This may be the way right wing extremists see things, but I for one, do not.

Oh give it a rest! Just because Hagel isn’t enthralled with Israel!

This so called cartoon makes no sense at all.

You’d have to take your lips of Obama’s rear to see anything else.

Chris Matthews likes to play clips from the Daily Show and Colbert Report.
Yesterday he played Colberts spoof of “Friends of Hamas” an organization that doesn’t exist.

Glad McCain didn’t win in ‘08…Hagel would’ve been Secretary of State!

Iran does not want Hagel?
Is that not contrary to his supposed anti Israel stance?
.
Internal logic is missing, the toon contradicts it’s own purported view.

This comic makes no sense.

@Little Green Men
Thank you,
The toon was not cear on the time factor and I had the impression of them trying to off him before he was confirmed.
.
So Iran is rooting for him?
Should they not hate him in public so as to gain support for him with American patriots?

The cartoonist was fooled by Breitbart reports (which also fooled two sitting U.S. senators, also gullible right-wing idiots) about a joke where someone said "unless someone turns up evidence that Hagel spoke at the “Friends of Hamas” convention, he’s okay" and those suckers actually brought the made-up “Friends of Hamas” as though it were a real thing up at the hearing. It’s a joke. The cartoonist, of course, only gets info from Fox News and doesn’t know that the story is 100% tea party garbage.

I think Iran loves Hagel. Why wouldn’t they? And Hagel appears to trust Iran, as the cartoon illustrates.
.
Hagel opposed Iran sanctions.
.
Hagel said Iran was an “elected and legitimate” government. (A friendly Democratic senator had to “pass him a note,” so he said, “What I meant to say — should have said — it’s recognizable.” )
hahah, what government isn’t “recognizable” ?
.
In his confirmation hearing, Hagel said, “We have no position on containment.” Again a Democratic senator had to “pass Hagel a note” to correct him, and so Hagel then says, "What I meant to say is: ‘We do have a position on containment, and that is we do not favor containment.’”
.
He voted against designating al-Quds a terrorist entity.
An al-Quds force attacked our forces in Karbala. Here’s how Time Magazine described the attack:
In the back of two of the vehicles were the four Americans. One of them was alive, though barely. Handcuffed, he had been shot in the back of the head, but he was breathing. The other soldiers were already dead. One had taken bullets in both legs and his right hand, and at some point the kidnappers had torn open his body armor and fired bullets into his chest and torso. Two others were handcuffed together, with one’s right hand joined to the other’s left. Two shots in the face and neck had killed one. Four bullets in the chest had killed the other. The al-Quds terrorists had stolen all of the men’s ID tags. Before dying, one of them had scrawled his name in the dust of the jeep.

Your comment is a perfect illustration of how biased the MSM is and how interested they are in reporting “faux news.” And how the Left just believes what they are told.
Thank God for Fox News. It prevents the Left from going total Pravda.
.
This is a complicated distortion.
Basically the Leftist media are trying to say that the “Friends of Hamas” story is mostly the reason that Republicans were trying to delay Hagel’s confirmation. But the letter from the Republican Senators to Hagel requesting more information about possible foreign funding was sent on Feb. 6, the day before the “Friends of Hamas” story ran.
.
The big story here is why the media didn’t pursue full disclosure from Hagel on foreign funding. He has misled the Senate about what he has already disclosed.
.
And it is possible that “friends of Hamas” as “individuals” did donate. “Members of the Senate Armed Services Committee have expressed concern about Hagel’s funding from the Hariri family, among other foreign donors. Hariri has expressed open hostility towards Israel, and has been at pains to show his support for Hamas, the predominantly Sunni Palestinian terror group that controls the Gaza Strip. In late December, Hariri sent a representative to a large celebration in Beirut of the 25th anniversary of Hamas. He has also maintained contact with Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Gaza, even while abroad in Saudi Arabia.”
