I'm asking this because I don't know...but why is it that the USA gives Isreal so much support? This is ridiculous.

Auden, I think a lot of the constituents wonder the same thing. Is the Jewish lobby really that powerful? Are they the cabal?

The Senate has just passed, by voice vote, a resolution defending and praising Israel for its war in Gaza

It's America's turn to be Israel's Tony Blair.

Don't close this thread. Instead, the admins should search for the earliest Israel/Palestine war/fighting thread, and redirect the comment link from this post to that thread. Then let's see how long it takes everyone to notice.

This seems to be a departure from the "two clocks" cliche about Israeli military action. It seems from the "war expected to continue" article that the second clock - denoting the international patience with civilian casualties - is being ignored or else is running very slowly indeed.
