		<description>&lt;p&gt;Let&#039;s pretend for a minute that Harman was an Iranian American Islamist, and the top Democrat on the Intelligence Committee, and she was caught on a wiretap having a meeting with an “Iranian agent” who said he had pull with Pelosi, who was an Islamist sympathizer, and he could help her keep her job as the top Dem on the Intelligence Committee if she did what she could to kill the case against two other Iranian American Islamists charged with passing secret documents to Iran, and she agreed. The story would be huge.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;But because the country in question is Israel instead of Iran, and because those involved are Jewish American Zionists instead of Iranian American Islamists, well, no big deal. It’s just how Washington works.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Like Iran, Israel is a Middle Eastern country that doesn’t subscribe to separation of religion and state. But unlike Iran, Israel is also waging a vicious war against a vulnerable minority under its control, and its actions implicate America due to the massive aid it receives from US taxpayers, and the UN vetoes routinely issued by Washington on Israel&#039;s behalf. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There is no way that Israel, its Zionist agents, and its Zionist operatives in Congress deserve the kid-glove treatment they currently are getting from the US government...that is, unless Congress has passed a new law abolishing the US Constitution and declaring we now live under a caste system with Jewish American Zionists occupying the top rung. &lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;There is still such a thing as equal representation in this country, isn’t there?  So why do Jewish American Zionists get a “pass” on all the espionage laws?&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;I don&#039;t think Chris Berel&#039;s last comment is appropriate. He should be banned, or at least disciplined for such such racist comments.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Where do these images in his head come from?&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Apparently to Berel and other Zionists, the concept that ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL, and a country constitutionally backing it within its own borders by force of law, is &quot;anti-Semitic.&quot; Treating Jewish Zionist Americans the way all other Americans are treated is &quot;anti-Semitic.&quot; Equal protection is “anti-Semitic.”&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Their sense of entitlement is positively colonial. Or rather, being religious-based, its really more akin to Islamism, only more couth.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;And yes. If a group of Islamists came to America and demanded laws be waived on their behalf, my reaction would be the same. So according to Berel, I&#039;m &quot;Islamophobic.&quot; (Isn&#039;t that kind of back-handed admission by Berel that Zionism and Islamism are similar? Or maybe its that certain idiot European countries are considering allowing Sharia laws to govern Islamic communities, so he thinks double standards benefiting Zionists should be allowed in America. Sure, let’s just make it up as we go along. The U.S. Constitution is an “evolving document,” right?)&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Chris Berel should be allowed to post. He reflects and reminds us of what it is we are fighting against. Let us keep in mind that he represents the views of those not only within the American zionist movement but more importantly the current Israeli government.&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;Better to have the bigotry obvious and refuted rather than hiding  it.  But, gosh, the repetition of the same old trite stuff is boring - which probably is why it slips by people on occasion. (That&#039;s why I was wishing for magic - which one can envision as providing a &#039;perfect&#039; world, one without unintended consequences.)&lt;/p&gt;

		<description>&lt;p&gt;One must assume that Margaret is explaining why ED, LT, LD, and ED are encouraged to post. And I agree, they certainly are boring and their antisemitism is certainly retread material from stormfront.&lt;/p&gt;
