...what EXACTLY Israel has ever done for us????

Did they rush to our aid in "Nam???

When the Beirut barracks was bombed, did they apprehend anyone for us???

On any hurricane, tornado or natural diadater, did they send any aid to our wounded??

Have they even yet apologized for killing our 96 sailors on the USS Liberty on a FOUR HOUR LONG friendly fire napalm attack in 1967????

What I would like someone to do is make me a tangible list of tangible benefits we get from being Israels ally. [b]I don't want your commentary - JUST a list of TANGIBLE benefits to being their ally.[/b]

I keep hearing everyone saying "they do
LOTS of stuff for us." But no one ever gives details of what that is.

I'll start you off

1. They provide us "intelligence." (apparently nothing that would ever stop a terrorist attack, but "intelligence" none the less.)

2. (OK, your turn)

OK, let's explore that concept - we defend the weak.

Right now, Israel is weak(supposedly) We aid them, and they eventually come to be superior to the Arabs.

Does that mean we switch allegiances to the Arabs, cuz now THEY are weak?? If we do, eventually, the Arabs gain the upper hand, and we have to switch our allegiance back to Israel.

For the last 40 years, THIS is EXACTLY what US policy has been. In essence, we have perpetuated this Middle East war by funding BOTH Israel and the Arabs at different times.

The East Timorians are weak. The Checheyns are weak. The Sudanese are weak. But we DO NOT support ANY of them. Apparently, this idea that "We support the weak" ONLY applies to Isreal right now.

The only tangible benefit I can see to this policy is that the body bag industry is BOOMING.

In other words, the only REASON we need to deploy to that area is BECAUSE we support Israel. If we quit funding Israels war effort, we won't need any reason to have a military presence there.

Our presence there is a self-fulfilling  prophecy. Our presence there CREATES A NEED for us to be there.

that's a fair question.

To answer, NO.

NOT when you consider that our ENTIRE oil needs, as a nation, can be met for the next 50+ years, with deposits up in Alaska. That we own. That we can EASILY get to. that would cut gas prices by some estimates 75%. that the eco-Nazis won't let us touch.

That said, once we got in their, it was my opinion that we should have either found and captured, or if necessary, killed, Saddam Insane. No half measures.

Also, on the Fourth of July after the return from Desert Storm, I stood in front of a USGI at a state park in Eastern CT, and cried, thanking him for his service to his country.

Actually, I think you underestimate Isreals role in the Gulf Conflict. We launched many sorties from Israel, if memory serves.

Of course, they cried no tears over that. Their "policy" is  that  the ONLY good Arab is a dead Arab. They were more than happy to help us do their killing for them.

I just think we, as a nation, need to STOP financially agreeing with that policy.

Or we better come up with a new policy of our own - that the body bag will become our new national icon.

A question (or two)-
'

Have you ever ENDED a friendship because said "friend" was only using you, and brought harm to the ones you love?????

Have you ever ended a friendship because said friend KILLED 34 of your loved ones, and NEVER apologized  for it, tho you gave them over 30 years??? (reference USS Liberty)

I agree with your asessment of picking and keeping friends.

My assertion is that Israel is NOT our friend. Or at least they got a REAL funny way of showing it.

For the time period we're talking about, the oil in Alaska might as well have been on the moon!  It would have taken years to crank up any more oil production there, as opposed to reopening oil production in the Persian Gulf!

Israel has always supported us in the UN.
Israel was the first to come to our aid when the Embassy was taken in Tehran. They offered anything we needed, also Israeli Commandos wanted to come along.
Israel has provided intelligence, whether our leaders listened to it is another story.
As for Pollard he sacrificed himself to send information to Israel that was critical to saving civilians, abnd that by treaty we were to provide them, but our government with held it.
Israel did not attack Iraq, we asked them not too. They sat there and lived in terror of Scud attacks for months.
And the raid n Entebbe was lead by an American, from the Philadelphia area.

Gman,

Sorry, I was not attacking your character, I was attacking a general point of view.

Let me ask you something though.
Has the US ever been involved in the death of an allies soldier? For that matter have we ever been responsible for the death of a soldier in our own military?
If I am hearing you right, then our allies should abandon us, for that matter we should abandon ourselves. The truth is, mistakes and bad judgment are part of life.
I just feel like we should judge with the same criteria as we wish to be judged with.

Yes I have discontinued friendships because they were abusive. I have also, on occasion, had to eat my words and actions because I was wrong in my judgments.
There are two sides to every story, and the truth is ALWAYS somewhere in the middle.

1. They watched as the truck that killed the Marines in Beruit drove by .......never called to warn us.
2. They took the SAMs(new ones) to ferry to Iran for Casey & Reagan (for holding our hostages until too late for Carter  to be reelected; see book "October Surprise") replaced the new ones with the old SAMs, raised the price tenfold, passed them on to Iran and po'd them into starting the Iran/Contra bs.
3. They helped Madeline Albright and the rest of the Zionist US foreign department jerks (under Clinton) SCREW-UP our foreign policy and IMHO had alot to do with our loss of human-intel assets (see comments & accusation by Admiral Moorer on Newsmax).

