The Israel Lobby’s Fatwa Against Barack Obama & Merrill McPeak

The Israel Lobby’s Fatwa to Barack Obama: Get Rid of McPeak | InformationPile.com

TNR Issues Fatwa Against McPeak for Criticizing Israel Lobby

As Reported by Mondoweiss 

The New Republic is calling for Obama to throw ret. Air Force General Merrill McPeak under the bus because of comments in ‘03 about the Israel lobby. TNR’s Noam Scheiber, who describes McPeak as a loose cannon on two earlier occasions, says:

I don’t really trust people who complain about Jews in New York City and Miami controlling U.S. foreign policy, so in my book that’s a third strike.

Take a look at the entire transcript of that 2003 interview from which McPeak’s Miami/New York City comments were lifted. McPeak comes off as a smart, seasoned, worldly guy. Here’s the passage that refers to the Israel lobby:

We don’t have a playbook for the Middle East. You know, for instance, obviously, a part of that long-term strategy would be getting the Israelis and the Palestinians together at . . . something other than a peace process. Process is not a substitute for achievement or settlement. And even so the process has gone off the tracks, but the process isn’t enough. . . . We need to get it fixed and only we have the authority with both sides to move them towards that. Everybody knows that.

So where’s the problem? State? White House?

New York City. Miami. We have a large vote – vote, here in favor of Israel. And no politician wants to run against it.

Actually I was thinking of the larger lack of a Middle East strategy. Does that emanate out of the State Department or out of the White House, combination of both, is it a personality struggle, what’s – what’s going on?

I think that everybody understands that a settlement of the Arab-Israeli problem would require the Israelis to stop settling the West Bank and the Gaza Strip, and maybe even withdraw some of the settlements that’ve already been put there. And nobody wants to take on that problem. It’s just too tough politically. So that means we can’t . . . you can’t develop a Middle East strategy. It’s impossible.

As Richard Silverstein has pointed out, McPeak’s language was a little imprecise, but he is talking about crucial ideas involving the Israel lobby’s role in obstructing the creation of a Palestinian state and barring political discussion of the Israeli colonization of the West Bank. Why, even Obama’s Jewish surrogate won’t condemn the settlements! Our politics are broken.

The New Republic’s fatwa against McPeak is Jewish Establishment orthodoxy, an atmosphere of censorship so thick that even Wise Men must be tossed out if they mention the Israel lobby. It reminds me that per John Mearsheimer, many have privately endorsed Walt and Mearsheimer’s work and not done so publicly–and that Steve Walt, who has the absolute pedigree of a high State Department or Defense official, knew he was kissing goodbye to any job in Washington when he wrote the book. This rope line won’t last.

Crooks and Liars » Vice President Dick Cheney HATES the American people?

Crooks and Liars » Why does Dick Cheney hate the American people?

The audacity of Dick Cheney never ceases to amaze me. Check out what the Veep says in response to a question by ABC’s Martha Raddatz about 2/3 of Americans thinking the war was not worth fighting.

Raddatz: Two-thirds of Americans say it’s not worth fighting, and they’re looking at the value gain versus the cost in American lives, certainly, and Iraqi lives.

Cheney: So? <sinister smirk>

Raddatz: So — you don’t care what the American people think?

Cheney: No, I think you cannot be blown off course by the fluctuations in the public opinion polls. Think about what would have happened if Abraham Lincoln had paid attention to polls, if they had had polls during the Civil War. He never would have succeeded if he hadn’t had a clear objective, a vision for where he wanted to go, and he was willing to withstand the slings and arrows of the political wars in order to get there. And this President has been very courageous, very consistent, very determined to continue down the course we were on and to achieve our objective.

An you imagine what a bastard son-of-a-bitch this guy is! Dick Cheney should be FIRED!

Vote for Ron Paul… Join the Revolution! 

Saxo Bank Bearish on Economy; Predicts victory for Dr. Ron Paul

Saxo Bank experts believe that oil prices will hit the level of 175 dollars per barrel in 2008, whereas grain prices will double. The U.S. and the Chinese markets will collapse by 25 and 40 percent respectively by the end of the summer of 2008. Every third of ten U.S. large building companies will go bankrupt. The British economy will also start declining.

If you are not going to help me keep the most important post
of your lives up we will lose the nomination.

SGPUPDATED :

MOST OF YOU PEOPLE WOULD RATHER ARGUE WITH MORONS THAT SERVE NO PURPOSE HERE RATHER THAN KEEP THIS IMPORTANT INFO UP TOP AND IT MAKES ME SICK TO MY STOMACH!

KEEP THIS BUMPED EVERY DAY PLEASE!

