It is not because of their strengths that they have been able to do this… it is because of the weakness of the non-existent anti-Zionist “opposition” in the American Government and American Media.

“More and more, Americans from all walks of life are talking about Israel’s influence in Washington, looking for someone to blame. Americans are angry, feeling powerless, victimized by their own government.
Some of that blame takes the form of Antisemitism, although it is not anti-Semitism but most of it is expressed in healthy skepticism; skepticism of a government showing signs of having been bought. ”Bought” is a harsh word but no other word applies, not anymore. There is no other explanation, not for the policies we are seeing, policies steeped in bias, policies based on support of apartheid, of continual violations of human rights, of International Law, and, now obvious to all, policies that have endangered American security.”
Reading my use of the words Jew and Jews to describe the problem, some Jews are understandably offended by what they consider a generalization which includes the majority of Jews who are just “simple, neutral American Jews who do not support or agree with Israeli policies, Zionism, or war against the Arabs or Muslim,” and did not take a position in support of any of those things, but simply want to “live in peace with everyone.”
Yes, I know, it is “head-in-the-sanding.” But, as long as Israel, Zionism, the ADL (Anti-Defamation League), and all the vested Zionist interests in the US, can keep the majority of heads in the sand, and not up and out in the streets arming, arguing and protesting against them, they are on a winning roll!
I really suspect that words like “Jew,” and “Jewish,” “Judaism,” “Israeli,” “Israelite,” “Zionist,” “Zionism,” etc. are all pretty Protean terms, spandex kind of words, of which one size fits all, and they are usable for all or any occasions, as the user finds convenient, fit or necessary… the manipulability (I just made that word up) and plastic nature of the words (both coming and going) reserved of course, for “Jews and defenders of Zion Only.”
It comes to my mind that the Israeli/Zionist problem (both in the US and in Israel) has grown to a sufficient degree of threat to World Peace that it is no longer sufficient that anyone be simply not a Zionist or an Israeli supporter anymore. It is insufficient to simply NOT be pro-Zionist or Pro-Israeli. In order to counter the threat everyone must become an active anti-Zionist and an anti-Israeli. If these thugs are insisting on a “Jewish” state, shouldn’t we have some idea what it IS?
Nazism did not thrive and survive in Germany in the late thirties and early forties because the National Socialist Party became the majority party, and the majority of “Good Germans” became Nazis. They were not, and they did not! But, as a minority, Nazis and Nazism still outnumbered the active anti-Nazi people, and overpowered the silent majority who took no stand, and they “won” by default over that large and silent majority who, like Reverend Niemöller, “took no sides in the issue,” and simply wished and prayed to be left to live in peace.
So, the vast majority of people in the UK and the US are not pro-war, pro Israel, or pro-Zionist, neocon or pro-neocon, but the neo-cons and pro-neocons outnumber the active anti-neocons, and anti-Israeli war party in numbers and voice… and they carry the day, rubberstamping apartheid in Palestine.
The power forces has developed to a degree that they are becoming a real threat to our civilization, to use the term loosely, and it is not because of a majority power, but because there is no major active opposition. It is a loss by default of one inadequately active minority, to a slightly smaller but even more active minority.
Doing nothing, is akin to being a pro-neocon.
I suppose the only solution is to keep on keeping on, educating and informing! Perhaps we can get some of the sand-headers, and “petitioners for peace” to pull their heads out of the sand, and become activists, shouting for and demanding peace. There have been many metaphors created alluding to “guilt by inactivity,” and this simply outlines another one… but it defines the crux of the problem, and why we are making no headway against it, even though we recognize that Zionists are a small minority of a small minority group of people, worldwide as well as in the US, and their powers of control far outweigh their numbers. It is not because of their strengths that they have been able to do this… it is because of the weakness of the non-existent anti-Zionist “opposition” in the American Government and American Media.

Zionazi Terrorists do not really qualify as a “Lawful Government”. Having endured Prof. Richard K. Armeys’ lectures on ECONOMICs for an entire semester, never once hearing of the “JEWISH PERFIDY”, er um Economic Terrorists operating a cabal of economic terrorist REGIONAL BANKS, and further having produced the results of a MASS MURDER investigation for Members of Congress, and the so-called Texas Delegation, [The Waco Mass Murder Case]…it became evident that Congressman Armey and all the “crack whore congress” [AIPAC] were working for the economic terrorists who paid them…1] – To look the other way, and 2] – To maintain DOUBLE STANDARDS…I always wondered as a young man, why Would Jesus love young Negroes, and Mexicans, and Asians, and Native Born Americans, but Hate Palestinians ? Something didn’t seem to be right with that one. Sure Education helps, but as a righteously indignant Texan, I have employed the confrontational method – ESPECIALLY IN PUBLICK – Try to shame the worthless – SHAMELESS “CRACK WHORES” for the Zionazi terrorists. Or whatever you find that actually works, and produces results, specifically someone who removes the stinky mud from their eyes and ears and can recognize a LYING MURDERER when they see them in REAL TIME..

