Not too long before Rev. Dr. Matthew F. Hale was arrested on contrived charges, he had published a book that told the inner-details of what occurred on September 11, 2001. Some feel that Rev. Dr. Hale was actually arrested for writing this book. Certainly, the charges against him were entrapment at best. (A government agent, Tony Evola, said that he [Evola] wanted to commit a grand crime, to which Rev. Dr. Hale responded that he wanted nothing to do with it. This was the sole reason for Rev. Dr. Hale's imprisonment.)
Convicted under the Patriot Act, an act designed to punish American patriots for daring to put America's best interests before Israel, Rev. Dr. Hale has been denied proper legal representation and has not been allowed to adequately defend himself in court. This is Big Brother's way of hiding His crimes: arresting people on bogus charges and not allowing them to properly fight the charges.
This book--now here in HTML format--tells the entire truth: The terrorists attacked America because of its support for Israel, and Israel knew of the terrorists' plans but did not inform America so that America might become more entangled in the Mid-East conflict and side with Israel. Further, there is credible evidence to suggest that Israel not only allowed this to occur but might have possibly assisted said terrorists with this entire process simply to ensure that the ensuing hatred against the Arab states would be created by a successful mission.
Big Brother does not want you to read this book. It cannot be refuted, and proves beyond the shadow of a doubt its claims: that Israel knew about 9-11 beforehand, that Israel allowed 9-11 to occur with the hope of getting America involved in its wars (such as Iraq, though the Israelis want Iran next), and that Israel might have been involved in the entire nefarious ordeal.
These claims are not idle chatter but easily verified facts within this highly detailed and footnoted expose'. Doubt if you may; but if you dare to read this book, you will discover it is indeed true without question. The facts are there; the facts are publicly available. And now you can see the facts for yourself in this well-researched and footnoted book. NO BOOK ON THE INTERNET OR ELSEWHERE PROVES THIS ARGUMENT BETTER THAN REV. DR. MATT HALE'S BOOK.

Here's the thing...if you were able to view Carl Cameron's Orwellized report, you will notice a curious statement: "Evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information." Note the wording - the evidence is "classified"...not "non-existent", but CLASSIFIED.

More Tolerance, I See...NOT
Jewish terrorists torch West Bank Mosque, scrawl Nazi slogans
[ 11/12/2009 - 02:16 PM ]
From Khalid Amayreh in the West Bank
In what seems to signal an escalation of organized Jewish terror against Palestinians and their property, suspected Jewish terrorists on Friday torched a mosque in the northern West Bank .
Palestinians sources said armed settlers from a nearby settlement threw flammable substance inside the Hasan Khadr Mosque at the village of Yasuf near Salfit, 15 kilometers, south west of Nablus .
The incident occurred around 4:00 am, shortly before dawn.
The suspected terrorists also scrawled Nazis slogans in Hebrew, reading “revenge” and “we will burn all of you.” Other scrawls read “price-tag-greeting from Effi” Effi is a Hebrew name.
Yasuf local council head Abdul Rahim Musleh said the fire gutted the mosque’s interior, including the carpeted floor, numerous, numerous Qurans and as well as furniture..
The targeted mosque is the largest of four mosques in the village of 2000 inhabitants.
Munir Abbushi, the governor of the Salfit district, where the terrorist act took place, accused the Israeli government and army of encouraging the settler terrorists to attack Palestinians.
“The Israeli army is doing nothing to protect the Palestinians from the settler aggression. Army inaction encourages the settlers to escalate their terror against our people and holy places,” said Abbushi.
The head of the Israeli army’s so-called Civil Administration in the West Bank , Yoav Mordechai, condemned the torching of the mosque, saying he would see to it that the perpetrators are apprehended and brought to justice.
However, Palestinians doubt Israeli sincerity in combating organized Jewish terror carried out by settlers indoctrinated in extremist religious ideology advocating genocide against non-Jews.
Khalid Maali, a Palestinian journalist from Salfit, attributed the incident to repeated edicts, or religious rulings, by rabbis urging settlers to kill Palestinians and vandalize their property.
“These rabbis are saying in broad daylight that it is a mitzvah (good religious deed) to murder non-Jews and destroy their property. And these terrorist settlers are simply acting on and carrying out these edicts.”
Maali charged that the Israeli government and army were legitimizing settler attacks against Palestinians by failing to apprehend and punish terrorists involved in terrorist attacks.
“This is tantamount to encouraging them to commit more terror. When these terrorist are allowed to get away with impunity, the Israeli government is effectively telling them that you can attack Palestinians and torch mosques and have nothing to worry about.”
Reactions
The torching of the Hasan Khadr mosque has drawn angry reactions from Palestinian leaders on both sides of the Green Line.
Ahmed Teibi, a prominent leader of the 1.5 million-strong Arab community in Israel , who is also a Knesset member, held Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak responsible for this “sinful act.”
“By giving these thugs (Jewish settlers) a carte blanch to maraud and rampage throughout the West Bank , the Israeli army and government are effectively encouraging them to commit crimes against the Palestinians.”
He urged the occupation army to immediately put an end to settler terror and violence before the situation gets out of hand.
The league of Muslim Ulema or religious scholars in occupied Palestine strongly condemned the “sacrilegious act,” calling on the Palestinian Authority to stop stripping Palestinians of fire arms.
“The PA has stripped the people of their arms. Now we stand unable to defend and protect ourselves. And the PA security agencies are not allowed to repulse settler attacks as their only task is to fight the resistance fighters,” said league chief Sheikh Hamed al Beitawi.
Al-Beitawi, who is also an elected member of the Palestinian legislative council who has spent years in Israeli jails for opposing the Israeli military occupation, also denounced rabbis for issuing edicts to their followers, inciting them to murder Palestinians and vandalize their property.
“These rabbis call themselves men of peace, but true men of peace don’t incite to terror and hatred and bloodshed. Imagine how these rabbis would react if a Jewish synagogue was torched in London or in Paris. They would invoke the entire history of anti-Semitism from the Spanish inquisition to the Nazi holocaust.”
Settler leaders have repeatedly said they will attack Palestinians and their property every time the Israeli army moves to vacate settlers from illegal outposts. The threats have been carried out, with settlers attacking Palestinian farmers, especially olive-pickers, businesses and now mosques.
This is not the first time Jewish terrorists attack Muslim holy places. In 1994, a Jewish terrorist who had immigrated from the United States, riddled Muslim worshipers with bullets at the Ibrahimi Mosque in downtown al Khalil, killing 29 and injuring and maiming dozens.
The terrorist, Baruch Goldstein, who was eventually killed by survivors, became a saintly figure for right-wing Jewish fanatics who advocate the extermination, enslavement or expulsion of non-Jews from mandatory Palestine (the land between the River Jordan to the Mediterranean).
The Aqsa Mosque in al Quds has also been a constant target for organized Jewish terror since Israel occupied the city from Jordan in 1967.
Similarly, other mosques, both in the West Bank and pre-1948 Palestine, have been repeatedly vandalized and desecrated by supremacist Jewish groups seeking the extirpation of non-Jews from Palestine.
What a clusterfuck. I think that "turn the other cheek" adage is going to get real old, real fast.
In other news...Adam PEARLMAN, a.k.a. Adam Gadahn, a.k.a. "Azzam The American", has released an al Qaeda tape?
What what WHAT? A Jewish male purports to be a member of a made-up organization and releases a videotape warning America?

A Thorn in the World’s Side
Oh, dear...could it be that the shine is rubbing off of the shitty little state that thought it could steal land with impunity?
Indeed...hey - check out the comments for this article.

A Thorn in the World’s Side
Israel in midst of freefall on global front, yet we’re preoccupied with nonsense
By Sever Plocker
November 15, 2009 "Ynetnews" -- Nov. 03, 2009 -- I’ve been invited to deliver a lecture about Israel’s economy and society at Oxford University. As it is a short lecture, and a respectable forum, I gladly accepted the offer. The invitation was extended about six months ago. Yet now, as my trip approaches, I feel concern. I’m hesitating.
My acquaintances are warning me: Don’t go. Hostile elements will cause disturbances, protest, shout and interfere. The atmosphere at British universities is anti-Israel to an extent unseen in the past. Israel is perceived as a thorn in the civilized world’s side.
An Israeli professor who quietly left a prestigious British university told me: “My academic and social life there was intolerable. Colleagues stayed away from me as if I was a leper. I was not invited to meetings, which were shifted from university buildings to private residences in order to keep me out. The fact I openly expressed leftist views was to no avail. My objection to the occupation and endorsement of a return to the 1967 borders made no difference. In practice, I became ostracized.”
“Today you are a welcome guest in the British and European academic world only if you reject the very existence of the colonialist and imperialistic creature that methodically commits war crimes, known as Israel,” he said. “Today it isn’t enough to condemn Bibi and Barak; in order to be accepted by academia outside of Israel one must condemn the Balfour Declaration.”
British academia’s radicalism highlights the accelerated deterioration in Israel’s status and image. We are in the midst of a freefall on the foreign affairs front. The cold peace with three Muslim states – Egypt, Jordan, and Turkey – has turned into a cold war. Israelis are unwelcome guests in these and many other states, where in the past we were embraced.
Meanwhile, Israel failed in its efforts to isolate Ahmadinejad’s Iran and disqualify it as a member of the family of nations. Ahmadinejad is having a grand time.
Bibi doesn’t see the change
The intimate dialogue that in the past characterized the relationship between the US president and Israel’s prime minister is paralyzed. The pipeline of dialogue is clogged. India and China, the two emerging powers, voted in favor of adopting the Goldstone Report at the UN’s human rights commission. Ever since then, it has been etched on Israel’s forehead as a Sign of Cain.
Friendly governments, such as France and Britain, are turning their backs on us while currying favor with local sentiments. Israel’s membership in OECD, which was largely a done deal in the past, is distancing again – because of the growing negativity vis-Ã -vis Israel and not because any technical dispute. By coincidence, or not, large foreign investors are pulling out of Israel.
Does everyone hate us? Possibly so, yet the fact is that up until six months ago Israel enjoyed an extraordinary boom on the foreign affairs front, both in terms of its foreign ties as well as in global public opinion. This fact points to one source for the deterioration we’re seeing: The new government in Jerusalem.
Indeed, this is a government elected by the people and it reflects the preferences of voters, who wanted a coalition comprising Likud, Shas, and Yisrael Beiteinu. As such, Netanyahu appointed Lieberman foreign minister, did not agree to a government rotation with Kadima, was unable to arrange a work meeting with the Palestinian Authority president, and conveyed a message of indifference towards the peace process.
Yet worse than this, the 2009 Netanyahu does not understand the world, and he mostly fails to grasp the change taking place within conservative parties, which are close to his political positions. Today they are the source of harsh criticism against the Israeli government; Netanyahu’s government.
The current anti-Israel wave is particularly dangerous especially because it is not limited to the media and to leftist groups that traditionally were classified as “Israel haters.” This wave is rising, expending, drawing young people, and painting the perceptions of the well-established middle class and influential elites.
Israel’s image has hit a nadir; it is isolated, unwanted, and perceived as bad. The world is telling us that should we continue along the same contemptible path, we will lose our legitimacy.
Yet we’re preoccupied with nonsense.
Indeed...hey - check out the comments for this article.

