"Reevaluate Aid to Israel" is this resolution posed on Obama's citizen-briefing website, which promises to pass along the popular ideas to the President. There are 717 responses to the resolution, and most seem to agree. Wow. Only marijuana reform seems to have more responses. Amanda in LA:

If we are truly to wage a "war on terror" we need to apply that
standard to both our allies as well as our enemies. The slaughter of
Palestinian civilians by U.S. funded Israelis qualifies as terrorism in
my book. How can we proclaim a "war on terror" with our right hand
while the left is giving money to a country that is committing
terrorist acts on a near daily basis? Stop funding the bombing of
schools, hospitals, and mosques, stop funding the slaugher of innocent
children, stop funding Israel!
