One of the most important videos you've never seen is this one, in which Benjamin Netanyahu, 9 years ago -- thinking there is no record -- explains his actually strategy to inflict pain on the Palestinians. He also describes how easy it is to manipulate the US, and how he made sure that the Oslo Accords would mean nothing.

First he says that the plan for the Palestinians is to:

hit them hard. Not just one hit... but many painful [hits], so that the price will be unbearable. The price is not unbearable, now. A total assault on the Palestinian Authority. To bring them to a state of panic that everything is collapsing ... fear that everything will collapse... this is what we'll bring them to...

The woman Natanyahu is speaking to wonders if the world won't object to what Israel is doing to the occupied Palestinians (she uses the word occupiers herself. He says the world will say nothing, just that Israel is defending itself. As for the US...

“I know what America is. America is a thing that can be easily moved, moved in the right direction... Let's suppose that they [the Americans] will say something [i.e. to us Israelis] ... so they say it...” [i.e. so what?]

He then moves on to deal with the Oslo Accords. Under Oslo, Israel was to give back land in three phases. However, there was a loophole: if there were settlements or military bases, that land didn't have to be given back. So the question is, who defines what is a settlement or military site?

I received a letter – to me and to Arafat, at the same time ... which said that Israel, and only Israel, would be the one to define what those are, the location of those military sites and their size. Now, they did not want to give me that letter, so I did not give the Hebron agreement. I stopped the government meeting, I said: "I'm not signing." Only when the letter came, in the course of the meeting, to me and to Arafat, only then did I sign the Hebron agreement, or rather, ratify it. It had already been signed. Why does this matter? Because at that moment I actually stopped the Oslo accord.

The woman talking to Netanyahu also states that Oslo meant Israel's suicide—Israel's destruction. And Netanyahu seems to agree.

What is clear from this is that Netanyahu at least, and probably the majority of Israel's leadership (since they followed the strategy he outlines), never sincerely intended to fulfill the Oslo Accords. Their strategy for dealing with the Palestinians was to inflict maximum pain, in an attempt to break the Palestinians so they would accept any possible terms.

And finally, it's remarkable that Netanyahu thinks there is nothing Israel could do which would ever really make America turn on it: nothing which would ever make America not support it. The idea that America would stop Israel from smashing the Palestinians is laughable to him.

The question, nine years later, is whether this is still true. Certainly it is true that when Israel attacked ships in international waters the US protected Israel. And it is also apparently the case that the Israeli military were to overfly Iraq to attack Iran, U.S. air command is not to shoot them down.

I suggest watching the entire video, and drawing your own conclusions. For myself, I suggest that it is in neither Israel's best interests nor America's for America to be so unwilling to stand up to Israel, and for Israel's Prime Minister to have so little respect -- indeed, such open contempt -- for the nation which is Israel's primary ally.

Shame on you for your blatantly anti-Jewish propaganda. After all these people have gone through, aren't they entitled to persecute a few PAlestinians and abuse the friendship of the Americans, and kill and plunder just a little bit? An eye for an eye, and all that other Biblical, Old Testament Bullsh*t.

Israel, America's great parasite. Half of the world hate us for our blind, slavish devotion to them.

And the thug Bibi is correct in his opinion of America.

They can do whatever they please, murder, bomb, wage wars of aggression on civilian populations, publicly and repeatedly shit on the wishes (never demands no matter how much money and diplomatic support we give them)of the U.S. without fear of any consequences beyond timid, pleading, apologetic, toothless reprimands.

And of course the Israeli influence on the U.S. will continue unabated and undiluted.

Also not all Hispanics are of the Mexican persuasion.

Granted, not all Jews are Zionist for the most part. And it has little to do with the Jewish vote, and all to do with the lobbying. Were the Somalis and Mexicans start their own powerful lobby organizations in DC, I am sure both Somalia and Mexico would become indispensable strategic partners for the USA overnight.

this subject has been analyzed to death, the british mandate, the roman commander titus, the right of return, the nazis, and on, and on.

i guess it depends on what you read, and your point of view, there is for example this,

http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/m...

and this

http://www.israelforum.com/board/showthread.p...

there is real hatred between these two religious sects, that is for sure, odd for two such "peaceful" religions. the fact is israel is a country, my solution is let the israelis have it all, all the way to the jordan, set the borders and let israel run their country the way they want; that is what we are doing for the new islamic republic of iraq, and afghanistan.

of course we have seen what happens to leaders who attempt peace with israel, such as anwar sadat. "Following Sadat's assassination, the killers were identified as Muslim radicals, members of the Egyptian Islamic Jihad. They opposed Sadat's landmark peace treaty with Israel and hoped to impose Islamic rule in Egypt."

the fact is that Israel is a country, no matter how it got that way, and some people are going to be unhappy about it.

Your "solution", the eradication of the Palestinians... ooops, I mean "letting the Israelis have it all" continues unabated.

like i have said before, the UN and the Brits never had the right to give this land away in the first place. both sides will have arguments about everything, and everything else, until the sun goes red giant. i got hammered before for calling israel an "illegitimate state". fact is there was no "state" of palestine, there was the "british protectorate" which was an arbitrary border set up by europeans; see, my point exactly, so many complexities, set a final definite border that completely satisfies somebody, anybody, and be done with it.

real-world solutions seldom satisfy everybody anyway, there won't be any middle way with either of these parties, don't kid yourself.

