Even ‘SNL’ is talking about Israel firsters….

By 18

Saturday Night Live’s Rick Santorum ad with Andy Samberg is flat, but at minute 2, there’s this gem:

“What is this campaign about? Two things. One, making the family once again the center of our nation’s public policy, and two, starting a war with Iran as a favor to Israel, whether Israel asks us to or not.”

I don’t know , maybe I’m in a crap*y mood, but I do not consider it funny at all.
And the laugh of the audience irritates me even more.
They are planning another deadly war, possibly nuclear WWIII , using US soldiers, money and equipment. They are already at full speed at it, and I see it happen.
How funny is that???
“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will
be fought with sticks and stones.”

I don’t marvel anymore that MSM said something, oh so, politically” incorrect”.
Not impressed. They are liers, corrupted opportunists, bought out cowards, manipulators , propagandists and, of course ,there are plenty of useful idiots.
They did a splendid job in confusing/manipulating/lying to people, selling propaganda, eliminating opposition, and those who actually can think.
They sell cheap and sleazy “entartainment”, and basically they are lowly servants of those, who are in Power. I would gladly use harsher words, but I can not think of one.
So …scr*w them.

Watch for Andy Samberg to get labeled a self-hater for exposing that one to the general public.

Well, pretty lame skit in two ways. First, they have to use the cover of Christian Zionists to do this(imagine if Rick was a Jew, this skit would never fly), second, the line ‘whether Israel asks us or not’ is equally wrong.

They not only cowards, but it’s a deeply flawed skit, but who can blame them?
They don’t want to get Goldstoned.

RE: “What is this campaign about? …starting a war with Iran as a favor to Israel, whether Israel asks us to or not.” ~ SNL’s Santorum ad

ALSO SEE: How Propaganda Targets Iran, by Lawrence Davidson, Consortium News, 01/06/12

(excerpts)…Today, we are presented with a stark example of U.S. democracy’s systemic flaws. Again, these bring together the influence of small but powerful and wealthy subgroups with the tendency of national leaders to define interests in personal ways. The trigger for the present structural malfunction is a foreign policy issue, the issue of Iran (which, alas, is a reworking of the recent issue of Iraq).
As the ConsortiumNews website puts it “a torrent of war propaganda against Iran is flooding the American political scene as U.S. neocons and Israeli hardliners see an opening for another war in the Middle East.” . . .
…The lies of the neoconservatives and hard-line Zionists are part of an “MO” or modus operandi that is not original to them…
. . . In the present case, the neoconservatives and hard-line Zionists first created false charges (Iran’s alleged desire for nuclear weapons and willingness to use them against the U.S. and Israel) and are now, with the cooperation of the mass media, repeating them over and over again as if they were true. . .
…Out on the campaign trail, most of the Republican presidential candidates parrot the same line:
1. Mitt Romney supports “crippling sanctions” against Iran…
2. Newt Gingrich has publicly committed himself to attacking Iran…
3. Rick Santorum told the American public that if he were elected president “I would be saying to the Iranians, you either open those facilities, begin to dismantle them and make them available to inspectors or we will degrade those facilities through air strikes.” Poor Rick, he seems unaware that international inspectors regularly visit the Iranian facilities. Poor the rest of us, if Rick becomes president! …
