They have been a curse. George W. Bush and most other<br \/>\nPresidents during the last 40 years have treated Israel like the proverbial<br \/>\nred-headed step-child. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, Times, serif;\">For example,<br \/>\nAmerica continues to furnish Israel&#8217;s enemies with three times more aid and<br \/>\nassistance than it does Israel. Three times. Is that being a blessing to Israel?<br \/>\nAmerica gives unflinching and magnanimous support to militant Muslim governments<br \/>\nsuch as Saudi Arabia. There is no nation in the Middle East that has harbored,<br \/>\ntrained, supplied, and supported more terrorists than Saudi Arabia. Is that<br \/>\nbeing a blessing to Israel? In addition, every time an American President wants<br \/>\nto meddle in Middle Eastern affairs, he insists that Israel give up land for<br \/>\npeace. President Bush is doing that very thing anew and afresh at this very<br \/>\nmoment. Is that being a blessing to Israel? <\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<table style=\"font-size: 11px; border-spacing: 0px; padding: 0px;\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" width=\"100%\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td style=\"background: none transparent scroll repeat 0% 0%; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px;\"><\/td>\n<td style=\"background: none repeat scroll 0% 0% transparent; width: 107px; border-width: 0px; padding: 0px;\" width=\"107\" align=\"right\"><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p style=\"margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;\">\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I do not agree with everything Chuck Baldwin says in this article but he does make some perspectives that are worth thinking about.
