Israeli-occupied territory


Hold on a moment now. This means that thanks to the passage of HR 4133, the same government that is barred from defending America's right to exist as a white Christian state is nevertheless committing itself to defending Israel's right to exist
as a Jewish state?

I refer, of course, to the U.S. Congress. It's fascinating to see that while ethnic discrimination is banned in the USA, even to the point of openly violating the Constitutional right of free association, and Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, it apparently passes Constitutional muster to pass a law which enshrines ethnic and religious discrimination in foreign states:
On May 9, 2012, the U.S. House of Representatives overwhelmingly passed House Resolution (H.R.) 4133 reaffirming United States policy commitments to Israel and calling for enhanced security cooperation between the two allies. Sponsored by House Majority Leader Rep. Eric Cantor (R-VA) and House Minority Whip Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD), the "US-Israel Enhanced Security Cooperation Act of 2012" was cosponsored by a bipartisan group of 294 representatives and passed by a vote of 411 to 2. The only dissenting votes were cast by Rep. Ron Paul (R-TX) and Rep. John Dingell (D-MI) while another nine House members voted "present."
The law certainly sounds reasonable enough. Who wants to see Israel conquered by the Arabs and the resultant bloodbath that would likely follow?
