Fed up with how his inept flunkies have squandered his money in both Israel and the US, Sheldon Adelson is considering turning off the money tap and personally running for both president of the US and prime minister of Israel.
Currently number twelve on Forbes rich list, Adelson has spent tens of millions on Netanyahu and Newt Gingrich. Inside sources claim he is more than a little disappointed in the results.
Who can blame him? Netanyahu has single handedly made Israel a pariah on the world stage. He has even succeeded in turning Israelis against each other. It is an open question whether Israel can survive another Bibi term without slipping into civil war.
As for Gingrich, one must question Adelson's judgement on this call. Of all the horses available to bet on in the US presidential race, Gingrich seemed like the longest of longshots. The old carpet-bagger simply has too much baggage to be a viable candidate.
So who could blame Adelson if he chooses to come out from behind the curtain and enter the leadership races in both countries? A joint Israel-USA government would eliminate a lot of unnecessary bureaucratic duplication when you think about it.
AIPAC would be made redundant, thereby eliminating our need to send billions of dollars to Israel which they in turn funnel back to our senators and congressmen.
Defense policy could be better coordinated, eliminating the possibility of some surprise military adventure that we weren't ready for.
Under an Adelson regime gambling oriented theme parks could be established all over the West Bank, taking the minds of those people off their obsession with a homeland.
Once you start to think about it, the possibilities go on and on.
Adelson for President!
Adelson for Prime Minister!
