Ron Paul: Israel is Our Close Friend

[Havax]

I've talked to several necons lately who hated Ron. Lots of their number #1 issue (crazy as it is) is defending Israel. They also really like Rand and are split between him and Rubio. If Rand goes purist on not supporting Israel (even if it's just campaign talk to get elected) I'll tell you right now he's dead in the water trying for the nomination. Those are the facts. Accept it for now, or lose our only hope at every getting a libertarian(-leaning) in the white house.

I don't accept the premise of your statement that Israel has committed "atrocities" against anyone.

Is that a request for pictures of blown in half Palestinian children? Kids with legs blown off? They are only a few clicks away. Now I have a physically sick feeling from seeing a child with their intestines spread across the road. [literally] And that was just with a two second search. The pictures and video I've seen over the years is the kind of shit you don't forget.

Israel bombing journalist towers? Schools, mosques?

ETA: Meh, I'll censor myself.

What about the Palestinian terrorists strapping bombs to themselves and running into busy parts of Israel?

And how many of the times that Israel used military action were simply a response to rockets being launched into Israel?

That must be one hell of a hopeless feeling, huh? What could ever drive a man to do such a thing I've never known, personally. Then again, I didn't grow up in occupied land.

[Blowback.]

The difference between rockets and missiles is noticeable.

Israel is a parasitic, terrorist conglomerate that celebrates when the US is attacked:

I guess you could say that about most nations including our own.

Blowback works both ways.

Blowback works both ways.

Why aren't Israelis suicide bombing Palestine?


'You call it warfare but your wars aren't fair,
if they were you'd see suicide bombers at arms fairs'

I would also post the link to the Liberty bombing but that's already been discussed here ad nauseam.

Also, how many times is Frank going to bump this thread? Isn't there a forum rule that limits the number of times a user can do this?

Blowback works both ways.

Sure does. Now, tell me, do you think more blow back will accompany a bulldozed running over protesters and houses, a siege, and systemic land theft or glorified BOTTLErockets?

 

[Natural Citizen]

I hate when this crap gets politicized the way that it does. I'd surmise that anyone here who has served would agree with that.

In our current state of geopolitical memes though we're only sending our own poor youth abroad to kill other poor people. Were sending our faithful to kill others for little less than the notion of whose God is bigger than the other man or in the name of some sin of sort. Or whichever the people love them for at the moment. This is a perpetual fight that nobody can win except the assholes building their stock portfolios off of the business of the bloodshed of our children.

I'd hope that citizens aren't influenced by purely political positions and other romper room shenanigans and speak up with their position on the human aspects of these insane war games if they wish to engage in the discussion. You're sleeping giants. Don't forget that.

Israel is not a friend to anyone.

Just a reminder.

Israel beefed up security around Israel/Gaza Strip because of all the Palestinian suicide bombers.

The Palestinians are shooting themselves in the foot.

Those damned Jews in the Warsaw ghetto. There has GOT to be a solution.

 

[PSYOP]

Why bump such an old thread, Frank? Your obsession with Israel is well noted, now quit bringing it up.

 

[Falcon63]

Fuck Israel. I wouldn't be the least bit sad if they were blown right off of the map. All they do is cause problems. I do NOT want us to be their "friends".
