If Hillary really did have a rack like the one in the cartoon, she would already be President.

gerard,
  We finally see something similarly, up to your last line.  There are people in the US who understand the US gov’t as military/empire/supplier of weapons to the world (one of the US’ main exports now).  Way back when, Pres Eisenhower, in his farewell speech, said, Beware the “military industrial complex”.  I think the people of the US are ahead of the gov’t in terms of many policies: people want peace and jobs not war and war spending.

Too bad this cartoon doesn’t make the front page of every newspaper in the U.S. 
A very sad, but true comic comment.

Probably you can’t cartoon the problem behind the problem here.  If the US stopped arms to Israel, how many US jobs would be lost? How many weapons makers would have to retool to something more humane?

First there has to be the intention to get off the national addiction to military power and kick the habit of getting rich off of killing people.

Then the plan for how to do it as skilfully as possible so that the time, effort and money went into jobs for keeping people alive and well.

Nobody’s even thinking seriously about it yet.

IMHO, the best way to handle chief Zionist Bibi is for Obama to let him know whose dick really is the biggest. LOL

Word.

Except she’ll probably be pushing her way to the front of the AIPAC line to grovel in front of the Israeli throne like that nauseating Chuck Schumer was debasing himself in front of the C-Span cameras yesterday.

  I am surprised the Zionists haven’t consulted their net-buddy, “Megaphone” to get their marching orders, talking points and spam sites to whine about the anti-semites.
