SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS: Vote NO on any spending bill that would send more troops to Afghanistan

 

 
SIGN THE PETITION TO CONGRESS
 
President Obama has decided to send more than 30,000 extra troops to Afghanistan, at a cost of more than $100
 
billion/year. But America cannot afford a war that does not make us safer, and Congress has the power to stop the
 
escalation. Vote NO on any spending bill that would send more troops to Afghanistan.

Is there a revolt against the Israel Lobby brewing in Britain?

 



The Occidental Observer Newsletter - Martin Webster: Is there a revolt against the Israel Lobby brewing in Britain? A review of Peter Oborne's TV report Inside Britain's Israel Lobby

                      

Kevin MacDonald: Martin Webster on Peter Oborne's Exposé of Britain's Israel Lobby

December 14th, 2009

Kevin MacDonald: Martin Webster's article on Peter Oborne's exposé of Britain's Israel Lobby was just posted on TOO. Here's the link to the article, and we are also posting the link to Oborne's 50-minute program in  the video section of the TOO front page. This is very long article by TOO standards, and Webster adds a lot that is not in the program, so I thought I would briefly mention a couple of things. 

He does an excellent job of exposing the twin strategies of bribery and intimidation that have been so successfully pursued by the Isaral Lobby in America and elsewhere. The article shows how the Israel Lobby has been able to avoid laws intended to prevent corruption of public officials. It also discusses a number of complicit non-Jews who profit from their connections with the Israel Lobby and, in some cases, are married to Jewish women.

Finally, the article illustrates once again the importance of media control. Oborne's TV show has been given the silent treatment in the media and will doubtless be yet another example of how the truth is marginalized and basically irrelevant in contemporary Western societies.

Debating the Holocaust: A New Look at Both Sides By Thomas Dalton

In this remarkable, balanced book, the author skillfully reviews and compares "traditional" and "revisionist" views on the "The Holocaust."

On one side is the traditional, orthodox view -- six million Jewish casualties, gas chambers, cremation ovens, mass graves, and thousands of witnesses. On the other is the view of a small band of skeptical writers and researchers, often unfairly labeled "deniers," who contend that the public has been gravely misled about this emotion-laden chapter of history.

The author establishes that the arguments and findings of revisionist scholars are substantive, and deserve serious consideration. He points out, for example, that even the eminent Jewish Holocaust scholar Raul Hilberg acknowledged that there was no budget, plan or order by Hitler for a World War II program to exterminate Europe's Jews.

This book is especially relevant right now, as "Holocaust deniers" are routinely and harshly punished for their "blasphemy," and as growing numbers of people regard the standard, Hollywoodized "Holocaust" narrative with mounting suspicion and distrust.

The author of this book, who writes under the pen name of "Thomas Dalton," is an American scholar who holds a doctoral degree from a major US university.

This is no peripheral debate between arcane views of some obscure aspect of twentieth century history. Instead, this is a clash with profound social-political implications regarding freedom of speech and press, the manipulation of public opinion, how our cultural life is shaped, and how power is wielded in our society.

22 million missing Bush White House e-mails found (uh-oh!)

 

22 million missing Bush White House e-mails found

The Associated Press

Monday, December 14, 2009

WASHINGTON — Two nonprofit groups say that computer technicians have found 22 million White House e-mails from the administration of President George W. Bush.

The two groups say the electronic messages were previously mislabeled and effectively lost.

An announcement Monday by the two groups is the latest development in a controversy that surrounded the failure by the Bush White House to install an electronic recordkeeping system.

The two private organizations — the National Security Archive and Citizens for Responsibility and Ethics in Washington — say they are settling lawsuits that they filed against the Executive Office of the President in 2007.

Susan Serpa reports:

"Hello, fellow Peace-Lovers,
 
"Did you write, e-mail, phone and/or fax your congressional representative yet to direct him/her to sponsor Barbara Lee's bill HR 3699 to ptrohibit funding any surge?
 
"If so, what reply did you get?
 
"With no funding, we the People can stop the surge.
 
"We just need more than the 26 co-sponsors to date and have to act fast.

"Folks, Reach out to the low-hanging fruit - call all Reps who have co-signed J. McGovern's HR 2404 demanding an exit strategy, but have yet to sign HR 3699 to commit to voting against funding.  Tell them you didn't hear an exit strategy and they need to take the next.  Stop the surge by blocking the funding.

"You can find your Rep's contact information at congress.org.

"The list of now 26 co-sponsors can be found here: http://www.govtrack .us/congress/ bill.xpd? bill=h111- 3699.  

"Thank you for all you're doing for Peace and health for our planet.

"Here is the list (soon to be posted on http://JobsForAfghans.org)

Reps who signed HR2404 (demanding exit strategy), but have not yet signed HR 3699 blocking funds for the surge.
