Matt Lee is really awesome. He asks the hard questions no one else dares to ask at State Department press conferences.
Jen Psaki, on the other hand, makes me throw up a little in my mouth. Every time she opens hers. Like in this clip for instance.
Okay, but what if it had been a Jew who threw a Molotov cocktail at an Arab? Would you consider HIM a terrorist?
Wait. Don’t answer that. We both know it’s an academic question, since it would never happen. Reminds me of all the people who say that checkpoints discriminate against Arabs because the soldiers don’t check Jews.
“Um,” I always say. “That’s because Jews don’t blow up buses?”
Like I said. Academic question. Of course, since we’ve never actually seen her boss’ transcripts, that might not be the best word choice here.
So there you have it. From the horse’s mouth. The State Department as presently constituted is unfit to mediate a settlement. Bibi should so inform these imbeciles ASAP.
Futile to try to mediate a settlement, so it’s immaterial.
Not futile if your reason for trying is to blame Israel for the failure and weaken Israel’s support in Congress, so that you can take further steps to isolate Israel, embargo arms shipments, and arm and finance her enemies.
Indeed impossible with islam 1.0
You’ve named the wrong end of the horse.
Maybe tacky Psaki thinks a molotov cocktail is just something her boss likes to sip at the endless fundraiser dinners he attends.
White Russian, more likely. Maybe they can make a drink called “Obama Reset.”
that isnt what she said
what she did was what all spokesholes do…play dumb
“im not going to speculate, i dont have the details….”
thing is, state shouldve gotten the details before they put out a statement
but state hates the jew….always has
She also said that even if he had been throwing firebombs, that would not be terrorism.
Right. That’s how I understood things exactly.
Walt, I think Aussie Dave had the same take. But he was the only one I know, other than you, that took it that way.
