Report: Israel urges West to back Egypt's military

49. I know Shira I know.

I just don't take you too seriously.
1. You know what I'm talking about but now your acting brand new.
2. I can have an opinion on anything I want too.
3. I lack faith remember. I'm an athiest.
4. Palestine's future progressivity is not an issue for me. My political ideology may not be what the people there want. They have to live there I don't.
5. Don't tell me about genuine racism. I've experienced enough of it to know what it looks like. I lived in neo naziville for a while. Besides this is America, a country founded on the backs of my ancestors. Land stolen from my other ancestors. We're still fighting voter ID today. My congressman calls people wetbacks.
6. In this particular forum I am only going to talk about Israel and/or Palestine. No Syria. No Egypt.
7. I'm not a part of an anti Israel movement.
8. I think we should stop trying so hard and spending so much money to remake other countries in our own image. We need to be repairing our own democracy. We have problems here in our country that we whitewash, ignore and explain away. Why should they listen to us? And be like us? We're not perfect and we have different ways of seeing the world. Change comes from within. Given enough time they'll figure out the right way to govern, by trial and error like us. We had a civil war. We had slavery. We had a genocide of native populations. We had the middle passage. It took a long time for us to get to where we are as a country it will take a long time for them as well.
Why should they not be given the opportunity to try to self govern? How are we more deserving of freedom?
