34 YEARS OF ISRAELI POLICY HAVE LAID THE GROUNDWORK FOR ITS UNHOLY WAR IN THE WEST BANK AND GAZA

Ellen Cantarow
April 06, 2002



MIDEAST WATCH


I am Jewish. I am a writer. From 1979 to 1989 I reported for THE VILLAGE VOICE, MOTHER JONES, INQUIRY and other US publications from Israel and the West Bank. During those years I witnessed on the ground the rapid growth of Israel's settlements and the seizure of Palestinian land and water for them: today over half the West Bank's resources now are in Israel's hands. (About a third of Gaza's resources have suffered the same fate.)

I conducted in-depth interviews with ultra-right-wing settlers and settler-leaders whose cry was: 'Let them bow their heads, or let Israel expel them.' I interviewed Palestinian villagers who had suffered settler vigilante actions and read accounts of these by Israeli-Jewish reporters of conscience in HA ARETZ and other Israeli papers. These vigilante actions ran the whole gamut: wanton destruction of property and crops, rampages through villages with cries of 'Death to the Arabs' and smashing of car windows, casual in-the-street humiliation of Palestinian civilians, beatings, murder. Within Israel I witnessed the increasing polarization of Israeli society by the occupation; the growing, virulent racism of new generations. Take, for instance, the Moroccan Jews in Kiryat Shemona, members of Menachem Begin's voting base about whom I wrote for THE VILLAGE VOICE in 1982 and who most commonly told me, 'The only good Arab is a dead Arab.'

When I first arrived in Israel in 1979, a 'Master Plan for the Development of Settlements in Judea and Samaria, 1979-1983' had just been drafted. In it Matityahu Drobles, head of the World Zionist Organization's Department for Rural settlement wrote: 'The disposition of the [Israeli] settlements must be carried out not only around the settlements of the minorities' - by settlements Drobles referred to towns and villages centuries old like Bethlehem and Hebron - 'but also in between them.' Drobles's rationale for this was that 'over the course of time, with or without peace, we will have to learn to live with the minorities and among them [ by 'minorities' Drobles meant the Palestinian people] while fostering good-neighborly relations.' Thus from the start of occupation Israeli policy-makers projected the permanent colonization of the West Bank and, later, Gaza. To single Ariel Sharon out as Israel's exceptional evil - if only he were gone and polite, decent folks like Shimon Peres could guide the nation - is to be oblivious of history. It wasn't under Ariel Sharon that the Drobles Plan was drafted, nor under Sharon that Kiryat Arba was established in 1968, but under Labor. Permanent settlement, retention and expansion of the settlements: this has driven Israeli policy under all every government since 1967.

To rule the land into which it has made its incursions Israel from the late 60s has enforced a military legal code completely separate from the laws governing Israel. The army, the military courts and other elements enforce military rule. Under it, for the past 34 years, collective punishment for the alleged acts of individuals has the order of the day - for example, 23-hour-a-day curfews lasting for weeks on end; the bulldozing of homes. During the years I was writing about the situation, stone-throwing and street demonstrations were what most commonly brought collective punishment. Suicide bombing is a post-Oslo phenomenon triggered by the doubling of settlement population after the accords were signed and by the dawning realization that Oslo consolidated a South African-style plan for permanent Bantustanization of the West Bank. On all my stays in the West Bank I witnessed the daily humiliation of Palestinians at Israeli checkpoints; the casual landscape and social scenery of apartheid (the most obvious and continual manifestations were the checkpoints with differing treatment of Palestinians on the one hand; Israeli Jews and internationals on the other, and the different color of license plates - blue for Palestinians, yellow for Israelis). I interviewed villagers whose homes had been blown up and/or bulldozed by Israeli soldiers. I heard accounts by men and women jailed, abused, and tortured in Israel's prisons (the practice is an established fact acknowledged by Israel 's B'tselem and foreign human rights organizations and is ongoing as I write: THE FINANCIAL TIMES April 6 reported, 'The Israeli human rights organization B'tselem yesterday petitioned the High Court after receiving reports of torture at the Ofer detention center near Ramallah.') About all of the foregoing the Hebrew press was quite open while the US press was almost invariably silent.