IMPORTANT : YOU PEOPLE NEED TO IGNORE THE POSTS FROM JHL – RYAN – SLAPSHOT AND WRELLIM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE A CLUE WHAT THE HELL THEY ARE TALKING ABOUT.

I was an administrator for the Democratic party for over 6 years and i am well educated in the nomination process, I left the party to support Dr. Paul so i know what i am talking about.

Our founding fathers set the system up like this to assure that there would not have false or fruadulent support for a candidate thus forcing THE PEOPLE to become involved in the election process and to show actual support for thier candidate.

They wanted to make sure they would protect us from VOTE FRAUD and to make sure that a candidate did not win a beauty contest but instead win an election.

Any candidate and thier supporters can do exactly what we are doing if they chose to do so and i am sure from the reports we have received that Mccain does not have real support or he would have the delegates he needs registered as delegates to vote for him in the up coming convention.

If you doubt my post go and research it yourself PLEASE here : http://www.gop.com/images…

PLEASE EVERYONE COPY AND SEND THIS TO THEIR EMAIL LIST AND MEETUP HEADS AND ANY OTHER RON PAUL FORUM THERE IS.

I know many of you are new to the election process but don’t worry.

I am going to go into some depth of how this all works so read and then read again if you need to.

Did you know that the delegates can actually vote to unbind thier delegates that are bound by state rules? Did you know that delegates can actually overturn and previous vote? Did you know the delegates have control of the entire process?

The MSM is not reporting how to become the nominee in a situation like this so i will tell you to stop getting your info from the MSM.

I know many of you are bummed about Dr. Paul not getting more votes in the states popular vote BUT THAT IS BECAUSE YOU DO NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THE ELECTION SYSTEM WORKS : Let me explain to you the reality of how to become the nominee.

First stop looking at who wins each states popular vote for most of these states the vote by the people is really nothing but a straw poll and have no real bearing on who will become the nominee. The only way this matters is if 1 person receives 1191 delegates that are bound by state rules to be committed to that candidate. So if a candidate like Mccain now has 906 delegates now but he doesn’t reach 1191 WHICH HE WILL NOT most of the delegates the state awarded him mean nothing and keep in mind in most of the states most of the people that represent the 906 for Mccain are actually Ron Paul supporters. NOW there is no possible way that anyone in the race can achieve this goal now because of the major split in state wins by the candidates.

Normally Convention Delegates do not matter because the convention is not brokered and we have a clear winner because someone has 1191 delegates. BUT THIS YEAR IS DIFFERENT. This will be a brokered convention there is no way around it. Do you see how the ronpaul campaign strategy will work.

When a candidate wins delegates by winning a primary that does not mean there are actual people that won acting as delegates- these are virtual delegates.

What do I mean by virtual delegates: A virtual delegate is just a number – there are no actual people YET that will go and vote for the candidate who won the particular state at the national convention. We call these people convention delegates

The actual delegates are voted on (in most states) at a statewide delegate caucus after the Primary (which is just a giant preference poll) Who can be delegates? Anyone. In closed Primary states they must be registered Republicans, in Open Primary states they can be Republicans, Democrats, Independents.

View the hard count of actaul pledged delegates here : http://www.thegreenpapers…

And we have lots of delegates.

Out of the 2,380 delegates sent to Minneapolis St. Paul in September-
-463 delegates are bound all the way through the convention some of those 463 are Ron Pauls people.

- 565 delegates will be bound through one ballot. That is, they have to follow the results of the state election on the first ballot. After that, if no candidate has a majority of delegates, they are free to vote as they please and Mccain will not receive over 50% on the first ballot.

- 383 will be bound through two ballots then they are free to vote for whom they wish.

- 318 will be bound through three ballots then they are free to vote for whom they wish.

I am not going to list every state and what the break downs are, just do the math from these numbers or look for yourself here :

http://www.gop.com/Images…

Bottom line is less than 1/2 of the delegates are bound by state party rules. Now do you see how we can win this thing?

So what happens now you ask? You look at the number of delegates that Dr. Paul has that are uncommited to the other candidates and will support him. these delegates are not decided by the popular vote ie: straw poll of the people. Since no one will have enough delegates to skate them through to the nomination we now must look at how many delegates NOT VOTES but delegates Dr. Paul has that are 100% uncommited to the other candidates and will be 100% for Dr. Paul and are free to vote for whom they wish.

This race will go all the way to the convention for there is no other way for someone to receive the nomintaion untill the convention.

The RNC will convene its annual Winter Meeting – and voters will continue to cast their ballots in the nation’s primaries and caucuses. Candidates for delegate and alternate delegate to the convention will be elected – and thousands of convention participants and guests will begin planning their trips to Minneapolis-Saint Paul The first week in September 2008

SO WHAT DOES ALL THIS MEAN?

