U.S. Senator Tells Arabs to Focus on Home By MARIAM FAM, Associated Press WriterSat May 21, 4:42 PM ET While top Israeli and Palestinian officials discussed security at a Middle East forum Saturday, an American senator advised Arab leaders to focus on injustices in their own countries and reminded them that U.S. policy is security for Israel first and justice for Palestinians "if possible." On the sidelines of a World Economic Forum conference on the Middle East, Israeli Vice Premier Shimon Peres and Palestinian Prime Minister Ahmed Qureia discussed the recent flare-up of violence threatening their fragile truce as well as Israel's planned withdrawal from the Gaza Strip. "There's an attempt to get the peace process back on track in a bid to make the withdrawal from Gaza, if it happens, a serious, real (and) practical step," Qureia told reporters as he headed into the meeting with Peres at a Dead Sea resort in Jordan. http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20050521..._ea/world_forum

The US telling other countries they need to focus more on domestic issues, go figure.

Well im glad they at least admit that its Israel first and Palestine a maybe second "if possible".

yeah. coz then hitler's regime could have just murdered people in germany, lasted much longer and possibly still be around today- whilst the world stood back and done what so many of you pacifists seem to love: nothing. that woulda been awesome

even if hitler killed 6/7 of his own population, he wouldnt have killed as many as died in WWII! and then add to that that hitler probably wouldnt have lasted that long anyway if someone never attacked them.

all that said, WWII was a very special thing, and i do think it was right for them to get involved, but that is a very extreame example!

Actually Hitler declared war on the U.S. on December 11, 1941 in a Reichstag speech.
