Phantom weapons of mass destruction (WMDs) in Iraq have been replaced by a supposed existential nuclear threat from Iran,as if one or two crude nuclear weapons in Iran’s possession years from now (if at all) would somehow offset several hundred nuclear weapons in
Israel’s arsenal, or tens of thousands in our own.
Some of these people pushing Israel’s wars as American wars have dual US-Israeli citizenship. More speak openly of what they call “dual loyalty,” a presumed equivalence of allegiance between the country of their citizenship – the United States – and the country of
their hearts, which is Israel.
