Israel and U.S. are close to a deal on the biggest military aid package ever

Bernie lost the battle but won the war. out of 10 ideas the dem platform put 9 of bernies on the platform. that sheit has never happened before. most of those ideas will move on to actual legislation if dems get off their azzes and vote for dem legislators to push tha sheit into bills so hrc can sign um into law.

It is a win if they actually intend to govern and legislate those platform changes.

If they were just added to make progressives feel better so they will vote then not so much.

Her pick of a Big Bank/Wall Street loving VP is worrisome

Israel oppresses the Palestinians and they are aided by the US. We support them like we support the corrupt Saudi government. How is everybody happy when kids in Gaza are dying because of Israeli bombs or starving because Israel cut their water off

 

[Mask]

The US is and has been Israel's bitch

My question is why?

Bernie was coming hard like that

My question is why?

I wish I knew. It's the only country that you can just up and decide to go there to join their army and then come back here and it's all good. And you can't even question it publicly with out being called an anti-semite, the shit is really fucking mind boggling

Watch The Video Below!!






Benjamin “Netanyahu” Mileikowsky and the neo-cons want total war in the so-called middle east in order to create "Greater Israel"; they want a Clean Break

Yes Mileikowsky is his real name, Benjamin is POLISH!

“Netanyahu” is a stage name, just like a rapper choosing a name.

Benjamin's father a super Zionist changed the family name in the 1930's. He picked the 'stage name' "Netanyahu" because it was a name mentioned in the Hebrew Bible. The name נתניהו (Netanyahu) is mentioned a number of times in the OLD TESTAMENT Bible (in the Book of Jeremiah and in Chronicles)

What a slick hustle!

Always wonder what was the purpose of the connection.

Personally I think all that foreign aid cash should be stopped as long as we have homeless, hungry, undereducated and underemployed here.

Aid should be in food stuffs and medical supplies only, not cash so that the popualtion can sit on the beach.

The issue is Israels is far more than that because they also get billions in weapons and technology. Egypt is more like rent for allowing the US to use them for military reasons

And as long as Israel refuses to peace solutions , ceases their oppression and occupation and doesn't support a 2 state solution I damn sure wouldn't be increasing their aid...

Seems like they are being rewarded

Now I like your idea here.

 

[Mask]

Im see which one of these pricks of these fuckers shows the slightest sign if displeasure of this and I'm vote for them...

Was gonna do a coin flip. I'm give them a chance with this situation that could be address vs coin landing on their side

It is like Jonestown we pay for them to live good. And they are in Israel instead of blacks to make sure nothing is uncovered that would be hard to explain or hide from the masses. A lot of people say we are still on the plantation just illusions to keep you from wanting real freedom. Some say blacks are just here and white (devil) supremacy rules the world. Instead of us becoming ourselves we help white supremacy to maintain.
But everyone knows Obama was their puppet.

Still not a good look considering Clinton's Wall St/Banking ties.

It’s not hard to see why the Clintons’ might be feeling the Kaine: The former governor of Virginia and current member of the Senate Armed Services Committee boasts both executive and foreign-policy experience, speaks fluent Spanish, has ties to a swing state, and is a known quantity, having been vetted by Democratic nominees in cycles past. In a race where most pol ls show Clinton with a solid lead, picking a moderate, experienced white man makes some tacticalsense.

Still, Kaine has his drawbacks. His selection would prompt a 2017 special election to replace his seat. With Democrats consistently failing to turn out in off years, that could hand the GOP a precious vote in the upper chamber.

But the senator’s greatest liability may be his relationship to the party’s grassroots left. Kaine has alienated advocates for reproductive choice by promoting abstinence-focused education and laws making parental consent a prerequisite for abortion access. He’s frustrated environmentalists by supporting offshore drilling in the Atlantic and expanding construction of natural-gas terminals (that said, the rest of his environmental record is fairly strong and includes opposition to the Keystone XL pipeline and support for the Clean Power Plan). And he bucked the will of most Senate Democrats — including progressive leaders Elizabeth Warren and Bernie Sanders — by voting to give the White House fast-track authority to negotiate the Trans-Pacific Partnership. (The senator has not taken an official position on the final draft of thedeal).*

This week, Kaine provided left Democrats with two fresh reasons to see his selection as a repudiation of their agenda. On Monday, the senator added his name to two letters urging the federal government to scale back regulations on community and regional banks.

In a letter co-signed by 15 other Senate Democrats — and every Senate Republican — Kaine asked the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau to exempt community banks and credit unions from many of its regulatory requirements. In justifying these exemptions, the letter suggests that these regulations would make it more difficult for these small banks to continue “spurring economic growth” and that such rules are unnecessary, anyhow, since community banks “were not the primary cause of the financial crisis.”

This latter point is a bit of non sequitur. Just because a reckless activity was not the “primary cause” of the last global economic crisis doesn’t mean that activity isn’t worth preventing. According to the Intercept’s David Dayen,the rule Kaine proposes “could allow community banks and credit unions to sell high-risk mortgages or personal loans without the disclosure and ability to pay rules in place across the industry.” Such bad loans may not take down our financial system, but they could ruin the lives of the families that receive them.



In a second letter to the Federal Reserve, Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation, and the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency, Kaine and his co-signers argue that large regional banks like PNC, BB&T, and SunTrust should be exempt from two regulations meant to reduce their risk of collapse.

THE INTERCEPT HP
While Kaine stepped up to the plate for banking interests this week, he simultaneously snubbed consumer-advocacy groups. On Wednesday, Kaine was one of 13 Democratic senators to withhold his signature from a letter authored by Sherrod Brown, which called for strengthening new rules against abusive payday lenders. The senator’s office told the Huffington Post that he is “working on his own separate ‘Virginia-focused’” letter on payday lending.

Brotha's ain't going like this answer, but here it goes...
In return for the money Israel gets from the U.S., they collect intelligence on countries in the Middle East. Israel also spends 75% of that money on US goods and services. Without the US/Israel partnership the Middle East would be more unstable than it currently is.

Well then Israel is selling lies to support its legitimacy. The Middle East has been unstable and their intel isn't changing shit.
