Response to a reader’s comment,
'“an adversary of the United States [journalist/interviewer reference to Assad].
'”Whatever the fuck that means”':
It means that Israel likes the American troops to be in Syria, whether it makes sense to anyone else or not.
This summarizes the status of a government of 330,000,000 people vis-a-vis another government of 8 million.
And you simply cannot explain that on television. Or anywhere else in the United States.
Or you get into even deeper shit than Tulsi Gabbard already finds herself.
This is a subject area without logic or coherence as far as American broadcasters and press are concerned.
Gabbard is an independent-minded, tough, and intelligent woman, just the kind the establishment (which of course includes the major broadcasters and newspapers) does not want to see running for president.
I think these folks have already determined the outsider, the woman they would support, Kamala Harris, a fresh-looking figure who apparently slept her way into the California political establishment in recent years and has not a critical word to say about anything that matters.
Obama redux.
