JEWISH ROOTS IN JUDEA AND SAMARIA, nice article: research by Yoram Ettinger, written by Hillel Fendel


Jewish, Not Arab, Roots in Judea and Samaria
Av 10, 5769, 31 July 09 02:11
by Hillel Fendel

(Israelnationalnews.com) US Pres. Obama’s demand that Israel not settle Jews in the Biblical areas of Judea and Samaria ignores thoroughly-documented Jewish roots in the Land of Israel, and in Judea/Samaria in particular.

Yoram Ettinger,
a former liaison for Congressional affairs in Israel's Washington embassy, lists in the latest of his periodic position papers some of the evidence showing that Judea and Samaria has Jewish, not Arab, roots.

Area Always Known as "Judea and Samaria"
Ettinger negates Obama's claim – enunciated during his June 4, 2009 speech at Cairo University – that "the aspiration for a Jewish homeland is rooted in" the Holocaust. For one thing, Ettinger notes, many world-renowned travelers, historians and archeologists of earlier centuries refer to "Judea and Samaria," while the term "West Bank" was coined only 60 years ago. Jordan gave the region this name when it occupied it after Israel’s War of Independence. No nation on earth other than Britain and Pakistan recognized Jordan’s claim to Judea and Samaria.

Among the travelers, historians and archeologists who referred to Judea and Samaria are H. B. Tristram (The Land of Israel, 1865); Mark Twain (Innocents Abroad, 1867); R.A. MacAlister and Masterman ("Palestine Exploration Fund Quarterly"); A.P. Stanley (Sinai and Palestine, 1887); E. Robinson and E. Smith (Biblical Researches in Palestine, 1841); C.W. Van de Velde (Peise durch Syrien und Paletsinea, 1861); and Felix Bovet (Voyage en Taire Sainte, 1864). Even the Encyclopedia Britannica, as well as official British and Ottoman records until 1950, used the term Judea and Samaria, and not the West Bank.

Land Was Named "Palestine" in Order to Erase Jewish Presence
Ettinger goes even further back, and says that the name "Palestine" was given to the Holy Land for the sole purpose of erasing the previous name of the country – Judea – from human memory. The Romans, whose plan this was, similarly sought to extinguish Jewish presence in Jerusalem by renaming it Aelia Capitolina.

Arabs Came in the Last 150 Years
When speaking of “Palestinian national rights,” it must be similarly kept in mind, Ettinger notes, that most Arabs residing today in Israel – anywhere between the Jordan River and the Mediterranean - have their origin in a massive 19th-20th century migration from Egypt, Syria, Lebanon and other Moslem countries.

Town Names Betray Their True History
Finally, Ettinger says that almost all Arab localities in Judea and Samaria have retained Biblical Jewish names, thus reaffirming their Jewish roots. Examples include the following:

* Anata is Biblical (and contemporary) Anatot, the dwelling of the Prophet Jeremiah.
* Batir is Biblical (and contemporary) Beitar, the headquarters of Bar Kochba, the leader of the Great Rebellion against the Roman Empire, which was suppressed in 135CE.
* Beit-Hur is the biblical (and contemporary) Beit Horon, site of Judah the Maccabee's victory over the Assyrians.
* Beitin is biblical (and contemporary) Beit El, a site of the Holy Ark and Prophet Samuel's court.
* Bethlehem is mentioned 44 times in the Bible and is the birth place of King David.
* Beit Jalla is biblical (and contemporary) Gilo, in southern Jerusalem, where Sennacherib set his camp, while besieging Jerusalem.
* El-Jib is biblical (and contemporary) Gibeon, Joshua's battleground known for his command to stop the sun and moon (Joshua 10:12).
* Jaba' is the biblical (and contemporary) Geva, site of King Saul’s son Jonathan’s victory over the Philistines.
* Jenin is the biblical (and contemporary) Ein Ganim, a Levite town within the tribe of Issachar.
* Mukhmas is biblical (and contemporary) Mikhmash, residence of Jonathan the Maccabee and site of King Saul's fortress.
* Seilun is biblical (and contemporary) Shilo, a site of Joshua's tabernacle and the Holy Ark and Samuel's youth.
* Tequa is biblical (and contemporary) Tekoa, hometown of the Prophet Amos.

Arabs Never Wanted Palestinian State
In another of his posts, Ettinger has negated the US government position that a Palestinian state is the crux of the Arab-Israeli conflict and that its formation would resolve the situation. He cites proofs from recent history showing that Arab antipathy to Israel not only predates Palestinian concerns, but often sidesteps such interests.

Israel's war for its independence in 1948-9, for instance, was conducted by the Arab countries at the expense of Palestinian aspirations. Though Egypt conquered Gaza, and Jordan took Judea and Samaria, and Syria claimed the Golan, in none of these areas was a Palestinian government allowed.

When Egypt conquered the Gaza Strip, it proceeded to prohibit Palestinian national activities and expel Palestinian leadership. Not only did Jordan not grant Palestinian independence to Judea and Samaria, it actually annexed these areas to its own country. When Syria occupied and annexed the Hama area in the Golan Heights, the Arab League outlawed a provisional Palestinian government there.

In short, it can be concluded that Arab "rights" to a state in Judea and Samaria are historically weak and were long ignored by other Arab countries.

ALTAR COMPLETED DECEMBER 25, 2009! On Tisha Be'av, Temple Altar Construction Began: see this very moving video. More to come.

Temple Altar Construction Begins






Temple Altar Construction Begins on Day of Destruction
Av 9, 5769, 30 July 09 11:47
by Yehudah Lev Kay

(Israelnationalnews.com) The Temple Institute began work on the sacrificial altar Thursday, Tisha B’av, the day the Second Temple was destroyed almost 2,000 years ago.


The Temple Institute has already built several of the Temple vessels such as the Ark and the menorah, and has now embarked on an ambitious project to build the altar, which will ultimately measure 3 meters wide by 3 meters long and 2 meters tall.

During Thursday’s ceremony, which took place in Mitzpe Yericho just east of Jerusalem, the Temple Institute laid the cornerstone for the altar and demonstrated how tar will be used to cement the stones together. The Institute plans on bringing the altar to its proper place on the Temple Mount when the Temple is rebuilt.

“Today, Tisha B’av, is not just a time to mourn the destruction of the Temple,” said Rabbi Yisrael Ariel, the head of the Temple Institute. “It is also a time to build.”

Rabbi Ariel thanked the more than 100 people who came to the event despite their fasting for Tisha B’Av, and despite the hot weather. The main force behind the construction of the altar, Yonaton Tzadok, was also on hand to explain why its stones were taken straight from the Dead Sea.

“The altar is supposed to represent going back to our roots, to the time of creation when everything was pure,” he said. “We took rocks from the Dead Sea, where it is likely that they were never touched by human hands.

During the ceremony, many people who came to watch were surprised when they were invited to take part and pour tar onto the cornerstones. Rabbi Ariel first asked if there were any Kohanim (priests) in the crowd, and asked them start. When a woman requested to join in, Rabbi Ariel said "of course" and emphasized that women are commanded to build the Temple as well.