USA And The World: At The Crossroads Or In The Crosshairs? - Travis Kelly
A correction to my last Samizdat posting about Ahmadinejad -- the Daily Telegraph seems to have pulled this out of their ass, without any due diligence:
Ahmadinejad has no Jewish roots
Rumours that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's family converted to Islam from Judaism are false. In fact, they are proud Shias
http://www.guardian.co.uk/commentisfree/2009/oct/05/mahmoud-ahmadinejad-jewish-family
One recently published claim about his background comes from an article in the Daily Telegraph. Entitled "Mahmoud Ahmadinejad revealed to have Jewish past", it claims that his family converted to Islam after his birth. The claim is based on a number of arguments, a key one being that his previous surname was Sabourjian which "derives from weaver of the sabour, the name for the Jewish tallit shawl in Persia".
Professor David Yeroshalmi, author of The Jews of Iran in the 19th Century and an expert on Iranian Jewish communities, disputes the validity of this argument. "There is no such meaning for the word 'sabour' in any of the Persian Jewish dialects, nor does it mean Jewish prayer shawl in Persian...

USA and the World: At the crossroads or in the crosshairs?
Come Carpentier de Gourdon
08 Oct 2009

History is being written every day but there is little doubt that the years from 2008 to 2010 will be remembered in the future as the period during which the global system transitioned from almost unchallenged unipolar western dominance to a much more complex and uncharted chaotic state.
The after-effects of the financial meltdown in the USA brought about the rapid decline of the NATO-centered western security structure, already challenged by the tragic wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, while Israel, a pillar of the global US-led alliance, was put on the strategic defensive by its botched attack on Lebanon and on the moral defensive by its brutal assault on Gaza, which exposed the Jewish state to the charges of war crimes and even crimes against humanity, earlier levied against its American mentor in Iraq, Afghanistan and Pakistan.
Conversely, while the “metaphorical” West is being buffeted by economic and political storms, many of its own making, China, India, Brazil and other leading nations of Asia, Latin America and Africa are experiencing a new spring of hope as they see the centres of gravity of the old “order” shifting rapidly towards them. Indeed the problems that those developing countries are experiencing are often caused by their interactions with the poles of worldwide finance (New York, London) and by the contamination of America’s multiple woes to its neighbours and partners.
The perception of this situation has led to a number of rather predictable consequences. The socialist or nationalist anti-Wall Street (a fairer description than “anti-American” or “anti-globalization”) governments of Venezuela, Bolivia, Argentina, Ecuador, Iran and Belarus were reinforced and vindicated in their resolve to create an alternative order, while the “good students” of global liberalism such as Mexico, South Africa, Nigeria and even the United Arab Emirates were severely hurt and saw their socio-political stability challenged. Russia was provided with further reasons to review its commitment to capitalism and forced to increase Government intervention in the economy.
China likewise used its command and control structures to inject several hundred billion dollars worth of stimulus to support threatened companies and fight mounting unemployment. Japan elected to power, with an overwhelming majority, a party committed to reorganize the social dispensation, reshape its foreign policy, distance itself from the USA, and strike a closer collaboration with China and other Asian neighbours.
The Atlantic Alliance thus finds itself in a rapidly worsening predicament. Faced by formidable competition in all areas by the rising powers of Asia and South America, increasingly dependent upon Russia and other less-than-friendly countries for its energy, threatened with eviction from its traditional African backyard by China, India, Brazil and other new entrants on the continent, mined by social unrest as a result of the economic and unemployment crisis, weakened by ill-fated colonial wars in the Middle East, bled by the thousand pricks of Islam-inspired terrorism, demoralised by the fast spreading perception of a looming climatic and environmental Armageddon and deeply divided within, the “West” is less homogenous than ever perhaps since World War II, and is fighting to retain control over an international architecture it can no longer afford to support.
Hence the repeated appeals to Russia, China and India to become part of this system and take their share of responsibility in it. However those attempts to co-opt the three most significant “non western” states are inspired by the hope that they can be kept apart from each other and possibly on unfriendly terms, in order to avoid a coordination that would be ominous for the US-ruled alliance.
While sharp divisions emerged between the USA and Continental Western Europe with regard to the Iraq war and are widening on the Afghan theatre, even greater disagreements have been recorded on the subject of the economy and specifically on how to respond to the crisis.
Those divisions are also to be found within most countries in the Atlantic alliance, including the US, where President Barack Obama is torn between two bitterly opposed camps, i.e. those who elected him to carry out radical reforms in domestic and foreign policies on one side, and those who opposed or grudgingly supported him in order to prevent him from carrying out those very reforms on the other. That division is less obvious but much more real than the supposed cleavage between the Democratic and Republican parties which have long been rival but complementary interest groups in the service of the same system.
The division, in simple terms, manifests most visibly on four critical issues: the economy, the Israel-Palestine situation (which includes the policy towards Iran), the Russia-China conundrum and the Afghan situation. Iraq, at least temporarily ceased to be a major item of disagreement in the USA as a result of the relative but fragile status quo that has prevailed there since 2007. The only differences regard the pace of repatriation of US troops and the amount of forces that should be maintained there permanently or at least for the foreseeable future. However the four other issues have all appearances of being intractable.
The Economy
The Obama administration has disappointed the reformers of various persuasions as he gave every sign of being both unable and unwilling to challenge the power of the entrenched Wall Street lobbies and business interests. The massive and rabid opposition he faced on the issue of healthcare reform, especially with regard to any notion of public healthcare that is seen as “communistic” by too many Americans under the influence of the propaganda broadcast by insurance companies and pharmaceutical consortia, is symptomatic of a deadlocked system, controlled by its beneficiaries who refuse to concede their privileges under any circumstances.
This obduracy is indeed the major factor for the increasingly likely collapse of the United States, in spite of its being still an immensely wealthy country. On a smaller scale, California, the richest state of the Union is also rapidly declining under the weight of its own political-fiscal deadlock which has condemned it to bankruptcy. Though American military might cannot be matched by any other nation in the foreseeable future, it is unlikely that this power can remain effective when the underlying socio-political structures crumble and when the defence machinery itself cannot be properly oiled with the vast financial outlays it requires. At present the USA is gradually keeling over under the burden created by the 8 trillion Dollar real estate bubble when it burst.
Israel-Palestine
All American policies in the Near and Middle East are influenced, when not determined by, its equation with Israel. The Zionist lobby (both Jewish and Christian) propounds as an article of faith that Israel is a divinely ordained state which the US is duty-bound, according to its founding religious creed, to support and protect in all circumstances. Obama seems to have dual loyalties on this issue. He is a member of the African-American community, has Muslim origins in his father’s family, was like his wife Michelle long involved with black social action networks, and must respond in some way to the growing irritation felt in many domestic quarters against Israel’s foreign policies and the very high diplomatic, financial, human and image costs they entail for the United States.
Obama must also try to assuage a majority of public opinion abroad that sees the American government as a virtual hostage of Zionist interests, but he cannot afford to antagonize too much the Jewish elite in the country which has already shown its ability to jeopardize his presidency. For instance, the vociferous campaign of the so-called “Birthers” who claim that the first African-American President was not born in the territory of the USA and is in fact a Kenyan, hence not eligible to hold the highest office, gives every indication of having being inspired by Israeli agents, including the leader of the “Birthers”, Orly Taitz, who was reported to have both American and Israeli citizenships and rumoured to be close to Prime Minister Netanyahu.
In the same vein, the Israeli administration deliberately evinced its disdain for its counterpart in Washington, when the latter attempted to restart stalled negotiations with the Palestinian authority in August 2009, by announcing the construction of new settlements in occupied territories in spite of Obama’s requests.
On the larger theatre, Israel has been relentlessly pushing the US and its NATO allies to bomb Iran’s nuclear research facilities because of the suspicion that they may be used to develop a nuclear weapon. It is edifying that both Israel and the USA, which never seriously objected when Pakistan became a nuclear weapons state, with the not-so-covert help of the USA, are fixated on Iran’s alleged military nuclear capabilities. Why the dread of a “Shiite Islamic bomb” when the “Sunni bomb” was taken in stride?
For one, Pakistan is a client state of the United States and Britain, which is not expected to turn against them or their protégés, but Iran’s nuclear programme is also used as a bogey by Tel Aviv, just as when the Jewish state promoted the now discarded belief that Iraq was amassing weapons of mass destruction to call for the invasion of the country and Saddam Hussein’s overthrow.
It is in Israel’s interest to bring as much of the region as possible under US military and political control, or at least under the superpower’s attacks, so as to leave no potential enemy or challenger to its East or South. The calculus in Israel is that disarming Iran would ipso facto weaken Syria and the Hezbollah which could be subsequently defanged. In pursuit of this objective, Israel refuses now to seriously pursue negotiations with the Palestinians as long as the US does not “take care” of Tehran.
The implications of the Israeli government’s brinkmanship can of course be tragic for the Middle East and for the world. If Tel Aviv and Washington do not stop at covert destabilizing operations inside Iran and launch air attacks against the Islamic Republic, retaliations can be expected in all areas where Iran has the ability to strike at US and Jewish interests and a new wave of anti-western anger is sure to arise in many parts of the world.
Muslims populations may not be the only ones to express their outrage through violence. Too many disenfranchised and angry victims of the ongoing economic crisis are likely to find in this new “war for Zionism and oil” a channel to manifest their hostility to their rulers and their resolve to overthrow the global oligarchy. For Israel to press for a “final (military) solution” in the Middle East, though it will certainly not be final unless nuclear holocaust occurs, shows a state of desperation among some right-wing Zionists, or at least a worrisome recklessness of the type evinced by the Wall Street gamblers who brought about the multi-trillion dollar losses of 2008.
An indication of the acute tension reached in the Iran-Israel conflict could be found in a mysterious incident involving the Russian cargo ship Arctic Sea, which was bizarrely hijacked twice on its journey to Algeria in July 2009, by “pirates” on a speedboat posing as Swedish policemen, who took it to the Cape Verde islands, before the Russian navy was able to trace the vessel and take control of it on August 17, after deploying considerable resources in coordination with various other European states and the USA. The pirates, according to some intelligence sources hailed from Russia and the Baltic countries, but were rumoured to have acted on behalf of the Israeli Mossad. Russian Defence Minister Anatoly Serdyukov called them “CIA terrorists”, suggesting that they might have been rogue agents.
Not long after they were arrested and taken back to Russia to be tried, Prime Minister Netanyahu flew secretly to the Kubinka Air Force base on September 7, “in breach of all protocol,” to meet President Medvedev. He was accompanied by Meir Kalifi, his military adviser and Uzi Arad, his national security adviser. Though not much was learnt about the discussions, it was reported that apart from angrily demanding the release of his agents “Bibi the American” as he is nicknamed in Israel, tried to secure Russian non-intervention in the event of Israelis staging bombing raids over Iran.
The meeting appears to have been stormy. Medvedev later said in an interview with Fareed Zakaria on CNN, after news had leaked about the clandestine visit, that he had only agreed to the secrecy in response to Netanyahu’s request, though he did not see the need for it and would have preferred that the visit be official. The reason for the hijacking of MV Arctic Sea remains a mystery, but it appears that major strategic interests were at stake if one looks at the massive resources Russia deployed to recover the ship and defeat what was almost certainly a covert operation conducted for undisclosed reasons on a vessel whose real cargo was not ascertained.
Shortly afterwards, Russia sought assurances from Israeli President Shimon Peres that there would be no attack on Iran; Prime Minister Putin pointedly highlighted the Russian warning on the anniversary of September 11, 2001. It appears that the Russian Government sought to prevent a unilateral military move from the Netanyahu government by getting not only the Israeli head of state to commit that there would be no attack on Iran, but also the American administration.