We now arrive at the current nightmare. As I write, collective punishment is ratcheted up a thousand fold in full-blown war atrocities committed throughout the West Bank. Israel's war machine has moved into the northern West Bank as well as in Gaza, from which I received an American relief worker's e-mail this morning. For the past week my computer has delivered to me daily - even hourly - desperate e-mails begging for help from international human rights organizations. They plead with me and others in my list serves to call our congress people and senators, protest to the press. One writer, a university researcher by profession, describes looting by Israeli soldiers invading his home: 'I had a little money (about 800 NIS) in the upper drawer of my desk which I got from the bank on Thursday when an invasion was expected . . . I found [the drawer] broken and the money gone.' Another passage, from a different letter, reads: 'Their 'visits' to our houses are no different from [visits by] gangsters. They went to . . . my very close neighbors' houses, they start by asking all of them to stay in one room with their faces against the wall, then they enter all rooms . . . go to the kitchen, collected all the food . . . and start eating it . . . the rest of the food they take . . . with them, they also take jewels, money and electronic equipment . . . Two of my neighbors have heart problems. The first thing they did when they knew about their sickness was to go and get their medicine and destroy it in front of their eyes.' In London's THE INDEPENDENT Robert Fisk confirms, 'The Israeli army . . . is proving once more - as it did in Lebanon - that it is not the 'elite' force it's cracked up to be. It is impossible to dismiss the widespread reports of looting from homes in Ramallah (not least because that is exactlywhat Israeli soldiers used to do in southern Lebanon in 1983); and that brave Israeli academic, Avi Schlaim, has himself charged Israel with extra-judicial killings in Ramallah.'

Other e-mails describe ambulances shot at and stopped from arriving at their destinations; hospitals invaded and medical personnel prevented at gunpoint from carrying out their responsibilities; people bleeding to death while soldiers block, at gunpoint and in tanks, their safe passage to medical relief; corpses rotting in hospital corridors (numerous e-mails warn of the threat of imminent epidemics); relatives forbidden to carry out decent burials (one group of the slain had to be buried in a Ramallah parking lot); civilians shot if they venture out their doors; massive looting and vandalizing of homes; cultural institutions invaded and files destroyed; electrical systems for water pumps destroyed so that whole urban areas have their water supplies cut off; internationals and Palestinian press members wounded by Israeli gun-fire. As I write this on April 6, the most urgent e-mail of today is entitled, 'Deliberately Created Humanitarian Crisis Reaches Intolerable Point April 6th, 2001, 11AM,' and describes six Nablus field hospitals with scores of people in serious-to-critical condition, doctors forced to operate with minimal equipment. In one such improvised center, corpses rot in the operating room while Israeli snipers fire on anyone trying to enter or leave. In Jenin 50 houses are reported seriously damaged by Apache helicopter fire, 20 people injured and bleeding in the street. There is much, much more.

Like Nero, President Bush has fiddled while Rome burns and has issued too little too late. What is needed is an immediate order for withdrawal and a threat of economic sanction (this is what President Eisenhower did in the Suez Crisis of 1956, resolving it immediately.) What is needed is for Colin Powell to be on the ground now, not a week from now or this coming Sunday. Sharon, the Milosevic twin ordering these atrocities, is the self-same war criminal who commanded the infamous Unit 101 which killed 99 defenseless civilians at Kibyeh in October, 1953; who in August, 1977 ordered the destruction of 2000 Gaza homes and expulsion from them of 16,000 civilians during an Israeli 'pacification' onslaught in the strip; who oversaw the IDF while it enabled the Phalangist massacre of over a thousand Palestinian civilians in the Beirut refugee camps Sabra and Shatila in 1982; who triggered the second intifada when, with an escort of 1000 soldiers, he 'visited' Al Aksa mosque in September, 2000 - a visit followed next day by the IDF's shooting of Palestinian demonstrators at the mosque.

I am old enough to remember a childhood just after World War II. I am filled with a mix of grief, helplessness, despair and anger as Israel, pretending to act in my name and using the Nazi holocaust against the Jews to exonerate its crimes, proceeds with a clear effort to obliterate the economy, the social, political and cultural institutions, and the entire infrastructure of the Palestinian people. Those who do not speak out against the abominations these horrors are complicit by their silence. Those who exonerate or apologize for Israel as it commits them are guilty by association.

A NICE EDITORIAL FOR YOU ZIONOID NUTS TO READ-ENJOY!

There is a growing number of Jewish-Americans who are speaking out against the agenda of the right wing in Israel. The problems is that because there is not a similar voice speaking out against Arab fascism and Arab intentions to destroy the state of Israel we are forced to be muted, least our protests be used by the rejectionists as propoganda to destroy Israel. The anti-Israel fervor in Europe and elsewhere only further complicates the problem.
Had Arafat been willing to negotiate a peaceful settlement, there likely would have already been an uprising in Israel AGAINST the Settlers. Most Israelis don't care about the Settlements or the Settlers. THey care about the safety of Israel.

So until you begin to voice equal abhorrence for the intentions and practices of those who would have all of ISrael destroyed there is little that the outside world can do.

