oh I agree, just they have some more leeway at this point because of how weak we are on the foreign stage. They also know that no matter how much kerry and bama bitch they don't have the balls to cut off the funds. If the dems tried to cut off funds to Israel they would lose votes, money and the media.
FWIW Im glad we are starting to become averse to involving ourselves in foreign conflicts. However, we need to regain our position on the world stage. The problem is trying to do that without being war mongering.

Hell of a question to answer. We like to throw our economic weight around, but that only goes so far. The EU needs to back us up to really leave bad actors twisting in the wind. The EU, who makes our Congress look efficient and effective by comparison.

The problem has always been that we try to be too surgical. Same problem Israel is having right now.
War is war. We should be going-in, hitting hard and fast and viciously, and then thumbing a nose at them and leaving them with a warning ... frick-up again and we'll be back.
We should use more missiles and bombs and less boots on the ground. Boots on the ground is where we get in trouble every time.
