Friends + Interlocutors,

Murder as foreign policy...

You got that right. This was not an accident, but a deliberate act of murder. It should be clear by now that Israel is a terrorist state run by psychopaths. The question is, what are “we” going to do about it? By “we” I mean primarily the U.S. Government. The answer is…wait for it…absolutely nothing. 

Washington, under the double-talking Mr. Trump, is 100% enthusiastically in support of whatever Israel does. NetanYahoo has been given a free hand, a green light. Trump is joined by the brain-dead Republicans in Congress. As for the mealy-mouthed Democrats, especially their leaders in Congress, they too are part of the racket. You won’t hear a peep out of them.
 
Everyone has been bought and co-opted. True, some, like Speaker of the House Mike Johnson, are so deranged as to actually believe Israel is doing the right thing. But by and large, the answer to this puzzle is simple: follow the money. Washington politicians need money and a good press to survive. Israel through its many agents in America owns Washington.
