The Trump Administration vs. The State Department

Sounds awful, doesn't it? Trump ambassador blocks scrutiny of Israel. But the reality is that the State Department is chock full of careerists who are, and have traditionally been, reflexively opposed to Zionism and the success of the state of Israel. So lumping them in with the savage and backward Arab world is just peachy for them. But the U.S. ambassador would have none of it, and shot down their plan.

“Israel is a democracy whose army does not engage in gross violations of human rights,” Friedman wrote, adding that Israel “has a robust system of investigation and prosecution in the rare circumstance where misconduct occurs.” Besides, he added, “it would be against [U.S.] national interests” to take a step that could limit Israel’s access to military equipment – “especially in a time of war.”
Nothing wishy-washy there!

11 The careerists at State are like all the Progressives; believers in their unique ability to manipulate history via being at the controls. And when anything, especially reality, refuses to conform, it must be destroyed. They need power not like an egomaniac but like a junkie. Just a little bit more and then everything will be alright. No matter how much they fail, the fix is always the same; just a little more power.

25 The State Department is basically the UN on US soil. Its almost inevitable that a job that hires diplomats is going to end up being this way. I'm fond of the idea of the department of defense and the department of state being at odds, it makes them sort of a check and balance system. But it swings wildly: in peace State gets too powerful and too much control and in war, Defense gets too big and powerful.

Its kind of what Eisenhower warned about in his final speech.

61 I was reading some other piece yesterday about how the "Foreign Policy Establishment" absolutely hates Ambassador Friedman. The reason is simple - for 60 years, the Establishment has said that, in order to keep the arabs happy, the US has to play at being some kind of impartial referee, and thus should always be talking up the Palestinans, taking their side, telling them what they were doing wrong.

Can you imagine the US Ambassador to China lecturing President Xi on human rights?

So Friedman doesn't do this at all, instead he wholeheartedly supports the Isreali Govm't, and surprise, the US-Israeli relationship is now better than it has EVER been. So who's unhappy? The Palestinians, that's who. Funny thing is that nobody else in the region cares anymore, the Egyptians and the Saudis having long since given up on the Pali's. But the Pali's good friends in DC are still cheerleading for them! And Ambassador Friedman is telling them all to go Piss Off, and they are Very Unhappy about it.

Question: What was purpose of Fast Furious?

Answer: Collapse support for the 2nd A, allowing for mass banning of legal weapons.



Question: What was the purpose of Obamacare?

Answer: Collapse the American health care system and open the door to Single Player.



In 2014, somebody (Obama *cough cough*) decided to play "Pied Piper"
in Central America, and organized the mass movement of non-adults
towards America (In essence, a reverse FF).



Why? To collapse the immigration system, and set up a perfect pretext for MASS AMNESTY for 14 ~ 30 million illegals.

Interesting that in the obligatory evenhanded pro and con part, the con is that he said something stupid to the State Department, which both he and the State Department deny.

There have been times that I've thought Israel was in the wrong (say, settlements policies 20 years ago, but I don't remember the details), but I endorse the notion that we are pro-Israel, full stop.

Now, here I would look to the Horde to put me some historical learning. In '67 they had to fly French Mirages because we had laws against helping them.

How did we go from there to being their biggest backer?

So he must act based on "broad opinion" as opposed to representing his country, and more specifically, his president?

Well, the left's mantra for the last 20 years has been that "people of color" are harder working, more morally pure, and just all-around better than white people and white Americans particularly.

So, yeah, it's been the left's strategy for decades to bring in tens of millions of central and south Americans and make them citizens.

The Chamber of Commerce allies with the left on this for their own reasons (low wages). So, both the GOP and DNC are both in favor of bringing in tens of millions of central and south americans.

Until now, nobody in gov't has opposed this plan.

The Left believes that America should not be a sovereign nation, therefore having only minor penalties for crossing the border illegally is what they view as a 'compromise position'.

yeah, I have some misgivings about Netanyahu, but Israel has been an open Western culture for a long time. But we only recently got the Saudis to (perhaps/hopefully) take down some of their own terrorists, thanks to Trump's New American Order opposing the NWO that is DeepState.

Now, it doesn't necessarily follow from one to the other, so to make sure it has to be guided along by ruthless people of violence and then the inevitable will occur.

140 There was one other little thing in the article, for those who read it through - I don't think the Politico author even realized how it undercut his entire argument, or else he wouldn't have put it in.

There was a dispute earlier this year, the Isreali's said Abbas and the Pali's were going to file a complaint against America at the ICC (International Criminal Court), and do to us not recognizing that body and some resolutions, that could mean that the Pali's would have to close their DC office if they did that. Friedman made that point earlier this year, and told people about it, and the DC Establishment all said "How dare you say that! They haven't done it, this is just anti-Palestinian propaganda you're pushing on the part of the Isreali''s, our CIA hasn't confirmed it, why don't you trust American intelligence? You must be a sellout!!!"

Well a month or two later Abbas and the Palestinians did exactly what the Israelis and Friedman said the would, in complete contradiction of what the establishment said would happen. But the still waived their rules and let the Pali's keep their DC office, even though they shouldn't have.

So that's another thing they hate Friedman for - he was right, the Establishment was completely wrong, and he proved it in public. Oh, how they hate him for that.

Israel would have been much better off keeping Sinai. Sure, there was some advantage in having Egypt ostracized by the rest of the arabs and moving away from the Soviets ... but that wasn't worth the price, really. Egypt would have come around on much better terms later.

