It would be a hoot if it wasn't such an inescapable and chilling reality: the thought of U.S. government entities fomenting violent uprisings against democratically-elected foreign governments, sabotaging peace efforts, rigging elections, and inciting the public into supporting preemptive, nuclear attacks against nuke-less nations which pose no real threat to the U.S. or Israeli sovereignty. The thought of mainstream media complicit in the effort to keep the expanding war machine in motion is even more disheartening. It too, however, is a chilling reality, and is the biggest reason why the criminal elements within the U.S. and Israeli governments get away with their deplorable and illegal activities.

From the dual-national "think-tankers" who traitorously manipulate foreign policy, to the paid-for, Israel-first Congressmen who rape the Constitution for special (MSM/MIC) interests on a daily basis, to the interchangeable, PNAC-Bush Administration "parts," to the traitorous saboteur-provocateurs on location doing the necessary dirty work to keep the war machine fed, the American People are up against a practically indomitable entity of conquest and faced with the prospect of a catastrophic conflagration of chaos in the Middle East the likes of which we have not seen in modern times. The violence in Gaza and the Palestinian refugee camps in Lebanon is the preliminary divide-and-conquer phase of the larger neocon plan for the region — namely, the ruination of Israel's state enemies through a combination of proxy war and guilt-by-association. [1]

In reality, the only offense which the governments of Syria, Iraq, and Iran are guilty of — at least in the eyes of US-Israeli war profiteers — is their dutiful decision not to be fearful slaves to, and victims of, neocon policy and the executive tyranny of US-installed governments. Such well-supported assertions, however, can have no bearing upon the outcome of political and human contingencies in the Middle East, because in the realm of global thuggery, might makes right, and the reigns of the greatest super power war machine lie in the hands of the neocons — firmly tucked away in a paranoid-schizophrenic death-clinch. Thanks to the unnatural phenomenon known as corporate media-government coalescence, US and Israeli war hawks are able to bury the dagger with one arm, and pull the wool over your eyes with the other. They control the language. They can say or do any damn thing they want to, because they are the ones who make the Sun rise and set on anything I, you, they, or anyone else does in this Godforsaken world. They can make one otherwise decent man of The People, like Hugo Chavez or Ismail Haniyeh out to be a war criminal and dictator, whilst painting criminal warlords like Mohammad Dahlan and Ariel Sharon as being worthy of official status and adulation.

Thanks to an overwhelming consensus of media elite favoring the illegal Israeli occupation of Palestine, and U.S. support for it and other "profitable" foreign ventures, we don't have to hear about the daily atrocities and inhuman living conditions forced upon Palestinian People by the apartheid regime of Israel, or that the zionist regime, as a matter of policy, practices anti-Arab ethnic cleansing, and broad-stroke discrimination in all levels of Israeli society. On the contrary, we only hear about the launching of crude rockets into Israel from Gaza, and the "existential threat" of suicide bombers allegedly sponsored by third-world countries. We're made to believe that these actions of so few resistance fighters constitute the collective punishment of all Palestinians by the U.S. government and its so-called "greatest ally in the Middle East".

In Tuesday's meeting with George Bush at The White House, Ehud Olmert and his bodyguard, Bubba, put on a display of Orwellian demagoguery that made the Churchill-Stalin-Roosevelt chats seem genuine and not-so-incestuous. It was an occasion for both men to confirm: 1) their complicity in fomenting, encouraging and supporting violent insurrection within Palestinian society; 2) their self-fulfilling, Supreme authority to collectively and selectively punish the Palestinian People with sanctions and embargoes (or at least to have those things executed by "The Quartet"); 3) their self-granted, righteous prerogative to shun and sabotage Syrian peace efforts and ratchet up the threats against Iran (against the better judgment of the practically unanimous dissent of the rest of the world); and through it all, 4) their ever-improving grasp of hasbara, and the art of reality-inversion and guilt-transference for the sake of allowing the Empire to continue expanding on its pimping-out of the neighborhood.

The Washington Post provides the ready-made if not obligatory "cover" story of the lie-fest: [2]

"President Bush and Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert agreed yesterday on a strategy to prop up the embattled Palestinian government of Mahmoud Abbas with financial aid, eased travel restrictions, moral support and peace talks as they struggled to counter the Hamas takeover of the Gaza Strip."

Ah, how sweet. Too bad it's a wad of fallacy and lies. Truth be told, they "agreed," as would all zioneocon mafiosi, that the existing neocon plan to arm and fund Fatah and its militant tributaries — for the sake of overthrowing the democratically-elected, majority-ruling, Hamas government — has achieved a good portion of its ultimate end (not exactly what they wanted, but close enough), and that it's time to advance to the next tactical phase of pimping out the neighborhood.

For now, however, it's time for a little PR (Propaganda-Reconnaissance) — time for Bush and Olmert to confirm their roles in the perpetual undermining of Palestinian self-determination:

"Bush said the joint U.S.-Israeli approach aims to build up Abbas and his more moderate Fatah party so they 'will be strengthened to the point where they can lead the Palestinians in a different direction, with a different hope.'"
[...]
"'Like you,' Olmert said at Bush's side in the Oval Office, 'I want to strengthen the moderates and cooperate with President Abu Mazen,' as Abbas is commonly known. 'I am going to make every possible effort to cooperate with him and to move forward.' But Olmert emphasized that "a prerequisite for any major development in the future" would be a more serious effort by Abbas to 'fight terror in a most effective way.'"

