Bouvard on Greenwald's Hyperbolic Israel Rhetoric

By Dennis Bouvard

Plain text

Of course Glenn Greenwald has always been completely anti-Israel and therefore believed pro-Israel forces exercised "undue" power in the US but has he always explicitly referred to the US as Israel's "colony" and Netanyahu as the president's "boss" like he's doing now. This stuff

is fine for internet bottom feeders but Greenwald still does want to be taken seriously as a journalist, doesn't he? Or are more journalists speaking in this hyperbolic way as if describing things literally? Is he just extremely frustrated because they thought they had Israel on

the run but things, in fact, seemed to have to turned out fairly well--and, if the Islamic Republic falls, extremely well--for Israel. If it is just lashing out that's a good sign, and I hope for more invitations to Mar-a-Lago for the Netanyahus. Maybe they're on the run.

@Imperius__13 Yes, there's quite a bit off about him. Even that episode was in part some attempt to accuse Israel of trying to blackmail him.
