Conned Again
If the change that President-elect Obama has promised includes a halt to America's wars of aggression and an end to the rip-off of taxpayers by powerful financial interests, what explains Obama's choice of foreign and economic policy advisors? Indeed, Obama's selection of Rahm Israel Emanuel as White House chief of staff is a signal that change ended with Obama's election. The only thing different about the new administration will be the faces.
Rahm Israel Emanuel is a supporter of Bush's invasion of Iraq. Emanuel rose to prominence in the Democratic Party as a result of his fundraising connections to AIPAC. A strong supporter of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, he comes from a terrorist family. His father was a member of Irgun, a Jewish terrorist organization that used violence to drive the British and Palestinians out of Palestine in order to create the Jewish state. During the 1991 Gulf War, Rahm Israel Emanuel volunteered to serve in the Israel Defense Forces. He was a member of the Freddie Mac board of directors and received $231,655 in director's fees in 2001. According to Wikipedia, "During the time Emanuel spent on the board, Freddie Mac was plagued with scandals involving campaign contributions and accounting irregularities."
In "Hail to the Chief of Staff," columnist Alexander Cockburn describes Emanuel as "a super-Likudnik hawk," who as chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee in 2006 "made great efforts to knock out antiwar Democratic candidates."
My despondent friends in the Israeli peace movement ask, "What is this man doing in Obama's administration?"
Obama's election was necessary as the only means Americans had to hold the Republicans accountable for their crimes against the Constitution and human rights, for their violations of U.S. and international laws, for their lies and deceptions, and for their financial chicanery. As an editorial in Pravda put it: "Only Satan would have been worse than the Bush regime. Therefore it could be argued that the new administration in the United States could never be worse than the one that divorced the hearts and minds of Americans from their brothers in the international community, which appalled the rest of the world with shock and awe tactics that included concentration camps, torture, mass murder and utter disrespect for international law."
But Obama's advisers are drawn from the same gang of Washington thugs and Wall Street banksters as Bush's. Richard Holbrooke, son of Russian and German Jews, was an assistant secretary of state and ambassador in the Clinton administration. He implemented the policy to enlarge NATO and place the military alliance on Russia's border in contravention of Ronald Reagan's promise to Mikhail Gorbachev. Holbrooke is also associated with the Clinton administration's illegal bombing of Serbia, a war crime that killed civilians and Chinese diplomats. If not a neocon himself, Holbrooke is closely allied with them.
According to Wikipedia, Madeleine Albright was born Marie Jana Korbelova in Prague to Jewish parents who had converted to Catholicism in order to escape persecution. She is the Bill Clinton-era secretary of state who told Leslie Stahl of "60 Minutes" that the U.S. policy of Iraq sanctions, which resulted in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Iraqi children, had goals important enough to justify the children's deaths. Albright's infamous words: "We think the price is worth it."
Wikipedia reports that this immoralist served on the board of directors of the New York Stock Exchange at the time of Dick Grasso's $187.5 million compensation scandal.
Dennis Ross has long associations with the Israeli-Palestinian "peace negotiations." A member of his Clinton era team, Aaron David Miller, wrote that during 1999-2000 the U.S. negotiating team led by Ross acted as Israel's lawyer: "We had to run everything by Israel first." This "stripped our policy of the independence and flexibility required for serious peacemaking. If we couldn't put proposals on the table without checking with the Israelis first, and refused to push back when they said no, how effective could our mediation be?" According to Wikipedia, Ross is "chairman of a new Jerusalem-based think tank, the Jewish People Policy Planning Institute, funded and founded by the Jewish Agency."
Clearly, this is not a group of advisors that is going to halt America's wars against Israel's enemies or force the Israeli government to accept the necessary conditions for a real peace in the Middle East.
Ralph Nader predicted as much. In his "Open Letter to Barack Obama" on Nov. 3, 2008, Nader pointed out to Obama that his "transformation from an articulate defender of Palestinian rights ... to a dittoman for the hard-line AIPAC lobby" puts Obama at odds with "a majority of Jewish-Americans" and "64 percent of Israelis."
Nader quotes the Israeli writer and peace advocate Uri Avnery's description of Obama's appearance before AIPAC as an appearance that "broke all records for obsequiousness and fawning."
Nader damns Obama for his "utter lack of political courage (for) surrendering to demands of the hard-liners to prohibit former President Jimmy Carter from speaking at the Democratic National Convention." Carter, who achieved the only meaningful peace agreement between Israel and the Arabs, has been demonized by the powerful AIPAC lobby for criticizing Israel's policy of apartheid toward the Palestinians whose territory Israel forcibly occupies.
