U.S. State Dept. Hypocrisy

Has the U.S. State Department EVER been a friend to Israel? Not in recent memory.

In today’s news from the Associated Press, in an article written by George Gedda, The U.S. State Department makes the sour statement that “Israel likely misused American-made cluster bombs in civilian areas of Lebanon during the war against Hezbollah last summer….”

Talk about the nerve man! I wonder just how many American-made bombs have been misused in Iraq? I wonder just how many American-made weapons etc. have been, or will be misused by Egypt, or Iraq?

Egypt is the Middle East’s biggest Arab receiver of American weapons and armament. We all know when Egypt has war games that the “pretend” enemy is always Israel.

If the peace ever failed, it would be Egypt using American-made stuff against Israel.

But that’s not the issue. The issue is the hypocrisy of the United States State Department, led by Condoleeza Rice, a woman who constantly interferes in Middle Eastern affairs, sticking her nose where it is not only where it doesn’t belong, but also where it is completely and utterly unwelcome.

Of course, she does it mainly at the behest of George W. Bush who, like many others wants to go down in history as the person who brought peace to the Middle East and solved the Israeli-‘Palestinian’ conflict.

My gosh, I am so sick of the U.S. constantly acting like everyone in the Middle East, Arabs or Jews are their personal lap-dogs which they can call to heel at any moment.

The U.S. needs to get its long nose out of the business of the Middle East in general. Get OUT of Iraq and let the Iraqis deal with their own mess and create a country on their own. The American colonies didn’t allow France or anyone else to build the U.S. for them. They built it themselves after defeating England in war. Let the Iraqis build their own nation without the U.S.’s constant involvement. If Iran or Saudi Arabia or anyone else in that region wants to interfere, LET THEM! As long as they are busy fighting each other, the U.S. has less to worry about and can focus on rebuilding its military at home, fixing its own, internal problems etc. etc. etc.

The U.S. should get it’s fingers out of the Israelis’ pie as well. The Israelis in turn should stop relying on the U.S. for everything. They need to catch a clue, the U.S. is only a friend as long as you do what the Americans say.

It needs to be said that the American founding fathers did not want Americans to be engaging in foreign wars that tax the American people and American resources. America is not sovereign over the entire earth.

Arabs and Jews alike should be willing to tell the American State Department where to stick it.
