Wasn't the Washington Post one of those newspapers that disseminated fabricated info during the run-up to Bush's Iraq invasion?

Yup.

WAPO and the NYT- spreading anti-American pro-Israel propaganda for over a quarter century.

The rush to attack the source is expected.

"The rush to attack the source is expected"

Schnitzkrieg, you seem to have confused the SOURCE of news with those who DISSEMINATE the news. I'm rather UN-surprised that you didn't catch that. The source is the US government and pro-Israel agents. The usual gang of idiots, which includes most of the MSM, just catapult the propaganda. Useful idiots such as yourself, who take everything at face value, simply take that one step further.

Whatever small potatoes generated by Iran is being eclipsed 10,000-fold by "ally"Israel. The ethnosupremacist, genocidal state of Israel is the number one meddler in American foreign affairs. That continued influence is the greatest threat America is currently facing.

You attacked WAPO not the source. Thank you for playing.

"You attacked WAPO not the source. Thank you for playing.

Then why did you state: "The rush to attack the source is expected."

Please don't tell me your that stupid without telling me you're that stupid.

Anyway, your fundamental lack of comprehension aside, the ethnosupremacist, genocidal state of Israel is the number one meddler in American foreign affairs. That continued influence is the greatest threat America is currently facing. If there wasn't that Zionist turd state infesting America with its psychopathic worldview, Iran would simply be a Shia version of Pakistan- just another cold ally against Russian influence in southwestern Asia.

I can't believe JeffJ isn't defending Iran's First Amendment rights to spend foreign money to change American political opinion.

Must be busy doing yardwork, or surely he would set the record straight.
