Whatever trouble Robert Malley is in, and for whatever reason… — 20 Comments

  1. Given his history and viewpoints it certainly makes you wonder what possible information Malley could have shared and with whom. Knowing how careless this administration has proven themselves to be I imagine whatever Malley did it’d have to be pretty damn bad for them to actually suspend him.

  2. Administrations that will employ such a person give the impression that they’re not on America’s side.

  3. your suspicions are correct kate, neither was his friend khashoggi,

  4. Things in the Persian Gulf continue to deteriorate. Last week two more tankers were attacked in apparent hijacking attempts. Since then A-10s and F-16s have been moved into the theater and are being used to escort shipping through the Straits of Hormuz.

  5. Typical govt. deep-state behaviour; that is, no matter how often or how bad someone F’s up, depending upon who you know determines which new role you get.
    No one gets fired; one gets a vacation – and then gets re-assigned to some other job where one has the chance to F – up all over again.

    Recall Ohama’s advisor Susan Rice; she went on all the network, lying thru her teeth and promoting the big lie about he causes of the Libyan Embassy attack which killed several Americans. She KNEW her tale of some video was a lie.
    So where did she wind up? Yep, as an advisor to Biden.
    And the taxpayer – you and me – is paying this POS’s salary and benefits.
    True, when it comes to lying and deceit she is a rank amateur compared to Hillary and Pencil Neck Adam Schitty.

    The State Dept budget should literally be cut by 80%; this federal agency is worse than useless – it is harmful.

  6. The dog that didn’t bark Malley story lurks sub rosa somewhere within the following conventional press stories, I reckon. On speculation, I’d guess the Israelis caught Malley irrefutably handing the highest Israeli if not US state secrets to the Mullahs and thereafter confronted the Biden admin with it, threatening exposure if Malley wasn’t yanked out — but again, that’s just a guess.

  7. “Now the Republicans in Congress want answers:”

    WE WANT ANSWERS!

    then what? No allowance for a month? Sent to room with no dessert? Million dollar book deal?CNN panelist?

  8. Fullmoon:

    Do you actually believe they have the power to do more?

    I don’t see it.

  9. we gave up our leverage in the last standoff over the debt ceiling, the state department is at best totally useless under the current adminstration, at worst if actively kow tows to xi and the sepah and every other negative faction,

  10. @neo:Do you actually believe they have the power to do more?

    They did with the debt ceiling, $200 billion per week’s worth of leverage, which they gave up for nothing. The debt limit is in effect a House veto on all additional spending, which McCarthy recruited lots and lots of Democrats to renounce.

  11. Not just the House either. McConnell nuked the Republican filibuster on the debt ceiling in 2021, again with the help of Democrats.

    It’s not enough to have people who have “R” as their party label, they actually have to be people willing to use the power they have to do the right thing, or we’re just going to continue to get rolled. I don’t know, maybe after another 50 years of it we can catch on.

  12. Frederick:

    I’m well aware of that. But that’s obviously not what I’m asking here. I’m asking about what Fullmoon wrote on the specific subject of Malley.

  13. You say “to Mali”, I say “to Malley”.
    Let’s call the whole thing off…

    This idea of Malley being put out to pasture is nothing other than a red herring, camouflage, a coverup—probably to distract us from any upcoming Iran “Deal” (or Iran “Non-Deal”—there can’t be any REAL difference between the two…since Iran has been given the TIME and the MONEY, by you know who, to do essentially what it wants…with Putin riding shotgun and providing “Biden” with an “invisibility cloak”).

    Malley has done his work—haven been given the time and the authority to do it—and he’s done it exceeding well.
    IOW, Malley is “Biden”, i.e., one of “his” many destructive persona, facets, AGENTS.

  14. Robert Malley is an “elite” Jew, marinated since birth in the Marxist class struggle.

    As such, he was the perfect diplomatic instrument for Obama, who used him to cozy up to the Mullahs and fashion the 2015 Iran nuclear “deal.”

    Brought back by Biden and surrounded by Iranian colleagues, it appears that someone has finally taken notice of Malley’s methods.

    The term “treason” has been used, hesitantly – but everything about Malley suggests just that.

    Which begs the question – how deep does the rot go?

    That is the same question, incidentally, that is being asked about the entire Biden enterprise.

  15. Michael Garfinkel:

    Why do you care whether Malley is Jewish? Why not instead write: “Robert Malley is an ‘elite’ leftist, marinated since birth in the Marxist class struggle.”

    Malley was raised by activist leftists, especially his father. I doubt very much he had much if any exposure to Judaism, the religion. Why harp on his Jewishness, then? Here’s more about Malley’s father, part of a speech delivered by Robert Malley himself in 2008. The author of the intro to the speech seems to be a Robert Malley fan, by the way:

    THE ONE THING we know for sure is that he was born in Cairo. He left us with few other certainties. His parents appear to have originally hailed from Aleppo, moving to Egypt at the turn of the last century. There is good reason to believe he was born in the 1920s, though as for the precise year or day, one could trust either one’s imagination or his word—the former often proving more reliable than the latter. His old Egyptian passport indicates a birth date of May 25th, 1923, but he had more than one—passports as well as birthdays.

    He also was Jewish, though the principal effect of his Judaism seems to have been that it provided him added reason to be an Arab nationalist of the fiercely secular, anti-Zionist sort. His life choices were dictated, one senses, by restrictions he faced as a Jew born in an Arab land. He embraced a strong Arab nationalistic worldview and I can’t recall him ever evincing much understanding for or even desire to understand Israelis and their state. He moved to America, but had no patience for the US either, whose foreign policy he denounced with relish and sometimes abandon. Once he’d had enough, he moved his entire family to France; his writings managed to so offend its then-president that, some 11 years later, he was forcefully expelled and put on a plane back to the US, from where he flew directly to Geneva, never even stepping out of Kennedy airport. In the interim, he had turned his back on his homeland as well, breaking his emotional ties with Egypt the moment Egypt had forged its political ties with Israel…

    …[M]y father—for, if you had not already guessed, that’s who this is about—felt overly cramped and confined in the life he was given. And so, he just gave himself another, and another, and yet another. During the course of his eight decades, he took on at a minimum three different names…

    And he acquired no less than nine different citizenships—including Egyptian, American, Algerian, Tunisian, Angolan, Mozambican, French and an honorary Palestinian one…

    My father was, dare I say, an awakened Arab or one who, at a minimum, awoke in me an interest in his part of the world. He’s not the only one who shaped me, my approach to the Middle East and my early encounter with the Arab world, of course. But both in terms of where I started out and the distance I have since traveled, my father looms largest.

    So if Malley got any Jewish education, it was an education in hating Israel. His father clearly identified strongly with Israel’s enemies, and as an Arab. Robert Malley apparently was indeed Jewish by birth, but the atmosphere in which he was raised had virtually nothing Jewish about it. The entire talk of Robert Malley’s is very interesting; I suggest reading it. As awful as he has been in connection with the negotiations with Iran in the years after that speech, he seems practically an American patriot compared to his father.

  16. he is foremost an islamist, his influence is largely do his schoolmate blinken,

    btw victoria nuland is moving up to replace wendy sherman,
