Even Somalia is along the same lines. Need I go on with this list?

THe point is, to suggest we favor one country over the other is not correct. To suggest that the Jewish state controls ours is not correct. The more correct answer is that we support them because they have been subjected to crimes against their state! Quite frankly, I am not quite sure why they haven't done something against the rockets flying into their country for no reason. Hezbollah just decides to launch here and there and I don't quite get why everyone is upset that Isreal got ticked off and bombed the hell out of them??? Yeah, I'd have to side with Isreal on that one. If some country allowed rockets to be fired into mine indescriminently, I'd have my ass up on Capitol Hill demanding answers as to why we didn't retaliate! Someone kidnaps our soldiers, same thing. I don't understand why some countries claim they responded too harshly. I am wondering personally, why they didn't respond with more force???