Israel is the only country that doesn’t have to be multicultural yet the Jewish controlled American congress and big business demands it of America – meanwhile our country is quickly starting to look very third world. Its time to stop this now – AIPAC owns the American congress. I’m speaking as a non-muslim American here. America needs a third viable political party that is going to represent the rights of middle class Americans. AIPAC secures 3 billion dollars of American taxpayers money to fund Israel’s war of genocide against the Palestinians. Christian American youth are dying in the middle east for Israel and don’t even know what they are fighting for – they think its for a terrorist threat to America. What idiots we are – wake up America and take your country back from both AIPAC and the government that has been bought by them. Israel is a tick on our back…lets take back our country.

IF, Israel wanted peace, it would FLOOD Concentration Camp GAZA with food and healthy economic activity. Did America launch massive assaults and shoot Black American Women and Children dead in the streets or use Jet Fighters and launch Artillery and Missiles into CIVILIAN areas? NO! Israel does so because Israel wants Ethnic Cleansing, NOT peace. Where is Israel’s Recognition of the PALESTINIAN’S RIGHT to EXIST!? Israel demands the Palestinians “repudiate” this and that …Does Israel REPUDIATE the TORAH???? Israel was White RACIST, APARTHEID, South Africa’s ONLY ally, trading weapons, torture techniques, NUCLEAR TECHNOLOGY, with them. Today Israel continues Racist APARTHEID with it’s wall. Israel enforces laws that are straight out of Nazi Germany such as Palestinians must have different colored ID cards and license plates, JUST like the yellow stars the Jews WAIL about having to wear. Palestinians have to use separate roads, IDENTICAL to Black OR Whites Only drinking faucets.
Israel and South Africa were virtually twinned as military allies for Pretoria helped supply Israel militarily in the immediacy of its 1973 setback and Israel came to support apartheid South Africa at the height of sanctions with weaponry and technology – from naval ships and the conversion of supersonic fighter planes to assistance in building six nuclear bombs and the creation of a thriving arms industry. Israel resembles apartheid South Africa at its zenith – even surpassing its brutality, house demolitions, removal of communities, targeted assassinations, massacres, imprisonment and torture of its opponents and the aggression against neighbouring states.
Israel just PRETENDS to care about African Americans (but look how Israel treats Blacks at home), so they can STEAL the taxdollars that SHOULD have been repairing schools and infrastructure and providing police protection in the Cities. Year after year BILLIONS of African American Tax dollars buy more APARTHEID-suppression for the NATIVE PEOPLE of PALESTINE instead of improving life for the Black American People who earned those dollars.
“It is unacceptable that nations made up of people who have only just come down from the trees should take themselves for world leaders . . . How can such primitive beings have an opinion of their own?” – Yitzhak Shamir, in reference to the black African nations who voted in support of the 1975 U.N. resolution, which denounced Zionism as a form of racism, in Yediot Ahronot, November 14, 1975.

Ethiopian Jewish student – not allowed to study at new school
Several months ago, a religious school in the illegal Israeli settlement of Immanuel was criticized for segregating white Jewish students from non-white Jewish students in classes. Originally, the school was fined for this policy of racial segregation, because the school was state funded. Now, the Israeli education ministry has agreed with the white parents’ request to allow the school to continue with its racial discrimination under private funding.
There is no law preventing racial discrimination by priyvate organizations, even schools, in Israel.
The Israeli court has interpreted these laws to also apply to illegal West bank settlements, like Immanuel, which are located in areas that are supposed to be under Palestinian control. The Palestinian Authority does not allow racial discrimination, but due to the Israeli military occupation of the Palestinian Territories, it has no authority over the area in question. 74 white girls who have been studying in a building next to the school will now be allowed to study in whites-only classrooms that are privately funded, as their parents claim they do not want their girls to study in racially-mixed classrooms.

Since Israel now demands a “LOYALTY OATH” of it’s citizens, the World should demand a LOYALTY OATH of all Jews within their borders, since they are NOTORIOUS for their DUAL-loyalties.
