You gotta be fucking kidding me..
Brad Sherman must resign right now. Even writers from the American Conservative are finding this all hard to believe.
In a conference call organized by The Israel Project, Rep. Brad Sherman (D-CA) told reporters that activists participating in the flotilla were aiding Hamas and therefore breaking US law.
“The Antiterrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 makes it absolutely illegal for any American to give food, money, school supplies, paper clips, concrete or weapons to Hamas or any of its officials,” Sherman said, as quoted at Jim Lobe's foreign policy blog. "And so I will be asking the Attorney General to prosecute any American involved in what was clearly an effort to give items of value to a terrorist organization.”
TalkingPointsMemo's M.J. Rosenberg, a frequent writer on Middle East issues, describes Sherman as "the most pro-Likud Democratic member of Congress," referring to Israel's most prominent conservative political party. "But this is crazy even for Sherman."
Sherman's declaration has taken heat from conservative commentators as well. Writing at The American Conservative, Kelley Vlahos declares that "the overall reaction to the abuse of our citizens has been strangely muted and flaccid — whether at the White House, Capitol Hill or in the corporate media."
Writes Vlahos: "Instead of demanding an accounting — you know, like Turkey is doing for its own citizens — we have elected leaders trying to put Americans on that flotilla in jail." Raw Story
The Clintons and their corrupt DLC have sold this nation out to the globalists and leaders of foreign nations to the point where the Democratic Party is actually an instrument of another sovereign state.
They have no fear of reprisal in the voting booth from the American people because of the fraudulent electronic voting machines of Diebold and ES&S.
We have an out of control foreign nation exerting undue influence on our leaders in congress and the White House which can only end badly for all parties concerned if we do not take action to remedy the situation.
The more pressure other nations put on Israel to investigate their illegal activities in international waters, the more pressure AIPAC puts on their puppets in the U.S. The only hope Israel has is to use their unwarranted influence in America to crush any and all forms of dissent in order to maintain at least some kind of hold on the growing international condemnation of their criminal behavior.
Each and every politician who steps forward to repeat the Israeli lies about what happened to our citizens and the humanitarian aid volunteers from around the world, must be held accountable by the American people as AIPAC and the rest of the Likud-Party apologists in America struggle desperately to keep control of the story.
This is now an all-out struggle for the sovereignty of the United States of America. Nothing less.
We either stand with the rest of the civilized world or we will suffer under the rule of the liars and criminals who are themselves merely pawns of a failed and belligerent foreign state.
Brad Sherman must be removed from office and his cowardly attack on the U.S. citizens aboard the Freedom Flotilla must stand as a lesson to all who have sworn an oath to the constitution of these United States and her people.
If we cannot stand together, republicans and democrats, greens and libertarians, if we cannot come together as a nation to oppose this kind of outright treason, then there is nothing left that holds us together as a people.
