Wasn’t the extension of military service put over quietly?  Was it SUCCESSFULLY resisted in the courts?  The US power sysstem is in its END TIMES degeneration, and the only effective political resource the population has is its own mobilization and resistence.  More than than in past.  The population has almost no representation in the power process: not in the electoral process, in the legal system, the mass media, or in the economy.

Folktruther—it is my belief that a draft for whatever purpose will require an act of Congress.  It is certain to be resisted in the courts as well as politically; it cannot be put over quietly.  At least, I don’t think it can.

I don’t know why you imply that a military draft must be enacted by Congress.  Where, not incidentially, the Dem Rangel has been introducing legislation for years.  The interpretation and extention of tours of milarty persons was done entirely with out Congressional legislation.  By increasing the benifits of service and the penalties of non-service to high school students, especially in a national Emergency of the War on Terrorism…

In any case Congress could create a voluntary organization, like the Peace Corp, and simply extend its restrictions after a bit.  Something like this could be done right now, given the dire economic conditions and low ideological awareness of the population.  It may be politic for Obiden to wait a bit but I expect some such program to be implemented.  The Dems tradtionally advocate it.

Folktruther:
‘It isn’t idle talk if both Dem and Gop leaders agree, and they are both funded by Zionists who have a draft in Israel.  And Obama is appointing military Zionists to key positions. ...’

It’s idle talk until they do something, which will require enactment by Congress.  The bringing of a bill to reinstate any kind of draft would be fresh red meat for the Republicans and the Democratic Left.  I don’t think Mr. O and his friends are going to risk it until they’ve got some of their other problems under control.  If it occurs at all I would predict it as part of the traditional hubris-atê-nemesis of the second term.

Of course great leaders, “Zionist” or not, would love to have the masses coerced to do their will.  I am sure jerks like Emanuel and Summers are certain they know better how the lower orders should spend their time than the lower orders do. But that isn’t the way the political structure of the United States works at the moment.

It isn’t idle talk if both Dem and Gop leaders agree, and they are both funded by Zionists who have a draft in Israel.  And Obama is appointing military Zionists to key positions.

The media keeps it quiet precisely to avoid stirring up the young.  And it will not be a military draft.  Heaven forfend! It will be, initially, a voluntary peace force that promotes goodwill, humanity, etc that will provide some financial incentive for a few months service.  Or deprives you of one if you don’t serve.  And then it will be strengthened in the appropriate military direction.

The power stucture knows that a draft stirs up opposition better than anyone else.  Obama is a very intelligent clever political leader.  The American people are very backward and do not sufficiently distrust the American powerful.  It can be implemented in ways that diffuse opposition, just as the Dems diffused demos against the Iraqi war.

The American people are not yet commintted to opposition of the American power structure.  Until they are a draft is a real danger.

Folktruther—I am watching the draft business with interest.  Thus far I don’t see anything but idle talk.  However, idle talk does occasionally turn into real evil.  The sooner we detect anything concrete, the sooner we can organize resistance.

Obama has stirred up a lot of idealistic youth, and if he now starts to draft them into some sort of Federal forced-labor mill with military overtones, or into the military itself, I think there is going to be hell to pay—interesting hell, perhaps.  It would be certainly be quite a recruiting opportunity for radicals of both the Right and the Left.  It would probably also guarantee a one-term presidency.

I am hoping, though, that Mr. O is too clever to get himself into this kind of political morass.

Webster Tarpley’s book, “Obama: The Postmodern Coup - Making of a Manchurian Candidate describes the foreign policy of the Obama administration.  First, Brzezinski and Albright don’t see the middle east as the route to world domination.  They advise easing out of the middle east and going directly at Russia and China, probably with the thinking that let’s do it now while we still can.  These people come from the Trilateral Commission, much like George Bush was selected to run in 2000 by George Schultz and gang at the Hoover Institute.
“Looking at this topic and people who’ll be his advisers, the central question becomes obvious: did Obama choose these people, or did these people choose Obama?”  And, now that he’s surrounding himself with a consortium of right-wing acceptables (Note the narrative developing about Obama’s cabinet of opposites.) The question now becomes is: How far is he going to take this expansion of NATO ploy.  And is he going to go to the next step in the militarization of space?

