Palestine Ambassador: 'Mossad' active in India too
Kochi: The Israeli spy agency 'Mossad' is very active in India too, said HE Adli Sadiq, Palestinian Ambassador to India. The 'Mossad', which has a powerful network in foreign countries, has got influences in the media and security fields. They are in contact with several other fields too, said Mr Sadiq when he came to Kerala for a national seminar held in the Farook College in Calicut.

Mr Sadiq said that even government servants get paid by the 'Mossad' in European countries. The Mossad is making all problems in Palestine. The agency creates problems in countries and come with solutions too. The Mossad organized the bomb blast in Egypt in 1955 aiming at worsening the ties Egypt had with Britain and America. The Mossad organizes blasts in countries where Jews live in order to create an impression that Jews are not safe in the country.
Video: I am Israel




I am Israel. I came to a land without a people for a people without a land. Those people who happened to be here, had no right to be here and my people showed them they had to leave or die, razing 480 Palestinian villages to the ground, erasing their history.

I am Israel. Some of my people committed massacres and later became prime ministers to represent me. In 1948, Menachem Begin was in charge of the unit that slaughtered the inhabitants of Deir Yassin, including 100 men, wome, and children. In 1953, Ariel Sharon led the slaughter of the inhabitants of Qibya, and in 1982 arranged for our allies to butcher around 2,000 in the refugee camps of Sabra and Shatilla.
Obama's Failure to Close Guantánamo by January Deadline Is Disastrous

President Obama's admission in China that he will miss his self-imposed deadline for the closure of Guantánamo is disastrous for the majority of the 215 men still held in the detention facility, and for those who hoped, ten months ago, that the president would move swiftly to close this bitter icon of the Bush administration's lawless detention and interrogation policies in the "war on terror."

Despite announcing the closure of Guantánamo on his second day in office as part of a number of executive orders rolling back the Bush administration's executive overreach, Obama then failed to follow up with a detailed plan. He missed the opportunity to bring a number of wrongly imprisoned men to the US mainland (the Uighurs, Muslims from China whose release into the US had been ordered by a district court judge), and allowing Republican fearmongers to seize the initiative, mobilizing lawmakers (including some in Obama's own party) to pass legislation preventing any cleared prisoner from being released into the United States.
War Is A Racket
Comment: Smedley Darlington Butler (July 30, 1881 - June 21, 1940) was a Major General in the US Marine Corps and one of the most decorated marines in US history. After blowing the whistle on the Business Plot, an attempt by Wall Street power brokers to institute a fascist dictatorship in 1934, Butler wrote the following pamphlet and toured the US warning Americans of the dangerous threat posed by the corporate elite. His insider's glimpse of how wars are created for profit is as prescient today as it was then.



Smedley D. Butler: anti-war hero
War Is A Racket

War is a racket. It always has been.

It is possibly the oldest, easily the most profitable, surely the most vicious. It is the only one international in scope. It is the only one in which the profits are reckoned in dollars and the losses in lives.

A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of the people. Only a small "inside" group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few, at the expense of the very many. Out of war a few people make huge fortunes.

In the World War [I] a mere handful garnered the profits of the conflict. At least 21,000 new millionaires and billionaires were made in the United States during the World War. That many admitted their huge blood gains in their income tax returns. How many other war millionaires falsified their tax returns no one knows.

How many of these war millionaires shouldered a rifle? How many of them dug a trench? How many of them knew what it meant to go hungry in a rat-infested dug-out? How many of them spent sleepless, frightened nights, ducking shells and shrapnel and machine gun bullets? How many of them parried a bayonet thrust of an enemy? How many of them were wounded or killed in battle?

Out of war nations acquire additional territory, if they are victorious. They just take it. This newly acquired territory promptly is exploited by the few -- the selfsame few who wrung dollars out of blood in the war. The general public shoulders the bill.
CIA 'secret' torture chamber confirmed outside Vilnius, Lithuania




The CIA built one of its secret European prisons inside an exclusive riding academy outside Vilnius, Lithuania, a current Lithuanian government official and a former U.S. intelligence official told ABC News this week.

Where affluent Lithuanians once rode show horses and sipped coffee at a café, the CIA installed a concrete structure where it could use harsh tactics to interrogate up to eight suspected al-Qaeda terrorists at a time.

"The activities in that prison were illegal," said human rights researcher John Sifton. "They included various forms of torture, including sleep deprivation, forced standing, painful stress positions."

Lithuanian officials provided ABC News with the documents of what they called a CIA front company, Elite, LLC, which purchased the property and built the "black site" in 2004.

