Clinton in Jerusalem as
Gaza truce still elusive

Reuters, by Nidal al-Mughrabi & Jeffrey Heller

Original Article

Gaza/Jerusalem - U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton was in Jerusalem for talks on Tuesday with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu as expectations rose of a ceasefire soon to end a week of fighting around the Gaza Strip. However, Gaza´s rulers, the Palestinian Islamist movement Hamas, revised a statement that a truce would start overnight, saying it was still waiting for an Israeli response to proposals and did not now expect an announcement until Wednesday. An official in the Egyptian government, whose new, Islamist leadership has been playing peace broker in Cairo,

Comments:
It´s currently midnight at the oasis for Hillary. She´s somewhere in the capitol of Israel. [If the terrorist don´t start by agreeing with that simple fact, how can there be peace? Right. The Muslim Brotherhood [Egypt], is brokering it for Hamas, their Palestinian wing].

I think Hillary is really there to see what is dug up with Yassir Arrafat´s remains & coffin. Either that, or give Egypt the $500M they wanted to extort from US.

Message to Obama: You can keep Hillary, just send the money.

Who better to send on a Fool´s Errand than a certifiable fool?

These re-runs about Israelis and Palestinians have been showing for over half a century now. We know the plot. The actors come and go, there are minor script changes, and the weaponry steadily advances in lethality and sophistication.

Those who count on the Arab side have made it plain as they can possibly make it that they do not believe Israel has a right to exist and that their plan is to destroy the state of Israel. Maybe there are lots more Arabs and Palestinians who don´t think that, but they don´t count. They are politically and militarily inert. So there will continue to be attacks, retaliations, threats of war, temporary cease fires, truces, and of course the everlasting talk of some metaphysical Holy Grail called The Peace Process.

When those who count, i.e. those who desire to eliminate Israel, acquire nuclear weapons they will use them n Israel. This will not be the smartest thing they have ever done, for Israel will retaliate massively. There will be mushroom clouds all over the place. Other Arab nations will enter the fray against Israel. Ground wars will ensue. The U.S. will become involved. There will be mass casualty attacks on the American homeland. Russia and China may or may not get (more) involved. A world war is not impossible.

In the end, of course, the U.S. will be the victor, though at fantastic cost in lives and materiel. It seems a shame to have to go through all that, especially when it could be prevented.

At least we will wind up with the oil fields, which we should have seized long before now. We are literally paying Islamic medieval throwbacks to wage war on us and modernity.

There´s a rumor on a reliable pro Israel blog (not Debka, a reliable blog) that Obama and Clinton have threatened Netanyahu if he invades. The US won´t resupply Israel, the US won´t support Israel at the UN. The Chicago thug treatment for our ally, money and roses for the Muslim Brotherhood. Netanyahu should throw Hillary out on her ample caboose.

No one should trust what the muslims say, they lie, kill and take over other countries if they can. I will never forget 9/11 and how slick let them get away with it. Responding in kind would have been and was done by GW.

The body language between these two was not showing amore. I too think Hillary was sent to threaten, not show support. Prayers for Israel.


Reply 6 - Posted by: gesundheit, 11/20/2012 6:03:37 PM     (No. 9026381)

Hamas has been sending missiles into Israel for years, yet two months ago when Benjamin Netanyahu asked for a meeting with Obama to discuss growing Middle Eastern tensions when both were in New York, Obama had so little interest in the subject he preferred to spend his time instead appearing on ´´The View.´´

So why is Hillary suddenly flying off to Israel to meet with Mr. Netanyahu now? At whose request?

The Obama administration´s attitude toward Israel and its prime minister has been one of open rejection, so it´s doubtful a call from Mr. Netanyahu caused Hillary to rush to Jerusalem, and why would the Israelis want her there since they´re winning their war against Hamas?

Can anyone doubt it was Mr. Morsi, president of Egypt and the Muslim Brotherhood, who urgently requested Hillary´s presence, which she urgently supplied, so she that she could broker a cease-fire that would prevent Israel from completing its anti-terrorism actions against Hamas?

If the Israelis were stupid enough to support a television program like ´´The View,´´ that´s where Mr. Netanyahu should be spending his time now, instead of spending a minute listening to Hillary.

She got there late and they have to walk it back a couple of steps so BHO and Hill get some credits.

