MeAfrica as a continent, with an estimated population of 680 million people receives 4.5 billion $ from the US, while Israel, with a population of 6 million, receives about 3 billion. Go figure.

We like them more.

If only it was reciprocal. -- And what's there for you? Diamonds? Oil? Gold? -- Oh wait... It's that BIBLE stuff, isn't it? It's all about Jesus. (I think I just go enlightened).

Thoughts?


On a side note, tell me if this is good for an icon?

Basically, yes. That and the fact that the USA has the second-largest Jewish population outside Israel, one very politically active and very influential.

However, the majority of support from so-called Christians extends from end-times prophecies so-called that wank the denomination in question and in truth is like Israel accepting aid from Antonescu.

Except that Catholics still hate Jews because technically, they crucified Jesus.

Btw what about my projected icon? (I edited the post, see up there).

Use it. That woman hits the Uncanny Valley for me.

And I'm referring to the Protestants. Specifically the Bible-Thumpers, to whom the reason to support Israel is a war at the End of Days where Fundamentalism shall put its foot on Modernity's neck and those Jews who like their ethnoreligious identity will all burn while Jews that become good WASPs will live forever in heaven.

I heard 30% of Americans believe the end of the world is coming sometime soon.

That and the Mr. Scotty upstairs is going to beam them up so they get to fulfill the words of a Church Father whom they've never heard of but whose sentiment they'd likely agree with that watching the heathens burn is the reward of the Faithful.

As someone that accepts evolution and much of modernity in my day-to-day life, I'm one of the heathens to them.

I mainly do because people in the Deep South think the "decadence" of society is the end of days. My response is usually a description of 100 Days of Sodom and telling them that was in the Good Old Days and nothing's changed since.

I'm not sure if that would be the nutcases who believe the Second Coming is nigh, or Democrats freaking out when Bush had the launch codes. Guess it depends on when the survey was conducted.

That works I think. Set your calendar, it's gonna be a Par-Tay to end all Par Tays!

(Humans need deadlines. Gearing up for some sort of apocolyptic date makes us more efficient with our time now. Or something.)
