That was on-topic, IMO.
I know, I know, I just didn't want that mongoose talk to send anyone out on a tangent

1)Since we do give Israel so much, if we wanted to take direct action, we could threaten to cut off their moolah, etc. unless they agree to a Peace Treaty/and or land agreement with the Palestinians (this only works if Israel agrees,
obviously).

This is pure speculation, but I think those sort of threats have been made directly or indirectly... It's probably a lose cause though, both Shiron and Arafat are too f***ing stubborn to agree to anything

2) We stay out of Iraq until they do something. We can try negogiating, but if that doesn't work, we should just leave him (Saddam) be for the time being.

Until they do something?!?!? Like wipe out half of Israel and other countries??? I'm sorry, but we can't sit around and jerk off while we let Saddam pick and choose which country survives and which one dies

3) Stay out of all future conflicts with other countries. (as much as possible, of course, we wouldn't be able to avoid all conflict).

That's a little too idealistic, IMO. We have to "police" the world in some cases.
