John Mearsheimer: Israel's Real Purpose In Its Atrocities in Gaza
19-01-2009 10:31
John Mearsheimer of the University of Chicago, co-author of the paper (available online) and subsequent book (with Stephen Walt) _The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy_, presents a concise timeline description and absolutely the clearest account of the true reason behind Israel's wanton atrocities in Gaza.Mearsheimer argues that diminishing Hamas or stopping their rockets are subsidiary goals for Israel, to Israel's more central goal of controlling all of historical Palestine via an "Iron Wall" policy that would permanently subjugate the Palestinian people and ensure Israeli control of all Palestinian land, air, water, borders/sea, and economy.
Mearsheimer points out that this goal cannot be achieved, and certainly not by the brutal method of a total war on the Palestinian people. The likely outcome even in the case of relative Israeli success is a permanent Apartheid, which itself will [thankfully] doom Israel as a chauvinistically and exclusionary "Jewish State"[and its racist state ideology of Zionism].

19-01-2009 00:29
A few days ago a site called
http://www.stoptheism.com/ hosted in Canada and run by a Lee Kaplan of San Francisco was downed. The site contained an offer of a bounty for precise locations of named ISMers in Gaza with the explicit intention to pass their details on to the IDF and have them killed.
Does Lee know it is a felony to solicit murder in the USA?
I know some people who do about that kind of thing:
