I don't like many of the measures we take to appease Netanyahu instead of holding him and his administration to the same standards we hold literally every other foreign leader. I don't like putting the interests of Netanyahu's corrupt government over those of our own citizens. America First and all that.
    What standards do we hold all foreign leaders too? If you haven't noticed. Those standards aren't all the same for all those foreign leaders.


    Moreover you didn't say $#@! about the corrupt Europeans and how we put their National Interests over our own people.


    Sounds like nothing but more leftist faux outrage.

    The only thing that's bizarre is you trying to talk about Israel not knowing much about it Oblivious. Other than what you were told to think. Thanks for showing us how you can follow along with those who always $#@! about Israel.

    We aren't in the region for Israel. They keep us from having to be more involved. They kept Syria and Iraq from getting nukes. They would have stopped the Iranians development if Obama hadn't stopped them.

    They have it, period. They can turn the whole ME into glass. That's the point. Your hatred of Israel blinds you to the facts. They cam nuke the ME into a large waste zone. If your kind ever win out, they will have to do that at some point. maybe then you'll be happy.

    Where's the evidence the West gave them nukes?

    You are joking. You have to be.

    Obama wanted a deal so he stopped them. You saw the Russian centrifuges sitting on the docks in Iran. Israel could have taken them out on one attack.

    Israel is the only real functioning democracy in the region. I support them, but not unequivocally. I do so for a couple of reasons.

    First, Israel has proven to be an invaluable ally in the gathering and sharing of intelligence in the Middle East. They have been our eyes and ears on the ground there for a long time.

    Second, Israel is surrounded by enemies. Their refusal to give up despite the odds has earned my respect and admiration.

    Israel is far from perfect, but her positives greatly outweigh the negatives.
    If anything, it is Israel who kisses OUR ass.