Indeed, President Obama himself issued a veiled but stern warning to the bellicose Jewish premier through his informal but very influential adviser, Zbignew Brzezinski, who in an interview to the Daily Beast on 22nd, openly invoked the prospect of the US Air Force shooting down any Israeli planes heading to Iran. Brzezinski even recalled, -horribile dictu- the 1967 Israeli deadly bombing of the electronic spying ship USS Liberty to suggest that Americans might not be averse to getting even with Tsahal, thus breaking a taboo enforced from the White House since the day of that incident. This series of events reflect the fact that the wind is turning. An insolvent and deeply divided America is constrained to rethink its policies in the Middle East as they have become unsustainable and detrimental.
A number of strange and disturbing events, apparently caused by terrorism, took place in the territory of the Russian Federation during the month of September. On August 17, the very day when Russian special forces took control of the Arctic Sea from the hijackers, a massive explosion destroyed the Sayano Shusenskaya hydro-electrical power plant in Siberia, causing a large number of casualties, and on September 13 the Directorate of Military Intelligence situated on an Air Base at Tambov was the target of a commando who managed to penetrate it, killing various security personnel and setting fire to an archive reported to contain a number of sensitive government files.
Were those attacks related to the Arctic Sea incident and the stormy meeting between the Russian President and the Israeli Prime Minister? The verdict of various experts is that somebody was trying to apply intense pressure on the Kremlin, possibly to dissuade it from obstructing western designs against Iran.
On September 16, a trilateral meeting took place in Washington between President Obama, Prime Minister Putin and Prime Minister Harper of Canada, during which the US and Russia agreed on a number of surprisingly conciliatory moves. It has been reported that one of the points of agreement was the need to contain Israeli bellicosity and prevent the situation in the Middle East from getting out of hand, in line with the warnings recently issued by some eminent analysts, including Professor Immanuel Wallerstein, predicting a “firestorm” for US interests and forces in the region, if the worsening situation involving Israel, Iraq, Iran and Afghanistan was not quickly brought under control.
Russia-China
Though the People’s Republic of China and the Russian Federation have very different situations vis-Ã -vis the United States, the fact that since the beginning of the twenty-first century they coordinate their foreign policies to some extent and especially their responses to the US, has forced Washington to take them into account in tandem on a number of sensitive issues, in the Middle East, Europe and Latin America, as in North Korea.
The economic power of the Middle Kingdom and the strategic-nuclear might of Russia combined with the latter’s energy and mineral resources make the world’s two largest nations, by population and land area respectively, indispensable or inevitable as the case may be. There is no assurance that the alliance of convenience struck between Beijing and Moscow will survive the likely divergence of some of their respective interests, but in the present context they need each other to defend themselves effectively against western hegemonic designs.
Evidently the colossal US debt to China and Europe’s dependence on Russian oil and gas give the two Eastern states decisive leverage over the Atlantic Alliance, and as of 2009 there are increasing signs that the US is caught in an economic vice by China, which is able to exercise informal vetting rights over American financial and foreign policies, while Russia wields its refurbished conventional and nuclear arsenal to restore and extend its influence in many regions, from the Mediterranean to the South Atlantic and from Venezuela to the Arctic Ocean, while its nuclear submarines and its long-range strategic bombers surround mainland America. Those may be theatrical moves but they convey a message clearer than words.
The situation of the USA vis-Ã -vis China may offer some grounds for comparison with the state of the United Kingdom and its empire in the years leading up to and during the Second World War when London became dependent on the United States, then the world’s largest factory and credit provider. That dependence was increased and made manifest by the lend lease programme which effectively gave the White House a right of veto over all of White Hall’s decisions.
Today, the USA must practically get China’s agreement before it can carry out any major domestic or foreign initiative. Many have said that the dependence is mutual and that a full-fledged collapse of the US would be disastrous for China’s economy, but this is cold comfort to clear-sighted American policy-makers, who see Beijing taking a number of measures to rapidly reduce its excessive reliance on the US export market.
Indeed, after the aforesaid 16 September meeting, the White House announced its intention to abandon the missile shield project in Eastern Europe and is so far resisting the obsessive Israeli calls for launching a war against Iran. More American concession are likely to follow, involving the tacit recognition of Russia’s preponderance in its traditional sphere of influence by shelving plans to induct Ukraine and Georgia into NATO and stopping the US moves to build a military presence in Central Asia.
In return, it appears that President Putin renounced the legal action pursued by the Russian state against the Bank of New York, seeking 22 billion Dollars in damages in exchange for a token 14 million Dollars in legal costs. More importantly, apart from confirming its willingness to allow American supplies passage through Russia on the way to Afghanistan, Russia toned down its call for replacing the US greenback with a new global reserve currency, endorsing instead the Chinese proposal for a basket of currencies including the Dollar.
Afghanistan
The so-called graveyard of empires is living up to its reputation by conjuring a nightmare of defeat and humiliation for NATO strategists. Both during his presidential campaign and after his election, Barack Obama had, like many other politicians, presented the Afghan war as a righteous and necessary conflict, as opposed to the invasion of Iraq which was illegal and staged under false pretenses. He thereby sought to reassure a majority of Americans who prefer to be seen as strong even if wrong, as opposed to being morally right but appearing weak.
Its perpetual insecurity, perhaps rooted in a lingering inferiority complex vis-Ã -vis older imperial nations, leads the world’s “sole superpower” to assume that it must prove itself by using overwhelming force whenever the occasion arises. Hence Afghanistan was to provide proof to doubters and naysayers that “America was not running away” and that the rather inglorious outcome in Iraq could be balanced by a successful pacification of the lands abutting the Hindu Kush, that in turn would facilitate the annexation of sprawling and energy-rich Central Asia into the Western fold. Perhaps unknowingly, modern day American strategists are echoing the views of British Prime Minister Disraeli, who claimed that the safety of the Empire hinged on those very Afghan mountains.
In September 2009 Obama, well aware that the USA had already spent 38 billion Dollars in economic assistance alone with little to show for it in the war-torn country, had second thoughts on the strategy to expand the war and increase the number of troops in Afghanistan until final victory. He could not fail to notice that many of his advisers were not sure of what victory meant in the local context and how durable or real it could be. The paradox is that both Russia and China, not to mention several other nations not directly involved, are vicariously satisfied to see the US bleed slowly, while exhausting itself in a seemingly endless campaign against resourceful and adamant guerillas.
They don’t want it to leave, abandoning the terrain to victorious Taliban, but neither do they want it to achieve full control of Afghanistan and use it as a base to interfere in adjacent countries in furtherance of its interests. Brzezinski pointed out in the above cited interview that the Kremlin might not be too sorry either if the USA opened another Pandora’s box by attacking Iran and having to live with the consequences which, though always uncertain, were likely to be dreadful not only for the Middle East but also for Washington and for Western Europe.
The Afghan question, like all others, brings into the open the divisions between the opposite sides within the USA and its main Atlantic allies. On one side are the “conservatives” who remain aligned with the Zionist Right Wing lobby and who believe that the West cannot afford to show weakness and must pursue the war effort at any cost while carrying on a policy of encirclement and intimidation towards Russia and even China; a policy inherited from the Bush administration. On the other are the centrist and leftist reformers who enjoy some support within the Euro-American Jewish liberal lobby in their attempt to bring about a radical change by mending fences with Russia and China and building a new global system that can take care of some of the major threats facing mankind.
There is little doubt that Obama personally belongs to the second faction, though he needs must appease the opposite camp. The moves made by his administration to enforce tighter sanctions on Iran may be part of that strategy, but are unlikely to satisfy the hawks who know that sanctions have rarely if ever brought a state to surrender or even negotiate, and that they are not expected to have all the desired effects on Iran because too many countries have an interest in bypassing them in order to do business with the energy-rich and strategically located Islamic republic. China and Russia in particular may be coaxed into paying lip service to the demands of the US, but are much less likely to gravely harm their own long term investments and interests in Iran by surrendering to “Atlantic” pressures, thereby losing credibility among all the states eager to shake the Western yoke.
What is being played in Iran, as is almost always the case in international politics, is “high stakes poker” as defined by Mehbod Seraji in a Truthout article of September 29, 2009. As George Friedman puts it in an article dated October 1, entitled “The BMD decision and the Global System” : “Ultimately the question of Iran is secondary. The question of US-Russian relations is paramount”, at least to the Americans and Russians, not to mention the world at large. The obsession with Iran, induced largely by Israeli interests in US foreign policy, may eventually take second place in the priorities of the White House and the State Department, signalling a major shift in the American position towards the Jewish state.
The two factions struggling to have their respective ways in both the USA and Europe are also found within NATO, where they have been called the “Europe Firsters” (who want to reduce the Alliance to a security pact mainly dedicated to protecting the continent from external threats) and the “globalists” (who would like to carry on the dream of using it as a world policeman to expand Western hegemony).
The courses advocated by those opposite groups would lead to very different outcomes. The former may bring about a form of effective international governance by facilitating coordination between the USA, the European Union, Russia, China and emerging power centres such as India and Brazil-centric Latin America. The conservatives would like to pursue the imperial outreach project that remained almost a constant of Anglo-Saxon powers since Britain achieved far-flung preponderance in the eighteenth century.
As Parag Khanna described it at the 2009 TED conference in London, the reformers effectively want to build “silk roads,” while the imperialists wish to play the Great Game. While the first course seems vastly more appealing to all peace loving people, it is difficult to ignore the fact that, as Khanna has convincingly shown, Beijing has created and is expanding day by day a Chinese co-prosperity sphere in East and Central Asia with which it will be increasingly difficult for any other power to compete in economic terms. He noted that modern nations are not effectively conquered by force, they are bought. China effectively leased out eastern Siberia from Russia and is rapidly drowning out the scant Slavic and indigenous population of that sprawling area under a torrent of Han immigrants.
By making most countries from Australia to North Korea, and from Japan to Kazakhstan increasingly dependent, the PRC has formed a commercial empire of unsurpassed size endowed with immense resources. Against that new Athens of trade, wielding soft power with growing skill, the over-armed but insolvent and internally conflicted USA looks a bit like the Sparta of the Peloponnesian wars: a militaristic, declining oligarchic state, constantly harking back to the halcyon days of its supremacy, while becoming steadily poorer and less socially stable.
If indeed the USA follows the trumpet calls of its hawks and heeds Israeli persuasion to wage a “decisive” battle in Iran, then its decline will become precipitous, while most other states in the world will keep distance with the crumbling giant in their search for new economic and strategic agreements. Russia and China will be among the greatest beneficiaries of that suicidal move, provided anyone benefits in the end.
Alternatively, Washington rebuffs the war-mongering party and gradually abandons its colonial military ventures in Afghanistan and Iraq in order to form a new global governance compact with other great powers. The USA will still lose its predominance as the ‘sole superpower,’ but it can at least hope to remain a member of the elite group of leading nations, especially if it knows how to exploit the inevitable divergences between Russia and China, in view of the fact that Russia seriously fears losing its oriental provinces and its Central Asian sphere of influence to its Eastern neighbour. The Kremlin is therefore understandably keen to join as an equal the potential partnership between the worlds’ leading powers.
Will the USA and the other great nations follow Montesquieu’s wise advice to “ride the waves of events,” or will the American ruling elite dig in its heels and try to resist them? Historical precedents are not encouraging, but hope should never be forsaken.

