While the administration's continually backed away from the U.S.’s formerly solid support of Israel, just how much weaker the relationship's become was made obvious by Secretary of State John Kerry on Monday.
 
According to the Daily Beast, Kerry “apologized for warning last week that the lack of a two-state solution in the Middle East could lead to Israel becoming an ‘apartheid state.’ Kerry’s remarks, made in a closed door meeting of the Trilateral Commission and first reported by The Daily Beast Sunday night, provoked strong reactions from across the political spectrum.”
 
Regarding “apartheid” the definition is: “a policy or system of segregation or discrimination on grounds of race.”
 
Some further research on the matter showed, that as usual, in pursuing its causes the administration is significantly altering the truth as demonstrated by Charles Krauthammer on “Special Report with Bret Baier,” who said the following:
 
“What the secretary of State of the United States has succeeded in doing, in what he thought was a private comment, is to echo and therefore to legitimize the worst of the libelous claims against the Jewish state. If there is one minority in the Middle East that enjoys the rule of law, and protection, and democracy it is Arabs in Israel. One out of every five Israelis is a Palestinian, overwhelming they are Muslim. There are Arabs in the government, in the Supreme Court, in all walks of life, in the universities.  There's actually affirmative action if you are a Palestinian in the universities. And to compare that in any way with the systematic discrimination against black Africans in South Africa is truly appalling and hurtful.”
 
Which makes one wonder why the vast majority of Jewish voters still adhere to the Democrat party that hasn’t truly supported them for about forty years and is now trying to alienate them altogether.
 
Then we come to the latest on Bubba Clinton’s wife.
 
The Washington Post reports that  “Boeing chief executive W. James McNearney faced pointed questions during the company's annual shareholder's meeting Monday about Boeing's decision to make a charitable donation to the Clinton Foundation in the same year that then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton had advocated on behalf of the company's sales in Russia.”
 
David Almasi, “a Boeing shareholder and a representative of the National Center for Public Policy Research, a conservative think tank whose members attend shareholder meetings to challenge corporate executives, asked: “Assuming that building schools in Haiti was a key goal of this Company's philanthropic programs in 2010, why was it so important to support this work specifically through the Clinton Foundation and not one of the many other reputable, independent charities then working in Haiti?”
 
Almasi then called the Boeing donation a “clear conflict of interest’ that seemed ‘reckless and unnecessary”
 
The amount contributed was “$900,000 to the Clinton family foundation to rebuild schools in Haiti in 2010, just months after Clinton had traveled to Russia, where she made what she called a ‘shameless pitch’ for a state-owned company to buy Boeing passenger jets… Boeing won the $3.7 billion Russian contract in June 2010.”
 
So, just like almost every other case regarding the Boss and his wife, there isn’t anything you can’t figure out about them if you take the simplest steps and just follow the money. Because that’s all that this pair has ever been about.
 
That’s it for today folks.
 
Adios
