I almost hate to tell you this, but in addition to being an Israeli-American Palestinian Muslim, I'm also a conservative Republican.  However, I despise all politicians except Chris Christie, right now.

Thank you for the real correction!  You don't sound like any Republican I know, which is to say I don't know any Republican who gives one whit about Palestinians, or who supports a "two-state solution," much less a "one-state solutions" or who thinks Palestianians are anything more than "human shields".   However, if you are a conservative Republican, then you don't believe the American military is "evil", as has been accused, right?

I support a one state solution and the military.  MLyons knows this, but he just likes to argue lol.

And so do you.

If there were no folks like us, there would be no BNET Community.

otherwise, why do both of us hang around here, if not for the pleasant company...?

I will keep that in mind the next time you start a thread about a topic that I am very interested in, and remember to just walk on by.  There are other discussion sites available where people can share their opinions in a mature venue.   Here, we can stick to "I hate Obama" and "I love Obama" threads, here, without much substance behind the hate or the love.

I wanted to think that this is an open forum where all are welcome to contribute (respectfully) without the insults about "stupidity" and "dyslexia" and "lying" and "one sided "truths", and accusations about what does or does not "rock my world" but it simply isn't.  That it could be a place where non-military members can participate without getting shamed and/or slimed.  This place has become a lot like junior high; I am not interested in getting slimed with the preexisting hostiliies some people here carry around like a badge of honor/

Keep up the good fight, Miraj.   Thanks for starting the thread.  I appreciate knowing about it, and I have to say I did not hear of any such thing in the MSM, even tho we're not supposed to talk about it out loud, here.  Sissy civilians not welcome, here, apparently.  And sure enough, hardly anybody who is liberal and not pro-war posts here anymore.

I hunt and when I practice I use a target that looks like what I'm shooting at. If you use a black chest/head silhoutte, then it could be said that the "real" target was because of some supposed hatred of blacks (?).
