Murdoch Goes Balmy

Murdoch gets an award from The American Jewish Committee and proceeds to butter them up with nonsensical babble:

In the west, we are used to thinking that Israel cannot survive without the help of Europe and the United States. Tonight I say to you: Maybe we should start wondering whether we in Europe and the United States can survive if we allow the terrorists to succeed in Israel.

Let that sink in boys and girls... Murdock says that Europe and the United States can fail if Israel goes the way of the dodo.

Utter nonsense.

If Israel vanished tomorrow, Europe and the United states would not collapse under some redirected terrorist threat as Murdoch suggests. The most probable result would be that the Arabs would feel justified by regaining their lost lands and would - as before this UN created Israel - once again continue to let the infidels go their own way to heaven or hell.

Murdoch's speech to the American Jewish Committee was full of Israeli supporting but flawed arguments. Let the Jews enjoy the moment, but don't you fall for the blather.

Israel would indeed collapse without our unending and limitless support. On the brighter side, such a collapse would see this "war on terror" fade away like mist in the morning sun.

Murdoch's babble was no doubt generated by his desire to have rich Zionists continue to invest in his operations. Like all those with power and wealth, everything he says - or does - is for his own personal self-interest.

Brutal, but true.
