How many agencies are reporting, analyzing, and writing editorials on Iran's submission of Israeli leaders to Interpol for war crimes? Maybe 25% of the real news with the rest talking about what others have written. I can point to lots of places where anti-Israel media bias is shown but it is not accepted by all. I'm not sure what you're referring to regarding the Saudi lobby and > why that has anything to do with reporting on Israel. A lot of what we do in the middle east concerning Israel is affected by the Saudi lobby. If we really supported Israel to the degree that others say we do we would not be on their case all the time to open borders where it is know that terrorists import weapons. We would not be forcing them to go forward with peace plans where the other side has not fulfilled their part of the basics. Etc etc etc. I'm not saying Israel is a model of saintly hood but we hold them to a total different standard than anyone else and someone is pushing that standard. The state department has some goal that is not pro-Israel and their connection to Saudi Arabia is documented. Also, Middle East is more than Israel and Palestine. Lest you forget, > the US is engaged in a very active war there in a little place called > Iraq. > THANK YOU!!!! Everyone says that 'fixing' Israel will lead to peace. I call bullshit on that. Israel is not the reason for Pakistan accepting home grown terrorist groups. It is not the reason for Iran's exporting of terror and seeking the bomb. It is not the cause of Saudi export of religious intolerance, funding of terror or religious discrimination. It is not the cause of Syria trying to control and take over Lebanon. It has nothing to do with the Kurds. It is not the cause of sectarian violence in Iraq and it is very arguable that it even had more than a word to do with the invasion of Iraq. Forget Israel. If we do that then we'll see that it is not the linchpin of the middle east and that the conflict there is minuscule in comparison to the real ones. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:290364 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
