Bibi Triples Down on Romney
Source: talkingpointsmemo.com
The cauldron of Israeli politics has been swirling of late with the notion that Defense Minister Ehud Barak has put his chips (both for the future and with respect to Iran) on Barack Obama and Benjamin Netanyahu has put his on Mitt Romney. And as the Prime Minister increasingly works to unseat President Obama, opposition leaders have started to ask who Bibi is more intent on ousting, Ahmadinejad or Obama?

2. For starters, Obama could stop issuing vetos at the U.N. covering up Israeli

war crimes and crimes against humanity.

5. Good news for Obama. Netanyahu always comes across as an arrogant little shit on TV. Now all Obama
|
has to do is invite Ehud Barak over for a meeting and photo op.

9. Bibi does realize that Romney lost all Foreign Policy credibility, right?
|
Well, maybe not. I guess its true regarding a fool and his money.

He's "tripling down on Romney"? particularly after the not-negative things he said about the discussion he just had with Obama?

17. Actually, there are two extremely small countries that seem to determine almost ALL of America's
|
foreign policy: A) Israel, and B) what's left of Batistan Cuba. The fact that Israel drives America's middle eastern policy is bad enough, but allowing 5000 cranky, aging Cuban exiles in Florida to drive America's Latin American policy for the last 60 years is REALLY ridiculous. Talk about the tail wagging the dog.
In any case, there have only been three presidents to stand up to the Israeli lobby: George HW Bush, Clinton, and Obama, and I admire all three for putting America first. It's fine when America and Israel have the same interests, but it's a mistake to support Israeli interests OVER American ones, or to support Israel UNCONDITIONALLY. Which all of the other presidents have done. |

18. While All Of This Is Going On

A new poll was just released showing Obama has substantially increased his lead with Jewish voters. No wonder a new Maris poll showed Obama surging to a 5 point lead in Florida.

If this was China or Russia, people would be losing their minds, but for whatever reason, the corporate media gives Netanyahu a free pass.
