Did Wasserman Schultz or Ros-Lehtinen Help 21-Year-Old Land $300 Million Defense Contract?

by Philip Weiss on April 9, 2008 · 12 comments

Most of you know about the Diveroli case, in which a 21-year-old Florida kid gota $300-million arms contract with the Defense Department and proceeded to supply defective arms to Afghanistan. After the wonderful Times investigation was published in March, Henry Waxman demanded hearings on the Diveroli case. He wants to call all the arms dealers, and a State Dept and Defense Dept official.

Will Waxman fully investigate? I believe that Diveroli lives in either Debbie Wasserman Schultz’s district, or Ileana Ros-Lehtinen’s, in Florida. Did they help him get this contract? I don’t think anyone gets a $300 million Defense contract without some strong political support, let alone a 21-year-old hustler. You can’t get into West Point without your congressman.

The Jewish angle. Diveroli is described as a good Jewish boy whose father wanted him to become a doctor. (Yes; first do no harm.) Wasserman Schultz is a Jewish congresswoman who buys the AIPAC line down the line and won’t come out against Iraq-war supporting Republicans. Henry Waxman is a powerful congressman who once opposed the Vietnam war, but supported the Iraq one. No it’s not a conspiracy. But my people are now principals in America. What has this done to my people’s values? Can we ever acknowledge our privilege and its consequences?

And how many of us serve in the military?

What more convincing proof of Jewish power
could there be than the indefinite postponement of The AIPAC trial and the
almost complete lack of coverage of this
critical story in the MSM?

Phil, why do you insist on smearing yourself by categorizing these cretins as "my people"? Greedy Judeofascists have always intertwined themselves within the Jewish people because they are useful for providing them cover. That's why the Jewish people have suffered through millennium: they are trained by the Judeofascists to rally to their aid like Pavlov's dogs. The Judeofascists today have a strong base in America, and they are going to wring it and average Jews for all each is worth until things get so hot that "the Jews" are forced to move somewhere else — a pattern that has repeated itself time and again. If average Jews really wanted to do something about anti-Semitism, they'd be hunting Judeofascists like the pariahs they are. Judeofascists are the equivalent of pedophile priests, who ensconced themselves in the Catholic Church to both cover their dirty deeds and bring the Catholics low. These types are all deeply degenerate. Don't waste another second aiding the degenerates’ disguise by calling them “my people.” You’re making the same mistake that the Catholics did by protecting the degenerate priests. They should all be flogged from the temple.

From the Slimes article:

"In November 2005, a young woman sought an order of protection from [Diveroli] in the domestic violence division of Dade County Circuit Court. Mr. Diveroli sought court delays on national security grounds. “I am the President and only official employee of my business,” he wrote to the judge on Dec. 8, 2005. “My business is currently of great importance to the country as I am licensed Defense Contractor to the United States Government in the fight against terrorism in Iraq and I am doing my very best to provide our troops with all their equipment needs on pending critical contracts.”

Mwa ha ha ha … how preposterous. He might as well have written, "I am a TSA screener, serving on the front lines of protecting our nation against terror by seizing water bottles and shampoo containers from inexperienced travelers and clueless tourists."

During WW I, in a plainer-spoken America, 'defense contractors' were called 'war babies.' And those were the 'respectable' companies, not fly-by-night fronts like Diveroli.

Amazing, in Diveroli's case, that the Slimes had to dig out the dirty details of his Third World bribes and shoddy, 40-year-old ammo. Where's the Defense Department? Looks like the clowns who couldn't protect us from the 9/11 attacks — the ones who got their own headquarters whacked — haven't upgraded their act in the seven years since. Osama must be laughing up his sleeve, as he surfs the web whilst hooked up to his dialysis machine.

Wasserman-Schulz is also the lady who shut down the impeachment motion and gave a bullshit press conference defending the move. I hate her intensely, and I don't think she's hot, Phil.

Can we get her booted from the Democratic Party in any way other than a primary challenge next election cycle for her district?

I have an idea. Phil, if you go have an affair with her, we could have a scandal like Spitzer's. It would be two birds with one stone; you get to tap that, and she resigns.

Steve Sailer has written a little more about this "minority" defense contractor in Florida–

Didn't Waxman promise to hold hearings about Sibel Edwards and the Administrations lies in regard to pre-invasion of Iraq? We are still waiting. Nothing will come of this.

60 Minutes had Doug Feith on and refused to ask him about the Israel angle and the strategy paper about protecting Israel's "Realm." It's like tilting at windmills.

its frustrating as hell to read about the american jews and their sickening influence over the politics in the united states. I wonder if this is how its always been for the jews down the centuries as they lived in other nations, i wonder if what we see happening in america is similar in some way to the past and why the history of the jews in other nations has been so frought with tragedy for them?

if americans only knew about the power jewish zionist exert over their nations politics, what might occur here, and all because of israel and zionism.

there is an interesting article at lewrockwell.com.

http://www.lewrockwell.com/block/block98.html

Abstract or summary: This paper attempts to understand why the Jews, who have benefited so much from capitalism, nevertheless, in the main, reject it in favor of its polar opposite, socialism and government intervention into the economy; why is it that this group of people, whose socio economic status might be expected to incline them in the direction of the Republican political party in the U.S., instead vote in overwhelming numbers for the Democrats. The following explanatory theses are discussed: the role of intellectualism in pushing in this direction; early educational experiences; motives and purposes vs. empirical effects; jealousy and envy; the causal role of great participation in the culture of Broadway and Hollywood; contempt for Jews, intellectuals, and thus intellectual Jews, on the part of the larger society; purely religious considerations; historical experiences in Europe; persecution as a minority living with hostile majorities; income maximization; and last, and perhaps most controversially, as an attempt to preclude a repetition of the Nazi experience.

The whole package is in the last theory: "Never Again."
The most ardent capitalist, the most severe socialist, hits that button: NAZI Germany was a white Christian nation. Further, Communism was–look at the make up of the first politburo and
secret police. This is an on-going theme. You want to understand Jews? Look always at the time, place, and their position then. Jews have not survived intact for so long without this being the guiding principle. Enlightenment? No. Survival as a special people in their own eyes. That is everything.

If Phil thinks Wasserman Schultz is hot, I agree. She seems to be taking a lukewarm position on foreign policy re the middle east, at least compared to the hard core, the current and long-time position. But, I think that's my little guy telling my big guy what to do. If so, that's depressing. She's young, and so fanatical?
