Israel to get billions of US$ in aid

category national | miscellaneous | news report author Thursday March 20, 2003 16:32author by angry

The BBC is reporting that the US has offered $10bn in aid to help Israel out of the worst economic crisis since the country was created. They ignore UN resolution 242 for 30 years and they get aid. Why have they not been punished for their unending human rights abuses? Full story from the BBC is here - http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/business/2867619.stm The US government is hypocritical in the extreme. They preach democracy and justice, but all they care about is themselves.

Israel owns the United Snakes. Why shouldn't the rednecks pay for the chosen race's ethnic cleansing program in the "Holy Land"? Afterall didn't Sharon get the big dumb galoots to fight its proxy war with the Baghdad bogeyman for him?

It's God's will as Dubya would say.

Where did I make reference to the Jewish faith or people? The simple fact is, I didn't. I have several Jewish friends, both in Israel and the US who would agree with me. Are they anti-semites as well?

The last thing I am is anti-semitic, believe me.

The point I was trying to make was that the US is attacking, then placing embargoes with the rest of the UN, and then attacking Iraq again for acting in defiance of UN resolutions, and Israel, while doing the same is rewarded by the US. Have you not heard of UN Resolution 242?

The anti-Israeli stance = anti-semitism stance is very old, and very tired. All I want is justice.
As well as being 6 years out of date, all your facts do is merely enforce my point.

What did everyone have their sense of humour removed today.

Look up irony, satire, and sarcasm in a big dictionary, and then wack yourself on the head a few times with it.

Idiot.

$10B will pay for the concentration camps the Israelis are building in the West Bank and Gaza, where they will permanently wall in the Palestinian like the Nazi's did in the Warsaw Ghetto.

Why is Gaza called a 'strip' instead of what it is, a ghetto?
