ed note–yeah, I know it’s getting old for us too, but unfortunately there are some who still aren’t ‘getting it’ and therefore, due to the incessant chirping on the part of those who still can’t seem to understand the political math going on here, we are forced to hammer all of this home on a regular, repeated, and unnecessarily-repetitious basis.
When was the last time that a candidate or president-elect was subjected to THIS kind of j-inquisition, and when was the last time such a candidate went ahead with his plans anyway, amidst all the screeching and hollering that was taking place?
Curiously as well, note just what Morton Klein, head of one of the biggest Jewish organizations in the world, had to say about Russia–
‘Trump’s closeness with Russia concerns me as well because Russia has been enormously hostile to Israel’
WHAAAAAAAT??????? BUT WE HAVE BEEN TOLD BY SOME GENIUSES IN THIS MOVEMENT THAT ‘PUTIN IS A JEW’ AND IS SECRETLY WORKING BEHIND THE SCENES WITH ISRAEL…WE HAVE PICS OF HIM SHAKING HANDS WITH NETANYAHU, FOR YAHWEH’ SAKE!!!!!!’
Sorry to have to resort to such drama folks, but you really have no idea how unnerving it is dealing with the endemic idiocy of some players in all of this and the damage they do to our ability to think clearly and act rationally as a result of their nonsense.
Also, note what the cited Haaretz piece has to say about Trump’s early noises for Sec of State, i.e. Bolton, Giuliani, Romney et al, and how they have ‘extensive ties to Israel and to right wing American Jews and a rich history of contacts with Israeli politicians, most notably Benjamin Netanyahu’.
In other words, it was ALL FOR SHOW, floating their names in the manner in which he did. You don’t pick someone like Tillerson–close with Russia and with no government/public service experience out of thin air. Trump and his people had Tillerson in mind a year ago long before they floated the names of the previously-mentioned rodents.
Note as well–‘Tillerson could also prove to be a moderating force on the nuclear deal with Iran, compared to Flynn and Mattis, who are thought to be hostile.’
In other words, all the ‘NUH-HUH, NUH-HUH, TOLD YA TRUMP WAS JUST GOING TO BE ANOTHER RUBBER STAMP FOR NETANYAHU’ based upon his appointing Mathis and Flynn meant nothing. The 2 aforementioned are going to be dealing with military matters, namely wiping up the mess that the Neocons have created vis a vis ISIS while Tillerson is going to be dealing with foreign relations, most notably those with Russia and Iran.
