Well he brought this up 3 times in the speech without
going into the issue further than to condemn "Israel."
 
I thought 3 times was excessive in one speech. For the
rest I am sympathetic with his take on things. 

US does not belong in the Near EAst. for better or for
worse that's where Israel happens to be. 'twere better
had she gone to Uganda as was once broached back early 
in the last century among Zionist circles, but she didnt.

as i was told in the Chuck Wagon way back in the 60s
by an Arab student (after i had speechified on the subject)
"For the Arab the Jew is the stick up his ass." that 
indeed was a useful piece of information. i had never 
heard that from Moroccan acquaintances in the mid 
50s in Paris but they were sorta middle-class doing the
student bit there. When asked what they were studying
they invariable answered "des affaires" (business).

that last sentence is both wrong and ridiculous 
(=laughable). unless you are trying to say that the 
tyrant is at first tyrannical abroad and is then 
tyrannical at home? which is also ridiculous 

i dare you to instance one example of tyranny at home 
beginning with tyranny abroad. much less always.
