No question that the best days of the USA are behind her - what Israel must do

Israel must wash her hands of depending upon the goodwill of the USA, Canada and the West. And see the US as a business client and seller of arms.

The USA is financially broke 5x over and many are morally broke. The only way the USA can get out of this financial hole that Washington and Wall Street have dug for themsleves is to sell Exxon and Oregon to China and place the photo of Mao on its $100 bill for a Chinese 500 billion bailout.

The rest of the world will bowdown to the Arabs to bail them out.

Too many Americans think that it is 1955 and they set the tone. Well Elvis has left the building and why would Batman protect Wall Street brokers from the Joker? I think that Batman is on the wrong side.

Americans have succumbed to its emotions and empty hopes. Americans have been irresponsible with their financial and their dietary regimes. Actually they have no financial nor dietary regimes. They want it and they want it now.

The time that it has taken you to read this, the US debt has increased by $ 100,000.

Israel must seek very close ties with India and be a client of its Sukhois and work together financially and militarily. The intelligentisia of the USA is pragmatic; ie, no ideals and willing to sell out Israel, India and maybe Taiwan if it will add value to their 401(k).

And CNN, reuters, AP and NYT and LATimes will support them, and cover for them.

But maybe I am being ignorant and foolish. Maybe Malley, Emmanuel and Brzenski will be nice to Israel and forget about all the soddie $$$ they can pocket in their off shore accounts.

Hey I am still pro American but I am a realist.
