MTG suggests link between JFK's assassination and opposition to Israel's 'nuclear program'

[highplainsdem]

Source: Independent

Firebrand Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene sparked renewed controversy Tuesday after insinuating that former President John F. Kennedy was assassinated because he opposed Israel’s nuclear ambitions.

“There was once a great President that the American people loved. He opposed Israel’s nuclear program. And then he was assassinated,” the MAGA Georgia congresswoman posted on X, defending her criticism of President Donald Trump’s Iran nuclear sites strike.

Greene made her claims in response to commentator Mark Levin, who called her “stupid” on X, claiming she keeps “banging your head against the wall.”

“I will do my best to pray for you. But I will be watchful now,” Greene wrote before shifting to the Kennedy theory. “I am for peace. I oppose war, including wars Israel wages. Should I feel that my life is in danger now too? What about President Trump who strongly rebuked Israel this morning for continuing to attack Iran?”

MTG, God are you stupid. And you keep banging your head against the wall. Thankfully, POTUS ignored you and hit the Iranian nuclear sites. You seem very upset about it. I’m not going away. You’re on my radar.

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene🇺🇸
@RepMTG

This is extremely sick and disturbing. Please read to the end.

Mark, you have the exact same tone and language that the psychopaths use that send me death threats every single day.

You should be fired from Fox News. And shame on Fox if they condone this.

Let me introduce you to my friend Jesus.

He says, “Blessed are the peacemakers, for they will be called the children of God.”

Jesus is the messiah. Jesus is the one and only son of God.

Jesus was put to death on a Roman cross and died as a one time sacrifice for our sins. Jesus is the lamb of God. You can read about Jesus in Isaiah 53:5-12.

Jesus will return one day and the those that did not recognize him will mourn.

He will bring everlasting peace to all the Earth and his kingdom will have no end.

Jesus also says, “pray for your enemies.”

I will do my best to pray for you.

But I will be watchful now.

There was once a great President that the American people loved. He opposed Israel’s nuclear program. And then he was assassinated.

I am for peace.

I oppose war including wars Israel wages.

Should I feel that my life is in danger now too?

What about President Trump who strongly rebuked Israel this morning for continuing to attack Iran?

2. MTG is insane. She needs to stop her drug use.

[angrychair]

3. So odd

What is it with the Republican fixation on JFK? I mean it's a pervasive meme with them. Do they realize he was a Democrat? Its a real thing. Just not sure why.

30. Or air.

[hlthe2b]

5. So, she thinks Israel took out JFK? She will say anything...

[lostincalifornia]

6. Isn't she the one who pushed the "Jewish space lasers"? She is deranged.

[tanyev]

7. Yeah, that's what's going on, Marge.

Your life is in danger because you’re opposed to Israel’s nuclear ambitions. You’d better resign your House seat NOW and lay low for the rest of your life. Better safe than sorry! Go!

[John1956PA]

8. If Mark Levin is the person who hosts . . .

. . . "Life, Liberty and Levin" on Faux, he was a vociferous 2020 election denier who helped stir up J6. However, for all I know, he is not that Faux host.

[the nelm]

32. Levin is as nutty as MTG, just a different flavor of nutty...n/t

[Walleye]

9. Marge, what did your friend Jesus say about welcoming strangers and feeding the hungry

Blessed on the meek, Marge

14. PLEASE STOP with the sexist slur words to describe her. There are plenty

of others that are not misogynist derogations.

[Hekate]

20. Well-spotted

[wyn borkins]

16. Hello Canada Kid

I find your titling offensive, and herewith request that you remove (OR) exchange "that" (C)-word for something a bit more mild; please 'think of the children'...and 'thank you for your support in this matter'.

[Hekate]

26. I see his post is still here

[wyn borkins]

28. Yes, and I see his post is still here as well (?) (n/t)

[niyad]

39. See post 38.

[niyad]

38. Sadly, it seems that sexism and misogyny are still acceptable here, no

matter how many instances we call out.

[Hekate]

41. Right

[TheRickles]

12. I never agree with her, but this book about her claim is extremely well documented:

[LudwigPastorius]

19. Guyenot also claims that Mossad was behind 9/11.

The guy certainly seems fixated on proving that Jews are behind our national tragedies.

[Hekate]

22. That fixation alone eliminates him from having his opinions taken seriously. Is he also onto the Rothschilds?

[LudwigPastorius]

23. Honestly, I haven't been able to stomach enough of his writing to know his opinion of the Rothschilds.

But, I wouldn't doubt it.

[Behind the Aegis]

43. You should see some of his other titles.

This sums up his "facts":



Becoming more and more common on BOTH sides of the political fence...just more are further out to pasture.

