re: Why do state governors like Jim Pillen from Nebraska have to go to Israel?

State running a deficit of around 300 mil so lets go to Israel on the taxpayers dime. frick politicians.
Sigh…

The primary goals were to promote Nebraska’s economic interests, especially beef exports—Nebraska supplies over 99% of U.S. beef to Israel, with exports hitting $13.5 million in 2024 and up 27% in early 2025—and to encourage partnerships in defense technologies, agriculture, and education.
Again, better than going to a climate change conference and fricking the security detail.
You made this post and don’t even know what and who your state exports to. That’s why you aren’t the governor.

My Pastor just went to Israel and Ukraine for a month - Should I be pissing and moaning about him being a Christian wanting to spend his personal time/life over there or should I be a Panican and skyscream about him taking this trip?

This isn’t true, but continue on with the Jew hatred.

Is questioning the benefits of our alliance hatred in your mind? If so why is that only true with regard to Israel and not any other nation for the United States?
And how is defaulting to a claim of hatred without any evidence any different than Al Sharpton claiming racism anytime a topic comes up relating to the black community?

Some podcast with a former FBI agent being interviewed. He says the Israelis make blatant attempts to get agents to work for them on the side. Offers for all expenses paid trips to Israel fly around like candy from a piñata.
Unfortunately, he says many of his colleagues gladly accept the offer.

You said the region provides nothing.
So are you an idiot or just hate Jews?
What happens if the ME stops producing oil?
And I assume you aren’t an idiot so the only other option is Jew hater.

For the same reason criticizing Israel will get you banned from the BAMA board.
Ask Side Taint. He defends the tribe like he's Randy Fine.

Not a boomer. Born in the 80s.
But if you lower the supply of oil the price will go up. That was iraqs goal because they were in heavy debt. Saddam wanted to manipulate the global oil supply so the price goes up.
It’s really not that hard to understand.
So tell me again the region provides nothing.

How does stating that the region provides nothing equate to hatred of Jews?
It doesn’t. A region is an area, encompassing multiple nations.
In this case it’s the Middle East meaning Israel is barely even a spec of the total landmass, barely the size of NJ and which includes many nations such as Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Syria and many others.
In 2024 the US exported 3% of our GDP to the entire region, barely exceeding Africa and Oceania. So yes, they provide us virtually nothing economically.
Since you’re so focused on Israel you might be interested to know their imports constitute .72% of American exports annually. That ranks 22nd among our partners, just behind mighty Malaysia and ahead of Vietnam. In other words, they are insignificant from a trade perspective.

This is the worst attempt at a gotcha argument I’ve ever seen in my life.
And you didn’t answer any of my questions, very odd. Care to try to answer with any objective logic or just gonna stick with false analogies and race baiting?

How does choosing an alliance with Israel impact positively oil production or American access to it in the Middle East when Israel has no oil and is at odds with every nation that does?
And why TF would the Middle East stop producing oil? There would be no economy in multiple gulf states without oil production and the US as a market to sell it to.

This is why the tide is turning against y'all. Your comment is straight out of the social justice warrior/Antifa playbook. Call anyone who disagrees with me a racist or a bigot. People are sick of it and that pendulum is swinging.

Yeah, Armos, Mexicans, Turks, Somalis, "Palestinians," none of them have influence in say, elections in California, Minnesota, NYC, and they for sure don't have any representation in the federal government. We spend money on transgender education in SE Asia, because the American people want that. :cough:

Exactly.
Any questioning of anything having to do with Israel is now met by sky screeching and claims of antisemitism.
And this from people who otherwise claim to be conservatives and who aren’t even Jewish.
It’s madness and raises all sorts of questions about why they’re so afraid of anyone looking at the relationship between Israel and the United States. People with nothing to hide don’t react that way to reasonable questions. It’s like a cheating wife freaking out if their husband asks to use their phone.

I don’t want to import anyone that doesn’t respect or want to assimilate to traditional American values/culture and would chase CAIR and the Muslim brotherhood *cough Obama* out of the political influence game as well just like AIPAC.
