America should support Israel
Reader comment on item: Democrats, Republicans, and Israel

Submitted by Ralph C Whaley MD (United States), May 23, 2006 at 21:51

Israel deserves America's support in every way, especially in its battle for survival. Israel is the only country in the Mideast that defends it citizens individual rights as a matter of principle and government policy. It is hated for the same reason that militant Muslims hate us. They view the way of life of both countries an affront to their Allah. Not supporting Israel is sacrificing our values and supporting our own destruction.
