[wvns] Our Leaders, the Enemy
Our Leaders, the Enemy
Soraya Sepahpour-Ulrich
06/19/07 "ICH" -- -- Forty years ago, when Israeli air and naval
forces attacked and bombed the U.S. Navy intelligence ship Liberty,
the thirty-four Americans who died while patriotically serving their
country were buried in the cold graveyard of treachery dug by their
leaders. The 172 injured survivors lived to mourn not only their
loss, but to forever be shackled by the weight of a reality not shared
by other Americans - Ward Boston Jr. who served as chief counsel to
the Navy's Court of Inquiry into the attack on the U.S. Navy
intelligence ship Liberty stated: "The evidence was clear. We [Adm.
Isaac C. Kidd] both believed with certainty that this attack was a
deliberate effort to sink an American ship and murder its entire
crew." President Lyndon Johnson and Secretary of Defense Robert
McNamara ordered a cover-up of the incident sending a clear signal
that American lives would be sacrificed to inconspicuous agendas[i].
The bodies have been buried under a rubble of lies; the deception that
buried them, an uncontrollable weed, has claimed the bodies of so many
more soldiers since. Who knows of the untold number of innocent
`others' in parts unknown or unreported since? It would seem that the
weeds entangling our leaders have their roots in such think tanks as
the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies (IASPS).
Their `mission statement' in part is:
"It is the integrity of Western societies, in effect the struggle
within Western societies to resist, and to turn back, the Redirection
of Western purposes by Western Elites." "Western societies are poised
today to converge with Islam. Judeo-Christian, West European America
is the enemy and target of these Elites. Particularly have White
people become the target as these Elites, like Islam itself, have
roused the huge and disaffected Black populations of the Americas,
making them the instrument for Elite aims. After a half century of
nurturing institutional destruction of Western societies, the Elites
have now converged with terrorist Islam to herd the peoples of these
societies, literally into killing fields. In this effort none are more
helpful than the Judeo-Christian, Western and Caucasian populations
themselves. The mission of the Institute and its programs is to
reverse and restore what is now marked for destruction." [1]
Noteworthy among IASPS strategists, for the purpose of this article,
are names such as Elie Krakowsky, David Wurmser, and Richard Perle.
They would seem to have a gift of prophecy for the focus of their
research is countries that have been or since become involved in
destabilization, genocide, and war.
Afghanistan - Krakowsky's distinction is owed to a strategy paper
called "The Afghan Vortex" (May 2000). The main thrust of the paper
is the importance of Afghanistan ( "crossroads between what Halford
MacKinder called the world's Heartland and the Indian sub continent.
It owes its importance to its location at the confluence of major
routes. A boundary between land power and sea power, it is the
meeting point between opposing forces larger than itself"; and the
opportunities it presents for the West which can be arrived at only
with `external intervention'. The paper also argues that the
`interested states' that have a stake in Afghanistan must see that
active participation in stabilizing it is the only solution. " Only
the United States has this capability", according to Krakowshy[ii].
Then September 11 happened.
`Interested states', including Russia, China, Pakistan, and even Iran,
cooperated with the United States. Two months after the tragedy of
9/11, a confident Krakowsky appeared on CNN informing the listeners
that if the United States took a forceful role, the people would unite
and calm would ensue, especially if the king were more than just
symbolic.[iii] Krakowsky had assurances from the Afghan people after
having spoken to them in undisclosed circumstances. One has to wonder
when this conversation took place - during the pounding of Afghan
villages or before.
Iraq, Syria & Palestine - Richard Perle authored "A Clean Break: A New
Strategy for Securing the Realm". Among his recommendations was
"Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with
Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back
Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in
Iraq"[iv].
In this strategy paper, Perle also recommended "First and foremost,
Israel's efforts to secure its streets may require hot pursuit into
Palestinian-controlled areas, a justifiable practice with which
Americans can sympathize." The Americans did indeed sympathize by
starving the Palestinians for electing a government of their choice;
an event that the world would otherwise recognize as `free elections',
a necessary step towards democracy. However, Israel and the United
States had other plans and they are overtly and shamelessly cementing
the scaffolding of a coup against Hamas.
