AIPAC trying to suppress Goldstone Report by introducing Resolution 867.
Submitted by Constantine on Fri, 11/06/2009 - 02:48.
AIPAC, the pro Israeli lobby, has been corrupting our politicians far too long and has resulted in more violence than ever between the Israelis and the Palestinians with no sign of any improvement in years ahead. In addition, the Israelis have nearly wiped Gaza and south Lebanon off the map with their disproportionate attacks.
These attacks are the subject of the Goldstone Report which accuses Israel of War Crimes. Not surprising the AIPAC is now trying to suppress the Goldstone Report with H. Res. 867. This bill calls on President Obama to unequivocally oppose the Goldstone Report, but makes no mention of the administration’s call for a credible, independent Israeli investigation into Israeli conduct during Operation Cast Lead.
This bill flies in the face of the growing chorus of Israeli voices, across the political spectrum and in and outside of government, who understand that a credible Israeli investigation is in Israel’s best interest.
So just in case the report gets buried in red tape, you can download it right here.

The original United Nations partition plan created TWO states, a state of Israel and a state of Palestine. Israel, which coveted all the land for itself, rejected the UN partition plan (the first time they defied the United Nations) and Israel was simply declared to exist by David Ben Gurion. 24 hours later, under the prodding of Chaim Weizman, Harry S Truman recognized the new state of Israel.
Israel then demanded all other nations in the region recognize its right to exist. Every other nation in the region agreed to do so, the moment Israel recognized Palestine's right to exist. Israel refused to do so, and there is the crux of the problem for the last 60 years. Israel demands for itself that which it refuses to its neighbors.
"There was no such thing as Palestinians, they never existed." Golda Maier Israeli Prime Minister June 15, 1969
Ben Gurion also warned in 1948 : "We must do everything to insure they ( the Palestinians) never do return." Assuring his fellow Zionists that Palestinians will never come back to their homes. "The old will die and the young will forget."
"We have to kill all the Palestinians unless they are resigned to live here as slaves." Chairman Heilbrun of the Committee for the Re-election of General Shlomo Lahat, the mayor of Tel Aviv, October 1983.
"We declare openly that the Arabs have no right to settle on even one centimeter of Eretz Israel... Force is all they do or ever will understand. We shall use the ultimate force until the Palestinians come crawling to us on all fours." Rafael Eitan, Chief of Staff of the Israeli Defense Forces - Gad Becker, Yediot Ahronot 13 April 1983, New York Times 14 April 1983.
"We must do everything to ensure they [the Palestinian refugees] never do return" David Ben-Gurion, in his diary, 18 July 1948, quoted in Michael Bar Zohar's Ben-Gurion: the Armed Prophet, Prentice-Hall, 1967, p. 157.
"We must use terror, assassination, intimidation, land confiscation, and the cutting of all social services to rid the Galilee of its Arab population." Israel Koenig, "The Koenig Memorandum"
"Jewish villages were built in the place of Arab villages. You do not even know the names of these Arab villages, and I do not blame you because geography books no longer exist. Not only do the books not exist, the Arab villages are not there either. Nahlal arose in the place of Mahlul; Kibbutz Gvat in the place of Jibta; Kibbutz Sarid in the place of Huneifis; and Kefar Yehushua in the place of Tal al-Shuman. There is not a single place built in this country that did not have a former Arab population." Moshe Dayan, address to the Technion, Haifa, reported in Haaretz, April 4, 1969.
"If I were an Arab leader, I would never sign an agreement with Israel. It is normal; we have taken their country. It is true God promised it to us, but how could that interest them? Our God is not theirs. There has been Anti - Semitism, the Nazis, Hitler, Auschwitz, but was that their fault ? They see but one thing: we have come and we have stolen their country. Why would they accept that?" David Ben Gurion (the first Israeli Prime Minister) Quoted by Nahum Goldmann in Le Paraddoxe Juif (The Jewish Paradox), pp121.
"One million Arabs are not worth a Jewish fingernail." -- Rabbi Yaacov Perrin, Feb. 27, 1994 [Source: N.Y. Times, Feb. 28, 1994, p. 1]
Back in 2001, the FBI uncovered the largest spy ring ever found inside the United States, being run by our "friend" Israel. Half-way through arresting the network of spies, 9-11 happened. Carl Cameron broadcast a four-part series on the Israeli spy ring, which included the following quote.
"Evidence linking these Israelis to 9/11 is classified. I cannot tell you about evidence that has been gathered. It's classified information." -- US official quoted in Carl Cameron's Fox News report on the Israeli spy ring and its connections to 9-11.
AIPAC immediately went into action and ordered FOX News to erase the story from their website. FOX News obeyed, even to the point of contacting websites with copies of the news story and threatening legal action if the video that Israel found offensive was not removed. Okay, if you want to act like you have something to hide, fine; I won't stop you.
However, in the wake of AIPAC's own recent spy scandal, the media's willingness to cover up Israel's crimes may be waning in the face of growing public awareness of the media's culpability, and the four-part news story is back up at YouTube for all the world to see.
Of particular note are the very nervous comments of the other FOX newscasters trying to reassure us all that just because Mossad agents were linked to 9-11 was no reason to suspect Israel had anything to do with 9-11, because gracious me, Israel would never DO that soft of thing to its benefactors in the United States, right? Right?
Of course right!
