and btw, im surprise how ignorant are the people here in TA... |
Well, you have to remember, the average newswatching American citizen absorbs mostly propaganda about politics, international relationships, and covert operations. People are ignorant, but not on purpose. They believe they have the right details - but these details are nothing more than skewed, selected portions of an event that are deemed acceptable for mainstream media.
I have read a lot on the Mossad, which covers many of the "behind the scenes" aspects of Israeli's operations and their relationships with other countries, including America.
Some of the material shocked me... but then again, I should have known to never be surprised by the behaviours of politicians from the White House. Even worse was the Mossad(Israel's equivalent to CIA). They are constantly deceiving and maliciously plotting against other countries. Agents of the Mossad have violated many international laws including conducting secret assassinations in foreign countries. They have the biggest and most vast information gathering network, and are one of the most ruthless - AND efficient - spy agencies in the world. Then again, they are surrounded by sworn enemies, so it is necessary.
Anyways... the point is, America and Israel have 2 important aspects in common.
1) They both have top-notch spy agencies
2) They share a common threat.
Now, are the benefits of an alliancee clear?
