First off and before you throw this in my face … I am NOT Antisemitic nor Anti–Israel, I am Pro-American, and what follows would apply equally to any nation filling the role described in this commentary.
Here are some vital questions that should be asked at the highest levels of this government on down to the living-room of every American citizen.
AIPAC, and other related lobbies are an extremely powerful and influential force, with banking, the Federal Reserve, and the media at their backs. They put continuous and unending pressure on the US Congress and the Executive branch to do their bidding, almost unquestioned.
Anyone who displays, or has has a history of displaying negativity for the actions of Israel, will never be successful at participating in the higher levels of American Government by virtue of the lack of appropriate funding or support. And anyone within this government who is found to respond unfavorably toward them are quickly purged from said ranks by virtue of the same mechanisms.
It would seem that Israeli’s are the only ones allowed to hold duel citizenship in strategic or high ranking US government positions. Questioning this, or even showing concern for this, is considered by them or their agents to be unconscionable, or tantamount to treason.
Well I am not running for office … and never intend to. TLB will not cower from asking the tough, valid and necessary questions!
What I would really like to know is …
How a country about the size of New Jersey can exercise such massive influence, power and control over the largest economy and most powerful military force ever to exist?
Why is it that many Americans with dual citizenship with Israel are allowed to serve in high office in this country knowing that their allegiance is NOT in total to this country, but indeed divided between two countries, each having a different personality and strategic mission?
Why is this even permitted in the first place?
Is this even Constitutional?
So when they swear an oath to two different countries, where does their true loyalty lie … because the answer CAN’T be both?
Have they ever been asked this question … under oath?
Are they asked this question whenever a conflict of interest between the two nations they have sworn to serve arises … under oath?
Doesn’t their oath require total loyalty to We The People and the Constitution … So how can that be reconciled with loyalty sworn to two separate nations?
If push comes to shove (hostilities) between America and Israel who will they support or favor?
Will their sworn loyalties to Israel embroil us in conflict we don’t need, or isn’t warranted on our behalf?
Will we attack Iran, Syria or any other regional sovereign nation because they threaten us from the other side of the world, or because Israel thinks we should and thus dragging us in by leveraging their many well positioned, influential and loyal citizens in this or any American administration?
Is it not paramount to this nations sovereignty and security to know beyond doubt where the loyalties of those making these decisions resides in ANY scenario with conflicting interests?
Why does every US Presidential or Congressional candidate feel that in order to be elected they need the blessing of Israel’s power elite, and why doesn’t this immediately raise red flags?
Why does AIPAC hold much more sway over Congress Than We The People? (Read that one again)
What the heck is wrong with this whole picture?
Have I denigrated anyone, any religion, any nation … or merely asked pertinent and vital questions pertaining to the sovereignty of America?
Sometimes tough questions have to be asked, and if they are not, We The People will surely suffer the consequences!
Next we need to consider the questions above and their corresponding answers (many we all know instinctively). This forces us to realize that a foreign entity resides firmly entrenched within this government of, by and for the people, exercising influence far beyond what our very founding documents deem acceptable, and far beyond what We The People (the true leaders of this Republic) can exercise.
And my last question …
If any influence is ever exercised in favor of Israel over American interests by any of these agents, and for any reasons …
IS THIS TREASON … ??? … !!!
The Only Answer …
