THEN WHAT IS ISRAEL?

County Fair has a video clip of Charles Krauthammer calling Europe a parasite on the U.S. and here's the transcript:

CHARLES KRAUTHAMMER, SYNDICATED COLUMNIST: Where does one begin? Obama says in America there is a failure to appreciate Europe's leading role in the world.

Maybe that's because when there was a civil war in Europe's doorstep in the Balkans and genocide it didn't lift a finger until America led.

Maybe it's because there was an invasion in Kuwait it didn't lift a finger until America led.

Maybe it's because with America spending over half a trillion a year keeping over the sea lanes and defending the world, Europe is spending pennies on defense.

It's hard to appreciate an entity's leading role in the world when it's been sucking on your tit for 60 years as Europe has with regard to the United States, parasitically.