Obama's economic team is just as bad. Its star is Robert Rubin, the bankster who was secretary of the treasury in the Clinton administration. Rubin has responsibility for the repeal of the Glass-Steagall Act and, thereby, responsibility for the current financial crisis. In his letter to Obama, Nader points out that Obama received unprecedented campaign contributions from corporate and Wall Street interests. "Never before has a Democratic nominee for president achieved this supremacy over his Republican counterpart."
Obama's victory speech was magnificent. The TV cameras scanning faces in the audience showed the hope and belief that propelled Obama into the presidency. But Obama cannot bring change to Washington. There is no one in the Washington crowd that he can appoint who is capable of bringing change. If Obama were to reach outside the usual crowd, anyone suspected of being a bringer of change could not get confirmed by the Senate. Powerful interest groups—AIPAC, the military-security complex, Wall Street—use their political influence to block unacceptable appointments.
As Cockburn put it in his column, "Obama, the first-rate Republican," "Never has the dead hand of the past had a 'reform' candidate so firmly by the windpipe." Obama confirmed Cockburn's verdict in his first press conference as president-elect. Disregarding the unanimous U.S. National Intelligence Estimate, which concluded that Iran stopped working on nuclear weapons five years ago, and ignoring the continued certification by the International Atomic Energy Agency that none of the nuclear material for Iran's civilian nuclear reactor has been diverted to weapons use, Obama sallied forth with the Israel lobby's propaganda and accused Iran of "development of a nuclear weapon" and vowing "to prevent that from happening."
The change that is coming to America has nothing to do with Obama. Change is coming from the financial crisis brought on by Wall Street greed and irresponsibility, from the eroding role of the U.S. dollar as reserve currency, from countless mortgage foreclosures, from the offshoring of millions of America's best jobs, from a deepening recession, from pillars of American manufacturing—Ford and GM—begging the government for taxpayers' money to stay alive, and from budget and trade deficits that are too large to be closed by normal means.
Traditionally, the government relies on monetary and fiscal policy to lift the economy out of recession. But easy money is not working. Interest rates are already low, and monetary growth is already high, yet unemployment is rising. The budget deficit is already huge—a world record—and the red ink is not stimulating the economy. Can even lower interest rates and even higher budget deficits help an economy that has moved offshore, leaving behind jobless consumers overburdened with debt?
How much more can the government borrow? America's foreign creditors are asking this question. An official organ of the Chinese ruling party recently called for Asian and European countries to "banish the U.S. dollar from their direct trade relations, relying only on their own currencies."
"Why," asks another Chinese publication, "should China help the U.S. to issue debt without end in the belief that the national credit of the U.S. can expand without limit?"
The world has tired of American hegemony and had its fill of American arrogance. America's reputation is in tatters: the financial debacle, endless red ink, Abu Ghraib, Gitmo, rendition, torture, illegal wars based on lies and deception, disrespect for the sovereignty of other countries, war crimes, disregard for international law and the Geneva Conventions, the assault on habeas corpus and the separation of powers, a domestic police state, constant interference in the internal affairs of other countries, and boundless hypocrisy.
The change that is coming is the end of American empire. The hegemon has run out of money and influence. Obama as "America's first black president" will lift hopes and, thus, allow the act to be carried on a little longer. But the New American Century is already over.

Like Dr Fleming said in another post, Obama enters office with expectations from his supporters which no one could fulfil. That will lead to major disappointment for them, and that's aside from the fact that he will enter office facing problems - some going back decades, but all coming to a head now - which no man could solve or even handle. I suspect that he's as fanatic as some say he is, and I think he may be a little unstable, so let's see how he holds up when it keeps getting worse no matter what he does. He's the most unlucky man alive today. His presidency is doomed, and it will be doomed no matter how good a president he might turn out to be.
Get on You Tube and watch the parade of the East German army that took place in the fall of 1989, with Gorbachev in attendance. With 20 years of hindsight, as you watch you can sense the blindness among the bigwigs in attendance of the change that's about to overcome everyone, as they look on, unaware that they are on the brink of world-changing events that will put them in the ash heap of history. We are in such a period right now. Our 1989 is upon us.
Will the first 'black' president be the last president, or the next to last? We'll see.
Is this guy for real??
First off, in the real world (as opposed to the world of big lie repetition), AIPAC is nowhere near as powerful as the Albanian American Civic League, which got the US to bomb their enemies for 78 straight days.
Aaron David Miller is on record as saying how much he admires Jimmy Carter. 'Pro Israel' Jews loathe Carter, who is a revisionist historian that lies about Israel and thus slanders Jews.
Ross, et al are nothing more than the types of kapos one would expect to work for an antisemitic governing body. Until Rahm Emanual says some of the things that Felix Quigley, Jared Israel, or Francisco Gil White say, he is not any kind of 'pro Israel likudnik' at all. He is just another Jew that has sold his soul to work for the US establishment.
