The Live Thread For 11/15/12 (First Version): The Gaza Outbreak

Image
Photo from Al Jazeera   As Zionists like Netanyahu continue their disproportionate attacks on Gaza, stay in touched here and many other places on another assault on Gaza. And the tweet that was deleted from the world class coward that is Netanyahu. Thanks goodness Andrew Kaczynski caught it. He tried to use Obama for justification of his attacks, for his own selfish political motives in order to save himself from losing the election next year to Ehud Barak in 2013. He is a liar, a deceiver, and a clown. (More coverage to come....)

The Read International For 7/13/10: It Really Makes The Argument Hard, Doesn't It?

King Abdullah of Jordan is none to please about the United States threats to cut off financial to his country (Photo from AFP) When we act like this, it makes it really hard for anyone who knows the entire story for us to continue screaming at the nutcase Ahmadinejad and more sanctions on his Supreme Leader's final say government . The United States has threatened to cut financial aid to Jordan, if the Hashemite Kingdom continues to develop its nuclear program without coordinating with Israel, the Arab media reported on Monday. The American threat comes after Amman rejected Israeli demands to participate in extraction and enrichment of uranium, and Jordan's failure to obtain US approval for its nuclear plan, despite talks between the two parties, which lasted six months. According to reports, the ultimatum was probably given to Amman days after US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton met with Jordanian Foreign Minister Nasser Judah. This action by our State Department giv...

The Read International For 6/1/10: Taking The Punishment For Them Again

Sigh : Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has been privately asking foreign leaders to "dial down" criticism of Israel until all the facts of the flotilla attack are known, according to a source who personally discussed the matter with her. "She says she's been working the phones for last 24 hours trying to get people to cool off a little bit, to see what the facts are," the source tells me, adding that she said she was trying to "dial down some of the rhetoric of the inernational community." "It's difficult," the source adds. "She says people are furious." Covering up for them again I see. It not surprisingly though, especially when you see Anthony Weiner do his same usual "love for Israel forever" dance , no matter what stuff the IDF and the Netanyahu Administration does. We'll only hold accountable anyone who is not named Israel, that is the top policy model for the State Department to follow. I sure...

1st Thread For 3/9/10: The Same Routine Stuff

Image
Photo from AFP Biden met with Netanyahu today, saying the same thing as usual in regards to US-Israel relations "Progress occurs in the Middle East when everyone knows that there is simply no space between the United States and Israel," he said. "The is no space between the United States and Israel when it comes to Israel's security. And for that reason, and many others, addressing Iran's nuclear programme has been one of our administration's priorities." Netanyahu thanked the US administration for attempting to limit Iran's nuclear programme, which they claim is aimed at developing nuclear weapons, contrary to Iran's pronouncments that it is solely for civilian purposes, via sanctions. The focus on Iran surely outweigh any attention on the Palestians, despite Biden mentioning the two state solution hopes again. Dr Hanan Ashrawi, a Palestinian politician and activist, also said she believed the meetings with Israeli officials was more ab...

Netanyahu and Barak Deliver Another Smack To Obama's Face

Oy Defense Minister Ehud Barak has authorized the building of 300 new homes in the West Bank, defying U.S. calls for a halt to settlement growth. According to Army Radio said 60 of the 300 homes slated for the Talmon settlement in the West Bank have already been built and that Barak had approved plans to construct another 240 units there. And this one from the nutty Bibi Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Tuesday that international "arguing" over Israel's stance on settlements was impeding progress on the Middle East peace progress. In an interview with Italy's RAI TV, Netanyahu insisted that settlement activity in East Jerusalem and the West Bank must be viewed as separate issues, as Jerusalem is an inseparable part of Israel. Because of what's going on in Iran, Netanyahu and Barak pull of this move. They are utter cowards for this move.
