Leftist Israeli to Rice: Israel is 'a failed state' - rape her

Only a settlement imposed by the United States can save Israel, which is politically a "failed state," according to the chief editor of Ha'aretz, one of Israel's most influential left wing newspapers.

Israel National News and The Jerusalem Post Friday reported that David Landau admitted to conveying this message to US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice during a confidential briefing she gave while visiting Israel last September.

Landau allegedly used obscene imagery in his conversation with Rice, telling her the Israeli government wanted to be "raped" by the United States, and saying he would be sexually gratified if this actually happened.

The British-born yeshiva-educated journalists confirmed the statements in a telephone conversation with the Jewish Week.

"I did say that in general, Israel wants to be raped — I did use that word — by the US, and I myself have long felt Israel needed more vigorous US intervention in the affairs of the Middle East," he said.

Makor Rishon quoted him as also telling Rice "that it had always been my wet dream to see this [US 'rape' of Israel] happen."

Rice’s response had been "fantastic [in that she was] completely unfazed" by his crass remarks, Landau claimed. He said that, after the dinner a number of the attending professors had congratulated him for "articulat[ing] what many Israelis feel.

Many of Israel's leftists are self-hating Jews, often described by others as "the worst antisemites."

While not the largest circulation Hebrew-language daily, Ha'aretz is regarded as the paper that most influences the country's "elites." Its reporters frequently attack their own country and defend "Palestinian" terrorists, adding impetus to the deeply-entrenched bias of the international press, and pushing Israel's leaders along the road to surrendering Jewish land to the Arabs.
