not sure what vids you mean specifically, MA, but of course, use what you wish.

    There is also no 'we'. I have not done anything to anyone.
