Israel's Dirty Dozen (s): A Case of Zionist "Foot and Mouth Disease"
by Mohamed
Khodr
In one of my favorite movies
"The Dirty Dozen", Lee Marvin gathers twelve men of disrepute
who've committed murder, felony crimes, fraud, and robbery for an
undercover mission against a German target. Although all but two die they
succeed in their mission. The Nazis are such evil people that we cheer
these men as they kill military and civilian men and women alike in cold
blooded fashion shoving them into the basement, blocking all access and
laying siege to the palace until all are murdered. We feel detached and
desensitized to the death of the Nazi "terrorists and murderers"
because of our historical knowledge and indoctrination through the media
and movies that all Nazi's are evil.
Today, the Germans, Italians,
Japanese, and the Turks are our friends and allies because the same
information age media that demonized them now praises them. Even after
spending $5 Trillion dollars in our Cold War with Russia we have developed
a non-threatening stable relationship with the former "Commies".
We've even dumped our former "friend" Taiwan for the sake of
China. A lesson for all our "friends" to keep in mind. We're a
fickle nation and we'll dump you faster than you can say a buck.
This same information age
media has for decades indoctrinated us into the false belief that Israel
is our '"friend and ally" and the only democratic peace loving
nation in the Middle East, a region brushed with the same demonizing
celluloid and ink used against the former Nazis. Since Americans are a
good hearted people with a knack for quick superficial understandings of
issues and who loathe any "serious" discussions and
confrontations we surrender our thoughts and feelings to our bastion of
"knowledge"--the media and entertainment industry. And, there my
humanoid friends, is the RUB.
Realizing the power of pictures and
words on our fragile psyche, Israel and its Pro-Zionist community have
cultivated a gang of writers, editors, columnists, journalists,
producers, directors, owners, advertisers, marketers, spin doctors,
public relation firms, financial institutions, political action
committees, monitoring groups, Washington based think tanks,
newspapers, magazines, Television stations, radios, movie studios, a
"rapid response attack force", and so much more that it
takes our "free speech" breath away.
Most dangerous among these
gangs are Israel's American Columnists whose allegiance to this country is
questionable given their propensity to keep the Arab-Israeli conflict
alive and well to the financial, military, and expansionist land policy of
Israel: They are the real "Dirty Dozen (s)" They are the rich,
successful, unchallenged purveyors of bias, hate, myth making, and lies
who adorn the pages of the Op-Ed pages of our most powerful papers and who
value Israel's interest above America's.
The Dirty Dozen (s) Honor Roll
Jeff Jacoby, George Will, Cal Thomas,
Charles Krauthammer, Daniel Pipes, Steve Emerson, Edward Luttwak, Mark
Halprin, William Safire, Thomas Friedman, Mort Zuckerman, R. Emmett
Tyrrell Jr, Don Feder, James Pinkerton, Judith Miller, etc. etc. etc.
Most of the names of these
"Dirty Dozens" are proudly listed in the Jewish website: www.jewishworldreview.com
These media "Mouths"
provide the political cover, justification, and requisite preemptive
intimidation of Congress and any potential critic of Israel that allows
Israel's "Foot" soldiers and government to stomp upon the lives
and land of occupied Palestine, to lay siege to their lives, to determine
what food, water, or medicine gets to them, to demolish their homes at will,
to tear their farms, olive trees, and roads at whim, to imprison thousands
and torture them, to liquidate any activist fighting the military
occupation, and to force our proud nation to kowtow to Israel's needs and
embarrass itself around the world by vetoing even the simplest UN Resolution
that condemns Israel's human rights abuses and murder of school children.
There is no greater example of
man's inhumanity to man than what Israel is unleashing upon the lives of
Palestinian women, children, and old men for the last 52 years. These
"dirty" journalists and their employers deliberately deprive
America and the world of the horrid hatred toward Arabs, Palestinians, and
Islam that many in Israel feel and express through the armed Jewish settlers
and army bulldozers.
They deprive us of television
pictures of wounded and dying Palestinian babies, of grieving mothers, of
children shot by snipers through their hearts or in their bed. They deprive
us of sympathetic stories that could affect America's public opinion that
they realize will definitely go against Israel and the doormat pandering of
our politicians who at election time discover their Jewish roots. America's
television lenses are only focused on Israeli loss, blood, and grief. The
camera will capture the smiling face of an Israeli soldier ignoring his foot
that's pressing on the neck of a Palestinian mother.
Our "free" media, with
its pro-Israeli bias, understands that as long as the
"Palestinian" story is ignored, as long as they continue
portraying Israel as the victim and not the murderous "rogue"
state that it is, that as long as they intimidate by any means necessary
anyone daring to speak up against Israel; our government will continue to
pour the hundreds of tax dollars and latest weapons technology to Israel out
of fear of "AIPAC: American Israeli Political Action Committee"
and its hundred of statewide political action committees. It's either
"shut up" or you are an "Anti-Semite": a label
guaranteed to be picked up and repeated by news outlets throughout the
country.
None of the fifty states in the
union have the Un-Constitutional representation Israel has in our country.
While each state has two senators, Israel has 10. While Virginia with a
greater population than Israel has 11 House Representatives, Israel has 23
House Representatives. Shockingly, one of Israel's most ardent salivating
supporters in the House is Rep. Benjamin Gilman (R) of New York who was
recently removed from his Chairmanship of the House International Relations
Committee, but his influence and power forced the House to create a special
sub-committee just for him to chair called the Middle East Affairs
Sub-Committee so he can whip the House and media into a pro-Israeli frenzy.
No other Representative can muster such clout to form his very own
Sub-Committee to deal with an important issue for his state. This is an
outrage. Israel and its Jewish partners in our country have blurred the line
that defines America's relationship with another sovereign nation to the
extent that during Clinton's administration almost every important Cabinet,
Agency, and Ambassadorial position was filled by Pro-Israel Jewish
Americans. Many of these appointees came to government from Israeli lobbying
groups and think tanks and now many returned to their Pro-Israel lobbying
jobs. This is a new and unprecedented definition of an unpatriotic
"Exchange Program".
So far our country has been
fortunately free from the virus causing Europe's "Foot and Mouth
Disease", but unfortunately we have not been so free from the Zionist
virus that's causing America's version of "Foot and Mouth" Disease
responsible for infecting and corrupting our nation's political system.
Israeli's and Palestinians are tragically suffering and dying due to the
failure of Zionism that only recognizes the humanity, welfare, and wealth of
Jews only. Our media shares a great deal of responsibility for this inhumane
yet easily solvable tragedy. With their words and pictures these
"dirty' media "humans" contribute to the death of innocents
on both sides. They have truly sold their conscience to the devil.
We as Americans can cure this
"Dirty" Virus before it engulfs us further into a military and
economic confrontation with 1.2 Billion Muslims; a confrontation
manufactured for us and one that goes against our national interest, our
morals, our sense of justice, and humanity.
Our silence and quiet
acquiescence to the Zionist viral propaganda and it's "dirty"
purveyors are at the root of many of our failed policies and conflicts
overseas. These "dirty" Zionists are few but powerful and don't
even represent the majority of Jews in our country.
It's time to find our backbone,
our voice, and find a permanent Anti-Viral cure for this dirty "Foot
and Mouth Disease." We've eliminated the smallPOX, now let's eliminate
the BIGPOX on our nation's conscience. God bless us all to do the right
thing and finally find our moral compass for truth and justice.
