What year will WW III start?

Do tell what consequences you think would result.

Do tell what you think would happen if we didn't support them. What consequences would this have on your everyday life? Would Israel still be a member of the UN? If Israel was attacked by say Iran for example do you think the US and the UN would sit idly by? Would we be the negative effect of on congress people being less obligatorily supportive of Netanyahu, and Israel?

The consequences of Obama's lack of leadership are being seen all over the planet. Those who drink his Kool-Aid are true followers, not leaders or decision makers.

It will affect my life, your life and most of all the lifes of my grandchildren. First, the UN is WORTHLESS. Second, the EU is doing nothing about the migration taking place now. The solution would be rather easy if we set up protected safe zones in their country. The fact that the EU does nothing is proof your UN theory is invalid. There's also a cliche about an ounce of prevention = a pound of cure. Why on earth would you not try to prevent an attack? And don't forget, you have China and Russia jabbing us. When the time is right, those jabs will become haymakers and they will go for the knockout punch. So, how does this affect my life and yours? With hot spots across the globe we will be limited in what we can do. This means that when the knockout punch comes we will not be able to withstand it. It will cost American lives and probably our way of life. I'm old and I'm glad I am. But I am scared for my children and grandchildren. This lack of leadership will be costly. (Americans are not the only students of history my friend.)
 
That is some odd tourettes you have.
Please explain. Didn't follow. If it's an assault of me as a person that's fine. Just not sure what typing or judgement error I made to warrant the comment. If it's funny, I'll laugh too.

Just seemed a bit out of place because the comment didn't seem aimed at anything in particular. It was more of a random statement in a thread.

But I am scared

I can tell. I am not though, and I don't think scared people should make policy either. Are you implying that Israel is the cornerstone that is holding back the tide of Russia and China? I don't think we are going to be able to have a constructive discussion on this subject.

Wars are based on economics now. Right now we are winning but by 2022 China will take over and we will fall way behind.
 
Let's hear your plan to set them back a few dozen years that neutralizes them as a threat and leaves them in power. Something tells me you haven't thought this through. While your at it, how are Ukraine, Crimea or Syria either a thorn in our side or an example of Russian engagement with the U.S.?

If they engage us directly in Syria or if they want to fight a full proxy war, we can decimate their military in the process, while they are already struggling economically. He can't recover form something like that and we'd see a big change from Moscow politics and foreign policy. I'm not beating the war drum, but F em if they think they are going to be calling the shots in the ME or anywhere outside of their borders.

That's a smart retreat from putting a fork in them.

Agree about our inability to discuss. And NO, not implying in any way that Israel is holding back R & C. Too busy today for this but wish we could discuss. It's how we all learn. Thank goodness we don't all think alike. (And I am sooooo fortunate to always be right.:D) Have a great afternoon.
