- MarkEarhart, on 07/09/2008, -1/+7I'm damn sick and tired of special interest groups whose allegiance is to foreign governments or anything besides the protection and prosperity of ALL Americans. I couldn't even read all of the *****, but I've heard it all before. What the ***** do we need AIPAC for. Why the Hell should we wipe Israel's ass for them decade after decade? I think anything beyond a general protest in strategic areas such as outside government offices using signs and passing out literature should be illegal. No group should be allowed to use their money and power to have a damn convention. My voice of concern is just as important, and more important than non citizens, of anyone involved in AIPAC or La Raza, or any of the other lobbying groups. I can't get Presidential candidates and members of Congress to meet with me. Why the ***** should they meet with those ass holes whose desire is to dominate America and our domestic and foreign policy?
Before you call me a racist anti-Semite, I am friends with an ethnic Jewish couple who have gone to a lot of trouble to help me. They have no superiority complex and would help anyone in need. In fact the subject of Iraq came up not long ago and I said we needed to get out immediately, and she commented that we owed them a great deal for the mass murder and infrastructure damage we have done there. Both of them are blind. She was a paralegal then decided to run her own lunch counter in a TVA building. She is a real gourmet, and had daily specials. I think everyone was sorry to see her sell the business because they were left with deep fried frozen foods and hamburgers.
He has a degree in British Literature, struggles with depression, but runs his own vending business which is successful. They raised three kids, all of them have college degrees and are responsible caring people. To top it all off they adopted their grandson when their oldest daughter went off to an Ivy League school and wound up pregnant. He is 11 or 12 now and everyone is doing quite well. They amaze me at what they can do. She used to have some peripheral vision, now that is gone. She still cooks feasts on Holidays and invites me over. He has been blind from birth, is a dedicated Christian (not the Hell fire and brimstone sort, just a caring Bible scholar who would do anything to help anyone), he is a ham radio operator, a computer genius, their accomplishments and abilities never cease to amaze me. They are very down to earth people. My opinion of others is based on their behavior rather than their race.
Anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism are two completely different things. - yellowcakewalk, on 07/09/2008, -1/+2We were there ... to protest the *****

"If the AIPAC legions were somehow convinced that Jews will only be safe in the Middle East if the Arabs among them were also safe—without checkpoints, without a siege, with the dignity and freedom that Jews have had in the West—all these arrayed powers might then be directed to a larger idea of family and produce a miracle at last."
The same could be said for Americans, who also need to realize that the Golden Rule will keep them safer than a crumbling military empire.
