25. The US was a slave state long after it was accepted
Edited on Fri Apr-14-06 06:55 PM by K-W
by the global powers of the time.

I guess anything that proves you wrong is a red herring.

Regardless the US to this day has terrorists in its government and has a government that supports terrorism that actually does attack other nations. WHERE ARE THE EMBARGOES?

The palestinian government doesnt control the actions of palestinians, but if we are going to make it clear to them that Israel can do whatever it wants and we will not help them, why should they try and cooperate?

Contrary to what you say, the government is a vital part of what support systems the palestinians have, cutting state aid does have a humanitarian cost.

Like I said, its fine if you dont want to fund this government. but if you were interested in a democratic palestine and not a palestine that would cooperate with Israeli and US plans, you wouldnt cut off aid because of an election result.

And as long as the US funds the Israeli military it can fund a government with Hamas in it.
