Secretary of State Rice has acknowledged a communique from Israeli foreign minister Tzipi Levni which requests that all foreign aid payments and loans from the United States be made in Euros rather than in Dollars. Foreign Minister Levni cited the rapidly declining dollar and it's disfavor as a world currency as reasons for the request. "In the spirit of Yom Kippur, the United States will not hold Israel to any agreements obligating them to accept Dollars as payment for their foreigh aid. We will translate our obligations into Euros or whatever currency that best fits Israel's needs" Secretary RIce said in the Friday, Sept 21 announcement. "We need to place our Israeli obligations at the top of our national prioriy list. Israel should not suffer any inconvenience due to currency fluctuations" said Rice before heading off to Camp David. A similar request from Egypt was declined last week.

"Come, let's play a part in the fulfillment of all this glory and duty. I wish for a bright future for all human beings and the dawn of the liberation of and freedom for all humans, and the rule of love and affection all around the world, as well as the elimination of oppression, hatred, and violence, a wish which I expect will be realized in the near future. -- MAHMOUD AHMADINEJAD
FKN JEWS ... don't send dollars (oops, FRN's have never been dollars) don't send anything except maybe a nuke expected to be expended upon impact.

Here's an idea. Tell Israel they can get off their lazy asses and get a job, like all the other deadbeats in the world who live on the efforts of others.
So do we invade Israel now for using Euros too?

lol! And will the EU now take over the aid payments to Israel? Or will Israel be requiring we give them billions in Euros every year? Israeli foreign minister Tzipi Levni which requests that all foreign aid payments and loans from the United States be made in Euros rather than in Dollars. OMG, they do.

Utter nerve; effrontery: “has the chutzpah to claim a lock on God and morality” (New York Times). [Yiddish khutspe, from Mishnaic Hebrew h#us#pâ, from h#s#ap, to be insolent.] But it is against the law to boycott Israel.

I'm just now reading Trita Parsi's new book, Treacherous Alliance: The Secret Dealings of Israel, Iran, and the United States. In his account of Iran- Contra, Parsi emphasizes how, in the 1980's, Israel was urging Washington not to take seriously Iran's wild talk about eliminating Israel, but instead to lean towards Iran in the Iraq-Iran war.
To reason, indeed, he was not in the habit of attending. His mode of arguing, if it is to be so called, was one not uncommon among dull and stubborn persons, who are accustomed to be surrounded by their inferiors. He asserted a proposition; and, as often as wiser people ventured respectfully to show that it was erroneous, he asserted it again, in exactly the same words, and conceived that, by doing so, he at once disposed of all objections. - Macaulay, "History of England," Vol. 1, Chapter 6, on James II.
the Israeli obligations are already at the top of the list here in Isramerika.
You made that up, I checked, no such thing. Now I do hear from reputable sources the those Texans led by Gov. Perry want to rename Texas, "West Israel". You cannot refute that. It is a done deal according to sources.
O'Reilly told Dr. Paul that history is irrelevant to the discussion on Iran. He said, “We don’t need a history lesson.” “I see the Iranians as acting logically and defensively,” Paul went on. “We’ve been fighting the Iranians since 1953. We overthrew their government. … We were allies with Saddam Hussein in the 1980’s and we encouraged him to invade Iran…” “We don’t need a history lesson,” O’Reilly broke in.

Wake Up is a blog, but I have read this story in several other places. I just decided to link the story to this site for no particular reason.
