Energy dependence & health of the economy absolutely impacts national security.

Whilst listening to John Batchelor (He has excellent guests) last night I was
surprise about the growing Israeli Chinese relation.
Here is an update on that from Reuters.

Israel is already kissy-face with Russia in recognition of the fact that they make up 15% of the Israeli population. Netanyahu even stated last month that he has no interest in expressing an opinion on the Crimea or Ukraine in recognition of his relationship with Russia.

What were you expecting them to do? Just give in to the notion that God appointed America to be "Number 1" and leave it at that. like good little Commies?

Remember, they got the money to do all of this FROM US. Those are the jobs of millions of Americans, WE SENT THEM. Under the premise that punitive import taxes and tariffs are not in the spirit of free market Capitalism.......mostly at the behest of large corporations and American politicians insisting that the American consumer deserves lower prices.

We dropped this turd, now we must reap the whirlwind of it's stench.

This is why I'm caught in a paradox. I respect and admire the Jewish people. But, have had quite enough of Israels bullshit.
