I would have to strongly disagree with that. When we say "Jump!" Israel says "How high? Would you like us to get your slippers?"

...all wrong
America as Israel's puppet? How can you POSSIBLY justify that statement?
Or the other way, for that matter?
Israel and America (and I speak as a Jewish-American who has spent time in Israel and has extensive family on both sides... which makes me slightly less unqualified than, say, a drunken street person) are a pair of war-mongering nations interested in gaining powerful footholds in the Middle East.
Why would one of these two countries have to bully the other one, when they both have the same interests? The only time they disagree is when Israel wants to bomb TODAY and the US wants to bomb TOMORROW.
*cough* Iraq *cough* Afghanistan *cough* What? Iraq AGAIN?
-SporkPimp
(For those of you unfamiliar with history, our alliance with Israel started during the Cold War... the Israelis were smack in the middle of the USSR-dominated Middle East... gee, I wonder why we would ally with the world's best spies and military who happen to be in the middle of our enemies' oil fields...)

I disagree..US and Israel are dependant upon each other a lot..it's not that the one controls the other.
I support the Irish more than the Israeli's tough..England invaded Ireland and refuses to leave the Island..the Israeli's occupy the palistinians country.
I am still wondering weither the allied forces gave Israels to the jews to make up for the war or if America pushed this thing to get foothold in the middle-east...
I'm curious tough..please state the "facts" you speak of..always enjoy a good laugh..hell you might even confince me

This kind of sentiment is as pervasive as it is incorrect. Israel, in its present state, is a nation that was formed in the late 40s. But it was a Jewish state long before that, and long before the people we have come to call the Palestinians "owned" that land. There has never been a sovereign nation known as Palestine. There was a Jewish state, which was first conquered by the Babylonians in 500-600BC. It was restored, only to be crushed in the early AD years by the Roman Empire.
So, really, what you mean to say, Smoothdrive, is that the land we now call Israel only belongs to the Palestinians in the sense that the wound is fresh. Nevermind the fact that the Jews owned those lands over 2000 years ago.
This is an interesting phenomenon in the analysis of history, and it is not unique to just you. What I mean is this: many people only seem to think things are terrible when they've occured recently.
That said, I do feel some compassion for the Palestinians. However, there will be no peace in that region unless they reign in Hamas and other terrorist groups. People will be willing to deal with them then. But as long as these groups --whose aim is NOT an independent state but rather the irradication of the Jews-- function as the "activists" of the PLO, there will be no peace.

We should help the jews (or just turn a blind eye) while they kill all the sand niggers.

The land we call whatever belongs (in the moral/sentimental sense) to whatever people live there. How would you like to be held responsible for things that happened 2000 years before you were born? It is not about history, but about actual people.
There's another thing about your post... One of the greatest problems a foreigner may have with American English is the fact that words 'evolve' very fast... Nation... Israel is a nation that was formed in the 40's...
No, Israel is a state that was formed etc. An institution, not a cultural community. The Israeli nation was formed, well, God knows when. There is plenty to talk about the specificity of this nation, the unique way it's national cultural atributes are determined by their religion etc.
But how can we discuss anything when we are exposed to the possibility that even as we are speaking, a court in the US decides that the word 'nation' means something else, or just the trend changes and 'nation' starts meaning whatever to the American public?

I guess I was wrong about you Smoothdrive, I had you as a
person with a bit of intelligence, obviously I was wrong
The problems in Northern Ireland are not as simple as you make
out. Please read this

Honestly Java, I can understand that you may have certain biases towards or against certain people or faiths, but to outright deny the existence of Palestine and to claim that the Jews, who owned a scrap of land thousands of years ago and left it of their free will, have full rights to the land that the Palestinians have been living in for those thousands of years is pushing it too far.
Its pretty ironic considering you're living on "Native American property" yourself
I really can't understand how the Israelis can feel entitles to Palestine after WW2. What exactly entitled them to this land? Would you care to explain? Is it because they owned it 2000 years ago?? And how do you justify the loss of the Palestinians? Why do they deserve all of this? If you're going to say "Hamas", then let me tell you there was no "Hamas" until there was a country formed in the 40s named Israel that decided it was entitled to the world
Reading a history book and babbling it out in a forum isn't going to prove anything unless you actually take time to analyze and understand the facts

Property, shmoperty. If you go back far enough, we were just the "smarter" apes in Africa, and the world belonged to the animals.
I say we all kill ourselves and give it back to them.

