Rick Perry Abuses His Office for Israel
Posted By Philip Giraldi On August 3, 2011 (11:00 pm) In Uncategorized

Jean-Jacques Rousseau described the reciprocal relationship between a government and its people as a "social contract." Even from the first legal code by the Babylonian Hammurabi, one learns that the principal benefit that government bestows on the people is the promise of justice. By the time of the Roman Republic, the principle of equal justice under the law for all citizens was enshrined as a fundamental right, even though it might sometimes be abused by the rich and powerful. When that abuse became the norm because of corruption, the Republic fell. The framers of the U.S. Constitution carefully studied the demise of the ancient experiments in representative government. They sought to create a system with checks and balances and a Bill of Rights that would guarantee fundamental fairness in the way that the law was applied, without fear or favor.

In the federal republic that is the United States, there are 51 chief executive officers. They are the president and the 50 state governors. They all swear an oath to uphold their respective constitutions and to see that justice is administered impartially to all the people. In a certain sense, it is their principal responsibility, because the law is the cornerstone of respect for individual liberties. Any abuse of the judicial system will inevitably produce many other evils.

To be fair,...

Re: Repeating Nazi Propaganda, From Kurt Vonnegut to NPR

 

Nazi propaganda? This is more like zionist propaganda.

 

Many if not most of the Dresden victims were Eastern ethnic German refugees, escaping the murderous, raping, looting hordes of the Red Army, the Eastern partner in war and plunder, who were following the exhortations of Illya Ehlenburg, the jewish writer and Stalin favorite to "take the blond bitch and kill the men".

 

Literally, every public space in Dresden was occupied by refugees, seeking shelter in the middle of Central Europe's harsh winter.

 

Further, Dresden had no anti-aircraft defenses, for these had been moved out of the city to protect other more likely targets of air raid. There was nothing of military value in Dresden. There was only art. Some of the very best art Western Civilization has created was in the museums, palaces and churches of Dresden.


But what is art to the likes of Churchill, Eisenhower, Harris and kindred troglodytes?


Much of that art was lost forever to mankind.

 

The Western Allies incinerated up to 300,000 human beings in Dresden alone, without the benefit of David Irving's account. However, David Irving is probably the only reliable historian when it comes to anything approaching that third rail of Hitler and his "demons" *

 

As a parallel to the destruction of Dresden, the city of Hamburg was also destroyed in firestorms (50% of the housing destroyed). But this destruction cannot equal the magnitude of the destruction of Dresden in human terms.

 

This is from a non-Irving source (Wikipedia)

================================================================   

Battle of Hamburg

The Battle of Hamburg, codenamed Operation Gomorrah, was a campaign of air raids beginning 24 July 1943 for 8 days and 7 nights. It was at the time the heaviest assault in the history of aerial warfare and was later called the Hiroshima of Germany by British officials.[3]

The Battle of Hamburg overlapped the Battle of the Ruhr which ended on 31 July.[citation needed] The operation was conducted by RAF Bomber Command (including RCAF Squadrons) and the USAAF Eighth Air Force. The British conducted the night raids and the USAAF conducted the daylight raids.

On 24 July, at approximately 00:57AM, the first bombing started by the RAF and lasted almost an hour. A second daylight raid by US Army Air Force was conducted at 4:40PM. A third raid was conducted on the morning of the 26th. The night attack of 26 July at 00:20AM was extremely light due to a severe thunderstorm and high winds over the North Sea during which a considerable number of bombers jettisoned the explosive part of their bomb loads (retaining just the incendiaries) with only two bomb drops reported. That attack is often not counted when the total number of Operation Gomorrah attacks is given. There was no day raid on the 27th.

On the night of 27 July, shortly before midnight, 739 aircraft attacked Hamburg.[4] The unusually dry and warm weather, the concentration of the bombing in one area, and firefighting limitations due to Blockbuster bombs used in the early part of the raid culminated in the so-called "Feuersturm" (firestorm). The tornadic fire created a huge inferno with winds of up to 240 km/h (150 mph )reaching temperatures of 800 °C (1,500 °F) and altitudes in excess of 1,000 feet, incinerating more than eight square miles (21 km²) of the city. Asphalt streets burst into flame, and fuel oil from damaged and destroyed ships, barges, and storage tanks spilled into the waters of the canals and the harbor caused it to ignite as well. The majority of deaths attributed to Operation 'Gomorrah' occurred on this night. A large number of those killed died seeking safety in bomb shelters and cellars, the firestorm consuming all available oxygen in the burning city above. The furious winds created by the firestorm had the power to sweep people up off the streets like dry leaves:

Some people who tried to walk along, they were pulled in by the fire, they all of the sudden disappeared right in front of you (...) You have to save yourself or try go get as far away from the fire, because the draught pulls you in.[5]

On the night of 29 July, Hamburg was again attacked by over 700 aircraft. The last raid of Operation Gomorrah was conducted on 3 August.