With the sun setting, Tzadok asked for volunteers to come back another day to help build the altar. “Carrying rocks and pouring tar is a lot of work,” he said. “We could use a few hundred people to help.” More information on the Temple Institute is available at http://www.templeinstitute.org/main.htm.

הופיע בחור ספרדי חרדי ובידו תפילה מודפסת על קרטון שחיבר מקובל לפני שלושה שבועות. הוא אמר את שמו ובה כתוב תפילה ליסוד המזבח החיצון על ידי הקב"ה בתשעה באב זה.
לדעתי איש מאתנו אולי למעט יונתן צדוק לא ידע על הכוונה לייסד את המזבח בתשעה באב. הנושא החל מבחינתי להידון רק לפני כעשרה ימים וההחלטה לקיימו הייתה ביום ראשון האחרון משהו כמו ד' באב....

I very much hope to participate in the Korban Pessach of next year, B"H. Maybe Hashem give us LIFE, protect us from our many enemies, and give us the Zechut, the merit, to participate in the first Korban Pessach in almost 2,000 years.

UPDATE:

(IsraelNN.com) The Temple Institute in Jerusalem announced Friday, December 25, 2009, the completion of a model of the biblical altar which G-d, through Moses, commanded the nation of Israel to build at the Mount of Eval (Ebal) overlooking Shechem:  
“And there you shall build an altar unto Hashem your God, an altar of stones: you shall lift up no iron tool upon them. You shall build the altar of Hashem your G-d of unhewn stones.”

Monsanto lobbyists to be placed in charge of food safety

By Jeffrey Smith

The person who may be responsible for more food-related illness and death than anyone in history has just been made the US food safety czar. This is no joke.

Here's the back story.

When FDA scientists were asked to weigh in on what was to become the most radical and potentially dangerous change in our food supply -- the introduction of genetically modified (GM) foods -- secret documents now reveal that the experts were very concerned. Memo after memo described toxins, new diseases, nutritional deficiencies, and hard-to-detect allergens. They were adamant that the technology carried "serious health hazards," and required careful, long-term research, including human studies, before any genetically modified organisms (GMOs) could be safely released into the food supply.

But the biotech industry had rigged the game so that neither science nor scientists would stand in their way. They had placed their own man in charge of FDA policy and he wasn't going to be swayed by feeble arguments related to food safety. No, he was going to do what corporations had done for decades to get past these types of pesky concerns. He was going to lie.

Dangerous Food Safety Lies

When the FDA was constructing their GMO policy in 1991-2, their scientists were clear that gene-sliced foods were significantly different and could lead to "different risks" than conventional foods. But official policy declared the opposite, claiming that the FDA knew nothing of significant differences, and declared GMOs substantially equivalent.

This fiction became the rationale for allowing GM foods on the market without any required safety studies whatsoever! The determination of whether GM foods were safe to eat was placed entirely in the hands of the companies that made them -- companies like Monsanto, which told us that the PCBs, DDT, and Agent Orange were safe.

GMOs were rushed onto our plates in 1996. Over the next nine years, multiple chronic illnesses in the US nearly doubled -- from 7% to 13%. Allergy-related emergency room visits doubled between 1997 and 2002 while food allergies, especially among children, skyrocketed. We also witnessed a dramatic rise in asthma, autism, obesity, diabetes, digestive disorders, and certain cancers.

In January of this year, Dr. P. M. Bhargava, one of the world's top biologists, told me that after reviewing 600 scientific journals, he concluded that the GM foods in the US are largely responsible for the increase in many serious diseases.

In May, the American Academy of Environmental Medicine concluded that animal studies have demonstrated a causal relationship between GM foods and infertility, accelerated aging, dysfunctional insulin regulation, changes in major organs and the gastrointestinal system, and immune problems such as asthma, allergies, and inflammation

In July, a report by eight international experts determined that the flimsy and superficial evaluations of GMOs by both regulators and GM companies "systematically overlook the side effects" and significantly underestimate "the initial signs of diseases like cancer and diseases of the hormonal, immune, nervous and reproductive systems, among others."

The Fox Guarding the Chickens

If GMOs are indeed responsible for massive sickness and death, then the individual who oversaw the FDA policy that facilitated their introduction holds a uniquely infamous role in human history. That person is Michael Taylor. He had been Monsanto's attorney before becoming policy chief at the FDA. Soon after, he became Monsanto's vice president and chief lobbyist.

This month Michael Taylor became the senior advisor to the commissioner of the FDA. He is now America's food safety czar. What have we done?

The Milk Man Cometh

While Taylor was at the FDA in the early 90's, he also oversaw the policy regarding Monsanto's genetically engineered bovine growth hormone (rbGH/rbST) -- injected into cows to increase milk supply.

The milk from injected cows has more pus, more antibiotics, more bovine growth hormone, and most importantly, more insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1). IGF-1 is a huge risk factor for common cancers and its high levels in this drugged milk is why so many medical organizations and hospitals have taken stands against rbGH. A former Monsanto scientist told me that when three of his Monsanto colleagues evaluated rbGH safety and discovered the elevated IGF-1 levels, even they refused to drink any more milk -- unless it was organic and therefore untreated.

Government scientists from Canada evaluated the FDA's approval of rbGH and concluded that it was a dangerous facade. The drug was banned in Canada, as well as Europe, Japan, Australia and New Zealand. But it was approved in the US while Michael Taylor was in charge. His drugged milk might have caused a significant rise in US cancer rates. Additional published evidence also implicates rbGH in the high rate of fraternal twins in the US.

Taylor also determined that milk from injected cows did not require any special labeling. And as a gift to his future employer Monsanto, he wrote a white paper suggesting that if companies ever had the audacity to label their products as not using rbGH, they should also include a disclaimer stating that according to the FDA, there is no difference between milk from treated and untreated cows.

Taylor's disclaimer was also a lie. Monsanto's own studies and FDA scientists officially acknowledged differences in the drugged milk. No matter. Monsanto used Taylor's white paper as the basis to successfully sue dairies that labeled their products as rbGH-free.

Will Monsanto's Wolff Also Guard the Chickens?

As consumers learned that rbGH was dangerous, they refused to buy the milk. To keep their customers, a tidal wave of companies has publicly committed to not use the drug and to label their products as such. Monsanto tried unsuccessfully to convince the FDA and FTC to make it illegal for dairies to make rbGH-free claims, so they went to their special friend in Pennsylvania -- Dennis Wolff. As state secretary of agriculture, Wolff unilaterally declared that labeling products rbGH-free was illegal, and that all such labels must be removed from shelves statewide. This would, of course, eliminate the label from all national brands, as they couldn't afford to create separate packaging for just one state.

Fortunately, consumer demand forced Pennsylvania's Governor Ed Rendell to step in and stop Wolff's madness. But Rendell allowed Wolff to take a compromised position that now requires rbGH-free claims to also be accompanied by Taylor's FDA disclaimer on the package.

President Obama is considering Dennis Wolff for the top food safety post at the USDA. Yikes!

Rumor has it that the reason why Pennsylvania's governor is supporting Wolff's appointment is to get him out of the state -- after he "screwed up so badly" with the rbGH decision. Oh great, governor. Thanks.