The Ongoing Battle Against Scumbaggery Continues
I have encountered a new voice of illogic on CounterKnowledge, who goes by the nom de plume of GeekEngineer. His first visit to the page was to take me to task for my posting "Open-Air Fires CANNOT Melt Steel". I noticed something that I didn't immediately pounce upon, but now I'm going to. I am reposting my response to a tirade by one of the regular retards, which follows:
I'm well practiced in dealing with the reality-challenged, as you can witness here in my nearly five-month ping-pong with some maniac named Ben Plonie at the God Blog - some back-and-forth between Ben Plonie and I...I'll provide just a snippit:
You can read the rest of this scintillating exchange at The God Blog.
As always, I await your comments.
If John Thames has a “striking penis fixation”, as you assert, it may be because he has borne witness to our whore representatives sucking on so much cock, it makes him sick to his stomach. All of that uncircumsized tiny schvantze (Ron Jeremy notwithstanding) eagerly taken in the mouths of Pelosi, Hoyer, etc. - herpes and all.
GeekEngineer…I hoped for the best…ah, well. Let’s go back to your first posting here, in reference to my blog posting, http://911liarsexposed.blogspot.com/2009/09/im-attempting-to-hammer-this-point.html - you mumbled something along the lines of, and here I directly quote: “Blah blah blah… “BOMBS or similar methods”… blah blah blah… JEWS… blah blah blah…”
Hmmm…I’m just wondering…where did you find the word “JEWS” in the entirety of that posting?
I did a word find with the web browser, just in case my “hatred” was blinding me; alas, I was unable to find A SINGLE REFERENCE to “JEWS” in that posting.
Could it be that you came here with some preconceptions? I’d say so.
moRON - the one thing you’re refusing to accept is that the assassination of JFK and the attack upon Pearl Harbor are both FALSE-FLAG ATTACKS, regardless of whatever tripe is offered up by the various networks as “research”.
GeekEngineer - you’ll notice that I haven’t yet made fun of your nom de plume…but that is contingent upon your next response to me. If the best you can do is to ignore the fact that you COMPLETELY MADE UP AN ARGUMENT WITH WHICH YOU USED TO TAKE FAULT WITH MY POSTING, you will find said nom de plume mangled, as befits all scumbags.
And do yourself a favor - don’t cite NIST as an expert in anything, except maybe in inserting their collective cranial cavities into the anus of Larry “Two Sheds” Silverstein and everyone else who assisted with the murder of over 3,000 Americans. Those nitwits couldn’t even come up with a convincing lie to explain why WTC 7 collapsed.
I'm well practiced in dealing with the reality-challenged, as you can witness here in my nearly five-month ping-pong with some maniac named Ben Plonie at the God Blog - some back-and-forth between Ben Plonie and I...I'll provide just a snippit:
“Songbird” McCain will do nothing but bring about the end of Israel as we all know it - don’t think of him as a friend…he will say what he thinks will appease his audience.
Remember…he made propaganda videos for the Viet Cong to receive preferential medical treatment, while his fellow soldiers sat in pain, but divulged no information with which the United States could be harmed.
I don’t begrudge Israel’s existence, but I do begrudge the actions taken against the indigenous population therein. Please understand that “never again” means that for EVERYONE.

_____________________________________________
I cannot believe that an entity called the Jewish Journal would host the comments of anti Israel, anti-Zionist, antisemitic cockroaches like the posters above. McCain has provided the only moral clarity in this discussion and has fired a shot across the bow of the upcoming election. The democrats will be reduced to “homina-homina-homina” in the face of this statement of support for Israel.
Obama would throw Israel under the bus faster than his white grandmother. Many, many Jews will die if Obama becomes President. And many, many Arabs will die if Obama becomes President.
The USS Liberty? Are you kidding? This has been debunked many times. Either it was a mistake (based on the boat being in the wrong place at the wrong time, or a legitimate hit on a vessal coopted by the NSA to pass on Israeli troop movements to the Egyptians. [comment from hf - Phil Tourney, James Ennes, you may wish to state to the contrary to this assertion...]
Israel is as close to a US state as it is possible for another country to be. As McCain said, our shared values make it so. America was founded in the first place by people inspired by the freedom of the ancient Israelites from tyranny.
And let hanover learn the true meaning of ‘indigenous’. Jews are indigenous to Palestine/Israel, not Arabs. Period. Learn some true history.

Dr. Arthur Butz of Northwestern University called the Holocaust 'the hoax of the twentieth century' in a book of that name.
Professor Norman Finkelstein, formerly of the City University of New York, says 'The Holocaust may yet turn out to be the "greatest robbery in the history of mankind" 'in his book The Holocaust Industry (published by Verso publishers, London and New York, 2000) p 138-9).

Cruel But Necessary: Opinions In Jerusalem About The Settlements And Obama
With all the current rhetoric out of Washington regarding an Israeli settlement freeze in the West Bank and East Jerusalem, we wanted to gauge public opinion on the streets of Jerusalem on a sunny, Sunday afternoon last weekend. What we found was shocking but unsurprising. By Joseph Dana (www.josephdana.com) and Antony Loewenstein (www.antonyloewenstein.com).

