Because cars driven by sober drivers who are carrying passengers who are drinking is a leading cause of accidents.

We give hundreds of millions to the Palestinians too, well, to Hamas apparently. Egypt keeps their border with Gaza closed because every time they open it up, it's a disaster for them. Jordan? Hell, they kicked out something like 100,000 Palestinians. Lovely folk. Lebanon? They keep them in squalid camps.

There is a vested interest in the Arab world to keep the Palestinian thing right were it is. It's a thorn in Israel's (and the USA's) side. Nothing stopping the Palestinians from being a real country, other than the fact that the rest of the Arab world would only agree to that if Israel were driven into the sea.

I agree with most all of that, however, have you considered that opening the border brings on the chaos of an uncontrolable flood of people desperate to cross? Look at our southern border

The difference is, we didn't actively cause our Southern neighbors to live in a shithole....they did that all by themselves.

So did the Palestinians. They were offered 99% of what they wanted back in the 90's, and they rejected it. So, reap what they sow. Also they sided with Egypt, Syria, and Jordan during the two big ME wars, and lost. Losers of wars, sometimes it sucks.

Oh you know what I mean ya big dummy.

But just think of this, some drunk passenger pukes in the front. Distracting the driver and causing him/her to swerve into oncoming traffic. Just sayin'.
Babies puke a lot, too. Clearly we need to make transporting babies in cars illegal. Think of the chidren.

On topic (sorry)

1. I believe it was a staged question with a well prepared answer.

2. I would prefer to have Isreal as an anny over the Palestinians.

3. I would prefer that the US be a self sufficient, isolationist nation, but that will never happen. It certainly COULD but no one would be willing to pay the price. I mean that literally. Foriegn countries, like drug dealers, have us hooked on cheap goods and like drug addicts, we are not willing to go through the withdrawls and will ultimately OD and die in our current state of dependency.

Personally, both Israel AND Palestine can kiss my ass. They BOTH have spied on, shot at, and have hated the US.
Maybe it is time to step away and let that region sort itself out.

Deaf ears, I know. I'll return you to the regularly scheduled circle jerk.
Because Al-Qa'ida(try spelling it right) is the only Muslim terror group.

You forgot:
Gama’a al-Islamiyya
HAMAS
Hizballah
Palestine Liberation Front
Palestinian Islamic Jihad
Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine
Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan
Jaish-e-Mohammed
al-Qaida in the Islamic Maghreb
Ansar al-Islam
Libyan Islamic Fighting Group
Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (formerly al-Qa'ida in Iraq)
Islamic Jihad Union
Harakat ul-Jihad-i-Islami/Bangladesh
Kata'ib Hizballah
al-Qa'ida in the Arabian Peninsula
Harakat ul-Jihad-i-Islami
Tehrik-e Taliban Pakistan
Army of Islam
Boko Haram

This list is not all inclusive and was found at....wait for it...the US State Department's website. This is the same government that you seem to think can do no wrong.

I now return you to your everything will go right with the world as long Democrats are in charge, the US is mean, let's give money to people that want to kill us, line up to suck Obama's dick love fest

i·so·la·tion·ism
[ahy-suh-ley-shuh-niz-uhm, is-uh-] noun
the policy or doctrine of isolating one's country from the affairs of other nations by declining to enter into alliances, foreign economic commitments, international agreements, etc., seeking to devote the entire efforts of one's country to its own advancement and remain at peace by avoiding foreign entanglements and responsibilities.

We would have:

Industry that supports our material needs

Farms that support our food needs

Oil exploration and drilling, mining, nuclear power, etc. that supports our energy needs

You've mentioned the foreign aid bit a couple of times; it's about $3B dollars, most of which is military. It's minuscule when compared to the rest of the useless crap the government wastes money on. Given the presence we get by proxy in that region, it's a bargain in good will. At least it was before Obonehead and Billary and Ghingus John forked it up.

Of course the Israeli government doesn't hate us. We are the sugar daddy.

They say we are easy to push around and that we won't do anything to stop them when they go ape shit on the Palestinians. That 80% of Americans are in their pocket and even they think that's absurd.

When you look at a post and it's racking up numbers in the upper 60's, sure as you were born, Cooool has posted something that has the natives restless.
