Bush's War On Iran
By Webster Griffin Tarpley
2-9-6
WASHINGTON, DC -- The NATO intelligence provocation appearing in the
guise of the scurrilous Mohammed cartoons published by the reactionary
newspaper Jyllands Posten of Denmark, and then by a series of other European
publications, has already done much to mobilize the armies, bases, and
treasuries of Europe in support of the lunatic plan to the Bush-neocon
clique for a nuclear sneak attack and punitive expedition against Iran over
the coming weeks or months. As I warned in a red alert for synthetic
terrorism issued on total411.info and other sites in the late afternoon of
Feb. 3, this entire affair has been cynically orchestrated by NATO
intelligence agencies to set the stage for a new world war.
In recent years, Moslem and Arab resentment for the various crimes
of imperialism has been directed primarily against the United States, the
United Kingdom, and Israel. What is new about the present crisis is that
Denmark, Norway, France, and Germany are the main targets this time, while
the usual suspects in London and Washington can remain in the background and
hypocritically condemn the inflammatory cartoons. The result has been a
massive degeneration of the ideological climate of Europe in favor of
militant racism in the form of the Samuel Huntington War of Civilizations.
The Europeans are now far more likely than previously to go to war against
Iran as the tail on the Anglo-American kite. The genocidal demand that the
European Union cut off all aid to the Hamas-led government of Palestine has
become far more likely to succeed.
BILDERGERGERS AND NEOCONS
The evidence strongly suggests that the cartoon provocation was
presented to Atlanticist oligarchs at the meeting of the Bilderberger group
held from May 5 to May 8, 2005 at the Dorint Sofitel Seehotel Überfahrt in
Rottach-Egern, on the shores of the Tegernsee lake in the south German
federal state of Bavaria. (See http://www.bilderberg.org/2006.htm#
Fountainhead for a partial attendance list) The first publication
of the cartoons in Denmark followed in September 2005. This meeting was
attended by the certified neocon fascist madmen Michael Ledeen, Richard
Perle, and William Luti all desperadoes haunted by the prospect of
criminal indictment for their roles in the Iraq aggression, the Plame case,
the Niger yellowcake forgeries, and the Lord Conrad Black embezzlement case.
All three are fanatic proponents of the wider war against Iran, also in the
hope of staying out of jail. Others in attendance included Dutch, Belgian,
and Spanish royalty, top Eurocrats and NATO bigwigs (including NATO
Secretary General Jaap Hoop de Scheffer himself) from Brussels, Rockefeller
and Rothschild international bankers, and such all-purpose villains as Henry
Kissinger. Another prominent participant in the Bavarian Bilderberger group
was Anders Eldrep of Denmark, a Bilderberger regular over the last five
years. This Anders Eldrep (or Eldrup),the chairman of DONG (Danish Oil and
Natural Gas), is the husband of Merete Eldrep, the managing director of
JP/Politikens Hus (JP for Jyllands-Posten), the Danish publishing firm which
owns the newspaper which first published the Mohammed cartoons.
The Bilderberger group, founded after World War II by Britain's
genocidal Prince Philip and the Nazi SS Prince Bernard of the Netherlands,
represents one of the key nodal points where the international finance
oligarchs meet under US-UK leadership to ratify consensus on larger
strategic initiatives. It was for example the Bilderberger meeting held
near Stockholm in Saltsjøbaden, Sweden in the spring of 1973 which secured
the final consensus for the Royal Dutch Shell plans for the October 1973
Middle East War and the attendant "Arab" oil boycott, which looted Japan and
Europe and imposed global austerity to stabilize the US dollar and the
Atlanticist banking system. That financiers' staged oil boycott was the
1973 version of today's "peak oil" hoax.
