By your logic the U.S should stop supporting Iraq because it's a waste of money.

Israel gave us Izhar Cohen & The Alphabeta, which was good, then they gave us Dana International. Which was not good.

The bolded part of your statement is the part I agree with. But the Jews should have a homeland.

Where do you live arunma?
In the US?
Who's land was it originally?
The natives.
So why aren't Americans packing up their bags and leaving the land to its rightful people, eh?

The US shouldn't have bombed Iraq in the first place.

The indians forgave the settlers by now because it happened so long ago and we didn't know any better. And in Canada we made amends to the Indians so they don't pay property tax and they get a whole province to themselves.
On the other hand, the creation of Israel from the Palestinian lands happened fairly recently. The US and Jewish people should have known better than to deprive Palestinians of their lands. I hope that those evil people burn in Hell.

Texas isn't the ancestral homeland, Palestine is. The only problem is that it is also the ancestral homeland of other people (modern day Palestinians). So it should be given to both of them.

I specifically said that the Israelies should not kick out the Palestinians. In fact, that's my only objection against Israel.Originally posted by Khuffie@Sep 22 2004, 09:49 PM

"Forgave?" Care to explain?
"So long ago?" Genocide-grudges usually last longer than a few decades.
"Didn't know any better?" It's very hard to systematically exterminate an entire continent's resident's by accident.
"In Canada..." Oh, that helps a lot. No offense.

Yeah... how exactly did a debate on why we should stop supporting Israel turn into a discussion on race?

Alright... I guess the first thing to do would be to figure out why we're supporting Israel in the first place.
So far the only reason's that I can think of is to prevent complete genocide and not seem like complete bastards by most of the other guys with the big explosives.

True dat. Although I think it's mostly because we don't want everyone in the Mideast to hate us with all their hearts, you know.

True... although seeing as the Middle East can't even agree to fight Israel at the same time, they probably wouldn't agree to fight against us.

Because the Middle Eastern countries can't seem to agree on anything other than they hate each other and to disagree.

That's true, they are rather self-sufficient, but I think we're just trying to make a point.
