Two Losers for America, II

Regarding Sheldon Adelson, Haim Saban et al., Pat Buchanan writes, “This billionaires boys club wants to buy U.S. foreign policy and a U.S. war on Iran. ”

Pat adds that “the propagandists” at Foundation for Defense of Democracies are paid to produce that war (funded by the boys club). FDD is a strident Washington-based neoconservative think tank that Pat labels a “War Party” think tank.

Pat notes that research from Salon shows that in just 2011 alone FDD took in $19 million from five rabidly pro-Israel givers. Mr. Buchanan notes that Adelson and Haim plan to dump hundreds of millions of dollars into the 2016 presidential campaign.

Pat writes:

What does the pair want from our next president? According to the Washington Post’s Phil Rucker and Tom Hamburger, action on Iran:

“Saban said that fundamentalist Iranians represent a real threat. If necessary to defend Israel, and as a last resort, he added, ‘I would bomb the living daylights out of the sons of bitches.’”

Echoed the 81-year-old Adelson, “I would not just talk. I would take action.”

Last year, at Yeshiva University, Adelson, who pumped $150 million into the 2012 campaign, said the U.S. should fire a nuclear missile into the Iranian desert as a warning to end their nuclear program, or the next atom bomb would be dropped on Teheran.
