This latest development with Brzezinski provides more evidence that his political network almost certainly had nothing to do with 9/11, if 9/11 was, as it appears to have been, an inside job and a false flag op in the tradition of Operation Suzannah, the USS Liberty attack and the World Trade Center bombing. Brzezinski (and Carter, and Mearsheimer, and Walt, and Scowcroft, and Odom) are up against formidable odds, however: the Israel lobby possesses ironclad financial control over the Republican and Democratic Parties, the mainstream media, and much (probably most) of the alternative media. Salon and The Nation, for instance, recently killed Christopher Ketcham's story on Urban Moving Systems and the Israeli art students. See this: http://www.democracynow.org/article.pl?sid=07/02/08/1610254 The lobby has made it abundantly clear that it would love to use martial law to imprison and execute Carter, Brzezinski and every major figure in American politics who has opposed it or even gently questioned or disagreed with it about American foreign policy in the Mideast. The level of hate-filled verbal abuse, for instance, that has been directed at Jimmy Carter in recent weeks in lobby media outlets has been simply incredible. So, all of this is clearly heading towards a huge explosion. I suspect that when the dust clears, the lobby will regret having escalated matters to the level it has. Somewhere along the line the lobby went over the edge, without noticing. It's probably too late at this point for it to undue the damage it has done to itself and to the United States. And if we attack Iran at the behest of Israel and the neocons -- oh boy. Efforts within the Jewish political establishment to change course, as described by Phil Weiss, are probably much too little, much too late. The main question in play: will the lobby manage to take down and destroy the United States along with it? Quite possibly. Certainly it will spare no effort to do so and it commands many powerful resources. In George W. Bush and Dick Cheney it has found two perfect tools. tim_howells_1000 <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: Welcome back! I was getting pretty sick of having to dig out information for myself, Sean. I'm sure you've seen this already but Zbig has warned that the Bush administration may stage a phony "terrorist" attack, blame it on Iran, and start WW3. Pretty scary, considering the source. Here's the article from WSWS: http://www.wsws.org/articles/2007/feb2007/brze-f02.shtml And here's the full text of Zbig's congressional testimony: http://www.senate.gov/~foreign/testimony/2007/BrzezinskiTestimony070201.pdf Tim Howells ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ No virus found in this incoming message.
