Wait all Palestinians are a disruptive force like isis? The terrorist group that murders people?"All", no...but it would be disingenuous to pretend that the Palestinians haven't used the same tactics (including terroristic murder). They certainly have. If you want to argue with Kyuubi on this one I'd suggest you ask why he thinks productivity = right. Or point out that putting ISIS and antifa on anything close to the same level exposes right wing fantasy. :) --- Pronounced "Whup-pot". Say it. Use it. ... Copied to Clipboard!

I just want to point out that one of my friends went to birthright and they told us about how stupid the Palestinians are because they will send rockets over the wall that "fail to detonate" and the Israelis pile them up as trophies. Citation needed on everything.

Mead posted...Historically, no. The US began backing Israel because of a moral imperitive following the Holocaust and, later, the desire to have a friendly ally in the middle east. US policy had been shifting slowly away from Israel under Obama as those needs faded and the loss of moral authority/power associated with supporting a situation that more and more clearly included Israeli repression grew. Since 2016, it appears that Trump's support for Israel is based mostly on his general preference for authoritarian-leaning regimes similar to his own (as well as their presence as an opponent to Iran, an enemy he loves to hate).
