CHILDREN OF KEY ZIONISTS BREAK WITH THE PAST

RICHARD SILVERSTEIN, TUKUN OLAN - You know things are deeply disturbed
in Israel when you see the children of not one, not two, not three, but
four right-wing Zionist political pioneers turn against their fathers'
political legacy. It is not really news that Yigal Arens, son of former
Likud defense minister, Moshe Arens, is a devoted opponent of the
Israeli Occupation. His critics have accused him of once being what they
derisively call a "Matzpenist" which is the equivalent of calling
someone a "dirty Bolshie" here in the States. He may or may not have
been a Matzpen member. To me, Matzpen in its day served a similar role
to the SDS here during the 1960s. . . .

Dana Olmert, Ehud's daughter [attended] a rally during the Lebanon war
in which Dan Halutz was charged with war crimes. That must've caused
some discussion at the family dinner table. . . His daughter really has
to cross some political distance from there to publicly denouncing the
Israeli chief of staff.

For the past several years, Jewish and Palestinian peace activists have
demonstrated every Friday in the village of Bilin, which hugs the
Separation Wall. And every week, the Border Police manage in their
thuggish manner to beat up and injure peaceful protesters. Maariv
reports this week that one of the regular Israeli protesters for the
past two and a half years is another scion of Zion; the grandson of one
of the leading lights of the right-wing nationalist movement, Menachem
Begin. Aminadav Begin, according to the right-wing tabloid, is an
anti-war anarchist who doesn't believe in nations or borders. Imagine
how such a story will play in a nation for whom Menachem Begin is a god
of right-wing Zionism. . .

Finally, Avrum Burg has written a new book, Defeating Hitler (not yet
available in English), which promises to be a bombshell because it
savagely critiques both contemporary Israel and the entire Zionist
enterprise. Burg himself, former Knesset speaker, former Shimon Peres
protege, former Israel Agency director, has left Israel and taken French
citizenship. He has abandoned a family legacy of Zionist commitment. His
father, Yosef Burg, served for decades as party chair of the National
Religious Party. The elder Burg was a German Jew who fled Germany for
Palestine. He always stood for a right-wing religious political agenda,
but was principled in doing so.

>>Al-Qaeda is a front organization of CIA and MOSSAD : Mumbai based group of intellectuals and human rights activists [whoever they are]

The Mumbai based group alleged that Al-Qaeda is a front organization of CIA and MOSSAD. "There is enough evidence that the Al-Qaeda is a front organization of the CIA and MOSSAD. The Bush junta has used the bogey of terror and of Al Qaeda to justify his unending and ever expanding Global War on Terror, which is only a means of capturing the resources of the world and of establishing the sole hegemony of Israel in West Asia," said the group of activists and intellectuals. The group is holding a press conference in Mumbai on Wednesday to "expose the links between Al-Qaeda and the CIA-MOSSAD".

Holding American-Israeli operation accomplices of the 9/11 attack on the WTC, the spokesman of the group said that this has been widely written about in USA and Europe itself and more than 50% of the American people and far more Europeans, now believe and are convinced about this fact. He said that sections of the Indian ruling political and military elite are importing the same Bush-Olmert formula into India. "The increasing terror attacks only serve the cause of the Indian elite and divide the masses along communal lines. It is only the ordinary Indians who are the victims of terror either in temples, mosques, buses or trains," he said adding that practically no political leader suffers a similar fate, where the terrorists are apprehended and killed in "encounters".

"Every terror attack is meant to push and drag the Indian masses further into the waiting arms of Uncle Sam and the Israeli Goliath. Every terror attack spreads further hatred for Muslims and Islam and weakens the Indian Muslim community," he said. <<