No,no, Anarcissie, not just rhetoric.  On Sept 11 both McCain and Obama came out explicitly for a draft. It was largely blacked out in the media and softened and disguised to include civilian functions.  Such a draft exists in Israel and Zionists want to intoduce it here to continue the War against Muslims. 

I know you are not much interested in Middle Eastern affairs, and they would not be very interesting or important to Americans in themselves, but they vitally affect both foreign and domestic American policy.  And Zionist sleaze and censorship are important in preventing the American population from forming a left people values, since they are so influential in the media.

Sepharad’s and Iherit’s sleaze that I hate Jews, am a white supremist, advocate massacre, don’t care about Arabs, etc are more or less typcial Zionist examples, and displays Zionist lack of respect for the reality-based truth.  They attack all anti-Zionists in this way that they can’t censor, both Jews and non-Jews.  And this will get worse as the American people understand that Zionism has hijacked American policy.

The New Yorker’s profile of Emanuel can be found at http://www.newyorker.com/talk/2008/11/17/081117ta_talk _widdicombe .

My impression of Obama’s proposal was that, like a good deal of what campaigning politicians say, it was low on specifics and mostly designed to produce warm feelings in a certain part of the electorate without deeply offending anyone else.  The American Constitution explicitly prohibits “involuntary servitude”; in 1917 the Supreme Court had to stand on its head to find the military draft Constitutional, and impressing people for non-military duties which could be performed better by volunteers and people hired for the purpose would be a considerable reach even for today’s right-wing court.  I think and hope the proposal is unlikely to be carried forward, but even as a mere fantasy it says a lot about the people who entertain it.

Inherit—Your grandfather, a Menshavik, was sent to Siberia at 17. Did anyone ever hear from him again, by letter or did he survive the experience?
*************************************************

Well, yeah, of course he did-otherwise he wouldn’t have been my grandfather. He was only 17 when he was sent away—by the Tsar, not Stalin. He didn’t meet my grandmother until he got to the US.

*************************************************
It’s pretty horrifying the way revolutions cannibalize their own, ... Lenin murdered. And then there was Trotsky.
***************************************

I don’t know if Stalin murdered Lenin, though he was a murderer by that time. 

Of course, Stalin had Trotsky murdered as a message. And, don’t forget, Stalin was VIRULENT hater of Jews. Trotsky, of course, was born Lev Bronstein, a Jew. In the 1950’s as one of his last purges, Stalin went after Jewish doctors.

***************************************

Hate to admit it but I’m also one of the idiots who didn’t know Rahm Emanuel was not an Israeli citizen—in fact I didn’t know much about him at all, except that he was a Chicago pol tight with Pelosi et al, ....
**************************************

I find all these comments at TD about Emmanuel being an Israeli citizen and Lieberman being an Israeli citizen or dual citizens as insultingly stupid slanders.  Both insulting and incredibly stupid…typical of white supremacists who’ll say ANYTHING, no matter how absurd.

Under our Constitution, Art. 1 sec. 2:
“No person shall be a Representative who shall not have attained to the age of twenty-five years, and been seven years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that State in which he shall be chosen.”

Art. 1 Sec.3:
“No person shall be a Senator who shall not have attained to the age of thirty years, and been nine years a citizen of the United States, and who shall not, when elected, be an inhabitant of that State for which he shall be chosen.”

It’s simply not possible and not legal.

**************************************
Which brings me to “pleasant” as an insult.
...
Husband decided Folktruther is probably just a garden-variety white supremacist who projects a lot on other people—possibly big corp/bigoil/bigmoney agent. Or dupe. My delusion on the other hand is that there’s still a way to salvage a decent life for the Jews and Arabs of the region—things are pretty bleak right now.
***************************************

I’m not worried about that—“Pleasant”.  Folk tries to use disparaging descriptions as a debate tactic.  For those capable of critical thinking, it’s just irrelevant noise.  Frankly, I’ve been called far, far worse—by Folk and others.

Folk’s problem is two-fold: 1) he HATES Jews and thinks they should all get out of Israel.  Where? He neither knows nor cares.  So what if they die?  Who cares? Just like who cares that now FIVE MILLION have died in on-going Congo/Zaire civil/tribal wars over the diamond, gold and other mines (and the wealth, power, mansions, guns, cars, drugs, alcohol, and unlimited sex that comes with it)?

2) Folk has no interest in the real, everyday, Main Street, “Sherra Main” Palestinian Arabs.  Their daily lives and problems mean nothing to him.  See, if THEIR problems can be solved by a fair and just 2-state solution w/ Israel, Folk would STILL oppose it.  As a self-described Socialist, Folk doesn’t realize that Hamas and Hezbollah are RELIGIOUS and are as intolerant as the Likud.  But the current Socialist/Marxist left has, since the days of Vanessa Redgrave, romantically viewed the Palestinians as “freedom fighters” and the Israelis as “oppressors”.  And NOTHING, not even a negotiated fair peace, can change his or their minds.

The word thing I have heard about Rahm Emanuel is that he was infatuated with Hegel.  That was in the recent New Yorker profile.  The second worst thing is his fondness for drafting people into some sort of national service—that is, he believes he, Rahm Emanuel, knows better what people should do with their time than they do.  The abusiveness and threats of violence are familiar concomitants of such types: ruling-class operatives with a strong belief in their personal and class superiority, their right to rule.  The funny thing is that so many of them consider themselves to be liberals.

Sepharad—I don’t care whether you read Finkelstein or not.  I have little specific interest in what we might call Middle Eastern affairs, and I have no advice or judgements to issue to the various struggling parties; and I have not read a word of Finkelstein’s, nor do I plan to.  I was just very surprised that you, who do evidence knowledge and concern with such matters, were unaware of Finkelstein and the controversies surrounding him, since his work appears to touch directly on your interests, and his academic fate has been enough of a scandal or cause celebre to come to my attention.

Oh, I think we understand each other alright, Cann4ing, but they identify with Israeli power and I adentify with the Israeli and Palestinian people.  And the conflict of these interests is becoming increasinly irreconciable historically.

I don’t mind antagonism, as long as it’s intelligent antagonism.  I get enough stupid antagonism every day just trying to get through New York City traffic.

The level of invective between pro and anti-Zionist posters is disappointing and counter-productive.  The evidence of the brutality of Israel’s 41 year, apartheid like occupation is exceedingly well documented by Prof. Finkelstein in “Beyond Chutzpah.”  But so has the idiocy of suicide bombers.

It would be far more helpful for people to take a step back from the name calling and think carefully about how a just and lasting peace can be accomplished.  This, of course, requires some level of honest self-examination by those supporting the state of Israel—in this case ITW & Sepharad would do well to actually take the time to read “Beyond Chutzpah”—something I am relatively certain neither has done.  It also entails some level of political maturity on the part of others like Arnarcissie & Folktruther who must recognize that a less antagonistic form of discourse would better serve mutual understanding.

Folktruther—I don’t think you’re a Nazi, and I was very sorry to see that kind of rhetoric being employed here.  Unfortunately, that sort of thing is all too common; one might as well pass over it.  I was most disturbed to see that the notorious Finkelstein had suddenly become an unperson.  That is pretty odd.

Anarcissie makes the point that people have to be able to reason logically for themselves.  Even when the reasoning leads to truths that conflict with the mainstream American truth.  In this case you have to choose between truth and Zionism.

Inherit maintains that I don’t give any facts that support Zionist oppression.  Do you think that is true?

They both claim that I am really blaming the Jews like Hitler did to support capitalism.  Shenonymous also claims that I support Nazism and Hitler.  Do you think this is true?

I think they are choosing Zionism over truth.  As the Israeli power system does in refusing Finkestein entrance.  Or Aipac does in censoring anti-Zionist truths by both Jews and non-Jews in the mainstream media.

The matter is important because Zionists are one of the chief supporters of America’s war imperialism.  And it is allied to the neoliberalism in both the Gop and Dem party.  You cannot oppose American military imperialism without opposing Zionism.  And therefore without opposing, on this restricted front, Sepharad and Inherit.

But you have to distinguish between Jewish and Christian support for Zionism and the Jewish population, many of whom support it.  That is, between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism.  Zionists deliberately conflate the two to legitimate a defense of Zionist war and oppression.

Aipac, for example, FEATURED Rev Hagee at their annual conference who argued that Hitler was doing God’s work in the Holocaust to get Jews to Palestine.
That is, Zionists favor Jewish POWER over Jewish PEOPLE.  This favoring power over people is common in politics and is a great historical tragedy of earthpeople.  But in this case it is obvious.  Aipac allies with the most anti-Semitic wing of American ideology in order to support the power of Zionism.

And since anti-Semtism has been interwoven with Christian ideology historically, it will require a historical period to disintangle it.  But we can begin here and now, and must, if we are to effectively oppose American imperialism.

’... Any Jew who wants Israel to thrive must LOGICALLY (my edit) also want the Palestinians to thrive. ...’

The case of Norman Finkelstein is rather interesting, at least to my non-specialist point of view.  Most recently, Finkelstein was denied entry to Israel at Ben-Gurion airport because, apparently, the Israeli government doesn’t like his opinions.  Before that, the excitement was that DePauw university denied him tenure after the faculty and a tenure committee had voted in favor of it, again apparently because of the controversial nature of his opinions.  He is most famous for books refuting Peters’s contention that there are no real Palestinians, and that the Holocaust, or rather, the remembrance of it, has become something of a self-serving public-relations and litigation industry—an observation with which none other than Raoul Hilberg agreed.  For more on the controversies surrounding Finkelstein, see the Wikipedia article and, of course, Google his name.

I mention Finkelstein because the way in which he has been dealt with by the Israeli government and its fans seems to preclude any policy or activity which would cause the Palestinians to thrive as such.  There are a few steps in there I’m leaving out, but since logic has been mentioned, I’m sure the interested reader can make them.  I can spell them out if necessary, however.

Or, you can just rewrite my name in a humorous manner.

Sephard:
My Berkeley born, bred and educated husband—more intellectual than me and one of those wild radical lefties but loves me anyway—suggested to me, after reading your posts, that the Nazis scapegoated Jews to protect the German industrialists and enrich Nazis while screwing the German middle and working classes royally, despite Hitler’s constant cries of concern for those good Germans.
***************************

This is consistent with the German industrialists’ presumption that they could control Hitler, and to their shock and dismay, they discovered they couldn’t.

*********************************************
Husband suggests that you are scapegoating Jews/Zionists to protect Bush and all the other Rockefeller Morgan Stanley etc etc capitalists and cronies from an aroused proletariat, and points out that real revolutionaries have never had problems with Jews or Zionists for that matter, from Lenin to Castro and Che.
**********************************

Let’s not forget that Prescott Bush had dealings with the Nazis, Walt Disney was anti-Semitic, and Henry Ford was SO virulent a Jew-hater he published a propaganda newspaper to promote his twisted views.  Even the “hero” Charles Lindbergh was a hater of Jews for no good reason.

**********************************
Large proportion of revolutionaries in 19th and 20th centuries have, in fact, been Jews.
**********************************

Yeah, like Karl Marx and Leo Trotsky, not to mention my grandfather, a Menshevik sent to Siberia by the Tsar at age 17, to a camp for political prisoners.  The first “revolutionary” to embody anti-semitism was, of course, the Communist Tsar, Joseph Stalin.

