Lee, you have this thing about anyone trying to _demonstrate_ the
evils of Islam as being a thinly disguised racist. I don't agree
with you. But let me ask you a different question. If Geert Wilders
is really an _enemy_ of the Jewish People and of Israel, _who_, in
your opinion, are the _friends_?

We don't really have any friends. We have occasional allies who play
us off against others when it's convenient.

I would challenge that statement. The US has been a friend from day
one. Yes, friends have disagreements and arguments, but the US is still
a friend.

Really? Did not Roosevelt turn away the German Jewish refugees on the
MS St. Louis in 1939? Is antisemitism unknown in the US? Do
President Obama's Middle East policies favour Israel?

Day one = establishment of the state of Israel. Yes, Roosevelt not only did that, he didn't bomb the rail lines to the concentration camps.


Let's not forget that throughout the Cold War, US support for Israel
was there to counteract Soviet support for Arab states in what is a
strategic region and that current support for Israel (such as it is)
is merely an extrapolation of that policy.

Another example of "Do something I like it is because it is convenient for you. Do something I don't like it is because you really hate me".