Ohio Governor Gets Taylor-itus

Ohio not only followed Pennsylvania's lead by requiring Taylor's FDA disclaimer on packaging, they went a step further. They declared that dairies must place that disclaimer on the same panel where rbGH-free claims are made, and even dictated the font size. This would force national brands to re-design their labels and may ultimately dissuade them from making rbGH-free claims at all. The Organic Trade Association and the International Dairy Foods Association filed a lawsuit against Ohio. Although they lost the first court battle, upon appeal, the judge ordered a mediation session that takes place today. Thousands of Ohio citizens have flooded Governor Strickland's office with urgent requests to withdraw the states anti-consumer labeling requirements.

Perhaps the governor has an ulterior motive for pushing his new rules. If he goes ahead with his labeling plans, he might end up with a top appointment in the Obama administration.

And of course, surprise, surprise, the following article appears, ostensibly based on research in the UK. But notice how GENETICALLY ENGINEERED FOOD IS ABSENT FROM THE DEBATE - why is that??  Is this another smokescreen kind of study, to encourage people to use mainstream nutrition?

And a big question is; does organically grown food contain genetically engineered material, or not? After all, the SEED contains the genetic material, and I don't see why one wouldn't be able to grow genetically engineered seeds organically as well!

http://www.natural-law-party.org.uk/UKmanifesto/geneticengineering0.ht

What is the position now?

Genetically modified foods available, or about to appear, in UK shops include tomatoes, yeast, maize, and soya (which is used in many processed foods, such as bread, pasta, confectionery, ice cream, pies, biscuits, margarine, meat products and vegetarian meat substitutes). Products derived from genetically modified organisms are also used to produce cheeses and rape-seed oil. But this is just the beginning. In a few years it may be almost impossible to find natural food.

'Organic' May Not Mean Healthier

British Study Finds no Better Nutrient Value Than in Conventionally Produced Foods

By Amanda Gardner
HealthDay Reporter

July 30, 2009

Food that beckons from the organic aisles of grocery stores may not be any better for you than what lines the rest of supermarket shelves.

According to a British review of studies done over the past 50 years, organic and conventionally produced foods have about the same nutrient content, suggesting that neither is better in terms of health benefits.

"We did not find any important differences in nutrient content between organically and conventionally produced foods," said study author Alan Dangour, a registered public health nutritionist with the London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine.

Nonetheless, the researchers noted, organic foods continue to grow in popularity. In the United Kingdom, the market share for organic foods increased 22 percent from 2005 to 2007, they said.

Likewise, the market for organic foods in the United States has grown at about a 20 percent rate each year since 1990, reaching $13.8 billion in consumer sales in 2005, according to the Organic Trade Association. That represents 2.5 percent of total food sales in the country, the trade group noted.

"As a registered dietitian, it is good to see that a systematic review of the literature supports what has long been believed -- that the nutritional content of traditionally grown foods and organic foods are comparable," said Connie Diekman, director of university nutrition at Washington University in St. Louis and past president of the American Dietetic Association. "This report provides confirmation for consumers that if they choose conventionally grown foods or organic foods they will be meeting their nutritional needs."

The review zeroed in on 162 studies that dealt with the nutrient content of foods. Only 55 were of what the researchers considered to be "satisfactory quality" -- a strong indicator that, overall, the science on the subject is not up to snuff.

They found no noted differences between conventional and organic crops with regard to vitamin C, magnesium, calcium, potassium, zinc and copper content. Organic crops did have higher levels of phosphorus, and conventionally produced crops had higher levels of nitrogen.

No differences in nutrient content were indicated in the livestock studies, according to the review.

The Oregon-based Organic Center, which promotes organic food, conducted a similar review of the literature, said Charles Benbrook, chief scientist for the Center. That study yielded results similar to those in the British study, but it also found higher levels of healthy antioxidants and polyphenols in organic foods.

"Given that some of the most significant differences favoring organic foods were for key antioxidant nutrients that most Americans do not get enough of on most days, we concluded that the consumption of organic fruits and vegetables, in particular, offered significant health benefits, roughly equivalent to an additional serving of a moderately nutrient dense fruit or vegetable on an average day," Benbrook said.

And there's another aspect to the organic vs. conventional food debate, said Sheah Rarback, director of nutrition at the Mailman Center for Child Development at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.

"You have to also look at what you're not getting" with organic foods, she said. "Maybe it's not a big difference nutritionally, but conventional products may have more pesticides."

And that's a particularly important issue for children, she said.

"We know that young children are getting the nutrition, whatever choice they make, but we also have to look at the pesticide issue," Rarback said. "A study published in Environmental Health Perspectives found that children eating conventionally grown fruit had pesticide residue in their urine, which decreased after just five days on an organic diet."

The production of organic food is subject to a variety of regulations, including those that govern the use of pesticides and other chemicals in fruits and vegetables and the use of medicines in animals, the authors of the review noted in their study, which will be published in the September issue of the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition.

Rarback indicated that the ability to get solid research on organic versus conventionally produced products is hampered by variations in the production process.

"There are so many variables," she said. "Where is something grown? Where is it shipped from? How long was it on the truck? There are going to be variables in terms of nutrition just from production methods."

... and my question is also: why is this study labeled a BRITISH study, when in fact, most of the sources are American?







Update:

Read the article below. So THAT's how they managed to get this law passed. Now recent food illness outbreaks make a lot of sense, in retrospective; they were NEEDED in order for this law to be accepted by the general public, who has NO IDEA WHO is guarding the chicken coop.

Pass it around.


House passes far-reaching food safety bill

By MARY CLARE JALONICK (AP) – 27 minutes ago

WASHINGTON — The House has passed a far-reaching food safety bill requiring more government inspections and imposing new penalties on those who violate the law, reacting strongly to an outbreak of salmonella in peanuts that killed at least nine people.

The legislation would require greater oversight of food manufacturers and give the Food and Drug Administration new authority to order recalls. It also would require the FDA to develop a system for better tracing food-borne illnesses. Food companies would be required to create detailed food safety plans.

President Barack Obama praised the bill soon after it was passed, calling it "a major step forward in modernizing our food safety system."

Farm-state members had argued that the bill would be too invasive on farms and had pushed colleagues to vote against it as it was considered under a special procedure that requires a two-thirds vote. It was rejected Wednesday by a few votes.

Democrats scrambled to put the legislation back on the House floor Thursday under a rule that required a simple majority to pass. The vote was 283-142.

Supporters said the legislation would help the FDA change its focus from a reactive to a more preventive approach in keeping the nation's food safe.

"Americans are dying because the Food and Drug Administration doesn't have the authority to protect them," said Michigan Rep. John Dingell, the bill's sponsor and a long-serving Democrat who has been pushing for tougher standards for more than a decade.

A similar bill sponsored by Sen. Richard Durbin, D-Ill., has not yet seen action in the Senate.

