Charles Krauthammer provides a scathing analysis of Assad on Fox News, calling him a "brilliant diplomat and a war criminal." Krauthammer argues that Assad supported Al-Qaeda in Iraq to kill Americans and is now facing blowback from the same elements. Adam Curry disputes this "blowback" narrative, suggesting a more complex origin for the militants in Syria.

### Michael Scheuer, Blowback, and Israel Policy

- **Transcript:** https://search.noagendashow.net/episode/393-throwing-yogurt/chapter/michael-scheuer-blowback-and-israel-policy.md

Former CIA Bin Laden unit chief Michael Scheuer appeared on Russia Today (RT) to argue that U.S. foreign policy, rather than a hatred of "freedom," is the primary driver of Islamic terrorism. Scheuer criticized the influence of the "Jewish American community" on Congress regarding support for Israel. The hosts suggest that while Scheuer's "blowback" argument aligns with Ron Paul, his comments on ethnic influence may lead to him being banned from mainstream media.

- **Published:** 2010-05-06

President Barack Obama's joke about using predator drones on the Jonas Brothers at the White House Correspondents' Dinner is contrasted with the reality of drone strikes in Pakistan. The Times Square bomber's alleged motive—retaliation for drone attacks—is discussed as a legitimate consequence of U.S. foreign policy that the media is now forced to acknowledge.
