OLD NEWS?  NEW NEWS? WITH ISRAEL, IT’S ALL THE SAME

March 28, 2022 By J. Michael Springmann

Israeli Spies Killed, Wounded in Attack in Iraq | Farsnews Agency

This article first appeared in the American Herald Tribune, a publication twice shut down by the US government

Zionist Noses.  According to the September 12, 2019  edition of the American political journal POLITICO, Israel “likely” placed cell phone surveillance devices around the White House and other “sensitive locations” in Washington, D.C.  The publication based it’s statement on three, unnamed, former senior U.S. officials with knowledge of the matter.  (The story, however, first broke in June 2018 in a variety of news outlets which noted that the devices, called “sting rays”, had been detected the previous year.)

Sting rays are not fish but are, as Politico described them, devices “which mimic regular cell towers to fool cell phones into giving them their locations and identity information. Formally called international mobile subscriber identity-catchers or IMSI-catchers, they also can capture the contents of calls and data use.”  American police departments use them and such use has occasioned a series of lawsuits alleging violations of the 1st and 4th Amendments to the U.S. Constitution’s Bill of Rights, regarding freedom of speech and warrantless searches.

Israeli officials, as is normally the case, denied any involvement.  Donald Trump also denigrated the “alleged” Israeli activities, saying “My relationship with Israel has been great…Anything is possible but I don’t believe it.”

Why?  Donald Triumph has long been known to be less than security-conscious.  “POLITICO reported in May 2018 that the president often used an insufficiently secured cell phone to communicate with friends and confidants. The New York Times subsequently reported in October 2018 that “Chinese spies are often listening” to Trump’s cell phone calls, prompting the president to slam the story as “so incorrect I do not have time here to correct it.””  According to its sources, Trump’s phone, POLITICO said, has been hardened against intrusion.

But Isn’t This Old News?  Israel has been spying on the United States government, American businesses, and public officials for decades.  In the 1950s, former ambassador Andrew Kilgore once noted, Israel had planted microphones in the American embassy in Tel Aviv.

“As Paul Pillar, the CIA’s former national intelligence officer for the Near East and South Asia, told Newsweek [in May 2014], old habits are hard to break: Zionists were dispatching spies to America before there even was an Israel, to gather money and materials for the cause and later the fledgling state. Key components for Israel’s nuclear bombs were clandestinely obtained here. “They’ve found creative and inventive ways,” Pillar said, to get what they want.”

Then there was Jonathan Pollard, a U.S. Navy civilian employee.  He had been arrested in 1985 and sentenced to life in prison for passing suitcases full of highly-classified documents to Israeli intelligence.  After much Zionist pressure, his life term was commuted to 30 years and he was released.

In the first half of 2001, “Israeli art students” attempting to sell their wares turned up at government offices in 40 U.S. cities.  They were attempting to penetrate the Drug Enforcement Administration and other U.S. government agencies, including those with addresses not known to the public.  Salon, a news and opinion website, wrote in May 2002:  “According to one account, some 140 Israeli nationals were detained or arrested between March 2001 and Sept. 11, 2001.  Many of them were deported. According to the INS [Immigration and Naturalization Service], the deportations resulted from violations of student visas that forbade the Israelis from working in the United States… After the Sept. 11 attacks, many more young Israelis — 60, according to one AP dispatch and other reports — were detained and deported.”

The journalist Wayne Madsen has written extensively about the “art students” and this writer can attest that they are still operating.  A few years ago, he once visited the Pentagon City Mall (near the iconic military headquarters). A sales girl, from a cart hawking perfume, approached him, asking if he had ever been to her country, Israel.

Yet, for obvious reasons, there has been little investigation of this by the Zionist-controlled U.S. media.

It Gets More Technical.  As Christopher Ketcham wrote in a September 2008 issue of CounterPunch, “Since the late 1990s, federal agents have reported systemic communications security breaches at the Department of Justice, FBI, DEA, the State Department, and the White House.  Several of the alleged breaches, these agents say, can be traced to two hi-tech [Israeli] communications companies, Verint Inc. (formerly Comverse Infosys), and Amdocs Ltd., that respectively provide major wiretap and phone billing/record-keeping software contracts for the U.S. government.  Together, Verint and Amdocs form part of the backbone of the government’s domestic intelligence surveillance technology.”

The article went on to quote Philip Giraldi, former CIA counterterrorism and counterintelligence officer.  He said “This is par for the course in the history of Israeli penetrations in the U.S.”   Quoting annual FBI reports called “Foreign Economic Collection and Industrial Espionage”, Giraldi noted Israel is second only to China in stealing U.S. business secrets.  One FBI account added “Israel has an active program to gather proprietary information within the United States. These collection activities are primarily directed at obtaining information on military systems and advanced computing applications that can be used in Israel’s sizable armaments industry.”  A key Israeli method, warns the FBI report, is computer intrusion.

