Criminal Insanity

Friends + Interlocutors,
The present blowup in the Middle East should be put in context. A little article of mine from 2008, Criminal Insanity, may help to do this. Washington’s role in the drama has been central. Enable, empower, pander.
There is a perfect storm of circumstances propelling events at the moment.
(1) A Presidential election year in the U.S. means Israel has a free hand to do whatever it wants no matter how outrageous.
(2) The sitting POTUS, a self-proclaimed Zionist, is mentally impaired and a nullity.
(3) The Israeli government is composed of the most openly crazy fanatics so far.
(4) Their front-man, Bibi Netanyahoo, is the biggest con-man in recorded history and has a special connection to the U.S.
