ISRAEL – THE CANARY IN THE COALMINE

As the courageous Dutch MP, Geert Wilders says, Israel is the canary in the coalmine regarding Islam. They are fighting not only for their own right to exist and be free, but also for all the rest of Western Civilization. The morons in the so-called mainstream media misrepresent the Israeli position every chance they get and always present the Palestinians in a favorable light.

I admit that at 23 years old I was not as into politics as I am now. Much to my shame, I voted for Carter instead of Nixon (what a young fool I was) but I did not know that later, Nixon was responsible for a very heroic act. Read below from an article I recently received from a colleague.

Thirty-Six Years Ago Today, Richard Nixon Saved Israel – but Got No Credit. Jason Maoz

Precise details of what transpired in Washington during the first week of the Yom Kippur War, launched by Egypt and Syria on October 6, 1973, are hard to come by, in no small measure owing to conflicting accounts given by Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and Secretary of Defense James Schlesinger regarding their respective roles. What is clear, from the preponderance of information provided by those directly involved in the unfolding events, is that President Richard Nixon — overriding inter-administration objections and bureaucratic inertia – implemented a breathtaking transfer of arms, code-named operation Nickel Grass, that over a four-week period, involved hundreds of jumbo U.S. military aircraft delivering more than 22,000 tons of armaments. This was accomplished, noted Walter J. Boyne in an article in the December 1998 issue of Air Force Magazine, while “Washington was in the throes of not only post-Vietnam moralizing on Capitol Hill, but also the agony of Watergate.  Four days into the war, Washington was blindsided again by another political disaster – the forced resignation of Vice President Spiro Agnew.” “Both Kissinger and Nixon wanted to do [the airlift],” said former CIA deputy director Vernon Walters, “but Nixon gave it the greater sense of urgency.  He said, ‘You get the stuff to Israel.  Now. Now.’”

Boyne, in his book, The Two O’Clock War, described a high-level White House meeting on October 9: As preoccupied as he was with Watergate, Nixon came straight to the point, announcing that Israel must not lose the war.  He ordered that the deliveries of supplies, including aircraft, be sped up and that Israel be told that it could freely expend all of its consumables — ammunition, spare parts, fuel, and so forth — in the certain knowledge that these would be completely replenished by the United States without any delay.

White House Chief of Staff Alexander Haig concurred: As soon as the scope and pattern of Israeli battle losses emerged, Nixon ordered that all destroyed equipment be made up out of U.S. stockpiles, using the very best weapons America possessed.  Whatever it takes, he told Kissinger…save Israel. “It was Nixon who did it,” recalled Nixon’s acting special counsel, Leonard Garment. “I was there. As bureaucratic bickering between the State and Defense departments was going back and forth, Nixon said, this is insane. He just ordered Kissinger,

 “Get your ass out of here and tell those people to move.”

When Schlesinger initially wanted to send just three transports to Israel because he feared anything more would alarm the Arabs and the Soviets, Nixon snapped: “We are going to get blamed just as much for three as for 300.  Get them in the air, now.”

Haig, in his memoir Inner Circles, wrote that Nixon, frustrated with the initial delays in implementing the airlift and aware that the Soviets had begun airlifting supplies to Egypt and Syria, summoned Kissinger and Schlesinger to the Oval Office on October 12 and “banished all excuses.”

The president asked Kissinger for a precise accounting of Israel’s military needs, and Kissinger proceeded to read aloud from an itemized list. “Double it,” Nixon ordered. “Now get the hell out of here and get the job done.” Later, informed of yet another delay — this one because of disagreements in the Pentagon over the type of planes to be used for the airlift — an incensed Nixon shouted at Kissinger, “[Expletive] it, use every one we have.  Tell them to send everything that can fly.”

Nixon acted despite threats of reprisal by Arab oil producers — indeed, the day after Nixon asked Congress for an emergency appropriation of $2.2 billion for Israel, Saudi Arabia’s King Faisal announced an embargo of oil to the U.S. — not to mention Europe’s overwhelming opposition to aiding Israel.

