Obama needs to seriously and strongly challenge and bring a halt to Israel's hold over the US. Money and votes to our elected officials from AIPAC are Israel's weapons as they control the US support to the only democracy in the middle east. It's clear that Israel's benefits from US support much more that the US benefits from theirs.
US aid to Israel includes over 3,2 billion dollars in military aid yearly ...that's right 3.2 billion That does not include additional aid, millions of dollars to assist Israel! One has to wonder why Israel receives aid when they are not a third world country? Where does this benefit our country? It doesn't seem to add up...even though numbers are involved.
"Stand by your friend" is the US motto where Israel is concerned.....it doesn't seem to matter what Israeli says or does; they can count on the US support and protection. They can break the International Rules of Iaw during their Occupation of the West Bank and Gaza. The law says an occupying country may not populate the occupied territory by moving people into that land.
What does Israel do? They encourage this practice. They establish settlements through out the West Bank...approving the addition of more "illegal aliens" daily. What does President Obama say? "Stop building settlements" What does Israel do? They continue to build more settlements.....even announcing an expansion the day before Vice-president Biden is to arrive for a visit. Does that show respect for your best friend? How about for respect and appreciation for the country who gives you billions of dollars in aid? Isn't that just a tad defiant? Yet the US receives this type treatment consistently from Israel and does nothing publicly to show anger...let alone displeasure. This does nothing for the US image throughout the world. Other countries wonder about the US.
When are elected officials and their staff going to put the USA needs and interests before those of Israel.We Americans need a wake-up-call!
Who do I have a problem with? Israel and the Israeli government! It's one country's exploitation of another country.....Israel exploiting the USA! It's one country's blatant discrimination, inhuman treatment and military actions against another country.... Israel's deplorable and evil treatment of Palestine and Palestinians.

Amen-Ra to that! Thank you for being brave enough to state the blatantly obvious. I stumbled upon this blog, and although I don't "follow" it, I do want you to know that I appreciate what you have done (to even go there and see for yourself), and are doing to raise awareness. If no one tells, no one will know, so even if it feels like your efforts are in vain, they are not. Keep up the good work and your efforts. Lots of love and thanks. :)