Your use of derogatory terms to describe Zionists is also not helpful, as I am a Zionist (I believe there should be a Jewish homeleand in the land of Israel) and I am also supporter of Palestinian state.

At least the Cowboy sometimes differentiates by using the term Likkudnik.


Peace.

Thank God at least some Jews are firmly opposing what Israel has done and is doing to the Palestininans. Future generations of Jews will inevitably have to pay a big price for the terrible sins of this generation. Hopefully there will be enough 'good Jews' around to mitigate this price substantially.

Re: JC's; 'Not enough criticism for Palestinian violence?'

Oh my!

Hum, here we have a basically unarmed people fighting tanks and APC's full of IDF thugs armed to the gills with an assortment of F-16's and Apache helicopter gunships bristling with hellfire/TOW antitank missiles with their crude bombs and their bare hands and JC & Seth want them to be crucified?

In Hungry 1956 the world lauded the brave Hungarians for fighting Soviet tanks with Molotov cocktails and bared hands.

At Tiannaman Square Chinese students fought army tanks the same way.

So what do we do with the Palestinian's plight? We arm the Zionist LIKUDNIK thugs and support their Jewish asses financially, politically and save their them, time and again, at the United Nations!

Time to sell weapons ( on EZ credit terms ) to the Paly's and let them kick Jewish arse!

JC at least I don't have this sought of thing residing in my heart:

'the only good jew is a lamp'

because that is the sought of language that is pervading the internet. AZCowboy is right...It is high time decent Jews came out of the woodwork and called a spade a spade. THIS OCCUPATION IS KILLING TWO PEOPLE'S. THE PALESTINIANS ARE BEING PHYSICALLY KILLED AND THE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE BEING SPIRITUALLY KILLED. IT IS POISONING ISRAELI SOCIETY AND RUINING HER INTERNATIONAL REPUTATION WORLDWIDE. PLUS YOU HAVE THE RISE AND RISE OF ANTI-SEMITISM MAKING A RAPID RETURN-EVEN HERE IN THE LAND OF OZ THERE HAVE BEEN ATTACKS ON JEWISH SYNOGUES AND SCHOOLS-FOR CHRIST'S SAKE LISTEN TO US AND START MAKING A NOISE FOR THAT FAT BASTARD TO STOP. HE IS STARTING TO LOOK MORE AND MORE LIKE 'THE PENQUIN' OUT OF BATMAN TWO MOVIE EVERY DAY- A FAT EVIL GENOCIDAL MANIAC.

All three of you conveniently leave out the continual aggression against Israel by the Arab states and their proxies. This is where folks like you lose credibility with American Jews like myself and the Israelis, not to mention objective others.

You blame everything on Sharon, yet these same acts of aggression were happening under Peres and Barak. They had very different agendas then Sharon.

Until you confront the rejectionist with the same zeal that you confront Sharon, our efforts will be limited.

Lynette - What are you doing to speak out against anti-semitism in Oz?

JC, so according to your theories, the US can be biased toward Israel big time but if the European Union supports the Arab side and makes efforts for peace, then they are anti-jewish???????
Enough is enough, the holocaust is not going to last forever as an excuse and the revisionist movements in Israel are finally telling the other side of history. Remember JC, there is always the other side of the story. I highly recommend you to take a look at the Subaltern Studies Field, and try to answer this question; Can the subaltern speak? Then, when you find your answer, please apply it to the Palestinian-Israeli conflict.

Raquel - There is significant amount of anti-Israel propoganda flooding college campuses in the USA. There are commentators who speak out against the settlement policies everyday in AMerican newspapers. Many of them are Jewish.

The USA gives billions of dollars a year to Arab countries.

The US Gov't has opposed settlements for decades.

If Europe was as biased against Israel as the USA is biased against the Palestinians, I'd have no complaints.

I have lived 29 years in Europe and three in the US (where I am now)Every time there is a terrorist attack in Israel, the Spanish TV (as the american TV) interrupts the normal news and puts images of the attacks. I have not seen the same thing in the US (previous to this conflict) on how the Israelis bulldozz houses, farms, trees, and water deposits. It is difficult to see in the American news the equivalent of Hamas in Israel, ie, the extremist right who are occupying territories protected by their loyal army and violating human rights constantly.

Perhaps it is because I read a range of publications, such as Tikkun, The Progressive, In These Times, NewsMax, The New York Times that I see images of these settler activities fairly regularly.

I'm not saying that mainstream American media isn't biased towards Israel. I'm saying that while they are biased, they also provide the Palestinian perspective and can be critical of Israel.

I don't see an equivalent level of bias in the European press, much less the Arab press.

