Michael Piper and Final Judgment

[Magda Hassan]

Magda, I was going to reply to your post (#43) but Albert beat me to it.

Seriously, it's absurd to compare the influence of Quakers, Anglicans and Atheists etc, to the influence Israel and its lobby exerts on the US Congress.

I was responding to your mention that some Zionists have investments in the arms industry. No reference to the lobby.

No other group or nation recieves the financial support from America that Israel does. Which other group or lobby can force the passage of such a generous resolution through Congress by a margin of 460 to 2?

But not in 1963. Or even in 1967. It was just one of many. The amount it receives now indicates its perceived importance to the west to remain as the western outpost in the middle east and cause disruption and divisions.

No other nation can make Congressmen quake in their boots with threats of adverse media coverage or funding pullouts the way Israel can.

Congressmen have never been known for their spine or principles. They'll bow and scrape to the Koch bothers too. And the Christian right. And who ever else is paying their real salary and pulling their strings.

And as we all now know, no country boasts a more sophisticated and ruthless intelligence apparatus, specialising in assassination and false flag operations, than Israel. The CIA couldn't even knock off Castro, for God's sake.

Castro was smart man. The KGB were smart. The Hauptverwaltung Aufklärung of the GDR were smart. Mossad is smart too. But not invincible or perfect. Plenty of fuck ups too. You've really bought in to their PR. I have to admire them for that. You get to do their work on their behalf and they don't have to pay you a thing. Jewish chutzpah at work. Got to love it.
