Gaffney's Latest Nonsensical Theory: Obama May Use Libya Precedent To Order Military Strike On Israel
March 21, 2011 10:59 am ET by Adam Shah

What do you get when you combine the wits of ridiculous conspiracy theorist Frank Gaffney and ridiculous conspiracy theorist Andrew Breitbart? You get a wild, obviously baseless theory that, using the precedent of the United Nations Security Council resolution to impose a no-fly zone over Libya, President Obama may one day order a military strike on Israel.

Writing on Andrew Breitbart's website Big Peace, Gaffney states: "There are many reasons to be worried about the bridge-leap the Obama Administration has just undertaken in its war with Muamar Gaddafi. How it will all end is just one of them. What I find particularly concerning is the prospect that what we might call the Qaddafi Precedent will be used in the not-to-distant future to justify and threaten the use of U.S. military forces against an American ally: Israel."

Yeah, OK guys...whatever glue y'all sniffing, you might want to change brands.

When people say they don't trust the media, we have these 2 bozos as Exhibit A & B to blame.
So he thinks we're going to attack an ally (Israel) because we're currently attacking an enemy (Libya) on request from the UN (which hasn't issued attack requests against Israel but has with Libya), all because he thinks the government has been infiltrated by Muslim Brotherhood members (alleged) put in by the last administration (Bush) even though our ally is not actively fighting the Palestinians (there was one retaliatory strike against Hamas this weekend, but no war- http://www.reuters.com/article/2011/03/22/us-palestinians-israel-gaza-idUSTRE72K7A620110322). BUT- because of something the MediaMatters folks were unable to ascertain, the US will attack Israel on the behest of the UN if Israel doesn't stop the settlements.

Oh the stupid; so obvious, and so much of it.
