Deductive Logic

August 31, 2006 by

Every morning, noon and evening when I turn on my computer and go to download my email it never fails that contained within the usual volume of messages are the now standard notices which I receive from my website telling me that I have received comments on certain articles posted to my site.

First off this is unusual seeing as I have my site set up so that only registered users are supposed to be able to post comments. All these comments come from an assortment of porn sites and none of them have registered to post. Now it is also an acknowledged fact that the porn industry is owned and operated by Jewish interests.

Secondly, the volume of spam postings bears a direct relationship to the number of articles that I do post which are critical of Israeli policies and Zionism in general.

And so I deduce from that a simple fact. Zionism is at the root of all this illegal activity. Am I being logical?

FDA Approves Spraying Of Viruses On Our Food Supply

FDA Approves Spraying Of Viruses On Our Food Supply

By Byron J. Richards, CCN
8-28-6

On Friday, August 18, 2006, the FDA approved a viral cocktail to be sprayed on foods we eat. This is the first time viruses have been approved for use as food additives. The FDA wants you to believe it will be safe to consume these viruses every day for the rest of your life with no adverse health effects. This is a monumental announcement by the FDA, indicating they are throwing all caution to the wind regarding the safety of our food supply.

Are you willing to stand in line for a virus-laden sandwich? How do you like the idea of buying virus-infested food for your family? The first virally contaminated foods entering our food supply with the blessings of the FDA will be luncheon meat and poultry. Live viruses will be sprayed on foods such as cold cuts, sausages, hot dogs, sliced turkey, and chicken.

At issue is the very real problem of a poor quality FDA-approved food supply that is already full of diseased and sickly animals, many of them imported from other countries. The use of antibiotics during growth and radiation during food processing is required by the fast-food animal farms owned by multi-national companies to cover up the horrendous health of the animals they wish to feed to Americans. Animals in poor health are a friendly place for bacteria to grow and prosper, especially after such meat goes to market. Rather than address the source of the problem, the FDA wants to add another adulteration into our food supply.

NANAIMO SHERIFFS BEAT INNOCENT MAN – AGAIN

NANAIMO SHERIFFS BEAT INNOCENT MAN – AGAIN
by David-Kevin: Lindsay
dklfree@gmail.com

As most of you are aware, I have had a serious issue with the proliferance of Gestapo Searches at virtually all courthouses in every province, with some minor exceptions.

Myself and a friend were quite successful in having the Manitoba Court of Appeal rule these searches to be contrary to s. 8 of the Charter (when I still relied on that about 8 years ago!). It appears that every province including Manitoba simply ignore this.

Manitoba then rammed through legislation in 3 days (a record?) to put them back up, coupled with a mandatory 6 month jail sentence for anyone who wilfully goes through without being searched, no defences are allowed. This is called an absolute liability offence coupled with imprisonment, a situation which the SCC held as being unconstitutional almost 20 years ago. Yet the Manitoba Legislature just ignores this at will.

Here in Kelowna, the Sheriffs have repeatedly assaulted me for refusing to permit them to search my knapsack, finally culmnating with Sheriff (K)ooper putting the boots to my face while Sheriff Bruce Smith held me pinned to the ground. Of course, cameras conveniently missed this viscious assault.

On my first appearance to see Tim Madden in court in Nanaimo, Sheriffs refused to permit me to enter without being searched, jailed me for an hour and released me with no charges being laid. 6 Sheriffs then barricaded all entrances to the courthouse denying me my constitutional right of ” free, unimpeded and interrupted access” to the courts of injustice. (SCC)

About 2 weeks ago, a more serious incident took place in Nanaimo. [Read more...]

The ‘Spade’ Digging up the Middle East

The NEWS,

Dear Editor;

With sincere enthusiasm I can agree with our local MP, James Lunney on his point that “sometimes you have to call a spade a spade.” Okay. Let’s cut to the chase. The ‘spade’ in the Middle East War OF Terror is money.

A surprizingly honest Hollywood portrayal of this common truth was a recent movie, “Lord of War”. Anyone really wanting to understand the relentless suffering in the world need only watch this movie to be confronted with this soul shaking reality. . War is profitable.

The Big Lie About ‘Islamic Fascism’

The Big Lie About ‘Islamic Fascism’
By Eric Margolis

08/29/06 “Lew Rockwell” — – The latest big lie unveiled by Washington’s neoconservatives are the poisonous terms, “Islamo-Fascists” and “Islamic Fascists.” They are the new, hot buzzwords among America’s far right and Christian fundamentalists.

President George W. Bush made a point last week of using “Islamofacists” when recently speaking of Hezbullah and Hamas – both, by the way, democratically elected parties. A Canadian government minister from the Conservative Party compared Lebanon’s Hezbullah to Nazi Germany.

