Ignoring Mr. Cohen¹s insults, his thinking is wrong. He credits the government of Israel with good intentions. In fact, war-loving governments deliberately frighten their citizens. Just as the US government concocted tales of mushroom clouds from Iraq, the Israeli right-wing profits from fear of a nuclear Iran. They actually need voters to be frightened; they want their country threatened; they like bellicose governments in surrounding. The Israeli government has every reason to spread scary lies about Iran.
Israeli newspapers have reported on their government spreading propaganda on the web before: http://www.haaretz.com/hasen/spages/1056648.html Such Israeli government propaganda is well known. In fact readers sometimes wonder if a fake-libertarian is posting the lies on this list. This Twitter story continues to grow on the blog. For example, photos of an Ahmadinejad rally have been passed off as Moussavi supporters: http://www.chartingstocks.net/2009/06/proof-israeli-effort-to-destabilize-ir an-via-twitter/ Readers can see for themselves at the link above. I cut the original post below because Cohen threatened our list moderator with copyright ³violations². But if Cohen honestly cared, he should not have posted the material again in his own message.
