Strategy Pushing US into 'Abyss'
http://www.commondreams.org/headlines04/0520-01.htm

snip:

Phebe Marr, an Iraq expert at the National Defense University, says the minimal US goals should include "a state free of terrorism, a state free of weapons of mass destruction, a government, if not friendly, at least not hostile to the US and Israel", and a clear intention not to have "long-term designs on military bases or control of oil".

unsnip:

.....how much does the security of Israel drive what passes for US foreign policy?

I say cut off all aid to Israel immediately if they don't pull out of the "occupied territories" within a certain timeframe.

Set up a fund to compensate disafected Israeli colonizers and establish a ONE state solution.
