I had just got done reading the same article and it left me scratching my head over one of Ron Dermer's statements in this article:
"...He said he never meant to slight the White House by keeping the confidence of the House speaker, who had suggested the invitation..."
It compelled me to go searching for one of the articles I read a day or two ago which had very interesting statement indeed, considering Derner's statement above. I did locate the article, written by Rick Ungar and posted on Forbes.com dated 1/25/15:
"..the plan to have the Israeli Prime Minister speak to Congress, without first discussing with the White House, was the brainchild of Israeli Ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer who has, for weeks now, been endorsing the re-election of Bibi Netanyahu on American television programs despite explicit Israeli Civil Service regulations prohibiting him from doing so."
What a snake this guy is. According to the Forbes article, he was the one poking at the bee's nest and who is now all too happy to let Boehner take the stings by making us think this was all the Orange Dude's idea.
On the other hand, the Orange Dude can't do anything but sit there and take it, since to admit he took the bait from Dermer would prove once and for all what a tool he is for the Zionists and therefore a clear and present danger to U.S. security.
This statement from the NYT article nails it, Hes (Dermer's) a political operative, hes not really an ambassador, said Daniel C. Kurtzer, a former United States ambassador to Israel."
There is no question in my mind that Dermer should be declared persona non grata and removed from this country pronto. In addition, Boehner should step down immediately as his is clearly unfit and a threat to U.S. diplomacy and security.
This subterfuge should be headline news. The citizens of this country need to take notice of the entities who are pulling the strings in our government and the names of everyone who are their puppets, both willing and unwilling (compromised politicians). Time to clean up the cesspool and take control of our own government again.
