      When you consider that Muslim states make up close to the majority of the votes that decide what is "international law", it makes sense. Think about it.... Libya, Iraq, Syria, Saudi Arabia, etc etc have an equal vote on these matters!

      @@Shmilfke ? That's not how it works. International law is treaties that individual nations are free to ratify or leave as they please. But once a state is in, a state can't break the treaty (legally, but no one will enforce it except in certain circumstances) without leaving it first.

    better question: Is what Israel thinks is good for them actually good for them in the first place? It would be in the best interest of Israel to stop settlements in the west bank, to treat Gaza fairly and to allow a two-state solution. Unless you think that terrorism and war is better than a chance for peace. Because if Israel continues their policies they same way they have been, they don't have to be surprised that the Palestinians hate them.

    Israel has been exposed, and it helps us to understand how Apartheid applies to Israel and how Semitic doesn't to Zionist so that Israel can not use the term Antisemitic or play the victim while committing genocide on Gaza.

      That’s not what she said, but nice straw man. What she is saying is that a foreign agent trying to subvert the commander in chief through Congress is scummy and bizarre. She is not calling for a dictatorship, she is saying foreigners shouldn’t subvert the president who will very correctly veto the bill. Is vetoing a dictator move or something?

    1. By Shutting down AIPAC, by refusing AIPAC, American GDP can grow from $25 trillion dollars to $50 trillion dollars and we can all become filthy rich.
    2. Demographics. More than 24.1% of the world's population is Muslim, with an estimated total of approximately 1.9 billion. Muslims are the majority in 49 countries, they speak hundreds of languages and come from diverse ethnic backgrounds.
    3. And we can fix America’s trade deficit too.

      So you say you are ready to vote for a man who will say one thing but do the exact opposite?
      Given that Trumps says a lot, how do you then know what he really means...?
      You see, that's one of the problems with Trump, no one really have a clue of what he means - most of his statements are either populistic or so arbitrary that people put into it what they think themselves!
      I have no doubt that AIPAC will prefer Ted Cruz, I'll give you that much - but they will rather go with Trump than with Bernie Sanders, (a bit ironic - rather have the one of German descent than the one of Jewish)...
      But it leads me to this, the only one who has been consistent and have a record of many years that prove it, is Bernie Sanders...