The legislation gained new momentum in the wake of one of the largest product recalls in U.S. history, stemming from salmonella in peanuts that killed nine people, sickened hundreds of others and was linked to shoddy practices at a peanut company in Georgia. Other recent outbreaks include contaminated spinach in 2006 and salmonella in peppers last year. The government estimates that 76 million people each year are sickened by food-borne illness, hundreds of thousands are hospitalized and around 5,000 die.

Those outbreaks have exposed a lack of resources and authority at the FDA as the embattled agency has struggled to contain and trace them. In the peanut outbreak, FDA inspectors quickly focused on the small Georgia processing plant but had to invoke bioterror laws to get lab reports that ultimately showed the company shipped tainted peanuts. Meanwhile, the agency had no authority to order a food recall.

Connecticut Rep. Rosa DeLauro has said the bill is a solid first step but said she believes Congress needs to go even further and reorganize FDA to help it better focus on its "food" mission. She has introduced legislation that would divide the FDA in two, separating the agency's drug oversight and food safety duties.

The FDA regulates most foods, though as many as 15 federal agencies have a hand in food safety. The Agriculture Department inspects meats, poultry and some eggs.

The bill, which has support from the food industry as well as a wide range of consumer groups, would give the agency the authority to order recalls if a company fails to act on its own, and would increase the frequency of inspections to high-risk food processing facilities. It would charge food processors an annual $500 fee to help defray the cost of increased enforcement.

Sponsors tweaked the legislation in recent days to appease the farm-state members who objected to it. Last-minute changes included modifying the way a trace-back system would work, clarifying that some hard-to-trace products, such as grains, would not be tracked to individual farms. It also lessened paperwork for some farms and clarified that some smaller operations would not have to register with the FDA or pay fees.

Those changes appeased most farm-state Democrats, but many Republicans still voted against it, saying it would be invasive to farmers and not do enough to improve food safety. Oklahoma Rep. Frank Lucas, the top Republican on the House Agriculture Committee, led the charge against the legislation.

"The bill still goes too far in the direction of trying to produce food from a bureaucrat's chair in Washington D.C.," Lucas said.

THAT'S THE WAY TO GO! Good for you, Jews.


Jewish Activists Move into Arab Jerusalem Neighborhood
Av 9, 5769, 30 July 09 07:48
by Baruch Gordon

(Israelnationalnews.com) In response to increased international pressure on Israel’s government to halt Jewish construction in eastern Jerusalem, activists from the Zionist Freedom Alliance have taken up residence in the neighborhood of Beit Hanina.

Beit Hanina is located at the northern tip of Jerusalem within the capital’s municipal boundaries but is occupied almost exclusively by Arabs, with the exception of one building on the periphery of the neighborhood. The seven-unit building, known as Beit Shiva, has since the 1967 Six Day War been the home of several veterans of Lehi (Lohamei Herut Israel — Fighters for the Freedom of Israel) who fought a war of liberation up to 1948 against the British occupation of Palestine in a successful campaign to restore national freedom to the Jewish people. The two ZFA activists who recently moved into the building are seeking roommates to share their 5 room apartment.

We are here not only to show the current residents of Beit Shiva our support, but also to show the world that all of Jerusalem is and will continue to remain under Hebrew sovereignty,” explained activist "XX" who moved into the building on the 17th day of Tammuz, a national fast day held 3 weeks ago commemorating the Roman army’s breach of Jerusalem’s walls. “We cannot allow foreign leaders to push for anti-Jewish discriminatory housing policies anywhere in Israel, much less in our capital."

The modern ZFA largely identifies with the ideology of Lehi, which was an anti-imperialist Zionist underground movement that fought against Great Britain for Jewish self-determination over the entire Land of Israel. ZFA leader Yehuda HaKohen says, “In addition to strengthening the Jewish hold over Jerusalem, moving our activists into this particular building is beneficial because we have much to learn from our national heroes living there. Like the Maccabees and Sicarii of ancient times, Lehi fighters represent a very important link in Israel’s struggle for freedom. Moving into Beit Shiva is also an act of defiance against foreign imperialists trying to rob us of our homeland.”

About money...in the US, and in the world.





Carl sent me this article by Lyndon Larouche. I am NOT an apologist for Larouche at all, he is a reputed antisemite and Holocaust denier. However, he has been praised for his FINANCIAL insights.This is all and strictly what I am quoting him for: let him help some JEWS keep their funds in difficult times, why not?!!

Wikipedia:

....LaRouche was credited by press in Italy, Argentina, and Mexico as the economist who successfully forecast the financial crisis of 2007–2009. Covering a press conference at the European Parliament in Strassbourg on December 17, 2008, Ivo Caizzi of the Italian newspaper Corriere della Sera referred to LaRouche as "the guru politician who, since the nineties, has announced the crash of speculative finances and the need for a New Bretton Woods."....

So, if we are willing to divorce ourselves of the man and his views, and focus on his financial acumen.....

This article appears in the July 31, 2009 issue of Executive Intelligence Review.

The Ultimate October Surprise

Lyndon LaRouche has issued a pointed warning: The final collapse of the entire global financial system is just months away, and the window is rapidly closing on the last, best opportunity to avert a global plunge into a Dark Age that will make Europe's plunge in the 14th Century seem mild by comparison.

By LaRouche's estimate, as things stand now, the close of the fiscal year, on Sept. 30, will mark the onset of a full-scale financial crash, by no later than mid-October, once the year-end figures have been presented, and the panic sets in. LaRouche has never been wrong in any of his long-range forecasts, and the last time he gave such a precise date for a financial shock, was in the Summer of 1987, when he warned that the financial bubble was going to burst sometime in October. He was right then, and he is right today.

Recent studies show that 48 U.S. states are fundamentally insolvent. While official unemployment is hovering just below 10%, in some former industrial states, like Michigan and Ohio, the figure is more than double that amount. Only 29% of the currently unemployed are receiving benefits, with 38 states behind, or unable to enroll the newly unemployed—because they have run out of money!

As a growing number of economists are coming to realize, LaRouche has been right: This is not a recession. It is not even a Great Depression. This is the collapse of the entire global dollar-based financial system. The insane policies of both the Bush and Obama administrations have created the greatest financial bubble in history, through the $24 trillion bailout of the banks and insurance companies. We are on the verge of Weimar hyperinflation on a global scale.

Had Congress the guts to act, when LaRouche first warned that the collapse was on, in his now-famous July 25, 2007 webcast, the system could have been reformed. LaRouche spelled out the precise steps that could have been taken then, in his Homeowners and Bank Protection Act (HBPA). State legislatures and city councils around the United States endorsed the HBPA at the time, but no action was forthcoming from Washington.

No reform of the system is possible. The entire system must be put through bankruptcy reorganization. Nothing else will work, and time is running out. Unless emergency action is taken by the second week in October, mankind is facing a living Hell, in which world population will rapidly plunge—through disease, famine, and the chaos of regional wars—to below 2 billion people.

What is to be done? The first step is to deliver a crushing defeat to President Obama's and his economic team's prescription for a Nazi-modeled euthanasia plan, dubbed "health-care reform." By defeating this genocidal scheme, the opportunity will arise to purge this new administration of the likes of Larry Summers, Tim Geithner, Peter Orszag, and the rest of the behavioral economists behind this Hitlerian scheme to declare whole segments of the population—starting with the elderly and the chronically ill—as what Hitler called "lives not worthy of living."

