in the government are more concerned about Israel's interests than America's. Not bashing Israel. Bashing people who think of a foreign entity before their own, for whatever reason. Witness Lieberman or Emanuel. Or witness the "end of times" people. If those interests fall in line with America's then fine, if not, not so fine.

Iran is sovereign country and has the same rights as all sovereign countries. Our government is bought and paid for. Correct. It is time for some sanity to fall in line. Saudi Arabian people were the people who attacked the USA and were financed by Saudis on 9/11. But who did we blame? We blamed who Israel's supporters told us to, because it fell into their political line. Iraq was a disaster and created more terrorists than we ever could have terminated. Same with Afghanistan. Who in history has ever defeated Afghanistan? No one.

I personally don't think we will ever be on the right side until we are on our side. Period.
