Hagel to be nominated on Monday?
Reports from a number of sources indicate that key members of the American Jewish community have been informed by the White House that President Hussein Obama intends on Monday to nominate anti-Semite Chuck Hagel to be US Secretary of Defense. However, in a Saturday night interview with Jewish talk show host Zev Brenner, Malcolm Hoenlein, Executive Vice President of the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations, an umbrella group that represents 50 of America’s largest Jewish organizations, and one of the people most likely to be called, said he had not been called and that he was not aware of anyone else that had been. Nevertheless, Hoenlein expects the nomination to move ahead.
Let's go to the videotape to hear the interview. More after the interview.
Note the swipe at Tom Friedman....Do you think the White House encouraged Friedman to write that column for Hagel?
If Hagel is going to be defeated, it looks like it's going to be up to the bloggers again.

Please raise your hand if you have ANY surprise at this? The pro-Israel Dems have brought up the idea that this guy is a Wald/Mearsheimer "Israel Lobby" bigot, but actually Hagel said "Jewish Lobby". The US Jews are Leftist first, unto suicide. The question is whether the FSU Israelis, combined with the run of the mill Leftist Socialists are also suicidal... I follow a Leftist East Coast (US) raised journo who lives in Israel now and simply cannot bring themself to address a single issue with critical thinking.... it is always the Alinsky tactic (which seems to have become a neural pathway to these people) to slime and mock the immediate speaking/writing individual person, rather than have a cogent thought about the actual issues or even their own safety or their children's future. Hagel signals turning the corner from just "anti-Israel" policies to "anti-Jewish" policies, with deletion of Israel in the works.
