Obama admin officials call Netanyahu "Aspergy"

Post Reply New Topic

The thing is it was in context to the situation in Ukraine, like the US Administration didn't care what the EU said/did. Then the Ukrainian Revolution occurred and Russia was involved and the US Administration suddenly needs the EU...

It is offensive regardless of how one feels about Netanyahu. If someone called Hitler 'aspergery', I'd be offended. So, I don't think even the most ardent critics of Natanyahu are giving this a pass because of being anti-Israel.

The Victoria Nuland call was them planning the post revolution government, "**** the EU" was dismissive of the EU and was said because they weren't in lockstep with US interests in Ukraine who in their words "invested 5 billion to achieve these and other goals". The protests, coup, and war in the country were all planned out in advance by the US. People talk about Russia's involvement in the conflict but the US has been just as culpable if not more.

As for Netanyahu being called "aspergery", I doesn't surprise me as autism seems to be thrown around more and more pejoratively these days. The sad thing is that it generally comes from pretty high minded liberal people that should know better, goes to show how they really think on the inside. Wonder how they really feel about other groups of Americans, I bet it wouldn't be pretty.

I respect your opinion, but don't see any point in discussing USA v Russia further. I think you have flawed sources and may be biased and you probably think the same of me. It likely is at least partially true of both. You are young and I hope you can look at it with a more objective eye, but I would not say you do that yet. But I am not young and having spent many years training to fight Russia, at times being trained to fight as a Russian, and having been on the line directly or in surrogate situations it is going to be difficult for me if not impossible to not have bias. I will say, even at the worst times I never hated or even disliked Russians. I was caught up in a contest of systems, of powers. But I did greatly dislike Russia's communist system of government. I was encouraged and hopeful after 1991 and thought we had put our greatest differences behind us, but it seems we have traveled full circle. The US has also committed errors and done wrong, but at least we still have the mechanism for change and the ability for dissenters to speak and organize. If you had anything to say I'll listen, but thought it best to discontinue the conversation in general concerning the two countries. Zombies, stuff and things is alright though.

You may have a different take on the conflict in Ukraine but I don't think I characterized it inaccurately in that post. In the context of the Nuland call, they were talking pretty explicitly about who they wanted and didn't want to be apart of the post-Yanukovych government and "**** the EU" was clearly dismissive in context of the EU not having the same interests as the US in Ukraine. I don't think it is really worth discussing whether or not the US has culpability in developing this crisis either, I think the answer is pretty obvious.

I decided to write the White House about the comment. Anyone can write a letter about it at WhiteHouse.gov.

Well, we now know about Netanyahu's reply to being called "aspergy."

Even for a person who missies subtlety the message is pretty unmistakable and confirmed by mainstream press http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/o ... CMP=twt_gu

You are on to something. Some suggestions of a pattern.

That state had far more forced sterilizations then any other state. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nazi_eugenics http://www.cnn.com/2012/03/15/health/ca ... lizations/

Opposite of what you would think.

Relax. On of Obbama's people called Bibbi "chicken s**t?

Well, ASAN has finally banned me from its Twitter and Facebook pages. It's official: ASAN are a bunch of politically correct chickenshits. If I ever see Ari, we're going to have a big fight.
