Democratic presidential hopeful Rahm Emanuel just tossed a live grenade into one of Washington's most protected policy zones.
In a clip from his appearance this weekend on 'Real Time with Bill Maher,' the former Chicago mayor and former Barack Obama chief of staff argued that U.S. policy toward Israel should look a lot less exceptional. "Israel's a very wealthy nation," Emanuel said. "There should be no more taxpayer support for what they want to do, and they get the same deal that any one of our allies does." He added that "the United States should never spill any blood for Israel's security."