An Ungrateful Nation

Please read the latest posting from Mark Glenn - In Living Color–Racism and Hatred on Full Display in the Jewish State.
Imagine that Jonathan Pollard's wife has the balls to say that America should apologize for imprisoning her scumbag husband...I'm even referring people to read a Free Republic link! But, as you'll see, not every poster there is in lockstep with the dullards at that site.
Here's an update regarding the kidnapping of the crew of The Spirit of Humanity:
7/5/09 LATEST UPDATES on the GAZA 21 and Cynthia McKinney
As of this morning, the Americans were moved to a detainment facility that is close to the airport.
FLASH: As I am writing this at 7PM EST, the latest unconfirmed reports have Cynthia McKinney returning to the US with the port of entry being NYC sometime in the late afternoon/early evening on Monday 7/6/09. Approximately 24 hours from now. Plan on a welcoming party and a press conference. GET READY! More info will be posted as soon as it is confirmed!
You can read more here:
http://www.opednews.com/articles/McKinney-Relocated-from-Is-by-Meryl-Ann-Butler-090705-681.html
**************************************
***From John Judge:
Friends,
I just got a call confirming that former Congresswoman Cynthia McKinney and three other U.S. citizens were transferred from the Israeli prison at Ramale to Ben Gurion airport in Israel, the standard site for deportations. This information came originally from Mairead Maguire, the Irish Nobel laureate and was confirmed by the US Embassy in Tel Aviv, which is sending representatives to the airport. Maguire was told that the authorities would return to take her next, but she stated she is concerned about the fate of the remaining prisoners from Yemen, Jordon, the UK, Scotland, Palestine and Denmark, and may refuse to be released until all are released.
My note:
What possible grounds do the Israelis have to release these kidnapped prisoners a few at a time? If one is released then all should be released, since none of them acted differently than the others. I have been told that the form Cynthia McKinney was asked to sign was written in Hebrew, which if true is also illegal. She refused to sign the form, in any case, and then the Israeli authorities claimed that Israeli law required her to be held an additional three days, until Monday, July 6. Her early release today may reflect the level of pressure on Israel and the U.S. authorities generated by your work. By my count, the following twelve prisoners remain in Ramale:
Othman Abufalah, Jordan
Othman is a world-renowned journalist with al-Jazeera TV.
Mansour Al-Abi, Yemen
Mansour is a cameraman with Al-Jazeera TV.
Ishmahil Blagrove, UK
Ishmahil is a Jamaican-born journalist, documentary film maker and founder of the Rice & Peas film production company. His documentaries focus on international struggles for social justice.

Alex is a solidarity worker from Britain. She is traveling to Gaza to do long-term human rights monitoring.
Denis Healey, UK
Denis is Captain of the Spirit of Humanity. This will be his fifth voyage to Gaza.
Fathi Jaouadi, UK

FROM FREE GAZA:
Some of the UK FreeGaza 21 detainees likely to be deported Monday, should arrive to Heathrow 13.30 Monday.
We have just heard that at least 3 of the 6 British FreeGaza detainees are being put on a flight to London in the morning, due to arrive at Heathrow at 13.30 p.m.
Because it is a Sunday and we have only just heard this news, we are trying to spread the word as well as we can - so we'd be really really grateful if you could forward this email to your contacts. Some relatives and supporters will be there to meet them - but we ask anyone in the London area who is able to go to the airport to meet them to do so.
We are currently unable to make contact with the group, who have been moved to cells at Ben Gurion airport detention center. Once we have confirmation that they are on the morning flight, we will post to our website:
www.freegaza.org
If you live in the London area, please try and make it down to Heathrow to meet them. We expect to have journalists at the airport to report on their deportation, and we are trying to arrange for a press conference in London for later in the afternoon.
More to follow! ... http://www.freegaza.org
And sadly...no word at all from our Commander-In-Chief.
Here are some quotations from Travis Kelly:
"I told you I'm not going to criticize my successor. I'll just tell you that there are people at Gitmo that will kill American people at a drop of a hat and I don't believe that persuasion isn't going to work. Therapy isn't going to cause terrorists to change their mind."
— George W. Bush
"It wouldn't be vintage Bush without a few hearty dollops of mangled verbiage combined with maddening factual inconsistency, now, would it? It almost makes one nostalgic for the daily brain cramps our former president used to deliver with such gruesome consistency. Well, no, actually, not really."
— William Rivers Pitt
“I’m running out of demons. I’m running out of villains. I’m down to Castro and Kim Il Sung.”
— Chairman of Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell, 1991
"When it's time to occupy some mideastern country, or to create a few dozen federal czars and authorities to protect Oblabla's waning "popularity" from any blowback, or to toss 15 TRILLION dollars to the corporations on short notice -- or to provide for their own endless junkets and benefits, including lifetime Single Payer for themselves -- "our" Congress finds the public pocket to be endlessly deep, a cornucopia providing all the miraculous loaves and fishes their milita-corporate overlords can consume."
— jhoffa
"Make no mistake about it, there will be a public option in the final bill – some form of it. We want it to be a fair level playing field, but you need something to keep the big boys honest. And the only thing that really is out there is a public option. We don’t trust the private insurance companies left to their own devices, and neither do the American people."
— Sen. Charles Schumer on Face the Nation
"For the record, neither regional health cooperatives nor state-level public plans, both of which have been proposed as alternatives, would have the financial stability and bargaining power needed to bring down health care costs."
— Paul Krugman
"It is no more meaningful to say that Stalin and George Orwell were both socialists than to observe that Martin Luther King Jr. and George Wallace were both Christians."
— Andrew O'Hehir
THE MEDIA
“You can rock the boat, but you can never say that the entire ocean is in trouble …. You cannot say: By the way, there’s something wrong with our …. system."
— Keith Olbermann
"I have been told by reporters that they will not report their own insights or contrary evaluations of the official 9/11 story, because to question the government story about 9/11 is to question the very foundations of our entire modern belief system regarding our government, our country, and our way of life."
—Air Force Colonel Karen Kwiatkowski
"Mainstream-media political journalism is in danger of becoming increasingly irrelevant, but not because of the Internet, or even Comedy Central. The threat comes from inside. It comes from journalists being afraid to do what journalists were put on this green earth to do. . . . There’s the intense pressure to maintain access to insider sources, even as those sources become ridiculously unrevealing and oversensitive. There’s the fear of being labeled partisan if one’s bullshit-calling isn’t meted out in precisely equal increments along the political spectrum... I still believe that no one is fundamentally more capable of first-rate bullshit-calling than a well-informed beat reporter—whatever their beat. We just need to get the editors, or the corporate culture, or the self-censorship – or whatever it is – out of the way.
— former Washington Post columnist Dan Froomkin
“All of the institutions we thought would protect us — particularly the press, but also the military, the bureaucracy, the Congress — they have failed. The courts . . . the jury’s not in yet on the courts. So all the things that we expect would normally carry us through didn’t. The biggest failure, I would argue, is the press, because that’s the most glaring…. You’d have to fire or execute ninety percent of the editors and executives. You’d actually have to start promoting people from the newsrooms to be editors who you didn’t think you could control. And they’re not going to do that.”
— Seymour Hersh
"There is a concerted strategy to manipulate global perception. And the mass media are operating as its compliant assistants, failing both to resist it and to expose it. The sheer ease with which this machinery has been able to do its work reflects a creeping structural weakness which now afflicts the production of our news."
— The Independent
"We live in a dirty and dangerous world. There are some things that the general public does not need to know and shouldn’t. I believe democracy flourishes when the government can take legitimate steps to keep its secrets and when the press can decide whether to print what it knows."
— former Washington Post owner Katherine Graham in speech to CIA, 1988
"Freedom of the press is guaranteed only to those who own one."
— A.J. Liebling, "The Wayward Press," New Yorker magazine
"There is no such thing, at this date of the world’s history, in America, as an independent press. You know it and I know it… The business of the Journalist is to destroy truth; To lie outright; To pervert; To vilify; To fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals for rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and or lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes."
– John Swinton, former Chief of Staff, The New York Times, circa 1880

So...Bernard Madoff has been sentenced to 150 years in prison.
Good riddance...but the problem still exists: how are WE THE PEOPLE safeguarded from his ilk in the future?
Not by putting the Federal reserve in charge, that's for bloody sure! What's that old adage regarding foxes and henhouses...?
Here's a piece by Mantiq Altayr - Zionist Bullshit - it refers to a piece written by Aron Raskas in the Baltimore Sun - please find that piece below, then go to the link above and read his quite scathing refutation of the "facts" presented.
Isn't it sad when someone can just blindly print lies, and without an adjoining comparison piece present? Well, the internet is the Great Equalizer.

Settlements are no threat
By Aron U. Raskas
June 7, 2009
As the Obama administration moves to transform Palestinian arguments about Israeli settlements into U.S. policy, an examination of the facts underlying these issues is appropriate. There may be no better place to begin than the swimming pool at Rimonim, a Jewish settlement in the heart of the West Bank.
The scene is a familiar one. Families picnicking together. Mothers yelling at children to be careful. Young children calling out to moms to watch them do dangerous things.
But it is the view from the hilltop pool that is striking. It quickly dispels many of the myths that today masquerade as dogma concerning Jewish settlements in the West Bank.
As one looks out from Rimonim, the most telling fact is what one does not see. Over the miles of rolling hills that unfold across the landscape, there is not a village, building, home or even a herd of sheep to be seen. The scene is the same at other Jewish settlements as well.
Palestinian propaganda machines have for years purveyed the myth of Israeli settlements choking Palestinian communities the way commerce and residential developments have encroached upon rural America. Yet, in reality, nothing like this exists in the largely unsettled expanses of the West Bank.
When Mark Twain walked this land in 1867, he described in his book, Innocents Abroad, this very same "deserted" and "desolate country" with its "rocky and bare" landscape. Today, despite Palestinian efforts to portray it differently, not all that much has changed outside the few towns and villages that dot the land.
Even the pro-Palestinian group Peace Now concedes that Israeli settlements - mostly bedroom communities of Jerusalem or Tel Aviv - occupy less than 3 percent of the West Bank. More than 98 percent of Palestinians already live under the jurisdiction of the Palestinian Authority, and there is no shortage of land there for Palestinian expansion.
Moreover, Israeli professionals living a suburban life with their children in the vast expanse of these territories do not threaten or harm Palestinians. Israeli checkpoints and security measures have been implemented because Palestinians have seemed more interested in destroying Israel and killing Jews than establishing an independent Palestinian state.
Nor are Jewish settlements the result of Israeli colonial aspirations. Most represent the return of the Jewish people to the cities of their ancestors. As Twain painstakingly reported, Jews have lived here since time immemorial, and a drive through these territories highlights the Jewish history - cities, tombs and other landmarks - rooted in this land.
Yet it is not just ancient history that speaks to the great Jewish legacy. The Jewish presence has been a constant right up to modern times. While many bristle at the terms "Judea" and "Samaria," dismissing them as propaganda invented by extremist "settlers" for political ends, maps, photographs, travel guides and other books have throughout history described these territories by those time-honored names. Even United Nations resolutions - including, notably, the 1947 Partition resolution - used those terms.
Given this history, the rights of the Jewish people in these lands are rich, historic and firmly enshrined. While negotiations about sharing this land may be necessary for the sake of peace, they cannot proceed from a premise that these are "Palestinian lands" or occupied "Palestinian territory." They are, at most, "disputed territories."
Indeed, the Oslo Accords firmly recognized the issue of "settlements" as one of the "final status" issues to be addressed by negotiation after other, less difficult, issues were resolved.
It is wrong for the Obama administration to now seek to prejudice that delicate issue with pronouncements adopting the Palestinian narrative and actions designed to preclude the building of additions to homes and new units necessary to accommodate natural growth in existing Jewish settlements.
The thousands of young children who frequent the Rimonim pool look to the future like children anywhere. They seek only to grow up in peace, experience the joys of youth with sufficient room in their homes and schools and, ultimately, have the right to raise families in the communities that nurtured them from birth.
There is no morally sound reason for the Obama administration to challenge these basic rights.