On the basis of that defeat, a new team of economists, grounded in the reality of this existential crisis, can be brought in. LaRouche has spelled out how to put the current system through bankruptcy reorganization, and to reconstitute the kind of credit system conceived by Benjamin Franklin and his brilliant protégé Alexander Hamilton.

It's either LaRouche's solution or a Dark Age. You decide.


2. On the other hand, here is another, similar but more balanced view, by Martin Weiss.

I like Martin Weiss, to my opinion he is a very smart, learned and sound investing advisor, although he does like to sell his ware, I must say.

And here is what Weiss's Safe Money Report had to say today: for full information, please refer to his newsletters. M. Weiss sees a few more months until the whole thing unravels once more. Unlike Larouche, however, he is a very circumspect thinker, and has reasons for his claims. He is a PROFESSIONAL, not a DEMAGOGUE.

Still, it seems that both agree that a major downturn is still in the making, whether in one or two months, or whether in one or two quarters.

You be the judge.


"....First and foremost, the federal government is deeper in debt than ever. Washington now owes $15 trillion. Worse, it's adding as much as $2 trillion to the national debt this year alone and pushing new spending bills that, if passed, will make these record-shattering deficits even worse.

Second, toxic assets are still piling up in the U.S. banking system. Three new waves of defaults in adjustable-rate mortgages — each larger than the previous one — are still bearing down on us.

Third, unemployment is approaching depression-era levels and still rising.

Fourth, corporate and personal bankruptcies are off the charts and also still rising.

Fifth, the finances of our state and local governments are still a mess. Their tax revenues are plunging. Their costs to fund social safety nets are surging. Their deficits are exploding.

All of these very dangerous fundamentals are still in place, just as we've told you. But two forces have been introduced into the mix.

Force#1 is a short-term shift in investor psychology: Washington has been able to temporarily tamp down the FEAR on Wall Street.

It took a heck of a lot more money than they had imagined would ever be needed — trillions in spending and lending, trillions more in guarantees. And while none of this does a single thing to correct the nation's underlying problems with excess debt, they have had a positive impact on investor confidence — for now.

For now at least, they have been able to smother the fires that just a few months ago were burning out of control.

At the same time, they have convinced many investors to resume taking RISK. And in the case of some major investors, like big investment banks, we see more risk-taking now than at any time in history.

Goldman Sachs is a prime example. Emboldened by the belief that big banks are "too big to fail" — Goldman is now taking double the risk it was taking before this crisis began.

In short, although our leaders have done virtually nothing to solve the fundamental problems that caused this crisis, Washington does seem to have bought some time.

How much time? That remains to be seen.

But for some clues, we've taken a closer look at Japan's "lost decade" of the 1990s....."

CRIMINAL BACKGROUND CHECK

Two Ga. officers suspended over Obama background check

In DeKalb County, Ga., police officers Ryan White and C.M. Route were suspended while their department investigates allegations that they used a county computer system in their squad car to run a background check on President Obama.

According to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, the Secret Service notified the local department about the background check, conducted on July 20 about 4:40 a.m.

Public Safety Director William "Miz" Miller was not amused.

"I want everyone to know that we take these allegations very seriously," he said in a statement. "We expect our officers to adhere to professional standards and departmental policy. Furthermore, we do not and will not condone the inappropriate use of county equipment or resources."


Specially considering THIS:


July 29, 2009




By Joe Kovacs
© 2009 WorldNetDaily


TheObamaFile.com, an extensive information depot questioning Barack Obama's eligibility to hold the office of president, has vanished off the Internet, and its publisher believes the political end is also near for the commander in chief.

"This guy is coming down, there's nothing anybody can do about it," declares Parker Shannon, a 70-year-old retiree who has documented alleged violations by Obama for the past two years from his home in suburban Boston.

But Shannon stresses his decision to shut down the site had nothing to do with any kind of pressure from the government.

"The Obama camp didn't get to me. They can't," he told WND. "What got to me is my fellow Americans, the cheap bastards."

Tell Obama you don't buy his state-run media coverup! Join the campaign for truth!

"I'm disappointed," he said, explaining he lives on Social Security and a small amount of retirement money. "I just am tired of doing what I'm doing, and I get 50 e-mails a day telling me I'm a great patriot and they're praying for me. I don't want to hear it. Just send me $10."

Shannon says he spent 60 to 70 hours a week on his efforts and received only $240 in the entire two years despite displaying prominent donation buttons. The home page now just has a logo and the words, "Closed. Lack of support."

"There was no warning. This is freaky scary. " said Tony Licursi of Kennesaw, Ga., of the sudden shutdown. "There was more info there than [Roman historian] Tacitus could've ever dreamed."





Shannon says he decided to pull the plug on the Obama File after celebrating his 70th birthday last night, and he is now going to reassess what to do with his reams of information, including the possibility of writing a book.

"I've got more stuff on Obama than anybody on the planet. I'm not gonna let it go to waste," he said, adding, "I'm not doing it for free anymore."

Shannon's site didn't claim Obama is not an American citizen. In fact, it clearly stated, "Obama is a citizen. He's just not a natural born citizen."

The phrase "natural born citizen" is key, because the Constitution, Article 2, Section 1, states, "No Person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President."

Shannon featured charts and quotes from Congress on his page claiming a person needs to have both parents as U.S. citizens to be considered a "natural born" citizen, as opposed to just being born in the U.S., which would make someone a "native born" citizen.


This chart published by the Obama File attempts to clarify the differences between a citizen, a native-born citizen, and a natural-born citizen.

His site explained: "Obama is not a 'natural born citizen' because his father was a Kenyan national and a British subject. To be a natural born citizen, a person's parents must BOTH be citizens of the United States of America. Further, that person must be born in the United States."


Parker Shannon of the Obama File highlighted excerpts from the 1st U.S. Congress in his effort to demonstrate a natural born citizen must be the child of two U.S. citizens.

The precise meaning of the phrase is in legal dispute, with some constitutional scholars such as Prof. Jack Chin of the University of Arizona telling WND, "It doesn't have anything to do with who your parents are."

Chin, who argued 2008 Republican candidate John McCain was not a natural born citizen due to a glitch in the law when the senator was born in the Panama Canal Zone in 1936, believes children of foreigners who are not diplomats can actually be candidates for the highest office in America as long as they're born on U.S. soil.

"Absolutely," Chin said. "They can run for president."

Shannon also claims a widely circulated image of a Certification of Live Birth often touted by the White House and some members of the national media as proof Obama was born in Hawaii is a forgery.

He cites as just one example the use of the term "African" to describe the race of Obama's father on the COLB.


Parker Shannon of the Obama File says the use of the word "African" to denote the race of President Obama's father is evidence the Certification of Live Birth touted by the Obama camp is actually a forgery.

"There is a narrow list of [acceptable] words, none of which are 'African,' which is what is on the Certification of Live Birth. Whatever [expletive deleted] liberal counterfeited the thing couldn't bring himself to say 'Negro.'"

