Carly Fiorina and Ben Carson: Give Us Netanyahu’s Derriere or Give Us Death!

…by Jonas E. Alexis

At the end of his 1775 speech, Patrick Henry said, “Forbid it, Almighty God! I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty, or give me death!”

Fast forward to 2014. The GOP seemed to have turned Henry’s statement on its head by implicitly or indirectly saying, “Give us Netanyahu’s derriere or give us death!”

As some indication of the political depravity of the so-called conservative movement, the British newspaper the Guardian declared that “to strengthen their résumés before formally announcing their 2016 plans,”[1] Republican presidential contenders started to politically prostrate before the Israeli regime. Former business executive and politician Carly Fiorinia has done just that:

“Asked what she would first do if she became president, Fiorina said she would call the prime minister of Israel, ‘because how we treat our friends is reassuring to our other friends, and because I think this administration [the Obama administration] has made the world a more dangerous place.’”[2]

In a similar vein, Ben Carson, who got retired from his profession as a surgeon, said:

“I would make it very clear that Israel and the United States have a long, cordial relationship, and I don’t think we should ever leave the Israelis in a position of wondering whether we support them.”[3]

Long and cordial relationship? Perhaps Carson needs to go back to his successful profession and continue to accomplish great things there.[4] His bold statement above is an infallible sign that Carson is willing to commit moral and political promiscuity. And perhaps this could be an infallible sign that they should never let scientists and surgeons get out of the lab and turn into politics without a thorough historical knowledge and wisdom.

Does Carson mean to tell us that he never heard of the bombing of the King David hotel in 1946? How about the Lavon Affair in 1954? Or the assault on the U.S. Liberty in 1967?[5] Is Carson going to tell us that he does not know that Israel has been stealing weapons from the U.S. from time immemorial?[6] Does he not know that the Mossad has been operating in much of Europe and America?[7]

Former CIA official Philip Giraldi documents case after case where Mossad operations in the United States were well known among the intelligence community, but no one was willing to do something about it.[8] Both the San Francisco Chronicle and the Israeli newspaper Haaretz tell us:

“Despite inarguable ties between the U.S. and its closest ally in the Middle East and despite statements from U.S. politicians trumpeting the friendship, U.S. national security officials consider Israel to be, at times, a frustrating ally and a genuine counterintelligence threat…

“The CIA considers Israel its No. 1 counterintelligence threat in the agency’s Near East Division, the group that oversees spying across the Middle East, according to current and former officials”[9]

Over the past decade,

“Israel has been implicated in U.S. criminal espionage cases and disciplinary proceedings against CIA officers and blamed in the presumed death of an important spy in Syria for the CIA during the administration of President George W. Bush…

“Unlike Iran or Syria, for example, Israel as a steadfast U.S. ally enjoys access to the highest levels of the U.S. government in military and intelligence circles…This means the CIA believes that U.S. national secrets are safer from other Middle Eastern governments than from Israel.”[10]

The report concludes, “Israel is not America’s closest ally, at least when it comes to whom Washington trusts with the most sensitive national security information.”[11]

Does Carson not know that Israel, according to Israeli scholar Avner Cohen, created Hamas?[12] Doesn’t he know that Israel has a long history of “stealing passports and other IDs to carry out false flag operations”?[13]

In New Zealand in 2004 Mossad agents Eli Cara and Uriel Kelman attempted to steal New Zealand passports, which created friction between Israel and New Zealand.[14] Fran O’Sullivan of the New Zealand Herald wrote,

“Israel was caught using Canadian passports as part of a botched attempt to assassinate a Jordanian leader in 1997.”[15]

O’Sullivan continued to say that the New Zealand Herald has found that, among other things:

“A high-profile Israeli MP believes the state of Israel ‘wants to do killings’ but should penetrate hostile countries using identities gained with the help of friendly intelligence agencies. Charges of anti-Jewish sentiment against the Clark Government within New Zealand and Israel could just as easily be laid against most European nations, judging by their UN voting records.

“Some New Zealanders living in Israel are prepared to ‘lend’ their New Zealand passports to Mossad to help fight terrorists. Israeli security analysts believe Mossad was operating a ‘passport factory’ here and in Israel, using disabled people’s identities.”[16]

Israel in 2005 admitted that the Mossad had a black operation in New Zealand.[17] Lord Rothschild did the same thing in Britain, stealing

“‘all major UK/US weapons developments in the Second World War,’ including biological warfare, the atomic bomb and radar.”[18]

Rothschild, who died in 1990, “was involved ‘in so many aspects of spying that he seemed like a superagent, sabotaging every Western intelligence initiative for 20 years after the war.’”[19]

In 2010, the Mossad used fake passports from Britain, Ireland, and France to assassinate Mahmoud al-Mabhouh.[20] The Iranian dissidents who assassinated the Iranian scientists have since confessed that they were trained by the Mossad in Israel.[21] We are seeing how Israel has instructed its embassies in at least ten European countries to recruit 1,000 members to promote pro-Israel activist propaganda.[22]

In 1976, the BBC recounted that Israel was behind the hijackers at Entebbe airport in Uganda who took control of an Air France flight with Israeli passengers. Israel collaborated with the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine in order to hijack the plane and blamed it on other entities. Three Israeli civilians died in the process.[23] When the hostages were finally rescued, Israel was praised for the mission, called “Operation Jonathan.”