INCREDIBLE FACTS FOR THOSE, WHO HAVE SHORT MEMORY:

The books presented below do explain what is going on in the U.S. if the 'chosen' Jews and their false god Yahve are concerned:

1/ A Program For The Jews by Rabbi Harry Waton, New York, 1939 of which the purpose was to convince Hitler that in his best interest is to cooperate with Jews for the common good of mankind. The Rabbi said:
'When the Jews declared war against Germany (1934) I saw that that was a suicidal policy.'

2/ Israel In War With Jews (Adolf Hitler Founder of Israel) by Hennecke Kardel, 1974, 2nd edition 1997, available at ,,, New Century Press toll free tel. (800)5192465, with every books store on order, or or at the Modjeskis' Society Dedicated to Preservation of Cultures, P.O.Box 193, San Diego, CA 92038. The price for this book with the Society is 17 bucks S&H included. Also look for Kardel's name at any Search Engine or ask t_pioro@....(...@yahoo.com) for details;

3/ Explaining Hitler by Ron Rosenbaum, 1998, where in on p.313 posthumously Hitler said: 'Who created Israel? There wouldn't have been Israel without the Shoah (Holocaust)'.

4/ Barbarians (Jews) Inside The Gates (of the U.S.) by Donn de Grand Pre, 2000, at GSG & Associates, P.O.Box 590, San Pedro, CA 90733.

5/ Jews as tools of tyrants of the Soviet Union, Nazi Germany and post-war Poland in the book by John Sack 'An Eye For An Eye', New York,1995.
(check out: )

6/ They Dare To Speak Out by Congressman R. Findley. About facts regarding U.S.- Israel relationship read also in his Deliberate Deceptions, New York,1995.

And now, please excuse for pointing out two most intriguing books, compatible with the previous six: The Bible-The Devil's Book by Jos Rogiers, Cymophane Publishing, Sweden proving that the doctrine of Torah brings our World to ruin, and Jesus Lived In India (& died there) by Holger Kersten, Element Books Ltd, England, claiming that Moses' grave is located and preserved in a small mausoleum in Booth at the foot of the Mount Nebo, Kashmir, the Promised Land in India!

But they are less intriguing if one considers archeological discoveries of Italians and Israelis (1975-1995) that the tyrant Moses' Bible is a compilation of myths; that the Exodus never occured; and that short existence of pastoral Israel (1000-750 BC) was preceded by mighty Imperiums of Egypt and Ebla (Syria) with their vassal kingdoms of Canaan and Palestine, and Ebla's Sun God Is-Ra-El (see notes 04 & 42 to the Israel In War With Jews).

The Black Book of Communism (destructing private ownerships) by Stephanie Courtois, 1999, explicitly explains why the half Jew Adolf Hitler started the WWII. It also in a subtle manner deconspires the Jewish invention - Communism. And the Hitler's Jew: The Secret History of David Ben-Gurion, as the greatest enemy of Jewish people during the WWII, reveals that he prompted events that helped the Final Solution for the Zionists could use Nazis as the Nazis could Zionists. Few examples are Jew Baron von Mildenstein, head of the Jewish Department of the SS, as well as Jew Reinhardt Heydrich, the right hand, a mascot of Hitler, who divided Jews into two categories - Zionists and no-Zionists, the formers proclaimed by Hitler as having rights to the Palestine. (see The Defamation of Pius XII by Ralph McInerny, 2001).

Admittedly on February 8,1930 and on May 15,1931 Pius XI condemned Communism but on November 17, 1933 the U.S. recognized U.S.R.R.!! In 1936 Spain had to fell into Bolshevik hands with the American Legion on their side.

'Communism teaches and seeks two objectives: Unrelenting class warfare and absolute extermination of private ownership. Not secretly or by hidden methods does it do this, but publicly, openly, and by employing every and all means, even the most violent. To achieve these objectives there is nothing which it does not dare, nothing for which it has respect or reverence; and when it has come to power, it is incredible and portentlike in its cruelty and inhumanity. The horrible slaughter and destruction through which it has laid waste vast regions of eastern Europe and Asia are the evidence; how much an enemy and how openly hostile it is to Holy Church and to God Himself is, alas, too well proved by facts and fully known to all. Although We, therefore, deem it superfluous to warn upright and faithful children of the Church regarding the impious and iniquitous character of Communism, yet We cannot without deep sorrow contemplate the heedlessness of those who apparently make light of these impending dangers, and with sluggish inertia allow the widespread propagation of doctrine which seeks by violence and slaughter to destroy society altogether. All the more gravely to be condemned is the folly of those who neglect to remove or change the conditions that inflame the minds of peoples, and pave the way for the overthrow and destruction of society.' (QUADRAGESIMO ANNO,
ENCYCLICAL OF POPE PIUS XI ON RECONSTRUCTION OF THE SOCIAL ORDER, May 15,1931)