Indeed, a 1961 summary of U.S. vital statistics by the Department of Health, Education and Welfare (now known as Health and Human Services) indicates:

Births in the United States in 1961 are classified for vital statistics into white, Negro, American Indian, Chinese, Japanese, Aleut, Eskimo, Hawaiian and Part-Hawaiian (combined), and "other nonwhite." The category "white" includes, in addition to persons reported as "white," those reported as Mexican or Puerto Rican. With one exception, a reported mixture of Negro with any other race is included in the Negro group; other mixed parentage is classified according to the race of the nonwhite parent and mixtures of nonwhite races to the race of the father.

Many people remain unaware that someone doesn't even have to be born in Hawaii to receive a COLB, as those birth documents can be granted to children born out of state or even America.

To date, Obama has steadfastly refused to release his long-form hospital-generated birth certificate including details such as the name of his birth hospital and attending physician.

But his original birth certificate is not the only document at issue. WND has reported that among the documentation not yet available for Obama are his kindergarten records, Punahou school records, Occidental College records, Columbia University records, Columbia thesis, Harvard Law School records, Harvard Law Review articles,  scholarly articles from the University of Chicago, passport, medical records, files from his years as an Illinois state senator, Illinois State Bar Association records, any baptism records and adoption records.

See the DVD movie Obama doesn't want you to see: Get the 1st documentary on presidential eligibility

Shannon expects the process of removing all pages from his site to take several days, but he expects the information revealed to this point will lead to the political demise of Obama.

"It's out in the open now. It's viral, as they say, on the Internet," he said. "The game's afoot, there's enough guys out there that have entered the fray. Nature will take it's course.

"I just wonder when the world is gonna discover the son of a b-tch is a communist."

Within three hours of WND posting this article, Shannon posted a few paragraphs of explanation on the Obama File.

He concluded by stating: "This isn't about money. I do not want any contributions at this point. If you send me any money, I will just send it back – and I'll pay the PayPal fee – costing me more money.

"I realize I sound bitchy, but I'm discouraged – yeah, and angry. You want me to fight the fight, but you don't want to give me any bullets. I'm done. I'm going to the beach."

Black Bishop Explains The Sources of Obama's Anti-Israel Policy



>The Sources of Obama's Anti-Israel Policy

A Reader comment on item: Barack Obama and Islam: An Ongoing Saga

Submitted by Bishop E. W. Jackson Sr. *

June 16, 2009

Like Obama, I am a graduate of Harvard Law School. I too have Muslims in my family. I am black, and I was once a leftist Democrat. Since our backgrounds are somewhat similar, I perceive something in Obama's policy toward Israel which people without that background may not see. All my life I have witnessed a strain of anti-Semitism in the black community. It has been fueled by the rise of the Nation of Islam and Louis Farrakhan, but it predates that organization.

We heard it in Jesse Jackson's "HYMIE town" remark years ago during his presidential campaign. We heard it most recently in Jeremiah Wright's remark about "them Jews" not allowing Obama to speak with him. I hear it from my own Muslim family members who see the problem in the Middle East as a "Jew" problem.

Growing up in a small, predominantly black urban community in Pennsylvania, I heard the comments about Jewish shop owners. They were "greedy cheaters" who could not be trusted, according to my family and others in the neighborhood I was too young to understand what it means to be Jewish, or know that I was hearing anti-Semitism. These people seemed nice enough to me, but others said they were "evil". Sadly, this bigotry has yet to be eradicated from the black community.

In Chicago, the anti-Jewish sentiment among black people is even more pronounced because of the direct influence of Farrakhan and the Nation of Islam. Most African Americans are not followers of "The Nation," but many have a quiet respect for its leader because, they say, "he speaks the truth" and "stands up for the black man." What they mean of course is that he viciously attacks the perceived "enemies" of the black community – white people and Jews. Even some self-described Christians buy into his demagoguery.

The question is whether Obama, given his Muslim roots and experience in Farrakhan's Chicago, shares this antipathy for Israel and Jewish people. Is there any evidence that he does. First, the President was taught for twenty years by a virulent anti-Semite, the Reverend Jeremiah Wright. In the black community it is called "sitting under."  You don't merely attend a church, you "sit under" a Pastor to be taught and mentored by him. Obama "sat under" Wright for a very long time. He was comfortable enough with Farrakhan – Wright's friend – to attend and help organize his "Million Man March."  I was on C-Span the morning of the march arguing that we must never legitimize a racist and anti-Semite, no matter what "good" he claims to be doing. Yet our future President was in the crowd giving Farrakhan his enthusiastic support.

The classic left wing view is that Israel is the oppressive occupier, and the Palestinians are Israel's victims. Obama is clearly sympathetic to this view. In speaking to the "Muslim World," he did not address the widespread Islamic hatred of Jews. Instead he attacked Israel over the growth of West Bank settlements. Surely he knows that settlements are not the crux of the problem. The absolute refusal of the Palestinians to accept Israel's right to exist as a Jewish state is the insurmountable obstacle. That's where the pressure needs to be placed, but this President sees it differently. He also made the preposterous comparison of the Holocaust to Palestinian "dislocation."

Obama clearly has Muslim sensibilities. He sees the world and Israel from a Muslim perspective. His construct of "The Muslim World" is unique in modern diplomacy. It is said that only The Muslim Brotherhood and other radical elements of the religion use that concept. It is a call to unify Muslims around the world. It is rather odd to hear an American President use it. In doing so he reveals more about his thinking than he intends. The dramatic policy reversal of joining the unrelentingly ant-Semitic, anti-Israel and pro-Islamic UN Human Rights Council is in keeping with the President's truest – albeit undeclared – sensibilities

Those who are paying attention and thinking about these issues do not find it unreasonable to consider that President Obama is influenced by a strain of anti-Semitism picked up from the black community, his leftist friends and colleagues, his Muslim associations and his long period of mentorship under Jeremiah Wright. If this conclusion is accurate, Israel has some dark days ahead. For the first time in her history, she may find the President of the United States siding with her enemies. Those who believe as I do that Israel must be protected had better be ready for the fight. We are.

NEVER AGAIN!

A MESSAGE FOR OUR VATICAN FRIENDS - WHO I NOTICED READ THIS BLOG ONCE IN A WHILE - INCLUDING LAST NIGHT, TISHA BE'AV


Romans,

I have a message for you:

You think you can use the power of numbers, GEMATRIA, which was discovered by our great sages, our Chachamim, our Mekubalim,  to overcome the Nation of Israel, and therefore the God of Israel.

Don't think that I did not notice your abundant use of the numbers 8, 80, 800, 8,000 and 80, 000 in your fight against my people, Israel. I also know what those numbers represent, and their Kabbalistic power. I am aware of the very name of your leader,  PAPA, twice the letter P, which is 80 and 800.

I noticed how you sent your delegate, Jesuit James Jones, on the 8th day of the month of Av, to vanquish Israel, hoping to benefit from this terribly difficult period for the People of Israel, as you already have done many times throughout the ages - the sacking of Jerusalem by Rome, the expulsion from Spain, the Holocaust,  the expulsion from Gush Katif, etc.

