Title:Wrong Signal

Both presidential candidates tried to outdo each other in sucking up to the Zionists in the Jewish State and to the fifth column Zionists here in the USA.

Of the thousands of questions that were submitted, the Jewish-controlled US media made sure that a question concerning the US/Iran/Israel nexus was put to the candidates. This obsession with Israel`s national interests is a regular feature of the political debates, going back to the primary campaigns.

What is missing from the question is whether the theoretical Iranian attack on Israel is an Iranian first-strike or self-defense, after an Israeli first-strike on Iran.

Israel is getting the wrong signal here, if the Israelis think that they can attack Iran and that the US will defend the Jewish State from a retaliatory strike.

The US needs to make it absolutely clear that if Israel strikes Iran in a first-strike attack, then Israel is on its own to face the Iranian, and possible Chinese and Russian counter-attacks.
