Unfortunately, the Jewish people seem to have invited a lot of jealousy and envy towards themselves on account of the fact that Christianity and Islam exist purely thanks to Judaism.
I think there is a subconscious element to the hostility and much of it is about power over world religion. In the case of Islam, the moslem attempt to control Jerusalem when they have so much territory in the Middle East and countless mosques in Europe is plain selfishness and downright envy.
At any rate, no other nation but Israel has a world saviour used by other religions but intrinsically linked to one specific race. Both Lim's Catholicism and Colorado Rider's Christianity wouldn't exist were it not for the Jews, Jewish prophets and Jewish Christians such as St Paul.
Lim seems annoyed because Jews don't accept his Church's belief in Jesus as being the son of God and because they view him as a prophet. Boogers is irate because Jews won't accept what he reads in the Koran and allow moslems to convert Jerusalem into an Islamic capital. He ignores all other countries' human rights records and only takes Israel to account.
Myself, being secular, I don't really care what angle on religion Jews have. Logic tells me Jews have followed their religion many centuries before Islam and Christianity appeared and that, therefore, they have priority on their own turf.
As to your point about the U.S. I think Colin Powell would make an excellent president and he would be very good for the U.S. and the U.S. image overseas.

davidmc said:This makes perfect sense. It goes along the lines of"Pick on the big-kid on the block", if you want to make a name for yourself. I suspect that there is some subconscious envy involved there as the rest of the worlds religions consist of "johnny-come-lately's" based upon judaism. Much like the American bashing that appears to be en vogue these days. Bashing the administration is fine by me but, the whole country; thats another matter.