As the prophet Jeremiah says, in his book of Lamentations, these events are directed by God Himself. He allowed you to commit these terrible crimes; but at the end of days, HE will punish you all the more severely for what you have done to His nation, the people of Israel.

Lamentations, I-5:

HER ADVERSARIES HAVE BECOME HER MASTER, HER ENEMIES ARE AT EASE, FOR HASHEM HAS AGGRIEVED HER FOR HER ABUNDANT TRANSGRESSIONS...

And when God so chooses, He can overturn your power in an instant. Remember Pharaoh and the Exodus.

Remember the 800 dogs that drowned in the Tiber River,

Remember all the churches flattened in Abruzzo Erev Pessach, as we were BLESSING THE SUN - Birchat Hachamah -, on the night of the 8th of April, and as you were plotting against Zion,

And now,know that ON THIS VERY TISHA BE'AV day, which you know very well and use to the hilt, GOD Himself has caused the COMPLETION OF 80 NATIONS to come and read what I write on this blog, whereas on the 17th of Tammuz, the first day of our three weeks of mourning, the total was 70 NATIONS.

Maybe there is a message for you here?

Maybe THIS Tisha Be'Av will be the beginning of our redemption.

Remember, on Rosh Chodesh Av of this year, the LONGEST SOLAR ECLIPSE OF THE CENTURY TOOK PLACE.

A SOLAR ECLIPSE IS A GOOD OMEN FOR ISRAEL, AND A BAD OMEN FOR THE NATIONS: THAT IS YOU, THE POPE'S PEOPLE, AS HEAD OF THE 'UNITED' NATIONS. EVEN THE SUN AND THE MOON PROCLAIM YOUR DOWNFALL.

Tonight, at 5:30 PM, the PEOPLE OF ISRAEL WILL BUILD THE ALTAR FOR SACRIFICES TO GOD IN OUR HOLY TEMPLE, MAY IT SPEEDILY BE REBUILT IN OUR DAYS.

MAY THIS BE THE BEGINNING OF OUR REDEMPTION, AND THE BEGINNING OF YOUR DOWNFALL.

If GOD SO CHOOSES, HE CAN USE THE NUMBERS, 8, 80, 800, 8,000, and 80,000 AGAINST YOU TOO, YOU KNOW.

Signed off,

DS

Touring and Connecting Between Past Present and Future



THE OBAMA DECEPTION - WHO IS HE REALLY WORKING FOR?




Sent by Jack, with following caption:

Here is a video presentation laying out copious facts and observations of what I have been telling you for years is going on:

* The US is a one-party system. The Republican "Party" and the Democratic "Party" are merely the two branches of the ruling Money Party. They both work for the same masters.
* Those masters are the global power elite, which has been, until now, a low profile, nearly hidden, de facto world government. This closet world government operates through six main branches: government, the media, the major universities, the major financial institutions, the biggest corporations (“big business”) and multinational institutions, such as the IMF, GATT, the World Bank, etc., with the four top think tanks (CFR, Chatham House and Trilateral Commission, all meeting together periodically as the Bilderberg Group) comprising the nerve center. In probably every country, there are members of a ruling elite who are willing to sell their countries out for a personal place in this world government and a share in world power. That, in all its aspects, is what I call “The Grid.”
* The move to world government has gone public and its proponents have unveiled the image: fascistic control of the world with the world’s people in utter peonage, with no rights, subject to being drafted into labor assignments serving the state.
* The enforcement mechanisms are already in place, complete with detention camps.
* It is necessary to get off the Grid as much as possible in as many ways as possible. If enough people get off the Grid as much as they can soon enough, I believe the Grid will collapse and people will be able to take their countries back.

Watch this video one evening instead of a movie. And then ask about ways to get off the grid.

Jack

Make sure to read the very damning document I posted yesterday:

Rote says:



I remember this -- but remember Tarpley is one of those guys who believe the Jews are running a global drug trade with the Queen of England. He is a LaRouche lackey

http://www.huffingtonpost.com/chip-berlet/antisemitism-islamophobia_b_184904.html

and Alex Jones who narrates this is a complete Jew hating freak who puts Tarpley to shame. Tarpley is also a plagiarist, Compare his work about Bush and Nazi funds to that of Loftus.

I am not saying the Bushrak is great, but Tarpley and Jones deserve nothing more than their character presents, certainly not to acknowledge them because their role is to only demean Jews, The reporting is just a means.

Jack replies:

Tnx for the heads up. I hate quoting things from jerks, even when they are right. I was more interested in the less sensationalistic, more serious, informed and together types he interviewed, particularly interested in Daniel Estulin, who is the one who has been spying, apparently successfully, on the Bilderbergers.


DS comments:

From what I know, the plan is the HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE REVIVED, UNDER LEADERSHIP OF THE GERMAN POPE. Don't forget that the Queen of England is a SUBALTERN OF THE POPE , remember the Order of the Golden Fleece, and how King Juan Carlos, the pope's right hand man, is the leader. Therefore if these ANGLO-SAXONS are attempting to take over the world, my question is, FOR WHOM ARE THEY WORKING?. Just like the movie asked for whom Obama is working, I am asking the same question about them. These are obviously people of enormous power, but are they THE head power of the gang? And don't forget the OVERLAPPING IDEOLOGIES OF OBAMA'S AND BENEDIKT's, as we clearly saw. Obama is also the LACKEY OF ROME.

I hope Eric Phelps has an answer to this question.

Furthermore, in Megillat Eichah, which we just read for Tisha Be'Av, written by the prophet Yirmiyahu, Jeremiah, he says: I-5:

Hayu Tsareiha Lerosh: Her adversaries have become her master (a head)....( Artscroll)...the Alshich notes that Rosh is singular, whereas Tsareiha, her adversaries, is plural. He explains that Israel's enemies - nations that historically , had differences among themselves - now combined. He translates thus: The adversaries of Israel placed ONE CHIEF over themselves, combining forces UNDER ONE COMMAND to combat Israel.....

And knowing that words of the prophets are forever.....

Another Tisha Be'AV nightmare: read this column of Barry Chamish carefully: he is RIGHT, ALL THE WAY; CRY FOR JERUSALEM AND PRAY FOR JERUSALEM: ONLY G-D CAN GET US OUT OF THIS NIGHTMARE; IF I FORGET THEE, OH JERUSALEM....


PS: Review my article ON THE BLOG: " PERFECT CRIME: THE VATICAN'S PLOT TO ROB ISRAEL OF JERUSALEM". WHICH GOES IN GREAT DETAILS INTO THE WHOLE DISGUSTING PLAN ENDORSED BY OUR VERY OWN 'LEADERS'- NOT-

http://israeltruthtimes.blogspot.com/2009/03/perfect-crime-vaticans-plot-to-rob-am_31.html

                                                                THE FINAL JERUSALEM PLAN...FOR THE UMPTEENTH TIME...AGAIN
                              
                                                                          by Barry Chamish

     
So in a four day span in late July, the US sent four insiders to force Israel into freezing home construction in its own land and capital. Naturally, the Obama administration announced that four bigwigs landing in barely half a week was just a "co-incidence." No pressure...just blatant deceit and lying.
      Let us, once more, make the obvious observation.
      George Mitchell, US Envoy to the Middle East, lands in Syria on Sunday before travelling to Israel and, SHOCK!!!:
     
DAMASCUS, July 27 (KUNA - Kuwait News Agency) -- Syrian Ambassador to the
United States, Imad Mustafa said Monday that the US had lifted the ban
imposed on exporting goods to the Syrian aviation industry.
     