Everyone should read real history: http://www.amazon.com/Blowback-Americas-Recruitment-Disastrous-Domestic/dp/002044995X/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1226462135&sr=8-1
Not the big lie agitprop that this author uses to corroborate his conspiracy nonsense.
"First off, in the real world (as opposed to the world of big lie repetition), AIPAC is nowhere near as powerful as the Albanian American Civic League, which got the US to bomb their enemies for 78 straight days."
Hmm, $3.6 billion and more to Israel in economic aid every year. This doesn't count military expenditures. We went to war with Iraq, destroyed a nation, killed untold millions. A war that was championed by Israeli sympathizers in the Bush administration. A war that may cost us upwards of a trillion dollars. And now, with Rahm Emanual appointed as chief of staff, Obama seems to be signaling to AIPAC that he will tow the party line and get us into a war with Iran.
But, yea, those Albanians, they are the real power brokers.
Hey Slim,
Are you kidding me? AIPAC not as powerful as the Albanian Lobby? Don't we subsidize the very existence of Israel and have done so for more than 50 years? I mean without the Israeli lobby giving hordes of cash to Congressional leaders/candidates, the state of Israel would die. Clinton bombed Belgrade more to deflect some heat off him for the Lewinsky crap than for some third rate lobbyist group with no clout meaning no money. Mr Roberts is no conspiracy nutjob. All you have to do is follow the money flowing out of AIPAC and look at our crazy foreign policy, which is at the point of being suicidal to the American Republic, but rather beneficial to Likudniks everywhere.
Dr. Roberts nails it again - both as to the change which Obama will not bring and the factors that will bring change to America whether Obama or anyone else likes it or not.
@2slim
The Albanian lobby was set by Jewish Americans.
Every major international Jewish organisation supported and lobbied for the US to intervene in Kosovo on behalf of the KLA.
It was Zionist Tom Lantos in 89 addressing a group of Albanians promising Kosovo independence.
The draft resolution in the US for authorisation to bomb Serbia was by a Jewish senator.
@4Robert Bruce
“Clinton bombed Belgrade more to deflect some heat off him for the Lewinsky crap”
Come on! The CIA and other western intelligence services were supporting international Islamic militants and Croatian anti-Serb forces to kill Serbs for the past decade.
The bombing of Serbia was the final stage of this project.
KLA forces who had US armed forces in there ranks and coordinating attacks with NATO against the Serbs. OSCE officials were marking GPS coordinates for NATO bombers prior.
It’s in the Milosevic trail transcripts.
They did the exact same thing in Georgia recently.
Dear Mr. Roberts,
Thanks for an excellent summary of the "whys" and "wherefores" of the horrible mess in which we Americans find ourselves. But your list of crimes did not mention one that is also part of this culture of death and lies, the hideous crime of slaughtering innocent human beings in their mothers' wombs, which Mr. Obama supports. I would add, also, this heinous crime has had a significant influence in our national decline.
Slim @ 2
You say that AIPAC isn't politically powerful in the United States?
Tell us what you're drinking, Slim... we'd all like to get loaded too.
Dr. Roberts' jeremiad (I don't mean that pejoratively) certainly gives no reason for "hope." Perhaps things won't be as bad as he assumes; however, I'd thought all along that the accumulation of crises (bringing conflict with Russia to a head right at the end, as well) would make any Democrat who won the potential real loser.
One critique, though, he makes no connection for his mention of the Jewish ancestry of various Democratic insiders to his argument. I assume it is prejudice in the matter of Middle East policy, but I don't see him connect that to actual policy decisions.
As for Slim, I think he may be smoking something, not drinking. He's in the realm of hallucination (although the Albanians did become a convenient front for other interests.)
Choose the correct answer below:
AIPAC is to Albanian American Civic League as Rich is to:
A. Poor
B. Destitute
C. Wretched
D. All of the above
"Hmm, $3.6 billion and more to Israel in economic aid every year. This doesn’t count military expenditures. We went to war with Iraq, destroyed a nation, killed untold millions. A war that was championed by Israeli sympathizers in the Bush administration."
'Aid' to Israel is far less than 'aid' to the Jewhating countries surrounding Israel. Aid to Israel is a byproduct of the fact that most Americans support outposts of freedom and democracy in the ME and do not think that Jews, Christian, and anti-sharia Muslims should be subjugated as dhimmi.
This 'aid' is generated by the PEOPLE, which is why the government's corrupted agitprop whines about it incessantly. Read 'blowback' to find out more about our corrupted agitprop (NYT), or read Carl Bernstein's 'CIA and the Media'.
There are no 'Israeli sympathizers' in the Bush administration. There is only big lie repetition that said people exist. I can only find 5-10 Isreali sympathizers on the entire internet.