Those are just a few things off the top of my head they have helped us with.

TTF -

That is also a fair question.

Friendly fire is a FACT of war. An if memory serves Israel WAS in a state of war at the time.

But friendly fire incidents do NOT last several hours long (if memory serves, it may have actually been longer)

NOT when the ships commander is radioing the attacking Israeli gunboats to cease fire.

NOT when you are in the middle of the Mediterranean, in a clearly marked US ship.

And even if it DOES happen, you apologize. We have given them 30 YEARS of opportunity to do so. To my knowledge, they have  not.

I also agree that you BE judged by the same sdtandards that you judge with.

In that vein, I will say this - that we sever ties with ANYONE who has done the above to us. The list is VERY short.

And YES, if we have done ANYTHING of this sort to our allies, meaning specifically what I have mentioned in this post, that we have not apologized for, then YES ABSOLUTELY, our allies should abandon us, becasue these actions would make us, the USA, skallywags of the first order.

You are making an assumption that I believe NEEDS to be tested before we take steps to all out warfare with the entire Arab world (or at least more of it than we really want to fight)

My suggestion to test it costs NOTHING. It actually saves money. And lives.

Simply QUIT funding Israels war machine. And continue treating Arabs as we have. The veritable "level playing field."

I propose we'll see two results -

1. The Arabs suddenly QUIT bombing us.

2. Israel suddenly gets VERY cold toward us. Some friend. Some ally. They like us for what they get out of us. Nothing more. IMO.  The term "ally" is SUPPOSED to be a two way street.

Lastly, if that doesn't work, then we turn any hostile Arab nation into a big crater hole, and we link back up with Israel.

I think that is immensely sensible and fair. But then, I ALWAYS think my suggestions are. And as my wife reminds me, I'm kinda biased towards me.  [BD]

good topic, as usual...

We could get into some serious subjects when it comes to what Israel's "done" for us.

For one, Israel's(Mossad) has been the ONLY intel. allowed into all of our Top Secret outfits, screwing us, time and time again.

It has been known(but never reported in the media)that Israel has been selling Top Secret US weapons/technology to China as far back as the 1970's.

The only country allowed by the US to hold dual citizenship, and live in the US is...you guessed it, Israel.

They are also the only people given automatic visas, no questions asked.

We could go on and on for weeks, but there's no reason for it.

Obviously there are lots of jews pulling the strings, not only in OUR government, but UP there, the ones REALLY running the show(Bilderbergs/Trilaterals).

Unfortunatelly, the support for Israel will NEVER stop, there's way too many interests(money involved) and to the leaders of this country, it's worth sacrificing a "few" American lives, as long as they can continue to line their pockets with $.

Ultimatelly, it's just BIG BUSINESS...human lives mean nothing.

Every major WAR has been started by the people who FINANCE both sides, the BIG BANKS(guess who owns them).

Unfortunatelly, It's all about the money, nothing else...

My point is that is EXACTLY what we have been doing - switching allegiances back and forth over the last 60 years.

My solution is to leave them BOTH alone to fight their own battles, and quit giving them the means to kill each other.

At that point, we can see how they individually behave.

If they play nice TOWARDS US, fine.

If either of them choose to attack us, when we are no longer siding with their enemy (as we are now siding with the Arabs enemy) then you know you've got a problem child.

And then we turn them into a parking lot. Either one of them. Or both of them. I don't really care.

Basically, I'm saying take care of ourselves first. And then take care of  whoever takes care of themselves AND us.

But I believe it is myopic in the extreme for us to side with Israel, and fund their war machine, with which they kill Arabs for kicks, and then look shocked and surprised when the Arabs attack us. Their enemies ally is their enemy.

Just as our allies enemy is our enemy.

I really believe its absurd to think that a group of people, who have dedicated their lives to causing terror and disruption, will suddenly change. Their attacks are not only on the US, but anyone who has different beliefs than them.
Sure, they largely attack US interests, but if you’re trying to scare a group of people, it helps to beat up the biggest guy in the group.

About 75% of what you pay for gas is taxes.  Does that mean that the oil in Alaka can be drilled, refined, and marketed for free?

While it might be nice to dream that we can ignore the eco-Nazis, that is a fantasy.  Its like saying "We did not need to fight the Gulf War because we can make oil just by wishing for it."  Also, the oil in Alaska is not cheap to drill or transport.  It is much, much cheaper to get it from under some sand dune in Quwait and transport it by tanker.

And it is absolutely true that the Arabs would still hate us if Israel were gone.  Our culture and our wealth are resented as much, if not more, than our support for Israel.  Didn't you know that we are the great Satan?

You can expect this type of terror, on a regular basis, from now on...and it wouldn't be far fetched to say that a guy like Usama Bin Laden who's got the ching, to posess one of those 150 Russian mini nukes that have been unaccounted for since the early 90's, who's just waiting for that "rainy day" to use it.

Bombs alone are not the solution.
Do you think we could kill 1 Billion Islamic followers to solve the problem?
Bombing the supporters of this mission AND anouncing to the world that the US supports noone from this day forth, is the answer.