Given that on February 27, 1994, Rabbi Yaacov Perrin said "One million
Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail", like `brothers in a cage,
the Arabs are being pitted against each other, Palestinian against
Palestinian. Mr. Bush, at the behest of Israel, having led the
starvation efforts of the Palestinians to the point where he would be
certain they would turn on each other, and having armed the Fatah
party[v], is watching them kill each other. Likewise, having armed
militias in Lebanon and inside refugee camps to oppose Hezbollah, the
neo-cons are now content that Lebanon is once again sliding towards a
civil war with Lebanese killing each other.[vi] In Iraq, having first
armed the Shiites, the neo-cons arm the Sunni insurgents to fight
`al-Qaeda'[vii], and the world is witnessing in horror as the civil
war is delivering more dead Iraqis. However, with Prussian
methodology, nothing will be left to chance. If the neo-cons cannot
bring the long-suffering population of the Middle East to their knees
or be rid of them, they will `zap' or `fry' them with a state of the
art microwave like machine developed by Raytheon, with invisible beams
which penetrate just a 64th of inch beneath the skin, deep enough to
heat up the water inside a person – enough to cause excruciating pain
if nothing else[viii] .
That done, Dick Cheney with David Wurmser at his side can freely
implement their long simmering plans for Iran. Perhaps if Rumsfeld
had shook hands on this instead of chemical weapons and conventional
arms, Saddam would not have felt obliged to kill his opponents by the
thousands – he would have used the same torture mechanism the
Americans are using today.
Iran - U.S. and Israeli officials opened talks March 1 on a new
multi-year plan for U.S. aid to the Jewish state, which could seek
additional funds to "meet evolving threats from Iran, Syria and
Islamic militants." Under the 1998 plan which expires in 2008,
military aid to Israel rose from $1.8 billion to $2.4 billion per
year. Under the new plan, the U.S. is considering new Navy warships
based on the U.S. Navy's Littoral Combat Ship, up to 100 F-35 Joint
Strike Fighters, primary aircraft trainers, troop transports and the
Patriot Advanced Capability-3 missile defense system.[ix] According to
the same source, the additional funds for Tel Aviv being considered by
the Bush White House and Congress is for the "development and
procurement of systems needed to defend against the growing terror
threat and the specter of an Iranian nuclear attack". One has to
wonder if this arsenal will be used to defend against a non-existent
bomb or used to attack Iran and any other country that dares to demand
self rule given that the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter has the following
attributes:
- Four times more effective than legacy fighters in
air-to-air engagements
- Eight times more effective than legacy fighters in
prosecuting missions against fixed and mobile targets
- Three times more effective than legacy fighters in
non-traditional Intelligence Surveillance Reconnaissance (ISR) and
Suppression of Enemy Air Defenses and Destruction of Enemy Air
Defenses (SEAD/DEAD) missions
- About the same in procurement cost as legacy fighters, but
requires significantly less tanker/transport and less infrastructure
with a smaller basing footprint
The offenders, in preparing evil for a nation, first damage its
reputation. In line with Adolf Hitler, the neo-cons are delivering
bigger lies for a more violent conflict. They are accusing Iran of a
nuclear threat in spite of the IAEA inspections to the contrary,
further destabilizing Iraq by arming and feeding the frenzy on all
sides, and stoking the flames by such incendiary accusations as: Iran
is now arming the Taliban too. The denial of such charges by
Afghanistan's minister and the Afghan President were drowned by the
wails of the Iraqis mourning over dead bodies; their place of worship
turned into an inferno at the hands of the devils that killed and
smoked out the devout. Mosques burning everywhere, Moslem worshipers
turned away from their God, and in their anger and frustration turned
on each other instead. More foreign troops were requested by the
Iraqi leaders.
Born equal under law, humanity wanes as it gives way to greed,
deception, and bigotry. With hearts turned to stone, we decline
compassion on our soil and witness life extinguish in our own
hospitals, undisturbed lest it come with a price – be it on our
consciousness or our pockets. Our society is afflicted. Is it
without cure? Will there be compassion left in us when more dead and
dismembered bodies are forever buried under the heavy weight of
treachery, or are we the monsters that by feigning ignorance, and
remaining deaf to the wailing of the mourners, bury honor and thus
create the Hitlers of this world?
