    I voted for him to actually get us out of Afghanistan and not screw anything else up. He delivered on the first, and he hasn’t yet screwed up the second yet. He should be focused on getting a budget passed, not throwing money around.

    Israel is fine. Just keep ships nearby, but don’t do anything, that’s all I want. If things start to get out of hand, then we can talk. Until then, have diplomats work toward peace talks. Hamas probably won’t talk, but maybe Fatah will.

      I was almost listening to you and then said “Israel is fine”.

      Then heaped on rhetoric to preserve Israel’s effort to displace, unto extermination, the people of Palestine.

      Fuck you.

        Then you misunderstood my comment.

        I believe Israel and Palestine should exist, and I don’t think the US coming in on Gaza’s side would ever happen. That’s why I think the US should maintain a presence, but not come to the direct aid of Israel, but stay to deter other countries like Iran from joining (i.e. to prevent the war from escalating further). The US should also remain to keep a corridor open for humanitarian aid for Gaza.

        Also, I would very much like to see Hamas removed, but I don’t want to see the Palestinians killed en masse. So the US should remain to gather information, help funnel humanitarian aid, and deter other powers from joining, but they should not aid Israel.
