Iran is an enemy of both Saudi Arabia and Israel.

That doesn’t make them “buddies.”

Iran also says it will wipe out the US.

I don’t want to get involved in the tit for tat here, because I have too much of a headache to read the article and make a valid statement, but your comment brought something to mind. Trump is an intense hands on controller of his business empire, and rightly so he is very successful, how is he going to be able to stand not being allowed to make a single decision concerning his empire for four long years?

He spoke about not being sure a peace deal could be worked out among the two as the Palestinians are raised to hate Israel.

Why not stand against those who "raise their next generation to hate"?

The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.

He doesn’t want to get into it.

Really.

Donald, if you were to become President, you would be in it. No choice. Comes with the job, along with a lot of other troubling things.

See, you don’t get a choice. You don’t call the shots. You manage as best you can, but you take what is thrown at you. You deal with it.

And if you’re not willing to do that, you need to go back to the penthouse.

Well, that's another huge black mark against Trump in my book.

Did you listen to what he actually said, or are you merely reacting to what a leftist publication says he said?

I read what he said. I didn’t understand a word of it. It read like incoherent rambling.

Can anyone translate Trumpise?

The Telegraph UK is strongly anti Israel.

Look at the adjectives they attach to each of their mentions of Israel:

fury

strident

And what exactly could we do as a country to prevent this? Answer....nothing. Ideas?

It’s been said that EVERY human invention has had its roots in a Jewish intuition.

Even if they weren’t directly attributed with the invention, most in the history of science have had their origins from a Hebrew mind.

Go figure.

Israel is a secular state that has utterly nothing to do with the Israel from the Bible. They don't even permit Christian missionaries there.

If anyone turned predators loose on a populace, do you think they would tolerate people being taken? Are poachers permitted in national parks? Why should Israel, a JEWISH state, allow missionaries to try and steal precious Jewish souls by converting them to non-Jews? As is usual with you, you are ignorant about Israel as well.

Even non-observant Jews there have a very profound love of the land and its history. They point out this archaeological site and that site of a famous synagogue with reverence and pride. There are many many observant Jews living in Israel, more and more immigrating there from the U.S. and from hostile countries in Europe. They LIVE the "Bible", the Torah. Every single aspect of observant Jewish life is dictated by the Torah. So your claim that Israel has "utterly nothing to do with the Israel from the bible" is a truckload of sheer baloney. Treif baloney at that.

As for immigration, Israel is a small country. Its main reason for existence is to be a homeland for Jews. Obviously, with indiscriminate immigration of non-Jews, this small nation would soon be overwhelmed with non-Jews who would then dilute the unique character of the Jewish state. Nevertheless, Israel has admitted hundreds of non-Jews in vetted asylum cases when the immigrants' lives were in dire peril in their native countries.

So go peddle your vile lies about Israel (Boo-hoo, they won't let us change them from Jews to non-Jews, can you imagine, boo-hoo) somewhere else. You are a pathetic "ambassador" for your supposed cause.

I care about our Border, I care about unfair Trade, I care about Corruption. Since I don’t live in some End Times Fantasy, I think Israel should fight its own battles.

Not give aid to those that do, and not give aid to those who aid them.

Support those who are attacked by the policy (Israel).

Collect evidence and present at the UN to keep them in a defensive posture there. Use it as a bully pulpit.

That’s just off the top of my head at bedtime. I am sure there are more and better ideas out there.
