Alexis on July 26, 2015 Israeli military historian Martin van Creveld: "We possess several hundred atomic warheads and rockets and can launch them at targets in all directions, perhaps even at Rome. Most European capitals are targets for our air force…" “Are you sure the Mossad didn’t contact you, Mademoiselle?” Last March, Zachary Keck of the National Interest declared that no U.S. president “can stomach” Benjamin Netanyahu.[1] Why? Keck basically detailed that Netanyahu does not care whether his ideas will be in conflict with what the United States stands for; he only cares about propagating his own ideological plan, “carving out a high public profile for himself,” and even pulling out the Holocaust or anti-Semitism card whenever U.S. officials disagree with him. Keck wrote: “Bibi began conjuring up Holocaust imagery long before the Iranian nuclear threat emerged… Indeed, when the Bush administration called on the Shamir government to halt all Jewish settlements on Arab land, Netanyahu told an Israeli news outlet that, ‘the meaning of the American demand is to return Israel to the borders of Auschwitz.’ “Netanyahu’s bombast during this period would also land him in Secretary of State James Baker’s doghouse. Specifically, in 1992 the State Department announced that the Palestine Liberation Organization had honored its pledge to renounce terrorism. Netanyahu, who actively opposed Washington’s dealings with the PLO, responded by telling reporters, ‘It is astonishing that a superpower like the United States… is building its policy on a foundation of distortion and lies.’ “Baker was so outraged by the accusation that he took the unusual step of banning Netanyahu from the State Department. ‘His language was unacceptable for a senior diplomat from a friendly country,” Baker later wrote in his memoirs. “I promptly banned him from the State Department.’ “Baker wasn’t the only Bush administration official who wanted Bibi banned from government premises. Robert Gates, who served in the administration as deputy national security advisor and later as CIA Director, advocated barring Netanyahu from the White House. “Writing years later in his own memoirs, Gates recounted that after he first met Netanyahu in 1991, ‘I was offended by his glibness and his criticisms of U.S. policy—not to mention his arrogance and outlandish ambition—and I told national security adviser Brent Scowcroft that Bibi ought not be allowed back on White House grounds.’ “Gates and Bibi would go on to work together extensively over the following decades. Yet Gates was never able to shake his first impression of Bibi. In fact, in one of his last National Security Council meetings as Obama’s secretary of defense, Gates delivered a diatribe against Bibi, telling President Obama that he is an ‘ungrateful’ ally, among other criticisms.”[2] Netanyahu didn’t get along with Bill Clinton either. He knew pretty well that Clinton wouldn’t let him get away with the concentration camp that Israel has created in the Gaza Strip.[3] The Times of Israel reported last year: “An activist said of Netanyahu, ‘If we don’t force him to have peace, we won’t have peace.’ ‘First of all, I agree with that,’ Clinton said. ‘But in 2000, [former Prime Minister] Ehud Barak, I got him to agree to something I’m not sure I would have gotten Rabin to agree to, and Rabin was murdered for giving land to the Palestinians.’ “‘But Netanyahu is not the guy,” suggested the activist. “‘I agree with that, but…I had him [Arafat] a state… He would have gotten 96% of the West Bank, land swaps in Gaza, appropriate water rights and East Jerusalem, something that hasn’t even been discussed since I left office,” Clinton replied.’”[4] So, Netanyahu used the Monica Lewinsky debacle to blackmail Clinton and shut him down. When weak men like Clinton fall into their own lust and sexual passion to the exclusion of morality and practical reason, Netanyahu comes along and politicizes the issue for his own ideological purpose.[5] Netanyahu even used the Monica Lewinsky debacle “to leverage the release of Jonathan Pollard,”[6] the Jewish spy who was caught red-handed passing classified documents to Israeli officials while working as a civilian analyst for the U.S. Navy.[7] What was quite interesting was that the Israeli Mossad was highly involved in the Monica Lewinsky affair. The Mossad “began to intercept explicit phone calls from the president to Lewinsky. The recordings were couriered by diplomatic bag to Tel Aviv. On March 27, Clinton once more invited Lewinsky to the Oval Office and revealed he believed a foreign embassy was taping their conversations… “In Tel Aviv, Mossad’s strategies pondered how to use the highly embarrassing taped conversations; they were the stuff of blackmail—though no one suggested any attempt should be made to blackmail the president of the United States. “Some, however, saw the recordings as a potent weapon to be used if Israel found itself with its back to the wall in the Middle East and unable to count on Clinton’s support.”[8] Andrea Peyser of the New York Post declares that Lewinsky did not blame Clinton for what happened. Lewinsky herself said: “Sure, my boss took advantage of me. But I will always remain firm on this point: It was a consensual relationship.’’[9] So, the big questions which probably will never get a conclusive answer are simply these: was Lewinsky a honey trap? There is no serious evidence to suggest that she was, but I wouldn’t be surprise if the Mossad contacted her. The Israeli regime has a history of doing just that.[10] Back in 2010, Haaretz reported: “An Israeli rabbi has given his blessing to female agents of Israel’s foreign secret service, Mossad, who may be required to have sex with the enemy in so-called “honey-pot” missions against terrorists. Rabbi Ari Shvat’s ruling appeared in a study, ‘Illicit sex for the sake of national security,’ published by the Tzomet Institute, which studies the interface between religion and modernity. “There is a catch, however, for married honey-pots. ‘If it is necessary to use a married woman, it would be best [for] her husband to divorce her. … After the [sex] act, he would be entitled to bring her back,’ Schvat wrote. ‘Naturally, a job of that sort could be given to a woman who in any event is licentious in her ways.’”[11] More [link to lockerdome.com] Correct |