Some revisionists have taken to claiming Nixon’s actions on behalf of Israel were prompted by Golda Meir, who supposedly threatened to go public with all manner of juicy political and personal information she had on the president.  Another commonly cited blackmail scenario, popularized by the play Golda’s Balcony, has Meir putting the squeeze on Nixon by threatening to use nuclear weapons.

But Mordechai Gazit, who at the time of the Yom Kippur War was director general of the Israeli Foreign Ministry and the Prime Minister’s Office, told authors Gerald Strober and Deborah Hart Strober in Nixon: An Oral History of His Presidency: “The airlift was decided not because we asked for it.  Our relations with the United States were not at a point where we could have asked for an airlift; this was beyond our imagination.”

As for Meir herself, to the end of her life she referred to Nixon as “my president” and told a group of Jewish leaders in Washington shortly after the war: “For generations to come, all will be told of the miracle of the immense planes from the United States bringing in the materiel that meant life to our people.”

Wrote Nixon biographer Stephen E. Ambrose: Those were momentous events in world history. Had Nixon not acted so decisively, who can say what would have happened?  The Arabs probably would have recovered at least some of the territory they had lost in 1967, perhaps all of it.  They might have even destroyed Israel.  But whatever the might-have-been, there is no doubt that Nixon made it possible for Israel to win, at some risk to his own reputation and at great risk to the American economy. He knew that his enemies would never give him credit for saving Israel. He did it anyway.

How times have changed.

I believe we are a critical point in world history. Clearly we have an administration that is anti-Israel and pro-Islam. America is crumbling economically, with the aid of the enemy within. Islam has been on the march in Europe for decades in a stealth jihad of migration, and this administraoin just allowed for a huge migration of palestinians ino the US. Islam is pushing its agenda for Sharia Law all over Europe and eveninot the US. Several countries have already allowed it to creep in, specifically Holland and the UK. The UN is decidedly anti-American, Anti-Israel and anti-Western Civilization. The only country actively fighting this evil menace is Israel, and even they have to combat the left in their own country and government.

Americans – be forewarned and forearmed with information, courage and whatever else it will take to defeat this enemy. We will get no help from this administration. ……..and get ready to be active in 2010.

Will “Dear Leader” force the US to submit to the UN

I have just finished reading Dick Morris’s book “Catastrophe” and am in the midst of reading Michelle Malkin’s “Culture Of Corruption”. I recommend both enthusiastically. They both reveal considerable proof of what is going on in the halls of power in our nation’s capital. It is very clear that what is happening in Washington DC is what has happened in many third world countries when a new, supposed revolutionary group takes power. The new group begins to loot the treasury of the country as quickly as possible.

With the Chicago political Mafiosi in power, the corruption that is well known in Al Capone’s old stomping grounds is now running rampant through the constitution and the treasury. Your blood will boil at the revelations in these books. The incredibly widespread corruption, cronyism and outright – in your face – deception, is only exceeded by their manipulations on the world stage to bring the US to its knees and make it subservient to the UN. And they are getting away with it because the US citizenry is asleep at the wheel.

They are using every liberal tool in their arsenal to bankrupt the US and subjugate its citizenry. But the main tool they are using to subvert the constitution and force submission to the UN is “Climate Change”. Please clink on the link below to see what Lord Muncton of the UK says on this subject in a speech at Bethel University in St. Paul, MN.

Then pray for us all, and prepare to fight them at the ballot box in 2010 if it is not too late.

ENERGY INDEPENDENCE IS AVAILABLE NOW!

This is a reprint from AtlasShrugs.com, the great Pamela Gellar’s blog.

The U. S. Geological Service issued a report in April (’08) that only scientists and oil men knew was coming, but man was it big. It was a revised report (hadn’t been updated since ’95) on how much oil was in this area of the western 2/3 of North Dakota ; western South Dakota ; and extreme eastern Montana ….. check THIS out:

The Bakken is the largest domestic oil discovery since Alaska ‘s Prudhoe Bay , and has the potential to eliminate all American dependence on foreign oil. The Energy Information Administration (EIA) estimates it at 503 billion barrels. Even if just 10% of the oil is recoverable… at $107 a barrel, we’re looking at a resource base worth more than $5.3 trillion.

