It appears that Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu is trying
to get the United States
into another war. He is now playing the Israeli
Dick Cheney and clearly meddling in American politics. You know, we have to attack Iran right away
because the bad guys might possibly, someday get an atomic weapon. But, of course, Netanyahu is putting the
squeeze on the United States
to take responsibility for any hostile act against Iran . He is griping about the “red line” America must draw and if Iran crosses it
we will be obligated to join in the attack. Fortunately, Obama and Hillary are not buying
that crap no matter how much huffing and puffing Mitt Romney is doing to imply
he would be Mr. Tough Guy and agree to comply with Netanyahu’s demands in a not-so-subtle grovel to the Jewish lobby. That, as we all know, is presidential campaign
bombast. Some people think Netanyahu is
intentionally trying to get Romney elected.
One can dream so here’s
mine: Obama is re-elected, he tells Netanyahu
where to shove his “red line,” Israel
attacks Iran
and Obama informs Netanyahu, “You’re on your own, Benjy, and, by the way, we’re
not giving you three and a half billion dollars a year any more. Have a good
day.”
