Killing 100,000 Israelis a Day
If Saddam Hussein had more biological weapons he would have used them against Israel.
Iraqi dissidents agree that Iraq's programs to build weapons of mass destruction would have been focused on Israel and even though turned out that there were no weapons of mass destruction -- IF they had them is is also certain that Israel was the whole game.
Jeffrey Goldberg of the New Yorker Magazine wrote that Saddam Hussein thought he could "kill one hundred thousand Israelis in a day with biological weapons...." (Jeffrey Goldberg, "The Great Terror", 3/25/02), New Yorker Mag)
It is a good thing he didn't have any!
And to "kill the Jews" is also what Palestinian goons want to do. Former president Jimmy Carter just met with them in Syria. He had a sit down with HAMAS. Their intent is clear, to kill Jews for Allah. All the meetings in the world won't change that. Neither will Obama meeting with the Iranians who are supplying the Shiites in Iraq with weapons which is being used to kill Americans.
Any peace treaty with HAMAS or Hazbullah is only temporary. What they want to do is "Kill the Jews." This isn't what I say, this is what they have said. And, this is what they wanted in 1948 when the Jews had the "audacity" to insist on their historical rights to the land MANY of the Jews were living on at the time. They didn't all come out of Europe and many exiled Jews were kicked out of their homes in the Middle East when they fled to Israel. Half of all Israelis were from Arab countries or always lived in Israel. The other half had to flee for their lives from Europe when nobody else would have them.
Arial Sharon was just a young boy at the time. He was a member of the Haganah and the Jewish Settlement Police when they were not permitted to have guns and had to hide them during the day and dig them up at night.
During the bloodiest battle to take Latrun, a village which blocked the primary road to Jerusalem and there he participated in the first attack and was severely wounded. Sharon was a platoon leader and his platoon was practically wiped out. His own wound was from a bullet he took to the lower abdomen which came out his upper thigh, "the strange trajectory explained by the fact that the Jordanians had been firing down at us. Although I had lost a lot of blood, I would eventually recover." (Arial Sharon with David Chanoff, "An Autobiography: Warrior" - 89 with new forward and edition of 2001)
"Around noon the Jordanians on the hill intensified their fire, the usual forerunner of another assault. Raising myself up to see what was happening, I felt something thud into my belly, knocking me back. I heard my mouth say "imah" --mother, and the instant it was out I glanced around to see if anybody had heard. Already blood was seeping through my shirt and my shorts, where another wound in my thigh had appeared as if by magic. I lay down, still lucid, but feeling my strength ebbing away." (Sharon)
Arial, just 19, managed to lead his platoon; that is, those still alive to safety before passing out from his loss of blood. He literally crawled out across rocky terraced hills and gullys with blood gushing from his wounds for several miles.
Lots of Israelis gave their blood so Jews could survive in Eretz Yisrael. Many gave their lives so they could live where they wanted to live and now George Bush says Israel must get out of the settlements in the territories. He says Israelis must leave the territories; even places like Hebron which are inextricably linked Jewish history. He says, there must be a Palestinian state.
George Bush doesn't understand the Arab mind. He doesn't understand the intention of Arab states toward Israel and he didn't understand that Arafat and his predecessor, especially HAMAS doesn't intend to ever make peace with Jews.
Islam is a CULTURE
that hates the Jews
The truth is there are some moderate secular Muslims, but the culture of Islam is not moderate and it is fueled by hatred for Jews and disdain for Western modernity. Fundamentalists in all religions are anti-modern and a threat to civilization. That includes Judaism and Christianity as well. But Islam has never modernized. There is only Islamic fundamentalism. The only exception are secularists who are considered apostates for which the Koran prescribes death.
"I don't think we should be sending diplomats to the Middle East. I think we should be sending teams of psychiatrists. This is a diseased culture, a sick culture. Go back to that (recent) disgraceful recycling of the Blood Libel in the Saudi press..." (John Derbyshire, "KILL A JEW FOR ALLAH" - National Review Online.
"There was no such thing as settlements, no such thing as "occupied territories," before the 1967 war. There were no such things in 1960, for example, when Adolf Eichmann was abducted from his hiding-hole in Buenos Aires by Israeli secret agents, an event recorded by Saudi Arabia's principal government-controlled newspaper as: "ARREST OF EICHMANN, WHO HAD THE HONOR OF KILLING 6 MILLION JEWS". The problem of the Middle East is not the settlements. It is not this piece of land or that piece. It is not the Golan Heights or East Jerusalem or Temple Mount. It is not oil, or land, or water, or history, or geography, or metaphysics. The problem is in plain sight. You know what the problem is, and so do I. The problem is that the Middle East hates the Jews." (Derbyshire)
"I say "the Middle East" because I don't know any more precise way to say "it. You can't say "the Arabs" (though of course the Arabs hate the Jews "more than anyone), because the Iranians and the Pakistanis and the Berbers of North Africa hate the Jews too, and they are not Arabs. You can't say "the Muslims". That is a lot closer, I think, and there surely cannot be much doubt that institutional Islam is riddled with Jew-hatred. Still, Malaysia is a Muslim country, and they don't hate the Jews, except in a go-along, pro forma sort of way, to keep on good terms with the Saudis and Gulf Emirs." (Derbyshire)
PA Funding Terrorism
The Israeli government released the evidence, as they often did, of documents discovered at PLO offices which clearly show that Arafat approved payments to terrorists, even as he was lying to the global community and to Israel about wanting peace.
"One document, dated January 7, 2002, is a request for payment from the head of the Fatah-Tanzim terrorist cell in Tulkarm on the West Bank, a man named Raed al-Karmi who had publicly admitted taking part in attacks on Israeli soldiers and civilians. In the document, he asks for payment to 12 Fatah terrorists under his command. The request was sent to Marwan Barghouti, head of Fatah's West Bank organization, and one of the leading organizers of suicide bombings against Israeli civilians. The document shows that Barghouti passed the request to Arafat with a note asking him "to order the allocation of $1,000 for each of the fighter brethren." At the bottom of the document is a note in Arafat's handwriting: "Please allocate $350 to each." Then Arafat's signature." ("Lost in the Wilderness"- (April 22, 2002 issue: "The Middle East gets worse and worse for the administration")
"In another document, dated September 19, 2001, a senior Fatah leader asks Arafat to approve payment of $2,500 to Karmi and two other terrorists: Ziad Muhammad Daas and Amar Qadan. As the Jerusalem Post reports, Daas commands the Fatah-Tanzim cell that carried out the massacre of Israelis celebrating a bat mitzvah in January 2002. Qadan is a terrorist chief in Ramallah. Again, there is a note from Arafat: `allocate $600 to each of them.'" (ibid)
"There is more. Documents found in the office of Arafat's financial director, Fuad Shubaki, show the Al Aksa Martyrs Brigades requesting funds for electrical components and chemicals used in suicide bombs. One memo is dated September 16, 2001. As the New York Times's Michael R. Gordon notes, "Suicide bombings by the Aksa Brigades began in November" 2001. Gordon also reports that Israeli military officials have uncovered significant evidence showing that the Palestinian Authority's preventive security office--which is supposed to be responsible for cracking down on terrorism in the territories--is itself linked to suicide bombings. Israeli forces discovered mortars, heavy machine guns, yarmulkes, and "other disguises for suicide bombers" in the headquarters of Jabril Rajoub, the head of the security office. A former head of the Middle East division of the Defense Intelligence Agency told Gordon that the Palestinian Authority's security office is `likely part of the problem.'" (ibid)
The Arab/Islamic culture which promotes hate for Jews must change before there can be peace.
Since we're about truth, the truth is all religions are essentially about "exclusivity" and all of them were born in conflict which still today results in death and conquest blessed by mythical gods. Dawkins and others who are now challenging religious intolerance are right and religion is a scourge we can no longer allow to dominate civilized societies. If the world is ever going to experience peace and tolerance the supernatural must be jettisoned once and for all.
"Evolved from man's primal, animal origins, human psychology has clearly retained instincts of violence as a necessary tool of survival. Rather than channel these instincts into constructive social purposes, religion has used them as its sustenance, cultivating them in the loam of higher purpose but directing them to aggressive and manipulating them for the maintenance of illegitimate rule." (Charles W. Sutherland, Disciples of Destruction, The Religious Origins of War and Terrorism)
George Bush is not much of a reader or a thinker. He likes to be told about things which are happening around him and what to think. And his words and actions would indicate his concerns are less about terrorism and more about satisfying "friends" who support terrorism. Whatever happened to the president who said, "friends of our enemies are our enemies" and a president who claimed to be the anti-terrorism president? It still smells like the same old oil interests and New World Odor with ARAMCO, Bechtel, the CIA and Saudi connection on the Arab side of the ledger. The proximity of George Bush, the father, to oil interest was obvious. The proximity of the son to those same interests are also becoming obvious.

While I don't use a standard blog (weblog software) mostly because I've been doing this too long - having been there with Ike when the precursor to the Internet, Arpanet got started and every step of the way since, I can't get into all the many fads over the years (now it is social networking), but I have been an observer and participant in events which shape the world since my time with NSA and with Army Security and as a voice security cryptologist in the White House for the President, and the War Room at the Pentagon for the Chairman of the Chiefs of Staff plus two wars. You could say this site is one of the better kept secrets [grin] on the InterNUT. You are invited back as often as you would like to see what I and others, I trust, may be saying.
