President
Obama hopes to head off a train wreck in September at
the U.N. General Assembly. That's when member nations
plan to press for an independent Palestine. The Israel
lobby is furious.
Critics
doubt that the General Assembly has the authority to
recognize Palestine. Yet protection of member
sovereignty has been a goal of the U.N. since its
founding. Thus the priority that Israel placed on U.N.
recognition after President Harry Truman acknowledged
Israel on May 14, 1948, eleven minutes after the
Zionist enclave declared itself a state.
Truman
refused to recognize this enclave as "the Jewish
state." Despite Barack Obama's reference to the Jewish
state in a recent speech on the Middle East, during
the final days before granting recognition and thereby
"legitimacy," Truman was consumed with the fear that
Zionist aspirations would lead to a racist or a
theocratic state.
Those
concerns led Zionist leader Chaim Weizzman to lobby
Truman with a seven-page letter reassuring him that
Jewish settlers envisioned a thoroughly secular state
similar to the U.S. and Great Britain. Truman
underscored that understanding when he recognized not
the "Jewish state" (a description he crossed out) but
the "State of Israel."
Today's
train wreck should have been foreseen when Weizzman
lied to Truman about Zionist intentions. As with every
U.S. president since, Truman was deceived.
The Joint
Chiefs cautioned Truman about the "fanatical concepts"
of a Jewish-Zionist elite that sought recognition as a
legitimate state. Even then, U.S. military leaders
warned that this extremist enclave sought "military
and economic hegemony over the entire Middle East."
Truman, a Christian-Zionist, chose to believe
otherwise.
Albert
Einstein was also worried. He and other concerned Jews
described the Zionist political party that produced
Menachem Begin, Ariel Sharon and now Benjamin
Netanyahu as a "terrorist party" with "the
unmistakable stamp of a Fascist party."
The Train Wreck
Truman's
worst fears have since been realized except that the
effects were far worse than either he or the Joint
Chiefs envisioned. To persuade other nations to endure
this enclave of fanatics, the U.S. assured nearby Arab
neighbors that Israel would seek no more land.
We now
know that the Zionists saw nation-state recognition as
only an initial foothold in the region from which to
expand their territory and wield geopolitical
influence—behind a U.S.-enabled facade of legitimacy.
Secretary
of State George Marshall assured Truman that if he
recognized these extremists as a legitimate state,
Marshall would vote against him. This former WWII
general anticipated the dynamics that have since
devastated U.S. national security as we Americans were
induced to expend our blood and treasure in support of
Zionist goals.
The U.S.
now appears culpable due to our alliance with a
nuclear-armed theocratic enclave of extremists with an
apartheid domestic policy and an expansionist foreign
policy.
The U.S.
diplomatic community also warned Truman against
recognition, as did the intelligence community and the
policy planning staff at the State Department. Clark
Clifford, chairman of Truman's 1948 presidential
campaign, told Truman that if he withheld recognition,
campaign funding expected from the Israel lobby would
be withheld.
Ally or
Agent Provocateur?
Fast-forward to 1967 and we find this same
transnational network pre-staging a conflict designed
to appear defensive. Since mythologized as the heroic
"Six-Day War," that agent provocateur operation
set in motion geopolitical reactions still playing out
today.
How far
ahead of time was this provocation planned? An Israel
Air Force general conceded that attack simulations
began in the early 1950s. United Artists president
Arthur Krim and his wife, Mathilde, began a strategic
friendship with Texas Senator Lyndon B. Johnson. By
acquiring property near the LBJ Ranch, Mathilde, a
former Irgun operative, could carry on an affair with
Johnson while her husband chaired the finance
committee for the Democrats.
On the
night that the Six-Day Land Grab began, Mathilde was
enjoying a sleepover in the Johnson White House. But
for that Zionist aggression, would Israel have been
able to live peacefully with its neighbors? Israel and
its supporters staged an elaborate charade to recast
this provocation as defensive. That ruse included the
cover-up of an Israeli assault on the U.S.S. Liberty
that killed 34 Americans and left 175 wounded.
Then as
now, the fabled "Israelites" were portrayed as victims
of a hostile world. Then as now, anyone chronicling
the consistency of this duplicity risks portrayal as
an "anti-Semite."
This
trans-generational deceit continues to undermine U.S.
national security at every turn. Zionist treachery
began long before George Marshall and the Pentagon
cautioned Truman against what these fanatics would now
deny the Palestinians: legitimacy.
By the
consistency of our support over more than six decades,
the U.S. now appears guilty by association. If the
U.N. vote becomes a diplomatic train wreck, we have
only ourselves to blame.
