Lets begin with this quote” Any deal with Iran must include a clear and unam­bigu­ous recog­ni­tion by Tehran of Israel’s right to exist”. Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu said.
What exact­ly would the world look like if America uses it mil­i­tary might to oblit­er­ate every coun­try or group of peo­ple who holler “death to America”?
Would there even be a world?
This has been the cen­tral argu­ment behind Netanyahu’s aggres­sive stance against Iran. That Iran does not rec­og­nize Israel’s right to exist.
Using that log­ic every pow­er­ful coun­try has the right to break less pow­er­ful coun­tries who dare have an oppos­ing world view.
The rea­son behind Netanyahu’s obses­sion with bring­ing Iran to it’s knees requires some scrutiny.
Israel has not adhered to any United Nation’s res­o­lu­tions, it has man­aged to thumb it’s nose at the world because of its pow­er­ful friends , The United States, England and France.
Netanyahu’s arro­gance, and his cheek­i­ness is well known, he is not afraid to open­ly defy his most pow­er­ful backer, despite President Obama’s oppo­si­tion to a war with Iran.
He is com­fort­able in the knowl­edge that there are more than enough lack­eys and shills in the con­gress bought and paid for with Jewish lob­by’s money.

Netanyahu is sin­gu­lar­ly focused on the destruc­tion of Iran not because Iran is guilty of any greater trans­gres­sion that Israel has not equaled or sur­passed. His goal is to have Iran so neutered that Israel will wield the only real pow­er in the region.
The biggest oppo­si­tion to Israel’s geo­graph­i­cal expan­sion in Palestine is hin­dered by Hamas and Hezbollah both allies and pro­teges of Iran.
Understanding the dynam­ics of this sce­nario is crit­i­cal to under­stand­ing exact­ly what exact­ly are the real burn­ing issues in that Region.
One does not have to set foot in the region to under­stand that at the heart of many con­flicts in the region is the Palestinian Israeli con­flict aid­ed and abet­ted by the United States and oth­er west­ern power.

Now lets not kid our­selves Iran is no Angel but nei­ther is Israel.
Israel is report­ed to poss­es in excess of 200 nuclear bombs.
What gives Israel the right to pos­sess Bombs Iran or any oth­er nation are not allowed to have because of the nuclear non-pro­lif­er­a­tion treaty?
No one wants a world with nuclear bombs in the hands of every nation.
However we heard the same argu­ments when the Indians and the Pakistani’s declared they had nuclear bombs.
All of that noise has now dis­s­a­peared, nei­ther Pakistan nor India has used Nuclear weapons to threat­en nor oblit­er­ate anyone.
Nuclear weapons are essen­tial­ly bar­gain­ing chips, sta­tus symbols.
Of course in the hand of bad actors they can make for real­ly bad situations.
The United States how­ev­er is the only nation to ever have used an atom­ic device.
This caused a mad rush by oth­er pow­ers, soon the Soviet Union France and England announced they were nuclear armed as well, China , India , and Pakistan and some believe North Korea was to follow.
Each pow­er despite their fear­some arse­nal are mind­ful that the use of nuclear weapons on anoth­er coun­try will elic­it a mas­sive response from the oth­er coun­try or that coun­try’s protectors.

What’s impor­tant to note is that it is clear that the only pow­ers who should have nuclear weapons are Caucasian pow­ers. France, Britain,Russia, The United States.
Of course it was not exact­ly a cel­e­bra­tion when Asia joined the pres­ti­gious club.
China, India and Pakistan was to become mem­bers of that spe­cial group.
Nevertheless Israel was allowed to have the very weapons they are fight­ing tooth and nail to keep from the hands of oth­er nations.
The bomb must be kept from the hands of non-white peo­ple at all cost.

Mawuna Remarque KOUTONIN Monday, June 17th, 2013 at 9:47 pm. writing for Silicon Africa in an Articled titled  The Dark Truth About Why South Africa Destroyed Its Nuclear Weapons in 1990's.
Why would any country voluntarily dismantle its nuclear weapons which take years and billions to develop?South Africa is the only country which ever give up its nuclear dissuasion power. But Why? Did they dismantle the country’s nuclear weapons because they believed in a vision of an Africa free of nuclear weapons, as the press reported?

NO.

The white apartheid regime didn’t want a Black Nation to possess nuclear weapon, a dissuasive power in our contemporary world. Foreseeing a democratic South Africa where Black people will be in power, the white regime destroyed all the country’s main military facilities, ballistics missiles and dismantling all six complete nuclear weapons shortly after the release of Nelson Mandela from prison in 1990.

South Africa hastily joined the Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT), and seven weeks later the country signed a Comprehensive Safeguards Agreement with the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

According to Greg Mills “South African authorities co-operated fully with the IAEA during the whole verification process, and were commended by the then director-general of the Agency in 1992, Dr. Hans Blix, for providing inspectors with unlimited access and data beyond those required by the Safeguards Agreement“ In less than 3 years all South Africa’s ballistic missiles were scrapped, its six nuclear weapons dismantled, and any remaining missile engines destroyed.

To prevent any future attempt by any upcoming South African administration to empower the country, the apartheid regime enacted the most self-restricting legislation in the form of the “Act on the Non-proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction” that makes provision for a South African Council for Non-proliferation of Weapons of Mass Destruction to control exports of dual-use materials, equipment and technology. While South African apartheid leaders’ actions were met with praise by the western medias and leaders, many saw this speedy destruction of  all the country main military infrastructures as a sign that the racist apartheid regime and many western countries didn’t want  the upcoming Black leaders to inherit such a powerful arsenal.

“The whole thing was dressed up as an honourable retreat from a nuclear Africa”said Frans Cronje, deputy CEO of the South African Institute of Race Relations, a Johannesburg-based think tank.

“A nuclear African state would be taken more seriously and would have a stronger leadership role – it forces people to take you seriously. In leadership terms, renouncing nuclear weapons does the opposite – it reduces your influence in foreign affairs and international politics. If renouncing nuclear weapons grows your influence, others would be falling over themselves to surrender their nuclear arsenals.” continued Frans Cronje While a racist, violent, and brutal oppression white apartheid regime was trusted to have and manage nuclear weapons, a Black and democratically elected regime was not trusted to  manage them. That historic decision was all about racism. Nothing else. South Africa would today be stronger on the international stage if it had retained a nuclear arsenal.

This cannot be lost on the United States nor any of the countries which found themselves in America's cross-hairs after America was done with them.
The list is long, Iran, Chile, Panama,Iraq, Nicaragua.
During the Cold War, both the State and Defense departments dubbed Mandela’s political party, the African National Congress, a terrorist group, and Mandela’s name remained on the U.S. terrorism watch list till 2008.

Presidents Carter and Reagan and Congress had all instituted sanctions against the white minority South African government because of its policy of racial apartheid. But in 1986, Reagan condemned Mandela’s group, the ANC, which was leading the black struggle against the apartheid regime, saying it engaged in "calculated terror ... the mining of roads, the bombings of public places, designed to bring about further repression." The terrorist designation finally proved too embarrassing for the U.S. government to ignore. In April 2008, during the last year of the George W. Bush administration, Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice told a Senate committee that her department had to issue waivers for ANC members to travel to the United States. "This is a country with which we now have excellent relations, South Africa, but it's frankly a rather embarrassing matter that I still have to waive in my own counterpart, the foreign minister of South Africa, not to mention the great leader Nelson Mandela," Rice said then.

Before Osama Bin Laden was public enemy #1, he was America's freedom fighter of the Mujaheddin Guerrilla group fighting America's proxy war against the Soviet Union in Afghanistan.

Columnist Max Fisher wrote.

Ben Gurion fundamentally believed that Israeli Jews were the architects of America's nuclear program. He believed they had a right and indeed a duty to do the same for Israel.
Pride, the very pride Iran feels in the development of it's own program. Israel gets to keep over 200 nuclear bombs , no one else in the region must have that right.
Hegemony and total domination is what Israel craves.
Iranian scientists have been murdered, Iran has had it's computer systems attacked yet Israel claims they want to live in peace , even as their agents murder Iranians on Iranian soil and the Mossad is actively engaged in cyber warfare against Iran.
Max Fisher's Article in the Washington Post make interesting read , even though it's slant is predictably Pro-Israel , it gives a small window into the truth of Israel's nuclear Arsenal which no one talks about.

President Obama took to the Airwaves to explain to the world the choic­es the world had in deal­ing with the issue of Iran’s nuclear program.
Before Obama could get to the micro­phone once a deal was reached Israeli Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz issued a state­ment point­ing to Iran’s alleged involve­ment in Yemen and talked about what he sees as Iran’s sup­posed spon­sor­ing of ter­ror in the region.

Speaking to Israel Radio as crunch talks on Iran’s nuclear pro­gram con­tin­ued in Switzerland, Steinitz said Israel would seek to counter any threat through diplo­ma­cy and intel­li­gence but “if we have no choice we have no choice… the mil­i­tary option is on the table.”

Asked about pos­si­ble US objec­tions to Israeli mil­i­tary action, Steinitz point­ed to Israel’s uni­lat­er­al attack against the Osirak nuclear reac­tor in Saddam Hussein’s Iraq in 1981.

“That oper­a­tion was not car­ried out in agree­ment with the United States,” he said.

Steinitz, a close ally of Benjamin Netanyahu, said the Israeli leader had left no doubt as to the country’s response to nuclear-armed Iran.“The prime min­is­ter has said clear­ly that Israel will not allow Iran to become a nuclear pow­er,” Steinitz said.

Introduction

The ques­tion of war or peace with Iran rests with the poli­cies adopt­ed by the White House and the US Congress. The peace over­tures by new­ly elect­ed Iranian President Rohani have res­onat­ed favor­ably around the world, except with Israel and its Zionist acolytes in North America and Europe . The first nego­ti­at­ing ses­sion pro­ceed­ed with­out recrim­i­na­tion and result­ed in an opti­mistic assess­ment by both sides. Precisely because of the ini­tial favor­able response among the par­tic­i­pants, the Israeli gov­ern­ment esca­lat­ed its pro­pa­gan­da war against Iran . Its agents in the US Congress, the mass media and in the Executive branch moved to under­mine the peace process. What is at stake is Israel’s capac­i­ty to wage proxy wars using the US mil­i­tary and its NATO allies against any gov­ern­ment chal­leng­ing Israeli mil­i­tary suprema­cy in the Middle East, its vio­lent annex­a­tion of Palestinian ter­ri­to­ry and its abil­i­ty to attack any adver­sary with impunity.

To under­stand what is at stake in the cur­rent peace nego­ti­a­tions one must envi­sion the con­se­quences of fail­ure: Under Israeli pres­sure, the US announced that its ‘mil­i­tary option’ could be acti­vat­ed – result­ing in mis­sile strikes and a bomb­ing cam­paign against 76 mil­lion Iranians in order to destroy their gov­ern­ment and econ­o­my. Teheran could retal­i­ate against such aggres­sion by tar­get­ing US mil­i­tary bases in the region and Gulf oil instal­la­tions result­ing in a glob­al cri­sis. This is what Israel wants.

We will begin by exam­in­ing the con­text of Israel ’s mil­i­tary suprema­cy in the Middle East . We will then pro­ceed to ana­lyze Israel ’s incred­i­ble pow­er over the US polit­i­cal process and how it shapes the nego­ti­a­tion process today, with spe­cial empha­sis on Zionist pow­er in the US Congress.

The Context of Israeli Military Supremacy in the Middle East

Since the end of World War II , Israel has bombed, invad­ed and occu­pied more coun­tries in the Middle East and Africa than pre­vi­ous colo­nial pow­er, except the US . The list of Israel ’s vic­tims includes: Palestine , Syria , Lebanon , Egypt , Iraq , Jordan , Sudan and Yemen . If we include coun­tries where Israel has launched qua­si-clan­des­tine ter­ror­ist attacks and assas­si­na­tions, the list would be great­ly expand­ed to include a dozen coun­tries in Europe and Asia – includ­ing the US through its Zionist ter­ror network.

Israel ’s pro­jec­tion of mil­i­tary pow­er, its capac­i­ty for wag­ing offen­sive wars at will, is matched by its near-total impuni­ty. Despite their repeat­ed vio­la­tions of inter­na­tion­al law, includ­ing war crimes, Israel has nev­er been cen­sored at an inter­na­tion­al tri­bunal or sub­ject­ed to eco­nom­ic sanc­tions because the US gov­ern­ment uses its posi­tion to veto UN Security Council res­o­lu­tions and pres­sure its NATO-EU allies.

Israel’s mil­i­tary suprema­cy has less to do with the native tech­no-indus­tri­al ‘bril­liance’ of its war-mon­gers and more to do with the trans­fers and out­right theft of nuclear, chem­i­cal and bio­log­i­cal tech­nol­o­gy and weapons from the US (Grant Smith “Ten Explosive US Government Secrets of Israel” IRMEP). Overseas Zionists in the US and France have played a strate­gic (and trea­so­nous) role in steal­ing and ille­gal­ly ship­ping nuclear tech­nol­o­gy and weapon com­po­nents to Israel, accord­ing to an inves­ti­ga­tion by for­mer CIA Director Richard Helms.

Israel main­tains huge nuclear, chem­i­cal, and bio­log­i­cal weapon stock­piles refus­ing any access to inter­na­tion­al arms inspec­tors and is not oblig­ed to abide by the non-pro­lif­er­a­tion treaty, because of US diplo­mat­ic inter­ven­tion. Under pres­sure from the local ‘Zionist pow­er con­fig­u­ra­tion’ (ZPC), the US gov­ern­ment has blocked any action which might con­strain Israel ’s pro­duc­tion of weapons of mass destruc­tion. In fact the US con­tin­ues to pro­vide Israel with strate­gic weapons of mass destruc­tion for use against its neigh­bors – in vio­la­tion of inter­na­tion­al law.