The term “Islamofascist” is utterly without meaning, but packed with emotional explosives. It is a propaganda creation worthy Dr. Goebbels, and the latest expression of the big lie technique being used by neocons in Washington’s propaganda war against its enemies in the Muslim World.

This ugly term was probably first coined in Israel – as was the other hugely successful propaganda term, “terrorism” – to dehumanize and demonize opponents and deny them any rational political motivation, hence removing any need to deal with their grievances and demands.

As the brilliant humanist Sir Peter Ustinov so succinctly put it, “Terrorism is the war of the poor, and war is the terrorism of the rich.”

Both the terms “terrorism” and “fascist” have been so abused and overused that they have lost any original meaning. The best modern definition I’ve read of fascism comes in former Colombia University Professor Robert Paxton’s superb 2004 book, The Anatomy of Fascism.

How It All Began – Truman and Israel

How It All Began
Truman and Israel

By HARRY CLARK
http://www-personal.umich.edu/~hfc/mideast/trumanisrael.PDF

The Truman Administration’s policy on Palestine challenges at its start the “strategic asset” view of the US-Israel relationship, and reinforces the “Israel lobby” view, as argued in the recent article by John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt. Truman’s support for the creation of a Jewish state was due entirely to the US Jewish community, without whose influence Zionist achievements in Palestine would have been for nought. Long before any strategic argument was made, indeed, while a Jewish state was considered a strategic liability, long before Israel’s fundamentalist Christian supporters of today were on the map, the nascent Israel lobby deployed its manifold resources with consummate skill and ruthlessness.

Rabbi Abba Silver, a Cleveland Zionist with Republican contacts, and Zionist official Emmanuel Neumann, initiated “Democratic and Republican competition for the Jewish vote.” In 1944 they “wrung support from the conventions of both parties for the Taft-Wagner [Senate] resolution” supporting abrogation of the Palestine immigration limits in the 1939 British white paper, and the establishment of Palestine as a Jewish commonwealth. Ensuring the traditional loyalty of Jewish voters was a paramount concern of Democratic politicians, up to the president himself, in the New York mayoral election of 1945, the 1946 congressional elections, and the 1948 presidential election.

Pay No Attention to The Soldier Saying the Government is Lying about 9-11

By Curt Maynard

Can’t you just see some producer at Fox News calling his friends at CNN, MSNBC, the New York Times, the Washington Post, CBS, ABC, and NBC confidently telling them it’s time to arrest Warren Jeffs, the Mormon polygamist, who has allegedly been dodging federal authorities for the last few years? I can – I can see them calling their allies at the FBI, who have known where Jeffs has been for a long time and telling them, “since the titillating JonBenet Ramsey case is over, why don’t you arrest Jeffs now, and we’ll plaster his face all over every television in the United States, and over every front page in the print media for the next four months in order to keep America’s mind off issues that really do have some importance.”

The American media is worse than worthless, I strongly encourage you to turn off your television and find anything else to do with your time. As a student of psychology, the only reason I watch the television these days is to see what the current propagandistic approach [spin] is on any given event and/or issue. Last week it was the JonBenet Ramsey crap, and now it looks like it’ll be Warren Jeffs for the next couple of months. I don’t care about Jeffs, and neither does the vast majority of Americans, but that doesn’t matter, we’ll all be forced to hear about him over the next several weeks because the media says that’s what we want to see. It’s a lot like the Mel Gibson case, according to a Fox News poll, more than eighty percent of Americans literally don’t care what Gibson said about the Jews, but we’ve been forced to hear what the Jewish media thinks about him every day over the last three weeks.[1]

Michael Ignatieff on Israeli Self-Defense and Serb Ethnic Cleansing
Faith-Based Analysis
EDWARD S. HERMAN, ZNet

August 28, 2006

Michael Ignatieff, now a Canadian MP and contender for a top leadership position in the Liberal Party, was slow in responding to the Israeli war on Lebanon. He told the Canadian media on August 1st that “I’ve been following it minutely from the beginning and watching it unfold and figuring out when was the time when a statement would be important and relevant.” (Linda Diebel, “Rae criticizes liberal rival for delay,” Toronto Star, August 2, 2006). He considered it necessary to give Israel enough time “to send Hezbollah a very clear message” that kidnapping soldiers and firing rockets on Israel will not be tolerated. Of course, Israel was killing mainly civilians and destroying civilian infrastructure while sending this message, and there was the question of whether the world shouldn’t be sending Israel the message that aggression and the commission of war crimes under the pretense of “self defense” is not permissible, but like George Bush and Condoleezza Rice, for Ignatieff the Israeli message was crucial, not any Lebanese civilian casualties or Israeli law violations.