‘When I first briefed legislators on this, you could practically see their jaws hit the floor. They had no idea..’ says Terry Johnson, the Montana Legislature’s financial analyst.

‘This sizable find is now the highest-producing onshore oil field found in the past 56 years’ reports, The Pittsburgh Post Gazette. It’s a formation known as the Williston Basin , but is more commonly referred to as the ‘Bakken.’ And it stretches from Northern Montana, through North Dakota and into Canada . For years, U. S. oil exploration has been considered a dead end. Even the ‘Big Oil’ companies gave up searching for major oil wells decades ago. However, a recent technological breakthrough has opened up the Bakken’s massive reserves…. and we now have access of up to 500 billion barrels. And because this is light, sweet oil, those billions of barrels will cost Americans just $16 PER BARREL! That’s enough crude to fully fuel the American economy for 2041 years straight. 2. And if THAT didn’t throw you on the floor, then this next one should – because it’s from TWO YEARS AGO!

U. S. Oil Discovery- Largest Reserve in the World! Stansberry Report Online – 4/20/2006

Hidden 1,000 feet beneath the surface of the Rocky Mountains lies the largest untapped oil reserve in the world. It is more than 2 TRILLION barrels. On August 8, 2005 President Bush mandated its extraction. In three and a half years of high oil prices none has been extracted. With this motherload of oil why are we still fighting over off-shore drilling?

They reported this stunning news: We have more oil inside our borders, than all the other proven reserves on earth. Here are the official estimates:

– 8-times as much oil as Saudi Arabia
– 18-times as much oil as Iraq
– 21-times as much oil as Kuwait
– 22-times as much oil as Iran
– 500-times as much oil as Yemen
– and it’s all right here in the Western United States .

 HOW can this BE? HOW can we NOT BE extracting this? Because the environmentalists and others have blocked all efforts to help America become independent of foreign oil! Again, we are letting a small group of people dictate our lives and our economy…..WHY?

James Bartis, lead researcher with the study says we’ve got more oil in this very compact area than the entire Middle East -more than 2 TRILLION barrels untapped. That’s more than all the proven oil reserves of crude oil in the world today, reports The Denver Post.

 SO, WITH ALL THIS AVAILABLE TO AMERICA, WHY AREN’T WE ENERGY INDEPENDENT?

For decades, Democrats have blocked efforts to responsibly develop this nation’s energy resources, transforming vast areas of opportunity into “The No Zone.”

Democrats have blocked the development of new sources of petroleum.
Democrats have blocked drilling in ANWR.
Democrats have blocked drilling off the coast of Florida.
Democrats have blocked drilling off of the east coast.
Democrats have blocked drilling off of the west coast.
Democrats have blocked drilling off the Alaskan coast.
Democrats have blocked building oil refineries.
Democrats have blocked clean nuclear energy production.
Democrats have blocked clean coal production.

             But they’re funding projects in Brazil. The Wall Street Journal:

The U.S. is going to lend billions of dollars to Brazil’s state-owned oil company, Petrobras, to finance exploration of the huge offshore discovery in Brazil’s Tupi oil field in the Santos Basin near Rio de Janeiro. Brazil’s planning minister confirmed that White House National Security Adviser James Jones met this month with Brazilian officials to talk about the loan.

The U.S. Export-Import Bank tells us it has issued a “preliminary commitment” letter to Petrobras in the amount of $2 billion and has discussed with Brazil the possibility of increasing that amount. Ex-Im Bank says it has not decided whether the money will come in the form of a direct loan or loan guarantees. Either way, this corporate foreign aid may strike some readers as odd, given that the U.S. Treasury seems desperate for cash and Petrobras is one of the largest corporations in the Americas.

