After Jon Stewart Goes to Bat for Gaza, Hillary Clinton Puts Him in His Place [Israel and Hamas]
Algemeiner ^ | Friday, July 18, 2014 | Shiryn Ghermezian

A day after Jewish comedian Jon Stewart caused outrage with a segment on his Daily Show on the ongoing Israel-Hamas war, he hosted former Secretary of State, and wannabe president, Hillary Clinton on his show to address the topic. After Stewart attempted to draw her into criticizing Israel, Clinton swiftly put him in his place.

Stewart: Can we at least agree that the humanitarian crisis in Gaza is overwhelming and that the world must do more for the people who are trapped by this conflict?

Clinton: And they’re trapped by their leadership. unfortunately, it’s a two-pronged trapping that is committed to resistance and violence and therefore their actions are mostly about how do we get new and better missiles to launch them at Israel instead of saying, ‘hey, lets try to figure out how we’re going to help make your lives better.’ And when I negotiated the cease-fire in November of 2012, it was right on the brink of Israel once again invading Gaza because of the rockets and so I flew from Cambodia, where I was with the president, to try to see what I can do. And, you know, the Israelis are absolutely right in saying that they can’t just sit there and let rockets rain down. They have a missile defense system, which is working well, but, you know, that can’t be certain, and now there are drones apparently that are being launched from Gaza.

Just because he had Jewish grandparents doesn’t mean he’s Jewish.

I think that Hillary, as usual, is just pandering.

No one should believe a word this fork tongued woman speaks. In the ‘90’s, she was the BFF of Yassar Arafat and his wife; now she’s the friend of Israel? I don’t think so.

Perhaps, but there wasn’t a shred of a lie in what she said to Stewart.

There has been SILENCE from Jordan, Egypt, SA, UAE, etc. Silence. They are hoping we finally let the Israelis finish the job completely this time.

Oh, and those rockets they found in a UN school? You don’t just misplace rockets at a school. The UN is an Iranian proxy here.

Smells like he COOPERATED in his own “drubbing” at the Strong Hand of Hillaghazi”.

I…..don’t trust this.

She NEVER does ANYTHING honest and she handled this TOO smoothly.

SET UP.

It appears that Hillary has brought out her old testicle lock box.

She said it, and it does SOUND GOOD, but PLEASE..!

Stewart got his COMEUPPANCE..?

Nah..!

His audience loves him NO MATTER WHAT…!

He’s a sharp guy, KNOWS Hillary is the next candidate and he was HELPING her.

NO act of Hillaghazi is 100% honest, without a shadow of an orchestration.

She has a sharp memory and she trades in favors —THIS is one of them.

There was a very valuable horticultural business that was set up by the Israelis that had lived in Gaza , and the idea was that this would be literally turned over, money was provided, there would be a fund that would train Palestinians in Gaza to do this work. And basically, the leadership said, ‘We don’t want anything left from Israel.’ Destroyed it all.

I remember this. I'm glad she brought it up.

Yes, for sure. There was enough self serving credit she gave herselfness, when “ SHE negotiationed” her “cease fire”, between Israel and Hamas in 2012.

Hillary spent her tenure at State assigning seasoned, experienced MEN to the case, whom she then dispatched to do ALL the heavy lifting. Every time.

She swooped in frequently to international capital cities for the cake line and cocktails, but the only heavy lifting by her was lifting the hors d’oeuvres from their silver trays.