Operation Gomorrah killed 42,600 people and left 37,000 wounded. Some one million German civilians fled the city. The city's labour force was reduced permanently by ten percent.[6] Approximately 3,000 aircraft were deployed, 9,000 tons of bombs were dropped, and over 250,000 homes and houses were destroyed. No subsequent city raid shook Germany as did that on Hamburg; documents show that German officials were thoroughly alarmed, and there is some indication from later Allied interrogations of Nazi officials that Hitler stated that further raids of similar weight would force Germany out of the war. The industrial losses were severe. Hamburg never recovered to full production, only doing so in essential armaments industries (which a maximum effort was made).[7] Figures given by German sources indicate, 183 large factories were destroyed out of 524 in the city, 4,118 smaller factories out of 9,068 were destroyed. Other losses included 580 industrial concerns and armaments works, 299 of which were important enough to be listed by name, were either destroyed or damaged. Local transport systems were completely disrupted and did not return to normal for some time. Dwellings destroyed amounted to 214,350 destroyed out of 414,500.[8] Hamburg was hit by air raids another 69 times before the end of World War II.

==================================================================   

 

But it is better documented, since it did not fall behind the Iron Curtain at the end of the war. It was only then that the Western "statesmen" realized the kind of bargain they had entered into with the Communist demon.

 

After the Dresden firestorm, rescue and relief efforts were assigned to the Waffen SS, since there was no civilian infrastructure left to deal with the victims and the aftermath.

 

Corpses of those that had not been turned to ashes were recovered and attempts were made to identify them before burial.

 

After 4 or 5 days, only 38,000 victims had been positively identified. Many more could not be identified since it was not easy to identify carbonized or partly carbonized human remains given the extreme conditions extant.

 

At that point and for sanitary reasons, it was decided to cremate all remains. And Anglo-American propaganda used that 38,000 number for many years, in order to trivialize the pointless atrocity.

 

Eventually, the post-war German colonial administration has yielded to Western nudging to revise this number even further. So now the official number stands in the 25,000 range. This number has become the equivalent of the more notorious 6,000,000. An unassailable historical diktat, which questioning no doubt soon will be likewise criminalized.


Incidentally, not too many years ago, Queen Elizabeth of England decided to visit Dresden (for whatever reason). Many citizens of Dresden were not happy about her visit because the previous year the queen has participated in a ceremony honoring bomber Harris and unveiled his bronze statue. Had Britain lost the war, Harris would have hung next to Churchill in some prison basement, but since Britain "won" the war, the butcher is honored with a bronze statue. The queen was pelted with eggs.

 

Dresden resident and diarist Victor Klemperer (his diary published as: "I Will Bear Witness....") touches upon some aspects of the firestorm. He does not dwell on the firestorm per se because the purpose of his diary was to document the survival of a Jew (himself) in Nazi Germany without being deported to a concentration camp. In fact he confides to his diary that only a bombing of the city would help him survive a rumored threat of removal of remaining Jews to a concentration camp.


Fortunately, he lived too far from the center of Dresden (on the other side of the river Elbe) and thus escaped incineration.

 

This fragment from Klemperer's diary touches on the firestorm where his wife, relieved at their survival and wanting to light a cigarette and finding not matches, tries to pick up a glowing ember only to realize that is was a burning corpse.

 

<< 

Once, as she was searching, she had wanted to light a cigarette and had had no matches, something was glowing on the ground, she wanted to use it -- it was a burning corpse. On the whole, Eva had kept her head much better than I, observed much more calmly and gone her own way, even though pieces of wood from a window had struck her head as she was climbing out. (Fortunately, the skull was thick and she was unharmed.) The difference: She acted and observed, I followed my instincts, other people saw nothing at all. So now it was Wednesday morning, the 14th of February and our lives were saved and we were together.

1. CONFERENCE ON BOUNDARIES OF OPEN DISCUSSION-Update

Intoduction by Gilad Atzmon: The following is a message from Dr Gabi Weber re:"PALESTINE, ISRAEL, GERMANY - THE BOUNDARIES OF OPEN DISCUSSION" Conference. 

It is almost amusing to find out that,  so far,  the only people who attempted  to stop  the conference were some  elements within the so-called Jewish 'anti' Zionist network. In due time, their names and tactics will be exposed.

The conference  is an attempt to liberate our discourse. We  will elaborate on some 'contentious' topics such as suppression of truth, history, narration, mainstream-media complicity and media coverage, Islamophobia, anti-Semitism vs. criticism of Israel and responsability. We will also try to look into practical solutions for Palestinian self-determination.

