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.

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?

Oh Please, disapproving of Israels actions does NOT make him Anti Semitic or that he hates Jews. Natanyahu is an extremist

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.
