Hamas also never stopped firing rockets. There were always stray rockets here and there, but Hamas would always claim they weren't responsible, and Israel would play along because they didn't want a war at that point.

Eventually it got to the point that Israel couldn't do that anymore, when the murder-grabs and barrages started. And then, of course, the murder-tunnels were discovered and the whole game was up.

None of that has anything to do with the US government actively sabotaging an Israeli investigation into the whereabouts of one of its soldiers, of course. Thank God Holder is gone.

The loyalty of the US government is towards Americans, not Likud, dead0man.

I still don't understand why dead0mensch hasn't just up and moved there, since he seems to care more about Israel than he does this country.


There is no conflict of interest between Israel and the American people here (which is what makes this case so strange).

IndyTexas: The bolded part is not okay.
 

Yeah, I usually respect IndyTexas, but that's way out of line.

Also, the "Why don't you just move there/leave" argument is awful regardless of the subject matter.

This is very strange. The administration doesn't stand up to Israel where it should (settlements) but they won't even do this for them?

They tried to "stand up to" Israel on settlements, with a massive diplomatic offensive in early 2010. A bipartisan coalition of Congressmen and Senators shut him down.

Without his own party supporting him on the issue, all Obama can do is engage in petty acts of sabotage like this.