Yonatan Netanyahu, Benjamin Netanyahu’s brother, was the unit leader who was killed in the false flag operation.[24] In a document from the National Archives, D.H. Colvin of the Paris embassy wrote that Israel was involved in this terrorist act for a specific reason.

“The operation was designed to torpedo the PLO’s standing in France and to prevent what they see as a growing rapprochement between the PLO and the Americans.”[25]

Even in the United States, Jewish terrorist groups such as the Stern Gang tried to assassinate Harris Truman, according to Truman’s daughter Margaret.[26] So, Carson and others need to know the facts before they can tell us anything about the Middle East. As Soraya Sepahpour-Ulrich put it, “When it comes to Israel’s political agenda, no sacrifice is too great.”[27]

In 2012, it was shown that the Mossad was behind the bombing which took the lives of top security officials in Damascus on July 18, 2012. Members of the Syrian rebels/terrorists admitted that Israel played an influential role in the bombing.

Louay al-Mokdad, one of the leaders of the opposition forces, declared that they placed the explosives in the meeting room “days ago” and had intended to take the life of Bashar al-Assad. Al-Assad did not take part in the meeting as planned, but others lost their lives when the bomb went off.[28]

Yet an editorial in the New York Times declared, “There were conflicting news reports about the cause of the explosion. State television reported that it was carried out by a suicide bomber, while the main armed opposition group said explosive devices were detonated remotely.”[29]

A suicide bomber? Nor are we told who might have detonated the explosives “remotely.” The Mossad was also reported to have been an accomplice in blowing up the Fordow enrichment plant in Iran.[30]

Carson and others cannot just wiggle out of this historical puzzle. Will he ever pick up the scholarly study Terrorism in Israel, which meticulously and methodically documents that the Dreadful Few have been involved in terrorism and assassination since the first century?[31] For example, the terrorist activities of the Sicarians in the first century got resurrected during the Bolshevik Revolution, where Jewish revolutionaries attempted

“to undermine the tsar’s rule. One of the most famous insurgents was Dmitri Bogrov, who came from a Jewish family in Kiev. On September 14, 1911, Bogrov shot dead the tsar’s prime minister, Pyotr Stolypin, while he was attending a performance at the Kiev Opera House. The killing took place in the presence of Tsar Nicholas II, who was sitting close to the prime minister, and it was designed to incite political instability and ultimately inspire revolutionary fervor in Russia.”[32]

Ten days later, Bogrov was executed.

Terrorist activity did not die out with Bogrov. The Weatherman Underground movement was another largely Jewish terrorist group that sought to undermine American involvement in Vietnam.

“Members of the movement, many of them Jews, did not hesitate in engaging in classic terrorist tactics such as planting explosive charges and committing arson in order to advance their ideological goals. The Jewish terrorists who operated in tsarist Russia and those in Nixon-era America shared the fact that they were young men and women with a developed sense of political awareness and were wholly committed to the political concerns that plagued their compatriots.”[33]

They justified their terrorist acts “by claiming revenge for the harm done to their people or the need for self-defense.”[34]

Yet again Jewish terrorism continued “with the resurgence of the Jewish settlement project in modern-day Eretz Israel (Land of Israel).”[35] Both violence and terrorism were considered “a crucial component in the evolution of the Jewish nation,”[36] and both violence and terrorism, as we shall see, eventually morphed into ethnic cleansing.

“By the time the Arab Revolt began to flag in 1939, Etzel had become highly skilled in executing acts of terrorism.”

During the span of three years, the group carried out sixty operations that took the lives of more than 120 Palestinians and injured hundreds more.”[37] Etzel also “targeted British police and army men known for their tough attitudes toward Jewish prisoners.”[38]

As we are beginning to see, from the formation of Israel all the way to our modern era, terrorism has played a central force in the political and ideological landscape of Israel, and Israel’s support of terrorist groups such as the MEK is a manifestation of that tradition.

More history lesson. The late Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Shamir was a member of a terrorist organization called the Stern Gang that led to the assassination of British Resident Minister in the Middle East Lord Moyne in August 1944. Moyne was Winston Churchill’s representative in Cairo.[39] Since the British did not keep their promise of helping the Jewish people establish a Jewish state, British ambassadors such as Moyne had to go.

