Perle has been busted looting millions from Hollinger International with other elder of zion crooks. <<<<<<< If you want to understand the post-9/11 rampage that fairly describes our foreign policy since the twin towers fell, just think of the campaign of lies, scare-mongering, and secret manipulations of "intelligence" as an Israeli covert action. Before they invaded Kurdistan, they had already penetrated Washington and taken over key centers of power: and, when they didn't have the formal authority, they simply went off on their own, as with the Ledeen-Franklin-Ghorbanifar meetings or "Operation Copper Green," the Pentagon's secret army of torturers. Let the neocons scream "McCarthyism!" all they want. Because McCarthy was right – and so are those of us who have been pointing to Israeli subversion of U.S. national security since November of 2001. AIPAC must come clean, or be disbanded. Don't they know there's a war on? Oh, but Israel is our great friend, our closest ally – they're on our side. Are they? The lesson of the Franklin affair is that they aren't. And what about their "American" amen corner? The neocons, for all their "patriotic" bluster, seem unnaturally defensive and militant in their denials that Israel could ever be involved in espionage against the U.S., well before all the evidence is in. Espionage charges against any other nation on earth would not evoke such a passionate defense, and it's ironic that the alleged super-patriots over at National Review and David Horowitz's propaganda mill would so readily man the barricades on behalf of accused spies and foreign agents. This brings to mind an interview with Tom Clancy, best-selling author of spy thrillers, in which he had the following exchange with Deborah Norville on MSNBC: NORVILLE: And Paul Wolfowitz. CLANCY: Is he really on our side? NORVILLE: You genuinely ask that question? Is he on our side? CLANCY: I sat in on – I was in the Pentagon in '01 for a red team operation and he came in and briefed us. And after the brief, I just thought, is he really on our side? Sorry. Clancy sure got that one right – and that pretty well sums up what the Franklin Affair is all about. Writing in the Israeli newspaper Ha'aretz, Ze'ev Schiff relates the following story: "Before former U.S. Central Intelligence Agency head George Tenet retired, he made stinging comments on various occasions to Israeli officials in the intelligence community, especially the Mossad, saying Israel had a spy in America. The accusation was rejected out of hand – Tenet was even loudly challenged to catch any such agent and expose him publicly." Tenet, it seems, has taken up the challenge. And more power to him. So let's hear no more whining from the peanut gallery, no complaints of "McCarthyism" from our fake "conservatives." The Israelis are getting just what they asked for.>>>>>> from antiwar.com/justin/
