Palin is an idiot. It is very scary that such figures have any popularity. 'International money' probably is the problem. It seems increasingly sourced for and in wars. The idea of Jews wanting to flock to Israel seems to fly in the face of reality. Palin is probably just cashing up. She sort of reminds me of reality TV and the increasing desire of many people to see themselves in the public eye.
