Reply #15: It was both [View All]

What do you expect?

Israel has backed much worse thugs: the neo-nazis in Argentina for example.

England you can hardly talk about seriously. We've backed folks like Saddam Hussein, Suharto in Indonesia, ethnically cleansed inhabitants of islands, contributed to the deaths of millions in famies in India, probably created the Kashmir problem etc. I see no need to continue.

Both of our countries were big fans of Apartheid. We loved it.

Now, there is an argument over whether we would have taken that position if it wasn't for the United States, but I don't see how that absolves our responsibility to the people we helped murder for a quick buck, pound and shekel.

Do you?
