hardly any american actually knows the history of the middle east. how america not only was involved but actively took charge of many decisions brought forward about the future of the middle east... decisions which america does not have the right to take. israel is not surrounded by terrorists!!! american politics placed the jews, that america did not want, into a place where they never belonged. so, if you kill people, terrorise them, threaten them, and drive them out of their homes in order to give jews that you do not want yourself a home; give this new country, Israel, the military needs to "protect" itself... !!! often enough used to ATTACK!!! then you are killing thousands of innocent people. this is american politics.
