About as Delusional and Out to Lunch as It Gets Outside an Insane Asylum

Hard leftist Israeli rag Ha'aretz endorses Obama, calls him "good for Israel."

From the standpoint of Ha'aretz's editorial board, getting favorably quoted by the _New York Times_ trumps the survival of their nation. It is just a matter of priorities.

In fairness, I should say that I do not think Israeli Leftists are not any more suicidal than those of other Western countries: just look at Europe . . . heck just look at the U. S.! But I agree that Israel's risk of annihilation has a physical immediacy that is attenuated in the rest of the West; one would expect the near prospect of thermonuclear genocide would serve to concentrate the minds of even the most doctrinaire Leftists . . . but I guess one would think wrong.
