Seymour Hersh: Jewish Money Controls Presidential Candidates

AMY GOODMAN: That was Hillary Clinton laughing. Fifteen seconds, Seymour Hersh. Your response?

SEYMOUR HERSH: Money. A lot of the Jewish money from New York. Come on, let's not kid about it. A significant percentage of Jewish money, and many leading American Jews support the Israeli position that Iran is an existential threat. And I think it's as simple as that. When you're from New York and from New York City, you take the view of -- right now, when you're running a campaign, you follow that line. And there's no other explanation for it, because she's smart enough to know the downside.

Threats to Israel... Iraq - Yes Iran - Yes Syria - Yes Lebanon - Yes Egypt - No Jordan - No Saudi Arabia - No Oil is just a carrot or a bone. We fight Iraq and soon Iran for Israeli interests. The free hand that the U.S. gives Israel in its ethnic cleansing of Palestinians is what infuriates Al Qaeda, Iraq and Iran. Politicians will do whatever pleases Israel and its political arm in the U.S. AIPAC. Israel must change its policies and seek a fair peace with the Palestinians.

The title reflects exactly what Hersh said. A huge portion of Hillary's contributions come from wealthy Jewish New Yorkers. Those wealthy Jewish New Yorkers want us to invade Iran on behalf of Israel. Thus, those Jewish donors are directing American foreign policy to attack an innocent country that is incapable of threatening us.

Simple as that.

I like jews, but they are indeed money gluttons. Hardcore jews are the most stubborn of people too, they get what they want at ALL costs, literally. They're like "How much for this?" Salesman: "$10,000", Jews; "Wow, expensive, let me call my rabbi, he's got a American Express black card"
