Especially since the USA is essentially NATO. You just went from talking about joining NATO. I asked you what the law said about JOINING NATO. Now you pivot yet again to something else, talking about being privy to everything NATO knows. So... what does the law say about Israel getting to know everything NATO knows? Where are you getting this from? What does any of this have to do with anything regarding your other assertions? Quote

What implications am I supposed to see? Once again, the pattern of this discussion goes like this: -> You make a baseless assertion or ask loaded questions -> I ask you to back it up, show me where the law says anything like that -> You make another baseless assertion or ask more loaded questions -> I ask you to back it up, show me where the law says anything like that Here we are again... you ask me a question about implications. So, what implications? What does the law say that you are talking about? Quote

LOL, we are not talking about our favorite ice cream flavors, you keep making assertions based on facts that are either true or not true, but then you refuse to back them up. Quote

Back what up? Im not playing this pedantic game with you. IMO, Israel is completely untrustworthy and this unification idea is only gonna spell bad news for everyone concerned.

The Kazars trusted them...and had to expel them. The Russians trusted them...and had to expel them. History kind of suggests these are not trustworthy people.

I prefer to atleast try to take a breather on the culture/political windowdressing sometimes. Anyway... This I found both amusing and disturbing. I thought the Intel agencies already shared everything. Isn't that one of the arguments for supporting Israel? This...if true...leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Somewhat like eating leftover matzah balls. Thoughts? America and Israel definitely do not share everything at the moment. They share a lot but definitely not everything So I took the time to actually read the legislation that's been proposed and read some analysis pro and con with regards to it As usual it would look like both sides are kind of overhyping things. To be clear this wouldn't actually give the Israelis access to much in and of itself. But it would establish an appointed official specifically to facilitate providing access and doing joint ventures moving forward. So people are right when they say lay the groundwork or open up the possibility that in the future there would be more cooperation and integration. However it doesn't require that and most of the areas are already areas where America and Israel share some information already. It seems mostly to make it easier to do joint ventures to cooperatively explore new technologies Proponents say this will give Israel the ability to build its own advanced weapons without the us having to provide them. Opponents feel that this will be a permanent back door that Israel can use to improve its own military technology which can then be used to oppress others in the region My feeling is that this is an effort to make it harder for future administrations to walk away from Israel entirely and ensure that Israel has continued us support even if a israel negative government were to be elected. Some will say that's good, some will say that's bad. But I don't think it's handing America's technology Over to anyone selling out america to the Israelis. So when people say it's harmless and just the way to facilitate things they're probably being a little disingenuous, and when they say that this is an integration or blending of american and is really military that's probably a gross overstatement as well What is true is it does facilitate and make it easier for America to provide support to Israel and for Israel to be a little more independent of America militarily and whether or not that's a good thing would be a matter of discussion Quote "That which doesn't kill me... Had better start running."
