It must be said that if you wait long enough, the perpetual
slippery slope machine will make the case for you. In fact, this is what just
happened thanks to the article that came under the title: “The Appalling Talk of
Boycotting Netanyahu” and the subtitle: “Congress has every right, and even an
obligation, to hear the Israeli leader speak about the Iranian threat.”
Written by the quintessential self-appointed Jewish leader:
Alan Dershowitz; and published on February 24, 2015 in the quintessential
Jewish mouthpiece: the Wall Street Journal – the article demonstrates that the
only strong thing about the American-Israeli alliance is the stink that the
fusion of the two entities has been generating all these years.
There has always been suspicion that Jewish activities on
the American political scene were not entirely kosher, but very few people
ventured to discuss the subject with the candor that would have shed enough
light on the subject to make it possible turning off the machine which keeps
the slope in perpetual lubrication. But Alan Dershowitz proved to be animated
by a character so flawed, he made the case that – far from being a strong
alliance – the relationship between America
and Israel
is worse than unhealthy; it is obscene. Why is that?
Well, a normal alliance is based on the premise that it
remains free of coercion. It becomes a strong alliance when each member
demonstrates a willingness to forgo something voluntarily to better accommodate
the other member or members. It ceases to become normal when a member
constantly pushes their luck, demanding more from the others. It can also
become obscene when a member pushes their luck for no reason than to show he
has the power to bully the others. This is what Alan Dershowitz – a recognized
longtime formulator of the American Israeli relationship – has been doing from
the start.
It must be said that in the matter of governing a ship of
state, two codes of conduct are followed. One code is based on protocol and
politics, the other on the law. The people who run the ship are given enough
discretionary powers to use the protocol and the politics in a manner that
suits them best. This is what expedites the decision making process which the
democracies are famous for. But when it comes to the law, little flexibility is
accorded to the members … and this is what can hold things back, even to the
point of total paralysis.
And so, even though it is impossible to look at the
contemporary American scene without noticing that it is paralyzed politically,
and even though the suspicion has been there to the effect that the Jews have
something to do with this paralysis, no one put their finger on how it is
happening … until now. Very simply, the Jews have confused the two codes of
conduct to give themselves maximum flexibility in promoting their interests.
They do so by making things look like protocol and politics when they need to;
and they do it by paralyzing everything else by making things look legal when
they need to.
Dershowitz shows us how this is done practically in five
steps. (1) He sets up the confusion: “This controversy is not simply about
protocol and politics – it is about the constitutional system.” (2) He begins
the legal talk: “it is the responsibility of every member of Congress to listen
to Netanyahu.” (3) He creates the actual confusion by applying 'violate' which
is a legal term to protocol which is not: “the idea that some members of
Congress will not give [Netanyahu] the courtesy of listening violates protocol.”
He continues (4) by attacking the integrity of his opponent,
the President of the Unites States: “What the president objects to is not that
Netanyahu will speak but the content of what he intends to say.” And (5) by
coercing: “This will endanger support for Democrats among pro-Israel voters. I
would never vote for a member of Congress who walked out on Israel 's prime
minister.”
But wait a minute. This is Alan Dershowitz talking. He is
the flawed character that dissed President Carter by having him uninvited after
being invited; something that Alan has been bragging about ever since.
What's going on? It is the obscenity of the situation displaying its ugly head.
The truth is that the Jews are not looking for someone to protect them; they
are looking for a cat they can come home and kick when everything they touch starts
to suck except the vacuum cleaner. And so they procured America and
made it their cat.
