[opinion] israel and hezbollah

Israel is on a hiding to nothing.

1948 is history and there the little nation sits, precariously, in the Holy Land. The question of who was there first, the Canaanites or them, is largely irrelevant, as is the original sin of Levi and his brother. Israel’s there and that’s that.

Hezbollah funding is limitless. Because Iranian funding is limitless. See my and countless other articles on oil. But oil is only part of the story. Every money-making excrescence is involved in underwriting Iran. Every pimp riding the streets of LA and NY is indirectly contributing. The thing is, you don’t need me to direct you to investigating Hezbollah funding. You can do it for yourself.

The logic is oh so clear. Israel accepts a ceasefire? Hezbollah creeps back in and all is as it was, minus a few hundred Lebanese and Israelis. Anyway, Beirut’s forever rebuilding. Just look at the story of Kim Philby to see the strategic importance of Beirut.

There is a saying by Nicolo Machiavelli [1513]:

Men should either be treated generously or destroyed because they take revenge for [the] slightest injuries – for heavy ones, they cannot.

I can’t believe that Israel did not know the full extent of the backup and supply lines to the suppliers of the suppliers of the suppliers of Hezbollah. I can’t believe that they don’t know that they must now either back off or else go the whole hog.

I can’t believe they were blind to the simple principle that a containment exercise on Hezbollah was never going to provide any more than good intelligence on the methods and training of that group, for a certain collateral loss.

I can’t believe that they don’t know the UN game plan, essentially as it’s a globalized game plan.

You don’t accept my thesis? Fine – then investigate it all yourself, but don’t leave any stone unturned, just because you don’t like its colour or fear what you’re going to find underneath. As Dr. Phil said:

The most we’re ever going to get is that which we ask for.

Meanwhile, David, on his site in Haifa, reports today:

An even greater miracle was that Irit's son-in-law came home for a short break this lunchtime from his emergency military service close to the Lebanese border where 12 reserve soldiers were killed today by a Katyusha rocket. Eli was with those same soldiers this morning and even took a picture on his camera-phone of one of those killed. This is the story I referred to in my previous report. It's very scary to know people involved and the bigger picture is hardly any more comforting.

David speaks of the bigger picture but I would hesitatingly posit that even he isn’t fully aware how big. In all recent posts, whether in the mainstream media or in the blogs I’ve so far seen, no one, no one blames the true culprit in this Middle-East business. Why don’t they?

John Buchan MP, in the first chapter of his classic The Thirty-Nine Steps [1915], has this conversation between himself [Richard Hannay] and a Jew-hating free-lance agent:

He told me some queer things that explained a lot that had puzzled me—things that happened in the Balkan War, how one state suddenly came out on top, why alliances were made and broken, why certain men disappeared, and where the sinews of war came from. The aim of the whole conspiracy was to get Russia and Germany at loggerheads.

When I asked why, he said that the anarchist lot thought it would give them their chance. Everything would be in the melting-pot, and they looked to see a new world emerge. The capitalists would rake in the shekels, and make fortunes by buying up wreckage. Capital, he said, had no conscience and no fatherland. Besides, the Jew was behind it, and the Jew hated Russia worse than hell.

'Do you wonder?' he cried. 'For three hundred years they have been persecuted, and this is the return match for the pogroms. The Jew is everywhere, but you have to go far down the backstairs to find him. Take any big Teutonic business concern. If you have dealings with it the first man you meet is Prince von und zu Something, an elegant young man who talks Eton-and-Harrow English.

But he cuts no ice. If your business is big, you get behind him and find a prognathous Westphalian with a retreating brow and the manners of a hog. He is the German business man that gives your English papers the shakes.

But if you're on the biggest kind of job and are bound to get to the real boss, ten to one you are brought up against a little white-faced Jew in a bath-chair with an eye like a rattle-snake. Yes, sir, he is the man who is ruling the world just now, and he has his knife in the Empire of the Tsar, because his aunt was outraged and his father flogged in some one-horse location on the Volga.'

