When the FBI produces its annual report to Congress concerning "Foreign Economic Collection and Industrial Espionage," Israel and its intelligence services often feature prominently as a threat second only to China.<BR/><BR/>In 2005 the FBI noted, for example, that Israel maintains "an active program to gather proprietary information within the United States." A key Israeli method, said the FBI report, is computer intrusion. In 1996, the Defense Intelligence Service, a branch of the Pentagon, issued a warning that "the collection of scientific intelligence in the United States [is] the third highest priority of Israeli Intelligence after information on its Arab neighbors and information on secret U.S. policies or decisions relating to Israel."Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-31095748153531449492009-03-13T02:18:00.000-07:002009-03-13T02:18:00.000-07:00The Mideast peace process of the 1990s was the res...The Mideast peace process of the 1990s was the result of the “anti-semites” G.H.W. Bush and James Baker, not any establishment push against the Jewish/Israel lobby, unless you consider Bush First and Baker an “establishment” (I admit that they once were members of an establishment, but by the time they were thrown out they were members of a former establishment). Junior Bush went to school on his dad, and realized that standing up to the Israel Lobby means no reelection, so he truckled to the Lobby, with disastrous consequences. Clinton had to go to great lengths to avoid going to war in the Mideast for the Lobby, and only played that card half heartedly during impeachment. Clinton’s war against Serbia was in part on behalf of the Lobby, but the muslims liked it too so it was a twofer. <BR/><BR/>Paleos aren’t pro-China. Hell, I was a teenager and China was still a backwater (in 1990) and I was complaining about FDR siding with China over Japan in WW2. Not that I don’t like WW2 movies were we kill the Japs, that is all “good fun” but the Japs weren’t the long term civilization threat that China is, if only because of numbers. <BR/><BR/>Paleos aren’t pro-Muslim either; note that the Paleos favored Serbia in the war that the “neoliberals” waged against that Christian country. Paleos also are opposed to Muslims in the Western world. <BR/><BR/>No, Christian superstition in benefits from favoring the chosen people doesn’t really have anything to do with the Israel lobby’s power in the corridors of power as the Christians have no presence there. That superstition serves to prevent any peasant revolt, pitchforks and all you know.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-47820651097047825002009-03-13T01:46:00.000-07:002009-03-13T01:46:00.000-07:00The Zionists' success in Washington DC led directl...<I>The Zionists' success in Washington DC led directly to 9/11.</I><BR/><BR/>Nonsense. In bin Laden's own statement after 9/11 (and in all his previous statements, too), U.S. support of Israel is mentioned only as an afterthought, almost perfuctorily. His main charge against the U.S. was the presence of "infidel" troops in Saudi Arabia, which were there at the behest of the Saudi rulers, if you'll recall. No, on this one, much as I hate to admit it, T99 is right. Bin Laden wanted to lead a global Jihad to re-establish a caliphate and take back all the lands that once belonged to Islam (including Spain and Eastern Europe). He believed that the US, as the sole remaining superpower, was the only thing standing in his way, and that the US was really just a "paper tiger" with no stomach for war. 9/11 was his big attention-grabbing bid for leadership of this dreamed-of global Jihad movement.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-77279808717395731102009-03-13T00:44:00.000-07:002009-03-13T00:44:00.000-07:00I'd say the US gentile obsession with Israel comes...I'd say the US gentile obsession with Israel comes from the mistaken belief that if they support and protect Israel (which is an absurd concept considering how independent-minded Jews are), God will give them brownie points, i.e. they can get away with a little more mischief on the side. This reveals an archaic concept of the New Testament God and the fact that the New Testament has superseded the Old Testament (OT), in a legal and spiritual sense. There is absolutely no salvation based on the OT, no matter how offensive or frustrating this may seem to some. These things were widely understood by the church up to the Enlightenment, but since then dimness has set in. I wonder whether the British-Israelism or Anglo-Israelism heresy has something to do with it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9430835.post-4058768713482944472009-03-13T00:28:00.000-07:002009-03-13T00:28:00.000-07:00Muslims blew up the WTC without any provocation fr...<I>Muslims blew up the WTC without any provocation from the US</I><BR/><BR/>LOL, it's a tribute to the American media that people can write something like this without smirking.<BR/><BR/><I>We have nothing in common with the Saudis other than oil.
