#6 this could really mark the start of a major split in US-Israel relations. no wonder Israel's leaders have been conspicuously quiet lately.

#7 The "split" has already started. I suspect the IDF has some fairly interesting contingency plans for the Israeli based, US military war stocks.

US contractor depot security and support staff: Here are your El Al tickets to Kennedy, now SCRAM!

#8 If losing a war has no negative consequences for the aggressor what incentive is there to behave peacefully?

#9 Why the same incentive for armies and nations to respect the Geneva Convention -> *NONE*.

Our extension of 'GC protections' to illegal combatants (aka terrorists like the Taliban and Al-Qaeda) makes the GC toothless.

#12 And what sayeth Hashemite Jordan to this, given that AFAIK they still claim the West Bank as their sovereign territory, NOT per any Paleos???

#13 Pffft. Like Obozo even knows where Judea and Samaria are. All tucked down there by Denmark or something. His jooo-hating staffers, OTOH, now that I'd believe.

*choke* I definitely was not expecting that, RandomJD. I'm sure you're right, though.

#15 TW, I hope I did not cause you any discomfort. It's just that, a man who speaks of "the Austrian language" and cheerfully confuses Maldives with Malvinas, probably could not find his own ass with a mirror and a flashlight.

#16 It was sheer delight, my dear, not discomfort. You do have a way of connecting things.
