With all due respect t..."Play for time." With all due respect that's silly. Instead of playing for time simply tell the Americans "NO!!", if they want any more concessions. Out of this "alliance" America gets the following, 1.)valuable intel on its enemies, 2.)valuable input on the development and testing of important weapons systems, and 3.)a buffer between it and its enemies. I have a feeling I'm barely scratching the surface ont he benefits America receives from the relationship with Israel. <br /><br />What precisely does Israel get from this relationship? One sided relationships, as this one is, either need to change or they need to end. For Israel's interest, its time to tell the Americans either make a meaningful contribtuion here or TAKE A HIKE!! As an American, I certainly don't want it to come to that. <br /><br />Unfortunately America's situation is dire. With a deeply struggling economy, a worn down military, intellegence services that are in disarray, and a massive national debt frankly I'm not sure how America can help Israel even if it wanted to. As such, Israel might be better off to jettison the dead weight of the United States. <br /><br />Why should Israel agree to a "settlement freeze?" Mexico claims as theirs Texas and all lands lost in the Mexican American war but I don't see the American freezing settlements in any of these disputed territories. It seems rather hypocritical for America to expect Israel to agree to a settlement freeze when it does freeze settlements on its disputed territories. <br /><br />Israel should politely but firmly point out this bit of hypocrissy on the part of its "ally." I think the term that comes to mind is "call a spade a spade" or something to this effect.B.Posternoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16816866.post-85029865935397357602010-07-06T10:29:13.291-07:002010-07-06T10:29:13.291-07:00.....lemme see here......