Michael Ignatieff is a skilled trimmer, who has adjusted his principles and thoughts to the demands of the U.S. and Canadian power elite, and advanced accordingly—from academia to preferred commentator on human rights and other political issues in the U.S. mainstream media, and on to becoming a member of the Canadian parliament. He was for some years Carr Professor of Human Rights at Harvard University, and for several years was a regular contributor to the New York Times Magazine. He has always found that what the United States has been doing in the international arena is good—well-intentioned, necessary for international well-being, and inevitable, though occasionally flawed in execution. He was a strong supporter of the U.S. wars in Yugoslavia, objecting mainly to the sluggishness in the application of force. He approved the invasion-occupation of Iraq and has supported the use of torture in the abstract as well as specifically in the Bush administration’s so-called “war on terror,” and as noted he has recently been very understanding of Israel’s need to defend itself against the threats of Hezbollah and its other enemies.

Monsanto Buys ‘Terminator’ Seeds Company

Monsanto Buys ‘Terminator’ Seeds Company

&code=ENG20060827&articleId=3082

The United States Government has been financing research on a genetic engineering technology which, when commercialized, will give its owners the power to control the food seed of entire nations or regions. The Government has been working quietly on this technology since 1983. Now, the little-known company that has been working in this genetic research with the Government’s US Department of Agriculture– Delta & Pine Land– is about to become part of the world’s largest supplier of patented genetically-modified seeds (GMO), Monsanto Corporation of St. Louis, Missouri.

Relations between Monsanto, Delta & Pine Land and the USDA, on closer scrutiny, show the deep and dark side of the much-heralded genetic revolution in agriculture. It proves deep-held suspicions that the Gene Revolution is not about ‘solving the world hunger problem’ as its advocates claim. It’s about handing over control of the seeds for mankind’s basic food supply—rice, corn, soybeans, wheat, even fruit, vegetables and cotton—to privately owned corporations. Once the seeds and their use are patented and controlled by one or several private agribusiness multinationals, it will be they who can decide whether or not a particular customer—let’s say for argument, China or Brazil or India or Japan—whether they will or won’t get the patented seeds from Monsanto, or from one of its licensee GMO partners like Bayer Crop Sciences, Syngenta or DuPont’s Pioneer Hi-Bred International.

While most of us don’t bother to reflect on where the corn in the box of Kellogg’s Corn Flakes or the rice in a box of Uncle Ben’s Converted Rice come from, when we grab it from the supermarket shelf, they all must originate with seeds. Seeds can either be taken by a farmer from the previous season’ seeds, and planted to produce the next harvest. Or, seeds can be bought new each harvest season, from the companies which sell their seeds.

Teacher arrested at JFK airport

Teacher arrested at JFK airport

NEW YORK — A public school teacher was arrested today at John Kennedy International Airport as he attempted to board a flight while in possession of a ruler, a protractor, a set square, a slide rule and a calculator.

At a morning press conference, Attorney General Alberto Gonzales said he believes the man is a member of the notorious Al-gebra movement.

He did not identify the man, who has been charged by the FBI with carrying weapons of math instruction. “Al-gebra is a problem for us,” Gonzales said. “They desire solutions by means and extremes, and sometimes go off on tangents in search of absolute values.

They use secret code names like ‘x’ and ‘y’ and refer to themselves as ‘unknowns’, but we have determined they belong to a common denominator of the axis of medieval with coordinates in every country. As the Greek philanderer Isosceles used to say, ‘There are 3 sides to every triangle’.”

When asked to comment on the arrest, President Bush said, “If God had wanted us to have better weapons of math instruction, He would have given us more fingers and toes.”

White House aides told reporters they could not recall a more intelligent or profound statement by the president.

International Banking and Human Sabotage

August 28, 2006 by

[Editor's Note: This article is the most lucid, common sense rendition of the age-old problem of usury and its negative effects that I have ever come across. It fits seamlessly into the ongoing discussions surrounding the relationship between Zionist Israel, the US/British governments and the present crisis in the Middle East not to mention the strangle-hold over the western media by the Jewish Press and the methodology behind our ongoing debt and the current “War on Terrorism”. It is a very long read but most informative and will undoubtedly add to one’s background knowledge of how the “system” is set up and for whom the bell tolls. Basically it is the key to vault wherein lies the blueprint for the New World Order. Please pass it along to your friends and list members. Thanks to Paul LeBaron for sending this article]

International Banking and Human Sabotage
Barry Dunford

(Extracted from The Holy Land of Scotland: Jesus in Scotland & The Gospel of the Grail, Chapter 8, by Barry Dunford).

Note*- that usury (money lending for profit) was forbidden in the Celtic Church, unlike the Church of Rome which encouraged it.

