The White House used an article written by a known plagiarist to attack the credibility of the leader of Americas closest ally in the Middle East.
Even though the president insisted the U.S. and Israel were strong, the White House National Security tweeted Interesting take from @FareedZakaria on why PM Netanyahus predictions on #Iran have been wrong for 25 years, and included a link to the article.
In a stunningly political and petty move, the White House essentially accused Prime Minister Netanyahu of fear mongering for more than two decades.
The White Houses use of Zakaria raises red flags. CNN and Time magazine suspended the embattled pundit and editor for plagiarism on a gun control article he wrote in 2012. He was accused, again, of plagiarism in August 2014. Afterwards, Our Bad Media delivered a crushing report detailing 26 examples of Zakaria continuously plagiarizing in dozens of episodes of his CNN show by ripping off other sources.
Beyond credibility as a journalist, it was foolish for the White House to use Zakarie because he has been a puppet of the Obama administration since Obama came into the national fold in 2007.
Zakaria has long been an outspoken Obama backer. In 2008, in an interview with Playboy magazine, Zakaria even went so far as to say Obama is never wrong about anything.
I think hes right about every issue hes been criticized on, Zakaria said.
Even the left-leaning Salon bashed Zakaria for his neoliberal know-it-all-ism.
The article itself also took a number of cheap shots at Netanyahu.
When describing the alternative to it (Iran deal), Netanyahu entered never-never land, painting a scenario utterly divorced from reality, Zakaria wrote.
Zakaria mocked the Prime Minister by comparing his wishful thinking to Peter Pan in his article.
Biden probably picked him.
You can tell what kind of people they are by their behavior. They behave like no class street scum ergo......!
WHO'S WRONG NOW, BARRY?
If Biden had a son...
That retard is married to an English teacher too.
There’s something really disconcerting when both the White House and Iran are tweeting out attacks against Israel in the same week.
The lunatics are running the asylum!
If youd like to be on or off, please FR mail me.

Saw the headline, figured it was Biden.
“Theres something really disconcerting when both the White House and Iran are tweeting out attacks against Israel in the same week.”
It’s as if the White House is getting their talking points from TEHRAN!!
(Should I expect some kind of an indictment, now?)
Listening to Zakaria on foreign affairs is like listening to John Hinckley on Jody Foster.
The lunatics are running Iran. The traitors are running D.C.
No one watches skeletor. No one cares what Obama says. Everything is a lie, or he splits the hairs so thin on the truth they might just as well be lies.
What happened to the Presidencies that listened to criticism and did not jump at every opportunity to respond.
Just STFU, Obama. You simply sound petulant.
I have always disliked Fareed Zakaria after seeing his IBD editorial portrait. To say nothing of his writing.
