The Israeli government has pulled plenty of fast ones on the US. They've spied on us, sold classified military secrets to the Soviet Unions in exchange of letting Russian Jews go to Israel, offered military secrets to China. Look what was done in Qana and the horrendous massacres Sharon let happen in Lebanon. There is certainly some of the same bad behavior in the government and leadership of Israel as there is in any other government. The most frustrating part regarding Israel is that whenever someone tries to discuss these things, too many people take it as a personal attack on jews. It's really unfortunate this happens. No one is saying that just because the leadership of Israel has done some despicable things that Israel doesn't deserve to exist. Fear will lead some to behave quite horribly...and that fear is exactly what fuels those supportive of Israel to be so defensive. This does need to stop because criticism of the government of Israel is NOT criticism of Jews.
