That's like saying that anybody who criticized Nazi Germany was "against the Arian Race".
In fact, that's exactly what the Nazis used to say.
Funny how so many of the things Zionists say and do are a lot like the things Nazis said and did...
Except that’s not what I’m saying.
Two things can be true at the same time:
There is so much that one could criticize Israel over that I won’t even pretend to be able to list it all. But this government counterterrorism expert blaming Israel for “manufacturing” a conflict that his own government had the greater hand in creating is either stupid or disingenuous. Either way it shows where his heart lies.
Israel has been trying that America attacks Iran for 40 years, including such ridiculous things like some years ago Netanyahu showing a cartoon image of a lit bomb to US Congressmen whilst he claimed that Iran was just about to go nuclear.
Even for an outsider, in light of the relentless push for decades from Israel to make happen what has happenned and their participation in this attack, it's an entirelly valid theory to think that Israel got what it has loudly demanded from America for decades, especially in light of the level of intelectual capacity the current POTUS and his Administration have displayed.
More, the guy who said it is an insider to the halls of power in the US, and even better, to top level military decision-making there: he's way more qualified than you or me to know what the fuck is going on with this and yet here you stand saying that the only valid explanation for what he said is him hating all Jews, not only implying that he knows shit about what is in fact part of his job but also outright calling him a Racist for giving his expert opinion on something he was involved in.
Given your persistence in pushing the idea that a US administration insider saying that Israel has succeeded in what they have been trying to make happen for decades is "stupid", "disingenuous" and even "anti-semitic", it looks to me like the most logic explanation is that the Racist (in assuming not only that a non-Jew who makes a critical point about Israel on something that person would - thanks to his position in this Administration - be infinitelly more well informed than you, must be "against Jews as a People", but that Israel represents the Jewish People), Disingenious and possibly even Stupid one in this, is you.
