Bush administration and in particular Condi Rice are trying to deny what has been known for some time regarding big influence of AIPAC and Israel on US foreign policies made.
Rice can try, but the facts are overwhelming.

When Olmert opened his mouth and spilled the beans in the open ,the issue became a problem for Bush and Rice who preferred to have it kept in the dark and out of the public’s knowledge instead ,as it is usually done to conceal the power of the AIPAC lobby, and to avoid such embarrassment.

A wife can’t testify against her husband the fact that it’s a fantasy doesn’t enter into it. Rice is in love and there is no explaining star struck lovers

You can YouTube interviews with Chalmers Johnson! There he talks about his books ‘Blowback’, ‘The sorrows of an Empire’ and ‘Nemesis’!
If you love America and want to understand what has been going on and what is to come, these books are a MUST!

Before abstaining, Secretary Rice explained why she preferred circumcised men over uncircumcised men.

I wonder if Bush likes being publicly humilated by another head of state. It’s kind of pathetic if this story is true, that a prime minister of another country can have so much power over a soverign (sp) nation like the US.

Is Bush Olmert’s poodle? Would he like being called that?

Nah. The Israeli’s have our military tech and training on their side. For the Arab countries to be a threat, they’d have to combine their military forces and hope to Allah they could wage war with Israel with no Western military intervention.

The odds of worldwide Jewish outrage over an outbreak of war with the Arabs being silenced: 0.0000001%.

I heard an interesting idea today. That the Kings and Rulers of the Arab countries were allowing the slaughter of Palestinians in Gaza because Hamas was the first elected government in the Arab world, and that the Kings and Rulers were a little nervous that (real) democracy might take hold in the Arab world. And we already know what Israel and the US think of democracy.
Something to think about.

“Olmert has also claimed that Bush broke off a speech he was giving in Philadelphia to take his call.”

This shouldn’t be hard at all to prove or disprove. I trust there’s a blogger out there somewhere working on this since I’m sure it’s too much to ask from a real reporter.

You mean _this_ Khalilzad?

http://www.politicalaffairs.net/article/articleview/4029/

“Unocal also employed two well-connected Afghans to influence the Taliban in its favor, naturalized U.S. citizen Zalmay Khalilzad, and Hamid Karzai, both linked to former Afghan king Zahir Shah, then living in Pakistan. The pair later became U.S. Ambassador to Iraq and U.S.-backed President of Afghanistan, respectively.
President Bush first appointed Khalilzad to his National Security Council(NSC) staff, under Condoleezza Rice, and on December 31, 2001, named him “special envoy” to Afghanistan, only nine days after the Karzai government took office in Kabul.

“It should be recalled,” Johnson writes, Khalilzad joined NSC on May 23, 2001, “just in time to work on an operational order for an attack on Afghanistan.”

And _this_ Condoleeza?

Will Obama be the next puppet that Israel holds the strings to? God, I hope not!!

If the US truly wants Israel to take up peace negotiations then we need to pull the vast amounts of funding they receive from us every damn year. It’s not as if WE couldn’t use the money ourselves.

This is the problem with having a White House FULL of liars.

You never know who might be telling the truth as a result of a mistake.

Olmert is a rapist.

Israel supports the murder of innocent children.

About Rice… When I think of the millions of dead civilians in Iraq and Afegahnistan, I whish I could bang close the piano while this War Criminal still plays!

Two War Criminals pointing the finger at each other…
Everybody knows how the USA and Israel have been blocking any atempt to a peaceful resolution in the region. When they don’t outright vote against it, that is vetoing it, they abstain from voting.
Rice bent over for Olmert on that one and everybody knows it. Who can trust a LIER???! Remeber her saying in Congress that “Let me state quite clear that the USA does not TORTURE and does not condone TORTURE”.
HAGUE FOR BOTH! OLMERT AND RICE!

“I don’t know what’s more nauseating, folks: This right wing lunatic Palmor branding as a Hamas propagandist and leftist everyone who cites facts after having worked in this war zone or the United States Senate holding a vote while our nation is falling down around our ears in order to reaffirm Israel’s right to defend itself. Which is sort of like a judge reaffirming a wife batterer’s right to defend himself after his wife scratched his face just before he sent her to the Critical Care Unit.”

Mr. Evil Says: Israel. What a joke

Mr. Evil,

As far as I’m concerned, there’s nothing funny about Jewish terrorists who’ve been murdering Muslims and Christians in Palestine/The Holy Lands for the past 60 years.

If America wants to win the “war on terror”, she has to deal with the root of terrorism – Israel.
