02-09-07 - Chris Hedges: The Christian Right?s War on America I try not to focus on it. I?ve had to deal with the Israeli lobby for so long that I really try and shut it out and try not to read it, because a lot of it is just completely untrue and unfair, and I don?t want to burn up a lot of energy. I?d rather just put the blinders on and keep going and say what I have to say. I don?t like it, obviously, and I especially don?t like it when it devolves?as it usually does?into character assassination. We saw that with the response to Jimmy Carter?s book

Who has driven nearly 3/4 million people from their homes, who has wiped Palestine off the map, who continues to squeeze a people into smaller and smaller areas of land by unlawful land confiscation (this includes by way of the wall)? Is it the Palestinians? And what of Avigdor Lieberman's comments calling on Israel to transfer the Arabs out of that country, hmm? He was just put in a very powerful position in the Israeli government. Can you say HYPOCRISY.

Why were they the only people in New York who seemed to realize that the first impact was a terrorist attack and not an accident? Because they lacked foreknowledge? I would bet all of my money on the fact that they knew what was coming, and that's why they came to Liberty Park to watch the incident, and that's precisely why they were seen cheering after the FIRST plane went into the WTC - when it had not yet been established that this was a terrorist attack. "Cui bono- Who benefits? - is a question that must ever be asked about Middle Eastern terror" - Pat Buchanan. Do your own research - who has benefited the most from the subsequent 'war on terror' and the political situation as well. You will get a few different answers: Israel, Cheney, and the neocons. Whose war is this?. I've got that Fox News video that has since disappeared without a trace from the internet at Fox's insistance. somewhere. Though I am not sure that I have all four parts of that series. For your perusal: the Bergen County Record article about the incident retrieved from the Internet Archiver.

02-09-07 - U.N.'s Ban Veers From Standard Line on Israel Lebanese military commanders said that before the shooting began on Wednesday, Israeli bulldozers crossed the border, moving 22 yards into Lebanon's territory near the village of Maroun el-Rass. But the Israeli press, quoting IDF sources, said the bulldozers came under fire from the Lebanese side after crossing a "technical fence" within Israel's territory, several yards from the international border, known as the "blue line." The NY Sun is a staunchly pro-Israel rag, in case you hadn't yet noticed.

American taxpayers are being totally soaked.
02-09-07 - BBC propaganda THE notion that peace is within the grasp of the Palestinians (Ending conflict, February 3) shows just how successful is the BBC's propaganda campaign on behalf of the state of Israel and their paymasters at the White House.
