What is the logic here?
Like liberals everywhere, Israeli liberals engage in wishful thinking. The argument is that, unlike Arabs, Persians are a civilized people who are not suicidal and any crazy mullahs are an aberration. It’s a serious argument.
“What is the logic here?”
Our standing in the world is not brilliant right now. The question of Israels legitimacy is up for debate. We should not erode our relations with our most important friend. Certainly not in public, certainly not by becoming involved in its domestic politics. This is not proper behaviour for a prime minister.
Where he is mistaken in his logic is to consider obama a friend.
Maybe Barry’s goons paid him off. They are over there meddling in this election.
