You'll have heard of Henry Ford's book The International Jew; Major World Problem [last part paraphrased] ... and you'll know what he was on about, much of it was the outsize representation of jews in the various communist movements ... well that situation was a result of jews tending to have developed a nationalism that was broadly internationalist, it spanned borders and jumped ethnic-state limits, it was quite unlike other narrow nationalisms of the post-Napoleon period, and exempt from them, because they had been a long time in all countries, and kept separate from the nations ...

Thank you for that revealing discussion of your sources. Henry Ford was a notorious anti-Semite. He quoted The Protocols of the Elders of Zion a lot too; now, there's a great source if you're looking for material on the "International Jew".

Ironically, one of the driving forces behind Zionism was an effort to get away from all these phoney allegations of secret world-wide cabals by having a country like everybody else. But thanks to people like you...

US to sell bunker bombs to Israel

news.bbc.co.uk

Much of Israel's military equipment is supplied by the US
The US government is proposing a $30m deal selling up to 100 laser-guided bunker-busting bombs to Israel.
The GBU-28 is a 2,000-kg conventional weapon with a powerful warhead that can burrow through six metres (20 feet) of concrete or 30 metres of earth.

The sale has gone ahead despite concern that Israel might use the weapon for a unilateral attack against Iran.

Congress has 30 days to reject planned foreign military sales, but correspondents say it rarely does so.

Israel - assumed to be the Middle East's only nuclear-armed state - says it is not planning a military strike against the Islamic republic.

However, the bombs are to be fitted on its F-15 fighter jets, which would put Iran within range.

Some analysts say the deal may be intended by Washington to back up with a bit of military muscle European diplomatic efforts to avert the prospect of a nuclear-armed Iran.

Talks between the Europeans and Iran are deadlocked over Tehran's refusal to give up uranium enrichment which could be used for arms production.

The US has accused Iran of using its civilian nuclear programme as a cover to develop nuclear weapons, a charge Tehran denies.