Israeli sympathizers do not support the Islamist nazis that have been supported, trained, and whitewashed by the US government for 50 years. And no, 'aid' to Israel has not existed for 50 years.
As recently as the 1967 war, the US provided over 10x as much funding to the Arab nazis seeking Israel's destruction as they provided to Israel. In 1979, Brzezinski started arming and funding Islamists. So when did this 'pro Israel' policy exist?
It never did, and it never has. A pro Israel policy does not include using big lie repetition and Goebbels propaganda to incite the masses to hate Israel. Like I said: read 'Blowback' by Christopher Simpson and then get back to me on our 'pro Israel' policy fiction, a policy that manifests itself by stealing Israel's land, kicking all the Jews off of it, and giving it to Husseini's disciples.
Only a big-lie blinded fool calls this 'pro Israel' policy.
And I notice that no one can counter the truth: the US fought for the AACL. The US has only swooped in to RESCUE Israel's enemies and declare that Israel acted disproportionately.
Incidentally, the US State Dept does this also w/the Phillipines and Serbia (obviously).
You've got your nazi big-lies. I have the truth:

12slim:
If what you claim were true, why were Walt & Mearsheimer, not to forget Carter, absolutely pillories by the mass media for their, ahem, "inconsequential" and "worthless" reports?
Why not just ignore it or correct it with verifiable facts and documentation instead of endless ad hominim attacks, which is standard MOP for AIPAC and its enablers?
H.F. Wolff
CHANGE?
Wolff:
On the contrary, the work of M&W is shoddy by all measures of proper scholastic standard. It is their work that is entirely lacking in actual evidence--because there is none!
The actual evidence is that the British appointed the most virulent Jewhaters to lead Arabs in the ME (Husseini) and the the US long ago took over sponsorship of this movement (the Soviets also sponsored various Islamist/nazi groups also).
'Blowback' is real US policy. All CIA talking heads (Cannistraro, McGovern, Scheuer, Cordesman, Johnson, etc.) are fully aware of this. The US rescues Israel's enemies. It has never swooped in to crush them, nor has the US allowed Israel to crush them.
M&W are 'protocols' BS and non-existent US policy. Last I checked, neither was fired, and neither they nor Carter were pilloried at all. In fact, JC is well rewarded.
The attackers of Jews tend to breake their arms patting themselves on the back for their great bravery as they attack the Jewish cabal. Kind of like the Germans did in the 1930s and 40s.
There is nothing brave in this. Brave is boldly supporting Israel, as Bobby Kennedy did (and it cost him his life), and as Martin Luther King did (and he's dead too).
The current US establishment only appoints Jewhaters to lead blacks now (eg. Sharpton). Why would a Jewish controlled establishment, or even a 'pro Israel' establishment replace MLK with Jewhaters like Al Sharpton?
No need to fear, slim. The Jewish controlled establishment, thanks to the efforts of Rahm Emanuel and his ketuba witness David Axelrod, has installed a new black leader, Barack Obama, who is clearly sympathetic to Jewish interests.
Mr OBAMA? Wait for his initial preemtive bomardment. New faces?In the loft are waiting trigger-happy Biden, Albright, Holbrooke, Clark. Imshala
travis,
where is the evidence that he's sympathetic to Jewish interests?
Where was he when, after 9/11, US MSM blamed Israel for 9/11 instead of blaming our Saudi (and other Arab allies)?
Where was he when the MSM kept whining that the US's problems could only be solved by stealing land from Jews?
For the past 7 years, Obama's followers have whined incessantly that the republicans are controlled by 'pro Israel' neocon Jews. And then it turns out that McCain is as beholden to Khalid Rashidi as the democrats are.
Thus they were lying all along. The republicans support the Arabs that seek Israel's destruction.
Where was Emanuel during all of this?
Bottom line: there are no, and never have been any, pro Israel Jews in the US State Department. Given the facts in 'Blowback' it is abundantly clear as to why.
But hopefully you will be right, and with Emanuel at his side, Obama will encourage Israel to go ahead and crush and cleanse all traces of hamas and fatah from the region, thus ushering in a new era of peace, where the US and Saudis will no longer indoctrinate palestinian Arabs into an ideology of Jewhate.
Let us hope.
slim,
So Israel crushing and cleansing, aka genocide, of hamas and fatah is not going produce its own foul blowback?
it pains me that this blog has deteriorated to the level of "slim," whose arrogant, insolent, insulting ignorance and twisted grasp of reality demeans the corageous work and intelligence of paul roberts.
why don't you switch over to the daytrader blogs, slims, where you can fulminate and spread your useless crap to your hard, little heart's content.
trav,
Yes it would be 'genocide' just like the Serbs perpetrated at Srebrenica. If we go by the rule that any peace-seeking people that defends their citizens from the pet Islamists of the West is committing genocide, then I suppose it would be genocide.
