In a speech Wednesday to the American Jewish Committee’s global forum in Washington, Clinton–the former secretary of state and potential 2016 Democratic frontrunner for the presidency–boasted of her record of support for Israel, saying she is proud of her part in keeping “our relationship rock-solid.”
She reaffirmed the United States’ commitment to Israel. “I have been proud to do my part to keep our relationship rock-solid over the years.”
It is not an accident that Clinton made the remarks before her Jewish audience, Mark Dankof, former US Senate candidate, told Press TV in a phone interview on Thursday.
The forum was held on “the 66th anniversary of the founding of the ‘state of Israel’. The 66th anniversary of all the ethnic cleansing of Palestine and the disposition of three-quarters of a million of Palestinians from their land with all the genocide and terror that has taken place since then,” he said.
Dankof stressed that Clinton addressed the forum in order to show her “obeisance” to Israel. “Once again what is important for every American politician – both in the Republican and the Democratic parties – is to show absolute obeisance to Israel.”
“Whether it’s Palestine, or Syria or Iran or Ukraine, the chief politicians of both of the major political parties in this country who want to run for president are going to have to bow before the Israeli throne.”
Dankof said there are a handful of politicians from both camps “who are owned by the Israeli interests, the Israeli lobby, the Jewish banking system and the Jewish news media in the United States, and these individuals will use the full faith and credit of the United States and the American military, etc to advance not American interests in the world, but Israeli interests in the world”.
“This is a relationship that is not in the interest of the American people. It is destroying their economy. It is destroying their international credibility at the same time that Israel is stealing them blind,” he noted.