US mil­i­tary aid and tech­nol­o­gy trans­fers to Israel exceed $100 bil­lion dol­lars over the past half cen­tu­ry. US diplo­mat­ic and mil­i­tary inter­ven­tion was cru­cial in res­cu­ing Israel from defeat dur­ing the 1973 war. US President Lyndon Johnson’s refusal to defend the unarmed intel­li­gence ship, the USS Liberty in 1967, after it had been bombed and napalmed by Israeli fight­er planes and war­ships in inter­na­tion­al waters, con­sti­tut­ed a tremen­dous vic­to­ry for Israel thanks to Johnson’s Zionist advis­ers. Because of its impuni­ty, even in killing American ser­vice­men, Israel has been giv­en a free hand to wage aggres­sive wars to dom­i­nate its neigh­bors, com­mit acts of ter­ror­ism and assas­si­nate its adver­saries through­out the world with­out fear of retaliation.

Israel ’s uncon­test­ed mil­i­tary supe­ri­or­i­ty has con­vert­ed sev­er­al of its neigh­bors to qua­si-client col­lab­o­ra­tors: Egypt and Jordan have served as de fac­to allies, along with the Gulf monar­chies, help­ing Israel repress the region’s nation­al­ist and pro-Palestinian move­ments.  

The most deci­sive fac­tor in the rise and con­sol­i­da­tion of Israel ’s pow­er in the Middle East has not been its mil­i­tary prowess but its polit­i­cal reach and influ­ence via its Zionist agents in the US . Washington ’s wars against Iraq and Libya , and its cur­rent sup­port of the mer­ce­nary assault against Syria , have destroyed three major sec­u­lar nation­al­ist oppo­nents of Israel ’s hege­mon­ic ambitions.

As Israel accu­mu­lates more pow­er in the region, expand­ing its col­o­niza­tion of Palestinian ter­ri­to­ry, it looks east­ward toward destroy­ing the last remain­ing obsta­cle to its colo­nial poli­cies: Iran .

For at least two decades, Israel has direct­ed its over­seas agents – (the ZPC) – to destroy the gov­ern­ment of Iran by desta­bi­liz­ing its soci­ety, assas­si­nat­ing its sci­en­tists, bomb­ing its mil­i­tary estab­lish­ments and lab­o­ra­to­ries and stran­gling its economy.

After the ZPC suc­cess­ful­ly pushed the US into war against Iraq in 2003 – lit­er­al­ly shred­ding its com­plex sec­u­lar soci­ety and killing over a mil­lion Iraqis – it turned its sights on destroy­ing Lebanon (Hezbollah) and the sec­u­lar gov­ern­ment of Syria as a way to iso­late Iran and pre­pare for an attack. While thou­sands of Lebanese civil­ians were slaugh­tered in 2006, Israel ’s attack of Lebanon failed, despite the sup­port of the US gov­ern­ment and the ZPC’s wild pro­pa­gan­da cam­paign. Hysterical at its fail­ure and to ‘com­pen­sate’ for its defeat at the hands of Hezbollah and to ‘boost morale’, Israel invad­ed and destroyed much of Gaza (2008÷9) – the world’s largest open air prison camp.

Lacking mil­i­tary capac­i­ty to attack Iran on its own, Israel direct­ed its agents to manip­u­late the US gov­ern­ment to start a war with Teheran. The mil­i­tarist lead­ers in Tel Aviv have unleashed their polit­i­cal assets (ZPC) through­out the US to work to destroy Iran – the last for­mi­da­ble adver­sary to Israel suprema­cy in the Middle East .

The Israeli-ZPC strat­e­gy is designed to set the stage for a US con­fronta­tion with Iran , using its agents in the Executive branch as well as its ongo­ing cor­rup­tion, bribery and con­trol of the US Congress. ZPC con­trol over the mass media enhances its pro­pa­gan­da cam­paign: Everyday the New York Times and the Washington Post pub­lish arti­cles and edi­to­ri­als pro­mot­ing Israel ’s war agen­da. The ZPC uses the US State Department to force oth­er NATO states to like­wise con­front Iran .

Israel’s Proxy War with Iran: US Political Pressure, Economic Sanctions and Military Threats

Alone, Israel’s ‘war’ with Iran would not amount to much more than its cyber sab­o­tage, the peri­od­i­cal assas­si­na­tions of Iranian sci­en­tists using its paid agents among Iranian ter­ror­ist groups and non-stop brow-beat­ing from Israeli politi­cians and their ‘amen crowd’. Outside of Israel , this cam­paign has had lit­tle impact on pub­lic opin­ion. Israel’s ‘was’ on Iran depends exclu­sive­ly on its capac­i­ty to manip­u­late US pol­i­cy using its local agents and groups who dom­i­nate the US Congress and through the appoint­ments of offi­cials in key posi­tions in the Departments of Treasury, Commerce, and Justice , and as Middle East ‘advi­sors’. Israel can­not orga­nize an effec­tive sanc­tion cam­paign against Iran ; nor could it influ­ence any major pow­er to abide by such a cam­paign. Only the US has that pow­er. Israel ’s dom­i­nance in the Middle East comes entire­ly from its capac­i­ty to mobi­lize its prox­ies in the United States who are assigned the task of secur­ing total sub­mis­sion to Israel ’s inter­ests from elect­ed and appoint­ed gov­ern­ment offi­cials – espe­cial­ly in regard to Israel ’s region­al adversaries.

Strategically placed, ‘dual US-Israeli cit­i­zens’ have used their US cit­i­zen­ship to secure high secu­ri­ty posi­tions in the Government direct­ly involved in poli­cies affect­ing Israel . As Israelis, their activ­i­ties are in line with the dic­tates of Tel Aviv. In the Bush admin­is­tra­tion (2001−2008) high placed ‘Israel Firsters’ dom­i­nat­ed the Pentagon (Paul Wolfowitz, Douglas Feith), Middle East Security (Martin Indyk, Dennis Ross), the Vice President’s office (‘Scooter’ Libby), Treasury (Levey) and Homeland Security (Michael Chertoff). In the Obama admin­is­tra­tion the ‘Israel Firsters’ include Dennis Ross, Rahm Emanuel, David Cohen, Secretary of Treasury Jack “Jake the Snake” Lew, Secretary of Commerce Penny Pritzker and Michael Froman as Trade Representative among others.

Israel ’s Proxy Power with­in the Executive branch is matched by its dom­i­nance of the US Congress. Contrary to some crit­ics, Israel is nei­ther an ‘ally’ or ‘client’ of the US . Evidence of the gross asym­me­try of the rela­tion abounds over the past half cen­tu­ry. Because of these pow­er­ful prox­ies in Congress and the Executive branch, Israel has received over $100 bil­lion dol­lar trib­ute from the US over the past 30 years, or $3 bil­lion plus a year. The US Pentagon has trans­ferred the most up-to-date mil­i­tary tech­nol­o­gy and engaged in sev­er­al wars on Israel ’s behalf. The US Treasury has imposed sanc­tions against poten­tial­ly lucra­tive trad­ing and invest­ment part­ners in the Middle East ( Iran , Iraq and Syria ) depriv­ing US agri­cul­tur­al and man­u­fac­tur­ing exporters and oil com­pa­nies of over $500 bil­lion in rev­enues. The White House sac­ri­ficed the lives of over 4,400 US sol­diers in the Iraq War – a war pro­mot­ed by Israel ’s prox­ies at the behest of Israel ’s lead­ers. The State Department has reject­ed friend­ly and prof­itable rela­tions with over 1.5 bil­lion Muslims by back­ing the ille­gal set­tle­ment of over half mil­lion Jewish colonists on mil­i­tary-occu­pied Palestinian land in the West Bank and Jerusalem .

The strate­gic ques­tion is how and why this one-sided rela­tion between the US and Israel per­sists for so long, even as it goes counter to so many strate­gic and élite US inter­ests? The more imme­di­ate and press­ing ques­tion is how this his­tor­i­cal­ly lop­sided rela­tion effects con­tem­po­rary US-Iran sanc­tions and nuclear negotiations?

Iran and the Peace Negotiations

Undoubtedly the new­ly elect­ed Iranian President and his Foreign Minister are pre­pared to nego­ti­ate an end to hos­til­i­ties with the US by mak­ing major con­ces­sions ensur­ing the peace­ful use of nuclear ener­gy. They have stat­ed they are open to reduc­ing or even end­ing the pro­duc­tion of high­ly enriched ura­ni­um; reduc­ing the num­ber of cen­trifuges and even allow­ing intru­sive, unan­nounced inspec­tions, among oth­er promis­ing pro­pos­als. The Iranian gov­ern­ment pro­pos­es a roadmap with end goals as part of the ini­tial agree­ments. The European Union’s Foreign Secretary Lady Ashton has com­ment­ed favor­ably on the ini­tial meeting.

The US Administration has giv­en con­flict­ing sig­nals fol­low­ing the Iranian over­tures and the open­ing meet­ing. Some indi­vid­ual com­ments are guard­ed­ly pos­i­tive; oth­ers are less encour­ag­ing and rigid. Administration Zionists like Jack ‘Jake’ Lew, the Treasury Secretary, insists sanc­tions will remain until Iran meets all US (read ‘Israeli’) demands. The US Congress, bought and con­trolled by the ZPC, rejects the promis­ing Iranian over­tures and flex­i­bil­i­ty, insist­ing on mil­i­tary ‘options’ or the total dis­man­tling of Iran’s legal and peace­ful nuclear pro­gram – ZPC posi­tions designed to sab­o­tage the nego­ti­a­tions. To that end, Congress has passed new, more extreme, eco­nom­ic sanc­tions to stran­gle the Iran ’s oil economy.

How Israel’s Political Action Committees Control the US Congress and Prepare War with Iran

The Zionist Power Configuration uses its finan­cial fire­pow­er to dic­tate Congressional pol­i­cy on the Middle East and to ensure that the US Congress and Senate do not stray one iota from serv­ing Israel ’s inter­ests. The Zionist instru­ment used in the pur­chase of elect­ed offi­cials in the US is the polit­i­cal action com­mit­tee (PAC).

Thanks to a 2010 US Supreme Court deci­sion, Super PACs-linked to Israel spend enor­mous sums to elect or destroy can­di­dates – depend­ing on the candidate’s polit­i­cal work on behalf of Israel . As long as these funds do not go direct­ly to the can­di­date, these Super PACs do not have to reveal how much they spend or how it is spent. Conservative esti­mates of ZPC- linked direct and indi­rect funds to US leg­is­la­tors run close to $100 mil­lion dol­lars over the past 30-year. The ZPC chan­nels these funds to leg­isla­tive lead­ers and mem­bers of Congressional com­mit­tees deal­ing with for­eign pol­i­cy, espe­cial­ly sub-com­mit­tee chair­per­sons deal­ing with the Middle East . Unsurprisingly, the largest Congressional recip­i­ents of ZPC mon­ey are those who have aggres­sive­ly pro­mot­ed Israel ’s hard-line poli­cies. Elsewhere around the world, such large scale pay­offs for leg­isla­tive votes would be con­sid­ered bla­tant bribery and sub­ject to felony prosecution­ and impris­on­ment for both par­ties. In the US , the pur­chase and sale of a politician’s vote is called ‘lob­by­ing’ and is legal and open. The leg­isla­tive branch of the US gov­ern­ment has come to resem­ble a high-price broth­el or white slavers’ auc­tion – but with the lives of thou­sands at stake.

The ZPC has pur­chased the alliance of US Congress peo­ple and Senators on a mas­sive scale: Of 435 mem­bers of the US House of Representatives (sic), 219 have received pay­ments from the ZPC in exchange for their votes on behalf of the state of Israel . Corruption is even more ram­pant among the 100 US Senators, 94 of whom have accept­ed pro-Israel PAC and Super PAC mon­ey for their loy­al­ty to Israel . The ZPC show­ers mon­ey on both Republicans and Democrats, thus secur­ing incred­i­ble (in this era of Congressional dead­lock), near unan­i­mous (‘bipar­ti­san’) votes in favor of the ‘Jewish State’, includ­ing its war crimes, like the bomb­ing of Gaza and Lebanon as well as the annu­al $3 bil­lion dol­lar plus US tax-pay­er trib­ute to Tel Aviv. At least 50 US Senators have each col­lect­ed between $100 thou­sand and $1 mil­lion in ZPC mon­ey over the past decades . In exchange, they have vot­ed for over $100 bil­lion in trib­ute pay­ments to Israel … in addi­tion to oth­er ‘ser­vices and pay­ments’. The mem­bers of the US Congress are cheap­er: 25 leg­is­la­tors have received between $238,000 and $50,000, while the rest got peanuts. Regardless of the amount, the net result is the same: Congressional mem­ber pick up their script from their Zionist men­tors in the PACs, Super PACs and AIPAC and back all of Israel ’s wars in the Middle East and pro­mote US aggres­sion on behalf of Israel . 

The most out­spo­ken and influ­en­tial leg­is­la­tors get the biggest chunk of Zionist pay­ola: Senator Mark Kirk (Bombs over Teheran!) tops the ‘pigs at the trough’ list with $925,000 in ZPC pay­offs, fol­lowed by John McCain (Bombs over Damascus!) with $771,000, while Senators Mitch McConnell, Carl Levin, Robert Menendez, Richard Durban and oth­er Zionophilic politi­cos are not shy about hold­ing out their lit­tle beg­ging bowls when the pro-Israel PAC bag­men arrive! Florida Congresswoman Ileana Ros-Lehtinen tops the ‘House’ list with $238,000 for her 100% pro-Israel record as well as for being more war-mon­ger­ing than even Netanyahu! Eric Cantor got $209,000 for cham­pi­oning ‘wars for Israel ’ with American lives while cut­ting Social Security pay­ments to US seniors in order to increase mil­i­tary aid to Tel Aviv. House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer, got $144,000 for ‘whip­ping the few wob­bly’ Democrats back into Israel ’s ‘camp’. House Majority Leader John Boehner was paid $130,000 to do the same among the Republicans.

The ZPC has spent huge amounts to pun­ish and destroy a dozen or so dis­si­dent leg­is­la­tors who had stood up to Israel ’s wars and grotesque human rights record. The ZPC has poured mil­lions into indi­vid­ual cam­paigns, not only financ­ing oppo­si­tion can­di­dates who pledged alle­giance to the Israel but mount­ing scur­rilous char­ac­ter assas­si­na­tions of Israel’s crit­ics in office. These cam­paigns have been mount­ed in the most obscure parts of the US , includ­ing in major­i­ty African-American dis­tricts, where local Zionist inter­ests and influ­ence are oth­er­wise absolute­ly nil.

