1. I think US public opinion on blind (unquestionable)support for Israel.....
Edited on Mon Jul-17-06 05:45 PM by liberaliraqvet26
is not as strong as most think. Voices questioning US policy w/ Israel on blogs, c-span and academia has been increasing of late.

22. I disagree....
questioning all the governments/organizations involved in the cycle of violence is a sign that Americans are beginning to awake to reality...and shucking off the mental crap that the US government has imposed since the chimp stole the office.

24. I think you misunderstand me, or I wasn' t clear. I meant if American's
support Isreal blindly there is no hope for them. Both sides in this conflict are wrong, but I would expect Isreal to have more self control.

11. On the other hand there is a large anti-Arab sentiment in this...
country. I hear "nuke them all" (meaning Arabs) so many times it makes me sick. I think it is more anti-Arab than support for Israeli policies.

21. These same Americans

...would nuke Canada if they had the chance. They don't play well with others.

Cheers

8. Better question: Does CNN want a more widespread Middle Eastern war?
They are no more fair and balanced than Fox news.

12. What kind of warped, one sided poll question is that?
determination, courage and sacrifice?

I can't believe the way this obviously slanted poll question is worded.

I ain't got no dog in this fight, but at least ask questions that can be answered with some honesty and without one-sided leanings.

15. Israel should remember that the teaching "an eye for an eye and a tooth
for a tooth" is a teaching about LIMITING the response to an injustice. From what I've seen, it's way out of hand.
