Obama adviser worries Israel supporters

Zbigniew Brzezinski’s intervention into “Israel Lobby” debate
Brzezinski, 79, stepped into the crossfire this summer when he published an essay in the summer issue of the journal Foreign Policy, defending a controversial new book about the power of the Israel Lobby in American politics.
The books authors, Harvards Stephen Walt and the University of Chicagos John Mearsheimer, thanked him for his incisive defense.
But the article inserted him into one of the most heated debates in America-Israel politics, a bitter dispute about whether the authors claims smacked of bigotry, whether their critics are as Brzezinski put it McCarthyite.
It is a tremendous mistake for Barack Obama to select as a foreign policy adviser the one person in public life who has chosen to support a bigoted book, said Harvard Law professor Alan Dershowitz, one of the most visible critics of the Walt and Mearsheimer volume, titled The Israel Lobby. (Dershowitz has contributed to the campaign of Obamas leading rival, Senator Hillary Clinton of New York.)
Obama has already distanced himself from the book, with his campaign saying in a statement earlier this week that the idea that supporters of Israel have somehow distorted U.S. foreign policy, or that they are responsible for the debacle in Iraq, is just wrong. And Obamas positions on Middle East affairs are, like his main rivals, within the American political mainstream and firmly in favor of Israelis aggressive security policy.”

I think flying Israel flags is a great idea. :)
No, you see, he’s just arranging the meeting between the 2 of them.
Jimmuh, Zbig and Vance - the three stooges.
“Im quite sure such a massive organized event such as that would surely send a message to the Muslim-in-Thief.”
. . . if he was normal. With each passing day, and with each revelation of the unthinkable, and his arrogance and malignant narcissism, it’s obvious what we’re dealing with.
obama aligns with evil.
Is this the same clown that advised Carter on how to handle the Iranian Embassy hostage situation? The guy always
talked with a sock in his mouth so we never knew what the
heck he was talking about.
That's a tricky call. Inaction is always easier than action. It would be VERY easy for a good man (and most of our pilots are good people) and especially against Israeli pilots, to simply let someone get by you instead of shooting them down. I hope that Israel is planning something that can't be stopped by Obama, but I am not convinced that our pilots would do their best when following an evil order.
Zbigniew Brzezinski is still considered a foreign policy genius by the left. Imagine the type of intellect that concludes the threat of a nuclear Iran requires the US to shoot down Israeli jets on a mission to eliminate that threat because such a mission would be counterproductive.
I’ve been predicting it for almost a year.
Our pilots will have to choose between 0bama and God.
I have a feeling that many Jews who voted for Obama are having a lot of second thoughts.
"Brzezinski openly praises Marxism in his book Between Two Ages published in 1970. Incidentally Brzezenskis father was an ambassador to Russia from Poland during Stalins reign"
Doesn't one have to have a brain first ?
“This is so outrageous that I dont even know what to say in response.
Who the Hell do these bastards think they are...”
In the ongoing saga of “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree” we now have more understanding of Mika’s presence on MSNBC and a retro look at Jimmy Carter’s decision making while president.
Zbigie is still smarting from losing a chess match to Menachem Begin.