SOMETHING ROTTEN: POLITIETS EFTERRETNINGSTJENESTE
As for the repeated canard about freedom of the press, all the
countries of the Nordic Council have long maintained press control through
psychological warfare boards with the power to suppress and plant news
stories for propaganda purposes. Sweden is the best-known example, but
Denmark, a NATO member state, is no slouch either. Having directed
political organizing in Denmark for a number of years, the present writer
can also personally attest to the pervasive surveillance of publishing,
political meetings, and public speech (as of the mid-1980s) maintained by
the PET (Politiets Efterretningstjeneste), the Danish Security Intelligence
Service. The PET is a sinister and stealthy organization staffed by
devotees of the Danish monarchy, and its mandate is unchecked. (See
http://www.pet.dk/English.aspx for a chilling self-presentation, including
the ominous news that "the new Danish legislation on terrorism expands the
scope of the Intelligence Service so that PET's investigations, to a higher
degree than previously, may provide the basis of actual criminal cases or
other more offensive initiatives." Author's emphasis, WGT.) Denmark, in
short, is a monarchist police state.
Denmark has been largely a British puppet state over the last two
centuries since Lord Nelson burned the Danish fleet in a sneak attack on
Copenhagen which put an end to Denmark as an independent power. For the
broadest political purposes, provocations coming from Denmark can be thought
of as being signed by the warmonger Tony Blair personally. The current
Danish neocon regime is in any case a member of Bush's coalition of the
willing engaged in the illegal occupation of Iraq.
The editor of Jyllands Posten who ordered the publication of the
cartoons is Flemming Rose, who has extensive connections to Daniel Pipes,
another neocon fascist madman who runs Campus Watch, a neo-McCarthyite
witch-hunting organization which vilifies American professors who criticize
Israel or show sympathy for the Palestinians. President Bush wanted to name
Daniel Pipes to the board of the US Institute of Peace, a government-funded
arm of the State Department which organizes conferences and publishes books.
When the raving extremist Pipes turned out to be too widely discredited to
obtain Senate confirmation for this post, Bush forced his nomination through
with a summer 2003 recess appointment to a temporary term at USIP without
Senate approval. Daniel Pipes is the nepotist son of Richard Pipes, a
Sovietologist who was a leading figure in George H.W. Bush's 1976 Team B,
the incubator of today's neocon clique. At the time of his recess
appointment, Daniel Pipes was accused by the very moderate Arab-American
Institute of "hatred and bigotry" in the context of his "bizarre obsession
with all things Arab and Muslim."
(http://www.aaiusa.org/pr/release08-14-03.htm) This is the sick, racist
point of view embraced by Jyllands Posten.
Flemming Rose provided details of his conversation with Daniel Pipes
in a later article. They talked about the need to mobilize Europe for the
war of civilizations against the Moslem world. Rose wrote: "Pipes is
surprised that there isn't greater alarm in Europe over the challenge that
Islam represents thanks to falling rates of fertility and a weakened sense
for its own history and culture." (Flemming Rose, "The Threat from Islamism,
Jyllands-Posten, October 29, 2004) The relation of such racist arguments to
the Mohammed cartoons provocation should be clear enough.
GENERAL WAR IN SIGHT
With these facts, a strong prima facie case for preconcert in the
cartoon affair emerges. The convergence of the US-UK nuclear lynch mob's
dragging Iran before the United Nations Security Council in a parody of the
spring 2003 US-UK proceedings against Iraq, plus the cartoons affair, means
that a new general war, perhaps more like the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648)
than futuristic scenarios of World War III, is now in sight.
EURO-TRAITORS ON THE MARCH
The impact of the cartoon affair has been to re-invigorate the
already considerable racist and xenophobic forces of European society,
making these tendencies more respectable in parts of the mainstream. For
the moment, xenophobic reactionaries Euro-traitors in every sense are in
power in France, Germany, Italy, Denmark, the Netherlands, and other
countries of the old continent. None of these governments would dare resist
Rice and Straw in a war vote at the UN. Of course, if these regimes decide
to play Mussolini to Bush's Hitler and actually send their troops to join
the Anglo-Americans in war with Iran, most of them would fall, but that
would come too late to avoid the looming general conflagration.
The alleged free speech defended by ranting Atlanticist hypocrites
(including Cheney) thus amounts to the opposite: the defense of a society
incessantly manipulated by out-of-control secret intelligence agencies with
the help of the controlled corporate media a martial law society on the
road to the endless war desired by the invisible government and the neocons.
PRECONCERT ON BOTH SIDES
Danish embassies have been burned in Syria, Lebanon, and Iran.
