Netanyahu Ambition Over Patriotism?

[Je suis Omar]

Nita Lowey: His determination to endlessly defer decision on the Keystone XL Pipeline appears aimed at pressuring a U.S. ally, Canada, on its environmental policies. It is not his place to be pressuring a fellow democracy on its policies,

The last sentence was the real kicker. What planet is this lady from? Pressuring, attacking and overthrowing democracies, not to mention the USA's own brutal dictators, is exactly what the USA does, has been doing since the mid 1850s.

Why doesn't anyone ever address the obvious, the realities?

The emperor has never had any clothes and yet the vast majority of people, including many who consider themselves good upstanding Christian folk, just stare at Uncle Sam's dong and comment on what a nice crease he has in his trousers.

Maybe on another planet, but here on planet Earth nations strong and weak (and everything in between) have long pressured each other in various ways; some more obvious than others.

And if the US is somehow guilty of pressuring the Canadian government, then wasn't the Canadian government guilty of the same conduct in attempting to pressure Obama, and in some ways even try to circumvent him by sending feelers out to Congress to try to get the pipeline approved.

This strikes me as a "The US did it, so it must be baaaaaaaaaaad!"

Oh those rotten Americans and their lawless and cruel abuse of the poor long-suffering Barbary Pirates! When will there be justice?

That was my note to her. Her response didn't address Keystone.

There is a huge and obvious difference between interfering with Canada, a mature, stable democracy and interfering, say, in the Dominican Republic. To say otherwise is to be deliberately obtuse.