Skopros--how sad for you that a Jew that actually speaks the truth shows up to rain on your little Jewish conspiracy parade.
Read the Simpson book and get back to me on when, where, and how the Jews managed to commandeer the US government away from the nazi sympathizers, aiders, and abettors. Good luck.
I'm all for looking at things from an unconventional perspective, but can't see much room to argue that Israel would be a net beneficary should the US withdraw entirely from engagement in and aid to the Middle East -- which would seem to be the logical conclusion to be drawn from the arguments of the Slim faction.
On a different note, I believe a few corrections to the original post are in order.
Rahm Emanuel never served in the IDF. It seems he worked as a civilian volunteer at an Israeli military base during the Gulf War, but was not in the Israeli military.
I've seen no convincing argument that the repeal of Glass-Steagall was a significant factor in, much less centrally to blame for, the financial crisis. I think it was a bad idea, and am open to persuasion on its consequences, but I have to question your stating that as fact.
I have never heard of, and can find no evidence of, any promise by Regan to Gorbachev regarding NATO non-expansion. I believe the conversations you are referring to were with Secretary Baker and other Bush I officials.
And Pravda, while an interesting read, is, to say the least, a dubious source.
Slim is either Simpson himself, trying to peddle a few more volumes of his book, or is somehow getting royalties from it.
"Don't feed the trolls" is the ony approach that works when it comes to writers like him. Mind you, I should follow this advice myself.
Bottom line, if the U.S. didn't have its blindly pro-Israel policy in place, 9/11 would never have happened. The entire basis of Arab anger at America rests on the U.S.'s unconditional support for the truly despicable actions of Israel.
Israel is the tail that wags the American government dog.
No problem here if the US disengages from the ME. This would include not only 'aid' to Israel, but no more of the State Department attacks of Israel's 'disproportionate' response to the jihadists over there.
And the US would need to cease contributing to the UNRWA, the body that maintains the refugee propaganda fraud, no more contributing to the PLO, no more fighting wars that benefit only pro-sharia Islamists, no more funding antisemitic NGOs (this part is often done by the likes of Soros and the Ford Foundation, the 'shadow government' power players).
This will never happen. Obama and Emanuel will only move to hinder the *overt* aid to Israel, but none of the covert things, none of the pro-Islamist 5th column movements, none of the antisemitic NGO work.
Not as simple an issue as the Mearsheimer Walt crowd would have you believe. But what else would one expect from a government/academia establishment that was created by absorbing Hitler's intelligence apparatus?
I see we have another big-lie propagator in 'karsten'. What a shock that the only defense he can muster is calling Israel 'despicable', while Israel is one of the most free countries in the world.
Of course the Judenrein Arab countries, which evicted all Jews in 1948 are gentle and beloved.
You karsten are just another despicable big-lie spewer.
Serb-supporters that fellate palestinian Arab leadership are every bit as loathesome as Jews that fellate the same leadership. Both are tremendous traitors of their people.
Incidentally, I emailed Simpson about Israel and he never got back to me. He's a policy and propaganda expert, and he works for the US empire. He's (seemingly) not allowed to comment on Israel.
George @ #6
George it was the timing of the bombing that was made to be a distraction of the Lewinsky saga. Sure, he probably would have bombed Belgrade later on, but he sure did it out of the blue just before the impeachment vote.
Stick at it slim. You'll wear the bigots down eventually.
After reading more about the author, I'm unable to distinguish him from Vince Cannistraro or Ray McGovern, who are similar 'disgruntled' servants of the US elites.
FGW exposes these types of tremendous liars (who are fully aware of the facts in Blowback) here: http://www.hirhome.com/israel/mprot5.htm
@25slim
The American empire is Jewish.
Jews have a virtual control the news, TV and film industry, they are the majority of financial contributors to both political parties, the majority of think tanks are Jewish, and there are many senior government officials that are dual citizens.
The two main “hate” monitoring groups that censor descent are the ADL and SPLC both Jewish and FSWC pressures web hosting companies to shut down websites they don’t like.
Jews also dominate international banking including the notorious Rothschild banking dynasty and Jacob Schiff the man who financed and installed Communism in Russia.
Even there international front men like George Soro’s are Jewish.
Every single Jewish organisation supported the Bosnians and the Kosovars even setting up lobby firms for them.
Jewish journalist in Jewish owned newspapers and TV were at the forefront spreading the lies of Serbian genocide against Bosnians and Kosovars using Holocaust imagery.
The Jews of Clintons court so to speak were the ones running Clintons Balkan policy including two mentioned in Paul’s article and NATO terror commander Wesley Clark.
You don’t seem to have a problem with Brezinski financing and supporting the Chechens since 92 were he met the president in Harvard then sent him to Bosnia to train Chechen militants in CIA led Bosnian terror camps linking them to international terror organisations especially the Algerians who help recruit for them in Europe.
