[quote=Breukelen advocaat]Although I do not care for any religions, it's undeniable that the Jews have done a lot of good for the world, and they've been in the Middle East for a very long time. I don't happen to think that it's a very good idea to be surrounded by people that hate you, for religious reasons, but they've been through worse.

America, and much of Western Europe, feels that Israel is an ally in this region - and after the historic treatment that the Jews have had over the centuries, including the Holocaust and other genocide in places other than Israel, I can't blame them for taking advantage of the support and opportunities.


I agree...The surrounding 22 Arab countries are 640 times larger than our ally,Israel...Israel must have our support to defend itself from people whose favorite lines are "death to Israel","death to America",and "God is great"...
My father(RIP),believed in Israel's right to exist...He donated a Luger he brought back from WWII to Israel during their struggle to become or remain a state...He was from Breukelen also...
The Israeli's irrigated a sandy desert and turned it into paradise...