**********************************
And maybe, in fact, Inherit the Wind is onto something in referring to you as “Volkvehrer”. (Have never thought to ask before, but do you even know what “Zionism” is? Or that Zionists come in many varieties and argue strenuously?
********************************************

This reminds us that many fanatical Arab organization have ties with neo-nazis and white supremacists due to making common cause: destruction of Jews.  Many Arab leaders were willing allies to the Nazis for this reason, most notably the Mufti of Jerusalem.

********************************************
Whether you do or not, just consider this: Any Jew who wants Israel to thrive must LOGICALLY (my edit) also want the Palestinians to thrive. And since the other Arabs—except for the Jordanians—aren’t going to do anything useful but quite the opposite, the Israelis and Palestinians are going to have to help each other. That has been obvious to me, and mine, all our lives.
****************************

Sephared, this is common sense. But common sense isn’t very common.  Look at all the idiots who believe:

Obama is an Arab and Moslem and Communist.
Rahm Emmanuel was born in Israel, is an Israeli citizen, served in the IDF and hates all Arabs.

Every one of these “facts” are believed with religious fervor by idiots despite the REAL fact that every one of them is VERIFIABLY false.

****************************
I don’t care what you call me, except, please, not “pleasant.”
****************************

I don’t mind being called “pleasant”.  If that’s an insult it’s about the mildest I’ve ever been called!  Besides, I am (usually) pleasant, even funny and I don’t embarrass my teenager TOO much.

Folktruther, November 14 at 8:49 pm #

You are just a Zionist ding-a-ling.  But loveable withall, since your wife loves you, and possibly your kids as well.  And, hell, I don’t mind you much either.
********************************

This must be true.  There are no facts to support it, no proof, no evidence. Not even an indication to point that way. But it must be true.  Why?

Volksvehrer says so.

BTW, Zogby be just posted that Rahm Emmanuel is not:
1) Israeli-born
2) An Israeli or dual citizen.
3) a veteran of serving in the IDF
4) Anti-Arab (he has a history of working with Arab-American groups)
5) appointed to promote a Zionist agenda but to get bills through Congress.

Let us not forget that Zogby is an Arab-American sympathetic to Arab causes.  Yet HE defends Emmanuel (and Obama) from all the absurd accusations made against him.

But all these bad things about Rahm Emmanuel MUST be true despite the truth that FACTS and EVIDENCE as presented by an ARAB-American say otherwise.

Sow why are these bad things true?

Volksvehrer says so.

Nah, I wouldn’t wade into a libelious assualt on you Imherit, you ignorant lout.  You aren’t dangerous.  You have the same Zionist appreciation of apartheid Israel as my relatives, but appear to be sincerely disturbed by the racist implications of it.  Your notion of anti-Semitism is too silly to combat seriously.  You appear to think anyone anti-Semitic who threatens to raise your taxes.

Sepharad, now, that’s something else.  She appears to be a pleasant, talented person who identifies with evil.  And that evil of imperialist aggression is leading the US historically to a thermonuclear war.  If its a question between Zionism and truth, or Zionism and preventing war, or Zionism and common decency, Sepharad will choose Zionism.

You, on the other hand… well you might too but you might not.  You are a sincere, muddleheaded and quirky commenter who doesn’t think so good politically.  Well,you have plenty of company.  But Sepharad thinks good and follows the straight Israeli line.  She is part of what James Petras called the Zionest Power Configuration. 

You are just a Zionist ding-a-ling.  But loveable withall, since your wife loves you, and possibly your kids as well.  And, hell, I don’t mind you much either.

Finkelstein vs. Dershowitz—classic mismatch.  Dershowitz wouldn’t know the truth if it bit him on the behind.

PatrickHenry, November 14 at 3:47 pm #

Now theres a Pay Per view.
********************************

I’d pay a nickel to see it.  Maybe even a dime.  But a quarter? No way!

Finkelstein vs Dershowitz

Now theres a Pay Per view.