Lithuania agreed to allow the CIA prison after President George W. Bush visited the country in 2002 and pledged support for Lithuania's efforts to join NATO.

"The new members of NATO were so grateful for the U.S. role in getting them into that organization that they would do anything the U.S. asked for during that period," said former White House counterterrorism czar Richard Clarke, now an ABC News consultant. "They were eager to please and eager to be cooperative on security and on intelligence matters."
Comment: Note the ABC news presenter's contempt at the end of the video report as Brian Ross explains that Lithuanian authorities will prosecute any Americans found to be involved in the torture operation. It may seem a risible possibility to Americans trapped behind the frequency fence of media propaganda, but the prosecution and imprisonment of CIA agents has already begun:

Iran knows that Israel faked the Francop arms stunt

Propaganda stunt
Israeli photos depicting shipping documents pointing to an alleged Iranian arms delivery to Hezbollah are forgeries, Iranian media claims.

The Israeli army in early November said it unloaded 36 containers of weapons at the Israeli port of Ashdod from the Antigua-flagged vessel Francop.

Thirty tons of weapons, rockets, missiles, hand grenades and ammunition were hidden behind thousands of plastic polyethylene bags, the army said.

Israel claimed the Iranian- and Russian-made arms were due to be unloaded in the Syrian port of Latakia and from there transferred to Hezbollah in Lebanon.

The Illusion of Democracy in the Modern World

Most of the 'terrorist' bomb attacks of the past sixty years have been false-flag attacks that were actually committed by the Israeli Mossad, the CIA, and British intelligence. For six decades the allied Western intelligence agencies have been carrying out an ongoing campaign to frame Muslims for bombings which were actually perpetrated by the Western intelligence agencies themselves. The attacks on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon on 9/11/2001 were a joint CIA/Pentagon/Mossad false-flag operation that was intended to provide an excuse for the subsequent US-led Coalition invasions and occupations of Afghanistan and Iraq.

The Western nations are not unique in their use of false-flag bombings to inspire public support for a government policy of aggression. The Russian government blamed Chechen 'terrorists' for perpetrating the horrific Moscow apartment bombings of the summer of 1999, but agents of the Russian FSB were seen placing military-grade explosives in the basement of an apartment building in Ryazan, near Moscow.
U.S. Moves to Seize 4 Mosques and Skyscraper Tied to Iran
Federal prosecutors took steps Thursday to seize four U.S. mosques and a Fifth Avenue skyscraper owned by a nonprofit Muslim organization long suspected of being secretly controlled by the Iranian government.

In what could prove to be one of the biggest counterterrorism seizures in U.S. history, prosecutors filed a civil complaint in federal court against the Alavi Foundation, seeking the forfeiture of more than $500 million in assets.



Comment: Note how easily mere "suspicions" turn into the "biggest counterterrorism seizures" in the mainstream media.



The assets include bank accounts; Islamic centers consisting of schools and mosques in New York City, Maryland, California and Houston; more than 100 acres in Virginia; and a 36-story glass office tower in New York.
Global Warfare USA: The World is the Pentagon's Oyster
© Spacebob.us
On January 20, a changing of the guard occurred in the United States White House with two-term president George W. Bush being replaced by former freshman senator Barack Obama.

Bush had continued the policies of his predecessor Bill Clinton in relation to the Balkans, Iraq and Latin America - with troops and a massive military base in Kosovo, regular bombings of Iraq and a monumental expansion of military aid to Colombia - and in addition launched two wars of his own, those against Afghanistan in 2001 and Iraq two years later.

Obama, so thoroughly does U.S. polity predetermine individual administrations' policies, entered office by intensifying the deadly drone missile attacks in Pakistan begun by Bush in late 2008 and announced that he was doubling the number of American troops in Afghanistan.
AIPAC Received Classified US Trade Docs from Israeli Embassy - IRmep
A FBI file reveals the Israeli embassy passed stolen classified US government information to the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC). In 1984 Israel and AIPAC jointly lobbied Congress to secure preferential Israeli access to the US market against widespread American industry opposition.

The declassified FBI report may be downloaded from the Israel Lobby Archive at: http://www.irmep.org/ila/economy/03071986INTERVIEW.pdf The FBI file, kept secret for 25 years, was recently released to the Institute for Research: Middle Eastern Policy (IRmep) through Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. The declassified files, their historical context, and long term impact on jobs and exports are detailed in the new book Spy Trade: How Israel's Lobby Undermines America's Economy. Spy Trade also analyzes AIPAC's long history of guidance and material support from the Israeli government.
