Subject: RE: BS: Hart questions Irish Americans
Guest, there are too many groups who fit that description for it to be just about Jews. Take the Elian Gonzales debacle a few years ago. What a pain in the arse that situation was. And take the fact that I, as a citizen of the country that brags about being the "most freedom loving nation in the world", am forbidden from buying Cuban cigars or traveling to Cuba.

I can tell by the stance that the US has tended to take with regard to India and Pakistan, that the pro-India lobby must be putting a lot pressure on the US government, and giving them big headaches in the process, since both India and Pakistan have nuclear weapons.

And certainly, the pro-Zionist lobby is doing no less to secure preferential treatment for themselves than the Cuba lobby and the India lobby. All of these interests are more narrow than what is good for this country.

Making it just about Jews is small minded and wrong-headed.
