What I am is American, yes. (I do descend from Irish (as well as English, Scot and German)). But that' wasn't my point, was it? No, I believe I simply pointed out a couple neutral countries.

That's true. For liberals, it's black and white when it comes to telling people what they can do in their bedrooms and with their body. Conservatives are the one trying to intrude there.

You really are whacked out. Conservatives talk about the Israeli/Terrorist conflict all the time. What the fuck does it have to do with Cuba? Why do you lefties love Cuba so much? It is a communist dictatorial nation that subjugates its people. May I remind you they were setting up nuclear missiles to launch at the U.S. Let's just forgive Castro right? The same guy is still in charge and the same people still rotting in his jails along with new ones all the time.... all for speaking out against the communists. You liberals are definitely fucked up with your love for Castro and Cuba. It also has no bearing in a Palestinian debate.[/qb]
Cuba was just another example. I wasn't equating the two. And those missiles - they left 40 years ago, remember? And what has the embargo accomplished? Nothing...except for a bunch of people trying to get to our shores.

And yes, conservative talk about the Israel/Palestinian situation all the time - "Let the Palestinians suffer...fuck them....you don't agree? Fuck you!" The whole situation is a downward spiral. It doesn't matter how much Israel is allowed to do whatever...there will ALWAYS be people coming at them...especially when people like Netanyahu come to power...and until Israel stops putting up illegal settlements.

What the fuck are you talking about? Who was beaten? Is this relavant to the Israeli/Terrorist problem? People get the shit knocked out of them in NY everyday day.
OK, I stand corrected - it wasn't NYC. But location doesn't matter. Do the names Balbir Singh Sodhi and Eric Richley ring a bell?

Is this more of your liberal PC bullshit? You're fucked up Moby. Grabbing at straws...Making shit up. Are you drunk?
I find it more amusing than anything that conservatives seem to equate questioning our policy toward Cuba as automatically a love for Castro. Stupidly amusing, actually.
