Israel Shamir: There is no real choice for Israeli voters; the potential candidates for the prime minister’s office aren’t all that different… we should not worry too much about who will rule Israel – it’ll either be Netanyahu or one of his second-rate clones… Most politicians are Right or Far-Right –somewhere between the John Birch Society and the KKK – they won’t accept Palestinians even as junior partners in their government.

She had been targeted for removal by the Israel lobby (see video of her explaining the requirement for politicians to pledge loyalty to Israel)…
US security establishment: Israel 2nd most aggressive nation spying on the US… number one counter-intelligence threat in the Mideast… Israel sold US war plans to USSR… Mossad is a ‘second rate’ operation… ‘often gives the US faulty, misleading intelligence…’’
