Republican drumbeat begins: Obama will bring about ‘destruction’ of Israel

Philip Weiss-Mondoweiss

bachmanHere's a petition from the out-of-control Minnesota congresswoman (thanks to Max Blumenthal). And the other night Michelle Bachmann was on CNN saying that Obama is sticking the knife into Israel. She is plainly doing this to raise money.

    A bit of history:

    How The Lobby Chills Middle East Debate



    On Monday all hell broke loose. Because Levin was in Russia, staffers had to field both the press calls and the threats from outraged donors, constituents, and "pro-Israel" organizations. 
    Then some real weirdness happened. A top Israeli embassy official came to the office to deliver a protest from Prime Minister Shamir. When Levin's chief of staff, Gordon C. Kerr, told him that it was inappropriate for a foreign official to protest a letter senators had addressed to their own government (i.e., the Secretary of State), the Israeli official insulted Levin and made ugly threats. Kerr then threw him out of the office.

    "So significant was the fact that any U.S. senator had criticized any Israeli policy in any way (albeit mildly) ..."

    "And why was a New York Times columnist acting as if he was working for the Israeli government ... ?"

    Interesting.

    Off topic, but really, really disgusting:
