    Amos Dror, the former head of research in Israeli military intelligence, recently made the following statement to the Australian Broadcasting Corporation’s Lateline programme: "If Israel will be hit by any missile, the Iranians will not have enough people to count their dead. It will lead to the destruction and the end of Iran and as a civilisation."
    In plain English, he was saying that, if Israel is hit even by a single conventional Iranian (…)

    I read with great amusement of news conservative "icon" William F. Buckley has now admitted that Operation Iraqi Freedom was a big mistake. It takes a Yale man 3 years to discern that obvious conclusion while the rest of us , the great unwashed , figured out the plot before the massacre commenced. Buckley disingenuously claims Der Fuhrer didn’t place enough boots on the ground to subdue Iraq’s restive masses ..... Such malarkey ..... 80 -90 % of the people of Iraq (…)

  • LEDEEN LINKS CHAVEZ , CASTRO TO IRAN : PNAC MARCHING SOUTHWARD ?
    9 March 2006 par (Open-Publishing)
    1 comment

    Michael Ledeen , appearing on C-SPAN , has apparently linked the governments of Fidel Castro and Hugo Chavez to Iran. I am getting this information second hand but I have no reason to believe that it is not true.... Are the neocons preparing to march southward rather than mounting an immediate invasion and occupation of Iran ? ..... One can readily envision a scenario of a staged-managed "Al Qaeda" attack , say perhaps a "dirty bomb", being smuggled over the Mexican border . ....... (…)

  • "Thou Shalt Not Criticize the Zionists!"
    9 March 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    "Sacred cows make the best hamburger." - Mark Twain
    The 11th Commandment states: “Thou Shalt Not Criticize the Zionists!” Most Americans of my generation know it by heart. It’s the first thing a politician learns if he or she wants to get elected, and reelected, to public office, especially to the U.S. Congress. It’s a powerful prohibition even though many refuse to acknowledge its existence. Mostly, it’s a taboo subject. Moses didn’t bring it down from Mount Sinai with him, nor does the (…)

    BERLIN (Reuters) - If the U.N. Security Council is incapable of taking action to stop Iran from acquiring nuclear weapons, Israel will have no choice but to defend itself, Israel’s defense minister said on Wednesday.
    Defense Minister Shaul Mofaz was asked whether Israel was ready to use military action if the Security Council proved unable to act against what Israel and the West believe is a covert Iranian nuclear weapons program.
    "My answer to this question is that the state of Israel (…)

  • Interim Peace Plan for Israel-Palestine - Peace with Justice NOW
    8 March 2006 par (Open-Publishing)

    The US, UK, Israeli and Mainstream Media continually rail hysterically against "terror" to the extent that people generally FAIL TO REALIZE that "terror" actually ENABLES illegal US, UK, Israeli and Coalition occupation of Muslim lands in the Middle East and Central Asia and its horrendous human consequences.
    Mainstream Media LYING means that people generally do not realize that while Muslim-origin non-state terrorists have killed about 5,000 Western civilians over the last 20 years, the (…)
