For the record, I don’t think this is one of the many “Jewish Lobby” conspiracy theories that Chas Freeman has fed to Iranian media. And I’m reasonably sure I’m right about that too:
The Israeli government has allegedly used its influence in American politics to strengthen the rumors about US President Barack Obama’s birthplace. On Monday, well-known investigative journalist Wayne Madsen said Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu’s entrenched alliance with the America-Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), various neoconservative groups and fundamentalist Christian organizations had made it “very easy for him to bring this whole canard back” about allegations that Obama has been born in Kenya rather than the United States…
The claimants to the contrary, called ‘birthers’, are lead by California attorney Orly Taitz who has filed in the federal court Kenyan papers, which certify that Obama is Kenyan-born. The Washington-based journalist said that “just after this fake birth certificate came out, she [Taitz] pops up in Tel Aviv two days later.” “She is originally from Moldova, very closely tied to Likud, Netanyahu and also Foreign Minister (Avigdor Lieberman) who is also a native of Moldova,” he told Russia Today.
Madsen is also the guy who blew the lid off the secret Jewish plot to colonize Iraq. Which was a real bummer, because we were this close. Regardless, I’m sure that this is something Obama can clear up when he talks with the oh-so-rational state actors behind Iran’s oh-so-rational state media.
What do you think the odds are that this gets picked up by Sullivan? I’m thinking: pretty decent:
It’s jawdropping that Sullivan would claim that “neocons” and “AIPAC” would want the revolution to fail. One American clearly seeks the failure of the revolution, but that’s his own fantasy-boyfriend Barack Obama. And Sullivan can’t say that his would-be boyfriend is in the wrong, so he puts Barack Obama’s words into the mouths of his enemies — “neocons” (by which he means Jews) and AIPAC (by which he means Jews).
How about Roger Cohen? Ditto.
