Reply #1: And he is right - to the extent that the US backs Israel. [View All]

Can you imagine what would be the stance of the US if a small Arab country had been the focus of years of Middle East destabelization and had acquired WMD, and had defied UN resolutions by the pocket-full? Add to this the fact that this small Arab country has no oil and I think you would see what the US response would be. WE would have "taken out" that little Arab country long ago, but because the country is the "Judeo" half of "Judeo-Christian" we support them regardless of their actions or their policies. To whatever extent the US can be said to "control" the world, to that extent one can say that Israel does because of the US's ardent support.
