Anyone wonder why Israel is so hated over there? Maybe because it's like having the Great Satan living in their back yard. I have spoken with many Israelis, and they are just like us...culture, economic structure, etc..
What self respecting raghead wants a little America within spitting distance? Woe be to the idiots who tweak the Israelis nose.... Israel is the preiminent military power in the Middle East, and as such provides a stability that our State Department can only dream of..... Keeping Iran off balance, along with Syria, goes a long long way to ensure our global interests are secure.
