I take issue with a lot of Israel's policies; (I am also familiar with the USS Liberty allegations; which are unproven).
I am baffled as to why we have not forced Israel to accept UN Resolution 242, which allowed for a separate Jewish, as well as a Palestinian State. Having said all of the above, Israel is still an ally of the United States, and a Western style democracy. Whether you like it, or don't like it. As I have said on numerous occasions to you, in a number of discussions, the Jews and Israel are not the enemy right now, the fanatical Muslims and the Nation-States that they control are, and you continously miss the big picture on this issue. Again, there is a big divergence of opinion between the minority of Ron Paul supporters, who believe that it is interventionist to, "Carry A Big Stick"; I see nothing at all wrong with this aspect of our foreign policy, I don't believe that we have been interventionists for the most part in the Middle East Region, and history proves me out. Just like the example of Paul claiming that we were at war with Iran in 1953, because we supported the winning coup that overthrew a corrupt government, (and replaced it with another corrupt government, *e.g*.; the Shah of Iran). Where Paul sees error with this action, I don't, and neither do most of Americans.
