Frightening, nervy unequivocal analysis by ex-CIA analyst Michael Scheuer:
is tied as tight as Gulliver to the status quo of U.S. foreign policy in
the Muslim world.
was designed to and has successfully underscored the salience of Osama bin
Laden's now 12-plus-year-old message to the Muslim world:
First, that the United States â under Republicans or Democrats â
will allow Israel to do anything it pleases in regard to starving and
bombing the Palestinians. This has been underlined for Muslims by the
words of President George W. Bush, the silence of President-elect Obama,
and, according to the Jerusalem Post, by the
blame-it-all-on-the-Palestinians visits of New York City Mayor Michael
Bloomberg, New York Congressman Gary Ackerman, and leaders of major U.S.
Jewish organizations…
Third, that Muslims are regarded by the West as subhumans, and their
blood, lives, and children are â for America, Israel, and Europe â
worthless and expendable. The Gaza score to date will indelibly make
this point across the Islamic world: to date, 500 dead and 2,300 wounded
Palestinians and less than 10 dead Israelis. As Pakistan's Frontier
Post has said, the West silently watches as "Israel is set to starve
the Palestinian Muslims into nonexistence. ⦠No respect for Muslim life!
Muslim blood is cheaper than water!"
It will have reenergized Hamas, which will in turn renew the suicide
bombings inside Israel that allow America's Israel-firsters â including
Obama's IDF-veteran chief of staff â to portray their
country-of-first-allegiance as the poor, put-upon innocent. It will also
have produced the end of whatever slim hope there was of an Arab-Israeli
peace settlement over the course of Obama's term.
Scheuer has never been accused of being an optimist.
BINGO! We can only pray for more Madoffs to totally wreck the US economy; so far so good, a blank bailout check for Wall St, followed by new
regulations that will be written indirectly by Wall St & continuation of the Federal Reserve fiat cabal system.
I suppose it's frightening if you don't notice that he has provided no link or exact source for his lengthy bin Laden claims.
There may yet be a positive blowback from the carnage in Gaza: the total delegitimization and eventual fall of the key Western client states that helped Israel complete the ring around Gaza and conduct the massacre in a politically benign and supportive environment.
By these, I mean the Saudi, Egyptian, Jordanian and Palestinian Authority elites and their security services.
âIf somebody was sending rockets into my house, where my two daughters sleep at night, Iâm going to do everything in my power to stop that,â Obama told reporters. The Israeli defense minister, Ehud Barak, quoted Mr. Obamaâs statement in justifying the attack on Hamas during a news briefing on Dec. 29.
Obama has, after all spoken out–could it be more clear which side he is on? Nothing about somebody half-starving his two daughters for two years, cutting off their education and water and medical supplies, followed by their cribs being hit by white phosphorus, F-16s, Apache helicopters, and tanks–funded by Obama's own wallet and his daughters' future tax assessments…
His own worst fear is showing true–he's no son of the ghetto.
No need to speak out if you already grovelled….
