Abraham Foxman is probably monitoring this thread.If so, I would say that I am not defaming the Jewish Democratic Congressmen because they are Jewish, but rather because of their disloyalty to their party, their President, and their country (assuming that they consider their country to be the USA).
So, a special interest lobbying group is sponsoring 81 congressmen to go to Israel to be indoctrinated to vote against the Iran nuclear deal.
Do our other āalliesā have special interest lobbying groups that will give our congressmen vacations in their countries that are designed to specifically influence particular congressional actions?
Iām asking. I donāt know the answer. If so, it seems like an abominable way to let our government be run. If not, and it is only Israel that does such a thing, then what does that say about Israelās undue influence on what we our govt does?

Say something against a Jew, and you piss a Christian off. Are you sure some of the congressmen arenāt doing this to gain Christian votes back home?

Say something against a Jew, and you piss a Christian off. Are you sure some of the congressmen arenāt doing this to gain Christian votes back home? Of course many of the congressmen are eaten up with their weird version of Christian theology and that of their constituents. But those are mostly Republicans. And I already knew that they can be counted on to be more loyal to their theology than to the actual best interests of their country. It is more surprising to me that a significant number of Jewish Democratic congressmen would be more loyal to the Israeli hardliners than to the best interests of the US, and their party, and their President, and the world, for that matter. Hence I am specifically calling them out, because, perhaps they are redeemable. The Republican theocrats have made it consistently and abundantly clear that they are not redeemable.
Jewish Democrat Senator, Brian Shatz, shows his loyalty to his party, President and country by supporting the Iran deal. He states:
āā¦This agreement is not based on trust or shared values, and we have no reason to assume that the Iranians will comply with its terms in good faith. That is why the agreement includes an unprecedented inspections and verification regime that will be in place for up to 25 years. We will be monitoring Iranās entire nuclear supply chaināfrom uranium mining, milling, and enrichment to the manufacturing and replacement of centrifugesāso we will know if Iran is diverting uranium or centrifuges to secret facilities. If we believe that Iran is conducting illicit activities at suspicious sites, the International Atomic Energy Agency can request immediate access to those areas. If Iran denies access, it will be in breach of the agreement and UN sanctions will be reimposed. [ā¦]
This agreement should not be compared to an imaginary deal where Iran rolled over, and eliminated all its centrifuges and all peaceful nuclear energy generation. That was never seriously on the table. It should be compared to its real world alternativeāan unraveling of the international sanctions, Iran moving ever faster towards the bomb, and our country left with few choices other than another war in the Middle East."
(edited to include Brian Shatzās name after I realized I hadnāt included it) He impresses me as a clear thinking guy.
Thank God trump just stopped the taxpayer funding for two of the largest legacy media out fits.
Yes and no, I would say.
I am not sure US provided intelligence and weapons specifically for this operation, but i am sure they do on a routine basis.
Israel has received 940 aircraft and vessels loaded with US weapons and military equipment since the start of the Gaza war in October 2023, the Defense Ministry said on Tuesday, Anadolu reports.
āThe 800th aircraft in the comprehensive military equipment and weapons airlift operation that commenced immediately following the (Gaza) war has landed in Israel this morning,ā the ministry said in a statement.
During the airlift, the ministry said, over 90,000 tons of military equipment have been delivered to Israel via 800 flights and approximately 140 maritime shipments.
The procured and transported equipment includes munitions, armored vehicles, individual protective equipment, and medical supplies, according to the ministry.
Israeli military HQ located right under hospital in Tel Aviv.
Have our news reported this use of civilian locations as a shield for military facilities?
America refuses to back G7 de-escalation statement. It wants war. Reports coming in the US will bomb iran soon. The crazies in israel are talking up a nuclear strike on Tehran
If the reports are correct that Iran now has enough nuclear material to create 9 bombs. Then all Iran has to do is create a couple dozen dirty bombs with that material. Shoot the rockets over Israel and let the Iron Dome rockets blow them up. The fallout will create a nuclear contaminated area where people will not be able to live until the radiation is removed. That could cover a large area take a decade to clean up. America and Israel needs to move fast. If that happens, Israelis may have to move to Gaza.
Thats adorable. From the same people that gave us the WMD lies. Israel and america will risk blowing up the world rather than sharing the land and sharing the world. They are ruled by psychopathic lunatics .
