And the Southern Blue Dog Democrats are now Republicans. Good try, but the GOP is no longer Teddy Roosevelt's Progressive party.
Do you mean the religious Christian conservatives who are responsible for the crusades, persecution of Irish Catholics, and shooting abortion doctors?
Thanks for proving my point. Especially since you have to reach back 1000 YEARS and you seem to be unable to grasp that in recent *decades* conservative Catholics and Protestants have very much a common cause against the Left. The Christian right has been and is quite ecumenical, especially since you leftists, due to your "multicultural" apologizing for Turd World Soviet allies, have now veered into a new hipster sort of anti-Semitism.

Hamas, ISIS, Boko Haram, and other extreme Muslims keep saying they will not stop until all infidels are dead, perhaps it is time to exterminate them before they try to exterminate us. They aren't simply talking about winning a war or battle against us, they are talking about complete and utter annihilation of everyone that is not with them and their violent religion. They are the modern day Nazi's, albeit far less powerful.
I have no sympathy with Hamas, but Zionism is/was a terrible mistake. Atrocities against Jews in WW2 Europe and the Palestinian people are paying the price. On the TV we see spokespeople for Israel - from the UK, US, South Africa etc. who have more rights than the original people. Not to mention the 'settlers' - again invariably from developed western countries. It's unjust, misguided, and bad for all, no less for Jewish people themselves. Radical Islam is one of the biggest dangers in the world today. Zionism (the 19th century dream of a few intellectuals) - is also just wrong. Since the clock can't be turned back (ideally said Westerners would repatriate themselves), the Israelis should be proactive in bringing about a two state solution, returning the land back pre 67. There'll be no peace or equity till then.

Yes, we all knew this was going on. They really do use human shields...that way when Israel sends over rockets (to defend themselves, mind you) Hamas can say "oh look they are killing civilians and children!!!" Thus making Israel look bad. And the media and most Americans just EAT. THAT. UP. They eat it up like a flock of sheep... Even though the Hamas is the one forcing people, usually at gunpoint, to stay in the homes that they know are being targeted. I support Israel 100%.
I don't eat it up. Please speak for yourself. I am an American and don't "eat it up". I know perfectly well what the monster Hamas are doing. But I also know that it is very sick for Israel to allow them to respond by the provocation by Hamas by killing in such a wanton manner. (You will say it is not wanton but it IS.) Israel ought be bigger than that and they are not. They are aware that they kill almost 2,000 Palestinians, more than half children, old people and other innocents and that they have maimed countless others and caused horrific psychological damage to the Palestinians. Yes, I know that the Hamas is sending rockets into Israel but this does NOT justify such a ridiculously out of proportion number of civilian deaths. All you say is that Hamas is forcing people, but the fact is that Israel is going right along. I am tired of hearing the same old, same old song about how Israel is only defending itself and I am sick and tired of hearing supporters of Israel say that we are all holding Israel to a different moral standard than the Hamas. Hamas is a miserable wretch of a murderous group but that does not excuse Israel.
