Kissinger, US intelligence community endorse
“World Without Israel”
Iran's President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been vilified in the Western media for
daring to imagine “a world without Israel.”
But according to news reports, Henry Kissinger and sixteen American intelligence
agencies agree that in the near future, Israel will no longer exist.
The New York Post quotes Kissinger “word for word”: In 10 years, there will be
no more Israel.
Kissinger's statement is flat and unqualified. He is not saying that Israel is
in danger, but could be saved if we just gave it additional trillions of dollars
and smashed enough of its enemies with our military. He is not saying that if we
elect Netanyahu's old friend Mitt Romney, Israel could somehow be salvaged. He
is not saying that if we bomb Iran, Israel might survive. He is not offering a
way out. He is simply stating a fact: In 2022, Israel will no longer exist.
The US Intelligence Community agrees, though perhaps not on the precise 2022
expiration date. Sixteen US intelligence agencies with a combined budget over
USD70 billion have issued an 82-page analysis titled “Preparing for a
Post-Israel Middle East.”
The US intelligence report observes that the 700,000 Israeli settlers illegally
squatting on land stolen in 1967 - land that the entire world agrees belongs to
Palestine, not Israel - are not going to pack up and leave peacefully. Since the
world will never accept their ongoing presence on stolen land, Israel is like
South Africa in the late 1980s.
The extremist Likud coalition governing Israel, according to the US intelligence
report, is increasingly condoning and supporting rampant violence and
lawlessness by illegal settlers. The report states that the brutality and
criminality of the settlers, and the growing apartheid-style infrastructure
including the apartheid wall and the ever-more-draconian system of checkpoints,
are indefensible, unsustainable, and out of synch with American values.
The sixteen US intelligence agencies agree that Israel cannot withstand the
coming pro-Palestinian juggernaut consisting of the Arab Spring, the Islamic
Awakening, and the rise of the Islamic Republic of Iran.
In the past, dictatorships in the region kept a lid on the pro-Palestinian
aspirations of their people. But those dictatorships began to topple with the
fall of the pro-Israel Shah of Iran in 1979 and the establishment of a
democratic Islamic Republic, whose government had little choice but to reflect
its people's opposition to Israel. The same process - the overthrow of dictators
who worked with, or at least tolerated, Israel - is now accelerating throughout
the region. The result will be governments that are more democratic, more
Islamic, and far less friendly to Israel.
The US intelligence community report says that in light of these realities, the
US government simply no longer has the military and financial resources to
continue propping up Israel against the wishes of more than a billion of its
neighbors. In order to normalize relations with 57 Islamic countries, the report
suggests, the US will have to follow its own national interests and pull the
plug on Israel.
Interestingly, neither Henry Kissinger nor the authors of the US Intelligence
Report give any sign that they are going to mourn the demise of Israel. This is
remarkable, given that Kissinger is Jewish and has always been viewed as a
friend (if occasionally a tough friend) of Israel, and that all Americans,
including those who work for intelligence agencies, have been influenced by the
strongly pro-Israel media.
What explains such complacency?
Americans who pay attention to international affairs - a category that surely
includes Kissinger and the authors of the Intelligence Report - are growing fed
up with Israeli intransigence and fanaticism. Netanyahu's bizarre,
widely-ridiculed performance at the United Nations, where he brandished a
cartoonish caricature of a bomb in such a way that he himself came across as a
caricature of a “mad Zionist,” was the latest in a series of gaffes by Israeli
leaders who seem prone to overplaying their hand.
A second factor is the festering resentment many Americans feel over the Israel
Lobby's imperious domination of public discourse. Every time a well-known
American journalist is fired for going “off-script” about Israel, as happened to
Helen Thomas and Rick Sanchez, a mostly-invisible backlash, like a tidal wave
rippling beneath the surface of the ocean, grows in power. And every time the
Israel lobby slaps down someone like Maureen Dowd, who recently observed that
the same Israel-fanatics who dragged the US into the Iraq war are now trying to
do the same thing with Iran, the more people begin to wake up and realize that
people like Dowd, Thomas, and Sanchez are speaking the truth.
A third reason for complacency in the face of Israel's impending demise: The
American Jewish community is no longer united in support of Israel, much less
its Likudnik leadership. Sophisticated Jewish journalists and analysts like
Philip Weiss are recognizing the insanity of Israel's current leadership and the
hopelessness of its predicament. According to recent reports, it is no longer
fashionable among young American Jews to care about Israel. And despite
Netanyahu's frantic attempts to sway Jewish voters toward the Mormon Likudnik
Mitt Romney, polls show that Obama, who is on record saying he “hates” the
“liar” Netanyahu, will easily win the majority of Jewish votes.
Finally, we come to the least obvious - but most powerful - reason for
Kissinger's and the CIA's complacency in the face of Israel's implosion: The
inexorable trickle-down of knowledge that Israel and its supporters, not radical
Muslims, carried out the 9/11 false-flag attacks.
Increasingly, it is not fringe anti-Semitic groups, but high-level responsible
observers, who are saying this. Alan Sabrosky, the half-Jewish former Director
of Strategic Studies at the US Army War College, has come on my radio show to
say that he has discussed with his colleagues the “100% certainty” that Israel
and its supporters did 9/11. And Alan Hart, the former lead BBC correspondent
for the Middle East (and personal friend of Golda Meir and Yasser Arafat) has
also come on my radio show to break the story that he, too, knows that Israel
and company orchestrated 9/11.
Today, we even have a presidential candidate, Merlin Miller, who is on the
record stating that Israel, not al-Qaeda, carried out the 9/11 attacks.
The chief purpose of 9/11 was to “seal in blood” an intense, unbreakable
emotional bond between the US and Israel, in a desperate bid to assure Israel's
survival by launching a long-term US war against Israel's enemies. As the
“dancing Israelis” arrested for celebrating the 9/11 operation tried to convince
the police: “Our enemies are your enemies. The Palestinians are your enemies.”
But more and more Americans, including the US intelligence community as a whole,
now recognize that the enemies of Israel (the entire Muslim world of over 1.5
billion people, along with most of the non-European world) do not have to be the
enemies of the United States. In fact, the US is going broke and sacrificing
thousands of lives in wars for Israel - wars that damage, rather than aid, US
strategic interests. (One of those interests, of course, is buying oil and gas
from stable, cooperative governments.)
As the recognition grows that 9/11 was not a radical Islamic attack, but an act
of dastardly, bloody treason by supporters of Israel, it will become ever-easier
for American policy makers, following in the footsteps of Kissinger and the
sixteen intelligence agencies, to recognize the obvious: Israel has reached the
end of its shelf-life.
