I should think it is clear the world is in a state of constant war. What is called peace is but a time out for more plotting. These time outs allow the masses to drop their load, and be programmed for the next set of trials. The further conquest of the Levant and S.W. Asia is so ambitious that all whitish leaders are lining up for a real team effort. I will further guess that the nuclear genie is so near to out of the bottle that action sooner than later is likely. Having spent so long in this death cult, it is plausible that risk assessment is faulty. I will conclude with my favorite 50′s joke. Teacher- In case of a nuclear attack, hit the floor, under the desk with your head between your knees.Johnny what do you do in event of attack? Johnny- I go under my desk with my head between my knees and kiss my ass goodbye.

kalidas, it’s a typo. What the Rightwing pathocrats are really parroting is ‘Fee World’, ‘Fee World’, and ‘Land of the Brave (oh the mirth!) and Home of the Fee’.

‘You are right. No Iranian who knows the history of Russia in Iran trust Russia. Iran and the US are natural allies but due to tide grips of jewish lobby over the foreign policy of the United State,’

idiot, US and Iran are what? Mossadegh must be rolling in his gfrave at thagt malarky! Russia is by far the better friend for Iran than US, jew controlled or not. US not russia overthrew Mossadegh and imposed the shah!

Has the IAEA ever visited Dimona??

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bbjgDERSuiI

Did the govts of australia, US, UK etc walk out of Netanyahoos speech,where he says things like:

‘Netanyahu also scorned the Human Rights Council report on the Gaza invasion, saying the UN Human Rights Council is “a misnamed institution if there ever was one.” The Goldstone report said Israel carried out war crimes in its invasion of Gaza. Netanyahu said the UN has been in “free fall” ever since its 1975 resolution equating Zionism with racism. Netanyahu called on the UN to reject the Goldstone report.

Netanyahu defended Israel’s actions in Gaza by equating them with the Allied bombing of Germany after the Nazis launched rockets on British cities.’

This is brazen, and he gets away with it because of the control israel has of western govts.
has anyone bothered to tell him Gaza is a concentration camp? Palestinians as nazis???

deceitceski could bring any proof from history ,there is a version of history which explains the justice of Zionists since 5770 years ago until now.A sample of how is written history we see in front of our eyes how Iran is accused by the righteous Occident of deception regarding her nuclear technology intention while “Despite the endless list of officials in the Bush and Obama Administrations who have presented Iran’s nuclear weapons program as something known with absolute certainty, top members of the US intelligence community have said as recently as last week that they in fact believe with high confidence that Iran doesn’t have an active nuclear weapons program.”
In the Haaretz of today is a sample of enough way in which history is written and that with the contribution of Benzion Nethaniahu,the Bibi’ s father:”A long time before Bibi there was one B.G. Ben-Gurion’s diary documents, in his writing, a meeting with Benzion Netanyahu, Bibi’s father, in mid-November 1956, following Israel’s conquest of the Gaza Strip and Sinai in the war. Ben-Gurion was dizzy with excitement and declared the start of Israel’s Third Kingdom. U.S. president Dwight Eisenhower brought him down to earth in one fell swoop.

Ben-Gurion wrote: “At 5, Netanyahu came over, editor of the encyclopedia. He had told me earlier that he had no personal intent or purpose for coming over, nor a party-related motive. Since the establishment of the state, he had left the Revisionist party. Between 1940 and 1948 he was in the U.S. and ran the propaganda operation of the New Zionist Organization. Fear of Russia had not yet emerged, but in certain circles they were already feeling the Russian threat. He spoke of a vacuum in the Mideast, and the threat of Soviet penetration, and explained the significance of Zionism. He believes that our public relations mechanism in the U.S. is weak and he is offering his services. He will get a year’s leave from the encyclopedia. His cover will be that he will be lecturing at some university. His subject is Jewish history. He wrote a book on Abarbanel.”
“We must set up a non-Jewish team, among the most important authors, journalists, congressmen. We need to buy those who hate us – or at least we can make them neutral. For the first half year there might be a need for about a quarter million dollars. Later he will find money in America itself. There is no point in appearing before Zionist Jews. It is Americans that are needed and it is important that this organization would not be felt to have ties to Israel, but in practice it must be answerable to the Prime Minister’s Office. Because propaganda needs to be adjusted according to policy.

“I said that I do not agree with all his comments, and that a great deal has been done in rallying public support, and that the U.S. government has assisted us a great deal since the establishment of the state, but that there is a need to step up activities, and that I would give him an answer in a week.”

Salvation for USA they posted that comment and that last sentence in your comment was an interesting thought. If we see in just the next few months just more foolishness and in 2012 Palin or HucKabee you know people of great wisdom become the leader of the free World not much else will matters now does it. A little fact I am sure a few don’t want on the Nightly News. Have a cup of coffee we will work together on this.

Great article Kim. I think the timing of this by the U.S, Britain, and France was to shift the focus away from the Goldstone report. What more evidence can their be of the strength and power of Zionism’s influence on Middle East policy. This racist ideology needs a real rejection and a real confrontation by ALL citizens.

dane, “Here we have the most flagrant Uncle Tom in history, whose policies and rhetoric are as anti-Black as any downhome Republican politician, but you can’t criticism him without being suspected of bigotry.
From the ZioImperialist point of view, this is what you call an Elegant Solution.”

Perfectly stated!

One of the themes of Ahmadinejad’s speeches is the disproportionate influence that Israel has because of its neo-colonial relationships with several members of the Security Council — while the Islamic world is underreported in even the rotating memberships (currently Turkey and Libya are members). The former empires, for their part, are not happy whenever the young upstarts do things on their own — such as the Goldstone report or the Durban conference. Also, whenever their nuclear hegemony — or that of their proxy states — is threatened, threats and blustering and a circling of the wagons occurs. When was the last time you saw Britain, France, and the U.S. quite as cozy as this week?

No nation that has used nuclear weapons to kill civilians has any moral authority to decide what kind of a weapon system any other nation has.

Great job, KP, congratulations & thanks.

What think re this logic: vicious attacks on Obama from ultra-right fascistoid racists are mobilized by big $$ circles out of a series of motives, one being defense of Big Insurance & Big Pharma, but more importantly, these blatantly racist attacks from the right serve to shield Obama from criticism from the left.
Here we have the most flagrant Uncle Tom in history, whose policies and rhetoric are as anti-Black as any downhome Republican politician, but you can’t criticism him without being suspected of bigotry.

At the first paragraph should be no sanction. I am against sanction. so the lines are:
[I agree with you that we should be choosing the responsible path to prevent another disaster in the region which includes no sanctions.]

Kim Petersen deserves congratulation on his excellent and courageous analysis of the hypocrisy and double standards practiced by the US and its allies, including our Canadian government. Obama and his allies speak of the need for all nations must comply with the Nuclear Non-Proiferation Treaty, but there is not a single word about Israeli defiance of this treaty and its holding stockpiles of hundreds of nuclear weapons. The message we get from all this is that Israel is above international law and its impunity cannot be challenged.

Michael I read that article in the Guardian and went to your web site.

So long as men worship the Caesars and Napoleons, Caesars and Napoleons will duly arise and make them miserable. – Aldous Huxley

Man isn’t that the truth and today now the twenty first century a little more than miserable.

In fact, the Iranians have pulled off yet another brilliant coup! The Polish missile deal was supposed to bring Russian support against Iran. So the Iranians twist the lion’s tail just to show that US/Israel are still alone. Bingo! Russia says nothing and Sarkozy sets the tone for the EU: if nothing is done before December (sic!), there will have to be sanctions! By December, the dust will have settled, the IAEA will have inspected and found nothing illegal and the big debate will be why did the US conceal the existence of this plant for so long. Remember the Cuban missile crisis? All those sharp photos? US spy satellites will have spotted the construction work long ago, so why did the US not blow the whistle BEFORE the plant was built? Were they setting up the Iranians? (Can’t you just hear the CIA guys lying through their teeth about how they “weren’t sure”?) And, of course, the question will then be how much of the whole Iran story is a US set-up?

You are right. No Iranian who knows the history of Russia in Iran trust Russia. Iran and the US are natural allies but due to tide grips of jewish lobby over the foreign policy of the United State,
Iran has been replaced for Russia since Russia and Israel have secret relations pushing for each other’s interest against the interest of other parties. There are many of Russians, non ‘jews’ in the occupied Palestine.
