Villages Kahuna, your question, "How do we send a strong message to Israel? Should we cut off all foreign aid? Should we stop selling them weapons, or at least drag our feet in doing so? What should we demand of them regarding continued expansion into Palestine and what should the threat from us be?" , is, IMHO, such an anti-Isreal editorial view.

It is hard to answer. My answer would be more in tone with history, religion and how they mold politics in the region and around the world for that matter. I realize the US, Isreal and Palestine make it political. But what we can't seem to grasp is that to Isreal and the Middle East, politics is religious.
