    If Trump told another country what they should do (including vague threats) you would say the same?

    Trump is no leftist and Amash has proven himself to be anti-American and pro-communist/globalist through his open borders stance and support for the treasonous coup.
    Amash's alliance with "the squad" is just further proof.
    You have also demonstrated similar crypto-communism.

    But he needs to not admit it in order to keep fooling libertarians.

    Yes, I would. Because words have meanings. I might disagree with him and criticize him harshly for saying it, but I would not accuse him of interventionism on that basis unless he actually intervened or advocated for intervention. Amash has done neither of those things in this instance.

    As for your parenthetical concerning "vague threats" - I am not seeing any threats (vague or otherwise) in Amash's remark. He said, "Israel should do X, and U.S. relations with Israel will be harmed it they don't." To continue my spinach analogy, this is no more a threat than saying "You should eat your spinach, because you won't grow up strong if you don't."

    But even if one insists on choosing to interpret that statement as a "threat" nonetheless, it is still not any kind of "interventionist" threat.

    Being anti-Israel does not = anti-Jewish.

    EM.

    Congressman Amash could also be threatening them with cut off of $38 B worth of Spinach feed supply controlled by US Congress, so in a a way that can be seen as intervention in their feeding (speaking metaphorically). So it's easy to understand why many Israelis and even some America-First supporters of Israel could be offended by this Christian Congressman's statement about the Democratic Jewish State that happens to be our closest ally.

    the U.S. President has the ability to create internatiaonal law known as peace treaties , through ambassadors or himself . Justin Amash has no right to meet with foreign country governments or potentes.... this is not his job!

    Your interpretation is that he is telling them they can keep getting our money if they do as he tells them?

    Very true point. The thing I hate about the "we have the right to exist" argument is that it's specifically about the Israeli government. I maintain that no government has the right to exist. Jews have the right to exist, even if Israel does not. Germans have the right to exist, even if Germany crumbles. Russians have the right to exist, even if Hillary decides to nuke Russia. Why? Because they are people, and people have the right to exist regardless of race or nationality.

    However, let's talk about governments. Does North Korea have the right to exist? Did Rome have a fundamental right to exist? The Hittite Empire? The Phillistines? The Akkadian Empire? Yugoslavia? I would say that, no, none of those governments had a right to exist. They all came to an end and no one cries about how Rome's rights were violated when a group of Saxons brought them down. People may lament for the Romans trapped within the city when it was under seige, but no one says that the government's rights were violated in the process.

    Governments have rights to sovreignty, that's it. And since America doesn't acknowledge the sovreignty of any other country except Israel, apparently, then we certainly don't believe those governments have a right to exist.

    Incorrect. They say Israel has the right to exist. Israel is the govt entity, not the people and NO Govt has a right to exist. People have such a right, not a govt.