“Now it is my own belief…that there is running through the nature of the Universe something that we call a ‘canon’. It is the thing which is referred to in the Gospel of St. John as the ‘logos’, the ‘word’…The engineer and the artist refer to it when they say that they have got something ‘right’. Other people mean the same thing when they talk about absolute truth, or reality. Genuine success only accompanies a consistent attempt to discover and to conform to this canon in no matter what sphere our activities may lie.” - C.H. Douglas.

This reveals the centralized controlling monetary mechanism of International Finance which currently dominates the Governments and the people of this world. There is also information as to how this anti-social and wholly unnecessary state of affairs can be changed for the betterment of humanity.

One of the primary mechanisms which has been used (regrettably very successfully) to control the people of this world, is the financial credit creation monopoly which has been, and continues to be, exercised by a handful of supra-national Banking Houses (families). These families, with their accompanying long term policies, are dynastic in nature, a kind of grail lineage in reverse, i.e. an anti-grail lineage. Just as the true Grail lineage has embodied and facilitated the Christic vibrational streaming (“I am the true vine” – Yeshua/Jesus), so the lineage of the anti-grail families has served to facilitate the working of the anti-Christ forces. As ever, the test is the same, “By their fruits ye shall know them”.[1]

In the 1936 edition of the Encyclopedia Britannica (vol. 15, money) appears the explosive statement that “Banks lend by creating credit. They create the means for payment out of nothing.” It may be pertinent to note that in subsequent editions this revealing statement was deleted. In fact, both national and international banking transactions (the source of finance and money in the modern world) are essentially a matter of simple book keeping. In reality, the only difference between £1. and £1,000,000. is 6 noughts – and what do 6 noughts add up to? It really is as simple as that. Yet through the world wide centralized application of this monetary technique the people of this world have been, and continue to be, systematically controlled and manipulated to the point of mutual extermination between various groups or nations via ‘wars’. This has been accompanied by the artificial creation of poverty, in an age of super-productive abundance, and widespread crimes against the individual of every kind imaginable.

Reiner, Gibson and the libel of anti-Semitism

Reiner, Gibson and the libel of anti-Semitism
Written by Andrew Winkler
Monday, 28 August 2006

“I think Jews are the smartest people in the world. For thousands of years, they didn’t have a homeland. They got kicked out of places. They had to live by their wits, so they always stressed education. [...] Because we are the smartest people in the world, we are also the most hated. People feel threatened. We’re the smartest group of people, and yet we’re the lawyers, the doctors, the bankers. We’ve risen to high levels in society and that’s resented. [...] The film industry is all run by Jews, even Disney.” — Film director Rob Reiner (“A Few Good Men,” “When Harry Met Sally”)

I think Rob Reiner is right. Mel Gibson should ‘come clean’ and admit anti-Semitism. Not just the one drunken incident the other day, when he shared with a Jewish cop his thoughts on who is to blame for most of the wars in the world. Nor just in the ‘Passion of Christ’ where he created the impression that Jews were responsible for Jesus’ death. No, he should admit to rampant, all-trandescending anti-Semitism.

Language is a living being. Over the years, words change meaning due to their their day-to-day use in media and politics. The term ‘anti-Semitism’ is a perfect example. You might have heard the joke that in the olden days, an anti-Semite was someone who hated Jews, these days it’s someone the Jews hate.

There is no point arguing whether the term anti-Semitism makes sense or not. It doesn’t matter that 80-90% of modern days Jews, the so-called Ashkenazi, are more related to the ethnic Turk tribes of Hun King Attila than to the Judaic King David. There is no point insisting that the closest thing to anti-’Semitism’ was the Jewish racism against Semitic Arabs or Israel’s ethnic cleansing and slow-motion genocide of the Palestinian people.

At the end of the day, all that matters is the actual modern use of the term. The American online dictionary Webster describes anti-Semitism as being critical of Israel, Jews or Jewish influence. It sounds like a conspiracy, but it isn’t. It’s merely a reflection of Jewish Power, the stranglehold of Jewish interest groups on Western societies.

Israel rejects Amnesty International report

Israel rejects Amnesty International report
Mark Elf, Jews sans frontieres

August 25, 2006

Well fancy that! Israel has rejected the idea that it committed war crimes in Lebanon. This flatly contradicts an Amnesty International report.

The 20-page report, the first comprehensive one issued by the human rights organization on the subject of the recent war, accused Israel of “indiscriminate and disproportionate attacks” which displaced one quarter of the civilian population.

The report alleges that “Israel’s destruction of thousands of homes, and strikes on numerous bridges and roads as well as water and fuel storage plants, was an integral part of Israel’s military strategy in Lebanon, rather than “collateral damage‚ resulting from the lawful targeting of military objectives.”

