Anyone listening to C-Span, Jim Lobe talking about neo-cons and
their problems. He sounds like Kristol, but is dissing them all the way.

1. I think I heard this yesterday: neo-cons pressuring Israel to expand war
Edited on Wed Aug-02-06 05:20 PM by HamdenRice
One of the most interesting observations Lobe made was that the neo-cons are more pro-Israel military invasion than the Israelis! But they are not actually pro-Israel; they are playing fast and loose with Israeli security.

Lobe was saying that Israeli's defense establishment has no interest in invading Syria, but the neo-cons are encouraging Israel to expand the war to Syria.

It's time for Israeli patriots to stand up and say they will not be the attack dogs for the neo cons, expanding the war in Lebanon in a way that is very dangerous for Israel, if it threatens the security of the state of Israel.

Are there pro-Israel patriots who can sign on to Lobe's observations?

2. Yep, sick ain't it! The neo-cons are always willing to have others
fight for their rights! I would be interested to know how many neo-cons have ever fought, not served in a military. I think I know the answer, but I still could be surprised.

This is the Republican last throes, deal. They know they can't get involved in anymore wars, the military is fighting it, so, they are trying to get Isreal to do the dirty work.

The problem they have is that Old Europe isn't biting (save Tony, who needs to save his legacy (peace would do that)), and neither is Syria or Iran. They got the US divide and conquer meme and they are not gonna play that card.

The US has not considered that their enemies are smarter than they re (hell, most of us are more educated and have highher IQ's than our elected officials, not too hard to do)).

I truly believe that KKKRove thought this was his October surprise, not!

C-span in the last few days showed that the hatred spawned by the Republicans has been focused back on them!
