/newpol/ - Why does the US support Israel

Name: Anonymous 2008-01-18 20:24

The old argument that their our only ally in the mid-east doesn't make sense. I was thinking about this when my buddy came back from his deployment to Qatar. The US doesn't have any military bases in Israel. In fact, I can't really think of ANYTHING the US gets out of Israel.

The USA supports Israel because the US Congress was the FIRST territory that the Jews illegally occupied.

It's a historic alliance. It doesn't have to make sense, kinda like how Pakistan is still an ally because India was too socialist.

Ah, a typical response from an Israel stooge and "anti-Semite" screamer. It's STILL TRUE that Jews exert ILLEGAL influence in the US Congress and other "halls of power" in the US Capitol.

Saying "the Jews run New York" isn't antisemitic. Antisemitic means you hate the Jews. You can still like them and think they rule the world.
