In your personal life do you not differentiate between friends, acquaintances with common interests, and those who don't wish you well?

So you're a German who still considers the Jews to be your enemies.........but you haven't named a single one of the Muslim nations flooding your country with refugees who are engaged in rapes, murders, etc

By law all US aid to Israel has to be used purchasing weapons from the United States, so it provides job and tax revenue for us.

Now we should NOT be sending the money to Palestinians. We should also deduct the cost of the border wall from the foreign aid we give to Mexico, Honduras, El Salvador, and Guatemala.

My opinion on such a question has changed significantly over the past few weeks.

Honest to god I see the new axis/enemy set of the US to be between Mexico, China, and Germany. They way there governments have united against US policy and there baseless defense of endless globalism have made all three seem much more friendly with each other. One starts questioning if they are in cahoots with one another

I blame Colombia, Mexico, El Salvador, and Honduras as the countries most responsible for the drug epidemic in the United States that is killing thousands of Americans every year. Colombia is the source of most of the illegal drugs in the USA. They smuggle it through Central America and Mexico. But at least Colombia is less known for illegal immigration compared to the other countries I mentioned.

I don't understand why people think that Canada, the UK, or any EU country has been an ally of the US since the Cold War. They have all hated us at least that long.

You are right. Columbia is not a enemy of the United States.
