Am I the only one getting a little tired of the over the top Israelis these days. Just because somebody wants to stop you from killing innocent people doesnât make him a terrorist.

Bibiâs zionists have a paid for script that they are using as the slaughter the innocent of Gaza:

ANY criticism of Israel makes you a terrorist sympathizer or anti-Israel. Even if all your life youâve been a supporter of Israel, if you sympathize with children being killed you are suddenly against Israel.

He might as well just replay the clip every night of his skit where whenever he mentions Israel, he gets shouted down and/or called a self-hating jew.

To the Likudniks and the IDF warmongers, there is no such thing as an âinnocent personâ where The Wrong Semites are concerned.
It seems Israel is playing to lose the long game. Each war with the Palestinians leaves them in worsened position in the world and puts dents and holes in their âantisemitismâ armor.
(And Jew has nothing to do with this. Stewart uses the term in jest but its irrelevant. This is about the State of Israel not the ethnicity or religion of its people.)
Itâs no secret Obama has a dim view of Netanyahu as he should. I believe this to be founded in Obamaâs view that Bibi is not the man to solve this problem and will not make an earnest partner in trying to do that. If so Obama is probably right. I hope he gives this âterrorist attackâ crap deep consideration given there has been no apology for it. America has taken a huge amount of shit for its unyielding support of Israel and we do not deserve that bratty talk.

What do you expect when Bibi is hiring Republican consultants to attack this administration?

Israel is behaving like the petulant teenager who demands
respect and independence while whining that he doesnât get enough allowance money.

Unfortunately, this petulant teenager has something in the vicinity of 250-400 nuclear weapons to use as âattention gettersâ if they donât get their way.
You better help us out becauseâŚweâre dangerous! Really dangerous! And if we find ourselves in trouble, we might just start vaporizing people on our way down! So get out of the way and let us do what we want, or else!
Oh and by the way, youâre an âanti-semiteâ for questioning us. Now send more defense welfare.

Fuck Israel.
All they do is put US national security at risk. And we get nothing in return.
What an ally!

Iâm tired of monetarily propping up Israel. Its like trying to keep a non-native plant alive: you waste $ and effort trying to do something that doesnât fit. Not saying the muslim anti-semitic or at least anti-Israeli state sentiment is right either. Situation is SNAFU and always will be. Any other Western nation giving Israel billions for defense? What are they? A U.S. colony?

Israel controls our Congress. Israel controls our Senate. Israel controls our foreign policy. Israel controls our political process. Israel apparently controls much of our media. Our Secretary of Defense has to prostrate himself before Israel to get the job. Weâve put ourselves trillions in debt to support Israel. Now Israel injects herself into our domestic politics, fighting against Obamacare, fighting for tax cuts for the wealthy, fighting for cuts to social services. And all we get is stabbed in the back. Nice ally.
THIS IS THE PALESTINIAN 9/11. The only question left is how big a price is the US going to have to pay for Israelâs war crimes.

They have been using that threat since 1973!
How about a cease assistance to Israel and let them go it alone like we do and then letâs hear them whine, proposal?
We occupy Israel through finances and waste the money all the same as if we were invading Iraq for some lame ass spreading Democracy scam. What is the ROI and why do we need it, want it or give a flying flock of figs?
America first, which includes American compassion but isnât about that at our detriment! It really isnât and we really should be about, America first! We donât need permission and we would be stronger, better and more respected for it.
Itâs a credible threat though.
Israel isnât using any of its nukes. Not gonna happen. You canât vaporize Gaza or Ramallah without vaporizing Tel Aviv or Jerusalem. They arenât going to nuke Tehran either. And for all of their bluster, they havenât rattled that sabre yet. Israel will not be the second nation to detonate a nuke in war.
No. Israel is like that petulant teen, except unlike the teen who doesnât get their way, Israel canât just pack up and run away from home. And by that I mean, they arenât going to find a new daddy take care of them.
All of the histrionics are simply to buy a few more hours, a few more days to complete their mission to destroy Hamas. And the increase in rhetoric is directly correlated to the difficulties they are having doing that. The tantrums only began this past week, after nearly 2 weeks of relative silence and tacit support from this âanti-Israelâ administration. I donât recall any whining when Chuck Hagel ran up to the Hill to ask for several hundred million for Israel to replace Iron Dome missiles.
Youâll see, just like that teenager, they will come back home, with hat in hand and tout our deep and enduring friendship, and restore their allowance money and make them promise to never do it againâŚâŚuntil the next time.

We give Israel billions of dollars in support and they just insult us. Our support of Israel is one of the main reasons that the Middle East does not like us. Why do we put up with this?

No, Israel doesnât control anything of ours. But someone or some people certainly have their hands on their leadershipâs balls.