That strategy, in Amnesty’s assessment of Israeli official statements, was carried out in part in order to turn civilians against Hizbullah. The report noted that any Hizbullah use of civilians as a means of shielding their activities constituted a war crime. But, it said, “under international law such use does not release the opposing party from its obligations towards the protection of the civilian population.” It calculated that more than 1,000 civilians died, some 7,000 strikes had been carried out by the Israeli Air Force, 15,000 residences had been destroyed and at least two hospitals wiped out.

Every time Israel kills children or other civilians some zionist or other claims that they were used as human shields. Now the idea of a human shield is that the other side will hold their fire so as not to kill the human shield. Since its inception, Israel has had no compunction about killing children so who is there in the whole of the Arab world who thinks to use a child, or any civilian, as a human shield?

Those opposed to nuclear annihilation are appeasers and guilty of “handwringing”
by Glenn Greenwald

August 25, 2006

I read numerous pro-Bush blogs on a daily basis, including many war mongerers who routinely imply that we ought to be eradicating large numbers of Middle Eastern civilians as the solution to all of our woes, so it takes a lot in the extremism department to really surprise me. But this column from Walter Williams — highly recommended today by National Review’s Mark Levin — did so with plenty of room to spare.

Williams points out that we could easily “annihilate” Iran or Syria with nuclear weapons launched from submarines. He then claims that the Great Generation of World War II would have done so already, but laments the tragic fact that we are deterred from doing this by what he calls the “handwringing about the innocent lives lost, so-called collateral damage” (all emphasis mine):

Does the United States have the power to eliminate terrorists and the states that support them? In terms of capacity, as opposed to will, the answer is a clear yes.

Think about it. Currently, the U.S. has an arsenal of 18 Ohio class submarines. Just one submarine is loaded with 24 Trident nuclear missiles. Each Trident missile has eight nuclear warheads capable of being independently targeted. That means the U.S. alone has the capacity to wipe out Iran, Syria or any other state that supports terrorist groups or engages in terrorism — without risking the life of a single soldier.

Terrorist supporters know we have this capacity, but because of worldwide public opinion, which often appears to be on their side, coupled with our weak will, we’ll never use it.

Today’s Americans are vastly different from those of my generation who fought the life-and-death struggle of World War II. Any attempt to annihilate our Middle East enemies would create all sorts of handwringing about the innocent lives lost, so-called collateral damage.

Such an argument would have fallen on deaf ears during World War II when we firebombed cities in Germany and Japan. The loss of lives through saturation bombing far exceeded those lost through the dropping of atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

The Death Of Lies

The Death Of Lies
By Reem Al Faisal
Arab News
8-26-6

Now that the guns have fallen silent and the carnage has stopped, our writhing, aching hearts for the dead, the dying and the injured of Lebanon can rest. Now that the destruction and mayhem have ceased, we can look around and begin to assess the damage, weigh the facts, analyze the causes and deduct conclusions. It is a strange war, a war like no other – directed against a small nation. But a war that will affect the fate of the greatest nations of today. A war to topple a local faction has resulted in the undoing of an entire region.

It is surprising that Lebanon, a small country on the edge of the Arab world, should become the stage where a world play is staged. It was not Palestine suffering under the most savage siege in history while the Arabs watched and waited.

Neither was it Iraq with its daily spectacle of carnage that finally unhinged the Arab world. It was little Lebanon and history will record it as the moment when all things changed and everyone realized that nothing could be the same again.

There in Lebanon the seeds of a new Arab world have been sown – not the one predicted by President Bush and his Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice but one free of all the lies it has labored under for decades.

It is said that the first casualty of a war is truth. However, the Lebanese war has been an exception to this rule. In this war the first casualty was the “lie” or the myriad of lies which the world in general and the Arab world in particular has lived by for decades. The lies spun by Israel and the West for the Arab world or the lies garnered by some Arab leaders and intellectuals for their people and finally the lies the Arab people told themselves to escape from their own responsibilities.

Depleted Uranium is WMD

August 23, 2006
Common Dreams

My grandfather, U.S. Army Col. Edwin Joseph McAllister, was born in Battle Creek in 1895. He does not know that his first grandchild is an international expert on depleted uranium. I have worked in two U.S. nuclear weapons laboratories, and in 1991 I became a whistleblower at the Livermore lab. Depleted uranium is very, very, very nasty stuff:

#
Depleted uranium (DU) weaponry meets the definition of weapon of mass destruction in two out of three categories under U.S. Federal Code Title 50 Chapter 40 Section 2302.

#
DU weaponry violates all international treaties and agreements, Hague and Geneva war conventions, the 1925 Geneva gas protocol, U.S. laws and U.S. military law.

#
Since 1991, the U.S. has released the radioactive atomicity equivalent of at least 400,000 Nagasaki bombs into the global atmosphere. That is 10 times the amount released during atmospheric testing which was the equivalent of 40,000 Hiroshima bombs. The U.S. has permanently contaminated the global atmosphere with radioactive pollution having a half-life of 2.5 billion years.