In 97 Chechen training camps were set up in Afghanistan who fought alongside the Taliban against the Northern Alliance which include chemical and biological weapons training.
Look at the pro-Chechen lobby group ACPC which Brezinski is the director and see how it is dominated by Jewish Neocons.
Mister Mohammed Cartoon journalist in Denmark who is Jewish and warns of islamic extremism against free speech is part of a pro-Chechen NGO in Denmark.
They also support Azerbaijan over Armenia.
@26Robert Bruce
Bombing Serbia had nothing to do with the Lewinsky saga.
If the media really wanted to go after Clinton it would have highlighted how the US was training and sponsoring KLA terrorism.
Wasn’t the Lewinsky affair main stream news in 98?
Serbia was bombed in 99.
The media focused on the Lewinsky affair as a distraction for Clintons Balkans policies.
Who was conned? Jewish Democrats dominate the party and have for 50 years. The rest of the Democrat party consists of the poor - who want handouts, the minorities and immigrants - who want quotas and amnesty, and a number of special interests groups who just want a piece of the graft.
Obama may be half-black but he was part of the Chicago machine and is a graduate of Columbia and Harvard Law. Why would you expect him to be any different than Clinton on Foreign Policy?
George,
How did the American empire go from exploiting and profitting from Jewish slave labor during WWII, when 25% of the 100 largest multinational companies actively profitted from concentration camp labor, to letting Jews take over?
Your ideology is pure absurdity. You are correct only in that the propaganda of said empire is identical to that of the third reich that was allowed to take over said empire.
There are 'ethnic' Jews allowed into the upper echelon--but only if they do what their fascist, antisemite bosses want them to. Thus, Soros assisted the nazis in WWII, and assists them today. Like I said, Aaron David Miller admires Jimmy Carter.
There is ZERO evidence of any Jews in the US empire actually doing anything pro-Israel. There is only mind numbing repetition that they are 'pro Israel'.
2000 years of genocides have confirmed: only the most traitorous of Jews are elevated by the non-Jews into leadership positions. 2000 years of genocide have proven this time and again. The gentiles hate Jabotinsky and Bergson, but love Steven Weiss and Nahum Goldmann, who were lapdogs of the State Department during WWII.
There is no stronger confirmation of what I'm saying than the fact that the US empire sells its pro-Islamist imperialism as 'pro Israel' (when it's patently NOT pro Israel) schemes devised by 'pro Israel' Jews (who have never said or done anything pro Israel).
I suppose Kristol and one or two others have *said* some pro Israel things, but I've not seen a single article which would indicate that he has the power of Khalilzad or Brzezinski. Nor has he ever defended Israel from US government big lies.
Israel has nothing to do with US foreign policy, which is pro Islamist, and includes stealing land mandated to Israel, cleansing it of Jews, and giving it to Islamic nazis.

"There is ZERO evidence of any Jews in the US empire actually doing anything pro-Israel. There is only mind numbing repetition that they are ‘pro Israel’"
Neoconservatism is a Jewish political movement and it is the Neocons that pushed the US into war with Iraq providing false intelligence to justify the invasion mainly Richard Pearle, Paul Wolfowitz, etc.
Richard Pearle wrote a plan called the Clean Break which advocated using the US to wage war with Iraq, Iran and Syria for the Prime minister of Israel during the 90’s.
Look at Brezinski's ACPC membership board is senior members are Jewish Neocons.
What about about Georgia?
That is a CIA/George Soros government.
Soros put the leader in power in his Rose revolution.
Israel, Ukraine and NATO helped train Georgian forces to blitz South Ossetia.
Brezinski didn’t write a book how Israel should be split apart and its natural resources stolen and developed by western oil firms, supporting Islamic theology and militantism to counter Jewish influence in states were a sizable proportion of Jews live or runs pro-Palestinian lobby groups or on the board of NED as a scholar with full benefits which include a research grant and free health care.
No he did that with Russia and now he is Brezinski’s foreign minister running bogus “Russian aggression” TV ads expanding the terrorist organisation NATO on all of its borders and pointing missiles at Russia in Poland.
“Your ideology is pure absurdity. You are correct only in that the propaganda of said empire is identical to that of the third reich that was allowed to take over said empire.”
The Nazis had/have zero influence in US government. There is Zero evidence of this other than some were recruit by the CIA and German scientists for there work on rocket design.
“There are ‘ethnic’ Jews allowed into the upper echelon–but only if they do what their fascist, antisemite bosses want them to”
Jews are the top of the global power structure.
“2000 years of genocides have confirmed: only the most traitorous of Jews are elevated by the non-Jews into leadership positions. 2000 years of genocide have proven this time and again”
There is no evidence of this and Jews have been repeatedly kicked out of European countries because of there behaviour mainly being usury charging excessive rate of interest on loans.