Chevron U.S.A. Inc. announced that the Discoverer Clear Leader — an ultra-deepwater drillship — has begun work in the deepwater U.S. Gulf of Mexico, allowing Chevron to expand its search for new domestic sources of energy.
Chevron is forced to develop new technology to drill in the Gulf’s deepwater since most of the US is off limits to oil companies — thanks to Democrats.
(There’s video at the link.)

Barack Obama’s pal George Soros, “The Black Hand,” is heavily vested in PBR, Brazilian Petroleum, which Obama loaned money to through the US Import/Export bank – drill offshore oil and development. Which they wouldn’t do here in Alaska or Utah.

George Soros top five holdings:

1.Petroleo Brasileiro S.A.Petrobras (PBR) – 9,818,323 shares, 15.42% of the total portfolio
2.Hess Corp. (HES) – 5,123,198 shares, 10.56% of the total portfolio
3.Petrolo Brasileiro S.A.Petrobras (PBR-A) – 5,884,700 shares, 7.53% of the total portfolio
4.Potash Corp. of Saskatchewan Inc. (POT) – 1,978,053 shares, 7.06% of the total portfolio
5.Plains Exploration & Production Company (PXP) – 6,526,400 shares, 6.84% of the total portfolio

The  absolute corruption of the absolute power of the Soros-Obama connections.

THE INMATES ARE RUNNING THE ASYLUM

The Secretary of Education was on the Colbert Report last night stating that he and Obama want to instill more responsibility in the education system by parents, children, teachers and administrators.What a laugher, from the very people (liberals) who have spent the past 40 years, slowly and deliberately inflicting almost irreparable damage to an education system that was once the best in the world.

The worst offenses are the social engineering programs such as “Forced Busing” in the 70’s. This program took white children from their home neighborhoods, added hours to their school day (not to mention the pollution from bus engines), in order to deliver them to schools in primarily black neighborhoods. The program also called for transporting black children from their home neighborhoods to primarily white neighborhoods. This was all done to provide a better education for all. But the program was counter-intuitive to the American philosophy of keeping responsibility for one’s life as close to home as possible.  The American idea is that local responsibility is better. The further away from the problem the responsibility is, the worse the problem becomes.

Other social engineering programs include: The free breakfast and lunch programs which continues the teaching of dependency that so many at risk children already learn at home, in the welfare state; The substituting of reading, writing and arithmetic with courses such as “green” education, sex education, alternative lifestyles tolerance education; not to mention the plethora of fluffy courses that came into the University level in a tsunami of “openness” and political correctness in the 60’s and 70’s.

I remember when I was in middle school, I attended a Catholic grade school in Maryland. The nuns, who were the teachers and administrators back then, ran a tight ship to say the least. My 5^th and 6^th grade classes had 40 to 45 children in it and we all were encourage to excel. But the real heroes were nuns who taught the 1^st and 2^nd grade classes. My younger brother was in 1^st grade at the time in a class of sixty – yes, 60. I went to my brother’s classroom one morning to deliver a message and remember being amazed at what I saw. There was a sea of 1^st graders with the nun at the front. Every child was in their seat, quietly doing their work.

But today, after years of undermining parental authority, teaching “self-esteem” instead of academics (which simply produces self-confident dummies) and destroying class discipline, it is a wonder anything can be taught at all. In my later years, just out of college, I was taking some education courses and acting as a student teacher at Inglewood HS in the LA area. I walked into a Spanish class and found the class in chaos while the teacher was sitting on his desk reading a book. Later that day, I asked him about what I saw and his response was astonishing. He said that this was the norm. He was not allowed to discipline them into behaving so he had given up and was simply trying to survive the experience, collect his paycheck, and plan for a career change as soon as possible.

Incredibly, the fools who brought us to this point now want to “correct” the problem by forcing more of the same garbage on our children with longer school days and school years. This will allow for a more thorough indoctrination.

My prediction: Home-schooling will at first skyrocket and then be federally outlawed so that we will be forced to submit our children to politically correct indoctrination. George Orwell – where are you?
