    Are you in Slo-Moe ? - I just Addressed the Claim

    Unfortunately the Quote was not recorded and cannot be independently verified
    But when we compare it to WORDS we see and hear spilling from this Pustules
    ...............................mouth one can easily ascertain the likely Validity of the Quote

    If he can value the United States as a THING, easily steered from getting in the Way
    of him committing Collective Murder & Punishment upon Palestinians one can reach
    a fairly sound conclusion as to whether he could "squeeze such a THING and allow
    it to dry up & blow away, -
    when it served his purpose.

    Conclusion:
    Given this insight - The Quote is more likely Valid than NOT


    Or does Willful Ignorance have such a grip on you that you cannot perceive
    ..............................................................................................my meaning in this regard

    Okay, thanks.

    Now I don't feel bad that I refused to extend any credence, whatsoever, to the nonsense which you post here.

    Now, you may continue with your regularly scheduled defending of Iran. And yes, I do still love you bro.

    So what?

    That still doesn't change the fact that Israel is America's greatest security threat, has stolen more US technology & secrets than any other country and sold them to the former USSR (Jonathan Pollard) & Is currently stealing US secrets and passing them on to the Chinese.

    Yes, the quote I originally cited is legitimate.

    Netanyahu made the quote while meeting with Jonathan Pollard who was in a US jail in North Carolina

    funny, the earliest and first source for this quote says otherwise:

    https://web.archive.org/web/2010112...pecial_Reports/092105Madsen/092105madsen.html

    U.S. intelligence sources report that the one Israeli who is considered an extreme threat to U.S. national security is former prime minister and current prime minister hopeful Binyamin Netanyahu. Not only has Netanyahu visited convicted Israeli spy Jonathan Pollard in his North Carolina prison cell and advocated strenuously for his release, but he was once overheard by an ex-CIA agent as saying to a group of his supporters, "Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away." Considering the damage the neocons and their Israeli facilitators are causing for U.S. national security, Netanyahu may soon have his wish.



    give it up bro, the quote is fake

    your link provides NO location, NO date, NO info on who he spoke to.

    just more evidence the quote is bullshit.

    Story #1. Bibi said the quote to Jonathan Pollard in his jail cell. Meanwhile Pollard has never claimed such a thing.

    Story #2. Bibi said the quote to a bunch of supporters and an unknown ex-CIA agent spilled the beans. No clue who this supposed ex-CIA agent is, when the quote was said, where it was said, etc.



    Quote....is....bullshit.

    He is more threatening to attack Israel with a Nuke.

    The question should be, if Iran all of a sudden threw a surprise Nuke at Jeruselem destroying it, what would be the rest of the worlds reaction? Would we obliterate Iran with missiles or goto war with Iran like we did with Iraq?

    No we thought it was an opportunity to spread freedom and democracy to a part of the world that has always been barbaric and run by whichever tribe and or faction of Islam is strongest and we should have learned that's a waste of time in that part of the world.

    Because of America's MSM pro Israel bias(1), any quote that reflects poorly on Israel or its leaders has a short shelf life if it gets any attention at all.

    If it was a fake quote, any number of the pro Israel media outlets would widely & loudly denounce it as such but they cannot because it's a genuine quote & certainly consistent with Netanyahu's actions.

    What I do to verify a quote is to Google the quote & see how frequently it appears. A fake quote either doesn't appear at all or only appears in 1 or 2 places while there are pages & pages of sources citing this particular Netanyahu's quote.

    I've cited this quote several times over the last year and no one has disputed it until a couple of days ago. Therefore, I will continue to cite this disturbing quote with a clear conscience that it is valid & reflects the true nature of the US - Israeli "alliance".

    yes, the quote appears very frequently in Neo-Nazi, white supremacist, and anti-semitic websites. Along with other crazy conspiracy theory sites.

    now, was the quote made to Jonathan Pollard or to a former CIA agent and Bibi supporters?

    when was it made? where? how come nobody with a name has verified the quote?

    its bullshit bro, let it go

    according to Wayne Madsen, who is the oldest source for this quote, Bibi did NOT say this to Pollard but to a group of right-wing supporters, one of whom is ex-CIA.

    so which is it?

    when did Pollard detail this encounter?

    or.....

    who is this ex-CIA agent? where was the encounter and when?

    Would it be a surprise if he did say those words after all it is on record that he deliberately broke the US sponsored Oslo peace deal

    Arafat also violated Oslo by allowing deadly terrorism against the Jews.

    but yes, if the quote is fake, which it appears to be, it should not be used otherwise it is slander.

    Two points...

    1. 'After that' is immediate exit advising that any new regime that behaves in the same way will meet the same end...
    2. There is a nagging issue today...Our military has been so damaged by under-funding, overuse, and political generals that perhaps we overestimate the ease of victory.

    anyways, war with Iran would be a disaster

    the Persians will not give up as easily as the Iraqis did.