Now Volksvehrer will launch into a libelous assault on me and fill it with all sorts of absurd contentions. He’ll have you convinced I’ve got horns on my head and a forked tail. At least he’ll convince himself.

Not one of his contentions will be demonstrable, and certainly not provable.  But that doesn’t matter to
Volksvehrer.  What ever Volksvehrer fantasizes is instantly gospel truth, no matter how absurd and ridiculous. Why?

Volksvehrer says so.

Sepharad, You are a rotten, evil Likudist Zionist Pig who wants to dominate the world!

How do I know?  Volksvehrer says so.
All the facts you present mean nothing.  Volksvehrer says so.
All the posts you’ve made on your position mean nothing. Volksvehrer says so.
All the subtle arguments you’ve made mean nothing. Volksvehrer says so.
All the things you know about yourself mean nothing.
Volksvehrer says so.
That there’s not ONE SHRED OF EVIDENCE to support Volksvehrer’s bizarre contentions about you means nothing. Volksvehrer says so.

Why are you all these horrible things? Volksvehrer says so.

How does Volksvehrer know that this is “The Truth”?  You disagreed with him.  Disagreeing with Volksvehrer (especially on facts, which he doesn’t have) means you are an evil Likudist Zionist employed by the Mossad with the directive to destroy the world for the advancement of Zionism! How do I know? Volksvehrer says so.

Volksvehrer believes in freedom of thought and liberty.  Volksvehrer says so.  But anyone who DARES challenge Volksvehrer immediately loses their freedom of thought, speech and liberty… How do I know?
Volksvehrer says so.

... Sepharad’s contention that she has never heard of Finkelstein ....

Astonishing.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Finkelstein

President-elect Obama’s current policies for the countries of Georgia and Ukraine are stupid and incompetent flirting with future disaster. Cyrena, where are you when we badly need your advice?

Sepharad has consistenly and professionally supported Zionism’s war plans for the US. Her support for Obama keeping Gates as Defense Sec., on the absurd grounds that the ‘far left’ advocates it, is part of the current pro-war Zionist agenda.

Porter at CommonDreams currently has a featured article maintaining that there is a swell of neocon support for Obama keeping Gates to prevent him from withdrawing combat troops from Iraq.  Gates opposes withdrawing combat troops in 16 months. Obama is currently considering keeping Gates.

As Scheer has pointed out, Gates worked for Brzezinski in the Carter administration and Brzezinski is currently an Obama foreign policy adviser.  This is a further indication of Scheer’s contention that there is a grouping of war mongers presssuring Obama to continue Bush’s wars.  Sepharad, in my opinion, is part of this grouping.

Sepharad’s contention that she has never heard of Finkelstein,whose name she spells correctly despite my usual sloppy typos, is interesting, given that he has been involved in a number of well publicized incidents involving Zionism (and is himself a soft Zionist.)  And her contention that mumerous scholars, many of them Zionist, praised Peters book is quite true.  Until Finkelstein exposed it.  And Chomsky does not call a book a fraud without reason, or suggest that an intelligence agency wrote it.

The book was exposed in a London literary magazine, since Zionist censorship prevented reports on the fraud in this country, as Chomsky details.  After that happened it was not reviewed in the NEW YORK REVIEW OF BOOKS.  But it’s still in print, according to Sepharad.  11 printings!  My, they do keep at it.

I may be wrong, but it seems that Zbigniew Brzezinski, either by increasing age or hard-won wisdom, is also in opposition to stupid wars.

“Why do authors, commentators, journalists, politicians, pundits and joe the plumber keep referring to Bin Laden as the “terrorist” who attacked us on 9/11? 

They all (as do all foreign leaders) know that it was an inside job. 

This chronic referral to “those who attacked us on 9/11” makes those doing the referring as complicit in the cover-up as the entire congress, senate, cia, fbi, nsa and mainstream media and now Obama who will not hold the “nuremberg trials” and subsequent executions that the world deserves.”

David Morrison, Good news for you if you missed it; seems with several others you have, including Mr Scheer, seemingly.