Daniel James Murray = Lee Harvey Oswald?
So...these ungrateful scumbags are insulting him, yet we're supposed to worry about this guy:
Man charged with threat against Obama in Utah
SALT LAKE CITY – Federal prosecutors have charged a man with making threats against President Barack Obama after he allegedly told a bank employee in Utah he was on a mission to kill the president.
The Salt Lake Tribune reported on its Web site Thursday that Daniel James Murray allegedly made the remark to a teller at a bank in St. George on May 27 as he withdrew $13,000 from an account.
Murray's whereabouts are unknown. A court affidavit says Murray is from New York and has recently been in California, Utah, Georgia, Oklahoma and possibly Texas.
The U.S. Secret Service says Murray has at least eight registered firearms, the Tribune reported.
Malcolm Wiley, a spokesman for the Secret Service in Washington, told The Associated Press he had no comment Thursday.
I was listening to 1010WINS all bloody night and all morning before work today...and EVERY TEN MINUTES, the announcement of this "threat" to President Obama was played, with new details each time...though no mention of a motive.
I think that his insistence upon a "Palestinian State" is the initiating statement that will result in an attack on his person, much like JFK and his attempts to save the dollar by removing the powers bestowed to the Federal Reserve by the quislings who should have been hung back in 1913.
I do hope that I am wrong, because all of the non-thinking individuals will act as they have been programmed to do, and the scumbags will have the initiating event for martial law.
Let us see what occurs.

The Middle East, RAID (The S.E. Johnson Product), Highlander and the Occupation of Gaza
I was conducting a morning conference when an odd sequence of events was brought to my attention. I have the radio tuned into 1010WINS, as I do every morning. There are commercials, of course, that "pay" for the news being presented, and often for products being advertised. There is a new commercial for RAID that touts its best new feature as being completely odorless. Well, since I'm certain that bug spray is inherently bad for humans, I'd prefer to know that an area has been prepared using said product...but I digress. The commercial affords the pesky insects anthropomorphous personalities, and makes allusions to "bugs not going to Heaven". Now, before the commercial ended, I mused, "Now, if my Distraction Media" claim has any validity at all, this commercial will be followed up by some item regarding the Middle East.
Why do I say this? It may not be common knowledge, but the religious texts of Judaism refer to two sets of people: Jews and goyim. Many Israeli officials have referred to the populations of the Middle East as less than human:
I may add direct quotations to this posting, if requested.
That being said...would you believe that 1010WINS played a bumper, complete with the sounds of warfare in the background, of their "effectiveness" of reporting the situation in the Middle East?
This was the 7:00 hour from this morning's broadcast. I may look for a recording of that moment. In my opinion, this was a clever segue into the events occurring in the Middle East, and how the land should be "wiped clean" of the perceived insects, the Palestinians.
Okay...so what does Highlander have to do with all of this?
Highlander, directed by Ridley Scott, starring Christopher Lambert, Sean Connery, Clancy Brown and Roxanne Hart, is one of the most fantastic movies ever created. Now here, for the purposes of purity, forget about the sequels, especially that tripe recoded on film called Highlander 2; let's deal solely with the original product. This is your classic struggle of good versus evil, except that this one is for all the marbles. The idea of the movie is that these men, chosen to fight for the fate of the universe, can only be killed by cutting off their heads; their accumulated skills and power of will then taken on by their dispatcher. It is made clear that when there are but a few of them left, they will all feel a compulsion to meet in a faraway land, where they will engage in final battle, for the Prize.
It's not 1900, by any stretch of the imagination...but then again, how many of you have actually even seen 1900, much less sat through the five hours required?
One of the rules is that their are sanctuaries where one cannot attack another. At a later point in the movie, Conner MacLeod (Christopher Lambert) and the Kurgan (Clancy Brown) meet in a church. They goad each other verbally, but they both know that this rule must be observed.
At this point, I wish to interject with a clip from Edwin M. Wright's The Great Zionist Cover-Up (physically page 61 of the PDF, labeled page 52 of the document):
Now consider the actions of the Israelis as they have once again occupied Palestine. To gain occupancy of the territory by use of the Balfour Declaration, they entered into and then broke a treaty to Britian. Now, the Kurgan, who proves himself to be the most evil, reprehensible individual ever created, won't violate such a milquetoast rule, and could've run through MacLeod from behind as he entered, and he doesn't...what does that say for a people who willfully break their word at the drop of a hat?
Okay...you may think that I'm oversimplifying things here...but let's try this from another tack.
Everyone here in favor of being against APARTHEID? No argument, right? It's still a bad thing to take over someone's land and make them slaves on their own property, right?
Why doesn't this apply to the Middle East situation?
Oh...now it's complicated, right?
So...I began thinking of other things, like the prediction of December 21, 2012, as the last day of the Mayan calendar, and, according to cognoscenti, the last day we will experience on Earth. I was also thinking about the massive amounts of malfeasance being performed against the American middle-class worker, and I thought, "...you know...if the Federal Reserve were nationalized, we could erase the 'debt' Americans have incurred, escape the fate that befell Russia, and once again be the America of our forefathers."
We may want to do all sorts of "irresponsible" things, like maybe providing a nuclear missile to Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. If the world's gonna go poof before 2013, maybe we all ought to have a big burn-off to commemorate it. Remember, Iran hasn't attacked anyone in over two hundred years. I just believe that we can engender a better situation in the Middle East with some parity established.
If these are our last moments, I certainly don't intend on wasting my remaining moments toiling for scumbags.
Why do I say this? It may not be common knowledge, but the religious texts of Judaism refer to two sets of people: Jews and goyim. Many Israeli officials have referred to the populations of the Middle East as less than human:
:evil: Jewish Talmudic Doctrine: Non-Jews are Not Humans
The Talmud specifically defines all who are not Jews as non-human animals, and specifically dehumanizes Gentiles as not being descendants of Adam. We will now list some of the Talmud passages which relate to this topic.
Menahoth 43b-44a. A Jewish man is obligated to say the following prayer every day: Thank you God :evil: for not making me a Gentile, a woman or a slave.
Kehuboth 6b. [Now] does it not mean that if he had yet no intercourse [with his wife] he may have intercourse [with her] even on Sabbath? Said Raba: No, except Sabbath. Said Abaye to him: But it says, `until the night following the Sabbath [one gives her] four nights'? Only, said Raba, when he already had intercourse [with her]. If [it were, as you say,] after he already had intercourse, what does he let us hear? He lets us hear that it is allowed to have intercourse on Sabbath, as that [statement] of Samuel [teaches], for Samuel said: One may enter into a narrow opening on Sabbath, although he causes pebbles to break loose.
Uses of Oil of Annointing. Our Rabbis have taught: He who pours the oil of anointing over cattle or vessels is not guilty; if over gentiles [Hebrew: goyim] or the dead, he is not guilty. The law relating to cattle and vessels is right, for it is written: "Upon the flesh of man [Hebrew: adam] shall it not be poured [Exodus 30:32]"; and cattle and vessels are not man [adam]. Also with regard to the dead, [it is plausible] that he is exempt, since after death one is called corpse and not a man [adam]. But why is one exempt in the case of gentiles [goyim]; are they not in the category of man [adam]?--No, it is written: "And ye my sheep, the sheep of my pasture, are man [adam] [Ezekiel 34:31]": Ye are called man [adam] but gentiles [goyim] are not called man [adam]. (Ed. but by implication, Cain),
In the above passage, the Rabbis are discussing the Mosaic law which forbids applying holy oil to men. In the discussion, the Rabbis state that it is not a sin to apply the holy oil to gentiles, since gentiles are not human beings (literally, Adam, and are by implication, Cain).
Yebamoth 61a: It was taught: And so did R. Simeon ben Yohai state [61a] that the graves of gentiles [goyim] do not impart levitical uncleanness by an ohel [standing or bending over a grave], for it is said, "And ye my sheep the sheep of my pasture, are men [adam]" [Ezekiel 34:31]; you are called men [adam] but the idolaters are not called men [adam].
The Mosaic law states that touching a human corpse or grave imparts uncleanness to those who touch it. But the Talmud here teaches that if a Jew touches the grave of a gentile, it does not make him unclean, since gentiles are not human (literally, Adam).
Baba Mezia 114b: Said he [Rabbah] to him: Art thou not a priest: why then dost thou stand in a cemetery? - He replied: Has the Master not studied the laws of purity? For it has been taught: R. Simeon ben Yohai said: The graves of gentiles [goyim] do not defile, for it is written, "And ye my flock, the flock of my pastures, are men [adam]" [Ezekiel 34:31]; only ye are designated men [Adam].
A Jewish priest was standing in a graveyard. When asked why he was standing there in apparent violation of the Mosaic law, he replied that it was permissible, since the law only prohibits Jews from coming into contact with the graves of humans [adam], and he was standing in a gentile graveyard.
Since the so-called Scriptural proof text (Ezekiel 34:31) repeatedly cited in the above three Talmud passages in reality does not prove that only Jews are human, it is self-evident that the Talmudic sages who asserted the preceding absurdities about Gentiles were already anti-Gentile racists or ideologues who, in desperate search of some proof of their position, distorted an Old Testament passage in order to justify their bigotry. Their ideology came first, their "proof" second.
Berakoth 58a R. Shila administered lashes to a man who had intercourse with an Egyptian woman. The man went and informed against him to the Government, saying: There is a man among the Jews who passes judgment without the permission of the Government. An official was sent to [summon] him. When he came he was asked: Why did you flog that man? He replied: Because he had intercourse with a she-ass.
They said to him: Have you witnesses? He replied: I have. Elijah thereupon came in the form of a man and gave evidence. They said to him: If that is the case he ought to be put to death! He replied: Since we have been exiled from our land, we have no authority to put to death; do with him what you please.
While they were considering his case, R. Shila exclaimed, "Thine, Oh Lord, is the greatness and the power" [1 Chronicles 29:11] What are you saying? they asked him. He replied: What I am saying is this: Blessed is the All-Merciful who has made the earthly royalty on the model of the heavenly, and has invested you with dominion, and made you lovers of justice.
They said to him: Are you so solicitous for the honor of the Government? They handed him a staff and said to him: You may act as judge. When he went out that man said to him: Does the All-Merciful perform miracles for liars?
He replied: Wretch! Are they not called asses? For it is written: "Whose flesh is as the flesh of asses" [Ezekiel 23:20]. He noticed that the man was about to inform them that he had called them asses. He said: This man is a persecutor, and the Torah has said: If a man comes to kill you, rise early and kill him first. So he struck him with the staff and killed him. He then said: Since a miracle has been wrought for me through this verse, I will expound it."
Our apologies for subjecting our readers to the preceding lengthy Talmudic drivel, but it is best to include all of it to demonstrate its depravity.
In addition to having Elijah float down from heaven to deceive the Gentile court, the Talmud teaches that Gentiles are in reality animals, hence Rabbi Shila (and Elijah) did not really lie at all. It also teaches that anyone (even a Jewish man) who reveals this Talmud truth about non-Jews deserves execution, since revealing it makes Gentiles angry and causes persecution of the Jews.
We can only rejoice that the majority of Jews today do not follow such heinous teachings; only a few openly espouse the Talmud as divinely inspired, although unfortunately these few are sometimes to be found in influential leadership positions.
(Parenthetically, the above Scripture proof-text cited by the rabbis, does not prove that Gentiles are not human, being animals. The passage from Ezekiel in the Bible only says that some Egyptians had large sex organs and copious emissions. This does not in any way prove or even connote that the Egyptians being referred to in the Bible were considered animals).
Having sufficiently proven our point from the Talmud, namely that the Talmud teaches that Gentiles are not human [Hebrew: Adam], and are really animals, we will list a few other passages which expound on the Ezekiel 23:20 "proof text", allowing our readers to research them on their own: Arakin 19b, Berakoth 25b, Niddah 45a, Shabbath 150a, Yebamoth 98a.
The original text of Sanhedrin 37a applies God's approval only to the saving of Jewish lives. This is demonstrable by referring to Jewish books such as the Hesronot Ha-shas.
I may add direct quotations to this posting, if requested.

