[political-research] The Israel Lobby's Systematic Deformation of American Foreign Policy

[How the Israel lobby is destroying the Republican and Democratic Parties and driving America towards a one-party fascist state: the Zionist War Party of America.]
 
[Out of one side of its mouth, the Israel lobby is angrily denying that it exists; out of the other side of its mouth it is conspicuously demanding that the United States attack Iran -- a stupefyingly self-contradictory and absurd performance.]
 
[Vector: Israel lobby > Rahm Emanuel > Democratic Party > World War IV]
 
Kevin Zeese interviews Norman Birnbaum in the LA Chronicle:
 
 
[Excerpt]
 
KZ: You've been involved in national security matters for four decades, do you see the Iraq occupation making Americans more or less secure? Is the Iraq occupation a useful approach to fighting the war on terror?

NB: I consider the term War on Terror misleading, since it isn't war in any usual sense---and the danger has been grotesquely exaggerated. This nation is to be mortally threatened by a gang of Islamic fanatics living in caves in the border area, Afghanistan-Pakistan?

The War on Terror like the Cold War has become a public works project of gigantic dimensions (we could use instead a construction project for urban public transport and high speed rail between our cities) for a new terror-industrial complex, for charlatans of every sort like those "terror" experts who disfigure our television screens. It has also become a convenient instrument for the Israel Lobby to pursue its systematic deformation of American foreign policy in the short term interest of Israel. (Today, 4 April, the American Jewish Committee in an advertisement called for war on Iran.)

Congressman Rahm Emanuel, who served in the Israel army, has been active in trying to block the opponents of the Iraq war in the Democratic Party, and it is the support of the Israel lobby for the most aggressive and unilateralist version of American imperialism that has made figures like Senators Clinton and Lieberman and Representative Harman into allies of the President on Iraq.
