Ayoon wa Azan (The scandals of others)

President John Kennedy's name was linked with many scandals. I read that he and his brother Bobby, the attorney general during the 1,000-day presidency, were both having an affair with Marilyn Monroe at the same time. Lyndon Johnson was a vulgar cowboy; his lover Mathilde Krim had a relationship with him in the White House, with the knowledge of Johnson's wife Lady Bird and Arthur Krim (Mathilde's first husband was an Irgun Gang terrorist named David Danon). Richard Nixon was the star of Watergate, which became synonymous with scandal, as "–gate" is now attached to any similar case of scandal. Jimmy Carter, a peanut farmer from Georgia, did not know how to get the hostages in the US embassy in Tehran out, so they remained there for 444 days. Ronald Reagan was a B-movie actor and a third-rate politician. His entire administration was scandalous; he supported every Latin American dictator and sought to overthrow democracies. He supported Israel, and its crimes and occupation. George HW Bush was an exception, as he only served one term. Bill Clinton had sex with an intern, Monica Lewinsky, in the White House, in a scandal that linked his name to dozens of other similar incidents; America's beauties have their stories about being with Bill, before, during and after his presidency. George W Bush was a war criminal; pro-Israeli Likud neoconservatives ruled in his name and falsified evidence to justify the war on Iraq, in which 1 million Arabs and Muslims were killed. None of these people have been tried for these crimes. I read that the war cabal is asking "How Many Americans Has Obama Killed?" Obama did not kill anyone, but they killed thousands. Barack Obama is now in the White House, and has had no sex or war scandals, and has not broken into the offices of the other party. However, I am reading about Obama's "scandals" in the media of the neoconservatives, in newspapers, websites and elsewhere. What are these "scandals"? The killing of four Americans, including Ambassador Chris Stevens in Benghazi, the IRS's targeting of conservative groups, and the Justice Department's monitoring of AP journalists. There are no scandals here at all. Those who are talking about them were behind the killing of 5,000 young Americans in lost wars, which were waged for reasons having to do with oil and Israel. In other words, those who killed American citizens, along with 1 million Muslims and Arabs, believe the killing of four men in a terrorist attack is a scandal. As for targeting conservative groups, an official American report says that IRS employees did not understand the instructions, and points to no connection between Obama and the case. However, people who have dragged America's reputation into the mud around the world, and led the Bush administration to an ongoing national and global financial crisis, consider an error by an employee to be a scandal. The White House monitored AP journalists because of a stream of leaks, and officials sought to learn the identity of the sources for security reasons. I do not support spying on journalists for any reason, but this act is not a scandal of the level of launching failed wars for trumped-up reasons. I wrote about this topic on the 14th of this month and then went to Dubai, to take part in the Arab media conference. I returned on the 19th and found American news items about the "scandals" of the Obama administration that equaled or exceeded what the American press has written about massacres in Syria. I waited for a few days and the campaign did not cease, but instead continued, and grew. Some American papers tried to search for the truth. In The New York Times and elsewhere, I read articles such as "Scandalous and Scandal Lust," "Scandal Machine," and "Benghazi: A new nadir of neocon nuttiness." Would readers like a true scandal? What about the numbers of American soldiers committing suicide, which hit a record level in 2012, at 350 men and women? In 2002, on the eve of Bush's failed wars, there were 10.3 suicides for every 100,000 soldiers, while the figure now stands at 18. Also in 2012, there were 28,000 cases of sexual assault in the armed forces. American soldiers are paying the price of the psychological effects of destructive, unjustified wars launched by the neoconservatives of the Israel cabal. These people are the ongoing scandal, because none of them has been tried for what they did with their own hands.
