This is your chance to voice your opinion. We've chosen a controversial / interesting entry that appeared on our site (talkback, blog, etc...) and we want to know what you have to say about it. TODAY'S HOT POTATO: Taken from article: Our World: Iran's American protector Talkback #: 36 Talkbacker: Nigel Text: US was only ever a fair-weather friend of Israel, and has always tried to control Israeli military operations by threatening not to restock arms/ammo. But why expect anything else? US has its own interests, and will support Israel only insofar as its interests are seen to be served. US was founded on non-interventionism and having no entangling alliances! Why does it surprise so many when it endeavours to return to its foundations as isolationist with friendship extended for trade purposes only? The US does not lead or intervene naturally, as is uncomfortable as leader of the free world. What do you think? The ball is in your court now. Click here to respond