There are indications that some of these violent riots were not spontaneous,
but were the work of mercenary rent-a-mobs stoked and steered by CIA, MI-6
and Mossad. In Beirut, UN officials told CNN they knew about the riot
before it happened. But the embassy attacks, plus world-wide threats,
protests, and economic boycotts, have gone far to convince European public
opinion that the war of civilizations between the west and the Moslem world
is indeed inevitable.
In 2003, Germany, France, Belgium, and other European nations
rejected the Bush-Blair plan for an illegal aggressive war against Iran. Si
nce, then, Atlanticist (US-UK) intelligence networks have been working to
overthrow or subvert the leading European governments. In Germany,
Chancellor Schroeder has been replaced by Mrs. Merkel, a puppet of Wall St.
and the City of London. In France, the Chirac presidency, weakened by its
own foolish support of last year's European constitution, has been wholly
subverted by last fall's "Moslem" riots, which were led by old Nazi networks
sheep-dipped in Islam under the guidance of Atlanticist intelligence
agencies. The beneficiary has been the Anglo-Saxon Trojan horse, Sarkozy.
Chirac has even issued his own nuclear threats against Iran. The days are
long gone when Chirac could reject the war of civilizations and be cheered
for it by Algerian students, as he was in the spring of 2003. The one
valuable lesson most Europeans had learned from the twentieth century the
utter and suicidal futility of war has been called into question by the
cartoons affair.
IF A TERRORIST ATTACK OCCURS, BLAME CHENEY
Since last July, the world has known of the order from Dick Cheney
to the Pentagon to prepare for the atomic bombing of Iran in the wake of a
new 9/11 terrorist atrocity. Given Cheney's manifest aggressive intent, it
should also be plain that he is not occupying his time doing rain dances in
the hopes of conjuring up a new terrorist attack. Cheney and his invisible
government backers in the US-UK rogue network are actively preparing a new
9/11 or Gulf of Tonkin provocation with weapons of mass destruction in order
to secure the pretext for their attack. Our advice to the world is
accordingly: if mysterious WMD incidents occur anywhere in the world, don't
start looking for the swarthy perpetrators sporting turbans in the caves of
Pushtunistan. Look instead in Dick Cheney's office.
THE REAL CASUS BELLI: THE IRAN OIL BOURSE
Much of the real urgency of the Anglo-American attack on Iran comes
not from nonexistent nuclear devices, but from the planned March 20 opening
of the Iran oil bourse, the first international exchange since 1945 where
buyers and sellers of oil can conduct their oil transactions using a
currency other than the US dollar in this case, the euro. The Iran oil
bourse threatens the number one pillar of US-UK world domination the
global hegemony of the dollar, as anchored in the dollar's central role in
oil and other raw materials transactions. With the Iranian oil bourse, as
much as $1 trillion of central bank reserves may flee the US greenback into
the euro, the yen, and other currencies. The concomitant exodus of hot
money from Wall Street would then puncture the US stock bubble, the US
housing bubble, and the US bubble economy generally, leading to a collapse
of the dollar in international exchange and the dumping of hundreds of
billions of dollars in US treasury bonds now in the hands of the Chinese and
Japanese. The transition from today's outmoded and obsolete dollar-based
system to a dollar-euro-yen system of fixed parities, gold settlement, and
high-technology exports to the developing sector could be easily handled by
peaceful negotiations, but this is exactly what the neocons are determined
to prevent. Ironically, the neocon obsession for general war to preserve
dollar dominance, by almost guaranteeing the closure of the straits of
Hormuz, will lead to an even more catastrophic dollar collapse and world
depression than the peaceful Iranian oil bourse ever could. The neocons, in
other words, are playing a losing hand. Only fools would join them.
BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH
When might the new hostilities begin? General Sharon, before he was
incapacitated, had told the Israeli Defense Force to be ready to strike Iran
in March. The former US Iraq weapons inspector Scott Ritter says that the
attack order has already been given. Vladimir Zhirinovsky, the maverick
Russian politician, thinks that the most likely date is March 28, coincident
with the Israeli elections. Zhirinovsky has longed served as an auxiliary
to Russian President Putin, and his estimate may benefit from the insights
of the Russian special services. Whenever the attack comes, it is clear
that the NATO logistics and manpower infrastructure the German railways,
the French air force and navy, the Italian ports and air bases will play a
vital role. Without these, the US could hardly operate in the Middle East
at all. Today, the US neocons may be offering occupation rights in various
secondary target countries, like Syria, to tempt countries like France or
Italy into joining the war. When Hitler attacked the USSR in June 1941, he
was joined by troops from Italy, Romania, Hungary, Finland, Spain, and other
European states. These auxiliaries had received promises of their own, but
they fared poorly. The parallel is suggestive for the path some Europeans
wish to tread today.
RATTLING THE CAGES OF OFFICIAL WASHINGTON
Last Wednesday, a Home Depot in the Washington DC suburb of
Gaithersburg, Maryland was evacuated because of suspicious package emitting
a strange smell, which turned out to be a harmless videotape recorder. Last
Friday, the Rachel Carson Elementary School in the same community, which is
part of the region where many federal officials and bureaucrats live and
have their families, was evacuated because of another suspicious package
which a local official claimed looked like an Improvised Explosive Device or
Iraq-style roadside bomb. It was "something like you might see in a war
zone," said the spokesman of the Gaithersburg fire department said to the
radio and television that afternoon. The school is typically attended by the
children of federal employees. But the "IED" also turned out to be a big
nothing. Early this evening, the Russell Senate Office Building was
evacuated because of a nerve gas alert that also proved to be groundless, a
complete false alarm. But a dozen senators had to flee. This escalating
pattern of incidents likely to provoke hysteria among US government
officials betrays the intent of the invisible government to overload the
circuits and facilitate the stampeding of this government into a wider war
full of incalculable danger.
MOSLEMS: DO NOT ACCEPT PROVOCATIONS
Our advice to the Moslem world: DO NOT FALL FOR PROVOCATIONS. From
Count Thurn's 1618 defenestration of Prague to Bismarck's Ems telegram in
1870, big wars have often grown out of staged provocations. For years
former Prime Minister Dr. Mahatir Mohammed of Malaysia, an astute Moslem
observer who knows how the Atlanticists operate, has been telling his
co-religionists that the greatest vulnerability of the oppressors is located
in the weakness of the US dollar. Mahatir's argument has long been that it
is time to stop complaining and dump the dollar. The fall of the dollar
will entail the fall of the International Monetary Fund and of Wolfowitz's
World Bank, the greatest engines of global oppression. Those who burn the
embassies of European countries or attack their citizens risk becoming dupes
serving as recruiting sergeants for the NATO armies and air forces that are
about to strike Iran, currently the leading Moslem state, plus Syria and
others. It is time to break ideological profile, and respond unpredictably
on the international monetary front, where the chances for success are the
greatest.
REFUTE THE BLOOD LIBEL OF 9/11
In terms of the battle of ideas, the other great task for the Moslem
world and for persons of good will everywhere is to contribute to the utmost
to the dismantling and discrediting of the ultimate blood libel against
Islam, the fantastic Atlanticist myth surrounding the events of September
11, 2001. The international 9/11 truth movement has shown how rogue
networks inside the Pentagon and CIA organized those events. Since the
basis of every attack on Islam is 9/11, it is incumbent on Moslems to join
in refuting the myth. This will have the additional effect of eroding
Bush's fanatical political base, and preparing his fall.
WORLD PEACE
In my address to the Inter-Religious Conference in Khartoum, Sudan
in October 1994, I pleaded for a platform of ecumenical and irenic
cooperation among the world's great faiths based in the comprehensive
scientific, technological, and economic development of all nations. This is
the call of Christianity, with its imperative of charity (agape) and faith
expressed through good works, as in the second great commandment: love your
neighbor. This is the call of the doctrine of social solidarity in Islam.
This is the call of Confucian benevolence and the related need for rulers to
promote prosperity and education. These are the ideas reflected in similar
impulses prominent in Buddhism, Judaism, and other faiths. These are ideas
readily accessible to persons of good will whose outlook is purely secular,
whatever their political persuasion. Humanity must act now to neutralize
war provocations, and thus to prevent the horrors of war itself.