7/ And this is a must reading too:
The Bible (Exodus 23:24 & Daniel 3:29 or 96); The Koran (Jinn 72:17); The Gospels (John 8:44) because for Muslims not Yahve is a god, but Allah. Allah has had no son and Jesus is a Prophet as Muhammad was. For Israelis not Allah is a god, but Yahve is. Yahve has had no son. Jesus was a son of a Roman soldier and Jews are waiting for a Messiah because Christ was not. Talmuds (Palestinian and Babylonian) would explain that goyims are beasts, and the much more. If you add to this The Beasts of the Apocalypse by Olivia Marie O'Grady, First Amended Press, 2001, USA, how the 'chosen people' ever since the Moses are implementing a consistent program geared toward world domination with manifold disastrous results, you will get the whole picture clear.

America on the brink.

Oppose this Zionist war against America!
“Against the insidious wiles of foreign influence -- I conjure you to believe me, fellow citizens… history and experience prove that foreign influence is one of the most baneful foes of republican government.”
--George Washington

“Israel controls the United States Senate.”
-- Sen. William Fulbright

“Every time we do something you tell me America will do this and will do that . . . I want to tell you something very clear: Don't worry about American pressure on Israel. We, the Jewish people, control America, and the Americans know it.” ---Ariel Sharon, October 3, 2001.

This issue of the Duke Report is probably the most important one that I have ever written. You who read these words are among the too few that fully understand the realities of Zionist power in America. It is crucial that you act immediately to share the information in this report to everyone you know. At this time, my job is a difficult and thankless endeavor. Now, more than ever, I need your support so I can reach the American people the truth they must hear before it is too late.

Many people wait to act until things really get bad. If you are someone who has put off getting more active in our cause, now is the time! Never in all of American history has our freedom, security and prosperity been more threatened! Every true American patriot must act now to protect the rights and heritage of our people.

America is on the brink of a global war that may well lead us to utter ruin. Cheered on by the Jewish media and the Jewish Lobby, the White House has already launched a series of devastating attacks on Afghanistan. The ultra-powerful Jewish Lobby now screams for a much wider war, a global war to supposedly protect us from terrorism.

If the war is widened, it will not save us from terrorism; it will make certain that we suffer from it. It would radicalize and motivate millions of people around the world to support terrorism against America. Make no mistake about it, this war is a war against America! It can only deeply harm our nation and our people!

Only Israel benefits from this war. The Zionist warmongers in media and government seek to use America’s guns and money to strike devastating blows at Israel’s enemies. They also know that the ensuing war fever will shift attention away from Israel’s brutal terrorism and suppression against the Palestinian people. Here’s how this war will have catastrophic effects on America:

· Every American attack on foreign nations will greatly increase hatred against America and spawn more terrorists who want to strike back at us.

· It will focus Arab anger away from Israel and toward America. Terrorism against America will accelerate as we become the primary target.

· As shown by the aftereffects of September 11, such terrorist acts will have a devastating affect on the American economy.

· Going to war for Israel’s benefit will cost both American military and civilian lives. And. every American taxpayer will end up paying its multibillion dollar price tag.

· With unemployment skyrocketing, business suffering, and our economy is going into recession, instead of government giving tax breaks to ailing business and consumers, it plans a massive spending spree.

· American Constitutional freedoms are under the greatest assault in American history. Top government officials seek to eradicate many Constitutional rights.

· In conjunction to the loss of freedoms, the government authorized the largest and most powerful government “secret police” force in the history of the world.

The Big Lie!

Even before the blood had dried from the terror attacks on New York and Washington, the mass media and the Zionist Lobby began to manipulate American public opinion for the Jewish agenda.

Interspersed with the media coverage of terrible carnage of September 11, every TV network repeatedly ran film of of protestors celebrating in Palestine. Over and over throughout this traumatic day America and the world saw horrendous scenes of death and destruction constantly juxtaposed to Palestinian celebrations.

So, on the one hand the media depicted Palestinians as celebrating and told us that Osama Bin Laden was the prime suspect, then on the other hand they told us the attack had nothing to do with America’s Israel First policy. They did everything they could to divert the American people from realizing clearly that our support for Israel directly led to the carnage.

The media repeatedly told us that the perpetrators were crazy cowards who were attacking us because they hated America’s freedom and democracy. George Bush later set that big lie in stone by repeating the media’s big lie when he addressed Congress a week after the Tragedy:

Americans are asking 'Why do they hate us?'

