Since the majority of YA politics posts antisemitic rants, is it safe to assume they are also anti American?

Isn't being Pro Hamas Pro Hezbollah the same as being anti democracy anti freedomSince the majority of YA politics posts antisemitic rants, is it safe to assume they are also anti American?
You are 100% correct my friend. However I have a feeling many of the anti Israel statements have been from people over seas coming into the American section of this site.Since the majority of YA politics posts antisemitic rants, is it safe to assume they are also anti American?
If we cut foreign aid, not only to Israel, but to ALL countries we send aid to, countries we send aid to that are enemies of Israel (current or potential), Israel would actually be strenghtened. I know a lot of people on this forum aren't too keen on facts, but here you go:

Since a lot of Neocons are going to thumb this down without checking out the link, I will post the numbers right in front of their faces:





1. Israel 2.58 Billion





Let us add up the amounts received by only these few countries, all of them mainly populated by either Muslims and/or Arabs.





2. Egypt 1.84 Billion





3. Afghanistan 0.98 Billion





4. Pakistan 0.70 Billion





6. Sudan 0.50 Billion





7. Jordan 0.48 Billion





If we do so, we arrive at the figure of $4.5 Billion. So, yes, Israel will lose $2.58 Billion, but its enemies, both actual and potential, are out of pocket a far larger $4.5 Billion. If we sum up the amounts received by all countries which harbor anti-Semites, we reach a much higher figure. If we define this broadly enough, this might well include just about every other nation on earth. No matter what statistics we consider, Israel is relatively strengthened by the Ron Paul policy on foreign aid.





';But A Republicrat, you are comparing cutting aid to ONE country to a SET of countries!'; Read on.....





There is nothing, nothing at all, in Ron Paul鈥檚 program that would even in the slightest interfere with private foreign charitable giving. In other words, Jews in the U.S., and non-Jewish American supporters of Israel, would be just as free as at present, to donate to this country. In fact, there is every reason to suppose that these private gifts to Israel would increase, not decrease. For one thing, with the slight (foreign aid comprises only in the neighborhood of 1% of GDP) reduction in taxes this would imply (in a Ron Paul administration, such savings would be funneled into lower taxation, not into other programs; did I mention that I really like the sound of that phrase, a Ron Paul administration?) more disposable income for all. Since Jews are in higher income brackets than the average person, and we presently suffer under a progressive income tax (which, by the way, would also be ended by President Paul) the largest donors to Israel would have even more income at their disposal. Then, too, this community might be so upset at this action of President Paul (I really like the way that phrase rolls off the tongue; ah, the sheer alliteration!), unwisely so, but still, so that they would donate additional monies.
Strange but true that the Nazis used the same argument and 'logic.'


When you get a job and have to hand over half your earnings to pay for your freedom to do as you have to you will be able to see more than one side at a time..
No, I won't resort to the tactics used by others to claim anti Americanism for someone with a different opinion. The past 8 years of that drivel has been enough to last a lifetime.
Whoa, that's quite a leap in logic bucko. The answer is no. It's call freedom of thought, and speech. I for one am grateful we still have it, after the last 8 yrs.
I just had a question deleted, this is how it read:


';Who actually thought that Israel's disengagement from Gaza would bring peace?';


---------


That is all it asked.
You are very correct. It reminds me very much of what Germany must have been like in the 1930's








But don't get upset. We knew it would happen again. it was just a matter of time.
Most Liberals are anti-American. They have to be in order to place a Socialist into the White House.
No. One can be pro-American and anti-israel.
Almost always ^^^
yes
Should we kick them out of the country?


I think people that hate dogs are unamerican but maybe they just hate dogs.