You really want to be there!!!

G. Atzmon                                     

 

Dear All, 

While attempts made by the usual suspects(1) to destroy Palestine Days in Freiburg are still going on, Cafe Palestine Freiburg  very pleased to present to you our programme update.

Two of the speakers pulled out due to pressure, intimidation and personal disagreement.

Ramzy Baroud  had to cancel a whole German tour as important tasks  are waiting for him in September. However he will make a video appearence in the conference and copies of his speech will be distributed in German and English.

Three amazing Palestinian speakers who will join the conference and make an important  contribution to the event: Dr. Samir Abed-Rabbo from Dallas (One Democratic State), Sameh Habeeb  from London (Palestine Telegraph) and Dr. Makram Khoury-Machool from Cambridge (Middle East Media Specialist) .

You will find their topics and biographies on our conference blog

2. Professor James Petras on The Wandering Who? 

Friday, August 12, 2011 at 5:40AM Gilad Atzmon

'Gilad Atzmon's The Wandering Who? is a series of brilliant
illuminations and critical reflections on Jewish ethnocentrism and
the hypocrisy of those who speak in the name of universal values
and act tribal. Relying on autobiographical and existential experiences,
as well as intimate observations of everyday life, both
informed by profound psychological insights, Atzmon does what
many critics of Israel fail to do; he uncovers the links between
Jewish identity politics in the Diaspora with their ardent support
for the oppressive policies of the Israeli state.

 

Atzmon provides deep insights into "neo-ghetto" politics. He
has the courage – so profoundly lacking among western intellectuals
- to speak truth to the power of highly placed and affluent
Zionists who shape the agendas of war and peace in the Englishspeaking
world. With wit and imagination, Atzmon's passionate
confrontation with neo-conservative power grabbers and liberal
yea sayers sets this book apart for its original understanding of the
dangers of closed minds with hands on the levers of power.
This book is more than a "study of Jewish identity politics"
insofar as we are dealing with a matrix of power that affects all
who cherish self-determination and personal freedom in the face
of imperial and colonial dictates.'

Professor James Petras, Bartle Professor of Sociology at Binghamton
University, New York, author of more than 62 books including The
Power of Israel in the United States.

Rioting in Britain, and the Hiroshima Bombing 
Mark Weber -- Podcast
http://reasonradionetwork.com/20110811/the-mark-weber-report-rioting-in-britain-and-the-hiroshima-bombing 

The recent orgy of looting and destruction in London and other British cities is a stern indictment of a failed social-political system. It's also an predictable consequence of large-scale non-European immigration. In a prophetic speech given in 1968, Enoch Powell, a prominent British political figure, warned that the "mad" policy of non-European immigration would have terrible long-term consequences. If the history of the twentieth century teaches anything, says Weber, it's the falsehood of the ideology of multiculturalism, egalitarianism and "diversity." Weber also takes a critical look at the atomic bombing of Japan in August 1945, and shows that this mass killing of civilians was not necessary to end the war. 


Competing Explanations For The Riots 
BBC News
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/magazine-14483149 

Many theories have been posited about the underlying causes of the riots in England - from moral decay to excessive consumerism. Here two criminologists give their views on some of the arguments. 


Too Many Immigrants, Say Most Britons 
Daily Mail (Britain) 
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-2022432/There-ARE-immigrants-UK-say-seven-10-Britons.html 

Nearly three quarters of Britons think there are too many immigrants in the country, a survey revealed yesterday. The international poll, by IPSOS Mori, put the UK third highest in a league table of 23 countries according to concerns about migrant numbers. And it showed Britain topped the table of countries according to concerns over the impact of migrants on public services. Some 76 per cent of those questioned said immigration had put too much pressure on hospitals, transport services and schools. The poll exposes the huge on-going scale of public worry over migration levels in recent years. Under Labour's open door immigration policy, the population was boosted by more than 3.2 million arrivals from overseas. 


Britain Burns: Riots Spread Through UK Cities 
The Associated Press 
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/top/all/7689424.html 

A wave of violence and looting raged across London and spread to three other major British cities, as authorities struggled to contain the country's worst unrest since race riots set the capital ablaze in the 1980s. In London, groups of young people rampaged for a third straight night, setting buildings, vehicles and garbage dumps alight, looting stores and pelting police officers with bottles and fireworks ... The riots appeared to have little unifying cause ... Many appeared attracted simply by the opportunity for violence. "Come join the fun!" shouted one youth in the east London suburb of Hackney, where shops were attacked and cars torched. 


