Congress' support for Israel's assault on Lebanon is sincere, right?
It's not just some political calculation without conviction designed to benefit them in the upcoming elections . . . is it?

Because, that would be reprehensible, imo.

2. I think the average voter just may agree with their course
It's those who dissent from their positions who I think they better start becoming concerned with. This early support of Israeli actions could backfire as the Lebanese civilian casualties mount and the US becomes embroiled in the war to the extent that we become 'collateral' targets of Arab recriminations and reprisals

3. It certainly has upset me.
Now I am getting hit with certain parties constantly reminding me that nearly every Democratic Congressman supported the Israeli actions. It reminds me that maybe none of these people are for me and I am simply kidding myself, thinking I can work within this system. I certainly can't be the only one.

4. they can't sincerely support the atrocities
Children are being burned with chemical weapons. Nobody can be sincere about supporting that
