Israelis See Their Ownership of US Government in Jeopardy
By Dr. Kevin Barrett
February 17, 2013 "Information Clearing House" - Chuck Hagel, President
Obama’s Secretary of Defense nominee, is in trouble. Why? Because he famously
said: “The Jewish lobby intimidates a lot of people up here… I’m not an
Israeli senator. I’m a United States senator.”
On Friday, forty allegedly American Senators blocked Hagel’s nomination with
a filibuster. Their message was loud and clear: “We are not United States
Senators. We are Israeli Senators.”
Alan Hart, former lead BBC Mideast correspondent, expressed
his disgust at the Israeli Senators’
vote on my radio show,
Truth Jihad Radio, this Friday: “This
is treason. Serving a
foreign nation, rather than one’s own,
is not just wrong -
it is treasonous.”
One of the traitors, Sen. Mike Lee (R-Israel), mentioned
Israel sixteen times while grilling
Hagel. Sen. Ted Cruz
(R-Israel) mentioned Israel ten times.
Altogether,
Republican Senators mentioned Israel 64
times during their
hostile cross-examination of Hagel. The
war in Afghanistan -
supposedly America’s most pressing
military issue - was only
mentioned four times.
Those forty Senators don’t care about US troops stuck in the
Afghan quagmire, the place empires go
to die. They don’t
care about the US economy - which, like
the US troops sent
to Middle Eastern quagmires, is
bleeding and dying in wars
dictated by Israel, imposed on America
by Israel… wars whose
only purpose is to serve the interests
of Israel, at the
expense of the interests of the United
States.
Chuck Hagel has pointed out that US interests and Israeli interests don’t
always coincide. That is a massive understatement. The truth is that in
today’s world, US interests and Israeli interests are in stark opposition to
each other.
The US, as Zbigniew Brzezinski suggests in his book The Grand Chessboard,
competes with Russia for influence in central Eurasia; and it competes with
the rising Asian powers, China and India, for energy and mineral resources.
The natural US allies in this part of the world are the Muslim nations. And
the most important potential US ally in the region is Iran. According to
Brzezinski, the US ought to do everything possible to establish good relations
with Iran. His implication is that the US ought to apologize for its terrible
past behavior towards Iran, stop bullying the Iranians over Iran’s peaceful
nuclear power program, end all sanctions, and give Iran most favored nation
status.
But that won’t happen - even though US geopolitical
interests dictate that it must.
Why not? Because Iran will never stop supporting the
Palestinians in their struggle against
genocide in Occupied
Palestine. And that isn’t acceptable to
Israel - which owns
and runs the US government.
The US is bullying Iran on behalf of Israel. In doing so, it
is undermining itself.
But nobody in the US is allowed to mention this. Expressing
even the slightest discomfort with
Israeli ownership of
America, as Chuck Hagel has, is just
not kosher.
US hostility towards Iran is only one example of a
self-destructive policy imposed on
America by Israel. In
fact, the whole “war on terror” - in
reality, a war on Islam
- is an Israeli fabrication.
Benjamin Netanyahu created the “war on terror” in 1979 at the Jerusalem
Conference on International Terrorism (JCIT). As scholar Nafeez Ahmed writes,
the JCIT “established the ideological foundations for the ‘War on Terror.’”
Participants at the conference included George H.W. Bush, Richard Pipes, Sen.
Henry M. Jackson, Shimon Peres, and many other high-level Israeli and US
military, intelligence, and political personalities. Netanyahu’s JCIT proposed
to deceive the American public, and the world, by wildly exaggerating the
dangers of “international terrorism” and even manufacturing a nonexistent
“terrorist threat” to mobilize Western populations behind aggressive policies.
In 1996, Netanyahu, as Prime Minister of Israel, commissioned a paper
entitled “A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm.” The paper’s
lead author was neoconservative Zionist extremist Richard Perle. Co-authors
included such neocon Israel-first fanatics as Douglas Feith and David Wurmser
- the same folks who would lead the War on Terror propaganda campaign after
9/11.
The “Clean Break” document proposed redrawing the map of the Middle East on
behalf of Israel. Iraq would be invaded and shattered into pieces, in
accordance with Israel’s Oded Yinon plan to balkanize the Middle East. Other
Middle Eastern countries would follow. And though the “realm” that needed to
be “secured” was Israel, it would obviously be American troops who would be
bleeding and dying.
The same neocons who wrote the 1996 “Clean Break” paper for Netanyahu produced
an even more damning document in September 2000: The infamous “Rebuilding
America’s Defenses” paper published by The Project for a New American Century
(PNAC), which openly called for a “New Pearl Harbor.” Exactly one year later,
PNAC’s avidly-desired “New Pearl Harbor” arrived in the form of the 9/11
false-flag attack. The war on Islam for Israel went into high gear.
Today, more and more Americans are agreeing with Chuck Hagel:
It’s time for the US to stop being
Israel’s slave. The
9/11-triggered wars-for-Israel are
massively unpopular.
Voters sent powerful antiwar messages
in the 2004, 2006,
2008, and 2012 elections. Mitt Romney,
Netanyahu’s
hand-picked candidate, was soundly
defeated, despite the
overwhelming support he received from
Israel and its Zionist
Power Configuration.
The Israelis correctly see that their ownership of the US
government is in jeopardy. Their
hysterical opposition to
Hagel is a sign of desperation.
When another Hagel vote happens next week, will the
treasonous Senators from Israel win
again? Or will the
Senators from America prevail?
Regardless of whether Hagel is ultimately confirmed, the
battle between the Senators from Israel
and the Senators
from America is educating the American
people about who
really runs their country.
