NO MORE JEWISH WARS FOR ISRAEL!
By Patrick Grimm
It seems that now even Ahmadinejad, the President of Iran must prove his philo-Semitic credentials. It is very, very telling when even the leader of an Islamic republic must clear the air by assuring the world that he is not anti-Semitic and does not hate Jews. Even ol’ Mahmud must prostrate himself before the power of Big Jewry and proclaim that the enemy is not Judaism, but Zionism.
While being no great fan of Iran or much of the Islamic world, I believe that this is a mistake. Regardless of what Ahmadinejad does to placate the international Jewish community, this will not stop the smothering forces of organized pro-Israel Judeocon cheerleaders from calling for the displacement of the current leadership in Iran. I am not even saying that the current leadership of Iran is good or honest or deserving of support. I simply don’t believe it is America’s or Israel’s place to topple any government that they happen not to like at the moment.
But the current disinformation campaign against Iran is all part of the Jewish neo-conservative media’s agenda to foment more war for greater Israel and its inevitable expansion on the backs of other nations. The Jews who run the Fox Neocon Channel are the biggest backers of the AIPAC/ADL War Party platform and to their disreputable credit, they have a nice pliable puppet in the White House, and an evil and scheming neo-conservative Vice President in the shadows, who will give them exactly what they want.
As Juan Cole reminds us in his spectacular new article “If Ahmadinejad is a genocidal maniac who just wants to kill Jews, then why are there 20,000 Jews in Iran with a member of parliament in Tehran? Couldn’t he start at home if that was what he is really about?” [1] Exactly. Why would the Jewish community in Iran feel so comfortable and non-threatened if Iran did indeed desire the extermination of all Jewish people? This is a laughable farce, and yet the Bush administration tries to distill it down for the public and label it as “clear-eyed foreign policy.” It is anything but and no one is buying this time out.
