    LoL!

    I notice that in this particular Israel thread, by the eighth post someone had already made the Nazi/holocaust reference (with the Palestinians as the innocent victims of genocide, of course), and by the 10th post the U.S. had been blamed for the situation.

    Priceless. That must be a new frickin' record for the Backroom.

    Actually, its not a record considering most threads START with blaming everything on the US or "Zionism"...

    In what possible way could the US not be blamed for the current situation?

    We didn't lead the Jewish people to a homeland ordained by God.

    Moses did.
    Moses wasn't American.
    US cannot be blamed for Moses leading the Jews into Israel.
    US can't be blamed for setting Israel up.
    QED - US can't be blamed for the current conflict between Palestinians and Israelis.

    I ask because it's usually something like that which causes outbursts like this, needless to say I dissagree completely.

    Well, at least, if nothing else, the latest assault can be blamed onto US for their GWBush's warmonging Big Israel model of governing which obviously expressed that they'll be backing Israel's actions. So before Obama takes the charge, Israel will be doing her "best" over there.

    Oh now come on, don't tell me what a state's actions has to do with another's approval, it's Middle East -a playground for US.

    The Jews were booted out by the Romans. They were let back in during the 1930's and promptly destabilised the region. The Brits were not happy about the numbers going to the region, and managed the rather obvious conclusion that it would cause trouble.

    Which nation backed them returning? Erm...
    They bombed the rulers of the land - effectively acting as terrorists. Which nation didn't seem to mind this? Erm...

    Israel is and always was a American puppet. It would implode in under a year left to its own devices. I understand the need for a regional "bag man" who can do all the unpleasant jobs with cast iron deniability, but at least acknowledge this.

    I would have been happier to see a nation of palestine, but seeing as that didn't happen i will back israel to the hilt against those groups that wish to destroy a nation state.

    I will hold you to that, and i am fairly certain you will be seen to be dead wrong. come the 30th Dec 2009 israel will not only exist but be seen to be a fundamentally 'healthy' sovereign nation.

    Apologies, I must have written poorly.

    By existing on its own, I mean without the massive aid from America, the frequent vetos in the UN etc etc. I do not imagine that this is going to fundamentally change any time soon merely as the President has changed.