At this point, I wish to interject with a clip from Edwin M. Wright's The Great Zionist Cover-Up (physically page 61 of the PDF, labeled page 52 of the document):
A post card signed "J C Stern" and addressed to Edwin M. Wright, Advisor to Dulles, Washington D.C. and postmarked Los Angeles May 21, 1956, states
"We know you well and class you with Hitler. As long as there is a world there will be Israel and the Jews. Spit your hate and see how far you get."
Lest you get some brickbats intended for me - I'm sending this explanation. Harry Howard is responsible! His wife arranged for the briefing of the AAUW. I gave a 53 "global survey" in which discussions of NE problems were very brief. I doubt if I spent over 10 minutes on the whole NEA area. Evidently the Bible is a dangerous book to quote. In the wrong hands, it can be alleged to show that when the Jews repeatedly reoccupied Palestine, they were not very kind to the older and local inhabitants.
I have always been fascinated with historical geography. During the four years with G-2 U.S. Armed Forces in the Middle East (U.S.A.F.I.M.E.), I teamed up with a friend - Rabbi Nelson Glueck, one of the foremost Reform Jewish Rabbis and an outstanding scholar. He was operating under "cover" for the O.S.S., where I first met him as a colleague in 1941-42. In Palestine I toured with him weekends and put history and geography together. In 1956, I organized a Training Tour of three months for 30 U.S. government officers who worked on Middle Eastern affairs. We visited each state in the area for a week or more where we interviewed leaders in government, the press, business, etc., and I was "Lecturer" in visiting historic spots. We spent eight to ten days in Israel.
The first trip in 1956 brought me into close contact with the Orthodox Rabbinate. Rabbi Yacov Herzog, the son of the former Rabbi Herzog (from Ireland), Chief Rabbi of the Ashkenazi Jews, was in charge of the American section of the Israeli Foreign Office. He was in charge of the two days we spent in Jerusalem. He was so Orthodox he would not shake hands with a woman (and we had several), he would not write on the Sabbath, nor would he answer the telephone on the Sabbath. He appointed Rabbi Pinhas Eliav as our Escort Officer for touring Israel. We hired a bus and went to Beersheba, Galilee, Haifa, and other regions where we visited Kibbutzim, factories, schools, 54 etc., so as to get the "feel" of Israel. At all times Rabbi Pinhas, also an Orthodox Rabbi, was with us.
As a result of my studies and experience, I came to be highly suspicious of the word "Orthodox" which means "Right-thought." It assumes that any difference of opinion is "Wrong-thought." While in Iraq, in 1921-23, I had visited Sir Leonard Woolley's excavations at Ur, one of the ancient city States of the Sumerians. Professor James B. Pritchard's two books Archaeology and the Old Testament and The Ancient Near East place side by side passages from Sumerian literature - with other passages from the Old Testament - indicating how the writers of the latter borrowed from the former. The story of Noah is a paraphrase of parts of the Gilgamesh Epic, and the birth of Moses is an almost exact duplicate of the myth of the birth of Sargon of Akkad who lived about 2150 B.C. The Orthodox Rabbinate in Israel insist that the Torah and Taanach are of Divine Origin, inerrant, infallible, and immutable, and any one who disagrees is an enemy trying to destroy the Will of God. This makes communication between the Orthodox and anyone not Orthodox almost impossible.
Having an Orthodox Rabbi listening to every word I said was both awkward and embarrassing. His responsibility was to indoctrinate us in the Orthodox tradition; mine was to try to describe what I believed had actually happened in history. We often came to embarrassing confrontations on many occasions. For instance, in riding down from Jerusalem to Beersheba, we went down the Valley of Sorek. The bus had a loud-speaker which I used to explain the story of Samson and Delilah in the book of Judges. I pointed out the name Samson is the Hebrew-Arabic name for Sun, and Delilah means, "She 55 of the Night" - that this story belonged to the early folk-hero legends of Israel which corresponded to the folk-hero tales of all cultures - the Iliad and Odyssey of the Greeks, the Prometheus myth, the Heracles-Hercules myth, the Osiris-Usus-Set myth in Egypt, the Tammuz Sumerian-Babylonian myth, and the Rustam hero tales of early Iran. These myths are personifications of the forces of nature. Among the most popular such myths was that of the Sun God rising in power in the morning, but in the evening dying in the west, lured to its death by the Goddess of the Night. I made reference to Joseph Campbell's book The Hero of a Thousand Faces and his four volume The Masks of God and urged them to read these books. Rabbi Pinhas was furious.
But the showdown came when we were in Carmiel (above Haifa). It is now a purely Jewish town, and non-Jews are prohibited renting, owning or working in the area, though previous to 1948, there were three Arab villages there, whose lands had been confiscated and turned over to the Jewish National Fund. Fouzi el Asmar in his book To Be An Arab In Israel (page 44:107-8) describes how he was shunned when he was invited by a friend to visit in this purely Jewish town - as it is now.
I felt it was important our group understand Israeli land laws. After lunch, I took the group to a lookout point and gave a talk on the history of the northwest Galilee. Pointing to the east, there lies the small stream and plain where the fold-heroine Jael pounded a tent peg through the head of the Philistine Sisera while he was asleep in her tent. (Judges 4.) We were standing on the spot where Elijah slew 2,000 priests of Baal after his divine miracle. To the north we could see the mountains of Lebanon - at the time of Solomon 56 the source of the timber for building the Temple in Jerusalem. To get that timber, Solomon, among his thousand wives, probably married a pagan daughter of Hiram, King of Tyre, and ceded several villages to Tyre. He then intensified corvee (forced) labor upon the Hebrews to cut and transport the timber to Jerusalem. It was this forced labor which brought on a revolt of the northern tribes against the son of Solomon - Jereboam - and forever destroyed Hebrew unity.
Rabbi Pinhas could not contain his anger and said my story was not true. That evening we were at the U.S. Consulate in Haifa for an outdoor dinner, and I asked for a Bible. I read from I Kings 5 to substantiate my story. This was humiliating to Rabbi Pinhas, and he was later to get his revenge. It had another effect. The 30 officers in the course became very suspicious about everything they were told by Israelis and would ask me afterwards, "What's the truth?" Rabbi Pinhas's revenge was to go to Rabbi Herzog and Teddy Kolleck. He complained that I had insulted him and Israel and made it impossible for him to get the Israeli point of view across. The result was a visit to the U.S. Embassy in Tel Aviv by a delegation of two, who asked the Ambassador to inform the State Department I was persona non grata in Israel. The Ambassador recommended that I should not be sent to Israel in the future. Fortunately for me, the Ambassador left after 1957 and Ogden Reed of New York was the new Ambassador. There was also a new Deputy - my former Chief in the office of Greek, Turkish and Iranian affairs - William Baxter. Bill knew Turkish and had taught at Robert College, Istanbul. He well knew me and the whole 57 story, so in 1958 and following years, I was again allowed to enter Israel - but cautioned not to irritate the Rabbis!!
Rabbi Yacov Herzog later appeared in the Israeli Embassy in Washington. As a concession to the Gentile practice of shaking hands with women, he decided he would do so for public relations purposes. But the attack on me from the Orthodox Rabbinate in the U.S. entered high gear.
The pretext for the next attack upon me developed out of a talk I gave at the National Presbyterian Church. I had recently returned from a three months study tour of the Middle East, and my friend Reverend Ed Elson, the Pastor, also President Eisenhower's Pastor, asked me to give a report on my visit. It was a tense time. By a conspiracy, Israel, France and Great Britain had launched an attack upon Egypt two weeks before, and the headlines were focused on the Suez Canal. I spoke for an hour reporting my findings on Turkey, Iran, and Israel, as well as four Arab states. In the audience was Mrs. Lillian Levy, a Jewish reporter. My talk was factual, and I tried to avoid controversial statements - and succeeded. Then came the question and answer period. A Presbyterian minister in the audience asked me, "What part is religion playing in the modern Middle East?" In my reply I said that the Middle East had never had a Renaissance like Europe in the 15th-17th Centuries. Therefore to understand religious passions, it was necessary to recall what happened in Europe. The shift from religious wars to secular national wars came in the Thirty Years War 1618-1648. The Middle East was in that same shift now. Turkey had only become a national secular state under Kemal Ataturk during 1923-1928. Lebanon was in form secular but in fact a balance of 58 religious minorities. All other states were in the throes of religious change which had produced violent internal movements of three kinds - (1) Reactionary, (2) Evolutionary, and (3) Revolutionary. The Reactionary were interested in the preservation of theocratic traditions and institutions and are afraid of secular, scientific, and national forces. In Europe, it was the clash of the Papacy vs. Copernicus, Galileo, and the Reformers. Judaism in Spain had witnessed the same phenomenon earlier. The Arab schools had introduced Greek rationalism especially in Cordova. The greatest of Jewish scholars, Moses Maimonides, had been attacked because he had followed the rational theories of Ibn Rushd, and an extreme Orthodox sect had ex-communicated him. These reactionary groups were now represented in the Islamic world by such groups as the Ikhwan - el Muslimeen, the Mollah Kashani Fidayeen in Iran and the Orthodox Rabbinate in Israel.
