Retired Adm. James A. Lyons was commander in chief of the U.S.
Pacific Fleet and senior U.S. military representative to the United Nations and just wrote in Washington Times , “The message that President Obama should then send to Russia’s President Putin is that if you don’t withdraw your troops from the Ukraine within a specified time frame, we will take down President Bashar Assad and his forces in Syria.” Does that amount to trading Ukraine for Syria. Would Russia go for it? Would the US go for it? Certainly Israel would go for it. Gelb says that the obvious solution is that “Russia proclaims and Ukraine accepts greater autonomy for Crimea within a still united Ukraine.” Seems to me that Russia is calling the shots and not Gelb.

Russians, Americans, Europeans, and Ukrainians plunge on toward the all-time foreign policy record for venality, lying, hypocrisy and self-destructive maneuvers.

Top U.S. officials contribute with their daily evocation of saintly principles that the United States itself has often defied.

Klein, who garnered a landslide 93% of the vote of ZOA delegates from around the country. This reflected a clear mandate for Mort Klein’s leadership of the ZOA on behalf of Israel and the Jewish people and an overwhelming repudiation of his opponent’s false and outrageous allegations. In his own speech to the Convention, Mr. Klein answered virtually all of his opponent’s ludicrous allegations head-on. Delegates flew into Philadelphia from Los Angeles, San Diego, San Francisco, New York, Detroit, Cleveland, Washington D.C., as well as from Florida, Georgia, New Jersey, Virginia, Maryland and other states to participate in the vote and the Convention deliberations.
