JT_Lancer, you obviously dont know that Muslims destruction of Americans and America started well before sep 11th..in fact at least 20 years before and America in its wisdom for then did nothing, perhaps you should read up on some of the attrocities done against Americans which has killed thousands before you say to let aid not go to Israel.. perhaps if we stopped buying oil from Muslims countries so as they cannot aquire all these weapons we might be far better off.
It is Israel which has given the world many of its medical miracles and other great inventions. Perhaps you should read what is going on out there before you throw hatred towards Israel..

The Democratic party decided not to support Joe Lieberman in his last bid for the Senate elections. He won only because Connecticut has more independent voters than democrats and republicans. He was re-elected because of independent voters. That makes him a free agent. He can support either side now that his own party left him hanging.

Ok, ok let me get this straight. Muslims come into a free Israel, set off bombs killing hundreds of babies, children women and men every week, and then when they take a prisoner they have to say, Please Mr Prisoner please tell us all your secrets before one of your people kill more of our babies..

Thank you pilgrimsprog. Ask any Marine. It is ok to shave your head, require you to wear a dress uniform that is too tight, march you until you are ready to drop, and belittle you until your will is broken. Do the same to an enemy hell-bent on destroying you and your way of life and it is torture. Get real!

US aid to Israel makes Americans less safe and poorer as a result.

END ALL FOREIGN AID TO ISRAEL!

How about Joe Lieberman..he ran with Al Gore in 2000 on the Democratic Ticket...now he is right by the side of GrandPa McCain...Talking about being two faced...He is only concerned with what benefits Israel.

All you have to do is visit the former Israeli prison they abandonned upon leaving Lebanon the first time, and talk to some of Israel''s victims there to know that they do more than psychological torture...These vile creatures have trained and advised every terrorist state from South America to the Shah''s SAVAK and Mugabe''s terror state in Zimbawel.

You will be happy to know that the United States is required by law to supply Israel with oil should she need it, any time...regardless of the situation.

And remember, they demand you pay them their aid in Euros...talk about your big, fat Welfare Queen in her Cadillac...

Pilgrim after missing 3 days sleep in boot camp, were you given a orange jump suit and put back in a wire cage? Held for 5 years with no right to a lawyer or even told what you were charged with.

I wonder how many people understand the difference between the Palestinian Israeli situation and the illegal holding of humans in Club Gitmo. The Pals and Jews live close to each other. They are at war, not that either side is right, but that is not my point. The idea that Afghan goat herders and cab drivers, hiding in caves, master minded 9/11 is absurd silliness. No way could anyone in the USA be harmed by any Afghan from their cave. Unless of course the American is addicted to HEROIN.

When I was in boot camp here in the US, I was deprived of sleep for 3 whole days. This was part of the training.

So sleep deprivation is OK for training, but we dare not use it as a means of getting information out of killers?

And the terrorists, and Iran''s proxy army in Palestine are eating this up. At least the Israelis aren''t setting up firing squads to shoot suspects in the streets like Hamas likes to do.

"Bleeding Heart Syndrome" ????

That''s the Far Fringe of our right wing,,, they are the one''s crying for fulfillment of their biblical prophacy, inspite of the fact that Israel isn''t helping in the War on Terror.

"Pretty soon the folks with Bleeding Heart Syndrome..."

Blah, blah, blah...

"Bleeding hearts"? I suspose YOUR heart DOESN''T "bleed"/pump blood to your brain? THAT explains your difficulting in grasping the concept that torture is evil.

Not only is torture evil, but it does not work! Torture does NOT provide any useful information. What torture does is to get the tortured person to tell you what he thinks you want to hear, in a desperate attempt to get you to stop torturing him! That is NOT reliable information. It is useless. The information you get depends entirely on what you suggest or imply that you already believe. That is totally WORTHLESS. It is not "information" at all.

Anyone who tortures another human being (even little sadists like Bush who tortured animals such as frogs by ramming firecrackers up their buttttts, lighting the fuse, and cackling with glee when they blew up) is EVIL. There is simply no other word for it.

Nothing says "evil" like "torture"!!!

Screw Israel... They are nothing more then a liability for us. What has Israel done for us lately?

I''ll go a step further:

Other than making us many times MORE susceptible to terrorism, what has Israel done for us EVER?