Repaired your link..don't see how facts and figure will change my mind tough..it just goes on about how many people live in northern Ireland and how many is invested and bla bla bla..<edit>OK found the History button..it is complicated indeed, my view remains the same however</edit>
Only problem i see is the rufusal of the British to give up the last bit of the Island..if they would have left the island 30 years ago there would not be a conflict today and the UK could save all the money they're spending there and use that for improving the lives of the other inhabitants of the UK..win/win situation.
PS You maybe right about me being wrong..but you're confusing intelligence with knowledge of facts in that case

Sorry about the link, I fixed it
The point I was making is that the whole situation over there is
not quite as simple as you seemed to think. I don't really
understand all the politics behind it all either  All I
know is that we can't just leave because there are a lot of
residents there who want us to stay.
ps. If you haven't got knowledge of the facts, what gives you the
right to comment ?

I am extremely dissapointed in your reply. You do yourself a great disservice, sir, when you presume to know my thoughts. I am greatly offended that you would even suggest that I have biases against peoples, cultures, or faiths.
Now, if you are going to critisize me and my views, then I should hope that you would some research. First, there has never been a sovereign nation known as Palestine. You cannot disagree with that because it is factual. The very term "Palestine" was a name given to Israeli lands by the Romans and pertains to the Philistines. I am not denying the Palestinian right to live in peace, but please don't misrepresent fact: there has never been a nation known as Palestine.
Second, the Jews did not leave Israel of their own accord. The temple was destroyed and the Jews --for the most part-- were forced into exile by the Romans.
So your argument is basically this: "the Jews don't own the land because they were forced off of it in the First Century. The Palestinians, then, deserve the land because they were occupying it in the 40s." That doesn't make sense to me. Does that mean, then, that the Israeli occupation of Palestine will be okay in the year 4000? I don't understand. I think both peoples should be able to share those lands.
The fact that the formation of Hamas was a response to Israeli occupation does not negate the fact that Hamas is an unlawful, immoral, and merciless terrorist organization.
Your problem is that you misunderstand me. I said that Palestine has never existed, and this is true. There has never been a Palestinian state. "Palestine" went from being a Jewish state to a Babylonian-controlled territory. Then it became a Jewish state again, only to be renamed and eventually destroyed by the Romans. Then it became a British territory called Palestine, only to be returned to the Jews in the 1940s. This is all fact. But it does not mean that I think the Jews have been faultless, nor do I think that they should control all the Holy Lands. The Palestinians were indeed there and should retain some ownership. But to say that it belongs to them simply and solely because they used to live there totally ignores the fact that the Jews also used to live there.

Get this fokk heads. Yesterday I had the pleasure to speak with a family from Iran. They live hear now but visit Iran twice a year.
I talked with them for awhile, I was kinda surprized with what they said. They said that the Iranian goverenment only really represented 10% of the people (we allready knew this). They then said that most all the Iranians WANTED the USA to take out Saddam and take over Iraq. AFTER we do that they wanted the USA to do the same thing to IRAN. Holy shit!!! A majority of Iranians want the USA to come in and take over.
Tells you what these puesdo fokk head wanna be inteldicks know.
We need to stop wasting time and start a policy of killing all radical muslim governments.

America is NOT Israel's puppet - America is the puppet of the liberal Jews throughout the country! Now, I'm not being totally facetious - the extremely rich liberal Jews control a lot in America, including a majority of the media we watch and listen to... and all I have to say is, "Damn straight! Bout time people with sense took control". However, to be totally serious..so what if America has an interest in helping Israel? Israel is one of the very very few countries in the Middle East with an extremely friendly relationship with America - why wouldn't we want to encourage and foster that friendly relationship? If Israel asks for help, we give it to them not because we would expect it in return, but because people here want to help Israel for various reasons without expectation of reciprocation. Those people might want to help because they are Jewish, or because they want to see America keep at least one good, strong ally in the Middle East...

I have a much better idea - why don't you stop being racist? We need to start a policy of killing all radical governments? Maybe. All radical MUSLIM governments? I think not. I would think that Fidel Castro is just as bad as some of these Middle Eastern (not Muslim) dictatorships... Anyway, I happen to personally know one of the sons of the Bakhtiari family (sp? its Tiari now, they changed it, but its a familiar name to anyone versed in the local history), the family that practically ruled Iran before the revolution - his grandfather was the prime minister, his dad was a general or something of the army, his uncle controlled some other big thing, and the best friend of his uncle was supreme commander of the airforce, etc. so on and so forth. If you have any questions (serious ones, and do your research before hand, I won't bother my friend with stoopid questions), post em here and PM me with em and I'll ask him when I get back to school after Christmas...
