Scott Horton interviews the great Stephen Walt about Bibi Netanyahu getting caught on tape. I can't imagine our needing this, but must remind myself that some of us were actually born yesterday. I have been appalled that Israel has let him back up to the top of the heap because there was so much buzz about him having a great deal to do with the assassination of Yitzhak Rabin, so much buzz about what a militant, bloody-minded maniac he is, a disgrace to the public face of Israel. All that just sort of evaporated and this filthy murderating fuck is where he is now. I think, unless the Israeli people are hostages to a government completely other than their wishes, with all those polls about their solid support for its actions being as false as most of the polls made public here, that this is a clear indication Israel should be moved to the South Pole. I don't see how there could need to be any further discussion about this, but here indeed is some very cogent discussion of it... which ends up being a cogent discussion of the Iran thing.

    Since our government is hostage of Israel, I would not find it hard to believe her people are also...

  2. Maybe I should change my call to move the space lizards to the South Pole.
