Vice President Biden And Democrats Might Skip Netanyahu Speech To Congress

[deaddogseye]

the latest poll shows that a plurality of americans -- about 44-35% favor him speaking to Congress. That's all that really matters in this. For all the inside the beltway noise the public is fine with it

Most Americans think Jesus is coming back, and then will damn all the Jews to Hell since they have now served their purpose. Americans are as dumb as dog shit.

That's as may be but the dumb as shit American has the same vote as the genius and as long as that support holds up - even if the 44% are all the dumb dog shit kind, then it remains likely the speech will occur.. It doesn't matter if they are right or wrong (although there really is no right or wrong on this issue)

Nutanyahoo is a belligerent bully! Some even call him a terrorist.

Nutanyahoo is a belligerent bully! Some even call him a terrorist.

Some call him a racist:
"The point for Netanyahu of declaring Israel a 'Jewish state' is therefore to prevent it from being described as a “bi-national” state, i.e. as being made up of both Jews and Palestinians (not to mention some 300,000 non-Jewish Russians and Ukrainians who are not allowed to convert to Judaism by the Grand Rabbi). Palestinian-Israelis are nearly 22% of the Israeli citizen population, and they will be 33% in 15-20 years if they aren’t gotten rid of. If one takes all the people ruled by the Israeli state (I.e. including the Occupied Territories), the population is 12.6 million, of whom about half are Palestinians; 4.4 million of them are under military rule, kept stateless, and without basic human rights."

Let them skip it. It would just show how hateful and petty they are.

 

[Lakhota]

As of Tuesday morning, 60 congressional Democrats have said they are skipping the controversial speech. Among those boycotting are Sens. Tim Kaine (D-Va.), Patrick Leahy (D-Vt.) and Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). Vice President Joe Biden is also missing the speech due to overseas travel.

‘Our relationship to Israel causes dead Americans and enormous expense in fighting Muslims’

A lot of people are passing around this amazing testimony before Congress two weeks back by former CIA analyst Michael Scheuer, in which he says that the reason that Muslims want to become jihadis is not who we are but our foreign policy.

Americans need to have a debate at last about whether supporting Israel is essential to US security, or having troops in Muslim countries is essential, or supporting Saudi Arabia is essential, Scheuer argues. If the people want to believe that, “fine.” But they should know that “costs come with that.”

I agree!

Why should an Israeli Jew like Nutanyahoo be allowed to influence how America conducts its foreign policy in the Middle East?
