The Jewish Plan For The Middle East and Beyond

June 13th, 2014

By Gilad Atzmon

Surely, what’s happening now in Iraq and Syria must serve as a final wakeup call that we have been led into a horrific situation in the Middle East by a powerful Lobby driven by the interests of one tribe and one tribe alone.

Back in 1982, Oded Yinon an Israeli journalist formerly attached to the Israeli Foreign Ministry, published a document titled ‘A Strategy for Israel in the Nineteen Eighties.’This Israeli commentator suggested that for Israel to maintain its regional superiority, it must fragment its surrounding Arab states into smaller units. The document, later labelled as ‘Yinon Plan’, implied that Arabs and Muslims killing each other in endless sectarian wars was, in effect, Israel’s insurance policy.

Defending Our ‘Right To Know’ With Courage

June 13th, 2014

By Kevin Zeese

The Courage Foundation Defends Those Who Risk Life and Liberty to Reveal the Truth

Snowden: the Courage Foundation is “a new rapid response team for global democracy.”

On June 11th in Berlin, a new international organization was announced whose purpose is to (1) defend whistleblowers when they are facing prosecution; and (2) defend the public’s right to know.

The right to know is recognized in Article 19 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and consistent with the First Amendment to the US Constitution. The importance of the right to know has become more widely understood thanks to recent whistleblowers, Chelsea Manning and Edward Snowden. They exposed harsh secrets about the way the US government behaves in its militaristic foreign policy and how intelligence agencies conduct dragnet surveillance of communications. As Courage says in its mission statement:

In a secret recording, Erikat lambastes Abbas for "sucking up" to Netanyahu

June 12th, 2014

From Khalid Amayreh in occupied Palestine

In a secret recording appearing this week, Chief Palestinian negotiator Saeb Erikat lashed out at Palestinian Authority (PA) leader Mahmoud Abbas, accusing him of being too obsequious toward Israel, indecisive and compromising Palestinian national interests. (see below):

The following is a verbatim translation of the tape's contents:

They (the PA leadership) are very frustrated. Netanyahu is giving them nothing. He says Jerusalem is Israel's capital and that Hebron is in Israel's possession. Is this man going to make peace with us?

Help Save Lexi Dillon

June 12th, 2014

Please use your cell phone or computer to sign the petition

We are imploring Kamala Harris to take a second look at the year long Tustin PD investigative file into the alleged sexual abuse of Lexi. This case never should have gone to Orange County District Attorney for prosecution due to multiple conflicts between the powerful attorneys the alleged molester hired and the DAs office.

Click here to sign the petition help bring Lexi home!

Lexi Dillon, a 9-year old American girl, has been raped, sodomized and abused by her father, a Thai-Pakistani citizen who is not allowed to re-enter to re-enter the U.S. (reportedly for national security reasons). Though the Tustin Police Department found overwhelming evidence of the abuse, prosecutorial and judicial misconduct in Orange County have resulted in the abuser being given full custody. Now Lexi is being held a virtual prisoner by handlers hired by her foreign abuser who is not allowed back into the U.S. She is in imminent danger of being sent to Thailand as a child sex slave. This girl knows too much. Lexi is now being prevented from talking to anyone who will help. Her wish is to be with her mother. Her mother is a professional, a dentist, who loves her daughter very much. On Friday, June 6, 2014, a travel ban was lifted that had prevented the father from removing her from Orange County. She could disappear at any time.

Following is a list of charges on which the Tustin Police found enough evidence to request prosecution:

California Penal Code Section 288 (a)-Lewd Act
California Penal Code Section 173 (a) (b) Child Abuse
California Penal Code Section 188.5 -Continual Sexual Abuse of a Child
California Penal Code Section 289 (a) (1) (A) - Anal Penetration
California Penal Code Section188 (a) (a) Oral Copulation
California Penal Code Section 188.7 (b)- Oral Copulation with a Victim under 10 Years Old

Only Gov. Jerry Brown (916) 445-2841 and Attorney General Kamala Harris (800) 952 5225 can save this little girl. Helps us www.savelexi.com and call the Governor and the AG immediately to demand they take the case from the Orange County District Attorney.

Pakistan: Farzana Parveen Stoned to Death - But Why?

