OUTSOURCING OF AMERICAN FOREIGN POLICY TO ISRAEL AND THE NEO-CONSERVATIVES: THE JERUSALEM SUMMITS

 

 

 

 

October 12-14, 2003, saw the first annual JERUSALEM SUMMIT.

These summits, pushed by Richard Perle and the Israeli government, serve as an "offshore think tank" whose aim is to control American foreign policy worldwide and particularly in the Middle East. The main purpose of these summits is to bring into being a "clash of civilizations", a global civil war between America-led-by-Israel against the Moslem and Arab worlds, to kill the idea of a Palestinian state and force the Palestinians out of the terrritories by completing Sharon’s Wall and then squeezing the Palestinians out.

 

Arafat is represented first as Hitler II, then head of Islamo-fascism. Israel stands as the main bulwark between the Islamo-barbarians and the West.

This program is discussed quite explicity and without "shyness". It is this Judeo-Nazism—there’s no other honest appelation for this "historo-pathology-- which undergirds Bush’s Iraq War.

These views are then "stovepiped"(i.e.quietly and directly transmitted directly) to Cheney and Rumsfeld and thence to Rice/Bush.

Douglas Feith is a key part of the "stovepipe" operation.
