                      most important thing the Obama administration is<br>
                      &gt; doing.<br>
                      <br>
                      For many years, Tim Johnson had no problem with
                      killing people in<br>
                      Iraq, Afghanistan, ...<br>
                      Tim Johnson STILL has no problem with the United
                      States support of<br>
                      Israel killing people.<br>
                      <br>
                      ergo: Tim Johnson's motivation is not the stopping
                      of killing people.<br>
