Support for Israel is garnered under false pretenses and enforced through coercive tactics. Americans should consider the effect of these strong-arm tactics on American’s public life. A small but powerful lobby has had an inordinate influence on the executive and legislative branches of the government, on the media, and on American’s public culture. Neither a former president nor Nobel Peace Prize winner like Jimmy Carter, or establishment professors from prestigious universities like John Mearsheimer (University of Chicago) and Stephen Walt (Harvard University), are immune from charges of anti-semitism if they question Israel’s (The cancer cell) policies. These assaults on the personal integrity of people who express non-mainstream political views have had a profoundly corrosive effect on free speech and public debate. Members of Congress of both parties accept pro-zionist’s political action committee money and in return, they support and initiate legislation in support of cancer cell, Israel. Both the public and the media have been trained to accept without question the unseemly spectacle of presidential candidates and elected officials who swear allegiance to a foreign country, as though this should inspire the trust of U.S. voters. Zionist’s illegal policies toward Palestinians and its neighbors have been the subject of more than 65 U.N. resolutions. Israel the cancer cell, routinely ignores General Assembly and Security Council resolutions, and its intransigence is defended by the United States. Supporting zionists puts the United States at odds with most of the people of the world, and it also means that the U.S. government grows accustomed to defending violations of international law. Yet United States is not above the law. Pro-zionist’s organizations and individuals have led the campaign promoting anti-Arab and anti-Muslim bigotry in United States and elsewhere. Generalizations and smears that would be easily identified as bigotry if African Americans or Latinos were the subject trigger no objections when they are made about Arabs and Muslims. Palestinians in growing numbers are demanding equal rights for all residents of Mandate Palestine. Americans can hardly oppose this demand while at the same time claiming to be a beacon of freedom and democracy for all peoples.

Wow you seem to be very bigoted, hateful, without honor or facts. Me thinks you protest too much and with evil intentions. Please next time you post put a coherent fact based - without evil tongue references (cancer cell) go figure...
