Eric -
Without regard to the subject matter of this thread, I take exception to your "logic" that since you are many in number you MUST be right. Might has NEVER made right. Neither has numbers. Consider the words of our Lord. [i]Matthew 7 13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: 14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.[/i] In fact, one of our distinguished Mods here has a sig line that sums it up - "If everyone is doin' it, its prolly wrong." Same is true of beleifs - "If everyone is believin' it its prolly wrong." WHICH is NOT to say since 70% of this board beleives something, its prolly wrong. But [b]you[/b] can't logically advocate the reverse either. |

You are correct, [b]garandman[/b], but since the numbers are against the position that both you and [b]subsailor[/b] take with respect to Israel, [u]you[/u] must be able to satisfactorily explain just how so many administrations, past American public opinion polls, and the vast majority of the members of this Board are [u]so[/u] wrong about Israel! And to date, no one has explained how Israel's stock has always been so high with both the government and the people of the United States, without resorting to allegations of 'brain washing', 'control of media', etc. My brain is quite clean thank you, and if it needs washing anytime in the future, I will handle the cleaning myself. Israel's stock is and has been so high in our estimation, simply because they are always in the right. But that's just my humble opinion.[:D] Eric The(SharedWithTheVastMajorityOfAmericans)Hun[>]:)] |

Most of the administrations since Truman have largely abandoned the Constitution. A couple of those administrations sentenced 59,000 Americans to death, tying their hands behind their backs, inserting them in a war those administrations WOULD NOT let them win. One of those administrations, on Dec. 7, 1991, the 50th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor, stood on the USS Arizona Memorial, and mocked the "narrow view of nationalism." Ya know, the [b]whole[/b] reason the 1,100 men interred beneath his dishonorable feet were DEAD. HARDLY do I feel that since some Washington beaurecratic HACK beleived something that I am compelled to. They lack the moral standing, IMO. American public opinion polls.....weren't we TOGETHER dismissng those in the Clinton regime??? To grab hold of them now....is....well....you know. Forget media distortion. MOST Americans don't have the good sense to know YOU work for what YOU get. Statistically, less than half of America is now paying the bills for the WHOLE country. What THEY beleive is irrelevant. As to the members of this board who support Israel, I see many of them on the one hand supporting the Second Amendment because it IS Constitutional, yet ignoring the fact that STEALING my tax dollars to GIVE them to a FOREIGN nation is NOWHERE a delegated POWER of the Fed gov't. In my estimation, THEY have a bit of a Constitutional crisis on their hands. They'll need to explain their "part time" Constitutionality before I feel compelled to explain ANYTHING to them. (I've heard YOUR explanation, Eric (which incidentally I don't buy.) I'll need to hear some / someone others. [b]YOU[/b] need to find support for doling out foreign WELFARE payments to Israel IS in the Constitution. Hint: IT AIN'T. Don't waste your time lookin'.) |

Stop right there![/size=5] Must the Hun continue with his history lessons? [b]Surely all of you have heard of Klaus Fuchs, and the 'Cambridge Four'?[/b] Who were they? The most prolific spies in the Cold War, that's all. Successful in getting the Soviet Union, not only the atomic bomb, but the hydrogen bomb, as well! The first is Klaus Fuchs, a native of Germany who fled when the Nazis took power, he immigrated to England and became a British subject. The remainder are: Guy Francis de Moncy [b]Burgess[/b] (1910-1963), BBC broadcaster, agent in MI6, secretary to Deputy Foreign Minister, Hector McNeil, British Foreign Office secretary, London, Washington [b]Anthony F. Blunt[/b] (1907-1983), tutor of French, art historian, art adviser to Queen Elizabeth, agent in MI5 during World War Two, "The Fourth Man" [b]Donald Maclean[/b] (1915-1983), Foreign Office secretary, Paris, Washington, Cairo, London; and, finally, [b]Harold Adrian Russell ("Kim") Philby[/b] (1912-1988), journalist, agent in MI6, "The Third Man" So if Israel is to be booted from any consideration as 'America's best ally' then it is only fair that Britain be booted, as well!

Ignoring some of the 'shadier' questions for a bit (like that of the U.S.S. Liberty), take a look at Israel. To be a country that small with that many problems, I would assume that they would not so easily break off from one of the (like it or not) most powerful countries in the world. I'm fairly sure that if, God forbid, some conflict were to arise that the US would be involved in, Israel would gladly help. Now whether this is because of friendship or the millions they recieve from us each year is another question...

I made this thread to show my fellow Canadians what Americans really do think about their contributions in the war on terror. To show that a country that wasn't using its sniper's to protect US soldiers in the feild, that a country that isn't even involved in the war in Afghanistan is looked upon higher then Canada. |

Further, you MUST be uninformed of the wording of the Ninth and Tenth Amendments. As I have already addressed BOTH of these issues at length, I'll not do so again. The only thing you have addressed at length is your blind hatred of Israel. You can shove your insults. Your post above is a very poor attempt at trying to get someone to view you as intellectual. Further, you MUST be uninformed to the wording of anything except your Israel-hating posts. I asked you a question, you again didn't answer. This is your typical pattern. You make all these claims about the Constitution. Instead of making a poor attempt at insulting someone who asks you to show them, why don't you try to back up your point. It would save a lot of typing and arguing back and forth. |

Quoted: I asked you a question, you again didn't answer. This is your typical pattern. You make all these claims about the Constitution. Instead of making a poor attempt at insulting someone who asks you to show them, why don't you try to back up your point. It would save a lot of typing and arguing back and forth. In the Constitution, there are "rights" and there are "powers." "Powers" are those things SPECIFICALLY ENUMERATED to gov't. If NOT specifically enumerated, gov't has NO power to take a certain action. So, be defintion, if NOT specifically enumerated, foreign aid is unConstitutional. The fact that the Constitution omits a POWER from the Fed gov't makes my point for me. I need not prove gov't doesn't have the power to send foreign aid all over the world, as the whole theory of Constitutional gov't is that if it ain't in the Constitution, gov't has no right to do it. For verification, ask ANYONE on this site who hasn't shown strong feelings one way or the other on the Israel issue if my interpretation is right. A preponderance will agree with me. |

Although I consider Israel a strong ally of the US, I must completely support garandman in his definition of the constitution. There's absolutely no way you can argue with him on this one. [:)]
