I'm gonna dispel a few myths, a few rumors about djacques. First off, he doesn't rule the night. He doesn't rule it. Nobody does. And he doesn't run in a pack. And while he may not be as strong as an ape, don't lock eyes with him, don't do it. Puts him on edge. He might go into berzerker mode; come at you like a whirling dervish, all fists and elbows. You might be screaming "No, no, no" and all he hears is "Who wants cake?" Let me tell you something: He does. He really wants cake.

And I'm for cutting off all aid that isn't specifically for programs relative to poverty.

You're a bit late to the party if you don't agree with that (even Richard Perle, who edited the far right Jerusalem Post, was one of the PNAC Iraq War architects and wrote extensively about 'securing the realm' for Israel concedes that point, does he hate Israel too?) even Israel's staunchest supporters in the US admit it's the key factor. But it's not the only one. What is debatable, is how the US' relationship with the region would look if the US-Israel relationship was fundamentally different.

Of course it's debatable. Here is the list of organizations that the UAE put out last week and was affirmed by the Arab League this week:

UAE Cabinet approves list of designated terrorist organisations, groups | WAM

How many have you actually heard of? Do you notice who is NOT listed?