There are no com­pa­ra­ble PACs, Super PACs, par­ty lead­ers, or civic orga­ni­za­tion that can con­test the pow­er of Israel ’s Fifth Column. According to doc­u­ments archived by the coura­geous researcher, Grant Smith of IRMEP, when it comes to Israel , the US Justice Department has adamant­ly refused to enforce its own fed­er­al laws requir­ing the pros­e­cu­tion of US cit­i­zens who fail to reg­is­ter as for­eign agents while work­ing for a for­eign coun­try – at least since 1963. On the oth­er hand, the ZPC, through the so-call ‘Anti-Defamation League’, has suc­cess­ful­ly pres­sured the Justice Department, the FBI and NSA to inves­ti­gate and pros­e­cute law-abid­ing, patri­ot­ic US cit­i­zens crit­i­cal of Israel ’s land grabs in Palestine and the Zionist cor­rup­tors of the US polit­i­cal sys­tem on behalf of their for­eign master.

The cor­rup­tion and degra­da­tion of US democ­ra­cy is made pos­si­ble by the equal­ly com­pro­mised and cor­rupt­ed ‘respectable press’. Media crit­ic, Steve Lendman, has point­ed out the direct link between Israel and the mass media in his inves­ti­ga­tion of the New York Times. The lead­ing (‘fair and bal­anced’) jour­nal­ists report­ing on Israel have strong fam­i­ly and polit­i­cal ties to that coun­try and their arti­cles have been lit­tle more than pro­pa­gan­da. Times reporter Ethan Bronner, whose son served in the Israel Defense Forces, is a long-time apol­o­gist for the Zionist state. Times reporter Isabel Kershner, whose ‘writ­ing’ seem to come straight out of the Israeli Foreign Office, is mar­ried to Hirsh Goodman an advis­er to the Netanyahu régime on ‘secu­ri­ty affairs’. The Times bureau chief in Jerusalem, Jodi Rudoren, lives com­fort­ably in the ances­tral home of a Palestinian fam­i­ly dis­pos­sessed from that ancient city.

The Times unflinch­ing pro-Israel pos­ture pro­vides a polit­i­cal cov­er and jus­ti­fi­ca­tion for the cor­rupt­ed US politi­cians as they beat the war drums for Israel . It is no sur­prise that the New York Times, like the Washington Post, is deeply engaged in dis­parag­ing and denounc­ing the cur­rent US-Iran nego­ti­a­tions – and pro­vid­ing ample space for the one-sided rhetoric of Israeli politi­cians and their US mouth­pieces, while stu­dious­ly exclud­ing the more ratio­nal, pro-rap­proche­ment voic­es of expe­ri­enced for­mer US diplo­mats, war-weary mil­i­tary lead­ers and rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the US busi­ness and aca­d­e­m­ic communities.

To under­stand Congress’ hos­til­i­ty to the nuclear nego­ti­a­tions with Iran and their efforts to scut­tle them through the impo­si­tion of ridicu­lous new sanc­tions, it is impor­tant to get to the source of the prob­lem, name­ly the state­ments of key Israeli politi­cians, who set the line of march for their US proxies.

In late October, 2013, Former Israeli Defense Intelligence Chief Amos Yadlin spoke of ‘hav­ing to choose between ‘the bomb’ or the bomb­ing’ – a mes­sage which imme­di­ate­ly res­onat­ed with the 52 Presidents of the Major American Jewish Organizations (Daily Alert, October 24, 2013). On October 22, 2013, Israel ’s Intelligence Minister Yuval Steinitz, called for harsh new sanc­tions on Iran and insist­ed that the US use them as lever­age to demand that Iran agree to entire­ly aban­don its peace­ful nuclear ener­gy and enrich­ment pro­gram. Defense Minister Moshe Ya’alon affirmed that ‘ Israel will not accept any deal that allows Iran to enrich ura­ni­um’. It is Israel ’s posi­tion to threat­en war (via the US ) if Iran does not sub­mit to uncon­di­tion­al sur­ren­der of its nuclear pro­gram. This defines the posi­tion of all the major pro-Israel PACs, Super PACs and AIPAC. They in turn pro­ceed to dic­tate pol­i­cy to their ‘lick-spit­tles’ in the US Congress. As a result, Congress pass­es even more extreme eco­nom­ic sanc­tions on Iran in order to sab­o­tage the ongo­ing negotiations. 

Those who have received the biggest Zionist pay-offs from the pro-Israel PACs are the most vocif­er­ous: Senator Mark Kirk ($925,379), author of a pre­vi­ous sanc­tions bill, demands that Iran end its entire nuclear and bal­lis­tic mis­sile pro­gram (!) and declared that the US Senate “should imme­di­ate­ly move for­ward with a new round of eco­nom­ic sanc­tions tar­get­ing all remain­ing Iranian gov­ern­ment rev­enue and reserves” (Financial Times, 10/​18/​13, p. 6). The US House of Representatives (sic) has already passed a bill sharply lim­it­ing Iran ’s abil­i­ty to sell its main export, oil. Once again, the Israel- ZPC – Congressional axis seeks to impose Israel ’s war agen­da on the American peo­ple! In late October 2013, Secretary of State Kerry was ‘grilled’ for 7 hours by Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu with the craven Kerry promis­ing to pro­mote Israel ’s agen­da on dis­man­tling Iran ’s nuclear enrich­ment program.

To counter the cam­paign to stran­gle Iran ’s oil econ­o­my, pro­mot­ed by Israel ’s flunkeys in the Congress, the Iranian gov­ern­ment has offered gen­er­ous con­tracts to the US and EU oil com­pa­nies (Financial Times 10/​29/​2013, p 1). Existing nation­al­ist pro­vi­sions are being removed. Under the new terms, for­eign com­pa­nies book reserves or take equi­ty stakes in Iranian projects. Iran hopes to attract at least $100 bil­lion dol­lars in invest­ments over the next three years. This sta­ble coun­try boasts the world’s largest gas and the fourth largest oil reserves. Because of the cur­rent US ( Israel )-imposed sanc­tions, pro­duc­tion has fall­en from 3.5 mil­lion bar­rels per day in 2011 to 2.58 mil­lion bar­rels per day in 2013. The ques­tion is whether ‘Big Oil’, the giant US and EU com­pa­nies have to pow­er to chal­lenge the ZPC-stran­gle­hold over US-EU sanc­tion pol­i­cy. So far, the ZPC has dom­i­nat­ed this crit­i­cal pol­i­cy and mar­gin­al­ized ‘Big Oil’ using threats, black­mail and coer­cion against US pol­i­cy­mak­ers. This has effec­tive­ly shut out US com­pa­nies from the lucra­tive Iranian market.

Conclusion

As the US and the 5 oth­er coun­tries attempt to nego­ti­ate with Iran , they face enor­mous obsta­cles over­com­ing Israel ’s pow­er over the US Congress. Over past decades Israel ’s agents have bought the loy­al­ties of the vast major­i­ty of Congress peo­ple, train­ing them to rec­og­nize and obey the whis­tles, sig­nals and script from the war mon­gers in Tel Aviv.

This ‘Axis of War’, has inflict­ed enor­mous dam­age on the world result­ing in the deaths of mil­lions of vic­tims of US wars in the Middle East, Southwest Asia and North Africa . The gross cor­rup­tion and wide­ly rec­og­nized bank­rupt­cy of the US leg­isla­tive sys­tem is due to its slav­ish sub­mis­sion to a for­eign pow­er. What remains in Washington is a debased vas­sal state despised by its own cit­i­zens. If the ZPC con­trolled Congress suc­ceeds once again in destroy­ing the nego­ti­a­tions between the US and Iran via new war-like res­o­lu­tions, we, the American peo­ple, will have to pay an enor­mous price in lives and treasure. 

The time to act is now. It is time to stand up and expose the role played by the Israeli PACs, Super PACs and the 52 Major American Jewish Organization in cor­rupt­ing Congress and turn­ing “our” elect­ed rep­re­sen­ta­tives into flunkeys for Israel’s wars. There has been a deaf­en­ing silence from our not­ed crit­ics –few alter­na­tive media crit­ics have attacked Israel ’s pow­er over the US Congress. The evi­dence is open­ly avail­able, the crimes are unde­ni­able. The American peo­ple need real polit­i­cal lead­ers with the courage to root out the cor­rupt­ed and cor­rup­tors and force their elect­ed mem­bers in the House and Senate to rep­re­sent the inter­est of the American people.

It’s impor­tant that there be an under­stand­ing of what the dri­vers are in this con­flict between Iran and Israel’s obses­sion with the destruc­tion of the Iranian people.

Indiana’s Republican Governor Mike Pence is now the recip­i­ent of the full force and pow­er of Homosexual pow­er and influence.
Governor Pence who recent­ly signed the Religious Freedom Act imme­di­ate­ly came under with­er­ing crit­i­cism from the Gay com­mu­ni­ty , Some in the Civil Rights com­mu­ni­ty and shock­ing­ly the busi­ness community.
Governor Pence said then quote: “We’re not going to change the law,” Indiana Gov. Mike Pence flat­ly said on ABC’s “This Week,” about the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which Pence says is meant to pre­vent the gov­ern­ment from imping­ing on a person’s reli­gious beliefs. “I was proud to sign it into law.”
Faced with scathing back­lash from the pow­er­ful Gay lob­by and their friends, Governor Pence announced he would like to see new Legislation which will fix the Bill he just signed into law.
“Wow”
The back­lash from the busi­ness com­mu­ni­ty was even more impactful.
Walmart came out against the law imme­di­ate­ly, a sim­i­lar ver­sion of the law was await­ing Arkansas Governor Asa Hutchinson’s signature.
Hutchinson also a Republican,had indi­cat­ed he would sign the bill.
The rip­ple effect was evi­dent Immediately after Walmart came out against the Law, Asa Hutchinson back-tracked say­ing he would not sign the bill await­ing his sig­na­ture in it’s cur­rent form.
Such is the pow­er of homo­sex­u­als and their pals.

How pow­er­ful it would be if pow­er-bro­kers like Walmart came out against insti­tu­tion­al­ized Racism and big­otry which has exist­ed in this coun­try for over four hun­dred years and still exists, rais­ing it’s ugly head daily.
How is it pos­si­ble that Racism has been able to sur­vive and thrive par­tic­u­lar­ly in the South and heart­land of America, while any­one stand­ing on chris­t­ian prin­ci­ples in these same states are forced to beat a hasty retreat from gays and their supporters?
He who con­trol the mon­ey con­trols the message.
Homosexuals con­trol both.
Walmart has ben­e­fit­ed great­ly from the black com­mu­ni­ty’s unwill­ing­ness and inabil­i­ty to cure it’s insa­tiable desire to spend.
The black com­mu­ni­ty which is slat­ed to spend between 1.3 and 1.5 tril­lion dol­lars on goods and ser­vices this year will undoubt­ed­ly be spend­ing a huge chunk of that in Walmart stores all across America.
Yet despite the con­stant killing of young unarmed black men by police,even in Walmart stores,Walmart has nev­er had a kind word or word of sup­port for the black community.
Walmart has been con­spic­u­ous­ly silent. Venturing only a pre­pared one line state­ment they pull from a dusty drawer.

This makes Walmart a fraud and a phony.
Walmart own­ers were nev­er know to be strong cor­po­rate cit­i­zens. Walmart’s sup­port for the LGBT cause, which by the way is against chris­t­ian prin­ci­ples, may only be con­strued as self-serving.
What of the right of peo­ple to say I do not want to do this because of my reli­gious belief?
Don’t they have a right to say no?
Why are elect­ed offi­cials allow­ing them­selves to be cowed by com­pa­nies like Walmart which have selec­tive self-right­eous ideas of civ­il rights?

Where is the chris­t­ian church on this issue?
This is not an issue of dis­crim­i­nat­ing against homosexuals.
It is a bill which defends the right of peo­ple to stand on their reli­gious beliefs with­out fear of crim­i­nal pros­e­cu­tion by Government.
The next step in this debate is that Christian Ministers will be per­se­cut­ed and pros­e­cut­ed for refus­ing to per­form homo­sex­u­al mar­riages in their Churches.
Oregon’s Sweet cakes by Melissa have already paid that price.
Don’t be fooled by the lies, it is a crawl­ing-peg road to per­se­cu­tion of Christians.
Governors and oth­er elect­ed offi­cials are ter­ri­fied of the con­se­quences of stand­ing on their chris­t­ian principles.
So they capit­u­late to the demon­ic forces of sodomy.
If America was built on chris­t­ian prin­ci­ples, why have America dis­card­ed those principles?
Most impor­tant­ly When did she?

Critical to Andrew Holness’s sur­vival as leader of Jamaica’s Opposition Jamaica Labor Party, is the fact that twen­ty of the JLP’s 21 MPs took part in the poll at the par­ty’s Belmont Road head­quar­ters in Kingston, with Holness being the only one with­out a vote. The result of the bal­lots showed that he had the sup­port of approx­i­mate­ly two-thirds of the MPs. Thirteen of the MPs sup­port­ed him remain­ing as their leader, while sev­en were opposed.
It is now time for the labor par­ty to unite and devel­op strat­e­gy on the best way for­ward for our country.
Those opposed to his lead­er­ship must now shut up sit down or find anoth­er party.
The labor par­ty as an enti­ty have been through these grow­ing pains before.
So too have the People’s National Party.

It was­n’t too long ago the nation was engrossed with the Spectacle of the Peter Phillips chal­lenge to Portia Simpson Miller’s lead­er­ship of that Party.
Unfortunately for Peter Phillips, Portia the pop­ulist had the back­ing of the par­ty’s old guard from the Michael Manley/​Percival Patterson wing

What dis­senters and detrac­tors of Andrew Holness’s lead­er­ship must now look at, is the rapid dis­patch with which the PNP fused around the lead­er­ship of Portia and once again became one party.
One par­ty which effec­tive­ly won a deci­sive victory.
As I wrote recent­ly pet­ty jeal­ousies and ego has been the JLP’s achilles heel, this has severe­ly affect­ed the par­ty’s abil­i­ty to win elections.
The time for that to end is now.