And In The End?  Do we force Israel to divest itself of its spies and its companies deeply involved in espionage in the United States?  Do we block visas for Israelis to enter this country?  Do we end American financial support of Israel:  $10 million a day/365 days a year?  Plus tax-free purchase of Israeli bonds?  Plus sales of Israeli-controlled consumer goods like Tribe and Sabra Hummus or Ahava beauty products?

Would government officials with knowledge of Israeli espionage activities admit their failures and resign?  Would the American press cover this?  In a country that passes laws to condemn criticism of Israel?  Or of Boycott, Divestment, Sanctions (BDS).  Not hardly.

The United States of America is completely under the control of Israel and its Zionists.  Things will not change until Israel does.

WHAT HATH NETANYAHU WROUGHT? The Israel & UAE Agreememt

March 25, 2022 By J. Michael Springmann

This was originally published in The American Herald Tribune, now shut down by the US government.

 

Is God Really All Powerful? If So, Why Does He Rely On The U.S., Israel & The UAE To Do Satan’s Work? According to the Washington Post, Binyamin Netanyahu has produced a minor miracle. As the paper noted August 14, “…it unites Israel with a powerful Persian Gulf ally of Washington that shares the view of Iran as an enemy.”  The journal, notably anti-Trump, nevertheless, quoted him as saying “By uniting two of America’s closest and most capable partners in the region–something which [was] said could not be done–this deal is a significant step towards building a more peaceful, secure, and prosperous Middle East…”

But, buried farther on in the story, all was not sweetness and light. The Palestinian Authority (PA), nominally governing the Occupied West Bank, “condemned the accord as betrayal.” Furthermore, it termed the agreement as “aggression against the Palestinian people.” Speaking the naked truth, the PA said that neither the UAE nor any other party had a right to speak on behalf of Palestine. It then withdrew its ambassador to the UAE in protest.           (The Post did not mention Hamas’ sharply negative reaction until farther on, even though it governs all Gaza.)

The journal went on to quote UAE officials as saying, rather improbably, that they established relations with Israel to forestall Netanyahu’s plans to annex the West Bank [in reality, what was left of it] to give the Palestinians a homeland. (They had had a homeland; the Zionists took it away from them in 1948.)   Surprisingly, the paper noted that UAE Foreign Minister Anwar Gargash believed the two-state “solution” had been threatened and they had to act.

Notably, the paper quoted Netanyahu as saying “The deal was struck. Without Israel having to give up territory it has effectively controlled for more than 50 years of conflict with the Palestinians.” Turning to Jared Kushner, Trump’s Zionist son-in-law and leader of his Middle East peace effort, the Post wrote that “the larger aim of Kushner’s plan[s]was always for Israel to forge new economic partnerships with many of its neighbors, especially Sunni Arab states that share the U.S. and Israeli view of Iran as an enemy.” (Does this mean Saudi Arabia and the Gulf statelets, some of the most authoritarian, repressive, medieval monarchies in the world?)

In the article, Kushner opined on the Palestinian outrage (without any opposing comment or background on the matter) that “they (the Palestinians) have a fairly predictable response that we’ve seen time and time again to all types of things that help make their peoples’ lives better…”

The paper’s columnist David Ignatius, ever the supporter of the American intelligence services, concludes his August 14 column with “Trump’s surprise announcement…[is] welcome news for Israel, the Arabs, and the United States.”

Welcome News? Hussein Ibish, Ph.D., once the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee’s spokesman and now a flack for the Arab Gulf States Institute in Washington, D.C. subtitled one of his many articles for Bloomberg News that the agreement meant “ Joy in Cairo, relief in Amman, anger in Ankara and alarm in Tehran.“  In it, he writes:

Riyadh has also clearly been interested in strengthening relations with Israel as a counter to Iran, and will pay close attention to how the UAE fares in the coming months.

Jared Kushner, President Donald Trump’s point-man on the Middle East, has suggested that another Arab country will follow the UAE’s lead. There’s speculation that Bahrain and Oman will make announcements soon. Manama generally defers to Riyadh on defense and foreign policy issues, so any Bahraini normalization with Israel would serve as a trial balloon for Saudi Arabia as well. But such a Saudi move may only come after the end of the rule of King Salman, who seems committed to the API. [Arab Peace Initiative.]

Formal diplomatic ties with Israel would embellish Oman’s credentials as a regional mediator and a friend to all. Muscat maintains close relations with Iran, but also welcomed Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on an official visit in 2018. Oman has, in typically understated fashion, welcomed the announcement.

All three of these Gulf Arab countries have quietly been increasing relations with Israel anyway, so normalization is merely a matter of formalizing what already exists.

Turkey has trade relations with Israel and the UAE but is at cross purposes with them on most issues. Erdogan routinely lambasts Israel over Palestine, and will not take kindly to recent Israeli moves in the Eastern Mediterranean.

…[B]ehind Tehran’s bluster will be grave concern that two of its more active and potent adversaries in the region have come together under Trump’s offices. Increased military and intelligence cooperation between the U.S., Israel and the UAE would indeed be dangerous for the Islamic Republic.

