ISLAM AND NOT ISRAEL ENDANGERS US TROOPS

LEGAL INSURRECTION:
The "Israel Endangers U.S. Troops" Meme Grows

I told you this was coming. Increasingly, those who think Israel is to blame for the lack of peace in the Middle East, and who view pushing Israel back to barely defensible borders as the answer, have been pushing hard the meme that Israel is endangering U.S. troops.

Today, that meme is pushed by Robert Wright in the N.Y. Times:
America’s perceived support of — or at least acquiescence in — Israel’s more inflammatory policies endangers American troops abroad. In the long run, it will also endanger American civilians at home, funneling more terrorism in their direction.

...the original justification for al-Qaeda attacks on the U.S. was the presence of U.S. troops in Saudi Arabia. U.S. troops remain there as well as in numerous other Muslim countries. So should we pull out all our troops from all Muslim countries?

And while we are at it, should we end our support for "moderate" Muslim governments because it angers the fanatics? The result of giving in to the Muslim "street" is an endless parade of appeasements and abandonment of friends.
APPEASING NEVER LED TO PEACE. NOT ONCE.

NEITHER CAN HARMING OUR ALLIES.

SO THE ANTI-ISRAEL ARGUMENT IS NOT ONLY ANTISEMITIC, IT'S BAD POLICY.

ARABS AND MUSLIMS HAVE KILLED US TROOPS.

ISRAELIS HAVE NOT.

THOSE WHO TARGET ISRAEL ARE WRONG - AND THEIR POLICIES WILL HARM US.
