Obama asks Congress for money for Israel

[archibaldcrane]

Wait did Archi just quote the same thing twice with two different comments? rofl

That's how much knowledge I have at my fingertips.

Shit's so good it takes two separate comments to contain.

Wait, so you're saying you aren't one of the 47% of Americans who paid $0 in federal income taxes last year?

Im too lazy to read the article, does the 47% include babies and retirees?

This should help

It includes everybody, but clearly plenty of full-time earners are included.

Giving them their own defense mechanism would allow any troops stationed there defending them to go home wouldn't it?

[Pikarya]

Should just fund Skynet and get this shit over already.

I...don't think we have many troops stationed in Israel.

If that were the intent, then they should just waste that money in Afghanistan or Iraq.

Obama's pretty much secured his image as someone else's bitch to me just now. He cant stand up to jack shit.

Israel has roughly 46 U.S. troops right now according to what I can find online.

Fuck Isreal and fuck the middle east altogether.

Lobbying. That's why the money keeps flowing. It doesn't matter than Rahm Emmanuel or whoever else is a part of Obama's administration. If they weren't things would be roughly the same. The problem is institutional. Obama - like any other President - gets on his knees for the Zionists. They've managed to turn a conflict over land, between European invaders and the indigenous population into some kind of comic book showdown between good and evil, 'Western' 'modernized' vs. 'backwards' 'Islamists'.

It's predictable that rather than deal w/ the legal/moral issue of the rockets, that we'd instead build the Zionists a 'Toilet Buddy' - because really, those rockets are total shit. Crudely made, etc.

They've killed like 8-12 people or something in 8 years (can't remember exact numbers, that's roughly accurate though).

It's just theater.

The problem is the occupation. There is no obligation to unilaterally occupy. Under the instruments of the UN, all Sovereign States have the right to protect their sovereignty against attack by any armed person, group, militia, state or non-state entity, according to the Geneva Conventions and Laws of War, from within it’s Sovereign Territory. They are allowed to make incursions into the enemy’s territory, they may even Declare a Defensive War. More importantly they can lobby the UN/UNSC for a peace keeping force.

Gaza is not Israeli territory. Neither is the West Bank or E. Jerusalem. Israel occupies and colonizes these territories. It imports Chinese and Indian 'Jews' to the colonies. It's all a big joke.

Blatant European-style colonialism in broad day-light.

New HRW report, corroborating findings in the Goldstone Report (predictably bashed by the Zionist lobby, and their bought politicians):

The one time you'd wish the fucking Republicans would start shouting about all that money we're throwing away on worthless budget items like this.. and they're silent.

[Kael]

I'd be more OK with this if we SOLD THEM this stuff like usual, instead of us paying for it. That's retarded. Why not at least profit from it.

Granted, some people might be uncomfortable with the idea of the US being a weapons vendor. It kind of goes against the idea of the US as a beacon of peace.
