My countrymen have been involved physically in Mid east peace for probably 50 years. Your "getting involved" in the Isreali occupation of Palistine by providing helicopter gunships.
Isreals problem for the last 25 years has not been a human wave of syrians or egyptians. Its been Isreal stealing land year after year from the palistinians. Outside the lawfull borders established when Isreal was founded by UN mandate.
How do you reconcile that Toad? You always ignore it and drag these discussions to something else. But Isreal has created its own security situation. And the US could solve it in a pen stroke.
'if you do not pull out of the palistinian territories and return soveriegnty to the Palistinians as was done for you..we will not send you any more military assistance. If you still persist in oppressing those people we will put in place UN trade sanctions."
Or even easier. get less involved and stop vetoing the worlds attempts to reign in Isreal.
Hi pongo.
belive it or not most of the israelies support the idea of getting out of MOST of the occupied territories.
but you must understand that it is not that simple and it will take much more then a "pen stroke".
if we will pull out of the occupied territories it will create several potentional catastrophic results. this is why it takes so much time and must be taken one small step at a time.
there are too many fanatics and just plain morons on both sides that acn screw this all procces.
condemn us, frankly i dont care. what the army is doing in thwe occupied territories saves dozens of people a day.
lastly- feel free to correct my horrible spelling and grammer