[Martin68]

13. Most likely it was conservatives who wanted to escalate in Vietnam and allow Israel to develop nuclear weapons.

[AllaN01Bear]

15. proof and befre i forget, snork

plays a few riffs of the main theme from the old tv show the twilight zone. playing with jewish space lasers again are we?

[Nigrum Cattus]

17. Here is the book that explains JFK's killing, factually

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/276333.Mortal_Error

[niyad]

36. Thank you for that information. I just read some of the reviews, very

interesting indeed.

When I first learned that the warren commission report was to be sealed for fifty years, my very first thought was, "plenty of time to tamper and destroy evidence", includung the inconsistenies about the body and the autopsy, etc. Too bad we don't have a functioning time machine.

[moniss]

18. The problem with her and so many other MAGA/GQP people is

they take something that was a point of huge contention between Kennedy and Ben-Gurion and they extrapolate wildly from there. Kennedy did push hard behind the scenes for inspections and restraint in the Israeli nuclear program. Ben-Gurion and others lied about the program being only for peaceful purposes and running a desalinization project etc. But eventually his successors gave in to some less stringent program of inspections but only with a good amount of advance notice.

The French and British had been clandestinely helping the Israeli government up to a point from early on and there were other countries around the world who were involved in supporting the Israeli nuclear program. Norway was one. The French and the British were pretty well understood to be doing this to continue jockeying for influence of one over the other since both had lost their "Mandates" and the French and British influences in North Africa and Egypt in particular were very tenuous.

There is of course much more to the story but trying to lean on the idea that Ben-Gurion would have been "in on" or "directed" the killing of JFK is a stretch into fantasy in my opinion. That doesn't mean that terrorists like Begin were above horrendous killings of police and British officials in Palestine but like the other Israeli terrorists of that time I don't think he had the skills or depth of intellect to pull off something like that.

Basically it is felt that Israel had crude nuclear weapons devices by 1967 and continued to improve from there. More concerning but never really talked about in the media etc. is that Israel continued to develop missile systems and now has missiles that can hit all around the world. The reason that is concerning is that countries and people should be asking themselves "They say their existence is threatened by their neighbors in the region. OK because of violent strikes against you we can understand arming yourself against your neighbors. So why do you need missiles that can hit countries half way around the world from you that you simply have policy disagreements with?" How should countries feel is meant toward the countries around the world by the development of such an expanded reach? What is the message? Those are completely legitimate concerns because it is not rational to think that any nation invests the huge money this takes just for nothing.

"In January 2008, Israel carried out the successful test launch of a long-range, ballistic missile capable of carrying a nuclear warhead from the reported launch site at the Palmachim Airbase south of Tel Aviv.[165] Israeli radio identified the missile as a Jericho III and the Hebrew YNet news Web site quoted unnamed defense officials as saying the test had been "dramatic"[166][167] and that the new missile can reach "extremely long distances", without elaborating.[168] Soon after the successful test launch, Isaac Ben-Israel, a retired army general and Tel Aviv University professor, told Israeli Channel 2 TV:

Everybody can do the math and understand that the significance is that we can reach with a rocket engine to every point in the world."

These are viable and pertinent questions to ask but loons like MTG hang into these crackpot theories about JFK.

21. If that woman were any stupider she'd forget to breathe

[niyad]

37. She is a prime example of why I think it a pity that breathing is an

autonomic function.

[Prairie Gates]

24. These people are both certifiable

Our politics is dominated by people who would be considered incompetents if not lunatics as recently as 20 years ago.

[rickyhall]

25. Stupid and a hypocrite.

Fundies generally are.

[ImNotGod]

27. What? No space lasers this time? nt

[Botany]

29. Kennedy was shot in 1963 and Israel didn't have rhe bomb until the late 1970s

N/t

[SergeStorms]

31. Trying to drum facts into Empty-G's head....

is like trying to get blood from a stone. She only believes that which supports her preconceived fairy tales.

[Botany]

34. She and those like her live in a different world where facts are what you say they are

Example: Trump fucks up on COVID 19 and the real world wide # of dead is > 14 million
8 million dead diagnosed with C-19, 4 to 5 million dead who were not diagnosed, and
another 1 + million dead because they couldn’t get medical care because the system was
over run with C-19 cases.

Right wing misinformation network’s response. It is really Dr. Anthony Fauci’s fault,
the virus came from a lab in Wuhan, and the real problem is the vaccine (Russian
disinformation).

So JFK was murdered in 1963 and that was because of an Israeli weapons project 15
years later and to MTG that makes sense.

[Vinca]

33. OMG - If there isn't an official MAGA straitjacket, there should be. This is whacko on so many levels.

[Paladin]

35. Stupid twit.

Enjoy what little remains of your national fame, MTG.

[electric_blue68]

40. 😑 Stupid, vapid twit!
