The Ashkenazo-zionist Agenda and the Scorecard of the Zionist Power Configuration for 2008

The Israeli Agenda openly defended, publically practiced and aggressively pursued by the Zionist power configuration (ZPC) has greatly influenced the US Presidential elections and the likely future course of Washington’s Middle East policy.

Picture:
US Ashkenazo-zionist magazine, ‘Heeb’, shows ‘How to cook a gentile’ cartoons, February 2008.

The strategy of the Jewish state is the complete Zionization of Palestine, the takeover of land, water, offshore gas (estimated to be worth $4 billion dollars) and other economic resources and the total dispossession of the Palestinian people. Tel Aviv’s tactics have included daily military assaults, giant walls ghettoizing entire Palestinian towns, military outposts and controls undermining commerce and production to force bankruptcy, poverty, severe deprivation and population flight. The second priority of the Israeli colonial state is to bolster the Jewish state’s political and military supremacy in the Middle East, using preposterous arguments of ‘survival’ and ‘existential threats’. The key postulate of Israeli Middle East policy is to destroy or intimidate the principle adversaries of its Zionization of Palestine and its expansionist Middle East policy. In pursuit of that policy, it invaded southern Lebanon to destroy Hezbollah, bombing neighborhoods and critical infrastructure in Beirut and other cities, bombed Syria as a provocation.

Zionist control of America virtually complete

Print & pdf

By Dick Fojut

Zionist FlagNow we know Zionists have taken near complete control of America exactly as Ariel Sharon boasted.

At very least, Zionists control America’s Foreign Policy whenever Zionist-dominated Israeli interests are concerned. Zionist Christians and Zionist Jews dominate both political parties in the Congress, as well as the overall direction and policies coming from the Bush-Cheney White House. They do so through awesome financial leverage and sheer numbers … as well as far more dark and evil mechanisms such as Zionist Israel’s thermonuclear blackmail of America as it is clearly described in a formal US Air Force paper which every American should read very carefully at:

http://www.rense.com/general35/isrnuk.htm. Facts are facts.

In an Israeli cabinet meeting shortly after the 911 (False Flag) “Terror” attacks (which benefited the State of Israel, Larry Silverstein’s bank account and the Globalist agenda of stripping away our Constitutional rights with the absurdly-named ‘Patriot’ Act), Hebrew radio Kol Yisrael on Oct. 2, 2001, reported Shimon Perez cautioned Ariel Sharon not to upset Americans.

The Three Trillion Dollar War

Print & pdf

The cost of the Iraq and Afghanistan conflicts have grown to staggering proportions

By Joseph Stiglitz and Linda Bilmes

onedaycost.jpgThe Bush Administration was wrong about the benefits of the war and it was wrong about the costs of the war. The president and his advisers expected a quick, inexpensive conflict. Instead, we have a war that is costing more than anyone could have imagined.

The cost of direct US military operations - not even including long-term costs such as taking care of wounded veterans - already exceeds the cost of the 12-year war in Vietnam and is more than double the cost of the Korean War.

And, even in the best case scenario, these costs are projected to be almost ten times the cost of the first Gulf War, almost a third more than the cost of the Vietnam War, and twice that of the First World War. The only war in our history which cost more was the Second World War, when 16.3 million U.S. troops fought in a campaign lasting four years, at a total cost (in 2007 dollars, after adjusting for inflation) of about $5 trillion (that’s $5 million million, or £2.5 million million). With virtually the entire armed forces committed to fighting the Germans and Japanese, the cost per troop (in today’s dollars) was less than $100,000 in 2007 dollars. By contrast, the Iraq war is costing upward of $400,000 per troop.

Rest In Peace, Neoconservatism

TS Admin : Is Neoconservatism dying?

By Ethan Porter

 

neocons_group_.jpgThey Knew They Were Right documents the rise and fall of the neoconservatives, and offers progressives an important foreign policy lesson.

In the fall of 2006, I attended a curious question and answer session with a group of political candidates in upstate New York. You know how these things work: Voters can ask anything, and the candidates reply in the hope of winning their support. One middle-aged woman well known for her liberal sympathies stood up and asked, in the most passionate of tones, how the candidates were going to prevent the “neocons” from wreaking further havoc upon the outside world. The catch, of course, is that the assembled candidates were all running for local office, and neoconservatism has very little to say about zoning ordinances and bicycle trails. But as the woman’s red face and the audience’s applause made clear, in the liberal imagination, nothing looms as a larger villain.

By writing They Knew They Were Right: The Rise of the Neocons, Jacob Heilbrunn, a senior editor at National Interest-a magazine founded by neoconservative grandfather Irving Kristol-has performed an invaluable service. He has brought the left’s phantom menace down to size. In readable, highly compelling prose, Heilbrunn dives into the wreckage of what was once a vastly influential political-intellectual movement but today is widely derided by all comers, including former proud members. He comes back with an epic story and a useful lesson for progressives today.

An Open Letter to Bill O’Reilly

Print & pdf

By Jason Miller

bin-reilly-factor-small.jpgDear Bill,

This is a note from an American radical.

We are few in number, but we do exist.

