[Zhang Fei]

[What am I missing, Zhang - the piece looked to me to be very well written, and pretty much pro-Israel?]

Maybe you’re reading his essay in the original Klingon. He’s saying Israel is up to its usual nefarious tricks by whaling on Iran the naive and innocent victim with no nuclear ambitions and trying to get Uncle Sam to foot the bill for the complete destruction of Iran’s non-existent nuclear program. It’s of a piece with everything he’s written about Israel going back 30 years. I understand him siding with the Germans re the world wars out of ethnic grievance against the Brits at their dominance over Eire for almost a thousand years, but his hatred of Israel is something else entirely.

Thanks, and I certainly know his history with Israel, and even with Jews in general. I guess my problem is that I so quickly blow off the ‘experts’ when discussing the Iran Deal that I thought he was simply joking about them saying that all is fine with Iran...and no nuke threat. Obviously he was serious - he really (claims to) believe it.
