I was playing a card game with my sister and her family and the subject of Israel came up. My 20-something nephew said that he thought that Israel is
"more trouble than it's worth." And that basically the US should just walk away from it.
The 3 baby boomers had a different viewpoint. We had been raised in the period shortly after WW II when the memories of Nazi Germany were fresh in the minds of Americans. And we were especially horrified that our own government had refused entry to a shipload of European Jews who were fleeing a fate that was unimaginably evil to civilised people all over the world.
What about it OT? Do you feel the same sense of guilt about what was done to the Jews and that we should support Israel's Right to Exist?
If you have an opinion please state it and include your gereration, whether it be baby boomer, Gen X, Gen Y or millenial.
