US Amb Barrack Denies Israel is a Democracy

Peloni:  It is one thing to retreat from forcing democratic ideals upon foreign nations and quite another to champion totalitarianism as virtue over an allied democratic nation.  While Barrack would probably like us to ignore the relevance of his significant business connections to Qatar raised as well as his Lebanese heritage recalled to mind, it is this very background which might afford us a window into the psyche of the man most responsible for pretending that Jolani is not a terrorist in a suit, but a Syrian partner in peace, even as this suited terrorist describes both the US and Israel as terrorists.
