Attn:
Ms Pletka,
I found that your response on CSPAN this Monday morning (8/15) to the lady
who called from Canada disingenuous, to say the least.
By your response alone you reveal the very characteristics that this caller
was indicating, for it is a common trait by those who support Bush's barely
hidden Middle-East agenda to deflect any criticism that suggests that an
interest in maintaining Israel's domination of the region might be at the
true centre of this Republican administration's phoney attack on Iraq, as 'anti
semitic'.
How low can you go ? When people criticize Israel it has nothing to do with
religion. However, in creating a monotheistic state like Israel's you are
able to make this leap conveniently when the criticism gets too close to home,
in essence calling on the holocaust in order to shut up anyone who dares to see
things differently.
If that does not insult the memory of those millions who died so horribly
and unjustly I don't know what does.The victims of the second world
war's atrocities (it was way back in the 1940's , you may recall) are
probably turning in their graves and screaming in agony for your trangressions
in using their demise as a tool of deception. Building a nation on such
quicksand can only have one outcome.
And then you follow this by putting down the whole nation of Canada (my
country also) on the basis of one caller. In general I do know that Canadians,
like the citizens of many other countries outside the sphere of the U.S. media's
cowardly, self interested propaganda and ommissions, have a much less
brainwashed view of the true agenda of the U.S.'s propping up the $40
billion a year Israeli State to aid its oil grabbing ,militaristic
,political and Christian fueled religious influence agenda in the region.
Furthermore you rant on about the honorable cause of creating democracy in
the Middle East . Do you mean democracies such as Israel's which , despite its
deflective public relations withdrawal from Gaza, continues to colonize
Palestinian territory ??
It seems to me , if my memory serves me correctly, that the George Bush
Republican controlled government attacked Iraq as it claimed they threatened the
security of the post 9/11 USA with their non existent WMD's and had absolutely
nothing at all to do with 'creating democracy' . That having been revealed as a
phoney motive they had to quickly jump tracks and grab another convenient cause
celèbre.
The caller had it right on the money as far as I am concerned and has
flushed you and AEI out for what you are.
