Political Garbage Chute has the article Bummer, Elizabeth Warren, Bummer by James Schlarmann.  This is a diatribe against Warren’s recent comments about Israel.

I’ve never once defended Hamas for their part in this shit-show. I’ve never once said that Hamas has a right to fire rockets into Israel. But I will never tire of pointing out the fact that Israel has the people of Gaza pinned down and penned-up. Where are the people of Gaza supposed to go when they are warned that the building they live in, or worse the building their sick children are getting care in, is about to be blown to smithereens? Senator Warren’s comments on the violence are extremely disappointing in their black-and-white portrayal of the situation.

In the article is a link to a report on Huffington Post which seems to be nothing but assuming too much from a story in Cape Cod Times – Warren explains positions on Israel, Pilgrim.

From past comments on foreign policy by Elizabeth Warren, I had already developed a suspicion that she buys the standard narrative hook, line, and sinker.  She fails to apply the skepticism that has been so good on the oligarchy that is ruling the financial markets of the world.

One commenter on the Schlarmann artice had the following to say:

One thing not mentioned in the article is that it is political suicide in the USA to publicly criticize Israeli conduct. Elizabeth Warren is one senator. She’s no idiot and probably has a pretty good idea what is going on in Gaza. But she has her own fledgling political agenda which would go no further than the next election if she said even one phrase critical of Israel.

While I recognize the truth to this comment, I had been hoping against hope that Elizabeth Warren could find a way to be true to her principles and yet avoid political suicide.  I fear that not only has she not found this path, but she may actually believe what she said at the meeting on Cape Cod.
