If you want to do what is right…….give the US back to the Native Americans. These kind of notions are always easier than they seem. I am Jewish and pro Israel but understand the conundrum in which politicians find themselves.
Fortunately, I believe that the Messiah is coming and all things will be made right. Baruch HaShem

having served in the Middle East for seven years I totally agree with his outlook .We in the western world do not do enough to support Israel in their continual fight against arab extremists.Arab nations should ask themselves why Arabs continue to live in Israel, A better life maybe?

Such a courageous, intelligent, articulate man with leadership qualities should be the sought-after speaker on our college campuses, on talk shows and cable news, and eventually at the top of the list for leading our country. Thank you.

I wish our presdent was on the same page as Lt. Col West. However, it appears that he is on the other side of the fence. God help us until we can get him and all of his muslim buddies out of office and even the country. We are still a christain nation and should all stand behind men like West.

The Rebbe always told the Israeli politicians & ambassadors to the UN that they should quote the Torah when it comes to our rights to the land. Back in the seventies he told the Israeli UN ambassador to read from Chayei Sara regarding chevron.
So you are basically diagreeing with what the Rebbe told us to do all these years.

Hmmm...
January 20, 2011 11:24 pm

I appreciate his Zionistic passion and conviction, however, he bases his argument upon a book which not people (Jew or non-Jew) recognises as divine. As such, he can only appeal to people who already agree with him.

sounds like the rebbes shitos

We're Pround to Have Him as Our Congressman
January 20, 2011 7:19 pm

Allen West is a treasure to South Florida—and to our country. He’s a solid uncompromising conservative who is not at all intimidated by the opposition. His position on Israel is totally in line with the rest of his views—supporting what is right and ethical—and he’s fearless about expressing them. He deserves our strong support.

you go guy!