June 11th, 2014

Dr. Mahboob A. Khawaja

Farzana Parveen just 25 years old was born alone and died alone. The autopsy will show she did not die by natural causes but was stoned to death. She did not commit any crime except the dislike of her own parents and family members to marry Mohammad Iqbal. They viewed it a matter of honor to conspire to kill Farzana. The spectacular scene portrayed on the global news media showed hundreds of spectators witnessing the most horrifying crime to human nature, not in darkness but in broad daylight right where freedom, human dignity, and honor of the citizens should have been protected - The Lahore High Court compound and police in attendance. Farzana’s soul must be wondering, why did the society not protect her against this shameful act of extreme violence? Where are the concerned citizens who claim to be believers- the Muslims and day and night talk about Islam as being the faith and value of the society? The truth is Farzana is not the first victim of such a horrible tragedy. Every day countless Farazans become object of the powerful monsters of this beleaguered and mindless trend of the society. There is no Islam and no believing Muslims, as Farzana was being stoned to death, nobody came to rescue her.

Putin ‘like Hitler’? How did Prince Charles get it so wrong?

June 11th, 2014

By Israel Shamir

Far from being ‘like Hitler’ as Prince Charles accuses, Putin is sober, cautious, defensive, a stickler for international law, determined to modernise Russia, and anxious to avoid military confrontation. Israel Shamir sees through the NATO propaganda …

Putin’s choice is not an easy one. As Russia procrastinates, as the US doubles the risks, the world draws nearer to the nuclear abyss. Who will chicken out?
It is not much fun to be in Kiev these days. The revolutionary excitement is over, and hopes for new faces, the end of corruption and economic improvement have withered.

Palestinians must reject renewed Israeli control over Rafah border crossing

June 10th, 2014

By Khalid Amayreh in Occupied Palestine

I really cannot understand why Palestinian Authority (PA) Chairman Mahmoud Abbas seems so eager to reinstate Israeli control over the Rafah Border Crossing.

This week, it was reported that Abbas said during a press interview that arrangements at the Rafah Border Terminal ought to follow the 2005- agreement which effectively granted Israel ultimate control over the Gaza Strip's sole gate to the outside world.

According to that disgraceful agreement, operations at the crossing cannot be conducted in the absence of European observers who must be stationed on site, e.g. inside travelers' halls.

By Michael Collins

ukraineourinsider

Is he still working for his former masters in Washington, DC?

Two diplomatic messages from the WikiLeaks Public Library on U.S. Diplomacy indicate that newly elected President of Ukraine, Petro Poroshenko was an agent for United States State Department. A confidential message from the U.S. Embassy in Kiev on April 29, 2006 mentions the newly elected Ukraine president twice.

" During an April 28 meeting with Ambassador, Our Ukraine (OU) insider Petro Poroshenko emphatically denied he was using his influence with the Prosecutor General to put pressure on Tymoshenko lieutenant Oleksandr."

" During an April 28 meeting with Ambassador, Our Ukraine (OU) insider Petro Poroshenko denied that he was behind Prosecutor General Oleksandr Medvedko's recent decision to issue an arrest warrant for Tymoshenko lieutenant Oleksandr Turchynov. … [to] question him about the alleged destruction of SBU [Ukraine intel] files on organized crime figure Seymon Mogilievich."

California’s Top-Two Primary Eliminates Third-Party Rivals

June 8th, 2014

by Ellen Brown

Primary elections originated in the American progressive movement and were intended to take the power of candidate nomination away from party leaders and deliver it to the people. California’s Top Two Primary takes power away from third parties representing the 99% and delivers it to the 1%.

Voters have increasingly become disillusioned with the Democratic and Republican Parties. ccording to a poll reported by RasmussenA in April, more than half the country believes that neither of the top two parties represents the American people. As presidential candidate Ron Paul remarked in 2011:

These parties aren’t different, they’re all the same. The monetary policy stays the same. The welfare system stays the same. The foreign policy stays the same. . . . There is but one party.

Muslims must respond to Australia's latest affront

June 8th, 2014

By Khalid Amayreh in Occupied Palestine

The Arab world, if indeed there is still an entity as such, and Muslims around the world must respond in a meaningful manner to the latest affront coming from Australia.

This week, the Australian Attorney-General George Brandis said in a speech that his country ought to stop viewing East Jerusalem as an occupied city.

Brandis is notorious for his racist views and xenophobia. Some of his critics have already described him as "Nazi-minded." The Australian press recently quoted him as saying that "people have the right to be bigots," which made racist and anti-immigration groups in Australia ecstatic. Unfortunately, much of the man's vindictive chauvinism is reserved for Arabs and Muslims. His remarks about E. Jerusalem encapsulate a morbid mind-set not unlike that of the people who wanted to create the Third Reich.