The Jewish power structure is not just limited to the US similar media domination and high proportions of Jewish officials in government can be seen in Britain, France, Canada, etc.
You should read Prof Kevin MacDonalds work on historical Jewsh influence and power in society.
"No he did that with Russia and now he is Brezinski’s foreign minister running bogus “Russian aggression” TV ads..."
Error meant to say:
"No he did that with Russia and now he is OBAMA'S foreign minister running bogus “Russian aggression” TV ads..."
PCR essentially endorsed a vote for Obama before the election. That is very unfortunate. He should have known better. Baldwin could have used his endorsement.
Where can I see the endorsment of Obama by PCR? I was under the impression that he was neutral.
Forget it, Mr. Phillips. The Third Party movement is dead. And the Constitution Party has to be the most hopeless of them all, failing to even get on the ballot in at least a third of the states because their signature gathering efforts were so pathetic, despite being the largest third party by membership.
The problem with third parties is that they seem to think that all they need is a platform and a candidate who supports it. But being viable in presidential politics take a good organization (and yes, a lot of money) more than anything else.
Mr. Haines, the point is not the long term viability of third parties. Although I think the argument that people shouldn't support third parties because nobody supports third parties is a bit of circular logic. Likewise people would support third parties if people would just support third parties. But no matter. The issue is who should conservative have supported in the snap-shot of a single election. McCain? Of course not. Obama? Of course not. Baldwin? Nearly a brain dead reflexive yes. That only 180,000+/- did is a crying shame.
Chuck Baldwins reference in the third party debate that the UN tells the US what to do is a total cop out passing the blame onto someone or something else rather than take the heat and name name's at home.
Mr. Phillips @ 36:
I certainly don't blame you for voting Third Party. I would have happily voted for Chuck Baldwin myself; and in fact I am a registered member of the Constitution Party. But as the Constitution Party - despite having a large following in my state - failed to qualify for the ballot (and write-in votes aren't counted in my county), I wasn't able to. I wound up casting a vote for Nader as a protest.
But all the Third Party candidates combined only drew around 2% of the vote nationwide. And that was with the enthusiastic endorsement of Ron Paul. I attribute the poor showing to the general amateurishness of their campaign organizations. Unfortunately, I just don't see that improving in the near future.

The way the Arabs see the Lewinsky affair is that the Israeli lobby was well aware of Slick Willie's propensity to have zipper problems. All they had to do to wrap the ex-president around their finger was to get one of "their own" in close and let base human nature work its course. So Monica delivered a pizza and got a DNA sample and a cigar as a tip. On the other hand, it might just be jealousy for the Arabs not thinking of doing the same thing first. After all, the 1992 campaign had to hire Betsy Wright to deal with bimbo eruptions.
Anyway, it was Hillary who called Bill and told him to begin the bombing of Serbia as a distraction. Now she might be 4th in line for the throne after Nancy Pelosi. Never before have I prayed so hard for the health of such lousy scuzz-buckets.
Hey Slim, are you Marcus Epstein?
Paul Craig Roberts you aren't suggesting there Jewish ethnicity brings them to high government positions and that they formulate disastrous foreign policy you eeeeeevil anti-Semite you.
Between George's overt anti-Semitism, and slim's stupidity, and spin, the truth is so far away it's amazing.
Look, the truth is this. AIPAC is the most powerful lobbying organization in the US when it comes to foreign policy bar none. And, Israeli interests have often been counter to US interests, yet we have done what was best for Israel despite what was in our interests. It gets deeper. We have done things which were BAD for Israel just because the Likud wanted it to happen.
Israel is a small country who, regardless of how well trained and powerful it's military is, would have to try to make nice with it's neighbors if we weren't so busy in their local politics. It goes both ways. They are knee deep in our politics, and we are knee deep in theirs. It isn't healthy. America is a new world nation, and we need to let Israel fend for itself. Simple as that slim. Not because we are anti-Israel, but because we act like we are the same country when we are not.
Now, anyone peddling a "The Jews Control Everything" ideology need to find a time machine to Bavaria circa 1927. (Yes, that's you George). Look, Jews are both loved and hated. While they do hold a power far greater than their numbers, anyone who says
A.) They control everything.
OR
B.) They are involved in an international conspiracy to TAKE OVER THE WORLD
are probably reading Mein Kampf and mastubating to Hitler posters. Jews are more powerful than their numbers because the philosophy inherent in the Jewish relgion is one of questioning, introspection, and study. If you can't understand how one can come to get great power by gaining knowlege, you haven't been studying history, have you?
Look, Israel as a nation, was probably a bad idea. We have to let them sink or swim much like a child that borrows money all the time from a rich parent, and takes classes in feminist studies at the local community college, and smokes pot all day. The same way this child needs tough love, Israel does to. Hopefully, it's neighbors don't wipe it out.
