Sorry to have to say this, my fellow ...
Americans, but we are now firmly planted on the wrong side of history. What would George Washington think if he knew the REAL capitol of the USA was in Tel Aviv?

george, you are really twisted in this post. I just wish you would explain to me why you are so anti-Isreal. Just picture the county you live in in AZ. You are trying to protect your county and the surronding counties are saying that the land belonged to them and they wanted it back. Would you fight or just give up?

"I just wish you would explain to me why you are so anti-Isreal."
>>>That's easy. Elements of the Likud Party in Israel conspired with elements of the Likud Party in America to bring about a war which is not in the best interest of the USA, and in which 3000 GIs died not knowing why they were being killed. I probably wouldn't object so much if the 'justifications' for the war had been laid on the table honestly.

To quote Anthony Eden
"Isreal is our only friend in the region, but before it existed we had no enemies"
If I was Isreali I may have responded in a similar way in defence of my country. That doesn't mean I support them though. It is a precarious country created for dubious reasons. I think it should be left well alone.

Alright then why do you support Isreal. I know they are a democracy but then so is Lebanon, Iran even France

Israel wasn't created for dubious reasons, in my opinion. Israel was created so that they couldn't be destroyed after Hitler's genocide. If they have their own state and government, there is little chance of that government deciding to wipe them from the face of the Earth.
As for their enemies, this is nothing new. It began with Ishmael and Isaac. God foretold that the two's descendants would never peacefully coexist.
The only problem I have is that there have been several genocides, and many of those oppressed have never been given their own country, and perhaps Israel could have been formed in a less controversial area of the globe.
