Israel is a country, not a religion. I have no problem with the US helping
any of our allies. I have no problem with helping Israel (mostly Jews),
France (a half century ago and mostly Catholic), Japan (same time frame and
mostly Buddhist), India (mostly Hindu), etc., etc. so long as they are
allies. Are you saying that Israel is not our ally?

I had to look up who Maplethorpe is. The photographs I saw on the net are
very artistic. Do you have a problem with the beauty of the human body?
