[4] Yea, and what have ye to do with me, O Tyre, and Zidon, and all the coasts of Palestine? Joel 3:4

The US House of Representatives passed a bill essentially blackmailing the Palestinians.  They do not want the Palestinians to get recognition at the UN in September as the Palestinians plan to put their statehood to a vote then.  Instead they want them to negotiate with the Israelis, on uneven grounds, the same Israelis that derailed negotiations in the first place by a resumption of building ILLEGAL settlements on occupied Palestinian lands.


ONLY 6 SAID NO.
13 SAID PRESENT
AND 5 NO VOTE
 407 VOTED IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THEIR COUNTRY, ISRAEL.
I MEAN THE US... HOW SHAMEFUL!!!
Voting is a privilege in a FREE democratic society.
A tainted vote taints that freedom, that democracy.

This is an example of the power of the Lobby, AIPAC.  US politicians are scared silly to vote what they think is right because the alternative is a slim chance of getting reelected.  Those that disobey the lobby, the lobby puts its heavy machinery against them which manifests itself in the form of financial and political support at the next election, not to mention a possible smear campaign to get rid of those that disobey or even question anything that has to do with Israeli issues.  


Reference Paul Findley. He dared to question. Even questioning is not a good idea. They set an example out of him and he wrote about it. They Dare To Speak Out is the name of his book.


Republicans and Democrats, take a break from fighting like the dickens over American issues, and all of a sudden UNITE to vote unanimously on a bill that favors Israel over the Palestinians and unjustly at that.


Surprised?  Not the least... Take Jim Moran for example.  He currently serves the 8th Congressional district of Virginia.   He is  lucky in the sense that he survived what few might.  HIS VOTE ON THE ABOVE BILL WAS "PRESENT".   Well, Jim Moran and the lobby go way back:

• Lawmaker under fire for saying Jews support Iraq war
• Smearing is a common tactic
• A Direct hit on AIPAC in 2007

Jim Moran is not the only US politician that endures at the hands of AIPAC and their many tentacles.  This 2 minute video sums up much..

The US government's "In God We Trust" is on every penny and the US is a Bible nation and the Bible recognizes Palestine...  "all the coasts of Palestine"  Joel 3:4     but it seems that the US House of Representatives wants the Palestinians to "negotiate" with a higher authority.. Israel !!  for something they stole and are still stealing from them.  Justice in this jungle belongs to the strong and mighty that plan ahead and organize.