They hate what they see right here in this chamber: a democratically elected government. Their leaders are self-appointed. They hate our freedoms…

The media did not bother to tell the American people that the attack occurred on the anniversary of the League of Nations Proclamation of the British Mandate, which was made public in Palestine on September 11, 1922. The British Mandate was the first major step toward implementation of the Balfour Declaration; the founding of a Jewish State in what is now Israel. September 11 is a day of infamy for the Palestinians and they apparently sought the same for America.

The media bosses had to know of the significance of that date. But, no major news source even mentioned it. The date can be found in many historical dating indexes, including Important Dates in History.

At the same time the media blamed Bin Laden for being the mastermind behind the attack, they purposefully hid his real motivation. Every media outlet in the world has full access to his past interviews. He has never said a word against democracy or freedom. In 1998, ABC news interviewed Laden and asked him about the previous attack on the World Trade Center. He praised the attackers and gave the reasons why he opposes America. Here are some excerpts of the broadcast by ABC three years ago:

“I say to them that they (Americans) have put themselves at the mercy of a disloyal government, and this is most evident in Clinton's administration…We believe that it represents Israel inside America. Take the sensitive ministries such as the Secretary of State and the Secretary of Defense and the CIA, you will find that the Jews have the upper hand in them. They make use of America to further their plans for the world…”

“For over half a century, Muslims in Palestine have been (by the Jews) slaughtered and assaulted and robbed of their honor and of their property. Their houses have been blasted, their crops destroyed…

The media knew why America was attacked from day one. They knew all along it was because of our Israel First foreign policy. They knew that the attackers viewed America as under control of Zionists and that it has been used to support Israel and to attack Israel’s enemies.

Saying the September 11 suicide bombers attacked America because they hate democracy is as ridiculous as saying a wolves eat rabbits because they hop. The truth is Wolves don’t eat rabbits because they hop, but because they are food. Arab terrorists struck America not because it is a democracy, but because it supports Israel. You won’t read about any plane bombs crashing into Switzerland or Iceland, two long-enduring democracies.

The Big Lie about attacking democracy is to cover up the obvious truth that the terrorist acts happened in retaliation for America’s unconditional support for the terrorist state of Israel and its leader who is one of the world’s most blood-stained terrorists; Ariel Sharon.

The Jewish media felt compelled to lie and divert people with a bogus reason for the terrorist acts. If Americans clearly understood that the fact that Israel’s control of our foreign policy was the primary cause of this tragedy, people might ask obvious questions, such as:

Is America’s support of Israel really worth it?

· Is it worth the lives of 6,000 American victims lost on 9/11
· Is it worth the one trillion dollars of damage to our economy?
· Is it worth the 200 billion dollars of American taxpayer’s money sent to Israel since its inception?
· Is it worth the additional trillions of dollars we have spent for higher petroleum costs? (The Arab oil-weapon response to our pro-Israel policies)
· Is it worth the loss of our Constitutional Rights and freedoms?
· Is it worth alienating 99 percent of the people of the Mideast for 1 percent?
· Is it worth it to support a nation created by terrorism and ethnic cleansing and whose leader is a long-time terrorist who is responsible for the death of 2000 men, women and children refugees in Lebanon?
· Is it worth it to support a nation that has committed terrorist acts of murder and destruction against the United States? (Such as the Lavon Affair and the attack on the American Navy ship, the U.S.S Liberty)
· Is it worth it to support a nation who spies on us? (Such as the Jonathan Pollard Case)
· Is it worth it to support a nation who steals from us? (Such as the theft of enriched uranium for Israel’s illegal atomic bombs)
· Is it worth it to support a nation that sells our most secret defense technology to America’s most dangerous enemy, the Red Chinese?
· Is it worth it to allow a foreign nation to have the strongest lobby in our own American government?
· Is it worth it for Israeli agents to bribe American candidates with vast sums of campaign money so they will put the interests of Israel over America?

The fact that the media could so unanimously cover up the real reason for the attack of September 11 is clear proof of the Jewish power over it.
And now this Jewish-controlled media is beating the drums for a massive war. This is same Jewish media that for years has constantly criticized and ridiculed American patriotism. Right up until September 11, the media daily characterized George Bush as the village idiot who stumbled into the Presidency. Now that Bush may embrace Israel’s Holy War against the Palestinians and their allies, he has suddenly become a great leader who will give us a wonderful victory in the glorious war ahead.
The same leftist Jewish bosses and media personnel who have subverted every true American patriotic interest to Israel’s agenda over the past 50 years, have now put an American flag everywhere in sight, and solemnly tell us that George Bush’s campaign to “rid the world of evil” is not in the least bit, too ambitious.

Israel’s record of terrorism against America

Could Israel have had involvement in this terror attack on America? Before anyone dismisses that possibility they should consider Israel’s long record of covertly committing terrorism against the United States.

