  • Our support of them is what makes us a target to Islamic militants. Vapor

    ***********************************************************

    Your point is what, exactly? We should be anti-Semite, become

    Islamic extremists so they will like us?

    We would be a huge target regardless.

    Still don't see how someone is an anti-Semite for disagreeing with Israel. That doesn't mean someone hates jews. It means they disagree with a country's policies.

  • No. They've positioned it so that you either support Israel unconditionally or you're an anti semite. Muslims learned this lesson so now if you speak against Islamic terrorism you're an Islamophobe.

  • Oh yeah forgot about that. I am also a klansman if I disagree with the president's decisions.

  • Still don't see how someone is an anti-Semite for disagreeing with Israel. That doesn't mean someone hates jews. It means they disagree with a country's policies. Log

    Because it isn't true. Nobody is saying that. Anti-semite means HATRED FOR JEWS.

    So, we should withdraw all support for Israel so the terrorists will like us?

    They'll still hate us. Anything else is just nonsense. And why disagree with their policies?

    What is it that you disagree with ? You become one of them, or you die.

  • I didn't even say I disagreed. I am just saying anyone who questions our dedication to giving billions to a perfectly capable country get the "antisemite" label dropped on them. I don't like welfare queens or charity cases.

  • sorry, but I haven't seen that "anti-semite" label used for disagreeing

    about aid to them.

    well then you haven't been looking even at your own posts.

  • Wrong. You aren't comprehending my posts. The false point "Our support of them is what makes us a target to Islamic militants" by. Vapor

    was bs.

    I simply took the opposite side of that, to the extreme, so show they STILL WOULD NOT LIKE US.

    Which, is to say, "anti-semite" is the opposite of supporting Israel, to the extreme, not that

    disagreeing with Israel makes you "anti-semite".

    Unless you're saying that because you disagree with Israel, you completely withdraw all support, which would

    reflect a hidden anti-semitic agenda.

    THINK before you "gotcha".

    As in, russia has been victimized by islamic militant violence. They don't support Israel, but I don't see them

    as being anti-Semitic, it's just more profitable to support the radical other countries in the region.

  • Your logic is faulty.

  • It is not. You are just conveniently seeing it the way you want to.

    Nobody thinks that disagreeing with Israel is "hating Jews". That's stupid.

    But disagreeing with Israel because you hate Jews, the latter is anti-Semitic.

    IOWs, Nobody who agrees with Israel all the time, is anti-semitic by the definition of

    the word. But on the flip side, you can hate Jews, therefore be anti-semitic, and because

    of that, you disagree with Israel.

    Or, you can disagree with Israel and not be anti-semitic at all. But I took the extreme of the first,

    and went with the extreme of the third, with "simply disagreeing with Israel" as middle ground.

    Think about it.

  • 5 BAD ASS Things About Bibi Netanyahu You Should Know

    by Top Right News on March 3, 2015 in Uncategorized

    Many Americans who have never heard Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu before, were left in awe of his command presence when taking the stage, and also his ability to rhetorically demolish Obama’s absurd rhetoric about a nuclear Iran to bits.

    On the outside, we can all see the visible attributes that makes Bibi such an incredible leader, and wish we had a leader who stood up to terrorists and Islamofascists, instead of appeasing them.

    But what you probably didn’t know is that Bibi was quite the badass in his youth, and before taking over as Israel’s leader, he racked up quite the impressive list of accomplishments, as well as made incredible sacrifices for his country.

    As compiled by IJReview, here are 5 badass things you probably didn’t know about Bibi:

    1. War hero

    The Israeli leader enlisted in the IDF at the young ate of 18, serving in an elite commando unit. He went on to fight in three different wars for his country.

    2. Has taken bullets for his country

    Deployed on many dangerous special forces missions throughout his military career, Bibi took a bullet in the shoulder while attempting to rescue the passengers of a plane hijacked by terrorists in 1972. He served on the front lines in the Yom Kippur War, where he was almost killed in the Suez Canal.

    Above: Lieutenant Benjamin Netanyahu during a ceremony to honor the Soldiers from his Sayeret Matkal commando unit. Here he is greeted by then Israeli President Zalman Shazar.

    3. His family paid the ultimate sacrifice for Israel

    During the famous “Raid on Entebbe” in Uganda, Lt. Colonel Jonathan Netanyahu, Bibi’s brother, paid the ultimate sacrifice for his country, as he was killed in action while leading his special forces troops attempting to rescue 100 of his countrymen who had been held hostage on a hijacked flight by Palestinian and East German terrorists.

    Not a single hostage was killed, and Netanyahu — the siege’s commander — was the sole Israeli casaulty in an operation that is still taught in military schools to this day. (Hollywood even made a film of it starring Charles Bronson.)

    4. Super Smart

    Not only a tough as nails soldier, Bibi is also as smart as a whip.

    He earned degrees in Management and Architecture, from two of the most prestigious schools in the country — Harvard and MIT. He would go on to be recruited to work for Boston Consulting in 1976, as a coworker of Mitt Romney and eventually becoming a personal friend.

    5. One of the most successful politicians in history

    bibi-7.jpg

    He has held these positions since entering Israeli politics:

    • Deputy Chief of Mission, Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC (’82-’84)
    • Ambassador of Israel to the United Nations (’84-’88)
    • Deputy Minister of Foreign Affairs (’88-’91)
    • Deputy Minister in the Prime Minister’s Office (’91-’92)
    • Chairman of Likud, Leader of the Opposition (’93-’96)
    • Prime Minister (’96-’99 & ’09-present)
    • Israeli Foreign Affairs Minister (’02-’03)
    • Israeli Finance Minister (’03-’05)
    • All around badass (1949-present)
    And Netanyahu has now addressed Congress as many times as Winston Churchill.

    So before Barack Obama (who can be seen below during his drug-addled “Choom Gang” phase, at the same exact age as the Bibi that accompanies him) tries to further mess with Netanyahu, he might wish to review the list above.

    Bibi is a true bad ass.

    I agree with Cal here. he wasn't saying that disagreeing with Israel is anti-semitism. he was making the point that no matter what some people say, the idea that Muslim hostility against United States would disappear if we withdrew support for Israel is foolish.

    I bet that if we withdrew all support, all aid and all relations the jihad would continue.

    Bottom line, the United States could pursue an actively antisemitic foreign policy and those who hate us would still hate us. I think that was clear.

  • Bibi is a great man, wish we had one like him as our president.

  • I think Bibi is a great leader. The heat he gets is usually from pussies who think they should just accept having rockets fired into their neighborhoods.

    I wonder how many rocket strikes coming from Juarez into El Paso we would put up with? even Toronto into Buffalo. Thunder Bay into Minneapolis St Paul?

    They live with the threats and danger every single day - they don't have the luxury

    of taking everything for granted, and having nitwilly,appeasement mindsets like

    a Neville Chamberlein...

    or an Obamao.
