and join the arabs against israelpicture thisthe new president comes out and says "ok. past us administrations were wrong. were not backing israel anymore" and started working pro-palastinians and pro islam. it would be in our best interest to become allies with the arabs instead of the jews. we give them a little military aid to = the jews and then take a hands off aproach and let them settle things. we would never have to worry about terrorism or oil prices again.

Yeah all we'd have to do is look at ourselves in the mirror everyday
7/14/2006 11:42:25 PM
i know right!! we'd finnally be able to for the first time in 50 years
7/14/2006 11:44:14 PM
Or you know, we could just stay out of it entirely. I mean, if we're going to shift foreign policy it should be away from entangling ourselves with other nations.
7/15/2006 12:34:15 AM
yes, a US president will do that, and that's all she wrote

Well, Thomas Jefferson was once President and he said "peace, commerce, and honest friendship with all nations, entangling alliances with none."Jefferson for President!!!

Not terrisim or oil prices. Getting in bed with someone who believes they should rule you, and if you dont convert you should pay a religious tax....that would be priceless.

^^but i think this would be big enough for political forgiveness between governments. of course there would still be hatred and anemosity amongst the people but thats life.[Edited on July 16, 2006 at 12:51 AM. Reason : i]

join enemies of the U.S. against our only ally left in the Middle East? Sounds like a plan buddy.. not
7/16/2006 3:16:12 AM
^this plan would ally us with the rest of the middle east. israel would be our only rival (not even enemy)

^not just a withdrawal. give actual aid to these countries to level the playing field.
7/16/2006 1:15:52 PM
We DO give them aid

^^ You completely underestimate the depth of animosity between Islamic fundamentalists and the infidels. This whole thing did not start in 1948.[Edited on July 16, 2006 at 1:25 PM. Reason : ^^]

Thanks for slyly pointing out that our founding fathers were diests.
7/16/2006 4:35:05 PM
...Theist?
7/16/2006 4:45:16 PM
Well Jefferson was a deist.I was just pointing out his somewhat off topic statement.
7/16/2006 5:40:03 PM
John Adams was a Unitarian. Jefferson once wrote to him about his wishes to join such a deistic church. Since there was no UU church in Virginia at the time, Jefferson attended an Episcopal one in the meantime.So yes, Adams and Jefferson were Unitarian deists, much like Thoreau.

and the fact that we pretty much dominate their only major export which provides them with all their money.Its a matter of pride.
7/16/2006 5:53:36 PM
ya but thats not enough hate for them to attack us. if it wasnt for israel and that shah bullshit in iran there wouldn't be islamic attacks on american soil.
7/16/2006 5:55:49 PM
Did Kanye West tell you that? Or was it Hitler?

If you think our support of Israel is the only reason they want to kill us, you're stupid.They hate the entire Western world, see Spain bombings, and bombings against pro-Western arab countries for example

Look, Islamic fundamentalists wanted to fuck up NORWAY, for Christ's sake. It's fucking NORWAY. Anyone who gets pissed enough at them to want to wage a jihad needs to be kept in check a bit.That's like wanting to fight the Beaver. If that thought ever crosses your mind, you need to chill out.
7/16/2006 10:18:58 PM
i dunnoi often dream of fucking up The Beav.like, you know, in a baseball bat sort of way.
