TYT: Senator Pledges To Follow Leader Of A Foreign Nation
"During a meeting with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu in Jerusalem on Sunday, incoming chair of the Senate Foreign Appropriations Committee Lindsey Graham (R-SC) told the foreign leader Congress would “follow his lead” on a bill to reinforce sanctions on Iran.
“In January of next year, there will be a vote on the Kirk-Menendez bill, bipartisan sanction legislation that says, if Iran walks away from the table, sanctions will be reimposed,” Graham said. “If Iran cheats regarding any deal that we enter to the Iranians, sanctions will be reimposed.”
Graham and a variety of senators have been skeptical, to put it mildly, of the long-haul effort by President Barack Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry to broker a deal with Iran that reverses the country’s nuclear program in exchange for an easing of sanctions."* The Young Turks host Cenk Uygur breaks it down.

In their heads, Israel is very literally Jesus. Or at least so utterly essential to the Jesus mythos that it might as well be. And of course in their noggins, "All Kings Bow Before Him." They thus regard it as their duty as American Christians, to bend knee to Israel's leaders, no matter what, since if they don't, god will be unhappy with America.
Thankfully, this bizarre bit of apocalyptic theology is mostly found among Republicans. The democrats kiss that butt because the lobbies bending their ears work hard to conflate "Jews" and "Israel," and so Democrats imagine that they are one and the same, so mindless support of Israel is the best way to get the Jewish vote in the US. Which is patently false, since the Republicans offer even stronger mindless support, and don't have a strong base among American Jews.
Jesus and AIPAC make our foreign policy stupid
Traitor, pure and simple.
