Reply #5: About as moving as a bowel movement... [View All]

Seriously, there's nothing moving about a swag of empty rhetoric, which is all Kerry's words were. This 'the cause of Israel is the cause of America' nonsense does make it clear that if the cause of Israel is to continue to oppress and kill Palestinians, to blatantly violate human rights and to refuse the right of self-determination to the Palestinians, then that's what America's cause is too, and we're all supposed to look the other way and try to pretend that America's cause is all that is good and pure....

Oh, so if the vast majority in the political arena take a particular stance, then that means it's the correct position for the US to take? So, why was invading Iraq the correct position for the US to take? Also, I don't think anyone, political or otherwise, who supports continuing the occupation, pretending that the only victims in the conflict are Israelis, and who expresses unquestioning support of the policies of the Israeli govt is pro-Israel at all. The only thing they support is pro-violence and pro-bloodshed as far as I'm concerned...
