Big Surprise, Neo Crusaders Get It WRONG Again.

Rather than learn from their mistakes, Republicans and their ODS (Obama Derangement Syndrome) allies still refuse to learn from history. Desperately, they try to find something... anything that will cast doubt on the evil, "heinous administration" of President Barack HUSSEIN Obama </snark> and turn the Jewish community (and vote) away from the Democratic Party. Then, like a band of three year old children learning to speak, they blindly repeat it over and over again. The only problem is that unlike a band of three year old children who don't know any better, these are adults, and this behavior illustrates that they simply have lost their ability to do any critical thinking other than repeat the mantras told to them by those who suffer a deranged hatred of Teh Ebilz Mooslim President Barack HUSSEIN Obama </snark>. (I just stress the HUSSEIN part of the Presidents name because that is all the Neo-Crusaders see when they view the Obama Administration)

Today's manufactured outrage by the "Neo Crusader" crowd comes from goofy rightists complaining about Secretary of State John Kerry's commentary in Turkey. Admittedly today's comment, at first glance by Secretary of State Kerry does not seem to be the smartest thing the man has ever said (to say the least). According to reports (though I would like to see the entire transcript for context), Kerry stated:

“I know it’s an emotional issue with some people. I particularly say to the families of people who were lost in the incident we understand these tragedies completely and we sympathize with them.”.

“I mean, I have just been through the week of Boston and I have deep feelings for what happens when you have violence and something happens and you lose people that are near and dear to you. It affects a community, it affects a country. We’re very sensitive to that,”

Now, anyone with half a mind would see that this is an obviously bungled attempt by Secretary Kerry to try to express sympathy for Turkish parents who lost children in the Mavi Marmara incident.  The Secretary is over in Turkey trying to build a regional alliance against Iranian hegemonistic actions and is as they say, "playing to the crowd". I mean, what is he supposed to say to these folks "Hey, your kids were supporting Terror and you know, the Israelis were right, in fact, they didn't use enough bullets, so tough shit."

He knows that the Mavi Marmara incident is front and center in the minds of Turks and is trying let them know that we Americans are sympathetic to parents who have lost children no matter what the circumstances. I don't think he was intentionally comparing the Bombing of the Boston Marathon to the deaths of Turkish nationals trying to run Israel's legal blockade of Gaza.

That said, this is a bungled comment from the Secretary. The Mavi Marmara and the Boston Marathon bombing are two completely different types of events. One was a terrorist bombing of an internationally famous race, and the other was the Turkish citizens running an armed blockade of Gaza, an area ruled by the terror group Hamas. In light of this, hopefully the U.S. will offer a clarification of Kerry's comment and explain this further.

At least however, the Israeli leadership understood what happened and while I am sure they were none too pleased at Kerry's miscue they rightly commented:

Senior Israeli leaders, including Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, Justice Minister Tzipi Livni, Regional Cooperation Minister Silvan Shalom, Economy Minister Naftali Bennett, and Deputy Foreign Minister Ze'ev Elkin all made a point of not responding to Kerry's comparison on Monday.

High ranking diplomatic officials in Jerusalem said they believed Kerry was misunderstood and he was really only trying to show empathy with the people of Turkey on a national level. The officials accused the press of deliberately trying to twist what Kerry had said.

 But unlike high officials in Israel, the American ODS drones that repeat nonsense like: 

"We have to understand that when it comes to the Jewish people and when it comes to Middle East foreign policy the Obama administration does not only not know what the hell it is doing, but they honestly believe that Jewish self-defense is a form of aggression.  This administration seems deeply enamored of the old medieval view that the only good Jew is a weak and defenseless Jew."

Ok... now I know we should feel sorry for these folks. Obviously, the only thing they are using their heads for is a hat rack. Still it is hard to see the kind of commentary like this, that populates the Rightwing, as anything other than utterly and completely delusional... UNLESS of course these folks simply don't understand the meanings of the nonsense that they utter.

For instance, when they talk about the "defenseless Jews", do these people actually even read the news or understand the words that are spoken and actions that are taken. For instance, is it wanting Jews to be defenseless when Sec. Kerry is talking about the IAF (Israeli Air Force) using Turkish Air bases as part of making a strike on Iran?

OR, I guess it is wanting Israel to be "defenseless" when noted anti-Semite and hater of Israel </snark> Sec. of Defense Chuck Hagel says this:

"Israel is a sovereign nation and every sovereign nation has the right to defend itself and protect itself. Israel will do that. It must do that," Hagel told reporters aboard a U.S. military flight to Israel.

"Iran presents a threat in its nuclear program," Hagel said. "Israel will make the decisions that Israel must make to protect itself and defend itself."

As well as this report coming in:

Hagel told reporters as he flew to Israel he intended to offer to sell Israel new, advanced weapons that could make an attack on Iran more decisive.

These include V-22 Osprey tilt-rotor aircraft, which can transport troops and patrol borders and nearby seas, and KC-135 Stratotanker aerial refueling military aircraft, as well as anti-radiation missiles and advanced radar for Israeli fighters.

The Pentagon said Friday it was finalizing the deal.

The KC-135s could be especially useful in the event of an Israeli strike on Iran because the tankers would let Israeli warplanes travel longer distances than they could earlier, the Journal said.

Experts have long said Israel's lack of ample refueling capacity was a key obstacle to an effective Israeli strike on Iran.

Yep, selling Israel advanced weaponry to protect it's borders and give it long range re-fueling capability... Man oh man is that leaving Israel defenseless.

But this is just among many things that the U.S. is actually doing to shore up Israeli Defensive and Strategic capabilities. Unfortunately, those things seem to get muted by the goofy right when it comes to talking about an Administration that has gone "above and beyond" to show it's friendship and alliance with Israel.

In the 2012 election American voters were able to see through the Neo-Crusader, deranged mumblings of the Right Wing and voted for the President by the overwhelming margin of 70% - 30%.  Nonetheless (and I think this says something about the overall intelligence of the administrations critics), rather than try to change their losing strategy of ignoring the overwhelming facts and reality that this administration is one of the best friends of Israel and trying to support American efforts with Israel, instead the they continue their silly nonsense of continuously droning on about how President Obama just wants to see Jews enslaved.

Fortunately, we (Jewish voters) have an I.Q. higher than a bag of hammers and we are informed as to the truth of the situation. And because of this, their efforts will always fail. But hey... you know they will simply keep on trying... Heh.
