The Scarlet Letter

That would be the letter “A”, for Anti-Semite, and it’s the one they are trying to brand on Tucker Carlson’s forehead.

Two of the main news sites I hit – PJMedia and Ace of Spades bag on the dude nearly daily. I don’t get it. He’s little different than any other podcaster, like Rogan. He interviews interesting people, he asks interesting questions. Ones that few others are asking.

I’ve seen more than a few of his videos on Israel and the Gaza war. I didn’t see anything wrong with them and I don’t think it’s anti-semitic to ask questions; like why we are getting into a war with Iran? It’s not clear it’s in our interest whatsoever, and if it is they aren’t explaining it very well. The only reason I can see we’re bothering with this is that Israel wants it.

I don’t think it’s anti-semitic to ask just how many Gazans the IDF has massacred. From what I’ve read and heard, it’s a shit-ton. Sure, Israel was brutally attacked from Gaza. But I don’t think every Gazan was behind it. He interviewed an aid worker in Gaza, and if what half he said is true it’s enough to turn your guts.

He isn’t the only one that has had this content. I’ve seen it elsewhere. Just not on Conservative Inc’s sites.

I’m in the Eric Peters Camp here.

Americans – excepting those such as Mike Huckabee – tire of Israel’s interests being conflated with their interests.. They are not the same thing. It is difficult for most Americans to divine how it could be in America’s interests – i.e., in their interests – to launch not just a few missiles this time but maybe a full-scale war against Iran.

But they’re developing nuclear weapons! 

It’s become tiresome.

And so what if they are? Israel has them, after all. It takes a lot of chutzpah to have scores of them – and to have acquired them contrary to and in violation of international agreements, the same ones being used to “make a case” for attacking Iraq – and at the same time, screech like a frightened woman over the chance that Iran might have one or two of them, which would make it capable of defending itself against an attack. – Eric Peters

Interesting…

“Netanyahu’s” family origins are not in Palestine but in eastern Europe. How then has he (or any other person of non-Semitic descent) got a “right” to the land taken from the Palestinians – who actually are Semitic and have a claim to the land, having lived there as a people continuously for thousands of years – in the name of Jewish people? This latter is very important, too. The “Netanyahus” of eastern Europe have bearded themselves as Jewish, in order to milk the sympathy many people had for Jewish people. But it is precisely because of this ploy that sympathy for the state of Israel is on the wane.

They tire of being denounced as haters of people who happen to be Jewish because the do not like what the state of Israel is doing.

People have figured out what’s going on; how could they not? It has become so obnoxiously blatant that only persons utterly addled by the Darby-Scofield mind virus – such as Huckabee – are still buying the Our Greatest Ally rap. – Eric Peters

TPTB need to come up with a damn good explanation of what they are doing – other than ‘supporting our greatest ally’ before they send our kids to die in a foreign land for something they don’t care one bit about.
