Arms Control Law

It is quite remarkable, isn’t it?
It’s not just that Gillerman has no sense of irony.
It’s not just that Gillerman advocates that North Korea be wiped off the map.
It’s also his explicitly-stated reason for wanting North Korea to be nuked down to bedrock that astonishes.
Because he doesn’t hide his reasoning i.e. North Korea needs to be nuked so that the Iranians know not to f**k around with Israel, otherwise You’re Next, Mother-F**ker.
The arrogance is breathtaking, matched only by the cowardly silence of those who just sat there while this thoroughly stupid and utterly venal man spout his sociopathic nonsense.
Honestly, he’s advocating genocide against a country that is absolutely no threat to Israel, and doing so merely because he wants to put the frighteners on another country that He Does Not Like.
Honestly, I beginning to think that 2013 will go down as the year that Israel Jumped The Shark.
His fund, Markstone Capital, has settled against some misconduct charges, correct?

Anyone have the details?
Good on ya’ for igniting a discussion on this incredible public demonstration of who the most frightening rogue nuclear state in the world is. It got pretty much buried in the Boston bombing flak.
The other news buried by the Boston bombs is Obama’s announcement that USG is providing $10bn worth of offensive military gear to Israel, including Boeing KC-135 in-flight refueling planes, which will extend the Israeli nuclear menace virtually around the world. [Geeks, please correct that if it’s an exaggeration.]
Note how the FOX bimbo nods and smiles throughout Gillerman’s whole frightening diatribe. Well, here’s a bimbo that neither nodded nor smiled, but went right off on Gillerman. Moi! I attribute the coarse language to watching too much Jon Stewart.

You can never watch too much Stewart. That guy is a national treasure. Its one of my life’s goals to be a guest on the show. I tried with my 2011 book, but they said it wasn’t for them. That’s really the only reason I write books – to try and get on the Daily Show 🙂
Wait until he gets back, Dan. Oliver is OK, but he just doesn’t have the unerring timing Stewart has. There is a comedian’s pause that you must have to be born with. Stewart, Seinfeld, Jack Benny, Johnny Carson. Perfect timing, nanosecond associations.
You might try getting an anchor on a MSM news program. Williams and Brokaw seem to get on Stewart’s show quite a bit.
Don’t give up.
I completely agree about Stewart. His timing and delivery are impeccable. I love Oliver’s correspondent reports, but you’re right that he doesn’t come close to Stewart as host. The writing is still good, and I’m a loyal guy, so I’ll stick it out till Jonny comes back.
By the way, did you see this!?!?!?!?:

He’s even funny in Arabic!
Yes, sir, he’s even funny in Arabic. He’s the Will Rogers of our time, times 50.
But this is deadly serious stuff he’s doing over there, especially with the Jun30 rally coming up, which could go anywhere.
A Jew in Egypt spoofing Morsi on the eve of more mass riots while making a documentary about the way the Brotherhood crushes dissent.
What could possibly go wrong?
