Israel and its so-called "allies" are becoming more stupid and deluded by the day. If the US wasn't there to save its ass, chances are Netanyahu's diplomatic inanity would have got the country wiped out by now.
President Obama holding the U.S. - Israel relationship hostage is not, in any terms, a way to "save it's ass."
The only thing inane and ridiculous is the western world's willingness to trust a country run by extremist megalomaniacs.
I salute all of these former officials getting involved in supporting the national security interests of America, Israel, and the rest of the world (especially Joe Lieberman, a man I admire deeply, and Mary Landrieu and Evan Bayh, two great moderate leaders).