In fact, because Israel has nukes, that won't happen. But, they will have to treat the Palestinians like human beings, and their neighbors like nations.
@42: never heard of 'marcus epstein'
@43: If he is suggesting such, it would make identical to all the members of the 3rd Reich--who made identical baseless, ridiculous accusations.
So when a person espouses 3rd reich ideology what does that make them? Either a) an idiot or b) an antisemite.
Given the fact that pcr is fully aware of the State Department's long history of virulent antisemitism, the educated person knows the answer.
@43 slim
... the State Department’s long history of virulent antisemitism ..
Surely you mean anti-Russian. Even now the pravoslavophobic machine is being revved up so we can protect out god-awful ally Georgia.

"Surely you mean anti-Russian. Even now the pravoslavophobic machine is being revved up so we can protect out god-awful ally Georgia"
You got that right just look at Obama's innner circle. Zbignew Brezinski, George Soros, Holbrooke and Albright.
Brezinski Is the modern day Jacob Schiff.
Russia could not get a worse candidate.
At least with McCain he is so much of a clown the EU would have a harder time going along with his agenda.
If we had an independant, free and unbiased press then it would be a big scandal that all sources now confirm Georgia's sequence of events are unfounded and there is evidence of Georgian forces commiting war crimes.
Also the fact that Georgia was shippingh illegal arms to Georgia as well as Sudan.
But the media and US, British and other EU countries are still going along with NATO membership for Georgia and Ukraine and this missile shield.
Britian is more anti-Russian than the US.
It is not a coincidence that all of a sudden there is a lot of attention to the Ukrainian famine and USSR revisionism.
Maybe they should mention that the Bolshevik revolution was financied by Jacob Schiff and repayment money with interest was poured back into New York banks, that the post revolutionary period was propped up by the likes the Ford motor company or that Stalin's 5 year industrial plan was financed by high interest loans from the Federal Reserve.
Made a similar error again.
"Also the fact that Georgia was shippingh illegal arms to Georgia as well as Sudan."
Meant to say:
Also the fact that Ukraine was shipping illegal arms to Georgia as well as Sudan.
Actually I heard Olmert saying something about the birth rate ratio of Palestinians to Israelis and how that would affect the very nature of Israel in the future if concessions are not made.
Does anyone know the birth rate of Palestinians to Israelis?
Being Muslim I can imagine the average family being 5-7 children.

"Surely you mean anti-Russian. Even now the pravoslavophobic machine is being revved up so we can protect out god-awful ally Georgia."
The State Dept was created from the Gehlen Org, essentially by absorbing the entire intelligence apparatus from WWII Germany.
These are the people that have convinced you that taking Israel's legally mandated land, rendering it Judenrein, and creating an ethnically clean Islamist state (dedicated to eradicating Israel) is 'pro Israel' policy.
There is nothing pro Israel about this.
Likewise, these are the people that have used propaganda to create an environment where the only Jews that tell the truth about US policy regarding Israel are deemed 'conspiracy kooks' by merely stating that supporting the creation of an Islamic nazi state on Israeli land is actually NOT pro Israel policy. And telling people that the US is run by neocon Jews is also not pro Israel policy. Khalilzad, Brzezinski, and the Saudis exert a wee bit more influence over US policy than any Jews. In any case, there are no actual pro Israel Jews in the US government. There are Jewish antisemites who are called 'pro Israel' over and over and over, until people cannot even think straight.
I've uploaded some interesting articles from 1948-50 to here:

Israel was formed with NO help from the US. And Israel was immediately attacked by the Vatican, the Islamists, and the US State Dept (who, even in 1950, was trying to force Israel to accept hundreds of thousands of enemy combatants). Make note that the US State Dept has never pressured the Arab countries to repatriate or remunerate all the Jews they kicked out in 1948.
@43Mr.Perkins
"Between George’s overt anti-Semitism,..."
Thats nonsense. It is an undeniable fact that Jews dominate the media, international banking and leaders and in the case of communism creator of various political movements.
They are the leaders of the gay rights movement, abortion, Freudian psychology, feminism and created and ran the civil rights organisations during the 50, and 60's.
This video best sums up the argument about anti-semitism..

"Now, anyone peddling a “The Jews Control Everything” ideology need to find a time machine to Bavaria circa 1927"
They don't control everything but they do dominate the western media and are at the forefront of censoring the internet with groups like JIDL.
Bavaria in 1927 you should see which group dominated the media, government, etc.. of Weimar era Germany.
If a specific group dominated the media, political finance, banks and government policy think tanks like the AEI do you not think we have a right to question there agenda/motive even when it is counter to the nations interest like the Iraq war.