Time and again we’ve watched you bully your victims (or “guests” as you duplicitously refer to them) from your secure little perch high atop the food chain of craven and mendacious propagandists dutifully maintaining the pernicious lies that perpetuate the moral retardation and turpitude of this nation. You are a truly despicable human being. And by the way, Bill, characterizing you as a human being is a sign of our generosity and open-mindedness.

[As an aside, just what did Fox give you in exchange for your soul, Bill? Hopefully it was worth it because you are so deeply complicit in maintaining the mind *uck that enables your masters amongst the power elite to continue annihilating millions of sentient beings and destroying the planet via naked imperialism, neocolonialism, resource exploitation, factory farming, and a plethora of other evils.]

Crusade of Surge and Siege: Part One of Three

Homeland Born and Bred

By Manuel Valenzuela

am-emp.jpgSojourn into the outer recesses of a nation bordering on madness, into a land deeply disturbed and emotionally bewildered, a world of anti-intellectualism and anti-rationalism, of fanaticism and fundamentalism, entering a case study into fantasyland and escapism, taking a pilgrimage into realms both of purposeful ignorance and blindness, of electing lifelong incompetents based on wanting to have a beer with them, of walking through the dark valley of indifference, climbing the monolithic mountain of hubris, finally reaching the hallowed halls of smoke and mirrors, a place where only the blind lead the blind and where the deafening roars of death and destruction are easily suppressed in delusion and denial. Journey, if you will, into a nation that lost its moral compass inside dungeons of fear and hatred.

The People Speak

Print & pdf

By Aasim Sajjad Akhtar

pakistan-elections.jpgPakistan has not had many elections in its 60 year history, and those that have taken place have typically been mired by various irregularities. Arguably this election has been the most dubious of all; for almost a year the sitting regime has attempted to coerce, co-opt and manipulate its way to an outcome of its liking. On election day, it became apparent just how elaborate pre-poll rigging was — many who went to vote found that they were among the approximately 15 million registered voters who were arbitrarily removed from official rolls; meanwhile 7 million enjoyed duplicate votes. Then there was the relatively low turnout. Whether because of fear or disillusionment, a majority of Pakistanis did not come out to vote (although it is worth noting that in recent elections low turnouts have been the norm.

Battle for God; Battleground Pakistan

Print & pdf

It is a battle for God and the battleground is Pakistan.

By Anwaar Hussain

 

terrorist.jpgThe killing frenzy in Pakistan has reached a feverish pitch. In a rapidly darkening scarlet hue, the extremists are marching on suicide-bombing, beheading and maiming innocent citizens on their bloody path to their murky goal. The naive victims, out of their love for their religion and lack of knowledge of the same, not only cannot tell the difference between the killers and the messiahs, sometimes they indeed sympathize with their executioners. It is a battle for God and the battleground is Pakistan.

Perhaps a time has finally come to call a spade a spade.

By their terror strikes the extremists aim to inspire horror in Pakistan so that she bows her head meekly beneath the brutal yoke of the radicals. It is high time to take cognizance of the fearsome conditions upon which their tyrannical power wants to raise and maintain itself. It is time to see that it is in the name of religion that all oppressors act, only in name. They invoke it, yet they violate it. These extremists are no different.

It is time to tell the killers that they will never succeed because we know who they are and what they stand for. It is time we unmask for all who are watching, the hideous contours of their ghoulish facades.

Ron Paul, Dennis Kucinich and the Weight of Empire

Print & pdf

From Smoke and Mirrors

TS Admin : What a poignant piece of writing. TS said the same in ‘Happy New Year and Row on you Galley Slaves’ but not many paid attention at the time.

pres.jpgTo say that I was surprised would be an understatement; when I heard Ron Paul was scaling back his campaign and closed out any possibility of an independent run. WTF?

You see, I had assumed his candidacy was not his own but that it belonged to his supporters; that he was just the standard bearer. Suddenly… just like that… lights out. It sank under the radar the same way his campaign stayed off the radar and everything just kept going on the way it was going on.

Then I see that Dennis Kucinich backed off of his impeachment effort, shortly after a visit from AIPAC and sundry. Word has it they guaranteed his seat in the next round. Was his seat in danger? Does that matter? Did this visit influence his choice? I don’t know that either. What I do know is that there is no honorable reason for him to have backed off. Either he had his price or someone told him they knew where his family lived. I don’t buy the re-election support thing. It sounds like something they cooked up to hide the offer he couldn’t refuse.

Anti-imperialism: what’s in a name?

Print & pdf

By *Richard Phillips

 

imp1.jpgAnti-war activists have not always embraced the rhetoric of anti-imperialism. Richard Phillips examines the many meanings of that slippery term and asks whether it is still relevant in describing today’s unequal and often violent world.

In summer 2003, Tariq Ali, Tony Benn and other leading figures in Stop the War Coalition published a ‘guide for the movement’ boldly titled Anti-imperialism. The subject was more controversial than might have first appeared.

When the Stop the War Coalition was founded in late 2001, some activists proposed that resistance to imperialism should be formalised in its constitution, but their motions were defeated, not only in London but in other meetings in cities such as Cardiff. Persuasive and empowering to some, ‘anti-imperialism’ seems problematic to others. Who was - and is - talking about imperialism and can the term be usefully deployed by the anti-war movements? New research undertaken by the University of Liverpool has attempted to find out some of these answers.