Time for both leaders to confirm their self-granted, moral and legal authority to collectively-selectively punish the Palestinian People:

". . . Olmert agreed to seek cabinet approval in principle for the release of tax money collected by Israeli authorities on behalf of the Palestinians, adding to the infusion of funds already on the way to Abbas from the United States and Europe, which lifted their embargo on direct aid, according to U.S. officials."

Time for The Washington Post and other mainstream media to matter-of-factly (and without a rock's sense of irony or injustice) report that the Israeli apartheid regime will be extracting even more U.S. taxpayer dollars which will then be used to further collectively punish Palestinians who resist the death clinch and choose the "wrong" leaders:

"Hours later, Bush released a statement pledging to reinforce Israel's military posture with a new 10-year agreement 'that will give Israel the increased assistance it requires to meet the new threats and challenges it faces.'"

Time for King George to, once again, confirm his self-granted prerogative to shun and sabotage (or run, scared, away from) peace efforts, against the better judgment of the rest of the world:

"And Bush rejected suggestions by Syria that he participate in talks between Jerusalem and Damascus aimed at settling regional tensions. 'If the prime minister wants to negotiate with Syria,' Bush said, 'he doesn't need me to mediate.'"

Time for Bush and Olmert to showcase their ever-improving grasp of hasbara and the art of transference and reality inversion: [3]

"'We recognize the president of all the Palestinian people, and that is President Abu Mazen [Abbas],' Bush said. 'He was elected, and he is the president. And, secondly, we recognize that it was Hamas that attacked the unity government. They made a choice of violence. It was their decision that has caused there to be this current situation in the Middle East.'"
[...]
"'It is interesting that extremists attack democracy around the Middle East, whether it is Iraqi democracy, Lebanese democracy, or a potential Palestinian democracy,' he said. 'What that should say to people all around the world is that we are involved in an ideological conflict.'"
[...]
"Olmert emphasized the 'brutality and viciousness' that the Palestinians were displaying toward one another in Gaza. He said Israel had 'been very, very attentive to the humanitarian needs of Gaza.'"

Hurl sack, please...

They are so predictably bald-faced in their self-stroking self-incrimination. Their drunk-with-power bullshit binges are so simple — narrowed-down to "laugh, lie, laugh, lie, hate, laugh, threaten, lie, repeat" — if only to begin to relieve their soulless existence of the crippling guilt of mass-scale, inhuman criminality. Whatever helps you to "catapult the propaganda," there, Georgy. Whatever allows you and your "advisers" to believe that the gallows are avoidable come what may.

Although neocon plans for the complete overthrow of the democratically-elected Hamas government haven't been a complete success, they haven't exactly been a failure. Elliot Abrams didn't do all that leg work for nothing. All that coup-planning with "Palestinian businessmen" — all those arrangements to "secure" the flow of cash and weapons across borders and through neighborhoods and into training camps of Jericho and Ramallah — provided the groundwork for achieving an adequately divisive end. [4]

Needless to say, the level of factional violence in the IOPTs is rising daily; Hamas is blamed for nearly everything; and most importantly, the Palestinian unity government has, predictably, been undermined and quite effectively dissolved (not that it ever had a chance, of course). But don't cry for the Palestinian chore boy, Mohammad Dahlan. All that biting, scratching, and zioneocon ass-kissing to rise above all the other traitor-mercenaries paid off: He's a well-paid thug with credentials. He is 100% zioneocon-approved (installed). You might say he is the chosen ones' chosen one. Some call him the "Palestinian Pinochet". [5][6]

Unsung, is the dog of war, as his job is thankless. All these weapons. So few brave cowards who are willing to suffer the dirty money, the unnecessary blood-shed, and the self-loathing. So naive are the Israeli-Occupied Palestinians who refuse to give in and sell out, for theirs are the dreams of a simpleton: justice, peace, security, and self-determination. Whom do they think they are? Mohammad Dahlan? [7]

Unappreciated is the work of the Prime Minister and the President — they who must tell us, over and over, how much they care about Democracy and The People. Their financiers, corporate electorates, and lapdog media appreciate their Supreme greatness, so why don't the foolish majority? Why are fewer and fewer American People buying their story? Could it be because they're tired of being repeatedly lied into unnecessary and dangerous wars, and tired of their tax money being used to support an apartheid regime and a slow-burn holocaust?

Fret not, all you neoconnivers out there. Mainstream media are still doing a heck of a job of obscuring and omitting true time lines and comprehensive accounts of events in the IOPTs. You can continue cheer leading state terrorism from the table cloth with pride (or at least against very little resistance). [8]

Rest assured, zionazis: It's still a foregone conclusion that any act of aggression against Israel originates from Hamas, Hizballah, or militants associated with either organization, as does any violence against Palestinians. It's still written in stone that all acts of resistance to the Zionist occupation have roots in Tehran and Damascus, so you're still good-to-go on those neocon plans for "re-shaping" the Middle East for "peace". The nukes are still "on the table". It's still okay to bite the lamb and cry wolf. WaPo and Co. still gotcha covered.