Israel’s record of terrorism against us is pretty clear and very damning. In 1956, Israel plotted to blow up American installations in Egypt and then blame the carnage on the Egyptians. It was a treacherous attempt to get America to go to war against their enemies. Only by the slightest luck was the plot exposed. The Israeli Defense Minister, Lavon, had to resign over the affair. In 1967, during another war with their Arab neighbors, Israel mercilessly attacked a clearly marked, flag-flying U.S. Navy intelligence ship: the USS Liberty.

Israel used unmarked fighters and first attacked the radio antennas attempting to prevent America from learning it was an Israeli attack. Then they bombed and strafed the ship. Finally, they used unmarked boats to torpedo the USS Liberty and try to sink her. They even machine gunned the Liberty’s deployed yellow life rafts to make certain there were no survivors. Through incredible ingenuity and heroism, the Liberty’s crewmembers were able to get a distress call to the American fleet, identify the attackers as Israelis, and remarkably keep the ship afloat.

The Israelis, who had monitored the Liberty’s distress calls, knew that the American fleet was now aware that it was an Israeli attack. Their master plan of sinking the ship, killing all the Americans and blaming it on Egypt, had failed, and they finally withdrew. The American ship was as one crewman described it, “a scene out of hell,” as 34 Americans lay dead and 174 were wounded on the USS Liberty.

Of course, Israel claimed the attack was a mistake, but after investigation both our former Secretary of State and the head of the U.S. Navy said the attack was clearly deliberate. As a further demonstration of Jewish media and government power, stories about the attack died quickly in America’s Jewish press, and the Jewish Lobby was able to prevent a congressional investigation.

In 1986, in another very clever and treacherous action against America, Israeli commandos planted a radio transmitter in Libya and broadcast false information in Libyan code that indicated Libyan guilt for a terrorist bombing against Americans in Germany. Because of this intentional Jewish deception, America bombed Libya and even killed the young daughter of the Libyan President. Deceiving another nation into going to war must be considered a new height of treachery. Israel’s action was not against an enemy, but against the nation who has been Israel’s greatest benefactor, the United States of America.

Up until September 11, 2001, the new century has been a bad one for Israel. The election of a terrorist and mass-murderer, Ariel Sharon, to Prime Minister hurt Israel’s image in much of the world. The ongoing shootings of demonstrating Palestinian teenagers finally began to touch the world’s conscience. World opinion was shifting more and more in favor of the Palestinians.

Just two weeks before the September 11 tragedy, the U.N. World Conference Against Racism labelled Israel a racist, Apartheid state. The Jewish anti-racist chickens had finally come home to roost! Additionally, suicide bombers in Israel were making more and more Israelis question Ariel Sharon’s hard line. How could master-terrorist Sharon pull Israel’s chestnuts from of the fire?

Israel and the terror of September 11

In this atmosphere of Israeli desperation, consider the role of the Mossad, one of the most powerful spy and terrorist organizations on earth. This ruthless organization has specialized in thousands of targeted assassinations all over the world. Most experts say it is now second only to the CIA as a world spy organization. In the Mideast it does not even have a remote competitor.

The Mossad prides itself in infiltrating almost every Palestinian and Arab militant organization in the world. For years the Mossad has considered Bin Laden as their most dangerous enemies. There is little doubt that Mossad agents have penetrated key positions in Bin Laden’s organization.

Now consider the large number of men involved in the WTC attack. Could the Mossad have had no informants or agents in such a large, multinational Arab terrorist group? Reason should tell us that even if Israeli agents were not the actual provocateurs behind the operation, at the very least they had prior knowledge of the attack.

Sharon did not warn American authorities and save those lives because he knew such a horrible event would reverse all of Israel’s recent losses. September 11 would be a twenty-first century Pearl Harbor; galvanizing the American people for war; their war! Of course, not warning America about the impending attacks would make Israel a treacherous accomplice in the terror. But, please tell me when Israel or Ariel Sharon has shrunk from treachery.

Zionists has never worried about the loss of innocent life to achieve their ends. The Israeli state was founded on terror such as occurred at Deir Yassin, where Menachem Begin’s thugs brutally murdered over 200 men, women and children and then publicized the atrocity to terrorize the Palestinians into fleeing from their homes and lands.

There is increasing evidence that Israel knew about the September 11 attacks before hand. There have been reports that Ariel Sharon postponed a visit to New York the day of the tragedy. It was reported in the mainstream press that the FBI interviewed an Israeli firm that was warned of the attack two hours before it occurred. Massive trading occurred in the Chicago mercantile commodity markets prior to the tragedy, betting that airline stocks and insurance companies would crash downward. Hundreds of millions of dollars were gained by those traders. The Chicago commodities exchanges are so thoroughly Jewish that the traders often speak in Yiddish, an Eastern European Jewish language.

