    A good piece, Richard. Amazing how blind Ayalon is to the fact that he just made an ass of Israel (again). The incredible rudeness displayed by him towards this Congressional delegation was more than chutzpah, it was just plain dumb. He blew an opportunity for honest dialogue, which seems to have become quite a consistent pattern of behavior on the part of the Israeli government. It’s actually very funny considering how much bending over the American politicians do for Israel and how much time Israel lobbyists spend in the offices of our Congressmen.

    I hope Ayalon and Israel keep up the bad work. Perhaps, then, fewer influence leaders and decisions makers will go to Israel.
    I further hope that American leaders will start journeying to Iran in order to get first-hand information and impressions about Iran, as an antidote to the propaganda that communicated by MSM and even the most allegedly-liberal think tanks.

      That’s what I said in another thread. I’d be happy if they all stopped going to Israel; maybe the money spigot could be shut off, and AIPAC would go out of business. Perhaps that’s what it will take for the Palestinian people to shake off their occupiers for good.
