[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. The Israelis really, really played the American Palestinian supporters in the last election. Kamala wasn’t perfect, but she would have at least listened to them. Trump is going to build a resort on the graves of their families.

I’m convinced the “burn it all down” people are foreign actors. People forget that sometimes when you burn it all down you rebuild better, but more often than not you spend years or even the rest of your life living in a burned out hovel. I’d rather renovate and still have a roof over my head thanks. [/quote]

If there is any group of people on Earth that has a leg to stand on in being disgusted by the American Federal Government along with the entirety of our political landscape, it's the Palestinian people. Palestinians may just be the ones who would benefit the most from a "burn it all down" and start from scratch strategy as that strategy might be the only feasible way to reduce the influence of money politics (I'm all for trying the renovation route first).

The out of control influence of money in politics that has grown exponentially in the last two decades is why there is an imbalance in our foreign policy as it pertains to Israel. When a special interest group is able to come to the table with enough cash to purchase influence from both major parties in a two party political system, nothing is going to change with regard to our Government's policy that favors that special interest group until you eliminate the group's ability to purchase undue influence.

I'm not a proponent of "burn it all down" politically speaking but the reference to Palestinians while making this point is a poor fit.[/quote]
