        @sapinker Blocking the implementation of official US policy at UN and enabling the brutal occupation to continue. What an achievement! (Not)

        @sapinker no country gets more unconditional support from US than Israel. 3 reasons: Christian Zionism, a needed mid-east ally, & WW2 guilt

        @JeBroo5 @sapinker "WW2 guilt", that's a really euphemistic way of saying post-antisemitic society.

        @szspagna @sapinker whatever you call it, it is a factor of unconditional US support. Neither Armenia, Slavs, Poles, etc. got same treatment

        @JeBroo5 @sapinker Many of the Poles and Slavs slaughtered not only by the Nazi were also Jews; where is your "WW2 guilt" for them?

        @szspagna @sapinker I don't understand your Q. I merely said that we felt particularly guilty about Jews more than other groups after ww2

        @JeBroo5 @sapinker Yes and you implied that we only protect Israel because of guilt over Jews when Poles+Slavs had sizable Jew population
