Flynn’s plea on Russian influence reveals… Israel’s influence!

Is Russiagate actually Israelgate? The media’s misdirection in blaming the Russians for influence peddling ignores Israel’s central role in Flynn’s fall. An article by Phil Weiss reports on the Israeli connection and a report by Philip Girald describes Jared Kushner’s apparent role as an Israeli government agent of influence…
