> your major political newspaper contributor doesnt seem to think so. i don't care what some "journalist" from the 5th (or maybe 6th) column says. israel is vital to us as a stabilizing factor in the middle east. only liberals and commies like zyuganov don't realize this. we support israel not because we are some kind of zionists who believe that they are some kind of god's chosen people or whatever, but because it is a pragmatic approach. just as most israelis support us, and why israel is officially neutral towards us, but unofficially supports us in our dealings in the middle east and north africa.