160 Are you willing to make an exception? My oldest child is a career
employee at the State Department, currently posted to a country not
exactly friendly with the US.



When I was in college all I ever wanted to be was a diplomat with the State Department. I thought that would be just the coolest job ever.
But first my military career...where once I was in Turkey (of all places) and was at a meeting with colleagues from our various security teams working in Europe. Most of them worked embassies...I was in a different billet.
They hated their jobs and assignments. 80% of their time (and their wives' time) was taken up escorting congressional asshats (and their idiot wives) around to all the best shopping centers.
I'm convinced that State, like most of the DC bureaucracy, is peopled by some really good folks trying to do a good job, but led by really bad, politicked and corrupt jerks.

Money. Specifically, they've used their money to buy favors and friends in DC for decades. These people owe them their career and/or assistance with a personal matter. For example, even when Hillary was just starting out as a Senator she was using the money from her PAC (flush with cash from Bill's donors) to fund the PACs of other new Congressional Dems, giving them a great head start in their re-election. They've used their foundation, and all it's events to give MSM people the opportunity to host (prestige and a chance to network with VIPs). They use there money in all sorts of ways to buy loyalty and allies.

Evidence keeps pouring in and the left (MSM, Hollywood crazies, etc.) keeps getting more insane and hateful and seeking violence.

226 CNBC has a lead story up saying Trump misunderstands the concept of trade deficits.


Sure, go with that. Guy who has run an international business his entire adult life doesn't understand trade.


Versus the old guy, TFG, who was never (not once!) subjected to editorial criticism from any NBC platform, despite his all-encompassing complete and total economic illiteracy. The Democrats almost destroyed the economy, but, sure, go after Trump on economics.

Yeah, I don't think HRC will BE the nominee. But she'll attempt it, or try to make it seem she will as long as she can. And I think that's a good thing.

My money's on Kamala. She's a woman, and the Dems will need to turn the black vote - and I mean NEED too. If Trump can even retain the blacks who voted for him last time, they are royally screwed... and it sure looks like he'll probably pick up even more by 2020.

The money people are all that matters, that's why the Dems have their super-delegate system to begin with. Even they won't back a sure loser. That's why Bernie never stood a chance.
Also a late-game Draft Hillary movement saves her from a year-long primary campaign that everyone knows she can't physically survive.

I think the donors and DNC superdelegates badly miscalculated. Bernie might - MIGHT - have been able to pull out a win.

But as soon as the nominating conventions wrapped up... I knew Trump had that shit on lock. The RNC had a failure of nerve, and didn't knife him in the back at the Convention when they had the chance; the DNC did what was predictable and DID knife Bernie (they never have a failure of nerve).

And there was no doubt in my mind after that, of the outcome. I wasn't even worried.

324 Up until the 67 war it was mostly the French arming the Israelie Army
Posted by: Flawless Male Logic


The IDF Air Force flew Mirages, which were a fine airplane. The Israeli Army had M-48 tanks, and also had up gunned Shermans from WWII. They had a lot of American hardware in the ground IDF.
Jeeps, artillery, etc.

The main reason they flew Mirages was because the French made them a really good deal on buying them, and they were great planes for the Israeli needs at the time. And at that time, the French still had some guilt about the treatment of Jews in France during WWII.

But later, Metropolitan France (French North Africa, etc) and their ME trading partners, gave them a lot of grief about selling aircraft to Israel. So they stopped doing it.
Then Uncle Sugar stepped in and made deals to sell the Israelis A-4 Skyhawks and F-4 Phantoms. This was between the 1967 war and the Yom Kippur war of 1973.

327 The Clinton power is access to BigMoney, but they also have decades of blackmail material on everyone. (imo) Kompromat seems to be the biggest factor on how the various shadow people control the various governments.

I'd guess the Clinton Mob also has connections to the real "mob" ... and that we underestimated the criminal organizations that seem to have infiltrated most governments. Holder running guns to the cartels for instance, HSBC being caught laundering $2B for the drug cartels ... no one arrested, they keep operating above the law.

And the real depths of the corruption links with the big money puts all those oligarchs at risk. As we are told, Trump's drain the swamp, America first agenda is an existential threat to the cabals. So they may not all be united with each other, but they are united against power returning to "the people" via real law and order. (hence the hysteria of calling all Trump people, or even Trump neutral folks, white supremacists)

No way they'll run her. If she's pretty, then she's body-shaming all the Trigglypuffs. And if she's a vet, then she's done all sorts of icky shooty killy things.

I don't think she'd sway many veterans, they don't seem to play identity-politics quite like they are willing to play identity-capitalism (which I am completely okay with, for the record).

Playing the woman card a second time isn't going to gain them any ground they didn't have in 2016. More women aren't going to flock to her just because she's a girl that were Trump voters the first time around. They've already done all the damage they can with the caricature of Trump as a womanizer / misogynist. Is running a female candidate and dredging up old Access Hollywood tapes the play they think will work?

All this said, I hope that Trump realizes that he's gonna need more than punchy nicknames on Twitter to win 2020.

I suspect that that's right. The problem is that after achieving a critical population density of leftists, those who are not leftists get tired of the hassle of a hostile environment and move on.

Next stop: a monoculture. This phenomenon happens all the time in academia, and no doubt in Hollywood as well.