Those with­ing the par­ty who are con­sumed with their own agen­da must now sub­mit to his lead­er­ship or go join the PNP. It isn’t as if some haven’t already done so.
Of note is the incon­ve­nient lit­tle fact that Audley Shaw was absent from the Gospel event spon­sored by Evrald Warmington in Old Harbor St Catherine.
It may very well be that there were exten­u­at­ing cir­cum­stances which made it impos­si­ble for him to attend. 
However the optics were ter­ri­ble, par­tic­u­lar­ly at a time when Holness’s lead­er­ship was in question.
It is time now for Audley Shaw and oth­ers to be sup­port­ive of the leader of the par­ty or step aside.
The par­ty is big­ger than any one per­son or group of people.

It is time for the par­ty of Bustamante, Donald Sangster, and Hugh Lawson Shearer and Robert Lightbourne to step to the fore and offer lead­er­ship to our people. 
Leadership which will edu­cate our young people.
Take care of those who can­not take care of themselves.
Put our coun­try on a path to eco­nom­ic sustainability.
Develop strate­gies which will once again make the pri­vate sec­tor the engine of growth as opposed to bor­row­ing and mas­sive taxation.
Develop and main­tain our infra­struc­ture with a view to reduc­ing and elim­i­nat­ing urban sprawl.
Stop the whole­sale divest­ment of our coun­try’s vital assets.
Putting ade­quate laws in place which will reduce lawlessness,making our coun­try once again a place where peo­ple want to vis­it , invest in and a place where Jamaicans can be hap­py to call home.

These are some of the press­ing needs of our small nation.
The labor par­ty will not fix every­thing in one fell-swoop but it will indi­cate to the world that Jamaica is once again open for business.

“We’re not going to change the law,” Indiana Gov. Mike Pence flat­ly said on ABC’s “This Week,” about the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which Pence says is meant to pre­vent the gov­ern­ment from imping­ing on a person’s reli­gious beliefs. “I was proud to sign it into law.”

SO WHAT EXACTLY IS THE RELIGIOUS FREEDOM ACT?
In brief this is what the Act is.
The new law will pro­hib­it a gov­ern­men­tal enti­ty from sub­stan­tial­ly bur­den­ing a person’s reli­gious beliefs, unless that enti­ty can prove it’s rely­ing on the least restric­tive means pos­si­ble to fur­ther a com­pelling gov­ern­men­tal inter­est. It’s mod­eled off of the fed­er­al Religious Freedom Restoration Act (RFRA), which gained noto­ri­ety in the Supreme Court’s con­tro­ver­sial Hobby Lobby rul­ing last year. That deci­sion found that close­ly-held cor­po­ra­tions wouldn’t have to com­ply with the Affordable Care Act’s con­tra­cep­tion man­date if the own­ers had a sin­cere­ly-held reli­gious objec­tion to birth con­trol.NBCNEWS.
Supporters say RFRA is designed to pro­tect people’s reli­gious beliefs from unnec­es­sary gov­ern­ment intrusion.
Opponents argue the mea­sure serves as a license to dis­crim­i­nate, par­tic­u­lar­ly against LGBT peo­ple on reli­gious grounds.
There is prece­dent which sup­ports both sides of the divide.
Until the Federal Government stepped in and changed sep­a­rate but equal, it was the law of the land. 

Blacks drank at sep­a­rate drink­ing foun­tains, ate at the back of the restau­rant, if at all, and rode at the back of the bus.
Conversely with the break-neck pace with which the gay agen­da has tak­en cen­ter stage, peo­ple opposed to the gay lifestyle find them­selves at odds with the laws in some states as well as in the court of pop­u­lar opinion.

Feb.4^th 2015:  An Oregon bak­ery will have to pay a gay cou­ple up to $150,000 for refus­ing to bake them a wed­ding cake two years ago, gov­ern­ment offi­cials announced Monday. The Sweet Cakes by Melissa bak­ery in Gresham caught heat in January 2013 when Laurel Bowman said the shop refused to make a cake for her and her fiancée, cit­ing reli­gious objec­tions. Bowman said the co-own­er, Aaron Klein, called the gay mar­riage “an abom­i­na­tion unto the lord,” KGW report­ed. Bowman filed a dis­crim­i­na­tion com­plaint with the Oregon Bureau of Labor and Industries months lat­er, and the group said on Monday it was rul­ing against the bak​ery​.Now the bak­ers could pay up to $75,000 each to Bowman and her fiancée, with the final amount to be deter­mined in March. The Bureau of Labor said in a state­ment that it pro­vides some exemp­tions in such cas­es for reli­gious groups, but the bak­ery didn’t count as one just because of its own­ers’ beliefs.http://www.nydailynews.com/news/national/oregon-bakery-pay-gay-couple-refused-cake-article‑1.2103577

But Pence push­es back against the accu­sa­tion that the reli­gious free­dom mea­sure would open the door to discrimination.“This bill is not about dis­crim­i­na­tion, and if I thought it legal­ized dis­crim­i­na­tion in any way in Indiana, I would have vetoed it,” he said. “In fact, it does not even apply to dis­putes between pri­vate par­ties unless gov­ern­ment action is involved. For more than twen­ty years, the fed­er­al Religious Freedom Restoration Act has nev­er under­mined our nation’s anti-dis­crim­i­na­tion laws, and it will not in Indiana.”
On this part of the state­ment Pence is cor­rect,” it does not even apply to dis­putes between pri­vate par­ties unless gov­ern­ment action is involved”
The Federal statute does not yet penal­ize pri­vate par­ties, what the Governor is say­ing is that as a busi­ness own­er I can refuse ser­vice to some­one if I chose to. As along as I do not tell the cus­tomer it’ is because of his/​her spe­cial cir­cum­stance , race, reli­gion, sex­u­al ori­en­ta­tion, col­or or oth­er defin­ing char­ac­ter­is­tics why I refused him/​her service.
Unfortunately, it is peo­ple who have stood on their reli­gious prin­ci­ple who are being per­se­cut­ed and pros­e­cut­ed on behalf of the LGBT com­mu­ni­ty as the Oregon cou­ple has been.

The issue of Discrimination in this con­text seem to need redefining.
Each per­son is guar­an­teed cer­tain free­doms under the con­sti­tu­tion, that includes gays and les­bians. But does that mean that their rights are guar­an­teed at the expense of mine?
Seem so, if the Oregon case is any­thing to go by.
In the Oregon case the Government threw out any con­sid­er­a­tion for the bak­ers right not to work for peo­ple who engage in a lifestyle they abhor, and sup­plant­ed them with the rights of the plaintiff.

So who is right?
A Minister of the Gospel (who is not a char­la­tan sold out to the dic­tates of the world) who decides on prin­ci­ple “I will not mar­ry a LGBT cou­ple”, what then does the state do, fine him, imprison him or worse”?
Isn’t that Religious per­se­cu­tion? The very rea­son we are told the pil­grims ran away from England.
Isn’t that dis­crim­i­na­tion against his fun­da­men­tal reli­gious belief?
It absolute­ly is, yet it appears that is the way this issue is heading.
 Brooke Tucker, staff attor­ney at the ACLU of Michigan, told msnbc last December. “For the land­lord who vio­lates the Fair Housing Act, a lot of times it’s the gov­ern­ment who goes after him. The gov­ern­ment takes a lot of steps to pro­tect peo­ple from dis­crim­i­na­tion by oth­ers, and that’s some­thing that could be severe­ly impact­ed by this bill.”
All of this is true, but this was not the case with Oregon’s sweet-cakes by Melissa. That com­pa­ny was a small busi­ness, owned by two small business-owners .
Why did the Government step in and tram­ple on their right not to pro­vide ser­vice to the gay cou­ple as is their reli­gious belief?

The LGBT com­mu­ni­ty and it’s sup­port­ers have man­aged to effec­tive­ly tie their cru­sade for legit­i­ma­cy to the civ­il rights struggle.
Nothing is wrong with any group demand­ing to be treat­ed fair­ly. What is objec­tion­able is when oth­ers are forced to acqui­esce to the dic­tates of such groups, or are made pari­ahs for dissenting.
Isn’t the gay com­mu­ni­ty more than guilty of the same dis­crim­i­na­tion and char­ac­ter assas­si­na­tion it claims it is exposed to?
They argue they have no con­trol over who they love.
Many in the evan­gel­i­cal com­mu­ni­ty , par­tic­u­lar­ly many black church­es are offend­ed that gays and les­bians have hitched their wag­ons to the civ­il rights struggle.
LGBT prac­ti­tion­ers, their sup­port­ers and oth­ers who want to gain recog­ni­tion, accep­tance and fame from this cause, have effec­tive­ly dis­tort­ed, and in some cas­es negat­ed the hun­dreds of years of injus­tice done to blacks in America.
Even so, some reports have indi­cat­ed there is a grow­ing accep­tance of the gay lifestyle even with­in the black church. Those reports may well be from gays with­in the church.
Others believe that the church has com­pro­mised it’s prin­ci­ples in order to get along, as well as not to incur the wrath of the LGBT com­mu­ni­ty, which may result in the church los­ing it’s tax-exempt status.
Either way, the church has capit­u­lat­ed to the dis­tor­tion that the two issues are intrin­si­cal­ly the same.

Even as gay pro­po­nents argue they have no choice regard­ing their sex­u­al­i­ty, many with­in that com­mu­ni­ty are active­ly using sci­ence to alter and change their gender.
One can­not change one’s race.
Racial seg­re­ga­tion has many ille­git­i­mate chil­dren in America , this issue being one of them.
Was there no issue of racial seg­re­ga­tion and the abhor­rent ills asso­ci­at­ed with that prac­tice, this debate would have been moot.
In fact it may not have exist­ed at all.
Indiana’s Governor Mike Pence and oth­er con­ser­v­a­tives would have legs to stand on when they make the argu­ments about peo­ple’s fun­da­men­tal rights to stand on their reli­gious principles.
But we have seen the ugly side of dis­crim­i­na­tion, as such, a large cross sec­tion of the coun­try made up of peo­ple with dif­fer­ent pecu­liar­i­ties are unit­ed in oppo­si­tion to Indiana’s Religious Freedom Restoration Act.
As a chris­t­ian who love Homosexuals and all peo­ple, I believe we have all sinned and come short of the glo­ry of God.
The church has a respon­si­bil­i­ty to wel­come all peo­ple, as Christ Jesus the head of the Christian church did.
I have to fol­low the teach­ings of Christ which instruct me to love the sin­ner but hate sin. Therefore it is un-Christ-like to preach/​teach that you may come as a sin­ner and remain thus.

The real ques­tion is whether any­one act­ing in a pri­vate capac­i­ty have the right to say,” as a result of my reli­gious beliefs I have to decline serv­ing you”. It is a thorny ques­tion which requires seri­ous soul searching.
As a black chris­t­ian that may very well be my belief, do I sup­port pas­tors who mar­ry gays against bib­li­cal teachings?
No !!!
When con­flat­ed how­ev­er with race, does a white per­son have a right to refuse me ser­vice in his/​her busi­ness establishment?
I would cry discrimination!!!
So where is the line drawn? Who decide where it stops?
Can we even remove Government from this issue with­out slid­ing back into seg­re­gat­ed drink­ing foun­tains and seg­re­gat­ed restau­rants, hotels, schools and buses.

There needs to be seri­ous dis­course on this sub­ject. We should nev­er allow our­selves to go back to seg­re­ga­tion and wan­ton dis­crim­i­na­tion, yet we must guard against impos­ing on the indi­vid­u­al’s right of dis­sent. The right to say “no I do not want to be forced to bake you a cake”, or “no I do not want to mar­ry you , it is against my reli­gion to do so”.
Those rights are sacro­sanct and should nev­er be open to inter­pre­ta­tion by any gov­ern­ment. Those rights are inalien­able rights giv­en us by God Almighty , not to be tri­fled with by government.

In just over a month ‚vot­ers in Richmond coun­ty Staten Island will go to the polls to elect a new rep­re­sen­ta­tive for New York’s 11^th con­gres­sion­al district.
This will be a spe­cial elec­tion to replace dis­graced felon and for­mer Republican Michael Grimm who has plead guilty to a Federal Indictment and awaits sentencing.
Despite being under Federal indict­ment Staten Islanders re-elect­ed Grimm before he was forced to step aside.
Residents of Staten Island are large­ly white and conservative.
The bor­ough is home to a huge num­ber of New York City’s Firefighters and cops.
Staten Island is heav­i­ly repub­li­can and is now derid­ed as the deep south of New York City.

The two men com­pet­ing for the seat once held by Grimm are, Republican Persecutor Daniel Donovan Jr who mis/​handled the Eric Garner case depend­ing on your per­spec­tive, and Democrat Vincent Gentile, a for­mer pros­e­cu­tor him­self and a local leg­is­la­tor. The spe­cial elec­tion is sched­uled for May 5.

In a shock­ing dis­play of pol­i­tics with­ing the crim­i­nal jus­tice sys­tem a Staten Island Judge denied the release of sealed records in the grand jury inves­ti­ga­tion of Garner’s death. This can only be con­strued to be an attempt by the judge to use his office to aid the Republican in secur­ing the seat.

Those famil­iar with the chok­ing death of Eric Garner by rogue cop Daniel Pantaleo will recall inter­est­ed par­ties want­ed no part of Donavan han­dling the case. The Garner fam­i­ly and black activists argued Donovan was par­tial and undu­ly def­er­en­tial to cops.
Donovan’s father was a cop who alleged­ly lost his life to a black assailant.
In his defense Donovan has claimed the loss of his father has not influ­enced his abil­i­ty to be fair.
Those who have seen his career are adamant that he is deeply in the pock­ets of cops and has no inter­est in jus­tice for the black community.

No one knows what is said in grand jury pro­ceed­ings except the peo­ple who are active play­ers in the process.
If Donovan was telling the truth that he would han­dle the case as he would any oth­er, why are they col­lud­ing to hide the facts of that grand jury?
Doesn’t the peo­ple of New York have a right to know?
Doesn’t the Garner fam­i­ly have a right to know that their ser­vant, the pros­e­cu­tor Daniel Donovan did due dili­gence in try­ing to secure jus­tice for them?
Or is it fair to con­clude that Donovan did not do dil­li­gence at all?
Did Donovan seek jus­tice for the Garner fam­i­ly or was he the lawyer ensur­ing that Daniel Pantaleo did not have to answer to crim­i­nal charges for chok­ing the life out of Eric Garner.

