@UncleIroh I had the experience of speaking to someone yesterday who suckles Semite semen like there's no tomorrow. We were doing something wholly unrelated to politics, and otherwise he's a nice fellow; so, I don't mind talking to him, but don't get him started on how wonderful Israel is.
TFM was right, you have to do X things with your X friends, and Y things with your Y friends, and that's okay. Guys do well to come together to accomplish specific tasks.
