I can't be alone in saying that the Brad Sherman moment with the auto executives the other day, in which he asked who had flown commercial to D.C. and then who was prepared to sell his plane and fly back commercial, was a huge political moment, and will forever be inscribed in the history of the bailout. Maybe it will have an actual effect. And let's be clear: It was a populist moment. I was proud of Sherman, in the Jewish tribal chamber of my heart.
I bring this up because of my hobbyhorse, of course. Sherman supported the Iraq war and attacked Obama earlier this year on behalf of Hillary, specifically over Jeremiah Wright. In 2003, according to Walt and Mearsheimer, Sherman demanded an internal audit of NPR over its coverage of the Middle East. In the same year and right after the war he supported was looking so frikkin good, he introduced legislation to encourage "democracy" in Iran--hinting at regime change. I'm sure he thinks Hillary would make a great Sec'y of State. Maybe he has even told Obama that.
It is not populist to be pushing huge amount of taxpayer aid to Israel while Israel pursues a policy of apartheid in the West Bank. Some day there will be dramatic hearings on that subject. And instead of corporate jets, we will talk about AIPAC-and-their friends' sponsored trips to Israel. Like the one Obama went on in 2006. Can't wait for that drama.
As I pointed out in the Niebuhr comment, Judonia basically manipulated the USA in supporting and allying itself with the State of Israel via fraud.
This fraud is responsible for over 1/2 and probably 2/3s of the national debt.
Shouldn't the USA be looking at a $3-6 trillion clawback from the Zionist Virtual Colonial Motherland?
With $6 trillion, we could fix the financial system, give a good pay out to American citizens, pay compensation to Palestinians, and undo the damage done by Zionism to Palestine, which would of course be restored to the native Palestinian population.
Didn't you want to gag when Obama promised $30 billion to the State of Israel (even if the real aid would probably be much more)?
This just as easily shows that Sherman is grandstanding vis a vis the auto CEOs. Isn't that obvious, and isn't it transparent? Exactly who is not privileged among these congresspersons? A charge of hypocrisy thus will not phase him. No way will it get him to look critically at Israel. Remember the L.A. five, Jewish reps in line with AIPAC: Sherman, Berman, Waxman, Harman, & Schiff. It sounds like a Jewish law firm because it is. That's over 3 million in and around L.A. represented by them. Good luck.
JM's article is priceless. Interestingly, I could only send the url
to a few Americans I network with online. None of them Jewish.
The Jewish people simply would delete it and not communicate with me again. Including those in my own family. Most of the Gentiles would just not bother to read it–they have more important things
to tend to, like sending around gossip and stupid jokes, or Hallmark card sentiments.
Hopefully that drama will be informed by the Nuremberg Principles.
Most Americans (as well as the whole Bush Jr Regime) don't even know what the Nuremberg Principles are. Most Americans couldn't even answer the question, "Name a country beginning with the letter U." OR, "Who won the Vietnam War?" And so on. It's actually well-
documented on YouTube by various videos. It's of course especially true of the young American found on the street.
phil, you keep pretending like jews consider themselves equal to other people…fact is that judaics are separatists and racist by default due to their religious beliefs.
they talk a big game but play by different rules.
if you have any redeeming quality as a jew it is because you are an american.
any other opinions you'd like to bestow on the world, Samuel?
Yeah, the old melting pot. All American Jews are not so reductive; consider the debate among this community referencing the "silent holocaust."
Personally, I think the term or phrase is a slander on the Jews who
died from the Shoah. To render full-blown acceptance as a practical matter into The Holocaust is a sleight of hand vulgar and illogical to the utmost extreme. It's downright talmudic a la the original depiction of Jesus there–in the version not purged for PC.
not even 'the jews who died in the shoah' have a world copyright on the word 'holocaust', observer, so you will have to just swallow your bile.
