What US controveries and scandals do you believe should be investigated further?

[Mormolyce]

All I can say about this thread is:

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

15 items, actually. Obviously the sitting president is going to have more currently hot scandals than previous presidents.

Or you know, Republican talking points. LOL.

The land is controversial because the terms of various peace agreements have been to not put settlements there, but they continue to do so and continue to reignite the conflicts.

and these same peace treaties allowed for rocket attacks on Israel?

It would be better off for everyone if Israelis were the majority demographic in the liberated territories. Let the problem sort itself out in a few decades.

You should be upset with Israelis neighbors, who refuse to offer a homestead for the Palestinians they claim to care so much about.

[Bakis]

liberated territories?

[Nakura Chambers]

How is firing rockets at someone after a peace talk wanting peace?

Maybe we should ask Hamas that question?

[Xeones]

and these same peace treaties allowed for rocket attacks on Israel?

Nope. I also wasn't saying the other side was perfect. I was pointing out blatant flaws in their claim that Israel could do no wrong.

So you're proposing elimination of ethnic groups you don't like?

[araine]

So much Obama hate on those poll options. yet you hardly find anything on the true war criminals that should be in jail for what they did while in office

[Wells]

Poll doesn't mention torturing. And half that poll is Free Republic circle jerking.

Really that you could only find 1.5 things to put under Bush is pretty sad.

[Nakura Chambers]

I didn't say they should be killed.

nakura how is your stance on israeli army harvesting organs from dead palestinians and selling them to israeli hospitals?

[Nakura Chambers]

Very utilitarian of them, saving as many lives as they can. I'm sure Palestinian lives would be saved by those organs as well, if that actually happened.

[araine]

Opposing Israel isn't just the denunciation of freedom and democracy in the Middle East, it's a betrayal of the entire human race. A betrayal of humanity's only hope for peace and prosperity. When we build a global political, economic and military empire, we're going to need states like Israel, states that truly value freedom and are willing to do whatever is necessary to defend it.

Israel and freedom? really? it is one of the worst terrorist states in the world when you look objective on the issue. Only relate to the actions they are doing Israel is in violation of more UN mandates than any other country in the history of the UN.

It is a terror state no doubt about it when the faster we can get it under control the better it will be for the world peace

[lockedout]

I beg your pardon?

I linked these once without a poll and got banned, same "scandals/controversies."

No they are taken from Palestinians and used to give rich jews things that only money can buy, and i notice your point of doubt of it to be even true with your "" if that actually happened"" http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2009/1..._n_399623.html

so lets just remove that doubt once and for all and call organ theft for what it is. highly unethical and really imo CRIMINAL. and when a state does crime we have a criminal state at hand.

[Mormolyce]

I don't see how the land is controversial? It's Israel's and that's about all there is to it.

LOL, I think that's the biggest example of begging the question I've ever seen.

And yeah sure, the last 2,000 years or so didn't happen.

I don't see anything wrong with the "attacks" listed on the site? There will always be the ocassional civilian casualty in war, but Israel is always going out of their way to avoid collateral damage.

Thats because many of them are actually conspiracies.

The article refers to a few incidents from two decades ago, and hasn't happened since. I don't see a problem with what happened, they are taking something that was used for evil and then used it for good.

[Calfredd]

Ok since no one else asked. Why the heck is Van Buren up there? Surely there are other conspiracies/controversies/scandals that could replace it.

[Endus]

A poll that is overwhelmingly filled with supposed scandals relating to Obama makes it clear this was never intended to be a fair and open discussion, so I'm locking this.