#
The U.S. has illegally conducted four nuclear wars in Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and twice in Iraq since 1991, calling DU “conventional” weapons when in fact they are nuclear weapons.

Like a seed planted into the fertile soils of American hegemony, sprouting in anger with every downpour of American interference in your land, over time nurtured to become a tree bearing the blowback fruit America will be forced to reap, ready to ripen at maturity, your emotions against the Empire growing stronger with every year that passes, with every act of further humiliation and dehumanization, with every display of blatant hypocrisy or lost opportunity, with every new maiming and death upon your family and people.

Whether living in lands overrun by American-sponsored and supported despotic, undemocratic puppets depriving you of real “freedom and democracy,” whether living under the billions-of-dollars-a-year in financial and military assistance American subsidized brutal Israeli occupation and apartheid in the world’s largest concentration camps, Gaza and the West Bank, whether living in lands under constant American military threats, sanctions and embargoes imposed on their citizens, depriving you of healthcare, opportunity, full nourishment and a chance to grow up as a child should, simply because your people happen to resist the Empire’s gluttonous desire for your nation’s location and/or resources, or whether subjected to American styled “birth pangs” of a new Middle East, living amongst the violence-riddled, security-absent, depleted uranium-infested, radioactive-filled rubble and destroyed infrastructures of Iraq, Afghanistan and recently Lebanon, now but birth pangs of death and destruction, not life and freedom, the claws of America’s appetite for the lands of the Middle East are as omnipotent as they are malfeasant, an inescapable reality for millions of Arab and Muslim children such as yourself whose only crime is being born Arab in lands deemed strategic and vital to the continued expansion of the greed-mongering American Leviathan.

On the US-Israeli Invasion of Lebanon

On the US-Israeli Invasion of Lebanon
By Noam Chomsky

08/24/06 “ZNet” — – Al-Adab — Though there are many interacting factors, the immediate issue that lies behind the latest US-Israeli invasion of Lebanon remains, I believe, what it was in the four preceding invasions: the Israel-Palestine conflict. In the most important case, the devastating US-backed 1982 Israeli invasion was openly described in Israel as a war for the West Bank, undertaken to put an end to annoying PLO calls for a diplomatic settlement (with the secondary goal of imposing a client regime in Lebanon). There are numerous other illustrations. Despite the many differences in circumstances, the July 2006 invasion falls generally into the same pattern. Among mainstream American critics of Bush administration policies, the favored version is that “We had always approached [conflict between Israel and its neighbors] in a balanced way, assuming that we could be the catalyst for an agreement,” but Bush II regrettably abandoned that neutral stance, causing great problems for the United States (Middle East specialist and former diplomat Edward Walker, a leading moderate). The actual record is quite different: For over 30 years, Washington has unilaterally barred a peaceful political settlement, with only slight and brief deviations.

The consistent rejectionism can be traced back to the February 1971 Egyptian offer of a full peace treaty with Israel, in the terms of official US policy, offering nothing for the Palestinians. Israel understood that this peace offer would put an end to any security threat, but the government decided to reject security in favor of expansion, then mostly into northeastern Sinai. Washington supported Israel’s stand, adhering to Kissinger’s principle of “stalemate”: force, not diplomacy. It was only 8 years later, after a terrible war and great suffering, that Washington agreed to Egypt’s demand for withdrawal from its territory.

Scientists flock to test ‘free energy’ discovery

Scientists flock to test ‘free energy’ discovery

David Smith
Sunday August 20, 2006
The Observer

A man who claims to have developed a free energy technology which could
power everything from mobile phones to cars has received more than 400
applications from scientists to test it.

Sean McCarthy says that no one was more sceptical than he when Steorn, his
small hi-tech firm in Dublin, hit upon a way of generating clean, free and
constant energy from the interaction of magnetic fields. ‘It wasn’t so much
a Eureka moment as a get-back-in-there-and-check-your-instruments moment, although in far more colourful language,’ said McCarthy. But when he attempted to share his findings, he says, scientists either put the phone down on him or refused to endorse him publicly in case they damaged their academic reputations. So last week he took out a full-page advert in the Economist magazine, challenging the scientific community to examine his technology.

McCarthy claims it provides five times the amount of energy a mobile phone
battery generates for the same size, and does not have to be recharged. Within 36 hours of his advert appearing he had been contacted by 420 scientists in Europe, America and Australia, and a further 4,606 people had registered to receive the results.