One fact is irrefutable; Zionists caused the attack on America just as surely as if they themselves had piloted those plane bombs. It was caused by the Jewish control of the American media and Congress and its blind support of over 50 years of Israeli terrorism and treachery against the Palestinians and the other peoples of the Mideast. Their control over our country can be illustrated by the fact that the American government continued to support Israel with guns and money even after it committed direct acts of terrorism against us such as the Lavon Affair, the Assault on the Liberty, and blatant deceptions that pushed America into acts of war.

The truth is that the Zionists only seek Jewish supremacism over the hapless Palestinians; they seek supremacism over us. Jewish supremacists already control the Hollywood movie and television industry, music, and news media. They constitute the most powerful force in the U.S. Congress and government agencies such as the State Department.

The Jewish Supremacists have orchestrated the non-European immigration that will dispossess White Americans the same way that Jewish immigration into Palestine has displaced the Palestinians. They have consciously led the effort to effort to make European Americans a minority in our own country. They seek to destroy the genetic, cultural identity and nationalism of all peoples other than their own. While they preach open borders for us, they preach ultra-nationalism for their own people and support for Israel which has not a religious, but a genetic requirement for immigration.

The fundamental truth is that Jewish Supremacists hate the European people and Christians just as much as they hate the Muslim Arabs. They teach their children fear and hatred toward all Gentiles, and endlessly recite Christian persecutions against them. Their media teaches hatred of their gentile enemies from Pharaoh and Haman to Hitler and Hussein; their hate propaganda is as ancient as the Talmud and as modern as movies such as Shindler’s List.

Zionists have also been the instigators of the globalism that is sweeping away American sovereignty and freedoms. They are the architects of the so-called hate laws that are the first steps to curtailing freedom of speech. And now, in the wake of this global war, they are orchestrating the most massive infringement of rights and freedom in American history.

Jewish supremacism over our government and media has caused American support of the terrorist state of Israel and the ensuing terrorist response against the American people. And now with this war they are making their boldest move yet against us!

A Jewish war against America!

The Jewish supremacists and their servants are screaming for a wider war, a global war that will not protect us from terrorism, but make us more certain to endure it. Make no mistake it about it, this is a Jewish war that is being fought not just against the Arabs, it is a Jewish war against America because it directly against our fundamental interests.

This war could well destroy American prosperity and our most sacred, fundamental freedoms.

I urge every reader of the Duke Report and every member of the European-American Unity and Rights Organization (EURO), to support our boys, but oppose this war. Why should we risk the lives of our young men and the lives of thousands of American civilians to support the criminal actions of Israel?

I urge you to be patriotic for America by opposing this Jewish war, for this Jewish war will do incalculable harm to the United States and her people.

I urge you who have for so long believed but stood on the sidelines, to get active for our people, for our freedoms and for our future.

I urge you to share the truth with your fellow family members, friends, and co-workers.

Better to make a heroic effort today rather than endure brutal oppression tomorrow.

I also urge you to financially support our efforts to awaken the American people. I am encouraged to report to you that our mail boxes and web sites have been flooded with inquiries of Americans who on their own have guessed at the truth. These are Americans who have never before been involved in Patriotic organizations.

In my entire lifetime, I have never seen the interest in our Movement at a higher level. But, our huge Web traffic, printed literature and postage are expensive, so I ask you for your generous help, so I can continue to awaken our people.

And, I call on you, each and every one of you who reads these lines, to reach out to a fellow American and tell him the truth! Never has this call been more urgent than at this moment in history.

The time is now!
Sincerely,
Rep. David Duke
Former member of the House of Representatives

KONFORMIST, Nov.2,2001

Sorry folks, I messed up. I didn't look critically at the following:

http://www.opensciencenetwork.org/theblackday/26.htm

I took it to mean that the second tower to be hit may have been bombed as well (I'm still convinced that both towers, AND THE OTHER BUILDINGS were indeed bombed for other reasons).

The problem was due to the contrast as seen here:

http://www.gilanet.com/wallace/parallax.jpg

The following website has the video footage of the apparent bombing of WTC#7 in the form of individual frames (look to the lower left, and see the white smoke plum rising, while the twin towers are STILL STANDING:

http://www.centex.net/~seymour/id23.htm
(page 9 of the website)

The composite video was bravely removed (by the NSA?) from most websites. I can't find it presently anywhere, but I know it is around somewhere.

Thanks to you folks who caught my glaring error. On the other hand, who cares?? The media will NEVER investigate any of this, and we will NEVER see ALL of the video replayed on television or anywhere else, as it is all being expunged for 'our own good'.
