Hagel and Israel
Former Israeli official Alon Pinkas writes that the attacks on Chuck Hagel as "anti-Israel" are unfounded and do not serve the US-Israel relationship.
Even by the ugly and depressing standards of Washington's [un]civility and character assassination as a beltway hobby, the recent attacks on former Senator Chuck Hagel seem venomous and iniquitous.
The fact that Washington has a readily available thesaurus for such phenomena: "Borked", "Swift-Boated" and, lately, even "Riced," says it all.
