A question for the Americans..

Never!

No such thing as "closet ally" of the people. For the people, all 350,000,000 of us, everyone is our ally as long as they are good people. That includes Jewish people, Israelis, Iranian people, and Muslims. Myself I have close Jewish friends, and close Muslim friends, and I am a Christian. I would do just about anything for any of those friends if they asked. Give them money, food, watch their children, raise their children, give them a place to live.

As for the scum that hijacked our leadership positions in government, they can say what they want, and people can believe them if they wish, as long as they don't mind listening to repetitive liars.

Rise above these things my friend from afar, for soon all the evil will be over.

I have seen absolutely no exhibition of Judeo-Christian values from you based on your posts. Love thy enemies, do not nuke them.

From all the responses i have, some of the Americans really show to be very educated and not mind-controlled by their Media.

Unfortunately some talk as if they are 5 years old.

This could be. But for people to single out the jewish people as being "bad" is just ignorant

what a misconception

Judaism
Christianity
Islam

were all created from the same mold
and each for a specific purpose.

Prophet Muhammad was trained by
the Roman Catholic church just
to target middle east cultures.

Roman Emperor Constantine
was an ancient Karl Rove.
He attached zionism to religion
and made religious slaves of
Roman citizens.

Here we are 17 centuries later
following the same blueprint.
Just with bigger guns.

I have no idea why we are Israel's "closest ally". It doesn't even make sense.

Please do explain more..

see OP
not all Americans are stupid idiots.

there are just some things we can do
nothing about.

I understand. Thank you for commenting!

you're most welcome :)

I do not believe we know the real enemy. I know it is not you and I know it is not me. It is always simply "them". We do not know their names, for they are never spoken. We do not know their faces, for they are never seen. We can recognize their actions, but only after it is too late. How do we expose the wizard behind the curtain?

That's where you're wrong Ishtar! Saudi Arabia has donated nearly $80 Billion to the US political machine over the last ten years. Israel has donated some $7 Billion over that same time. Based off of those numbers, who controls govt policy?

It's time for you to wake up my friend. America didn't go to war with iraq because of Israel's insistence. We warred with Iraq to benefit Saudi Arabia and the banksters.
Why do you think the shit is gonna hit the fan with Iran? Not because of the Israelis! It's because the Shiites are a threat to Saudi Arabia and the banksters.

One phrase constantly spoken in America is, "Follow the money". We aren't going to war because of a nuclear bomb. We are going because certain unsavory people want to control their money or gain a greater share of the pie.
That's the truth, Mo!
Israel is like the neighbor's kid that we have to walk to school every day to keep him from getting beat up!

You're like a NWO poet!

Well said.

Good post. Very thought provoking. I believe there is a lot of truth in this post.

Argument of whether they are technically the closest ally or not aside, my opinion is that the Israeli-US allegiance in it's current form is mere sustenance of a status quo forged decades ago.

That status quo involves military and monetary handshakes in exchange for unilateral operation of similar political fronts in differing geographic and religious regions. Same politics; different methods/countries. Divide and conquer in it's most plain form.

Dissolving the alliance and status quo would be tantamount to the US abandoning their interests in the Middle East.

I am of the personal opinion that we ought not to have interests in the Middle East at this time due to a lack of interest/initiative in fixing our own problems. I am not a good little sheep that tries to tackle problems by glossing over the severity of them and applying band-aids today that will fall off tomorrow.

But I'm not your average American, and yes, that is a very real problem for the rest of the world.

Alliances should be solely for economic purposes IMO. No country has any business 'helping' any other country when it comes to issues of social, religious, or cultural nature.

Every country should be granted the freedom and opportunity to forge for itself, BY ITSELF, the type of country it wishes to be.

My friend most americans would give there shirt off their back for you.. However the elected officials of this country are foriegn to us and I feel that you "should not trust them" because as a citizen of the U.S.A we do not either.. Empower yourself and rely on no one..

True indeed. Thank you i enjoyed your comment, very intelligent.

Interesting thread.

Good to see most here engaging in discussion rather than abusive assumpition.

Turkey, I would like you to understand, we as a country used to know what value was. We fought and earned our freedom for ourselves. It wasn't handed to us from some all powerfull "God Government". We understood that value and freedom was earned through sacrifice and hard work, being accountable successes and failures.. We have lost Value in this country through entitlement and dependency.. So to assume that this government values you or anything would be a grave error..

OP, was my post like a brick being slammed into your head? Certainly you have an opinion on this yet you do not comment?
How convenient for you to continue to chastise the Israelis when I spelled it out for you as to who the real power brokers are.
Do you not want to see the light? I'm trying to help you enter a new level of consciousness but I assume you don't want to walk down that path being where you are.
The truth is out there for you to see. You just have to open your eyes to view it.

Shalom!

Go to hell you piece of Aussie Vege-Mite!

Just joking Around dude! Relax! You're my brother from another mother!

They are human beings, just like me. I love them, and wish them well. There are however some problematic one's who need to cease what they are doing immediately. I do not wish any harm on the Israelis, I just want the bullshit political games to stop.

How much money do we give to Israel each year?
How much money do we give to the UK each year? (hint: not much, if any)

UK is our #1 ally, but Israel gets the dough, which by the US gooberment definition means Israel is our #1 friend.

Seems that OP was shut down! How about this OP?
