It's more than just a little ironic to see how much bcspace likes to read and re-post yellow journalism when it's about our black president. Chuck-A-Muck.

The basis' are the scriptural fulfilling of prophecy "nursing fathers and mothers" etc. as well as the simple moral obligation to preserve and defend democracy in the world.

We aren't, and we shouldn't. Manifest Destiny all over again...
I may think we go too far in defending Israel but it's ludicrous to see protecting Israel as some kind of imperialism.

Israel is not really a democracy. Compared to it's neighbors it is doing much better in education, human rights, etc. but the reality is Israel has two ethnic groups and one is preferred while the other is not.
The Jews going home is a prophesied event but I expect that God will punish them mightily unless they choose to start acting like the holy nation the Jews sold to the U.N. when Israel was created.

Driving the native savages from their homeland is certainly a form of imperialism. Without a doubt.
I have a little more sympathy for Israel because the 'savages' when the nation was formed left of their own free will and most of the rest of the 'savages' joined the nation when they were conquered during a war of aggression they started.