More Riders On The Train To Nowhere.  Ibish asserts that Egypt likes the agreement because “it potentially strengthens the Egyptian-Emirati hand in Libya against Turkish-supported forces for control of the country.” (Cf. ahtribune.com/world/north-africa-south-west-asia/4349-turkey-changing-the-middle-east.html). Continuing, he claims that Morocco might be another country looking for an opening with Israel. Dr. Ibish goes on to say “The biggest winner outside of the three parties directly involved in the agreement is surely Jordan, because it allows at least the hope of a Palestinian state in the future. (Yes, he still believes in the long-dead “two-state solution”.

Let’s Throw Some Cold Water On The Celebratory Candles And Let The Ants Eat The Cake. The whole affair is not anything like Richard Nixon’s diplomatic recognition of China.  The Middle Kingdom occupied and still occupies a good portion of the earth’s surface and has a huge chunk of its population.           Israel is an illegitimate and artificial construct, built on theft of Palestinian land and existing only because of the United States. The American taxpayer, gives, without likely knowing it, $10 million a day to Apartheid Israel. Then, there are U.S. military sales. In fiscal year 2019, the U.S. provided $3.8 billion in foreign military aid to Israel. Israel also benefits from about $8 billion of loan guarantees. From illegal outposts to academic research, from legal aid for Jewish terrorists to yeshivas, the tens of millions of dollars that U.S. non-profits send each year to the colonies support all sorts of activities in Jewish enclaves across the West Bank. (U.S. donors to these charities can claim tax deductions.)

Then there are Israeli products like Sabra and Tribe hummus.   They occupy prominent positions on the shelves of American grocery stores. Sabra, half-owned by the Strauss Company, an Israeli firm, and Pepsi Cola, donates food packages to the Israeli army’s infamous Golani Brigade, noted for its war crimes against Palestinians. The company has more than 60% of the American market and sells more than $1 billion a year. (It’s repatriation of profits to Israel is unknown.) Tribe hummus is owned by an Israeli firm, Orem, a key supporter and partner of the Jewish National Fund (JNF). The Fund continues its work of appropriating land for Jews and evacuating Palestinians.  Tribe’s U.S. sales are much smaller than Sabra’s.

The Real Goal. Yes, the agreement might be good, in the short term, for the UAE economy and for Israel’s. It might even help the other riders on the train. However, the aim of the agreement, as has been clear from the Washington Post and Hussein Ibish, and others who parrot the party line, is the complete and utter destruction of Iran–its government, its foreign policy, and its people.

The idea is to split the Arab and Muslim worlds, to the advantage of Zionist Israel and the United States. Look at what has been done to date. The UAE, with its military aid to war-torn Libya and its invasion of Yemen, the poorest country in the Arab world, is not a peace-loving state. And it is hostile to Iran, as are the other Persian Gulf statelets, notably Bahrain, headquarters of the American 5th Fleet. Saudi Arabia, which believes itself to be the real leader of the region, the real leader of the Arab nations, and the real leader of Islam, has been holding not-so-secret talks with Israel and is considering joining the agreement. Other countries are as well.

The U.S. has nuclear weapons. Israel does.  Saudi Arabia is interested in them–and has the means to deliver them using its Chinese-made Silkworm Intermediate Range Ballistic Missiles. The UAE has one nuclear reactor in operation and plans to build four more. How long would it take to produce enough fissionable material to make a bomb? And which country might be their target?

Iran has, in the past, made numerous statements that the countries of the region should cooperate in maintaining peace and order and security–not outsiders. Yet, what do we have? The United States, from halfway around the world, working with Israel, a land of European immigrants, against the Islamic Republic of Iran and the stability of the entire Middle East. The guide might be trade and diplomatic relations, but, in reality, what we have is a Trojan Horse, designed to unleash major trouble on the area.

And the Palestinians? As usual, they get absolutely nothing out of any agreement in which Israel, the United States, and any Arab country are involved. There is always the smear that they are ungrateful for any “help” given them. They should accept the “two-state solution”, settling on whatever bit of land outsiders might want to give them. They should give up on the right of return for the nearly 7 million exiled Palestinians. Since 1967, the UN has been trying to get Apartheid Israel out of lands it seized in the 6-Day War.  Since the 1978 Camp David Agreements, the U.S. has been “trying” to get the Israelis to withdraw from land it’s taken over the years. And since 1948, no one, absolutely no one, other than the people involved and Iran, has recognized the invasion and occupation of Palestine.

Arabs have told this writer that their people only cooperate if they see an advantage in doing so.  To date, what little collaboration there is has only worked to their detriment–if they could but see it. The Israeli Yinon Plan, to make the Apartheid Entity strong by dividing and weakening the Arab neighbors, seems to have been forgotten. This wretched agreement among Israel, the UAE, and the United States is simply a diplomatic and economic elaboration of that concept. And, so far, it seems to be working.
