    Tulsi and the Fox guy seem to think the US has armed Al Quaeda because of “an addiction to regime change”.

    No. Its not an ‘addiction to regime change.’ That kind of explanation tells us nothing. My own guess based on what i’ve read is –ISRAEL wants Syria weakened. Israel wants chaos in Syria. So as to weaken Syria. So as to weaken Iran. (Iran has big links to Assad and Syria).

    They dont even mention Israel in this vid.

    I’m not saying Israel runs the US corporotacracy. But i am saying they are a powerful, powerful influence.

    I think it’s both, WV.

    I think the narrow focus of American foreign policy is that we have to be bestest buddies or we kill the guy in charge and find one who’ll be our bestest, enabling, codependent buddy.

    I mean one can’t overthrow as many democratically elected governments as ours has and truly believe in democracy.

    And, yes, the Israeli influence is very hard to overstate.

    Sports is the crucible of human virtue. The distillate remains are human vice.

    Well the reason i dont like the “its because we are addicted to regime change” is because that does not tell joe and jane citizen WHY the CIA/deep-state wants regime change. They want pro-corporate partners/puppets. They dont want any successful examples of left-leaning-systems out there. Tulsi (god bless her) doesnt really get into the WHY of regime-change. Just saying “its an addiction” doesnt give the peepulz any info.

    I give her credit for premasticating the complex issues for a constituency that really struggles with so much depth.

    Do I think she gets it that Israel is a huge driver of these things and the added complexity of the corporate interests?

    Yes. And I think that she’s simply playing it smart to not overplay Israel’s influence. Seems one becomes an anti-Semite if they dare to mention that rock throwing shouldn’t illicit a death sentence or that occupation is bad no matter who does it. I’m certain that her time deployed to Afghanistan as well as her recent trip to Syria gave her tremendous insight and evidence for the disparity between our foreign policy and reality.
