welp since your not reading it, oh well waste of effort I guess
but to clarify
1) didnt post the link to say it was fact , I posted it to tell the other guy that it WAS NOT a good idea to post segments of articles , out of context
2) and I didnt say the US gave israel the land, if it read that way--mistake in tense (we both know the EU/britain and the UN did--but doesnt negate that is was GIVEN),
I wrote/meant we (the US) helped facilitate israeli growth through some economic/technological/military help. seems a little curious as to why israel- receives ANNUALLY -since 1949 2BILLION + of us taxpayer money
and we complain about income tax lol
cant just be because of the old testament? and because they used to live there?
I have no issues against israeli having a country, defending its current country even if by force, as thats the way it goes through history
but dont make it like it was WITHOUT force or ill itent and without some provocation of their ow-- with respect to the palestinians, and make it like its ONLY the palestinians that are causing the past confilcts and event his current one
3) intent is subjective. especially in war. He who wins writes the best story--since it seems that all of this is worth it because the terrorist kidnapped 2, 4 or 7 soldiers??
guess I think there is something larger in the works, at least that is what history dictates.
sure took a lot more for the US to go into iraq, and afghanistan at least
