Did You Hear About North Korean Video? Probably Not, It's Not About Israel

What is an Israel Firster? He or she is someone who puts the interests of Greater Israel above those of the United States, often demonstrating that by a zealousness about all things Israel that he does not apply to his own country.
Take this North Korean video.It was posted by the North Korean propaganda ministry and it depicts the nuclear bombing of New York by North Korea.
Is this story a big deal? Nope. And that is because it is only about a North Korean attack on America and not an Iranian attack on Israel. No matter that the North Korean regime is utterly insane and possesses nuclear weapons.
No matter that the Iranian regime is cautious, rather than off its rocker, and does not possess nuclear weapons.
No matter that the North Korean video threatens the United States and not a foreign country. No matter…because the reaction to the North Korean story is a big yawn.
Who cares?Imagine if the Iranian government did put out a video like this targeting Israel. The entire Israel First community would go nuts. AIPAC, the ADL, the American Jewish Committee, the Jewish Council On Public Affairs. Schumer, Nadler, Commentary, Gillibrand, Jeff Goldberg, etc, etc, would be screaming to the heavens about the dire threat to our ally. New sanctions bill would be drafted by AIPAC and introduced by its cutouts. Krauthammer would tell us that it is 1942 and a second Holocaust looms.
Not in this case.
Because in this case the target is only New York and the would-be perpetrator is not a Muslim state.
So the lobby and its friends in Congress and the media don’t care. After all, it is just a cartoon. Except it would not be just a cartoon if it could be used to stoke war fever against Iran and Islamophobia or if it was about Tel Aviv and not New York.
Who said that Israel Firstism does not exist?

  1. You know what? North Korea has leash on it. It is against the economic interests of China to launch an insane attack. China controls any action of North Korea, That is not the case with Iran. They have no one who can hold them from doing anything. iran aims to be the dominant power in a Middle East without Israel. And just so you know, Israel is not the only concerned party with regard to iran. The Gulf States ar e just a concerned.
    Nice to know that you think Israel controls US foreign policy and media.

  2. The Saudi Royals and Persian Gulf emirates want to rule the region once the US goes down from its debt crisis. That is why they are against Iran. Iran has a wonderful future ahead of them and they will do no such thing as blow anything up with a nuclear bomb. They don’t even have one. Those Royals are the ones who have funded extremist Islam for decades to destabilize the societies there. Nobody over here should be defending them.
    The reason the US and Brit oligarchs are targeting and demonizing Iran is because Iran lies at the geographic center of Central Asia, which is the center of the world and all the minerals. That is why we only hear about Iran as the demon.
    The entire corporate/financial world in US and Britain need to control Central Asia now or face permanent decline. Everybody should see how they are little pawns in this game.
    We should all remember the dictum: Beware right-wing governments! They are known to kill! And, they do so for the corporate/financial interests.

  3. Israeli leaders and the Israel-Firsters around the world are suffering from acute case of an “Iranophobia”. Any dealing with Iran by a foreign government is enough to drive them crazy. For example, currently, the Jewish foreign minister of Argentina is under fire by Israel and Jewish media for signing a deal with Iranian foreign minister to let a third party investigate the bombing of Jewish center in Argentina.
    Hector Timmerman has been called “a self-hating Jew” and Argentina’s first woman president Cristina Kirchner have been blamed for selling her soul to the “devil” (Iran).