House committee takes
up tough immigration bill

Washington - A key committee in the Republican-led House has taken up a tough enforcement-focused immigration bill, but the proceedings were immediately interrupted by protesters shouting "Shame, shame!" More than a dozen protesters began chanting as soon as Judiciary Committee Chairman Bob Goodlatte of Virginia gaveled the committee hearing open Tuesday. Goodlatte stopped the proceedings until the protesters were ushered into the hall, where their shouts could still be heard. Goodlatte said the bill under consideration, which empowers local law enforcement to enforce federal immigration

NASA´s new astronauts: Will these

It’s been two years since NASA’s space shuttle program came to an end, but thousands of Americans still dream of becoming astronauts. Eight of them – four men and four women – were introduced Monday as NASA’s astronaut candidate class for 2013. (Snip) The bios of the eight people selected will probably make you feel like a bit of a slacker. Two of them have PhDs and one is a physician training in sports medicine. Four have experience as test pilots for the Navy or Air Force. One person is working at the Pentagon on ways to defeat the homemade bombs that have plagued troops in Iraq and

G.O.P. Pushes New Abortion

Washington - After Republicans lost the presidential election and seats in both the House and the Senate last year, many in the party offered a stern admonishment: If we want to broaden our appeal, steer clear of divisive social and cultural issues. Yet after the high-profile murder trial of an abortion doctor in Philadelphia this spring, many Republicans in Washington and in state capitals across the country seem eager to reopen the emotional fight over a woman’s right to end a pregnancy. (Snip) The bill stands no chance of becoming law, with Democrats in control of the Senate and the White House.

Tehran - President-elect Hassan Rowhani of Iran, speaking Monday for the first time since his election victory, said he wanted to reduce tensions with the United States but ruled out direct talks between the two estranged nations. In his first news conference after winning Friday’s presidential election promising more freedoms and better relations with the outside world, Mr. Rowhani called the issue of nonexistent relations between Iran and the United States “an old wound, which must be healed.” Iran, he said, wants to reduce tensions between the two countries, which have no diplomatic relations and are

   

 



 
Supreme Court Lets Regulators
Sue Over Generic Drug Deals

Washington - Pharmaceutical companies that pay rivals to keep less-expensive generic versions of best-selling drugs off the market can expect greater federal scrutiny after a Supreme Court ruling on Monday. In a 5-to-3 vote, the justices effectively said that the Federal Trade Commission can sue pharmaceutical companies for potential antitrust violations, a decision that is likely to increase the number of generic drugs in the marketplace and benefit consumers. Specifically, the justices threw out lower-court rulings that said the agreements were legal, provided that a deal did not keep a generic

President Barack Obama and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, put their escalating differences over Syria on display even as they agreed to urge both sides in the civil war there to the negotiating table. (Snip) “We do have differing perspectives,” Obama said, while adding that “we share an interest in reducing the violence.” Some Western leaders publicly rebuked Putin for his support of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad as the Group of Eight summit of industrial nations began. Obama and Putin focused on areas of agreement in remarks after the talks, their first one-on-one meeting

Washington - Edward Snowden, the former National Security Agency contractor who exposed the U.S. government´s top-secret surveillance programs, fought back against his critics on Monday and denied allegations that he was a spy for China. Snowden told an online forum run by Britain´s Guardian newspaper that he revealed the programs in part out of disappointment with President Barack Obama, who he said had expanded "abusive" government programs while in office. (Snip) "I have had no contact with the Chinese government," said Snowden, who has vowed to stay in the Chinese-run former

Edward Snowden Is In The
Process Of Destroying Any Support
And Sympathy He Has Built Up

Business Insider, by Brett LoGiurato    Original Article

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

As NewsBusters reported last week, former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin called out vulgarian comedian Bill Maher for referring to her Down Syndrome son Trig as "retarded." On ABC´s The View Monday, co-host Barbara Walters astonishingly defended Maher saying, "I don´t think he intended it to be mean-spirited" (video follows with transcript and commentary): WHOOPI GOLDBERG: At a recent standup show in Las Vegas, comedian Bill Maher apparently called Sarah Palin’s five-year-old developmentally-challenged son Trig retarded. And Sarah blasted him on Twitter as a bully. Is that, is it, is he a bully? Is he a bad, what is he?

   

 

  


 
Who is he? Obama keeps allies,
enemies guessing in second term

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Jeb Bush says he’s not worried that his work toward comprehensive immigration reform and his ties to the GOP establishment will alienate conservatives and negatively impact a potential 2016 presidential campaign, referring to critics as “the chirpers.” “If I decide to run for office again, it will be based on what I believe, and it will be based on my record,” the former Florida governor said in an interview with the Christian Broadcasting Network’s David Brody. “And that record was one of solving problems completely from a conservative prospective.” Bush (R) pointed to his conservative

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan

Is Marco Rubio, R-Fla., getting played by Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.? During his interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl this morning, Rubio didn’t even seem to understand what that meant. “Are you being played by the Democrats?” asked Karl. “Is Chuck Schumer playing you?” “I don’t — I quite frankly, I don’t even know what that means,” Rubio replied. “Is he using you?” Karl continued. “Is he using you to try to accomplish something that the Democrats want and is not — not a conservative bill?” Rubio responded that immigration reform was a bi-partisan issue that “all Americans
