I don't think it mentions that the meeting between Iraqi intelligence and Atta in Germany - which never happened - was a lie created by Israel and passed to AIPAC and then into the Bush admin though the Office of Special Plans by Lawrence Franklin (who was charged by the FBI for spying for Israel via AIPAC - he was in the Bush admin). That was the single connection between Iraq and 9/11.

^ Big news eh? Why didn't John Stewart jump up and down that for months in the way he did with the nutty Christians?

Warrior, watch min 43 to 44.

then watch Missing Links.


I watched the first bit of that last night. The Lavon affair makes me suspicious about quite a few subsequent events. The part about the USS liberty is heart wrenching to watch. I didn't know that the Israeli warships fired on the life boats full with AMERICAN sailors who escaped the burning ship. I also didn't know that Israel pummeled the ship for 2 damn hours. I also didn't know that the president called the air support back to US carriers. I didn't know lots of things. The United States, if it were a sovereign nation, should have turned Tel Aviv into rubble for that.

The extent of the Israeli involvement in 9/11 is really scary. I did not know that a man overheard a Hebrew conversation in a NJ graveyard in October 2000. I didn't know that he heard:

Quote:
�The Americans will learn what it is to live with terrorists after the planes hit the twins in September.�


I did not know that he went to the FBI and Israeli-American dual citizen Michael Chertoff (who now is in control of firms that sell body scanners) shut down that investigation. I didn't know quite a bit.

I didn't know that a van with a mural of planes flying into the WTC buildings was driving around NYC during the attacks. I didn't know that two different vans full of Israeli's (one with bombs and the other with traces of bombs) were arrested in 9/11. They flunked their lie detector tests and were sent back to Israel. If a person picks up a van full for foreigners and bombs on 9/11, what kind of questions would you ask them? Yeah, they failed those questions.

Before learning about the Lavon Affair I thought that at the very, very least, Israel knew to the minute. After learning more of the Lavon affair, I'd say at the very very least they pushed it along.

Rick Sanchez:

Quote:
On October 4th, I had a very good conversation with Jon Stewart, and I had the opportunity to apologize for my inartful comments from last week. I sincerely extend this apology to anyone else whom I may have offended.

As Jon was kind enough to note in his show Monday night, I am very much opposed to hate and intolerance, in any form, and I have frequently spoken out against prejudice. Despite what my tired and mangled words may have implied, they were never intended to suggest any sort of narrow-mindedness and should never have been made.

In the aftermath of these comments, CNN and I have decided to part ways. However, I want to go on record to say that I have nothing but the highest regard for CNN and for my six wonderful years with them. I appreciate every opportunity that they have given me, and it has been a wonderful experience working for them. I have tremendous respect for everyone there, and I know that they feel the same about me. There are no hard feelings -- just excitement about a new future of opportunities.

I look forward to my next step with great anticipation.


What a lame response. My left nut could've done better than that.

I've been posting about that for quite a long while. Did it turn or was it turned. You tell me Catman, who feeds these people information? What they believe is a product of what they are told to believe. Catman, list for me the major media organizations in the United States that are not completely controlled by radical zionists.


PBS? MSNBC? Confused

I don't watch/listen/read the mainstream US press very much.

Quote:

The Tea Party started with the Ron Paul types


If we are talking about Tea Party protests that gained public attention in early 2009 they started with neo-cons. I'm sure there were true libertarians involved but neo-cons like Michelle Malkin were involved in organizing. Glenn Beck, Rush Limbaugh, Sean Hannity have promoted this thing.

Quote:

First is Palin, who is a creation of Israel-firster and warmonger par excellence Kristol. Palin is a sign of how little respect, rightly, these vile fake conservatives have for middle America. "Here peasants, she talks like you..but she displays my flag in her office".
The Tea Party is about half Palin and half Paul.


Not sure if any statistical study has been done but I find it hard to believe that half of the Tea Party are still Ron Paul supporters. If it was there would be at least some anti-war messages from the crowd. Far from it at this point. Even Rand Paul has toned down the non-intervention speak.

Quote:
I know that you, like me, are the product of an education that placed the Holocaust at the center of European everything,


I actually minored in European history and that wasn't the case for me. This has nothing to do with the Holocaust.

Quote:
and from that you have a reflexive (and extremely obnoxious) habit of sheltering Jews from criticism.


As a collective group? Yes. Not individual Jews who I disagree with though.


Quote:

It is time for you to get over it. It was a radical zionist media that ran cover for the neo-cons (almost all Israeli citizens) in the Office of Special Plans, that took the United States to war in Iraq.


They may be radical zionists but they weren't even a majority Jewish. In fact the Bush Admin was dominated by evangelical Christians. The leaders of all the nations the supported the Iraq War were Christians.

Quote:

They are going to do it again with Iran. When Obama is back 'community organizing' it will be the same radical cabal (literally) in the White House and the so-called liberal media (NYT) and conservative media (all of it, less The American Conservative) will be defending yet another war. They will defend it because it is good for Israel.


I expect the pro-war crowd to do so. I do believe that there will be more liberal media outlets against this war than there were against Iraq. Hysteria after 9/11 really played a roll.


Quote:

A pro-Israel perspective is pro-war. Period. Final answer. Full stop. Loyalty to Israel is pro-war. And that guy was the executive editor of the New York Fracking Times.


Yes I gernally agree. Pro-Israel is pretty much pro-war.

I'm going to speculate that Mossad did not get to be the crackerjack intelligence agency that we know today by having its agents high-five each other while publically filming their latest covert bombing attacks, all the while driving around town in a van portraying those very same attacks on the side.

I mean, think about it: the Israelis plan this operation to have planes fly into the WTC, and have some of the involved agents drive around in a van displaying the very crimes they're in the process of commiting? I can't recall the whole video: what evidence was presented for the van being painted in that fashion?

In the absence of further evidence, the high-fivers' own story continues to sound credible to me. They weren't emotionally devastated by 9/11, and thought that it would be a neat thing to record. I can honestly say that had I been in New York that day, I'd probably wanna film those events as well. That would be pretty historic footage.

OTOH, what part of:

1) vans full with bombs and Israeli citizens on 9/11.
2) "we were there to document the event"

do you not understand?

Quote:

Why not? They had another van heading to a bridge, probably to blow it up. Having a second van with a 9/11 mural (on 9/11) would be a nice way to pull police resources away from the real target.

Rick Sanchez 'decided' to part ways lol?

Did Rick have a meeting with the higher ups of CNN and 'decide' to get fired lol? I thought CNN 'decided' that for him.