There is no ambi­gu­i­ty in this event. Donovan used the peo­ple’s office the way Southern cops, pros­e­cu­tors and judges have against black peo­ple for hun­dreds of years.
What hap­pened on Staten Island should out­rage every­one includ­ing the state Governor.
However it does­n’t, because the Governor of the state is a self serv­ing oppor­tunist whose only care is for his own survival.
Shockingly, what hap­pened to Eric Garner and the Garner fam­i­ly was once though only hap­pened in the deep south.
Interestingly that same crim­i­nal col­lu­sion between cop, pros­e­cu­tor, jurors and judge just hap­pened on the south­ern tip of New York State and no one cares.
So while the white Republican vot­ers of the deep south of New York had their goons kill Eric Garner for alleged­ly sell­ing un-taxed cig­a­rettes, they were quite com­fort­able at the same time with re-elect­ing a com­mon felon to congress.
Additionally their pros­e­cu­tor short-cir­cuit­ed the process to get a killer cop off the hook, while a friend­ly judge uses the pow­er of his office to seal the records, effec­tive­ly ensur­ing his immoral and uneth­i­cal actions does not affect his abil­i­ty to get elect­ed to the US congress..
“Welcome to America”.

I can­not recall an instance when an American Administration would be engaged in del­i­cate talks on the world stage while the Congress is doing every­thing in it’s pow­er to derail and scut­tle the out­come of those negotiations.
I will defer to con­sti­tu­tion­al experts and his­to­ri­ans on this however.
As Secretary of Sate John Kerry and oth­er west­ern nations engages in del­i­cate nego­ti­a­tions with Iran sur­round­ing what the west says is Iran’s dri­ve to be a nuclear pow­er, the United States Republican led con­gress is active­ly arrayed against the Administration on the specifics of a deal which has not even been worked out yet.
This means Republicans do not want a deal with Iran. To dri­ve that point home they have threat­ened to attach more crip­pling sanc­tions to those already in effect against the Islamic Republic.
It is not out of the ordi­nary that the con­gress of one par­ty finds itself at odds with the admin­is­tra­tion of the oth­er par­ty which con­trols the exec­u­tive branch.
What is unprece­dent­ed is that the speak­er of the House John Boehner is work­ing hand in hand with Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu to scut­tle a deal being nego­ti­at­ed by the United States and oth­er pow­er­ful west­ern allies.

This means the Republican con­gress has cast it’s lot with a for­eign pow­er against it’s own country.
Having Netanyahu address Congress is not out of the ordinary.
Having Netanyahu address con­gress in oppo­si­tion to the President’s agen­da is unprecedented.
Sending a let­ter to Iran to tell author­i­ties there that what­ev­er deal they arrive at will be struck down as soon as the pres­i­dent leaves office is trea­so­nous to some.

Despite those mis-steps the Republican con­gress is active­ly engaged in sub­vert­ing a deal with Iran, on behalf of Israel.
The United States of America has one com­man­der ‑in-chief at a time.
It is the Executive branch’s duty to nego­ti­ate agree­ments such as they one it is engaged in with Iran.
Congress also have a role to play in rat­i­fy­ing some agreements.
Trying to sub­vert an agree­ment even before one is reached is vir­gin territory.
Trying to do so on behalf of a for­eign pow­er is … well you decide.…
Netanyahu does not want peace with Israel’s neigh­bors. Israel is nei­ther a democ­ra­cy nor a real American ally. Despite the lies being told about Israels com­mit­ment to main­tain­ing it’s sup­posed close rela­tion­ship with America.
Israel’s com­mit­ment is based on the bil­lions of American dol­lars which flows to it annually.
Israel’s com­mit­ment is based on America’s con­tin­ued obsti­na­cy in block­ing United Nations action which would pun­ish it for war crimes and crimes against humanity.
It’s a con­ve­nient arrange­ment which ben­e­fits Israeli’s and no one else.

Netanyahu con­tin­ue to use the argu­ment that Iran wants to wipe Israel off the map. What he does­n’t tell the world is that those com­ments came from Mahmoud Ahmadinejad the for­mer pres­i­dent of Iran.

The Iranians have con­sis­tent­ly main­tained they have no inten­tion of start­ing a war with Israel, or any­one else for that matter.
They have con­sis­tent­ly point­ed to the fact that it is the nuclear-armed Israel which has been engaged in naked aggres­sion against it’s neigh­bors and not them.
It must be con­strued that Netanyahu does not want peace but ulti­mate­ly wants to see America engaged in an ille­gal war with the Iranian people.
Netanyahu’s aims is to see a neu­tral­ized Iran. Neutralized with America’s mil­i­tary might, blood and money.
A dec­i­mat­ed Iran gives Israel the hege­mon­ic dom­i­nance it craves in the region. This is not a new con­cept for Israel. Since the rise of the Islamic Republic out of the ash­es and con­trol of the cor­rupt Sha an America pawn, Israel’s lead­ers from Ariel Sharon to Benjamin Netanyahu want­ed Iran dec­i­mat­ed and emas­cu­lat­ed. Israel has been forced to reck­on with Hezbollah and Hamas which they allege are fund­ed and trained by Iran. Remove Iran from the equa­tion and the pow­er of Hezbollah and Hamas goes.

Israel is free to con­tin­ue it’s occu­pa­tion and dom­i­na­tion of the Palestinians while it takes more and more of their land.
That is the rea­son Benjamin Netanyahu wants to use Republicans to kill any poten­tial deal with Iran, regard­less of what’s in the deal.
What he wants is blan­ket bomb­ing or crip­pling sanc­tions which destroys Iran.
Only America has the pow­er to do one or both.
Obama will do neither.
A deal is bad for Israel on both counts, that is why he is using the Republican con­gress to try to kill any deal, regard­less of whats in the deal.

In light of the recent crash of a German-Wings air­plane alleged­ly by the Co-Pilot in the French Alps, there is increased talk about plac­ing a Flight atten­dant in the cock­pit in the event one of the Pilots needs to leave for any reason.
I’m just a lit­tle curi­ous about that strategy>
(1)How exact­ly will a flight atten­dant stop a trained pilot from crash­ing an air­plane if he/​she choos­es to?
(2) If the pilot decides to crash the air­plane and places the plane in a nose-dive how will any­one stop that action? yes there would be a strug­gle if the atten­dant real­izes it. Considering that atten­dants are not trained pilots and would not read­i­ly know the nuances of flight pat­terns, includ­ing change of alti­tude as the one in the Alps which Authorities said was a con­trolled descent.
(3) Even if you over­come the lat­ter , you are still deal­ing with anoth­er human being with human emo­tions, so you have just mul­ti­plied the prob­lem instead of solv­ing it.

It was­n’t long ago the idea of locked cock­pit was front and cen­ter as the solu­tion to the prob­lem of pas­sen­gers broach­ing the cock­pit after September 11^th, 2001.
One expert pilot on CNN admit­ted that the Industry did not fore­see this becom­ing an issue., the ques­tion of the per­son in the cock­pit being the per­son to fear,.
Of course they did not see this becom­ing an issue, this is symp­to­matic of how they go about arriv­ing at solu­tions to prob­lems, they react in knee-jerk fashion.

The human ele­ment is always going to present uncer­tain­ty issues, so too will the ques­tion now being debat­ed of hav­ing peo­ple on the ground take over land­ing an air­craft in the event there is an issue of the kind which occurred in the French Alps.
Of course that too will have a mag­ni­tude of issues which could neg­a­tive­ly impact pas­sen­ger safe­ty, includ­ing the men­tal state of the person/​s so autho­rized to com­man­deer the air­craft from the ground.
The fact is that like every­thing else , air trav­el has uncer­tain­ty. Authorities can do their lev­el best to fix prob­lem as they occur, or try to head them off by con­tin­ued evaluation.
Despite this, fix­ing one prob­lem inad­ver­tent­ly cre­ates others.
Like every­thing else, the air­line indus­try will con­tin­ue to use the whack-a-mole-con­cept of smack­ing prob­lems as they pop up.
Nothing is infal­li­ble, unless we can get into the brain space of all actors and stay there, prob­lems like these are here to stay.
Why do I have a feel­ing we are head­ing into ter­ri­to­ry where they con­trol the mind of not just pilots ‚but every­one who boards an airplane?
Hmmm.….

Members of the par­lia­men­tary oppo­si­tion JLP are sched­uled to meet on Monday to deter­mine the fate of Opposition Leader Andrew Holness.
At issue is the Constitutional Court’s rul­ing last month that Holness act­ed uncon­sti­tu­tion­al­ly when he used undat­ed, unsigned res­ig­na­tion let­ters to oust Tufton and Williams from the Senate.
The Gleaner reports sev­er­al heat­ed meet­ings have been con­vened with a view to deter­min­ing Holiness’s fate.

Sounds like deja-vu?
Well it is.
At a time when the small nation of 2.8 mil­lion is in a eco­nom­ic nose-dive, it appears that the Jamaica Labor Party has once again allowed self­ish­ness, per­son­al jeal­ousies and pet­ti­ness to get in the way of offer­ing the coun­try a cohe­sive and unit­ed par­ty as an alter­na­tive to the office-worn, out of ideas, klep­to­ma­ni­ac PNP which now forms the Government.
Over the last three decades many observers have argued that the rea­son the Jamaican elec­torate have con­sis­tent­ly cho­sen the PNP to form the Government is because the JLP has not been able to com­mu­ni­cate with the aver­age man on the street.
That the­o­ry seem to be at odds with what tru­ly ails the par­ty of Bustamante.
The par­ty just seem unable to get out of it’s own way.

Many Jamaicans want to see a change from the cor­rup­tion and graft which char­ac­ter­ize the coun­try’s Political Administration under Prime Minister Portia Simpson Miller and her band of thieves.
Many of us feel a kind of empa­thy for her know­ing she had great­ness thrust upon her.
The prob­lem is that many who want to see a bet­ter Jamaica can­not cast a vote toward that end.
It is up to the vot­ers liv­ing on the Island to chose their leaders.
Unfortunately for them the JLP seem hell-bent on once again giv­ing them a choice between the PNP and well.….….…..the PNP.

More than enough vot­ers are con­tent to return the PNP to pow­er, rather than try to fig­ure out the mess which seem to be the JLP.

Once again new infor­ma­tion has crept to the fore of Criminal cops bru­tal­iz­ing and ter­ror­iz­ing citizens.
Floyd Dent a 57 year old Detroit native was pulled over because he was sup­pos­ed­ly in a known drug zone.
Cops pulled Dent over under the guise that he rolled through a stop sign ‚pulled him from his Cadillac at gun­point, threw him to the pave­ment and placed him in a choke-hold. Police in a shock­ing­ly famil­iar scene caught on dash­board cam­era video. An offi­cer put Floyd Dent, 57, in a choke-hold with one arm and began throw­ing right-hand­ed hay-mak­ers to the man’s head. Video shows the full, vicious assault: 16 blows to the head and a kick to the arm, and anoth­er offi­cer shock­ing Dent with a stun gun three times.
Cops lied that dent was try­ing to flee but it appeared they for­got about their own dash-cam video which proved no such thing hap­pened. des­per­ate­ly seek­ing to jus­ti­fy their unwar­rant­ed on the 57 year old man, they lied that he said “I will kill you as they dragged him from his car”. Of course there was no evi­dence of that as they had turned of their microphones.
They arrest­ed Dent on a slew of charges, includ­ing dri­ving with sus­pend­ed license and pos­ses­sion of crack cocaine they allege was found in the car, accord­ing to Click On Detroit. Dent has no crim­i­nal past and a blood test at the hos­pi­tal revealed no drugs or alco­hol in his sys­tem. State police told Dent’s attor­ney this week they were inves­ti­gat­ing the inci­dent. William Melendez, the Inkster, Mich., offi­cer who placed Dent in the choke­hold, was accused of mis­con­duct as a Detroit police offi­cer in 2004 as part of a group of cops acquit­ted in a fed­er­al tri­al for civ­il rights abus­es, the Detroit Free Press report­ed. A judge dis­missed all but the drug charge against Dent, who faces an April 1 court date. He refused a plea deal for pro­ba­tion, his attor­ney said.“
Mister Dent Dent has no crim­i­nal past and a blood test at the hos­pi­tal revealed no drugs or alco­hol in his system.

THE OUTRAGE

There is no nation­al media atten­tion on this issue!
Once again we see the issue of brazen, unpro­voked police aggres­sion being unleashed against mem­bers of the black community.
Which begs the ques­tion, when are peo­ple going to fight back against these crim­i­nal cops?
On these pages we have repeat­ed­ly asked, why isn’t it a felony for cops to turn off micro­phones or oth­er­wise tam­per with devices which may be need­ed for evidence?
More impor­tant­ly why are cops not pros­e­cut­ed to the full extent of the law when they plant evi­dence, and fal­si­fy reports?
Why are cops allowed to keep their jobs when they com­mit crimes against cit­i­zens, or worse, case allowed to qui­et­ly move to dif­fer­ent depart­ments to car­ry out their sadis­tic pow­er trips on citizens?
Why would Prosecutors offer mis­ter Dent a plea deal on the drug charge know­ing their police wit­ness­es were clear­ly caught try­ing to frame mis­ter Dent? 
Why is it more impor­tant to snag mis­ter Dent into the crim­i­nal jus­tice sys­tem with a fraud­u­lent guilty plea than to aggres­sive­ly pros­e­cute the cops who obvi­ous­ly plant­ed evi­dence, bru­tal­ly assault­ed him and fal­si­fied reports to jus­ti­fy their actions? 

How much longer is this coun­try going to pre­tend that the seri­ous issue of police abuse, par­tic­u­lar­ly black cit­i­zens are iso­lat­ed events, or worse, does not war­rant seri­ous action?
Every inci­dent of police mis­con­duct which goes unpun­ished tells cit­i­zens that is how soci­ety wants it to be.
The stark real­i­ty is that much of the abuse police dish out to black cit­i­zens is done based on their racist mis­con­cep­tions of Black Americans.
Lets not fool our­selves Racism is deeply insti­tu­tion­al­ized and endem­ic in American society. 
There are won­der­ful police offi­cers just as there are won­der­ful doc­tors nurs­es and fire­men, but there are also a dan­ger­ous cadre of racist igno­ra­mus­es who are wear­ing police uni­forms and are seri­ous­ly abus­ing cit­i­zens , fal­si­fy­ing evi­dence to gain con­vic­tions and killing peo­ple they hate.