Our Commando War in 120 Countries: Secret US Military Operations 
Nick Turse -- Alternet and TomDispatch 
http://www.alternet.org/world/151904 

... Without the knowledge of the American public, a secret force within the U.S. military is undertaking operations in a majority of the world's countries. This new Pentagon power elite is waging a global war whose size and scope has never been revealed, until now ... U.S. Special Operations forces were deployed in 75 countries, up from 60 at the end of the Bush presidency. By the end of this year, U.S. Special Operations Command spokesman Colonel Tim Nye told me, that number will likely reach 120. 


U.S. Debt Crisis Sidelines an Emergency Attack on Iran 
Haaretz (Israel) 
http://www.haaretz.com/print-edition/opinion/u-s-debt-crisis-sidelines-an-emergency-attack-on-iran-1.377718 

The American trigger finger is itchy. Itchy, but flinching ... Under the current economic and political circumstances, the Obama administration will not be in any hurry to do Israel a favor and pull the nuclear chestnuts out the Iranian fire by means of a preemptive strike against Tehran's nuclear facilities, material storage locations and missile sites. America's national debt crisis and Pentagon budget cuts are pushing to the margins emergency plans for an operation against Iran. 


Swedish Queen Says Father Is Hero, Not Nazi 
JTA 
http://www.jta.org/news/article/2011/08/09/3088913/swedish-queen-says-father-hero-not-nazi 

Sweden's Queen Silvia says an investigation into her father's links to the Nazis show that he is a hero. A report commissioned by the queen determined that Walter Sommerlath helped at least one Jewish man escape the Nazis. The 34-page report was released on Tuesday. Sommerlath exchanged his coffee plantation in Brazil for the Berlin factory of Efim Wechsler in 1939, which allowed Wechsler to immigrate to Brazil and escape the Nazis, according to the report. The report also found that Sommerlath was a member of the Nazi Party, but apparently inactive. Elan Steinberg, vice president of the American Gathering of Holocaust Survivors and their Descendants, called the report "self-serving and lacking in credibility," and said that Holocaust survivors reject it. 


US Holocaust Survivors to Receive Federal Funds: `Preferred Treatment' 
The Jerusalem Post (Israel) 
http://www.jpost.com/JewishWorld/JewishNews/Article.aspx?id=232580 

Holocaust survivors in the US will receive federal funds designed to help them age at home, rather than having to move to an institution, according to a new congressional bill drafted by Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) and Ileana Ros-Lehtinen (R-FL). The bipartisan proposal calls for survivors to be added to a list of elderly citizens receiving preferred treatment under the Older Americans Act, to designate an individual within the Administration on Aging to overlook programs offered to survivors and create a grant program helping them with their transportation needs. 


In Iran, Tehran Street Named For Rachel Corrie 
The Associated Press 
http://www.chron.com/disp/story.mpl/ap/world/7692768.html 

Tehran's municipal council has named a street after an American activist who was crushed to death by an Israeli military bulldozer in the Gaza Strip in 2003, local newspaper reported on Thursday. The report in Hamshahri, a daily affiliated with Tehran municipality, said the council decided to name the street Rachel Aliene Corrie. It said the street would be in central Tehran, but did not specify when the sign bearing the new name would be hung. Corrie, a pro-Palestinian activist from Washington state, was trying to prevent what she and other activists believed was an Israeli military push to demolish nearby Palestinian homes. She was 23 at the time of her death. 


Schools To Get `No Child' Testing Waivers 
The Associated Press 
http://mynorthwest.com/?nid=15&sid=484369 

State and local education officials have been begging the federal government for relief from student testing mandates in the federal No Child Left Behind law, but school starts soon and Congress still hasn't answered the call. Education Secretary Arne Duncan says he will announce a new waiver system Monday to give schools a break. The plan to offer waivers to all 50 states, as long as they meet other school reform requirements, comes at the request of President Barack Obama, Duncan said. More details on the waivers will come in September, he said. The goal of the No Child Left Behind law is to have every student proficient in math and reading by 2014. 


Holocaust Fund Scammer Is Sentenced to Prison 
JTA 
http://www.jpost.com/JewishWorld/JewishNews/Article.aspx?id=233051 

A Russian Jewish immigrant to the United States was sentenced to a year and a day in jail on Monday for scamming thousands from a fund benefiting Holocaust victims. Polina Anoshina, 63, of the Brighton Beach section of Brooklyn, also received two years probation when she was sentenced in US District Court in Manhattan. Anoshina was the first to be sentenced among 19 caught in the FBI investigation for participation in the scam; nine have pleaded guilty. She is not a Holocaust survivor. Judge Deborah Batts also ordered Anoshina to repay $105,000 to the Claims Conference, an organization that distributes the restitution made by the German government to Holocaust survivors.
