@Oliver_Hoff255 @JoshWalkos @coldxman Is knowledge of the Nixon Tapes one of those things that -- like the way the Vietnam and Iraq Wars were sold -- now basically gone so that nobody knows what happened? There are so many Nixon tapes where he talks that way. Here's one. Goldwater, too: x.com/Antunes1/statu…
𝐀𝐍𝐓𝐔𝐍𝐄𝐒@Antunes1

Nixon claims the ‘jewish people’ are problematic and that even as U.S. President, he can’t stop them. “This stranglehold must be broken or this country is going down the drain” “I have no power, no way to handle them”

The debate took place two days ago. It's perfectly reasonable for him to publish his article together with it. It's interesting that you're so upset about it. The quotes I've seen from Nixon Tapes actually indicate the opposite, specifically that he would not bend to them. Please provide a source.

The Nixon thing is a lie. Full quote below. What Nixon actually said: (1) Jewish-Americans see US-Israel interests as perfectly aligned. (2) In fact, they're usually aligned, but not always. (3) When they're not aligned, he ignored the lobby and acted in U.S. interests.

Mind blowing revelation. Glenn Greenwald confirms that Richard Nixon and Barry Goldwater both complained on tape that the Israel lobby completely dictates American foreign policy. This is not a conspiracy theory. It is a documented reality admitted by US Presidents.

Israeli loyalists in the US get indignant at the word "genocide," even as their top leaders and elected officials in Tel Aviv have been making classic genocidal statements and vows like this one for more than two years. The best case against them are their own words and actions:

@HaroldRHS @JoshWalkos @coldxman Is that why he had to spend a week, hour after hour, re-creating the debate for his audience in my absence, whereas -- other than promoting and encouraging people to watch it -- I felt no need to go back and re-debate it but was willing to let people draw their own conclusions?

@ggraham My experiences with him prior to this had been positive, which is why I said yes. He kept saying, publicly and privately, how glad he was we were able to have a debate of that tenor. Maybe I was being naive - it is The Free Press, fater all -- but I really didn't expect this.🤷‍♂️

But then again, maybe I am wrong about Coleman. It's hard enough to know what's in my own heart, much less the hearts of media people I've never met. x.com/ggreenwald/sta…
Glenn Greenwald@ggreenwald

I think it's rather odd behavior to tape a 2-hour debate with me only 2 days ago, where I never interrupted you once and so you could say everything you wanted about my arguments, all while heralding the civility of the discussion (which I agreed with), only to then release this lengthy screed on the day you release the debate using all kinds of accusatory language and insulting rhetoric that you didn't use when I was in front of you, and where you to try re-cast all my arguments into something they weren't, and then repeat the same claims you made in the debate, but in a separate article about the debate where I can't respond to them, all to convince everyone that you really won. It would never have occurred to me to write a long article trying to explain to everyone why I was really right about everything in a debate that we just taped two days ago, that was just released today, and which everyone can go watch for themselves. I thought that was why we did it. Now, beyond all that, you're reduced to claiming I'm "lying," all by radically distorting what I said? I explicitly referred to the rather-famous Nixon tapes (you can Google those), not that interview you cited, although I'm glad you published that interview excerpt because I think it's a good thing for people to hear about how the lobby works. You made what I believed were false claims in that discussion, including one about Joe Kent's claims about Israel and the Butler assassination attempt, but I went out of my way to say I assumed you did it in good faith. Anyway, I'm sorry so much of your own audience at the Free Press and on your personal YouTube page thought that I had the better case, and that you had to spend your day in your own comment section arguing with them. I'm willing to let the debate stand on its own because I'm confident in what was demonstrated.

