time they are criticized the phony cry 'Anti Semitism' is heard. It's a failed strategy. It wouldn't work for Germany, Britian, Ireland, Italy, The US etc. Why do you think that this is Israel's response to every news report that is not favorable to them?? If they have a case, which apparently they don't which is why they resort to this tactic.

Let them respond honestly to the criticisms or stop with the whining that is nothing more than an attempt to distract. And it isn't working.

Either they are willing to act like a Sovereign Democratic Nation, or cry wolf each time they are under fire, for legitimate reasons, and be viewed as insignificant as far as their views on International affairs.

Some things just grow so old, they fade and disintegrate and are no longer relevant. The 'anti-Semitic' cries out lived their shelf life many moons ago when it comes to these issues.

It is no secret that Israel is pushing for this invasion. It is also no secret that they are not part of the US and their opinions mean zilch to the American people who do not want their military used in these political war games anymore.

If Israel has some issues with Syria, let them handle it themselves. It is not our fight, we have enough fights of our own and need to get the hell out of all these countries we are currently invading, stop killing their citizens and come home where we have more than enough of our problems to spend money on.
