Our soaring, boundless intelligence-- this is what makes us the envy of the world.
Neither the Heartland, nor non-Heartland folk, like Rachel Maddow, consider these settlements illegal, so, for this newscycle, anyway, Cantor's bro is not likely to become another Billy Carter.
Maddow, always obsessive in her likes and dislikes, just doesn't care for "the Arab."
Its good to see the idea of a "scoop" still means something in journalism. After ten years, Phil's scoop is finally receiving some attention.
"I made aliyah to Israel in 1991, two weeks after receiving my BA in Political Science from Beir Zeit on the Hudson — otherwise known as Columbia University. I joined the Israel Defense Forces that summer and served as an officer for five and a half years."
Sounds like a perfect replacement for the current Israeli Ambassador to the US.
My guess is that if Turkish American journalist, Cenk Uygur, had volunteered for the Turkish Armed Forces in order to serve on the Turkish-Armenian border, people would think he held a pro-Turkish bias, and probably should not cover Turkish Armenian relations for the New York Times.
Here's the play to protect yourself if you think Israel is going to attack Iran:

I don't think Maddow is a coward or a sell-out. I just think she is an unconditional supporter of Israel.
I've never heard Rattigan criticize Israel. Do you have an example?
I'm a pre-Walt Mearsheimer , pre- Peace Not Apartheid reader of Mondoweiss. Anyone who is not encouraged by the progress made since then probably doesn't care about the cause.
Meese began the program to nurture right wing "stealth candidates," like John Roberts, for the Supreme Court.
Maddow doesn't talk about the Middle-East unless Richard Engel is present and Olbermann, doesn't talk about the Middle East.
Why do they need spies when the US has happily been shipping its state-of-the- art military arsenal to Israel for the last 50 years?
AMC is presenting a new series this summer, Rubicon, which exposes new aspects of the WASP conspiracy which has controlled American institutions since the founding of the United States. The protagonist of the show studies the machinatons of Iran,' a country, which we are told, 'is not exactly America's best friend these days, is haunted after nine years, by the deaths of his wife and child, who were, interesting enough, considering the hour, visiting the observation deck of one of the twin towers at the time it was attacked by the Moslems.
sorry, I'm not that familiar with her name, for some reason. the correct spelling is "Emily Henochowicz."
Until American institutions allow an open discussion of American Israeli policy, the name, Emily Henochowitz, will not be printed in the New York Times.
MSNBC, well Rachel Maddow once dared discussing the middle east with NBC correspondant, Richard Engel. And I saw Andrea Mitchell reporting from Israel on the Chris Matthews show. Dylan Rattigan couldn't find the Middle East on a map, and Keith Olbermann, after abandoning Fox, is still too traumatized by Murdoch retributions, to risk the wrath of AIPAC.
Since the Mitchell peace in Ireland, Irish tribalism has been pretty much dormant in the US, however, attacks of dual-nationalists like Brad Sherman against the Rachel Corrie, could ignite the passions of Americans of Irish descent. And unlike, Turkish Americans, Irish Americans are Christian and numerous.
Had Dogan been killed on the Achille Lauro, perhaps the US government would have shown more interest.
Imagine, if you will, that Ethan Bronner's son, who is a soldier in the Israeli Army, participated in the flotilla raid.
Would the NYT continue arguing that Bronner is not conflicted by his dual roles, as father of an Israeli soldier, and NYT Israeli correspondent?
I plan on taking a look at the Olbermann and Maddow shows tonight to see if the Flotilla ever crossed their radar screens.
This is exactly the type of cause which is better left to private initiative. Somebody needs to alert Shelly Adelson and his Birthright outfit to the opportunities here.
We should take the Bronner boy's enlistment in the Israeli army as an expression of solidarity with his mother and a public rejection of his father, a self hating Jew.
