![]() ![]() From The New York Times: Sheldon G. Adelson, a cabdriver’s son who built the world's largest empire of casinos and resort hotels in Las Vegas, Macau, Singapore and other gambling meccas and used his vast wealth to promote right-wing political agendas in America and Israel, died on Monday night. He was 87.Sheldon Adelson's last act was to fly traitor Jonathan Pollard out of America to Israel on his personal private plane.
"I am not Israeli. The uniform that I wore in the military, unfortunately, was not an Israeli uniform. It was an American uniform," Adelson told a group in Israel in 2010. "Although my wife was in the IDF and one of my daughters was in the IDF … our two little boys, one of whom will be bar mitzvahed tomorrow, hopefully he'll come back-- his hobby is shooting -- and he’ll come back and be a sniper for the IDF." "All we care about is being good Zionists, being good citizens of Israel, because even though I am not Israeli born, Israel is in my heart." Adelson was a warhawk who in 2013 expressed support for nuking Iran with a pre-emptive strike as a negotiation tactic.
Donald Trump Jr. hailed Adelson as a "true American patriot" after hearing news of his passing.
Adelson is reportedly going to be buried in Israel.
