I'm sorry: You only HOPE that all Israeli's are Islam-hating fanatics

Tomorrow's "Jerusalem Post" explains how America can get into its next war:

"AIPAC’s bipartisan reputation is in tatters and it sounds increasingly like a mouthpiece for Netanyahu and for hyper-partisan Republicans rather than the voice of the American Jewish community."

"The AIPAC op-ed insisted the group’s approach would “complement and enhance the administration’s efforts,” and that line would be credible if it didn’t have the feel of a set-up designed to discredit anything short of meeting its and Netanyahu’s maximalist and unrealistic demands was a sell-out of Israel. The AIPAC leaders echoed Netanyahu in calling on Congress to establish “acceptable terms of a final accord” that must include, at a minimum, “the dismantling” of Iran’s nuclear program."

"Netanyahu claims he wants a negotiated settlement to the Iranian nuclear problem, but his “three no’s” say something very different."

"In their Times op-ed, the two AIPAC leaders insisted that their hard line on Iran does not make them “warmongers,” but by echoing Netanyahu’s uncompromising terms they have to realize they give a different impression. More important, what they fail to grasp is that the war-wary American public, Jews and non-Jews, don’t share their hard-line view. That opens them to charges of advocating policies that put Israel’s – or Netanyahu’s – interests first, not America’s."

Explanatory note: The Jerusalem Post is not an Arab, antisemitic, terrorist publication.
