1.) No thats not what I am saying at all. I think the US is talking out of its butt when we try to advise them on when and how to defend themselves when we have clearly never had to deal with it. We are trying to advise Isreal on how to fight a war they have been fighting since the beginning of time. Again, its not going to end in this life. Our foreign aid should be based on need, not on our ability, perceived or implied, to politically influence their decisions.

Did any of that make sense?


2.) Cripple. Goes back to my medical waiver issue. Its a NDD thing.
