Sunday, June 10, 2012 1:51:06 PM So, anyway, here's the actual text of HR 4133: HR 4133 I'm really not happy with it. We need to reign in foreign spending in order to shore up our economy, and in my opinion, this is the one of the first items that should be looked at cutting. Or, you know, we could just keep doing business as usual, because that has worked so well in the past. |

Sunday, June 10, 2012 9:48:56 AM "Cut them loose from military aid and promise no reprisals if invaded and see how long they last." Ok, let's do that. I couldn't care less about a piece of land smaller than the state of New Jersey. |

Sunday, June 10, 2012 5:50:30 AM Go to the About page of this article for a good laugh. These people believe in the 2012 Mayan calendar BS. That is what the whole site is about. F*cking idiots. |

Sunday, June 10, 2012 5:18:25 AM I was with this article till it alleged that the US was responsible for the arab spring and the CIA and Alqaeda were behind the massacres in Syria, which after even the most cursory glance at the facts is obviously untrue. I think poster should have read whole article before sharing. |

Sunday, June 10, 2012 5:14:17 AM Propaganda? More than likely, attack on the constitutional sovereignty of the United States, for certain. I agree with this part of your comment. |

Sunday, June 10, 2012 5:12:35 AM If it weren't for the racist Russians, the UN would already be there helping the Syrians. Just WHO THE HELL are we supposed to support? There are DOZENS of factions vying for power in Syria right now, it's not just "one united front". So helping "the rebels" would only strengthen Assad's legitimacy and make yet another Arab enemy of the United States. Lastly the UN is the most corrupt and incompentent big Government organization on the planet. |

Sunday, June 10, 2012 1:54:51 AM As I understand it most intelligence says that propping up Israel is the way to stop the entire Middle East collapsing into one country and becoming a vaugley organized force. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 11:27:00 PM "Why are you Americans taking this crap? " I guess because most of us would rather not revolt against our shi**y government and probably get shot in the process. It's the only way to fix it i think. voting is worthless here, after all. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 10:35:38 PM I really thought these two contries was, well, two contries... and pretty far apart at that. Why do I keep reading things about Israel dictaing what the US should be doing? I find that a bit weird. Though politically, it seems that Israel don't like the middle east either, so I guess that's comon ground. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 10:25:41 PM Tolda ya. Jews control the world. But don't hurry helping Syrians. It's not like children and women are dying there by the thousands. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 9:18:48 PM For these persons and their organizations that they either support or control are using Ann Rand's philosophy of Neo-liberalism to attack, control and subjugate all western Democracies AYN Rand's philosophy of neo-liberalism? Ha, she was an ardent proponent of CLASSICAL liberalism, which advocated free markets and limited (if any) government. Also, the sovereignty of the individual. Are you insane? Did you write this article? I can see the sun glinting off your hat. You know, the one made of tin-foil. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 9:12:03 PM This is so so so stupid. Why are you Americans taking this crap? I mean, like, I thought you guys were already trillions of dollars in debt already?! Also, Israel has one of the best damn armies in the world, I am pretty sure they can hold out on their own. They also have nukes. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 8:42:02 PM The best part was the end: The Obama administration, under careful control of the global Elite, is consolidating powers with Israel in a joint effort to take over the world . . . by toppling one government at a time. Besides it just passed the House. It still has to go through the Senate. Then both chambers have to knock it out and then they both vote on it again. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 8:26:03 PM It really seems weird sometimes, that we help defend that country so much. I'm not really against it and know we helped establish it after ww2, but I wonder if there is a real strategic reason we are there, or if it is really religious superstition that keeps up there. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 8:04:02 PM Israel is a really tiny country and they've had to fight for their freedom ever since their inception. The muslim brotherhood, al-qaeda, hamas, hezbollah, iran and others want them wiped off the map. Israel is not the problem, their intolerant sharia law neighbors are the problem. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 6:40:32 PM Holy crap congress was able to work together on something. Only 1 Republican and 1 Democrat voted against it. I have no idea what this bill is but I am in shock. |

Saturday, June 09, 2012 5:49:28 PM Propaganda? More than likely, attack on the constitutional sovereignty of the United States, for certain. Wither this is coming from the left or right, I don't rightly care. What I do care about tho is this fit perfectly into the American extreme right take over the term and action of what was formerly called Conservatives and Conservatism. These Extremist Americans are Fascists (Corporations & politics) and Dominationists (Religion) by their actions and not by their words. For these persons and their organizations that they either support or control are using Ann Rand's philosophy of Neo-liberalism to attack, control and subjugate all western Democracies (North America and Europe). As of right now the Fascists and Dominanists are allied to take out their common "enemy", ANYTHING that helps and protects the people, all people. A Coup by pieces is still a Coup! Regardless of who the puppets may be. |

Isreal needs to gear up militarily. Muslim Brotherhood candidate in Egypt was leading the crowd in his campaign slogan "Our Capital Shall Be Jeruselem" and chanting "A Million Martys March to Isreal". Yep, they need to gear up. |
