Oh, of course. All of our problems have been caused by Israel. It seems some can not see through their anti-Semitic fog.
www.vccafe.com...
Israel is a small country with seven million people, mostly unfriendly neighbors, and relatively high taxes. So why does it have the second-largest concentration of startups per capita after Silicon Valley? Jon says the two places are more similar than one would think.
Both Sillicon Valley and Israel share energized entrepreneurial spirit, informal work atmosphere, pioneering risk-taking ethos and a large number of high-quality immigrants.
400 Israeli start ups emerge annually, more than any European country.
The number of funded startups has doubled since 2000.
Next to the US, Israel has more stocks traded on NASDAQ than any other country. High tech (which is minimally vulnerable to terrorism and political instability) accounts to 50% of Israel’s exports – about $15BN annually.
Israeli companies have easier access to Asian markets, since they are not perceived as a commercial threat.

Look friend once again, being a good American is about SUPPORTING AMERICA not other NATIONS, have you never read the what our founding fathers wanted.
Did you never read George Washingtion's farewell address?
NO FOREIGN ENTANGLEMENTS and ISRAEL AND IRAN are foreign nations.
Good Americans follow the principals of America.
Good Americans stand up to people who pretend to be Americans and tell them THAT's NOT AMERICAN.
We have no business supporting Iran or Israel, and you have no business pretending you know what's good for America when once again you sing blue and white, and not Red, White and Blue.
This is America friend.
Israel is over there, it is not America, it is not part of America, America owes it nothing, and demanding America's good will and American's good will is not a way to earn good will.

Go ahead. Someone who thinks Israel was behind 9/11 and that it would be in the best interest of the US to shoot down Israeli planes clearly has no basis in reality, or understanding of foreign policy.

The US never had "good will" in the Middle East. The US has been manipulating the Mid-East just like the UK and other European Powers since the turn of the last century.
BTW, I like Seseme Street, you probably like the Hamas version where Big Bird kills Jews.

I will say this... Israel would beat the USA if it came down to a heads up war. I don't know how, but it is a famous prophecy that the Nations of the World would attack Israel.
