Bill being Drafted to Bar International Peace Activists from Entering Israel

The law would apply restrictions to anyone who acts against Israel, denies the Holocaust, works to boycott Israel and/or attempts to place Israeli leaders on international trial for what they did in the line of duty, reported Arutz Sheva.

3. Perhaps, if Hamas was the recipient of $114 billion in US aid they would have a right

to. And if Gaza was constantly being championed as a "free liberal democracy". But it's not. It's a prison camp run by desperate people who are facing an intractable enemy funded by the richest and strongest country in the world.

Perhaps you could explain Rachel Corrie to us. Perhaps you could explain why I should support a religiously identified government.
