Do you suppose the U.S. can get Israel to back off while evacuations...

[Fridays Child]

...are under way? And have any Americans in Haifa requested evacuation? Just curious.

[Betsy Ross]

1. Yes.

I fully expect that Israel will not only back off, but assist as possible. Go ahead, flame me.

2. They could get Israel to back off completely.

But they won't because they don't want to.

Now the question is, does the U.S. want to those Americans to evacuate safely? Given the evidence, I'd say no.

3. More American pawns in Bush's quest for empire?

4. I don't know what makes you

think the US could get Israel to back off completely.

5. I suspect a total boycott would work rather nicely.

So would the threat of a military strike.

It worked in Kosovo.

6. Remember all the War Profiteers are chomping at the bit to test

all their new fangled devices. "Money money money to be made!" as they shout with glee. :puke: :nuke:
