Yes but the shepard reflects its flock. If the leadership is seriously flawed is it all that far-fetched to think the rest could be bad too?

No. And I never said all israelis rape people. But do you deny there are ill feelings towards the catholic church within america? I don't know about you but I would not leave my son alone with a catholic priest.

***NEWS FLASH***

In case you have not noticed, pretty much the entire fucking world hates us and our policies. And the countries that act like they like us are only our friends because of some financial benefit we present them. I find it sad because there was time when not only were we the big boy on the block but most of the world loved us.

No duh, but does that make it right? ARE YOU bad just because your president is? Clearly my entire family LOVES child molesters.

Generalizing just because someone else does it doesn't make it any better. Your child would be as safe with a Catholic priest as he would be with a male teacher.

Why do you care if people hate America? Do you hate it? If you have problems with our policies, thats fine. However, being upset simply because people in other countries don't like us is ridiculous.

Um, ***NEWS FLASH*** the only reason any country has allies are for the benefits the other countries can give. You're just now figuring this out?
Also, they're charges, he's not guilty yet and you don't know what the fuck is up so cut the crap.

Oh, props to you for changing the thread title, shame you can't spell Israeli.

Ha! I didn't even notice that. I assumed a mod changed it.