Another Congressman Hoax — on Iran

Just When You Thought You’d Seen Everything: Hoekstra’s Hoax
By Ray McGovern

*Ray McGovern works with Tell the Word, the publishing arm of the ecumenical Church of the Saviour in Washington, DC. A CIA analyst for 27 years, he is co-founder of Veteran Intelligence Professionals for Sanity (VIPS).

t r u t h o u t | Perspective Friday 25 August 2006

Talk about chutzpah! I was suffering a bit from outrage fatigue yesterday but was shaken out of it as soon as I downloaded an unusually slick paper, “Recognizing Iran as a Strategic Threat: An Intelligence Challenge for the United States,” released this week by House intelligence committee chair, Pete Hoekstra.

No, not “Hoaxer.” This is serious – very serious. The paper amounts to a pre-emptive strike on what’s left of the Intelligence Community, usurping its prerogative to provide policymakers with estimates on front-burner issues – in this case, Iran’s weapons of mass destruction and other threats. The Senate had already requested a National Intelligence Estimate (NIE) on Iran. But Hoekstra is first out of the starting gate. Professional intelligence officers were “as a courtesy” invited to provide input to Hoekstra’s report.

While you can’t judge a book by its cover, you can glean insight these days from the titles given to National Intelligence Estimates and papers meant to supplant them. Remember “Iraq’s Continuing Program for Weapons of Mass Destruction,” the infamous NIE of October 1, 2002, by which Congress was misled into approving an unnecessary war? “Continuing” leaped out of the title, foreshadowing the one-sided thrust of an estimate ostensibly commissioned to determine whether WMD programs were “continuing,” or whether they had been dead for ten years. (The latter turned out to be the case, but the title – and the cooked insides – provided the scare needed to get Congress aboard.)

Mexico Approaches the Combustion Point

Mexico Approaches the Combustion Point

By JOHN ROSS

Mexico City.

The Congress of the country is ringed by two-meter tall grilled metal barriers soldered together apparently to thwart a suicide car bomb attack. Behind this metal wall, 3000 vizored, kevlar-wearing robocops — the Federal Preventative Police (PFP, a police force drawn from the army) — and members of the elite Estado Mayor or Presidential military command, form a second line of defense. Armed with tear gas launchers, water cannons, and reportedly light tanks, this Praetorian Guard has been assigned to protect law and order and the institutions of the republic against left-wing mobs that threaten to storm the Legislative Palace — or so the President informs his fellow citizens in repeated messages transmitted on national television.

No, the President’s name is not Pinochet and this military tableau is not being mounted in the usual banana republic or some African satrap. This is Mexico, a paragon of democracy (dixit George Bush), Washington’ third trading partner, and the eighth leading petroleum producer on the planet, seven weeks after the fraud-marred July 2 presidential election of which, at this writing, no winner has been officially declared. One of the elite military units assigned to seal off congress is indeed titled the July 2 brigade.

MEXICO ON A KNIFEBLADE headlines the British Guardian, but the typically short-term-memory-loss U.S. print media seems to have forgotten about the imbroglio just south of its borders. Nonetheless, the phone rings and it’s New York telling me they just got a call from their man on the border and Homeland Security is beefing up its forces around Laredo in anticipation of upheaval further south. The phone rings again and it’s California telling me they just heard on Air America that U.S. Navy patrols were being dispatched to safeguard Mexican oil platforms in the Gulf. The left-wing daily here, La Jornada, runs a citizen-snapped photo of army convoys arriving carrying soldiers disguised as farmers and young toughs. Rumors race through the seven mile-long encampment installed by supporters of leftist presidential challenger Andres Manuel Lopez Obrador (AMLO) three weeks ago who have tied up big city traffic and enraged the motorist class here, that PFP robocops will attack before dawn. The campers stay up all night huddled around bum fires prepared to defend their tent cities.

Robert Fisk: Hizbollah’s reconstruction of Lebanon is winning the loyalty of disaffected Shia

Robert Fisk: Hizbollah’s reconstruction of Lebanon is winning the loyalty of disaffected Shia

Published: 24 August 2006
http://news.independent.co.uk/world/fisk/article1221306.ece

Hizbollah has trumped both the UN army and the Lebanese government by pouring hundreds of millions of dollars – most of it almost certainly from Iran – into the wreckage of southern Lebanon and Beirut’s destroyed southern suburbs. Its massive new reconstruction effort – free of charge to all those Lebanese whose homes were destroyed or damaged in Israel’s ferocious five-week assault on the country – has won the loyalty of even the most disaffected members of the Shia community in Lebanon.

Hizbollah has made it clear that it has no intention of disarming under the UN Security Council’s 1701 ceasefire resolution and yesterday afternoon, Major-General Alain Pellegrini, the commander of the UN Interim Force in southern Lebanon – which the Americans and British are relying upon to seize the guerrilla army’s weapons – personally confirmed to me at his headquarters in Naqoura that “the Israelis can’t ask us to disarm Hizbollah”. Describing the ceasefire as “very fragile” and “very dangerous”, he stated that disarming Hizbollah “is not written in the mandate”.

