      Go after Iraq? And these are supposed to be American "intellectuals"? Isn't it rather a group of Jews who prioritize Israel over America that has got us in this terrible situation? And they joke about it in Washington. What about the fact that Rahm Emanuel is an Israeli citizen? Should he really be privy to what goes on in the White House? No wonder this country has gone to the dogs. These morons are an insult to the simplest American folk.
