Times of Israel Takes "Mad Dog" Mattis Words Out of Context #FakeNews


The Times of Israel reports: President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to head the Pentagon, "Mad Dog" Mattis, reported that the United States should continue treating Tel Aviv as Israel’s capital, breaking with Republican members of Congress and intimations the incoming president could fulfill his campaign pledge to move the US embassy to Jerusalem.

When asked during his confirmation hearing with the Senate Armed Services Committee, if he supported the embassy’s relocation, retired Marine Corps general James “Mad Dog” Mattis said, “Right now I stick with the current US policy.” - that is - as he himself said - defer to secretary of state, thats their department...
Mattis emphasized, that “the capital of Israel that I go to, sir, is Tel Aviv, sir, because that’s where all their government people are.” - Which is true.

Check out this picture: Defense Secretary Ash Carter, is warmly welcomed by his Israeli counterpart, Moshe Yaalon, in 2015, for his Cabinet-level U.S. visit to the Jewish state since the Iran nuclear deal was announced - in Tel Aviv!



Ok and what about this one, here Israeli Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Gadi Eizenkot, right, inspects the honor guard with United States Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff General Joseph F. Dunford, during a welcoming ceremony at Keriah in Tel Aviv, Israel. Sunday, Oct. 18, 2015.



Wait a second, why is Eizenkot welcoming a United States Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff in Tel Aviv. And rest assured, this is not a rare occurrence, its common practice.

So who exactly is to blame here? Mattis or the foolish Israeli government - who should have moved the Keriah to Jerusalem a long time ago...

Once again the Times of Israel shows its bias, thus making this whole article (hereflat out, fake news...
