It is clearly an anti-US demontration, since it is about the settlements. Practically all US presidents Republican or Democrat have told Israelis to stop the expansion of the settlements, so this is not about Obamam, but US. Bush Sr went as far as freezing aid to Israel, and only then did they obey. I think the Israelis are walking on thin ice here, and I think they are counting on American conservatives to side with them as opposed to siding with America.
i don't know how you can make assumptions for conservatives. many american conservatives don't want american money going to any foreign aid until we get our own financial house in order. there are 2 sides to every story and that is why israel and palestine need to work it out themselves. we have heard the palestine side and here is the israel side, so you can see that the issue is a lot more complicated than it appears, and it is unlikely that an american president's intervention will be able to "solve" the problem.
Just because you disagree with someone's policies DOES NOT mean you hate them.
The only things the NeoConfuseds have is FALSE allegations of hatred (i.e. You voted for _______? YOU must hate America!) and their meaningless fear mongering.
WHAT a bunch of empty suits
I am saying when you woud rather help a persons enemy then them? What does that mean? That you love your friend or your friends enemy?

First of all, these few hundred hardliners never called for the "annhilation" of anyone.
Secondly you're equating a relatively small group of Israelis (as if they represent Israel) to the view of the majority (not "some") of the Palestinian population which really does call for the eradication Of Israel..
You're a prime example of what I referred to in post #26.
Well, I know YOU are apparently ignorant of the fact I was replying to this post:

And, IF you actually read my post rather than immediately jumping on your high Israel is Right horse you might have noticed I specifically referred to the hypocrisy of those hardliners.
And you may well be a prime example of someone who likes to spew the crap that Israel is always right and justified in its actions, it certainly sounds that way.
Why do you all care? I mean what makes this any different then the thousands of other protests against US presidents/governments that have occurred in other countries in the past? I mean sure Israel is an ally but no one really cared this much about protests against Clinton in NATO ally Greece in the 1990s.
When Israel becomes a US state then I might start caring what they think of our president. Until then it is just another bunch of foreigners who do not like a current US government/president and are protesting about it.
