Illegally occupied? No.

Ah, the correct answer is 'Yes', actually. Or dont you people 'do' international law anymore? (gone with civilian death-counts, has it?).

Really? Which international laws were Egypt, Syria, Jordan, Iraq, et al, following when they began the hostilities that started the Six Day war? Israel simply defended itself. Or is that against international law too?

Give "money to Hamas and not to Israel"? What are you on-about? Should you consider funding in terms, in the one nation, of whether or not to fund a particular political party, or, in the other nation, to simply fund the national government?

Are you saying then, that the U.S. should NOT consider the policies and practices of a foreign government (as dictated by the "particular political party" in charge) when considering whether or not to fund that nation?
