General Merrill "Tony" McPeak, Senator Barack Obama's military advisor and co-chair of his presidential campaign is a longtime anti-Israeli critic who has slammed Israel harshly during his career, according to an inquiry by conservative American media outlets.
In an interview with The Oregonion about five years ago, McPeak argued that the influence exerted by American Jews is responsible for the lack of progress in the Israeli-Palestinian peace process. According to the general the problem was New York and Miami.
"We have a large vote here in favor of Israel. And no politician wants to run against it," he said.
In the same interview, McPeak spoke of his personal experience with Israel.
"I've spent a lot of time in Israel, worked at one time very closely with the Israeli Air Force as a junior officer," he said, "but that's maybe the more cosmopolitan, liberal version of the Israeli population."
McPeak also charged that Jews and Christian Zionists manipulated American foreign policy in Iraq.
"Let's say that one of your abiding concerns is the security of Israel as opposed to a purely American self-interest, then it would make sense to build a dozen or so bases in Iraq," he said.
First the pastor, now this.. Obama is surrounded by anti-israel adviser.. Does that make him anti-israel? Will he be the first President of the USA able to resist the huge pressure of the pro israelis lobby in Washington?
hey gunslinger, since you think that Ron Paul was a nazi because he was supported by david duke and other white supremacist, do you believe that since Obama is surrounded by anti Israel people, he is really anti Israel? And can you still support him knowing that he is anti israel?
Yes we can.