These cow­ard­ly punks get away with it because of America’s love affair with cops and law-enforcement.
The prob­lem for black cit­i­zens is that the love affair with cops walks hand in hand with the hatred many har­bor for us.
Never mind that if any­one had the right to be hate­ful and mad it would cer­tain­ly be us for what has been done and what is still being done to our people.
How do you defend against those hid­ing behind a badge? 
The tragedy for good cops is that when the rage boils over their is no dif­fer­en­ti­a­tion, a cop is a cop.
We have seen it hap­pen before.
Those who sup­port cops regard­less of the atroc­i­ties they com­mit are not law abid­ing intel­li­gent citizens.
Intelligent cit­i­zens are aware that when cops com­mit crimes and gets away with it, it erodes the respect cit­i­zens have for the rule of law.
They are aware it places the lives of all cops in jeopardy. 
You do not sup­port crim­i­nal cops in their abuse of cit­i­zens because you care about the well being of cops.

You do so because they car­ry out a sick sadis­tic desire you har­bor to inflict pain and death on those you hate. 

Linden New Jersey cop Pedro Abad Jr. has had sev­er­al run-ins with the law which would have land­ed any ordi­nary per­son in seri­ous trou­ble includ­ing jail time, was behind the wheel dri­ving the wrong way on a Staten Island street after leav­ing a strip-club, obvi­ous­ly drunk.
As a result he crashed head-on into a trac­tor trail­er Killing one of his col­leagues crit­i­cal­ly injur­ing two oth­ers and him­self and also injur­ing the trac­tor trail­er driver.
Here’s whats shocking.

Pedro Abad Jr., Linden police offi­cer, swerved off the road in a black 2010 Audi A5 and hit a bus stop sign, a street sign and a stop sign before slam­ming through the side of New Way Supermarket in Roselle, N.J., at 3:46 a.m. on Jan. 22, 2011, accord­ing to a police report.

It took three months for all the dam­age to be fixed and the dam­age was so exten­sive the store was closed for the first three weeks of repairs. “Everything was messed up,” Patel said. “The reg­is­ter was on the ground, every­thing. The door doesn’t even shut still because of the crash.” Reeking of alco­hol, Abad, 27, was rushed from the scene to University Hospital in Newark, where he was charged with dri­ving while intox­i­cat­ed and care­less dri­ving. Inside the ambu­lance he admit­ted to hav­ing two mixed drinks at a local club, accord­ing to the police report.

Abad also received vio­la­tions for drunk­en dri­ving and refus­ing a Breathalyzer test on Feb. 26, 2013, after he crashed in Rahway, N.J., New Jersey Motor Vehicle Commission records show. During that inci­dent, Abad was caught on cam­era stum­bling and slur­ring his words while ask­ing for an offi­cer he said he knew from the acad­e­my, NJ​.com report­ed. His license was sus­pend­ed for sev­en months in the wake of the Rahway crash, records show. In addi­tion to the two drink­ing-relat­ed crash­es, Abad was involved in six oth­er acci­dents going back to 2005, state records show.

Yet Pedro Abad Jr. the police offi­cer was still allowed to be dri­ving an automobile.
Why was this young man allowed to be driving ?
Why is he even still a cop after all those infractions?
Why is it such a hush , hush about whether he was drunk on the morn­ing of his lat­est crash?
Would it have tak­en this long to arrest the dri­ver of the trac­tor trail­er if he was dri­ving drunk the wrong way, seri­ous­ly injur­ing and killing cops?
I believe we all know the answer to these questions.
Condolences would be pour­ing in from all across the coun­try, the Media would have looped the sto­ry end­less­ly and there would have been a pro­ces­sion of cops parad­ing by to show sup­port for their fall­en com­rades killed by the drunk driver.
Of course the Media would have found all kinds of experts will­ing to offer up all kinds of advice on what the penal­ty should be for the driver.
Why is this case different?
Where is the outrage?
What hypocrisy?

Starbucks CEO Howard Schultz no shrink­ing Violet when it comes to tack­ling tough sub­jects, once again braved the heat by ask­ing his com­pa­ny’s baris­tas to broach the sub­ject of race with customers.
The ini­tial part of the cam­paign was that baris­tas write the words “race togeth­er” on cof­fee cups as they serve customers.
That part of the cam­paign end­ed March 22^nd . Shultz insists that neg­a­tive back­lash is not behind the ter­mi­na­tion of that effort. The cup writ­ing part “was always just the cat­a­lyst for a much broad­er and longer term con­ver­sa­tion” about racial inequal­i­ty and diver­si­ty, he said.

The response to race togeth­er has been mixed includ­ing some harsh back­lash on social media, includ­ing threats against some exec­u­tives of Starbucks.
Hold that thought though.….
I am not sure whether surly half-awake peo­ple head­ing to work with­out their first bit of morn­ing pick-you-upper are ready to broach the tedious and thorny sub­ject of race.
Notwithstanding, I com­mend Howard Schultz for dar­ing to want to fix the can­cer­ous prob­lem of race in America.
Speaking to CNN Schultz said “If we all con­tin­ue to be bystanders on some­thing that’s divid­ing the nation, then where is this head­ed? We are bet­ter than this as a coun­try,”.
I agree that if we con­tin­ue to be bystanders on some­thing that’s divid­ing the nation we are head­ing , well, nowhere..
Not sure I agree America is bet­ter than this !
In fact America has shown it is not bet­ter than this.
How could America claim to be bet­ter than this in the year 2015 when there are racial divi­sions so deep and divi­sive that peo­ple are threat­ened with death for dar­ing to speak out and want­i­ng change?

How is America bet­ter than this when peo­ple are being killed by police because of the col­or of their skin?
I hear a lot of talk about the need for a nation­al con­ver­sa­tion on race.
This argu­ment has been at the fore-front of ever instance where race is present in an issue.
We hear it from the President down to every talk­ing-head on Television.
I’m not quite sure how that would occur? How is a nation­al con­ver­sa­tion on race ini­ti­at­ed? How is it executed?.
For the most part African Americans are par­tic­u­lar­ly enthused about such a conversation.
Black lead­ers have nev­er seen a con­fer­ence they did not like.
Give our peo­ple the oppor­tu­ni­ty to dress up and attend a con­fer­ence and they are in” hogs-heav­en”.
The only prob­lem is that after they attend these dress-up talk fests noth­ing ever change.
They go back to their deprived com­mu­ni­ties where things remain just the way they have always been.

Me ? I was nev­er one for all of that non­sen­si­cal talk, I guess it’s my Jeans T‑shirt and boots men­tal­i­ty , just do it like Nike says.
So lets quick­ly exam­ine some sim­ple facts sur­round­ing racism in America.
There is no rea­son to beat around the bush and pre­tend. You can­not fix what you do not iden­ti­fy, so lets iden­ti­fy the problem.
(1) WHITES STARTED RACISM IN AMERICA.
Whites start­ed racist dis­crim­i­na­to­ry prac­tices in America, they can end it when they chose.
This prac­tice pre-dates slav­ery. The prac­tice of white supe­ri­or­i­ty was what caused European set­tlers (most­ly prison inmates) to almost dec­i­mate the native American population.
It was that men­tal­i­ty which cre­at­ed the slave trade and the pogrom unleashed on African peo­ple both on the moth­er­land and those uproot­ed and trans­plant­ed here in the west­ern hemisphere.
It was white igno­rance, and grandiose ideas of racial supe­ri­or­i­ty which cost untold mil­lions of lives in the mid­dle pas­sage and here in the land of bondage.
It was whites who ini­ti­at­ed this car­nage on not only blacks, but all of the native peo­ple they found, not just here in the Americas but as far away as Australia, New Zealand and India.

(2) WHITES CAN END IT.
Whites can end the igno­ble prac­tice which teach­es and places one race above anoth­er, yet in far too many house­hold chil­dren are taught that they are supe­ri­or to others.
It is not acci­den­tal that many com­mu­ni­ties, towns, coun­ties and states are still rabid­ly dis­crim­i­na­to­ry to some peo­ple based on race.
Where do the chil­dren learn these behav­ior patterns?
They learn them from their par­ents, they learn them from their friends whose par­ents teach their kids to hate.

(3) MANY WHITES DO NOT WANT TO CHANGE.
Many whites under­stand the ben­e­fits of “white priv­i­lege” and they are not about to give it up.
Even those who claim not to be racist do ben­e­fit from white priv­i­lege even though they don’t know it, or may not even ask for it.
Getting a pass on a ticket,or not get­ting pulled over harassed or worse, is white privilege.
Having access to loans because of con­nec­tions is white privilege.
Being spo­ken to with respect by police is white privilege.

Racism per­sist because peo­ple ben­e­fit from it, they are not about to give up the perks because it’s right or moral.
Some say you can’t leg­is­late that peo­ple do away with dis­crim­i­na­to­ry racial atti­tudes and practices.
I dis­agree.
There is leg­is­la­tion for every­thing else, you may not be able to change peo­ple’s heart with leg­is­la­tion but you damn sure can make it expen­sive if they dis­play racist atti­tudes toward others.
Eventually they will get the mes­sage right?
Yeah .…
You see, the rea­son we are still deal­ing with this crap, is that too many who are sup­posed to draft and pass the appro­pri­ate leg­is­la­tion into law are the most vile racist creatures.

I write about the coun­try we know as Israel from time to time in crit­i­cal terms.
The main rea­son I have been crit­i­cal of this 68-year-old state, is that it’s lead­ers, spon­sors, and some of it’s peo­ple claim divine author­i­ty for the estab­lish­ment and exis­tence of that enti­ty, not just in being but it’s geo­graph­i­cal placement.
Having read and seen a tiny bit of the atro­cious heavy-hand­ed­ness and cal­lous dis­re­gard Israel dis­plays for human life, while pur­port­ing to be God’s cho­sen peo­ple, I can­not remain silent.

If the God of Israel is that venge­ful and uncar­ing I do not want any part of that unjust dis­crim­i­na­to­ry God.
Because I know that the God of my chris­t­ian faith , the God of for­give­ness is a just God> I must speak out, not just against the bill of Goods which has been sold the world about this ille­git­i­mate state, but against Ministers of the Christian Gospel here in the west­ern world who con­tin­ue to mis­lead the faith­ful with false teach­ings about God’s demands, as it relates to sup­port for Israel.

“Israeli’s”, The name they call them­selves, are a sig­nif­i­cant­ly dif­fer­ent peo­ple than Jews of the Bible and yes, the Torah.
Scholars and oth­er thinkers won­der how a peo­ple who claim to have their Genesis in the mid­dle East could be exiled to Europe and return as Caucasians?
Did they under­go a change in their skin tone due to the pas­sage of time or, are they just peo­ple who adopt­ed a faith as their own and now claim to be God’s cho­sen people?
Many also won­der whether being a Jew is mere­ly accept­ing the faith which then auto­mat­i­cal­ly makes one God’s cho­sen people,entitled to a prophet­ic home­land, on land occu­pied by oth­ers for thou­sands of years?
If you find your­self ask­ing these ques­tions, you must be pre­pared for a blow-back of epic pro­por­tion which may result in you los­ing your abil­i­ty to work or worse.
No one is sup­posed to ques­tion the authen­tic­i­ty of the bill of goods. Do and you are brand­ed an anti-semite.
The very idea of a Jewish home­land, that which mate­ri­al­ized in the actu­al cre­ation of the so-called Jewish state in 1947, is based sole­ly on reli­gious inter­pre­ta­tion of peo­ple prac­tic­ing the faith.
If I decide to accept Islam as my reli­gion of choice does that give me the right to claim Saudi Arabia as my homeland?
You get my point!
So how does Caucasians prac­tic­ing the Jewish faith claim Palestine as their home­land then force the real indige­nous Jewish peo­ple into con­cen­tra­tion camps? 
I digress though.
You see, most peo­ple here in the west­ern world are unaware that the Zionist state of Israel round up and place African Jews(real jews)into con­cen­tra­tion camps.
The very foun­da­tion on which the state was for­mu­lat­ed is flawed and at best fraudulent.
Christian min­is­ters of the Gospel con­tin­ue to mis­lead con­gre­ga­tions on this sub­ject because they lack intel­lec­tu­al inquisitiveness. 
Others sim­ply do not know so the lead their flock in blind sub­mis­sion to a lie.
You don’t have to take my word for it take a look at what (Neturei Karta) Jews against Zionism has to say.

JUDAISM AND ZIONISM ARE NOT THE SAME THING

We would like to take a few min­utes of your time to pre­vent you from mak­ing a ter­ri­ble mis­take that may have dis­as­trous results for many.

You have always with­out a doubt heard and read much about the polit­i­cal crises in the Middle East in which the State of Israel plays a cen­tral role. This is, in fact, an ongo­ing series of crises with poten­tial to bring the great­est mis­for­tune on the entire world. Tragically many believe that Zionism and Judaism are iden­ti­cal. Thus they con­clude that the entire Jewish peo­ple is respon­si­ble for the actions of the Zionist gov­ern­ment and the world crises which emanates from it. This is a Grave Error!

The truth is that the Jewish faith and Zionism are two very dif­fer­ent philoso­phies. They are as oppo­site as day and night. The Jewish peo­ple have exist­ed for thou­sands of years. In their two thou­sand years of Divinely decreed exile no Jew ever sought to end this exile and estab­lish inde­pen­dent polit­i­cal sov­er­eign­ty any­where. The peo­ple’s sole pur­pose was the study and ful­fill­ment of the Divine com­mand­ments of the Torah.

The Zionist move­ment cre­at­ed the Israeli state. The lat­ter is a per­sua­sion less than one hun­dred years old. Its essen­tial goal was and is to change the nature of the Jewish peo­ple from that of a reli­gious enti­ty to a polit­i­cal move­ment. From Zionism’s incep­tion the spir­i­tu­al lead­ers of the Jewish peo­ple stood in staunch oppo­si­tion to it.

To this day Torah Jewry remains for­ev­er loy­al to its faith. Zionists want the world to believe that they are the rep­re­sen­ta­tives of the entire Jewish peo­ple. This is false! The Jewish peo­ple nev­er chose them as their leaders.

