Question America Is the Only Country with a Favorable View of Israel

http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2014/...ew-israel.html America Is the Only Country with a Favorable View of Israel
Posted on July 25, 2014 by WashingtonsBlog
The U.S. Is the Only Country Which Supports Israel No Matter What It Does

Americans – living in a huge country which has never really been invaded, and as the sole superpower – are famous for being out-of-touch with how the rest of the world thinks.

So my fellow Americans will probably be surprised to learn that the U.S. is more or less the only country in the world which has a favorable view of Israel.

Specifically, a 2012 BBC poll found that the U.S. and Nigeria were the only countries of those polled in which the majority of people had favorable views of Israel:

But Nigeria swung negative in the 2013 BBC poll, leaving the U.S. alone of all countries polled:

Indeed, the 2013 poll shows that Israel is the fourth least popular country in the world, trailing only Iran, Pakistan and North Korea:

Iran is once again the most negatively viewed country, with negative ratings climbing four points to 59%. Most people also give negative ratings to Pakistan (56%, up five points), North Korea (55%, up three points) and Israel (52%, up one point).

Israel Has Violated United Nations Resolutions More than Any Country In the World

Another measure of world opinion on Israel is that the United Nations has condemned Israel’s violence towards its neighbors again and again.

Haaretz noted in 2002:

Israel holds the record for ignoring United Nations Security Council resolutions, according to a study by San Francisco University political science professor Steven Zunes.

***

Israel leads the list. Since 1968, Israel has violated 32 resolutions that included condemnation or criticism of the governments’ policies and actions.

***

Zunes specifically avoided counting resolutions that are vague or unclear so that governments could claim different interpretations to the meaning of the resolutions. Thus, the famous UN Security Council resolutions 242 and 338 are not included in his study. He also did not count resolutions that only included condemnations. Instead, he focused on those that included specific calls for changes in the subject governments’ policies.

The resolutions Israel violated were either about its annexation of East Jerusalem or settlements in the territories. Israel also ignored UN Security Council resolutions that called for Israel to cease using harsh measures against the Palestinian population and to cease expelling Palestinians.

Pulitzer prize winning journalist Chris Hedges points out that Israel has broken nearly a hundred UN Security Council resolutions regarding Gaza alone.

Here is a brief sampling of UN Security Council resolutions against Israel:

Resolution 106: The Palestine Question (March 29, 1955) ‘condemns’ Israel for Gaza raid

Resolution 111: The Palestine Question (January 19, 1956) ” … ‘condemns’ Israel for raid on Syria that killed fifty-six people”

Older, White American Males Are Virtually the Only People In the World Who Unconditionally Support Israel

Even with the United States, there are only certain groups which support Israel.

A new poll by Pew this month shows that it is mainly Americans 50 years or older, males, conservatives and evangelicals who support Israel:

98% of Americans have no view at all.

They lack the information to even form an opinion on Israel. Let alone an intelligent opinion.

The most glaring thing to jump out of this report, for me, is the date it was conducted. The poll finished on July 14th - 11 days ago.

It's entirely possible that given recent events, many of those polled may feel differently. I'd love to hear the results: the same questions asked of the same people today.

Sad to say, but almost all Americans do hold these views. Fuck this stupid country. The good news, France is 65% unfavorable, Germany is 69% unfavorable, and Spain where I lived for a few years as a youth, is 74% unfavorable.

Viva España!

Even you Brits did well at 68%. Well done!

Even Canada comes in at 59% unfavorable. Good for them!

The US...hopeless, gullible, unthinking trash.

No other country's population experiences the same relentlessly intense pro-Jizzrael media mind-fuck as that of the jewSA; this is because Uncle Sham's tax slave sheep are the one indispensable crutch without which the Rogue Entity would collapse into the shitcan of history where it belongs. Add to this the especially susceptible hordes of fucking hoodoo Christards......

The second sentence is true, the first is not. Evangelical Christians almost all think Israel is part of Jesus' comeback plan.

Germany endured as much, or maybe, even more indoctrination as America has, but the Germans seem to have stronger genetic resistance to the yiddish thought control programs.

The Germans are a people with the same roots & beliefs; 'Murcans are not.

Here are a couple of excerpts from the full report.


Quote:
As well as being asked to rate each country, a small subsample of respondents (10% of the
sample) in each country was asked to say which of four possible areas—foreign policy,
economy/products/services, traditions and culture, and the way it treats its people—was
most influential in their judgment of that country.

For those who held negative views of Israel influence in the world, the foreign policy of the
Israeli State is by some distance the main reason explaining their negative rating (45%).
Unfortunately the report does not say what factors motivated Americans to give Israel a positive ranking. But I sincerely doubt that it was approval of Israeli foreign policy.

Americans are typically not well informed about what is happening in other countries. They tend to view the world in very one-dimensional terms of "good guys" and "bad guys".

Likewise American media outlets often refer to the Jewish state as "The Only Democracy In The Middle East"®. Foreign policy is rarely discussed except to inform us that "Israel Has The Right To Defend Itself"©. What red-blooded Americans would admit to hating democracy or oppose Israeli "settlers" right to defend their homesteads from rock throwing shitskins? It's easy to mistake Israel for one of the "good guys". Even Eurogoyim are being serenaded by Geert Wilders and other zionist Jews talking about a clash between civilized Judeo-Christians and Islamic barbarians.
