Ronny:
Hey, think you could spare a million or two in anonymous contributions to my super PAC?

Benny:
We're kid of cash-strapped. Decrease in Republican-approved foreign aid, know what I mean? (wink wink)

Ronny:
OK, tell you what. Help me get elected, and I'll station fifty fighter-bombers in Israel, get you guys unlimited state of the art eavesdropping software, and increase our foreign aid to you by a factor of five. How does THAT sound?

Benny:
That sounds pretty good, except for the fancy software.

Ronny:
How's that?

Benny:
We already have it. We bribed a MAGA officer in the Pentagon, and stole that from you last year.

“I know what America is. America is a thing you can move very easily, move it in the right direction,”


Binyamin Netanyahu, in a just-released and secretly taped private meeting in 2001. He also reveals his approach to the Palestinians:

“beat them up, not once but repeatedly, beat them up so it hurts so badly, until it’s unbearable.”


And so Operation Cast Lead makes more sense, doesn't it? He also describes how the notion that the Palestinians destroyed the Oslo process was a cover for his own sabotage: Netanyahu exposed the naked truth to his hosts at Ofra: he destroyed the Oslo accords with his own hands and deeds, and he's even proud of it. After years in which we were told that the Palestinians are to blame, the truth has emerged from the horse's mouth.

And how did he do it? He recalled how he conditioned his signing of the 1997 Hebron agreement on American consent that there be no withdrawals from "specified military locations," and insisted he choose those same locations, such as the whole of the Jordan Valley, for example. "Why is that important? Because from that moment on I stopped the Oslo Accords," he boasts. ... He calls then-U.S. President Bill Clinton "extremely pro-Palestinian," and says the Palestinians want to throw us into the sea. With such retrograde beliefs, no one can convincingly argue that he wants an agreement.'

he's going there to discuss the cost of Desantis's support as president. in other words, we'll ignore your crimes if you help me get elected.