This means that all of the people that registered to become a deligate for Dr. Paul can go to the convention and cast thier vote for Dr. Paul, now think about what i just said : Do you think for one second that all the people that voted for Dr. Paul and filed to become a deligate will not show up at the convention to vote for the good Doctor? Of course they will just like they battled the rain and the sleet and the 15 below zero winter weather to knock on doors and wave signs spreading our message.

Now i assure you that even though we didn’t win the popular vote in many states WE DID PICK UP THE MAJORITY OF DELEGATES THAN ALL THE OTHER CANDIDATES IN MOST EVERY STATE EXCEPT A FEW. So yes they won the straw poll and we won what counts which is delegates.

Doesn’t Dr. Paul need to WIN 5 states to be on the ballot at the convention for the nomination?

NO THIS IS NOT TRUE for people were just confused on how it actually works.

We only need the majority of delegates from 5 states to be put on the ballot NOT THE POPULAR VOTE OF 5 STATES and i assure you we have picked up the majority of uncommitted delegates for Dr. Paul in more than 5 states.

Do any of you remember seeing posts by myself and many others that said BECOME A DELEGATE? There is still time in most states to become a delegate for the convention and we are picking up more of them every day.

So please STOP! you worry too much because you do not understand how the election system works and you thought we lost didn’t you? I assure you we have not!

The fact is Dr. Paul is a genius in his strategy and we are further ahead in delegates than you think and we can win the nomination.

I hope this gives a better understanding of how we have been winning even though most of you thought we were not.

NOW LET’S KEEP WORKING FILE TODAY AND BECOME A DELEGATE BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE!

Break The Matrix – Take Back the Media – The Revolution has Began

A grassroots response to the deficiencies that are so glaringly obvious in our existing mainstream media structure is now underway.

WE NEED TO BUILD COMMUNITY

The essential first step is clear and obvious. We need to build community. Individuals acting alone cannot achieve a lasting success. Donations to the cause; volunteerism; good intentions—these things are immensely valuable, but they are not enough. We have to DO SOMETHING MORE. We have to FIND EACH OTHER, AND ACT TOGETHER. Our adversaries want to keep us separated, and divided, and apart. They want to keep us weak, and controlled, and silenced. They don’t want us to join together; to move in unison; to be like they are. Keeping us apart is the key to their power, ladies and gentlemen. They have community. And so must we.

Our community will start right here on the Internet. We’ll begin with the development of interesting and entertaining content for online radio and television, and the creation of a community web portal where our supporters can gather and find each other. Then we grow from there. We’ll start out small, with the sharing of voices and faces online. People talking, and spreading the words of freedom. When the time comes we’ll move off the Internet to terrestrial radio stations and television outlets across America. It won’t happen quickly. It won’t be easy. We should not kid ourselves—this effort will take time, and money, and energy, and vision. But it can be done, and it’s going to happen because it MUST happen. It’s going to happen because the time has come for the plundering of America to stop.

Building community—that’s what matters most, and that’s what we’re looking to achieve. Our financing tool is simple. We’re going to proceed with a public offering of stock through the Internet. Nothing quite like this has ever been done before, but something new is needed. So the day is coming when we’ll be asking you to invest in our vision. The choice will be yours to make.

That’s what’s we’re planning, but for now we ask only that you read and consider our written messages at breakthematrix.com. If you think we’re on the right track, click the pledge button. Show your support, and spread the word. Tell your friends, your family, your colleagues, and move the idea forward. The creation of our community has already begun, but we need to see it grow if we are going to truly have an impact in getting the word out to the American people. To our more than 5200 subscribers who’ve pledged so far, we say: THANK YOU. To those of you who are learning about us for the first time, we say: check it out. There will be much more to follow in upcoming weeks and months as we get things moving. It’s a process, one small step at a time, and this is merely the initial and non—binding “solicitation of interest” stage. We invite you in; the water’s fine. Tell us now if you’re interested; a detailed Offering Circular will follow later when the newly forming company is up and ready. In the meantime, here are the applicable Securities and Exchange Commission rules for where we are today:

1.

No money or other consideration is being solicited by this document, and if sent in response, will not be accepted;
2.

No sales of securities will be made or commitment to purchase accepted until delivery of an offering circular that includes complete information about the issuer and the offering;
3.

An indication of interest by a prospective investor involves no obligation or commitment of any kind.

As is our custom here at breakthematrix.com, we close with some words of Ron Paul from the presidential campaign trail. Dr. Paul says: “How can we ask one young American to die for a neocon empire?” How, indeed.
