There's way more evidence Donald Trump is colluding with the Saudis and the Israelis than the Russians. But there's silence in the cable news. Why? Why is it so uncomfortable for people to admit that there are countries that have more influence in the halls of power than Russia?
He ripped up the "Iran Deal" because the president of Israel told him to (doing so also benefits the Saudis who also hate Iran). Why is nobody talking about this? The yahoo Netanyahu literally came out and brazenly bragged about being able to influence policy in the White House and yet the focus remains on Russia.
Does anyone remember when Benjamen Netanyahu visited congress? Why does the president of Israel get the luxury of telling congress what they should be doing? That doesn't seem fair to me.
The difference is Israel excerts her influence through a large Jewish constituency in the US whose influences is considered legitimate under the normal concept of liberal democracy, although not necessarily under ethnonationalism of the type that propelled trump to power.
The manner in which Russia excepted her influence here is illegal and of a type considered so damaging that we ourselves found it sufficiently damaging for use in trying to cut Russia further down in size to that of a forth rate power from 1991-2016.
