Well, hush my mouth! I'm just after writing that Rahm Emanuel's background makes him a man to be wary of, and what do I read? A quote from the same Rahm, "I am more hawkish than 50 percent of the people in Israel." This from a bloke whose boss claims to favour peace in the Middle East.
Admittedly the statement was made to an Israeli billionaire who has donated millions to the Democrats, but even that gent appears to have been taken aback by it.
