Game Changer Update..............from Dan Friedman

And I will bless them that bless thee, and him that curseth thee will I curse; and in thee shall all the families of the earth be blessed. --Genesis 12:3

[What’s new under the sun? History has never seen a phenomenon like this before. A strong, self-sufficient Israel, not only independent but overflowing with riches that will have mankind beating a path to her door. No wonder the Beinarts, T. Friedmans and other crypto-Israel haters are in a frenzy here and around the world. What’s developing in Israel is like showing Dracula a cross. To them I say “get used to it.” The genie is out of the bottle and there’s no putting him back now. df]

The same friend is in a position to know that there is a bullet train being built from Eilat to Haifa and then up to the Golan Heights. It is not being built by an American contractor. America has no high speed trains. It is being built by a Chinese contractor. Israel has bought new jet trainers, not from the US, but from Italy, with Israeli components, which means that Israeli pilots will be learning to fly planes that are not of American manufacture. The oil and gas fields are not being developed in cooperation with US companies. In the end, it may very well be Russian that participates in the development of those fields. There is more daylight developing, which will come to light as time goes on. Israel is hardly isolated, contrary to what some jackasses believe and American ability to pressure Israeli isolation will lessen as Obama takes America down and as Israel's pursuit of alternatives proceeds and Israel's energy potential grows.
