Democratic presidential candidate Beto O’Rourke says that Israel’s prime minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, is racist. The former Texas congressman made the remark during a campaign stop on Sunday in Iowa. O’Rourke was asked on Sunday if his past criticisms of Netanyahu risked driving away Israel supporters from the Democratic Party. ‘The US-Israel relationship is one of the most important relationships that we have on the planet, and that relationship, if it is successful, must transcend partisanship in the United States, and it must be able to transcend a prime minister who is racist, as he warns against Arabs coming to the polls, who wants to defy any prospect for peace as he threatens to annex the West Bank, and who has sided with a far-right racist party in order to maintain his hold on power,’ O’Rourke told The Hill.

And of course the Media thinks this SHOULD qualify him for president.

Netanyahu favors the welfare of his own genetic group (Jews) over those not of his genetic group. That fits the definition of racism.

To which I add “so what?”.

There is a new drink out there. It is called the Beto. You take a shot of cheap Irish whiskey and call it top shelf tequila.

What does Netanyahu have to do with running for President? I’m fully aware of the relationship that the US has with Israel and that Netanyahu isn’t some pushover, pansy, who’ll roll over for the Palestinians. If anything, the man shows an enormous amount of restraint in the face of a battle he really can’t win. Whether he eliminates the Palestinian threat and then suffers the consequences of the international community. Or he allows Israeli’s to die because of the international community. He’s screwed either way.

While I can’t speak for the rest of the 120+ million voters in the US, what Netanyahu is or isn’t, isn’t something I take into the voting booth with me. O’Rourke is a moron. Not quite as bad as AOC, Omar, Tlaib or Pressley, but a moron, nonetheless.

I wonder what he has to say about Iran? That would likely take that amount of courage as Iran and it’s regime is one to not be criticized in any way shape or fashion in the world of the talking classes, as opposed to Israel and Netanyahu.

“..., and who has sided with a far-right racist party in order to maintain his hold on power,’ O’Rourke told The Hill.

He must be referring to those Jewish NAZIs.

Sounds like Beto is trying to influence a foreign election.

Years ago, some journalist accused Anwar Sadat of being an anti-Semite. Sadat's response was basically: "You idiot -- I am a Semite!"

That video of Beto “Clyde Crashcup’’ O’Rorke slamming off the skateboard into the car might have done serious damage to one already seriously deluded loon.

When will the Jews in America realize that the Democrats are not their friends?

What does Netanyahu have to do with running for President?

This whole incident was Beto "democrat code-speak" for "I'm one of you guys and I hate them all, too."

Once the left has total power, they will deal with their own "Jewish Question". It's what they do.
