UK's part in WWII and WWI. UK in Iraq/Afghan. Funding of Syrian rebels. The crimes they commit to their own people.

Egypt, I don't know much about them, but I could surely research and find out. I think they do some protecting or blockading of supplies to Palestine, not sure though.
And I don't know their history very well.

Russia not sure either, I think I like what Putin is doing for the most part. USSR different story.

So if all these nations are "terrorist nations" what makes Israel different. What's Israel done which is worse than, say, 'murica.

[paintpooper]

It is much more blatant with it's terrorism. Constant killing of Palestinians and taking of their lands, 911, USS Liberty, attacking it's neighbors.

I wouldn't say it is much worse then the USA as it tells the USA what to do, USA also gives them tons of money and weapons and aid. They would be nothing without USA and other countries giving them things.

I mean USA has never air striked Mexico or Canada.

9/11 aside for a minute, murica is far more militaristic and has killed many, many times more civilians in the course of its recent military adventurism. By several orders of magnitude.

I don't seem to detect a proportionate degree of venom aimed at them...

No, but it has "striked" Pakistan. Continues to do so. Is that more forgivable because it's further away?

[paintpooper]

The USA needs to stop, stop the wars, stop everything. But wars like Iraq and Afghanistan, were wanted by Israel. They use the USA as their military power. Those types of wars are very favorable for Israel. Their tricks don't always work, they wish we would have attacked Syria and Iran by now.

USA needs to concentrate on itself. Not easy when you have many dual Israeli citizens in government, like Rahm Emanual. Giant PAC's like AIPAC.

So, in a nutshell, the bad stuff murica does is Israels fault?

[paintpooper]

Not entirely. Some of it yes. USA needs to be independent on it's decisions and do thing's in it's best interest not other nations. Concentrate on domestic issues not other peoples foreign problems.

Just as long as we know who to scapegoat, we'll be fine.

[Darth]

Could you go on all day about the crimes of the UK?

UK's part in WWII...

Yeah what a bunch of fascists getting involved in that, was none of their business, tut tut.

Who watches news on TV? What is this, the 20th century?

I get my news from a bunch of sources, some more objective than others. It's all going to filter through both my biases and my skepticism.