I could not help saying that his Jew-anarchists seemed to have got left behind a little.

This last remark of Buchan’s was right then and it’s still right today. The problem is – no one will follow a lead through to its logical conclusion. There are enough people out there who know this thing’s connected with oil, who know it’s connected with Iran and the Arab world. What they then do is stop right there.

Whatever for? Because the names thrown up are cogent, plausible villains. The number two or three man will always take the heat, while number one is never, ever seen. For the Jews – it’s the Arab world and vice-versa, with the US thrown in for good measure. For the US – it’s the terrorists. No one wants to look any further. Don’t blame just Bush – he doesn’t count on this. Dick Cheney’s closer to the source than Bush and Kerry ever were.

For goodness sake, they even follow a manifesto:

1) Abolition of all ordered governments
2) Abolition of private property
3) Abolition of inheritance
4) Abolition of patriotism
5) Abolition of the family
6) Abolition of religion
7) Creation of a world government

“Oh, the globalists you mean?”

“No – the people behind the sustainable developers.”

“Behind, behind” – what’s this talk of behind? Sounds to me like conspiracy theory. Sounds to me like kook-speak.”

“Theory – an unproven supposition. And what constitutes proof? If you can’t accept ‘circumstantial’ in any shape or form, then who’s the kook? Might as well throw in your lot with the enlightenment philosophers. Circumstantial is good enough for the justice system, if there’s enough of it and if it’s august enough.”

This next quote – yes, I know it’s been debunked and bunked back again, discussed ad nauseam, used by the kook-press to support their insupportable ideas and so on. I know Churchill himself reneged and this quote is part of a greater whole with a slightly different angle to what the actual words purport to say … and yet he still said them:

From the days of Spartacus-Weishaupt to those of Karl Marx, to those of Trotsky, Bela Kun, Rosa Luxembourg, and Emma Goldman, this world wide conspiracy for the overthrow of civilization and for the reconstitution of society on the basis of arrested development, of envious malevolence and impossible equality, has been steadily growing.

It played a definitely recognizable role in the tragedy of the French Revolution. It has been the mainspring of every subversive movement during the nineteenth century, and now at last this band of extraordinary personalities from the underworld of the great cities of Europe and America have gripped the Russian people by the hair of their heads, and have become practically the undisputed masters of that enormous empire." 1920

You can think and say what you like. I consider the man was in the know and I’ve yet to see a definitive debunking of Churchill’s 'being in the know'. At this point of his upwards career, he was not unlike Andrew Jackson.

I’m not even going to start on Louis McFadden.

So what’s this to do with Israel and Hezbollah? Everything. It was behind Beslan; it was behind Kosovo; it was behind Sudan. I’m soon going to reprint an article on Algeria. No one’s denying the culpability of the Hezbollah special forces but when you read that Iran and Syria are behind them, why don’t you just ask the question, ‘Who’s behind them?’

It’s a simple enough question. Then, when you’ve done your homework, as I have, and we find the mysterious Messrs and Mesdames X, with their names and affiliated organizations, why don’t you then look inside the UN. It’s easily accessible – cast your eye down the list of affiliated organizations. Now the thing – don’t stop there. Who’s behind them?

I showed all this to a good friend from the military and yes – my background is military - he smiled wryly. I asked why he didn’t accept what he saw. He asked, in answer, ‘How come the world doesn’t know about it then? How come it’s not in the press.’

I don’t know. Ask Katie Graham that question. And while we’re on it – why were the Dragonskins not allowed to be worn in Iraq? Now some people will get the idea.

So who exactly am I then? I’m just a very ordinary person who happened to enjoy a few years in the heady atmosphere, as a B2, and came into contact with some very interesting people along the way and some very interesting ideas on rest and recuperation. My early exposure to internalized Christianity, as distinct from pontificating and warring Christianity, prevented me going any further down that path and it was seen that there was something ‘essentially wrong with this guy’. My name’s not Colson but it might as well be.

I just do my homework, like a good student; and that’s all there is to it.