The Zionists have deceived many well mean­ing Jewish peo­ple via ter­ror, trick­ery and false pro­pa­gan­da. They have at their dis­pos­al the use of a near­ly uni­ver­sal­ly sub­servient media. Whoever attempts to crit­i­cize them puts his liveli­hood and, at times, his very life in danger.

However, despite the media black­out and easy resort to ter­ror the sim­ple truth remains unre­fut­ed and irrefutable: ACCORDING TO THE JEWISH FAITH AND TORAH LAW THE JEWISH PEOPLE ARE FORBIDDEN TO HAVE THEIR OWN STATE WHILE AWAITING THE MESSIANIC ERA!

The Creator gave us the Holy Land thou­sands of years ago. Yet, when we sinned, He took it away and sent us into exile. Since that time our task is to wait for Him to send the Messiah. At that time, the Creator alone, with­out any human being lift­ing a hand or say­ing a word, will bring us togeth­er and take us out of exile. He will like­wise estab­lish uni­ver­sal peace among all mankind and all will serve Him in good will.

Some reli­gious Jews, con­fused by Zionist pro­pa­gan­da quote Biblical vers­es that state that G‑d gave the chil­dren of Israel the Holy Land. They over­look, unfor­tu­nate­ly, those vers­es which say that He took it away due to our sins. They fur­ther ignore those prophe­cies which explic­it­ly describe the last exile’s con­clu­sion as a Divine, not a human process.

The Creator has com­mand­ed every Jew to fol­low the ways of peace and to be loy­al to the coun­try where he lives.

Torah true Jewry waits patient­ly for the Messianic redemp­tion. They have noth­ing to do with any kind of pseu­do “Jewish State” and its aggres­sions against oth­er peo­ples. They have a deep sym­pa­thy for the plight of the Palestinians who have suf­fered the most from Zionism’s false teach­ings and bar­bar­ic actions. The Zionist state is not a Jewish state. The Zionists alone are the only ones respon­si­ble for their actions. Authentic Jewry has and will con­tin­ue to oppose the very exis­tence of this blas­phe­mous state.

May all mankind wit­ness the true redemp­tion. http://​www​.nkusa​.org/​A​b​o​u​t​U​s​/​Z​i​o​n​i​s​m​/​j​u​d​a​i​s​m​_​i​s​n​o​t​_​z​i​o​n​i​s​m​.​cfm

On the eve of Israeli Elections Benjamin Netanyahu the Likud Prime Minister of the Zionist State of Israel was asked by an inter­view­er with the Israeli news site, NRG, if it was true that a Palestinian nation would nev­er be formed while he’s prime min­is­ter, Netanyahu replied, “Indeed.”

“Anyone who is going to estab­lish a Palestinian state, any­one who is going to evac­u­ate ter­ri­to­ries today, is sim­ply giv­ing a base for attacks to the rad­i­cal Islam against Israel,” he said. “This is the true real­i­ty that was cre­at­ed here in the last few years.”

Netanyahu went on to say that any oppo­nents on the left who might argue oth­er­wise are “stick­ing their head in the sand, time and time again.”
From all indi­ca­tions Benjamin Netanyahu will also be the new Prime Minister of Israel for anoth­er term.

Thursday March 19^th Benjamin Netanyahu told NBC News.
“I don’t want a one-state solution”.
“I don’t want a one-state solu­tion,” Netanyahu told NBC News in his first inter­view with U.S. news orga­ni­za­tions since Tuesday’s hard fought elec­tions, adding that “cir­cum­stances would have to change” first, for there to be a “nego­ti­at­ed peace.”

There are a few issues at play here. Either Netanyahu believes peo­ple have for­got­ten his ear­li­er state­ments giv­en just a cou­ple of days ear­li­er , or he does­n’t care that we know he is a racist liar who respects no one but Israeli’s.
I’m going to go with the lat­ter , hav­ing seen this guy’s Modus-operandi.

That’s not all how­ev­er, Netanyahu’s arro­gance knows no bounds, in answer to his one state pro­nounce­ments on the eve of the elec­tions he lied point blank in anoth­er inter­view giv­en to a dif­fer­ent network.
Quote: “We have to get the Palestinians to go back to the nego­ti­at­ing table, break their pact with Hamas, and accept the idea of a Jewish state. And I think that’s what the inter­na­tion­al com­mu­ni­ty should be focused on,”.
Well there is the cheeky arro­gance. He sets the para­me­ters for what the Palestinians must do before he con­sid­ers, (in his Godly might) their demands for a home of their own in their homeland.

Consider that even if the Palestinians were to allow them­selves to be humil­i­at­ed fur­ther, by acqui­esc­ing to every demand Netanyahu makes , they would not be any clos­er to a home­land than they are today.
A Palestinian home­land can­not be con­tin­gent on the dic­tates of Israel or Palestine for that mat­ter, there has to be a hon­est impar­tial bro­ker both par­ties respect. Israel respects no one.
A true Palestinian state may not be doable in light of all of the bad blood which has foment­ed since 1947.
It is cer­tain­ly not pos­si­ble with Israel telling a sov­er­eign peo­ple who they may asso­ciate with.
It is not pos­si­ble with Israel lay­ing para­me­ters for talks, while con­fis­cat­ing, and annex­ing more and more Palestinian ter­ri­to­ry each day, using them to build more and more set­tle­ments for Israeli Jews.
A Palestinian state is cer­tain­ly not pos­si­ble with the United States of America act­ing as bro­ker while simul­ta­ne­ous­ly being a spon­sor, enabler, and sup­port­er of Israeli dom­i­na­tion and occu­pa­tion of the Palestinian people.

So even if Palestinian lead­ers were to some­how capit­u­late to every demand Israel makes, what guar­an­tee do they have of a homeland?
The sim­ple answer is “none”.
The Palestinians would be stu­pid to sit at the same table with Israel, as long as Israel has at it’s helm, the patho­log­i­cal liar Benjamin Netanyahu.
There is no diplo­mat­ic speak to make this any more palat­able. Netanyahu is a vile despi­ca­ble liar.

Asked by NBC’s Andrea Mitchell whether he was racist in light of com­ments he made just pri­or to the elec­tions, he replied, “I am not” , On the day of the elec­tion, Netanyahu claimed that his gov­ern­ment was being threat­ened by Israeli Arab vot­ers who were turn­ing out for the elec­tion in “huge quan­ti­ties.”
When was vot­er turnout a bad thing?
Do you see the con­nec­tion here between Netanyahu the Senator from Israel and Republicans here in America who fun­da­men­tal­ly believe black and Latino vot­er turnout should be con­trolled and impeded?
Judge for your­self , this is Benjamin Netanyahu speak­ing about African migrant work­ers enter­ing the Jewish state. “They are Infiltrators,“If we don’t stop their entry, the prob­lem that cur­rent­ly stands at 60,000 could grow to 600,000, and that threat­ens our exis­tence as a Jewish and demo­c­ra­t­ic state,”
Not only is Netanyahu a racist he is a xenophobe.
Netanyahu is adamant­ly opposed to African migrant work­ers enter­ing Israel, some of his com­ments were cen­tered around alle­ga­tions that a Jewish woman was raped in a migrant com­mu­ni­ty. Israeli Police said the over­all crime rate in Israel had fall­en. There had been one alleged rape of a teenage girl con­nect­ed to the migrant com­mu­ni­ty, for which three sus­pects were in custody.

Yohanan Danino, the Israeli police chief, said migrants should be per­mit­ted to work to dis­cour­age pet­ty crime. the​guardian​.com reports.

This was not enough to tamp down the vile racism of some of Israel’s leaders.
Interior min­is­ter, Eli Yishai, reject­ed such a move, say­ing: “Why should we pro­vide them with jobs? I’m sick of the bleed­ing hearts, includ­ing politi­cians. Jobs would set­tle them here, they’ll make babies, and that offer will only result in hun­dreds of thou­sands more com­ing over here.” Yishai repeat­ed an ear­li­er call for all migrants to be jailed pend­ing depor­ta­tion. “I want every­one to be able to walk the streets with­out fear or trep­i­da­tion” … The migrants are giv­ing birth to hun­dreds of thou­sands, and the Zionist dream is dying,”.

Israel forcibly removed migrant African work­ers, some of whom were deport­ed to Eritria and Sudan. Others are incar­cer­at­ed in a mam­moth prison in the Negev desert. The facil­i­ty is report­ed to hold rough­ly 11,000 peo­ple and was built at a cost of £58m.
In response to fears of human rights groups and NGO’s about the dan­gers they could face in their home coun­tries once returned Netanyahu said, “I’m not respon­si­ble for what hap­pens in Eritrea and Sudan, the UN is.”
Completely obliv­i­ous and uncon­cerned for the safe­ty of refugees, Netanyahu cold­ly dis­miss­es that concern.
Nevertheless Netanyahu and oth­er Jews nev­er miss an oppor­tu­ni­ty to berate the rest of the world with sto­ries of what Hitler did to them.
Some Israeli’s do have a heart how­ev­er, they argue in the light of Jewish his­to­ry, their state should be sym­pa­thet­ic and wel­com­ing to those flee­ing persecution.

Over the last three decades American Administrations have sup­pos­ed­ly worked to achieve peace in the Middle east. From Carter to Obama.
We can agree that the United States was nev­er a hon­est bro­ker toward that end, as it was the United States and Britain which cre­at­ed the prob­lem in 1947 with the cre­ation of what we have come to know as the state of Israel.
Yesterday , under pres­sure to pre­serve his polit­i­cal via­bil­i­ty on the eve of nation­al elec­tions, Benjamin Netanyahu declared there will be no Palestinian state on his watch.
This bold, yet unequiv­o­cal state­ment flies in the face of what Israel and it’s sup­port­ers claim has been their goal all along. To have a two state solu­tion with the Palestinians.
Netanyahu made liars of all apol­o­gists, who swore over the decades that Israel was com­mit­ted to peace and a two state solu­tion to the decades long conflict.
American Administrations dat­ing back 3 decades have sup­pos­ed­ly worked fever­ish­ly toward what they char­ac­ter­ize as peace between Palestine and the state they created.
Peace was nev­er attain­able under the con­di­tions on the ground, in fact the Americans have main­tained they sup­port­ed Israel unequivocally.
That means regard­less of the atroc­i­ties Israel com­mits, America has pledged it’s unwa­ver­ing sup­port to defend it.
The Palestinians argue they want a state of their own as the land now occu­pied by Israeli’s are Arab lands, their lands.
Since 1947 Palestinians have lived under sub­ju­ga­tion and rigid Israeli dom­i­na­tion. Some observers argue Israel prac­tices a form of apartheid worse than that which exist­ed in South Africa.

I am not sure about the anal­o­gy, hav­ing seen some of the suf­fer­ing of the South African black peo­ple under the bru­tal oppres­sion of the White Apartheid régime which exist­ed there,
On the oth­er hand Palestinians liv­ing in the West Bank and Gaza live and die under incred­i­ble con­di­tions caused by Israeli blockade,occupation and humiliation.

Notwithstanding, Netanyahu’s last ditch des­per­ate con­fes­sion is sur­pris­ing only to dyed in the wool Israeli apologists.
Sure Netanyahu want to hold onto pow­er in Israel’s twist­ed maze of a polit­i­cal sys­tem. In fact even as as I write this Media Houses are report­ing that he has already claimed vic­to­ry , even though the race is sup­pos­ed­ly too close to call.
Now that Netanyahu revealed him­self to be a decep­tive liar to his sup­port­ers the rest of the world which nev­er drank the Israeli kool-aid are vindicated.
Israelis do not want peace with their neigh­bors. If Israel strikes a deal with the Palestinians they will have no more pre­text to keep annex­ing their lands.

We were nev­er fooled by Netanyahu or Israel and it’s sup­port­ers. All it takes is a lit­tle research and an open mind to rec­og­nize that the State of Israel is a land grab­bing cen­ter of trou­ble in the mid­dle east.
No one both­ers to talk about the fact that Israel has scores of Nuclear weapons while sup­port­ers of the Zionist state wants Iran emasculated.
It is not enough that Saddam Hussien is out of the way, Netanyahu wants America to dec­i­mate Iran under the guise that Iran is seek­ing nuclear weapons.
If Israelis are seri­ous about peace why don’t they give up their stock­piles of weapons of mass destruction?
Why don’t they give back the lands they annexed to their right­ful owners ?

These are the ques­tions which intel­li­gent observers must ask , any­thing else is accept­ing with­out chal­lenge man­u­fac­tured Zionist propaganda.
Somehow Israel has made it some kind of crime to crit­i­cize them, or to ques­tion their lies. It is time that the world see this coun­try for what it is, a land-grab­bing war­mon­ger which can­not coex­ist with it’s neighbors.
Netanyahu has to know say­ing there will be no Palestinian state on his watch will be attrac­tive to Jews anx­ious to get their hands on Palestinian lands on the eve of a vote.
That is the rea­son he said it, Obama be damned.
American mon­ey will nev­er dry up, too many pow­er­ful Jews with mon­ey con­trol the politics.

Well just as we have said on so many occa­sions before, Israel’s Benjamin Netanyahu fac­ing defeat and des­per­ate to hold onto pow­er in electeions sched­uled for Tuesday March 17 said, as long as he is Prime Minister there will be no State of Palestine.
Well wow , take a moment to digest that statement.
For years Israel has gob­bled up Palestinian ter­ri­to­ry with unprece­dent­ed rapaciousness.
Many peo­ple have seen it for what it is, a craven land grab, end of story.

American Presidents from Carter to Clinton, to Bush and now Obama has demand­ed that as part of any peace­ful end to the pro­tract­ed Israeli /​Palestinian con­flict, Israel must stop build­ing set­tle­ments on Palestinian lands. Nevertheless none of them did any­thing to stop the Billions of tax-pay­ers dol­lars which pour into Israel annu­al­ly ‚even as Israel thumbs its nose in contempt.
Ariel Sharone once said it was real easy to move America to do its bidding.
Israel argues they need to con­fis­cate more ter­ri­to­ry to place a buffer between them and their enemies.
That entire argu­ment is flawed and unwor­thy of seri­ous dis­cus­sion. Based on that argu­ment Israel would per­pet­u­al­ly need to c take ter­ri­to­ry until Palestinians are forced out of the region all together.

Frustrated with that argu­ment , for­mer President Bill Clinton stat­ed some time ago, Israel should state it does not want a two state solu­tion and live with the con­se­quences. President Carter who worked assid­u­ous­ly to bro­ker peace between the two par­ties, and bro­kered the his­toric 1978 peace treaty between Israel and Egypt have been fac­tu­al­ly forth­right in talk­ing about Israel’s atroc­i­ties against the Palestinian people.

President carter said that the state of Israel is worse than the Apartheid sys­tem which exist­ed in South Africa. Carter out­raged many Jews who are gen­er­al­ly above crit­i­cism with his 2006 book “Palestine: Peace Not Apartheid.
In the Book President Carter said quote:” “The bot­tom line is this: Peace will come to Israel and the Middle East only when the Israeli gov­ern­ment is will­ing to com­ply with inter­na­tion­al law, with the Road-map for Peace, with offi­cial American pol­i­cy, with the wish­es of a major­i­ty of its own cit­i­zens — and hon­or its own pre­vi­ous com­mit­ments — by accept­ing its legal bor­ders,” end quote.…
In response American Jewish Committee head David Harris respond­ed in a col­umn for The Jerusalem Post. “In accept­ing the Palestinian nar­ra­tive, Carter has con­ve­nient­ly revised his­to­ry, excused the Palestinians for their trag­ic fail­ure to come to terms with Israel each time the chance pre­sent­ed itself, and blithe­ly ignored Israel’s very legit­i­mate secu­ri­ty con­cerns,” Harris wrote in 2006. 

“Many Israelis, includ­ing those that once great­ly admired his role in fos­ter­ing peace with Egypt, may nev­er again trust Carter’s diplo­ma­cy, includ­ing his vaunt­ed role as an elec­tion mon­i­tor. He can no longer claim to be an hon­est broker.”

So there you have it they only have use for you when you agree with them.
After the expect­ed fire­wall of protest from Jews and their sup­port­ers, Carter offered up a mea cul­pa of sorts in March of 2010. By the sum­mer of that very year Carter was forced to slam Israel once again in an op-ed piece quote:
“There is no humane or legal jus­ti­fi­ca­tion for the way the Israeli Defense Forces are con­duct­ing this war,” the two for­mer pres­i­dents wrote. “Israeli bombs, mis­siles, and artillery have pul­ver­ized large parts of Gaza, includ­ing thou­sands of homes, schools, and hos­pi­tals. More than 250,000 peo­ple have been dis­placed from their homes in Gaza. Hundreds of Palestinian non­com­bat­ants have been killed. Much of Gaza has lost access to water and elec­tric­i­ty com­plete­ly. This is a human­i­tar­i­an catastrophe.”

Netanyahu’s state­ment came after polls in Israel showed him los­ing ground in elec­tions slat­ed for Tuesday. Some observers have opined that Netanyahu’s address to a joint ses­sion of con­gress in defi­ance of President Obama’s efforts to get a deal with Iran may have backfired.
Running in a tight race against Isaac Herzog, his com­peti­tor from the Zionist Union par­ty. Experts say the race is too close to call.
“I think any­one who is going to estab­lish a Palestinian state and to evac­u­ate ter­ri­to­ry is giv­ing rad­i­cal Islam a stag­ing ground against the State of Israel,” 

On these pages we have con­sis­tent­ly main­tained that the Zionist state is not inter­est­ed in a two state solution.
Peace is not in Israel’s plans, nev­er was. Ariel Sharone and now Benjamin Netanyahu has no inter­est in peace. 
Netanyahu like Sharone, under­stands the sim­plic­i­ty of mak­ing that a real­i­ty, as far as America is concerned.
Continue to set­tle more land, Palestinians respond to the injus­tice, Israel reacts with over­whelm­ing force, there is no consequence.
Of course Israel has no oblig­a­tion to respect International law. Bombing schools, hos­pi­tals and res­i­dences are quite nor­mal. It’s just Palestinian lives at stake.
Their argument?
We need more land to sep­a­rate us from the ter­ror­ist Palestinians ., so they take more and the cycle con­tin­ues . Never mind that it is Israel which has the nuclear weapons and the cut­ting edge weapon­ry, the best in the world, as against the down­trod­den Palestinians throw­ing rocks and blow­ing them­selves up in exasperation.

They do all this withAmerica’s back­ing of course.

I’m cer­tain­ly no fan of the Democratic Party, it is weak ‚It’s unfo­cused and a frac­tious throw-togeth­er of self-serv­ing inter­est groups.
With that said, faced with the unpalat­able prospect of the two polit­i­cal par­ties, right mind­ed peo­ple have to hold their noses and side with the Democrats.
It’s not as if the Democratic par­ty is better,(less bad). It’s just that the Republican Party has den­i­grat­ed to such depths of Racism and is so sold out to the 1% of the wealth­i­est Oligarchs, there is hard­ly any alter­na­tive but to cast one’s lot with the lousy Democrats.

Whether you are a fan of President Obama or not, one has to won­der whether Republicans are mind­ful that what they are doing to him is prece­dent setting?
Republicans want con­trol of the White House.
To them, the Executive branch is the crème-de-la-crème of the three branch­es of Government as long as a Republican is the occupant.
Not so much when Democrats occu­py the Executive Mansion.Then Republicans are hell-bent on using what­ev­er clout they hold between the Legislative and Judicial branch to stymie the effec­tive­ness of whichev­er Democrat is in the white house.

In recent times they did it to Presidents Carter and Clinton, but nei­ther of the two saw the ven­om and hatred which has been direct­ed at Barack Obama.
Of course what Obama faces is more than the idea that no demo­c­rat should occu­py the white house but also over four hun­dred years of raw white supremacy.
They do not believe a black man should ever enter much less occu­py the white house.
Incredibly they have ques­tioned Obama’s com­pe­tence, of course none of the elect­ed ones could cred­i­bly ques­tion his aca­d­e­m­ic qual­i­fi­ca­tions for the job. So they had a polit­i­cal wannabe, the buf­foon Donald Trump do it.
Obama is a Harvard edu­cat­ed con­sti­tu­tion­al lawyer so that did not work.
It did not stop them from ques­tion­ing the place of his birth, to this day they argue he was born in Kenya.
Ironically, dur­ing the 2008 elec­tions between Obama and John McCain, when the birther [sic] issue emerged, no one both­ered to men­tion that John McCain was born on a mil­i­tary base some­where in the Panama Canal zone.
There was no great out­cry dur­ing George Romney’s 1968 bid for the GOP nomination .
There is also silent acqui­es­cence sur­round­ing the divi­sive Ted Cruz’s Presidential ambi­tions, even though he was born in Calgary Canada.
So what is it that gives legit­i­ma­cy to the birther issue as it regards Obama if not race, you decide?

The poi­so­nous McCain has always pre­tend­ed to be a ratio­nal per­son. McCain has been care­ful to pick and chose instances when to appear rea­son­able. For exam­ple dur­ing the 2008 elec­tions when a big­ot­ed old woman told him at an event that she did not trust Obama because he was an Arab who did not belong here. The seem­ing­ly ratio­nal McCain told her then quote”. “No ma’am,[Obama’s] a decent fam­i­ly man, cit­i­zen, that I just hap­pen to have dis­agree­ments with on fun­da­men­tal issues.” Sounds rea­son­able enough right? The truth is, John McCain saw the polls and he knew he would lose that elec­tion. He was in dam­age con­trol mode then.
In fact no one ever accused John McCain of being bright, rather than defend Arab-Americans as decent peo­ple wor­thy of trust, McCain fed into the hatred in the crowd by telling that igno­rant old woman that Obama was not an Arab.
So what if he was Arabic?
Where in the con­sti­tu­tion of the United States does it pre­clude an Arab from run­ning for the Presidency of the United States? I will how­ev­er leave Arabs to defend themselves.
At the time McCain had Arabs like Daryl Issa sup­port­ing him and in some cas­es there were Arabs active­ly cam­paign­ing for him. There have also been Arab-Americans who have giv­en exem­plary ser­vice to this coun­try . Former US Senate major­i­ty leader George Mitchell and four stars General John Abizaid, for­mer Commander of the US Central Command, just two of the many.

To sug­gest that McCain was being mag­nan­i­mous then, would be to praise a man who sets fire to a build­ing then call the fire department.
It was McCain who chose the poi­so­nous hate-mon­ger Sarah Palin and released her onto the nation.
The raw big­otry which the world saw dur­ing the 2008 cam­paign was unprece­dent­ed and unwar­rant­ed. Yet John McCain stood by and did noth­ing as Palin poured the accel­er­ant of hate stok­ing the smol­der­ing embers of America’s big­otry and hate which lay just beneath the surface.
The resul­tant infer­no of racial ani­mus now engulf­ing America was reignit­ed on John McCain’s watch.
There is no rea­son­able­ness in McCain.
Every major pol­i­cy deci­sion McCain has tak­en, includ­ing choos­ing Sarah Palin has been dis­as­trous and wrong.
Unfortunately John McCain has been insu­lat­ed from crit­i­cism since his release from a Hanoi POW camp in March of 1973.
The brain-dead media is unwill­ing to con­front John McCain with the fol­ly of his posi­tions, wrong on every issue.
Never mind that McCain has con­sis­tent­ly got­ten every issue wrong, the media still puts him on nation­al tele­vi­sion as if he is some kind of for­eign pol­i­cy heavy-weight.

It should come as no sur­prise to any rea­son­able per­son that McCain still hold a grudge for the shel­lack­ing he took from the black guy.
It also should come as no sur­prise that McCain’s office has said that he will not sup­port Federal Prosecutor Loretta Lynch to be the next Attorney General and the first black woman to hold that post.
Every President is enti­tled under the con­sti­tu­tion to his nom­i­nees, that includes Obama.
There is noth­ing real­ly which they can point to in the past of Loretta Lynch which would dis­qual­i­fy her from being the next AG.
In fact Lynch who is supreme­ly qual­i­fied, has far bet­ter char­ac­ter than the Republican Senators who are hold­ing up her con­fir­ma­tion out of spite for the president.
McCain’s col­league Chuck Grassley — one of just four Republicans who have expressed sup­port for Lynch — said at her hear­ing: “If we can’t con­firm Loretta Lynch, then I don’t believe we can con­firm anyone”.

My ques­tion to Democrats is this, “are you tak­ing notes”?
One day they will have a pres­i­dent in the white house, what will you do then?
Are you going to rub­ber-stamp every­one and every­thing they bring to a vote as you have done over the decades?
Are you going to allow your­selves to be rail-road­ed into giv­ing them carte-blanche as you did with the Patriot Act?
This coun­try is becom­ing a shell of it’s own stat­ed ideals.
Why?
Because a bunch of racist reac­tionar­ies have tak­en con­trol of one par­ty and the oth­er par­ty is too cow­ard­ly to fight back.
On issue after issue they have been proven wrong, yet time and again, they have been allowed to drag America to the brink, because the Democratic par­ty is too weak to stand up for America.
Too weak and divid­ed to stand up for it’s own President.

What we do not hear in black church­es is a fac­tu­al rev­e­la­tion of the true his­to­ry of this coun­try we now come to know as America.
What we do not hear is a run­ning his­tor­i­cal com­men­tary which tells the true sto­ry of this country.
That the lying Christopher Columbus and the white suprema­cist nar­ra­tive which evolved from his exploita­tive for­ay into this sec­tion of the Globe was one of lies and deception.
What black pas­tors do not preach is that when this demon land­ed here he saw black man and brown man liv­ing here in peace., side by side.

You can­not preach it if you do not know it .
Farrakhan knows it , that’s why unabashed­ly and unafraid he tells it.
That is why they hate him.
We can allow our past to be told by our oppres­sors which in turn dic­tate our future , essen­tial­ly acqui­esc­ing to (his-sto­ry).
Or we may edu­cate our­selves about our his­to­ry, and decide our own future.
The American black is cow­ard­ly and feckless . 
His strength is used for bring­ing harm to his sis­ters and brothers.
When it’s time to stand with those who look out for his inter­est he is large­ly absent.
How can you be a racist if you talk about the pogrom, arguably the worst human atroc­i­ty ever to be vis­it­ed on a race of peo­ple by anoth­er race?
Why would you allow your­self to be cowed , or con­trolled by the sons and daugh­ters of those who raped and mur­dered your fore-parents?
People who stand by as their police slaugh­ter your children.
People who go into vot­ing booths and elect reac­tionar­ies who are ded­i­cat­ed to your demise.

If the life you live is for your­self it is a wast­ed life.
It is even worse if the life you live is one based on enter­tain­ment and las­civ­i­ous vices, a life which is out of touch with hap­pen­ings around you.
If you do not decide , oth­ers will decide for you.
There are no short­age of self hat­ing blacks who are quite con­tent to be sec­ond class cit­i­zens despite lofty perch­es in American society .
Their perch­es range from the Supreme Court, to the halls of Congress , from Hospital emer­gency rooms to police departments. 
Prized Negros have con­sumed the drug of grad­u­al­ism Dr King spoke about. The drug Malcolm had no patience for.
Go along to get along is a pre­scrip­tion for con­tin­ued sec­ond-class citizenship.
Black peo­ple must rise up and take respon­si­bil­i­ty for their coun­try, this coun­try they call America. 
This coun­try the European American claim as the coun­try their fore-par­ents built.
With no men­tion or appre­ci­a­tion for the blood, sweat and agony of our fore-par­ents, mil­lions of who died so this coun­try could take on life.

Why do you care what your ene­my think about you?
Any non-black opposed to your right to dig­ni­ty, respect and full cit­i­zen­ship is an enemy. 
Therefore he does not count , his opin­ion does not matter.
Why do you sit idly and uni­formed while he sends his chil­dren to good schools.
His chil­dren are not harassed and killed by police.
His is white privilege.
He has priv­i­lege because you don’t, that’s why it’s called privilege.
[Privilege] “a spe­cial right, advan­tage, or immu­ni­ty grant­ed or avail­able only to a par­tic­u­lar per­son or group of people”.
If your white friend do not want you to have it , con­sid­er your choice of friends or your under­stand­ing of friendship.
Throughout the sojourn of this exper­i­ment good peo­ple, black and white have strug­gled and died because of their desire to see all peo­ple live in peace and with dignity.
Not all white peo­ple are ene­mies of our race, of our people.
Let us embrace those who share in our struggle,those who stand with us, even as we con­front those who would do us harm.
