" The Manchurian Candidate" is a 1962 movie based on John Condon's novel. It is an excellent , intriguing story about a brainwashed ex-G.I. who is to make way for a Chinese- controled American president through an assasination.
How things have changed in America! Now all you need is money and a relentless propaganda campaign to get Americans to do things that are not in their best interest. And so, enter Israel's candidates for the U.S. presidency.
Recently presidential hopeful John Edwards made a low-profile pilgramage to Israel. He was kowtowing and seeking support from the powers that be in American politics. I.E. the Israeli/Jewish lobby. These Isreali foreigners back AIPAC, The Conference of Presidents of Major Jewish Organizations and other pro-Israel organizations and media propagandists. Edwards promised that his presidency's postion on Iran " would have all options on the table". He meant that a U.S. preemptive strike against Iran including a nuclear-tipped one would be an option.
Last year Hillary made the same pilgramage and pledge. She also supports Israel's seperation/apartheid wall, exclusive Israeli control of Jerusalem and " no right of return" for the ethnically- cleansed Palestinian refugees. Those particular postions insure that there will be no peace in the Israeli/Palestinian conflict. Her presidency would only extend the crimes of the Bush/Israel presidency.
Iran and the greater Middle East is not nor should it be a natural enemy of the U.S. But pro-Israel lobbies and media influence changed that. Simply Israel is not worth the focus of American foreign policy. The U.S. should not shelter Israeli criminal behavior.