       Mitchell is a member of the Council On Foreign Relations (CFR). Google it yourself.
       On Monday, Defense Secretary Robert Gates (CFR member) enjoyed his stay and threats in Jerusalem.
       He was followed the next day by National Security Advisor Gen. James Jones, a member of the Tri-Lateral Commission.
       And on Wednesday, token Jew boy, Dennis Ross of the Tri-Lateral Commission, arrived to prove that a Jew is behind the "administration's" plans. Like they started with Obama. In fact, they began many lunatics before.

    Thank goodness Obama was elected. McCain (CFR) would have been called "the best President Israel ever had" while doing the same thing. But almost every Israeli opposes Obama, even the peace-loving left:

http://www.jpost.com/servlet/Satellite?cid=1248277865525&pagename=JPAr

What is genuinely puzzling, however, is why Obama supporters appear
equally deaf to the anguished cries of Israel's left, which has long
advocated precisely these policies. When the editorial staff of
Haaretz, a bastion of Israel's hard left, pens three opinion pieces
criticizing Obama in the space of 10 days, it ought to be clear even
to left-of-center American Jews that Obama has an Israel problem.

    O
n the ground, note the upwell of sudden opposition against Barack Hussein! He wants to stop completion of 20 Jewish apartments in Israel's capital neighborhood of Sheikh Jarrah, and the whole country responds against him. After all, who is he to tell us, where to live in Jerusalem? Why don't we tell him where to live in Washington? So, 1000 people, of a group not infiltrated  by the government,  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H27TUyXm8HQ&feature=PlayList&p=158435502B0D6AAA&index=0&playnext=1    organize an anti-American protest before the bigshots arrive.
        
Demonstration in Jerusalem this Monday 27 July
On the day Mitchell is arriving...6:30 PM at Paris Square, near PM's house. Approximately 8 PM -- march to American Consulate on Agron Street.

Calling on Israel to simply say "no" to US pressure to freeze
settlement activity and to divide the capital, close to a thousand
people rallied outside Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu's Jerusalem
home Monday evening.

"People tell us that it is impossible to stand up against American
pressure; there is no bigger lie," yelled out Dani Dayan, who heads
the Council of Jewish Communities of Judea, Samaria and the Gaza
Strip, which helped to organize the event. It was timed to coincide
with US envoy George Mitchell's visit to Israel.


     Now look at the influence Obama is having. According to the government, since his election, not counting Jerusalem, the settler population rose from 280,000 to 300,000. In 6 months, the price of a 3 room apartment in Maaleh Adumim, rose from $215,000 to $244,000. All because of new demand.
     Bless OBAMA!

    
Because here is the goal of his superiors, which according to superficial, uninformed and ignorant mass Israeli "thinking," must be his intentions:


JERUSALEM, July 24 (UPI) -- An Israeli-Palestinian document stipulates travel routes, security measures and final borders for a Palestinian state, an Israeli paper said.
The document published in Yedioth Aharonoth Friday reveals for the first time plans for a gradual Israeli withdrawal from the West Bank in a 30-month period, travel restrictions for Israelis and Palestinians, security arrangements and details of the final borders.

Three West Bank highways will be designated for sole Israeli use. Motorists will not have to carry passports but will be provided with a GPS tracking system and panic button for the trip, the paper said. A motorist who strays from the designated route and enters a Palestinian controlled area, will be arrested by members of a multinational force, and returned to Israel to stand trial, the paper said.

The document was completed in recent months by a joint Israeli-Palestinian team, and made available this week to U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and U.S. Middle East envoy Gen. Jim Jones, the paper said.

Palestinians and Israelis will be able to enter Jerusalem's Old City without carrying passports. A multinational force stationed in the Old City will be on hand to enforce law and order, and will have the power to make arrests, the paper said. A separate multinational force will be deployed on the Temple Mount.

    
Don't you just love it? Israel's largest Israeli newspaper by far, reports that the Obama/Clinton (husband CFR)/Jones plan is to divide Jerusalem and make the settlers live in a Kafka nightmare. And I add, the Palestinians are in the same terrifying dream, but they get a state capital in Jerusalem out of it. For them, it's a terrific reverie. Once they achieve their dreamland:

http://www.ynetnews.com/articles/0,7340,L-3750930,00.html

As the Fatah movement prepares for its upcoming leadership convention, a
senior group member says the event will be used to display Fatah's
commitment to the armed struggle against Israel.

Preparations for the convention, scheduled for August 4, are in full force
at this time. During a series of preliminary meetings ahead of the event,
senior Fatah official Rafik al-Natsheh said that the group will not be
recognizing Israel.

     To those who know my work, this is boring. I've repeated the real plan since December of 1993, time after time, over and over, unending, non-stop:

From my book Save Israel:
  1. www. lulu .com/content/517809
In March 1994, the newspaper Chadashot revealed a most remarkable secret of the Middle East "peace" process. A friend of Shimon Peres, the French intellectual Marek Halter, claimed in an interview that in May 1993, he delivered a letter from Peres to the pope. Within, Peres promised to internationalize Jerusalem, granting the UN political control of the Old City of Jerusalem, and the Vatican hegemony of the holy sites within. The UN would give the PLO a capital within its new territory and East Jerusalem would become a kind of free trade zone of world diplomacy.

From the Prez of Israel himself:

Peres Raises 'World Capital' Solution for Jerusalem
JERUSALEM (Reuters) - Shimon Peres, the head of Israel's opposition Labor Party, has suggested resolving Israeli-Palestinian conflict over Jerusalem by putting its holy sites under U.N. stewardship, a spokesman said Tuesday.
His plan calls for declaring a holy area of sites sacred to Jews, Christians and Muslims in Jerusalem's old walled city as a "world capital," with the U.N. Secretary-General serving as mayor, Peres' spokesman Yoram Dori told Reuters.
Israel claims Jerusalem as its capital, including the Arab eastern part captured in the 1967 Middle East War and annexed in a move that is not recognized internationally. Palestinians want to make East Jerusalem capital of the state they hope to establish in the West Bank and Gaza Strip (
news - web sites) under a U.S.-backed peace plan.

      Still, as Israelis apply for passports to travel on their own roads, and get GPS apparati shoved down their throats, or, refusing this, be arrested by international troops in their land...
And while these troops guard the Old City of Jerusalem, ready to arrest and hold them for any infraction...And while more of these troops guard their ancient Temple, ready to pounce for all pretexts...
      Israelis still reject who these "Americans" are. They just know something is wrong, and anyone, namely me, who dares tell them the facts is ridiculed, because somehow, this insanity has a good explanation.
      Which must be anything but heavily researched fact.
