Anti-ArmChair General,

I am glad our “dialog” stops here. I have little civil to say to a Jew hater.

Zoirk,

Thanks for the kind words… and the whole “Jooze” angle won;t mean much especially since this country wasn’t founded on a Jewish basis.

Good article Warner!

AAG, I’m not sure just what you are getting at, but many or most Americans believe that Jesus was God, and we all know that the Jews rejected him. So I don’t think anyone will get too far with the the argument that Americans should look to Israel as the religious standard. Most Americans are not Jews.

WTH,
I had asumed that you were a religious man who would debate without using insults. But aparently I was wrong.
Therefore, like the “bridge to nowhere” for my part this dialogue ends with this post.

WTH,
Perhps you see as daft to ask if Israel was the land where the docukents were located and places where God spoke to profets.Also, our taditions were transported to
this continent after Christopher Columbus and the conversion with the cross and the sword.
You parse words very well. Like editorial writers motto
“Often wrong but seldom in doubt”.

I’m sorry, but I fail to see what one has to do with the other? So, no, I see no reason to suggest that because we have a tradition of certain types of religious expression in the USA that we should adopt anything that the Israelis do in their country with their traditions. In fact, I find it rather daft to suggest we should.

WTH,
In your article about patriotic banner you cite Judge’s 23 page decision protecting patriotic expression such as “In God We Trust”,”One Nation Under God” etc.
Since the genesis of God as a “chosen people” is in Israel, do you thing we should follow their example to demonstrate our patriotisim?
Israel has military draft for both men and women. Also, The Jerusalem Post reports that police has been instructed
to crack down on those Internet sites and people who give instuctions on how to avoid the draft.
