Theres been a lot of Israel news in the primary process lately, and Im going to play catchup on it here. First, this just in. Hillary Clinton is going to have a fundraiser in Tel Aviv. Her Jewish outreach director will hold it. Remember that Clinton has pledged Haim Saban to fight the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) movement aimed at Israel, so shes putting her moneyraising where her mouth is. Clinton has also been raising a ton of pro-Israel money in L.A. Haim and Cheryl Saban have just kicked in another $2 million on top of $5 million they gave last year to her SuperPac, Priorities USA Action. Yahoo: All these men (Clooney excepted) are ardent Zionists. Katzenberg has said that Israel is a jewel. Its this amazing beautiful gem that exists in a place where there are not a lot of gems. Steven Spielberg and Jeffrey Katzenberg have each given $1 million to Priorities, and Katzenberg has been lining up donors to the group
. Saban, Katzenberg and Spielberg were all co-hosts of a fundraiser featuring Hillary Clinton at the home of George Clooney on Saturday. The big giving is a reminder that Jewish weight in our politics, as the Forwards JJ Goldberg said last weekend, is chiefly through the checkbook and not at the polls, and that Bernie Sanders may reduce that weight through his populist model of raising money from individuals at $27 a pop on average.... One last thing. Zionist speechwriters. My old boss Jared Kushner, owner of the New York Observer, wrote the speech that Trump delivered by Teleprompter to AIPAC last month in which Trump said President Obama was the worst thing ever to happen to Israel and it turns out that Kushner consulted with Israeli ambassador Ron Dermer to do so the same Ron Dermer who lobbied on Capitol Hill against the Iran deal and managed to keep his diplomatic credentials! (The Observers national political reporter, Ross Barkan, quit the newspaper because of the newspapers coziness with the Trump campaign. It must have cramped his style.) Israeli Ambassador to Washington Ron Dermer briefed Donald Trumps son-in-law Jared Kushner on Israels diplomatic and security issues days before Trump delivered a speech written by Kushner to the AIPAC conference last month, Haaretz reported on Sunday
Haaretz said Trumps AIPAC speech sounded in part like it was taken verbatim from Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahus talking point sheet thanks to this assistance. Kushner is in a fine new American tradition. Gary Ginsberg, who is an executive at Time Warner, wrote several speeches for Benjamin Netanyahu of all people in recent years - See more at: mondoweiss.ne...h.OTmLlZxA.dpuf Edited by USC Zharkov...
