Why is it that no one is paying attention to Adolph Lieberman?
By Khalid Amayreh in Occupied Palestine
Israeli Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has been indulging in Nazi-like incitement against Palestinians, with a call for those objecting to Israeli policies, particularly the ongoing violent ethnic cleansing of Palestinians, to have their heads chopped off.
“Anyone who’s with us should be given everything – up to half the kingdom. Anyone who’s against us, there’s nothing to do – we should raise an axe and cut off his head; otherwise we won’t survive here,” Lieberman reportedly said at an election event this week, in reference to Palestinian citizens of Israel.
US Saber-Rattling on Russia's Borders
by Stephen Lendman
Washington keeps upping the stakes for direct confrontation with Russia. It risks unthinkable nuclear war.
Rogue states operate this way. America is by far the worst. Incorporating former Soviet republics and Warsaw Pact countries into NATO represents a major threat to Russia's security.
Surrounding it with US bases heads things toward possible conflict. America's relentless push east may launch WW III - like Hitler's land grabs began WW II in September 1939.
Thousands of US boots on the ground, tanks and other military hardware in Latvia represent Obama's latest affront - another provocation daring Russia to respond.
Obama Declares Venezuelan Democracy a Threat to US National Security
by Stephen Lendman
Obama finds new ways to disgrace the office he holds. He gives rogue state governance new meaning.
TeleSUR reported Obama committed "aggression" against Venezuelan sovereign independence. Its model democracy is the hemisphere's best.
It shames America's sham system. Elections when held are farcical - with no legitimacy whatever.
Duopoly power rules. It's totally beholden to monied interests - Wall Street and other corporate crooks. What they say goes.
EU Increasingly Abandons Obama on Ukraine
Eric Zuesse
As reported on Saturday March 7th by both German Economic News, and Spiegel magazine, the ongoing lies and arrogance from U.S. President Barack Obama’s Administration regarding Ukraine and Russia have finally raised to the surface a long-mounting anger of Germany’s Chancellor Angela Merkel and her Government.
This is especially the case with Germany’s Foreign Minister, Frank-Walter Steinmeier, who comes from Germany’s Social Democratic Party, which is far less conservative (and far less anti-Russian) than the Christian Democratic Union Party, Chancellor Merkel’s party. The CDU has traditionally been hostile toward Russia, but the SDP has instead favored an unprejudiced policy regarding Russia, after the breakup of the Soviet Union and the end of communism there.
Netanyahu failed to Mention How Israel Managed To Retain Its Nuclear Weapons Programe
William Hanna
“It is interesting — but not surprising — to note that in all the words written and uttered about the Kennedy assassination, Israel's intelligence agency, the Mossad, has never been mentioned. And yet a Mossad motive is obvious. On this question, as on almost all others, American reporters and commentators cannot bring themselves cast Israel in an unfavourable light — despite the obvious fact that Mossad complicity is as plausible as any of the other theories.” - Former Rep. Paul Findley (R-I11.), (http://www.wrmea.org/1992-march/speaking-out-in-kennedy-assassination-anyone-but-mossad-is-fair-game-for-u.s.-media.html)
Proposed European Army: Good Idea or Bad?
by Stephen Lendman
For sure what the world needs now is less militarism, not more. World peace depends on demilitarization - especially eliminating all radiological, chemical, biological and other banned weapons.
The only positive argument for militarizing Europe more than already would be if doing so dented US-dominated NATO, - if it meant breaking with the Alliance aimed at eliminating it altogether.
Not for reasons EU Commission head Jean-Claude Junker cites. He's a former Luxembourg prime minister. His proposal is polar opposite what's needed. It's lunacy. He long argued for establishing a separate European force. He claims it's needed to defend so-called "European values," face up to Russia, and safeguard against other undefined threats.
Choice for Palestinians in Israeli Elections: None
by Stephen Lendman
On March 17, Israelis will choose among candidates from a dozen parties for 120 Knesset seats. Coalition governance will follow.
No single party in Israeli history ever won a clear majority. Netanyahu's Likud and Isaac Herzog/Tzipi Livni's Zionist Union are virtually even in polls. One or the other will likely head new coalition governance when formed. Democracy is pure fantasy. So is an Israeli left. Fascists run things. Expect no change this time. Choice for Israeli Jews is much like for Americans - between death by hanging or firing squad.
Arab Knesset members representing Israel's 20% Palestinian population have no say whatever on policy. They're barely tolerated potted plants. Some are maliciously maligned - at times openly attacked.
Israeli Foreign Minister Wants Arab Citizens Beheaded
by Stephen Lendman
Anyone doubting racist lunatics run Israel take note of what ultranationalist/fascist/defrocked for criminality/reinstated Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman proposes.
He wants anyone he considers disloyal to Israel as a Jewish state beheaded. Recall GW Bush's polarizing September 20, 2001 statement to a joint congressional session about "either (being) with us or against us."
Ahead of next week's Israeli elections, Lieberman addressed the Herzliya Interdisciplinary Center, saying:
"Whoever is with us should get everything. Whoever is against us, there's noting else to do. We have to life up an axe and remove his head. Otherwise, we won't survive here."
He's one of many radicalized racists running Israel - fear/hate/war-mongering lunatics in charge. Lieberman is one of the worst.
Europe Blocks U.S. from Racing to War Against Russia
Eric Zuesse
On Friday, 6 March, President Obama placed temporarily on ice his planned increase in weapons and soldiers to help the Ukrainian Government to ‘defend’ Ukraine against the ‘terrorists’ in Donbass, which is the Ukrainian region that had voted 90% for the President whom the Obama Administration overthrew in February 2014. (Here is where the EU first learned, on 26 February 2014, that the overthrow of Viktor Yanukovych had been a coup instead of a genuine popular revolution.) Obama replaced that Government with a racist-fascist anti-Russian regime, which quickly set about exterminating as many residents of Donbass as possible, as quickly as possible (calling them ‘terrorists,’ for their refusal to be ruled by the new Obama-imposed, anti-Russian, Government).
According to German Economic News, Germany’s Angela Merkel and France’s Francois Hollande are balking at the speed of Obama’s rush to war against Russia.
The Unthinkable: Possible Nuclear War with Russia
by Stephen Lendman
Lunatics running things in Washington make anything possible. Obama looks like Bush on steroids.
Neocons infest his administration and Congress. Permanent war on humanity more than ever is official US policy.
Ukraine is ground zero. Ongoing conflict risks the unthinkable - direct US confrontation with Russia risking nuclear war. Former Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev warned Ukraine's conflict could "unavoidably lead to a nuclear war.."
Nuclear arms expert Steven Starr warned about things headed recklessly toward this possibility.
Nuclear expert Helen Caldicott believes US/Russian confrontation risks nuclear war. Things today are more dangerous than any previous time in the post-WW II period.