But I expressed the opinion that the Middle East would repeat the European mode. The future of the Middle East depended upon its mastery of technology and the scientific world view. In this, the various orthodoxies, which emphasized a static and nostalgic effort to preserve the past - rituals and social customs - had little to contribute to what was an explosive situation. The Middle East was trying to move from centuries- old stagnation to a new dynamic form of society in one generation.
Mrs. Lillian Levy is a creative journalist. By selecting a few phrases and adding some statements I did not make, she published a pseudo-report of my talk. Her report was like the hunters' trumpet for the Zionists and Orthodox to unleash their bloodhounds and track the victim. Mrs. Levy appointed herself 59 a one woman inquisition and tried to get interviews with everyone in my office. There were some young Jewish Foreign Service officers in the orientation course, where I lectured on the Middle East. She got their names and invited them out to lunch to quiz them about me. I was living then in McLain, Virginia. Odd characters claiming they were investigating me as an insurance applicant asked my neighbors about my habits - what did I do over weekends? Did I get drunk? Did I have a wild sex life? My neighbors asked me what was going on. Unfortunately for Mrs. Levy's bloodhounds, my sex life is very dull, and I am almost, but not quite, a teetotaler in relation to alcohol. But the Jewish Telegraph Agency - with Milton Friedman to the fore - took up the hue and cry as shown on the following pages.
An anonymous correspondent living in Los Angeles sent me a clipping from the California Jewish Voice of December 7, 1956. He had liberally decorated it with interpolations such as "Aw Nuts," "Jewish Insolence" and sent it without any return address - a kind of mail I began to anticipate. It was as follows:
U.S. JEWISH GROUPS ASK STATE DEPARTMENT TO OUST ITS ANTI- SEMITIC LECTURER.
New York (J.T.A.) Protesting the "warped and bigoted" anti-Semitic speech delivered recently by Edwin Wright, a high official of the State Department, the American Jewish Congress appealed this week, to the department, "publicly to repudiate his statements." The A.C.J. also called for the removal of Mr. Wright from any position of influence or authority within the State Department. A similar demand was made earlier by the Agudas Israel of America in letters addressed to President Eisenhower and to Secretary of State John Foster Dulles.
In a letter to Herbert Hoover, the Acting Secretary of State, Judge Justine A. Polier, Chairman of the American Jewish Congress Executive Committee deplored the "incredible" anti-Jewish remarks made by Mr. Wright, Assistant Dean of the Foreign Service Institute of the State Department, in a 60 speech delivered at the National Presbyterian Church in Washington on November 1 (1956).
The Department of State, Judge Polier said, is under an obligation to rectify the wrong that has been done and not only to dis-associate itself from Mr. Wright's remarks but publicly to repudiate his statements in a manner that will make it unmistakable they have no place in American public life and play no role in the determination of American public policy. This should be followed by the removal of Mr. Wright from a position of influence or authority within the State Department.
The Agudas Israel letter stated, "It is unthinkable that a government official should permit himself to so callously malign the millions of Agudas Israel citizens of the Orthodox Jewish faith who have made their productive contribution to every phase of American life. The glorious service to mankind rendered by American citizens who observe their faith and proved their loyalty to our beloved country is a matter of public record. Their religious faith had often been the source of inspiration that enables the American Jews to develop their manifold contributions for the betterment of society.
I had no idea who Judge Polier was, but it interested me that a U.S. Judge had condemned me on the basis of hearsay evidence- especially when Milton Friedman was working for the Jewish Telegraph Agency. So I tried to discover who this irate lady was - and was told she was the daughter of Rabbi Stephen Wise. If so, that explained everything. It was the Father who threatened Truman that unless he supported the Zionist program, "Truman would be run out of town." Now it was the daughter, ignoring all rules of a Law Court, using her position to run me out of the State Department. I decided the emotional quality of the Father was inherited by the daughter - "Like Father - Like Daughter."
I am most grateful that I live as a citizen in a society which developed its Law from the Graeco-Roman model - no the Jewish one. As an example, Numbers 5:11 starts with the phrase "And the Lord spoke unto Moses saying." Then follows a passage about how a jealous husband deals with a wife of whom he is suspicious. The procedure is pure Voodoo-Magic found in all primitive 61 peoples - yet here it is specifically attributed to God. Because "western law" is largely Graeco-Roman, the State of Israel has never adopted the principle "God is no respecter of persons" a thesis which appears in Acts 10:34. This is the absolute opposite of the belief in a Chosen People. So in Israel today - Goyim are administered by the British Emergency Regulations of 1945, as applied by the Police or the Military. When Judge Polier took for granted my guilt, being accused by Milton Friedman, she was acting like a Judge in Israel.
But in the U.S.A. I had a chance to give my side of the story. So I went to five who were in the audience that night, showed them the Milton Friedman article and asked them to give their reactions. The accusation fell apart. (The correspondence on this case is in the Appendix #6.)
I was fortunate in my friends. The Reverend Ed Elson went directly to the White House, spoke to President Eisenhower and Maxwell Rabb, and gave the whole story. In the Foreign Service Institute, my Director was Harold L. Hoskins. His father was a missionary doctor in Lebanon. He was born in Syria. In 1942-45 he had served as a Special Representative of President Roosevelt. He spoke fluent Arabic, and while he was in Egypt in 1943-45, in charge of Lend Lease, we had enjoyed close personal relationships. He had come under attack because of his "Arabic" background, so he well knew Zionist tactics. He refused to give Mrs. Levy an interview and told other members of the staff to avoid her. He finally got out a statement which was issued by Public Relations if anyone inquired about me. After some two months, the effort to remove me from the State Department died down. It was fortunate this incident occurred during the Eisenhower Presidency. Eisenhower was greatly irritated 62 by the Israeli-U.K.- French aggression against Egypt and ordered Israel out of the Sinai with the threat of economic sanctions if they did not withdraw. Both Eisenhower and Dulles came under Zionist attack, and possibly Eisenhower recollected I had been his briefing officer in the Pentagon when he became Chief of Staff in 1946. I had also been Escort Officer and Interpreter between President Eisenhower and President Bayar of Turkey.
Whatever the facts may be, I was not fired! In fact, quite the opposite. Many people, unsolicited, came to my defense, and in 1964, I was granted a Superior Merit Award by the Department. One of my close colleagues was somewhat jealous. His complaint was he said practically what I said, but the Zionists never attacked him. He felt he must not be of sufficient importance to be attacked. I told him to take comfort. The difference between us was that I quoted the Bible and that stung the Zionists to the quick. Gentiles are not supposed to know the Bible. They are to believe it as God's Holy Word - but not know what it contained. This colleague is Harry N. Howard, a distinguished scholar and author of several books, and a fellow worker with me in the Department of State for over 20 years. (10)
The type of Zionist attack on State Department officers received great impetus when President Truman himself joined in the attack. He diverted the Zionist threats against him by turning them against his own Departmental officers. And it worked. Truman was elected by a narrow majority. He Also the author of The King-Crane Report and The Partition of Turkey. (10) 63 got Jewish funds, 80 per cent of the Jewish vote, and great praise. The Zionists had smelled blood in the case of Loy Henderson and were now out after others of his staff.
Now consider the actions of the Israelis as they have once again occupied Palestine. To gain occupancy of the territory by use of the Balfour Declaration, they entered into and then broke a treaty to Britian. Now, the Kurgan, who proves himself to be the most evil, reprehensible individual ever created, won't violate such a milquetoast rule, and could've run through MacLeod from behind as he entered, and he doesn't...what does that say for a people who willfully break their word at the drop of a hat?
Okay...you may think that I'm oversimplifying things here...but let's try this from another tack.
Everyone here in favor of being against APARTHEID? No argument, right? It's still a bad thing to take over someone's land and make them slaves on their own property, right?
Why doesn't this apply to the Middle East situation?
Oh...now it's complicated, right?
So...I began thinking of other things, like the prediction of December 21, 2012, as the last day of the Mayan calendar, and, according to cognoscenti, the last day we will experience on Earth. I was also thinking about the massive amounts of malfeasance being performed against the American middle-class worker, and I thought, "...you know...if the Federal Reserve were nationalized, we could erase the 'debt' Americans have incurred, escape the fate that befell Russia, and once again be the America of our forefathers."
We may want to do all sorts of "irresponsible" things, like maybe providing a nuclear missile to Iranian President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. If the world's gonna go poof before 2013, maybe we all ought to have a big burn-off to commemorate it. Remember, Iran hasn't attacked anyone in over two hundred years. I just believe that we can engender a better situation in the Middle East with some parity established.
If these are our last moments, I certainly don't intend on wasting my remaining moments toiling for scumbags.
