WOOLSEY AND THE FOUNDATION FOR THE DEFENSE OF DEMOCRACIES.

 

 

The FDD (Foundation for the Defense of Democracies) is another Woolsey-affiliated neo-con/Zionist grouping with terrorism as the main buzzword and Arabs and Moslems as the main target.

The world is divided into liberal democracies and Islamo-fascism ringed by bystanders like Japan. This is "lovely" since it gives Bush a simple cartoon that saves him from any complexity and it allows Israel to establish a radicalized Hamas/Islamic Jihad grouping in Palestine to replace Arafat and then of course brand them as Islamo-fascist.

In other words, "worse is better" and "war is peace".

This then brings the whole world to a "clash of civilizations" with America-led-by-Israel on one side and Arabs and Moslems on the other. Radicalizing Arabs and Moslems to "clinch" this polarization is the Israel/neo-con design and the Iraq war was partly based on a desire to both upend the Middle East by promoting West versus Arabs/Islam tension as well as Shiite/Sunni/Kurd tensions within the Middle East.

Woolsey is a useful tool in this "hostility industry" lead by the neo-cons and Israel.

 

FDD, outlined below, is a cog in this belligerence-mongering:
