This guy identifies himself as a reporter working for NewsIsrael13. @yosefyisrael25 #BREAKING Oman and Bahrain to follow UAE in normalizing Israel ties: American official tells Palestinian newspaper Al-Quds Yosef YisraelThis passes the smell test -- it has long been known that the Gulf States of UAE, Bahrain, and Oman were in an open-secret alliance with Israel (as well as Saudi Arabia) against another open-secret alliance of the hardline Sunni Islamists of Turkey and the hardline Shi'a Islamists of Iran. Update: Ben Rhodes is crying as his terrorist cronies in Iran are being weakened.

Although it would appear to be a good thing that Saudi Arabia and Israel are no longer overtly hostile, and that the UAE is formally normalizing relations with Israel, and that other Gulf states are moving toward normalizing their relationships with Israel, this is not something to celebrate. This kind of fractured diplomacy leaves other Middle East state actors in ambiguous territory. Any peace deal that does not include Iran, Syria and Egypt does more harm than good. These partial steps are of no benefit in the context of the possible - a comprehensive Middle East Peace Plan.

Feel-good story of the day: Bozo disabled guy in Lodi (sleepy town in central California) idiotically rolled his wheelchair onto the tracks as a train was approaching. And of course...he got stuck. So he sat there kind of halfheartedly and not very actively trying to get his electric wheelchair to break loose from the tracks, not really realizing that a high-speed freight train was bearing down on him. So a (female Hispanic, not that that is relevant) cop was driving by, and saw him stuck on the tracks and the train coming in at top speed, so she screeched to a halt, sprinted over to him, and physically yanked him backwards out of the wheelchair - with about half a second to spare.

This is what most of the "lies" lists are full of, by the way. Trump statement: "It's going to be a big, beautiful concrete wall 30 feet high." Truth: The wall is made mostly of steel, and averages closer to 20 feet high. Puffery isn't lying, nor is exaggeration. Trump's a big-talking blowhard, but not a liar. And he does try to deliver or successfully delivers on what he says he will do. Posted by: Joe Mannix (Not a cop!) at August 13, 2020 06:19 PM (hYcqw) 94

@25 Too bad Anwar Sadat took a risk to benefit that bucktoothed joo hating spank monkey, Dhimmi Carter.
--------------------- Sadat would have done it with or without Carter. The whole point of the 1973 war was to give the Egyptians something to brag about (which it did; they managed to briefly scare the Hell out of the Israelis). Sadat could then use that to get a peace agreement with Israel, as the Egyptian population would view the agreement as earned instead of forced on them by Israel. And the return of Gaza (Sadat's real goal) would be a part of that agreement. Carter just gave the two leaders a nice place to meet. Posted by: junior at August 13, 2020 06:20 PM (qGPr/) 104

What hurts most about John Bolton isn't just that at heart, he was nothing but a traitor like so many others. No what hurt was that we had to find out that he had been a Total Fucking Idiot the whole time, Wrong about Almost Everything, and he managed to convince us that he was Some Big Shmartie.
None of the "professionals" could believe that a total fucking amateur like Trump could waltz in and make better decisions than they could.

Posted by: Tom Servo I would note that Donald Trump is not..."a total fucking amateur". He has been making all kinds of deals (ie, negotiating) with all kinds of powerful people for a long time. His professional business life has been years of training in how to size up people and judge just how much he can negotiate with them. Obama was a senator for 2/3 of a term, and spent a lot of hit campaigning. He was likely the MOST incompetent President we ever had. And he picked the idiot splooge Biden as his running mate.

And the Palestinians have no one to blame but themselves. The dumb asses had a good run. They snowed the world for decades. but frankly no one has the stomach for their whiny kleptocratic bullshit anymore.
If they had made peace with Israel 20 years ago what would their position be today? Israel, if only to get access to cheap labor, would have built roads and factories and manufacturing. They would be prosperous, if not downright wealthy. Gaza would be a lovely seaside resort town loaded with tourists. All of Iran's bluster has done nothing by drive countries toward Israel, the guys with the big stick, the guys happy to sell advanced weapons. For whatever antisemitism they might have, Arabs realize the Israelis will just leave them alone if they are left alone. That they are no threat. Iran is a threat.

