“When Israelis in the occupied territories now claim that they have to defend themselves, they are defending themselves in the sense that any military occupier has to defend itself against the population they are crushing. You can't defend yourself when you're militarily occupying someone else's land. That's not defense. Call it what you like, it's not defense.”
-Chomsky

I agree with your completely. They represent freedom and libierty in a region of religious slavery.

I would like to not pay this tax. However I am compelled to do so like a slave. Israel is my slavery so they can hardly represent my freedom.

You would still pay the same tax, even if Israel ceased to exist. Sorry to hear you are enslaved, though. Can you say hyperbole!!!!

Can you say not correct? Why would I pay the same tax not supporting a foreign country? Why is taking my money "freedom"? The reason why is because this country is full of religious lunatics.

I won't mind that a few of my tax dollars go towards helping you pack, fly and fight for Israel.