QUOTE:

November 10, 2008

Osama bin Laden is planning an attack against the United States that will “outdo by far” September 11, 2001, an Arab newspaper in London has reported.

And, a former senior Yemeni al-Qaeda operative said, the terrorist organisation has entered a “positive phase”, reinforcing specific training camps around the world that will lead the next “wave of action” against the West.

The warning, on the front page of an Arabic newspaper published in London, Al-Quds Al-Arabi - and reported widely in the major Italian papers - quotes a person described as being “very close to al-Qaeda” in Yemen.

The paper is edited by Abdel al-Bari Atwan, who is said to have been the last journalist to interview bin Laden, in 1996.

Bin Laden is himself closely following preparations for an attack against the US and aims to “change the face of world politics and economics”, the report says.

[They must be damned busy down in Langley VA too eh? Where’s Cheney currently?]

BIN LADEN ‘PLANS NEW ATTACK ON US’ - November 10, 2008
http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/bin-laden-plans-new-a ttack-on-us/2008/11/10/1226165435339.html

Truthdig gently demurred when I stated that Scheer did not supply the facts about US aggression in Georgia.  And they were right.  In a previous article Scheer did conceive the war as a neocon ploy to help win the election.  I apologize for my error.  For this one particular case out of a whole sequence of cases extending into the future where I expect to see a vigorous attack on Obiden for causing a new Cold War. If in fact he does so.

I expect that someone is hold a loaded wallet to Scheer’s head and he has to pick his spots.  In this important case he did, and should be given credit for it.

Sepharad is a total other case, however, a talented proponent of the murderous ideology of Likud Zionism which Obama appears to be identifying with in his apppontments.

The War on Terrorism was implemented not only by the money of the Zionist ruling class, but by professionals like Sepharad who help censsor the media.  The mass murder, torture, arbitrary imprisonment, racial bigotry, class impovrishment was largely imported into the US from arpatheid Israel, and promoted by truth agents like Sepharad.

Now she is justifiy a military draft like one they have in Israel,justifying Emmanuel’s serving in the Israel army, justifying Gates’ promotion of increasing and updating nueclear weapons, and putting first strike weapons in Poland to—heh, heh, defend against Iran attacking Europe with their non-existent nuclear weapons.

The books she advocates are on the level of Joan Peters’  FROM TIME IMMJEMORIAL. Chomsky, a childhood bi-national Zionist who worked on a Kibbutz when he was young states about it in UNDERSTANDING POWER p. 244: 

“It was a big scholar-looking book with lots of footnotes,  which proported to show that the Palestinians were all recent immigrants [i.e. to the Jewish settled areas of Palistine…]... It got hundreds of rave reviews….Here was a book that proved that there were really no Palestinians!... If Israel kicked them out there was no moral issue….

“Well, one graduate student at Princton, a guy named Norman Finkestein, started reading though the book….It turned out the whole thing was a hoax, it was completely faked; it was probably put together by some intelligence agency…”

Well, they finally got Finklestein fired and blacklisted from academia, and refused admission to Israel despite his being a Jew and his parents being put in a Nazi concentration camp.  The Israeli power structure, of which Sepharad is a part, is completely vicious and have no compunctions whatever about murder, torture, war, or anything else.

And they have partially hijacked American foreign and domestic policy.  The money of the Zionist ruling class, and the operatives, public officials, public intellectuala and other truth agents are motivated by the Jewish power underlying the Jewish religion.  They are fanatics whose religious preconceptions are implemented politically.  And they are dominant in both American political parties.

Zionist militarism is allied with neoliberalism in a very dangerous combination, dangerous to the people of the world and dangerous to the American people.  Any progressive who does not oppose Zionism is supporting the political counterrevolution that the Bushites acheived in the American power system.  Which Obama seems to be continuing.

The cold war hawks are just pandering for their corporate sponsors.

Obama needs to displace alot of funding from the MIC to a self sustainable energy program for the U.S.

He knows it.