“The target of Lord Moyne was not chosen at random. The notion of assassinating a high-profile British figure in the Middle East had already been conceived by Avraham (Yair) Stern, leader of the Lehi [a terrorist group], as far back as 1941 and three years before Moyne had even assumed his duties in this role.”[40]

One of the organization’s jobs was to get involved “in clandestine activities,” including terrorist acts “against the British.”[41] Three months earlier, they attempted to assassinate British High Commissioner Sir Harold MacMichael. Shamir was implicated in those terrorist acts,[42] as well as being linked to the death of Swedish Count Folke Bernadotte and the bombing of the King David Hotel in 1946 that took the lives of 91 people. To save his skin, he fled to Ethiopia and French Somaliland until 1948.[43]

When Shamir passed away in the summer of 2012, Shimon Peres declared that he was a “brave hero.” Similarly, Benjamin Netanyahu asserted that Shamir

“belonged to the generation of giants who established the State of Israel and fought for the freedom of the Jewish people on their land…He fought with courage against the British mandate in the days of the underground and his incredible contribution to the State of Israel during his time in the Mossad will remain forever enshrined in the tales of bravery of our nation”[44]

Both the New York Times and CNN avoided mentioning Shamir’s terrorist acts, despite the fact that they were well known. Instead, the New York Times declared that Shamir was part of a “Jewish militia”![45] As Julian Ozanne of the Financial Times put it, Shamir’s penchant for terrorist organizations “often appeared to have defined his core character.”[46] But this “core character,” which seems to jive with Netanyahu’s policy with respect to the Palestinians,[47] will not see the light of day in the media any time soon.

Shamir was a flaming Zionist. He had little regard for international law and had “a deep hatred for Arabs.”[48] Israeli writer Uri Avnery called Shamir “the most successful terrorist of the 20th century.”[49] Like Shamir, Avnery joined the underground Irgun organization. Avnery knew Shamir personally, but eventually Avnery became disenchanted with the organization and embraced peaceful solutions. Avnery writes,

“Many years later I asked [Shamir] which historical personality he admired most. He answered without hesitation: Lenin.”[50]

Despite all those  terrorist acts, Israel received very little reprimand from the West. In the summer of 1946, British soldiers arrested 2,700 members of an underground group, which led to its abandonment.[51] Yet one month later:

“On July 26, members of an Etzel cell disguised as Arabs infiltrated the kitchen of the Café La Regence at the lavish King David Hotel in Jerusalem. The hotel had originally opened its doors in 1931 and seven years later was transformed into the nerve center of the British Mandate.

“Members of the cell placed milk containers full of explosives in the southern wing of the hotel and then quickly left the vicinity. Despite the fact that the Etzel gave warning of the explosives, the hotel management was not able to evacuate all its occupants. The ensuing explosion caused the collapse of the southern wing of the hotel; 91 Britons, Arabs, and Jews were buried under the ruins, and 476 more were injured.”[52]

The terrorist pattern continued in 1947, when the United Nations General Assembly Resolution authorized the establishment of two states. The terrorist group the Lehi responded

“with a series of terrorist attacks, which included the bombing of the offices of the British shipping company in Haifa, shooting attacks on police in Jerusalem, and a brazen attack on the Astoria Café in Haifa.

“In the latter incident, which targeted British soldiers and police who frequented the café, three Lehi members equipped with machine guns and grenades stormed into the restaurant, began spraying gunfire in all directions, and then made their getaway in a car waiting outside for them.”[53]

Yet even though the band was dismantled, the spirit never died out. It rose from the ashes, and assassinations of dissenting Jews became ubiquitous—the most notable was the assassination of Israel Kastner in 1957.[54]

Terrorist activities were reincarnated shortly after the establishment of Israel among the terrorist group Brit Haknaim, whose name meant “Covenant of the Zealots.”[55] After Brit Haknaim, we had Gush the Emunim and the Kahanist movements, two religious and terrorist groups.[56]

The terrorist spirit moved into different zones from the late 70s to the 90s. For example, when the book Confidential was released—a book which showed that both Netanyahu and Peres have been using espionage against the U.S. through Hollywood mogul Arnon Milchan—Netanyahu told Milchan to “avoid any public discussion of the book Confidential, asserting that the matter is too sensitive at this time.”[57]

So, these are historical facts. Carson and Fiorina need to think about them and provide a response as to how they are going to deal with Israel. If that is too hard to do, then Carson or Fiorina should not even attempt to become the president of the United States. Carson and Fiorina are already internalizing the commands of their oppressors.

The sad part is that Carson and Fiorina are not alone. Rand Paul, Ted Cruz, Mike Huckabee, Marco Rubio, Scott Walker, among others have already prostrated before the Israeli regime.

If Fiorina or Carson or any members of the Republican and Democratic parties do not have a solid foreign policy, why are they expecting us to get out and vote for them? Why is it so hard for them to get out of the Zionist matrix?