But for now – and in the total absence of the 8,000-strong foreign military force that is intended to join Unifil with a supposedly “robust” mandate – Hizbollah has already won the war for “hearts and minds”. Most householders in the south have received – or are receiving – a minimum initial compensation payment of $12,000 (£6,300), either for new furniture or to cover their family’s rent while Hizbollah construction gangs rebuild their homes. The money is being paid in cash – almost all in crisp new $100 bills – to up to 15,000 families across Lebanon whose property was blitzed by the Israelis, a bill of $180m which is going to rise far higher when reconstruction and other compensation is paid.

The Discrimination Game

The Discrimination Game

The Occupier Defines Justice
By AMIRA HASS
http://www.counterpunch.org/hass08232006.html

On Jerusalem’s Jabotinsky Street, opposite the President’s Residence, a medium-sized plaque is fixed on a locked gate, enclosing a broad building and a lovely garden: “This building was the location of the British Mandate Government’s High Military Court, which held the trials of the Hebrew resistance fighters from the Haganah, Etzel and Lehi.” The sign bears the emblems of the Jerusalem municipality and the three resistance organizations. It further notes: “The resistance fighters refused to acknowledge the authority of the court to judge them, and asked to be recognized as prisoners of war.”

The speaker of the Palestinian Authority’s parliament, who was arrested two weeks ago by the Israel Defense Forces, also refused to acknowledge the authority of the Military Court to judge him. Obviously the two latest detainees, whose arrest was deemed by Israel to be the appropriate solution to its shortcomings in releasing kidnapped soldier Gilad Shalit, will make the same declaration. Nasser A-Shaer, the Palestinian education minister and deputy prime minister, and Mahmoud Ramahi, chief whip of the Palestinian Legislative Council, were arrested on Saturday and Sunday. Incidentally, the Palestinians have lately ceased using the verb “arrested” in regards to the arrests of Palestinians by Israeli soldiers. Instead they use the verb “abducted.”

These three detainees/abducted join about 10,000 other Palestinian prisoners and detainees. As with the prisoners of the Hebrew resistance, who saw themselves as POWs regardless of their actions (killing British soldiers or Arab civilians), some Palestinians request that their prisoners be declared POWs. Others prefer the definition of political prisoners. Let’s let the definitions rest. In any case, from the offense to the jailing, Israel, as an occupying force, plays around with the definitions as it sees fit.

The BBC: A Global Instrument of Zionist Propaganda

August 20, 2006 by

[Editor's note: This article basically says everything one would need to know to realize that the BBC, along with all the major media companies that make up what I call the Mainstream Mindcontrol Media or M3 are ALL controlled by Zionist Jews either directly or indirectly. It would have been nice if the author below had of simply come out with that fact.]

The BBC: A Global Instrument of Zionist Propaganda
Ghali Hassan –
www.mpacuk.org

The portrayal of the BBC as independent and impartial public broadcaster is sadly misleading. The BBC is a global instrument of Zionist propaganda. In addition to defending Israel’s terrorism and the illegal occupation of Palestinian land, the BBC is an active complicit in Zionism war crimes throughout the Middle East.

A study by Greg Philo and Mike Berry of the Glasgow University Media Unit in Scotland reveals that the British media, including the BBC denying the public an opportunity to understand the rights of the Palestinian people resistance to Israel’s terror and Israeli occupation of Palestinian land. As a result of the BBC Zionist propaganda, the British public remain confused and unable to differentiate between the gross violence of the oppressors (the Israelis) and the retaliatory self-defence of the oppressed (the Palestinians). It is sad that the majority of the British public are unaware of the fact that since 1967 Palestinians are under illegal Israeli military occupation; the longest and most brutal in modern history. The so-called Palestinian “authority” is a myth created by Israel and the U.S. to manipulate public opinion and cover-up Israel’s crimes.

With its veneer of English sophistication and global audience, the BBC is a formidable propaganda instrument. Just after the Israeli army murdered an entire family (the Ghalia’s family) and wounded many more Palestinians while picnicking on a northern Gaza beach, the BBC was the first Western media to defend Israel and volunteered to cover-up Israel’s crimes. The BBC went along to unchallenged the Israeli lies, and happily repeated the Israeli army (Israeli occupation forces [IOF]) claims that Israel is an innocent bystander. The BBC version was that; “Israel is not responsible for a blast that killed an entire Palestinian family enjoying a picnic on a Gaza beach last Friday, Defence Minister Amir Peretz says”. The BBC deliberately ignored hard evidence – Palestinian eyewitnesses, hospital records, the U.S.-based Human Right Watch (HRW) and even Israelis – that refuted the Israeli military version of events.
