A bracing take on U.S. history from an Egyptian commentator:
This lobby’s vote always influences American elections, where certainly no candidate would veil his sheer partiality to the Jews and their state, Israel. However, it was George Washington who had misgivings about the Zionist Jews’ permeation into American society. He warned his people against their hegemonic ways, stating, “Americans, within one hundred years, will be used as their slaves and servants!”
Actually, no one can stand in the face of their unlimited greed. They want everything: wealth, power and advocates. And if the president does not work to their benefit, they will “politically assassinate” him or bring his life to an end. This is exactly what happened to late Democratic president, John Kennedy, in the ‘60s. So, we do not have to feel exceedingly optimistic.
I’m inferring from this that we offed GW; it’s not exactly clear. Maybe Mr. Bughdady can follow-up in another column.
I’m already thinking of variations on the Lenny Bruce joke: "Because he wouldn’t see a dentist."
And Kennedy – well, that’s just silly. What Jew would kill a guy who hired mishpokhe?
