So Susan Rice, presently the target of a right wing media lynching over her Benghazigate comments, spoke out against the Palestinians' attempt to upgrade their status at the UN. Can you condemn her for being a puppet? I'm just asking.

Can you condemn her for being a puppet? I'm just asking. Not sure if she is a puppet but I'm certain she's not ready for prime time. As far as lynching goes, if a person puts a rope around their neck a kicks away the chair, who's fault is that?

So the GOP is going after Hagel for not being sufficiently servile to Israel. And here I thought he was being nominated as Secretary of State for America.

So Obama is going to Israel in March to kiss Bibi's patootie no doubt. That should be nauseating to watch.

www.latimes.com/news/nationworld/world/middleeast/la-fg-syria-russia-20130302,0,7065256.story "BEIRUT — A flap about Turkish Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan's description of Zionism as a "crime against humanity" overshadowed U.S. Secretary of State John F. Kerry's visit Friday to Turkey, a key NATO ally. Although the topic of Syria was expected to dominate discussions — both the United States and Turkey are major supporters of the Syrian opposition — Erdogan's remark this week has drawn a firestorm of criticism, including condemnation from the White House, the United Nations and Israel. Kerry, on his inaugural trip as the nation's top diplomat, was forced to respond as Erdogan's comments ignited new friction between two of Washington's pivotal regional partners, Turkey and Israel. Kerry said at a news conference in Ankara with Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu that he communicated U.S. displeasure with Erdogan's remarks. "We not only disagree with it, we found it objectionable," Kerry said." So it's going to be business as usual in the Mideast as America pretends to be a neutral player in the Zionist-Palestinian conflict. As I said before, it doesn't really matter WHO is Secretary of State, or Secretary of Defense for that matter. Frankly, when it comes to foreign policy, it doesn't really matter who's President.

www.nytimes.com/2013/03/05/us/politics/biden-tells-pro-israel-group-that-president-is-not-bluffing-on-iran.html?hp&_r=0"WASHINGTON — Three weeks before President Obama makes his first trip to Israel, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. sought on Monday to smooth over any friction between the two allies, telling an influential pro-Israel lobbying group that “no president has done as much to physically secure the state of Israel as President Barack Obama.” Mr. Biden, speaking to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, also underscored Mr. Obama’s threat to use military force — if all else failed — to stop Iran from acquiring a nuclear weapon." 'cause only Israel can have nukes in that region. We all know Arabs (and Persians) are too backwards. Damn camel jockeys...

Is Obama done with his mandatory Presidential ass-kissing of Israel yet?

Oh now Big O is in Jordan, one of the Mideast non-democracies still supported by the US. Not that Americans give a crap one way or another.

www.washingtontimes.com/news/2013/jul/11/perry-trip-israel-sign-another-white-house-bid/"Texas Gov. Rick Perry said Thursday that he will visit Israel in October, a move that signals to the political world that he is seriously considering making another presidential run in 2016. “We will be going to Israel to bring together Arabs, Christian and Jews in an educational forum,” Mr. Perry told The Washington Times in an interview just three days after he announced he would not seek an unprecedented fourth term as Texas governor. Many analysts interpreted that decision as evidence that he is setting the table for a White House campaign. Asked what would induce him to announce a run, he told The Times that he has “plenty of time to make that decision.” Yes, Governor Rick is making the required trip to Israel to kiss the ass of the pro-Israel lobby. Israel has Masada, and Texas has the Alamo, so I guess they have a lot in common.

So the McCain wing of the GOP is trying to sell Obama's War on Syria by claiming it is "what Israel wants". Gosh, say no more!

www.theguardian.com/world/2014/apr/29/john-kerry-apologises-israel-apartheid-remarks"The US secretary of state, John Kerry, has apologised for warning that Israel risked becoming an "apartheid state" if it did not reach a peace deal with the Palestinians, following a barrage of criticism in America. In a statement, Kerry hit back at what he described as "partisan political" attacks against him, while stating that in retrospect he would have chosen a different word." "While Israeli political leaders have not commented publicly about Kerry's remarks, the secretary of state has faced fierce criticism in the US. The Republican leader of the House of Representatives, Eric Cantor, said Kerry should apologise, while the American Israel Public Affairs Committee described his use of the term as offensive. Another pro-Israel lobby called for Kerry to resign, a call echoed by Republican senator Ted Cruz of Texas in a speech on the Senate floor. Democratic senator Barbara Boxer was also critical of Kerry,, saying in a tweet: "Israel is the only democracy in the Middle East and any linkage between Israel and apartheid is nonsensical and ridiculous."
Uh-oh! Kerry has been caught NOT pandering to Israel! Even little Barbie Boxer is dumping on him for his non-PC comment!

JD in all due respect when I see the name Kerry, I stop there and think of a treasonous basperson. Certainly he is a guy you don't want to turn your back on. You'd likely get shot in the back. That and his Genghis Khan speech is his legacy and makes him a traitor. Why can't we get on with the good old days. Hang'em high and firing squads. Don't you love justice and humanity.

I gotta admit after Hillary had her lackluster term as SOS, I was not thrilled at Kerry stepping in. But I had already decided that Obama was a foreign policy boob and it really didn't matter which toady he had as SOS, nothing good was going to come of it, and nothing has.