Coleman Hughes (@coldxman) deserves credit for earnestly and respectfully speaking with people who strongly disagree with him. And, not only does he resist the temptation to hype-edit their comments, but he amplifies their most compellingly presented points (as he does here with @ggreenwald).
Conversations with Coleman@ConvoswColeman

Coleman Hughes (@Coldxman) presses Glenn Greenwald (@GGreenwald) on his relationship with Tucker Carlson. @Coldxman: “I’ve heard [Tucker] promulgate lies to an extent that is really shocking to me…2020 election…Pizzagate…Aliens…Do you, as a journalist, feel that you have a responsibility to hold him accountable?” @GGreenwald: “I’m not saying everything Tucker has said has been in agreement with me. I’m not saying it hasn’t deviated from the facts. I’m not saying that he doesn’t occasionally wander into conspiracy theory. I think that’s true of a lot of people… But my journalism has focused on the people who can start wars—like the U.S. security state—and the people who can spy on us—like the NSA—and the people who go around the world killing people—like the CIA and the president—who can start wars…That’s my focus…There’s no shortage of people attacking Tucker Carlson every single day. But there is a shortage of people attacking all the other institutions. The much more damaging and powerful ones.”

@Oliver_Hoff255 @JoshWalkos @coldxman Leaving aside the fact that I just proved that he distorted what I said, he wrote an endless screed that he published simultaneously with the debate. That's what I'm referencing, not just this tweet.

@ggreenwald @JoshWalkos @coldxman The problem with live debates is that it's hard to research the opponent's claims in real time. It is perfectly reasonable for @coldxman to research it after the fact and provide his response. Next time, don't make such bold claims you can't back up.

@lhfang @HighbrowHaze @coldxman @grok There are a lot of rare earth minerals very important to modern dentistry, and after learning how big and powerful The Dentist Lobby is in Washington, I'm starting to wonder if the military action in Venezuela and the Iran War are attempts to control the future of dentistry.

@ggreenwald @HighbrowHaze @coldxman @grok Glenn I think you're forgetting that $500 million+ annually spent on pro-dentist junkets to foreign countries, dentist think tanks like FDD, WINEP, JINSA etc, dentist state-lobbying, dentist Christian groups, dentist youth advocacy orgs, dentist Super PACs, etc.

@JoshWalkos @coldxman Yes, but I find this pubic behavior undignified. It's what the Wikipedia-reliant Destiny does: he'll debate you in these endless exchanges, then spend the next week re-answering what you said when you're not there to convince his audience that he won. I didn't expect that here.

@HighbrowHaze @lhfang @coldxman @grok Is there a Miriam Adelson figure for dentists who donates hundreds of millions to -- as Trump said -- support Israel even over the US, but whose massive funding isn't counted in the "pro-Israel lobby" spending statistics? How about Bill Ackman and Paul Singer and the rest?

@AvianiHashem @ChesterLemon1 You're supposed to pretend you like gays or whatever, remember? That's one reason we're supposed to love Israel? I'm a US citizen and pay taxes to the US Govt. And as long as my taxes are commandeered to finance Israel's military, society, and war crimes, it's my business.

This little trick -- named The Barak Ravid Tactic, after the Israeli media operative who launders it -- has been used repeatedly. We hear reports of Trump and Netanyahu diverging, Trump negotiating a peace: all a ruse that enables war. Let's hope there's an exception now:
Ryan Grim@ryangrim

Isreali media reporting that Netanyahu expects a ceasefire announcement from Trump this Saturday. Translation: Ground invasion coming this weekend.

new rule: if you call someone an antisemite, you should be prepared to immediately back it up with a quote from them where they said something bigoted against Jewish people. If you can't provide such a quote, you have to apologize and shut up.

@ggreenwald For some reason, the fleeting report we got this morning that Iran is willing to talk to J.D. Vance gives me something I have to call "hope". It might all be b.s., of course. But Vance is much smarter than Trump, and may not simply be an employee of Israel like all the others.

@TheBabylonBibi Tucker Carlson is a Jew-hater and the proof is that he's constantly interviewing Jews on his show. If he had no Jews on his show, that would also be used as proof.

There's an orchestrated campaign to decree Hasan Piker off-limits in decent society by branding him an anti-Semite. What has he said that's anti-Semitic, with full quotes? I've had critiques of Hasan, but this just shows how every influential Israel critic is branded a bigot:
AIPAC 🇺🇸🇮🇱@AIPAC

‘If you think America deserved 9/11 and Zionists are rabid neo-Nazis, we’d be proud to have you on our show.’ Thanks for sharing.
