israel flag The American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) Policy Conference took place this week in Washington, D.C., and thousands of participants from all 50 states flooded the capital to participate in conversation with other pro-Israel supporters. Attendees also got to hear from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, and our own President Obama about what they would do in the face of a nuclear Iran.

Netanyahu spoke on Monday and said,

Meanwhile, satellite images released on Wednesday seem to show evidence of a cleanup at an Iranian military facility. Nuclear experts accredited to the International Atomic Energy Agency say the images indicate a possible cleanup of radioactive traces left by a nuclear-weapon trigger.

So maybe Iran

I'm sorry. But whaaa? Isreal believes in religious freedom? Sure, as long as you're not a Palestinian. Thank goodness there's not a Cowboy in the Oval Office anymore, ready to lead the troops to slaughter for more imaginary WMDs. Thank the FSM that the President has a level head and wants to discuss this thoroughly before pulling the trigger.

I stand with Israel. Obama's actions toward Netanyahu have been shameful and embarrassing. And his attitude towards Israel is naive and dangerous. His placating Iran is also embarrassing and has gained the U.S. absolutely nothing, but has encouraged and emboldened our enemies.

obama + Clinton in State Department = FAIL

Israel needs to fight its own battles. We need to worry about us.

Ok. So let me get this straight. It is the opinion that we should go to war with Iran? Because they MAY be developing nuclear weapons. Hmmmmm does this sound familiar to anyone? While I do NOT agree with anything that Iran does I FULLY support a president who is not willing to just jump because Israel says to. Going to war with Iran should be a last resort. But then if we do go to war then all you conservatives can forget that you supported it and cry foul on Obama and bitch about the gas prices going up and blah blah blah.

Typical republican answer: WAR WAR WAR. Thank god we don't have someone like that in office. Thank god that we have someone with common sense who practices restraint and unwavering belief that war is NOT the answer to every problem on the planet..

Procrastamomma don't worry about bills.. if she can't find anything to agree with her leader (miss Erikson) about.. she just avoids the issue and tries to diss someone. "Create a diversion and no one will talk about how ridiculous this article is!!!!" Good idea!!

Procrast.... Your comment is... Stupid. Israel does have freedom of religion. Ask the Israeli Arabs for example. The issue with the Palestinians is not a religious one. Atleast not on Israel's side. And just in case you're confused... Palestinian