If you look at HOW Trump negotiates, you understand WHY there is a deal, and why legions of state department oafs would fail. Trump basically ignores the Palestinians - who fucking cares what they think about anything? He's not desperate for a deal. He tries lots of things all at once. And he asks for what he really wants. No half ass "confidence building measures". That is why there is any deal at all.
Also Trump doesn't fall for the fake "Why I never!" bullshit. Diplomats are used to talking to each other like high school girls, all fake pretend offenses and virtue signaling. Countries pretending to be offended by simple requests. Posted by: Inspector Kemp at August 13, 2020 06:49 PM (8Xxh3) 290

By the by, Israel has been bombing the shit out of Iran at will in Syria for years. Not only that, they've done so mostly unscathed. Meaning they can utterly evade Russian, Syrian, Turkish, and Iranian defenses. And they have intercepted and destroyed anything shot back at them.

Who said Reagan had nothing to do with the fall of the Soviet Union. It was our beating them at the arms race that caused the collapse and the threat of SDI.
Posted by: Sharon(willow's apprentice) at August 13, 2020 06:57 PM (sd8p +++++++ I heard this argument (Reagan didn't cause the USSR breakup) routinely when I was in college, and they still trot it out in stupid wonkish journals from time to time. And SDI was a major power play, and he played the USSR perfectly with it when he offered to share the technology with them in the interests of peace. They refused. That hurt.

BTW, guys and gals, this technique is spelled out in detail in "Art of the Deal." When dealing with a particular difficult negotiation, you start on the periphery. You negotiate with more agreeable parties who hold an interest (albeit a smaller one) and use those negotiations to solidify your position with the primary negotiating party.
Essentially, UAE, Oman and Bahrain are going to gain benefits from their agreements that will fire start their economies. Then all you do is sit back and wait for the Egyptians, Jordanians, and Palestinians to notice. The leaders of those countries will have a difficult problem...because in today's immediate information transfer the citizens of those countries will start to wonder just who is looking out for whom. Indirect pressure to come to the table is better than a bomb being shoved up your posterior by your own people. Every sitting US president has always started their Middle East peace plan negotiations with Palestine. There was no pressure for Palestine to seriously come to the table. This US president is going to make it very uncomfortable for them to play that game. No one likes to be left behind. If half of the Middle East starts diversifying their services/products and generates equitable living conditions as a result...the other half of the Middle East is going to gain self-interest real f$cking fast.

I dislike-as does everybody else-how Sean Hannity constantly interrupts. I just watched the clip (linked in the sidebar) of AG Bill Barr with Mark Levin. Levin is a very good interviewer. He asks questions and allows Barr to answer. It's as if Hannity is so in need of the spotlight or has ADD that he can't shut up. And yes, I know Hannity has done some good things, but he's so annoying.

I heard this argument (Reagan didn't cause the USSR
breakup) routinely when I was in college, and they still trot it out in stupid wonkish journals from time to time.

By the by, worth explaining how the Mideast actually works.
Egypt and Jordan have peace deals with Israel, but they are more of the cold peace variety. The USE deal is very important. Because several countries that do not recognize Israel are highly dependent on the UAE. That is to say, with the USE recognition, these countries are going to have a very hard time not following along. That includes: Bahrain, Oman, Bangladesh, Indonesia, and Malaysia. UAE will pressure these countries to go along. Pakistan will be pressured but probably wont go along, solely because they share a border with Iran. From a political cover standpoint, other countries might join in - might as well go as a group. That would include Mauritania, Morocco, Tunisia, Brunei, Mali, Comoros, and Niger. That will leave Algeria, Djibouti, Iraq, Kuwait (ditto), Lebanon, Libya, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Somalia, Sudan, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan "hostile" to Israel. If the Saudis jump, expect most of the rest to fall in line as well. Leaving Sudan, Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan, Iran, and Pakistan. Posted by: Inspector Kemp at August 13, 2020 07:27 PM (8Xxh3) 500

Trump deserves a Nobel peace prize for getting Israel and the UAE to admit they have a crush on each other.
Based on the standard applied when awarding the first Communist American President his major award, that he single handedly willed the waves to not rise and the glaciers to stop melting while wearing Chancellor Merkel's panties on his head Trump's should already be in the mail. Yes, I am well aware how much the first Communist President sacrificed much for his. After it is rumored that Merkel swapped panties 3 times a year. My heart goes all aflutter when I think of him, sort of like having a stroke. Posted by: Anti Marx - Pro Lennon at August 13, 2020 10:06 PM (Fmrwt) Processing 0.09, elapsed 0.096 seconds. |