Hasa Diga Eebowai

more false equivalences and red herrings.
it's what I expect from you.

the lame argument you were making originally, before you reverted to your time tested, overly trite sarcasm and condescension, was this:

but hey, my ancestors have done bad stuff too, so I should just be quiet.
an incredibly simplistic understanding of current events.
using your logic, if Canada started to actively blockade the reservations, prohibit anyone who is NA from leaving those areas, and actively encroach even more into those reservations, further stealing land you would be forced to say:
Oh well, it's happened before, who am I to say anything about this? I can't be against these things because my ancestors were for them. Oh well.

It also falsely equates the NA populations in both countries to that of Palestinians in other ways, such as the fact that NA's can and do participate in both of our governments, many do not live on those reservations - Hawaii is a great example of this - but rather are fully integrated and consider themselves Americans.

This is not true for Palestinians.

Once again, your red herring remains a red herring.

ixnay's picture

... there are plenty of Hawaiians who have a lot of bones to pick with the USA. There are in fact plenty of Hawaiians who subscribe to pro-independence views.

Same goes for many native independence movements in the USA (and Canada) many of which have been squashed by force. There are actually plenty of native leaders in prison in the US, for what other nations consider to be political reasons.

The irony is that even Israel may have a stronger case based on historical precedence. Than us white folk do in regards to our ownership of this land, since there is no historical precedent of white people roaming these lands previous to the XV/XVI century conquest.

which is that Israel became a de facto state the minute enough of them decided to stay.

CTHULHU 2012 "Why vote for a lesser evil?"

Peter G's picture

Iceberg? What's the difference? ( The Titanic comment was sarcasm). The civilian Iranian flight 655 was shot down towards the end of the Iran-Iraq war. The US does have to be a player to make it a war zone. It was shot down by one of the most sophisticated US warships then in existence. A ship with the most advanced and sophisticated tracking and targeting radars in existence. A ship that apparently mistook a wide bodied A-300 for a jet fighter and killed everyone on board. I believe the technical term for that sort of thing is " giant clusterfuck". Much like what happened to the USS Liberty.


Hasa Diga Eebowai

You know nothing if you think that the USS Liberty was simply one rogue missile.

It was a protracted battle one where the president was on the phone with the admirals in the area.

We refer to it as a "False Flag operation".

Look it up.


'The devil crept into Heaven, God overslept on the 7th, the New World Order was born on Sept 11th.' - Immortal Technique

Andy K's picture

The point was that they were both giant clusterfucks.

The USS Liberty was sent to the area alone before the US Amassador to the UN stated publicly that there were no US Navy ships in the area. The Department of the Navy sent orders to the fleet to pull the Liberty back, but the fleet command never forwarded the message to the Liberty.

And "false flag" is just what the Israelis were thinking: The USS Liberty was a refitted WWII era Victory ship (the follow-up to, ironically, the Liberty ships), many of which had been old off to private interests after WWII, many of which were sailing around the globe in 1967. The Israelis didn't know whether that was an official US flag, or whether it was an Egyptian or Soviet ship flying a false flag.

Something else that's well worth remembering is that Israel wasn't a client state of the US at the time of the Six Days War. Most of it's planes were French, most of it's armor British. There wasn't the direct line between the POTUS and Israel's PM until a year or two after the warb.

There really are no walls anymore. Bush could come out with a Bush saying "This is how I lied people into war, and you suckers sopped it up with a spoon." And nothing would happen.

Because some people have already made their stand on things, and they've pre-decided that moving one inch from that position is weakness. So we stay the course.

I used to be happy there was starting to be some transparency with their rhetoric, that Limbaugh would come out and say "fuck the poor" and everyone knows what he is. But now I'm a little worried that in a world with open, transparent rhetoric, hatred will still win.

Good point. That is their thinking - "fuck the poor, they don't vote."

That would be soooooo cool!!!!

Peter G would LOVE it!

what does Hezbollah have to do with this? They are not synonymous.

Some fighting for freedom, some oppressing it.

It's called politics eh?

Which side you on? ;P

If we could go back in a time machine and see the Arabs accept the original partition, with a Palestinian state that wasn't swallowed up by Jordan and Egyptb.

That probably would have prevented much future bloodshed though I seem to recall the partition greatly favoring the new Jewish state with regards to the best lands and the Arab state would not be contiguous.

by the knowledge that the current leadership of the Palestinians don't have much use for the Oslo accords either. See where extremism gets you? Nowhere. Slowly and excruciatingly nowhere.

It is two words, and it starts with an R not an E. The more you know...

But you are correct, red herrings usually get you nowhere... other than to a very fishy and stinky place once they start rotting, plus they taste horrible. Although the Dutch love them. I have seen them gulp them like hotdogs, really gross.

what a revelation -really???----to get a forbidden glimpse of this
sociopath's true colors. How this villain was able to get another
foothold into the Israel government as a top leader is unfathomable.
It doesn't say much about the population's mind set ---oh.how could
I forget the helplessness of tiny Israel,a country in possession of
nuclear weapons and willing to actually USE them!!!!
We all should enjoy our,maybe,last days on this earth -compliments

"The Israeli newspaper Ma'ariv on Wednesday reported that Likud leader Benjamin Netanyahu told an audience at Bar Ilan university that the September 11, 2001 terror attacks had been beneficial for Israel.

"We are benefiting from one thing, and that is the attack on the Twin Towers and Pentagon, and the American struggle in Iraq," Ma'ariv quoted the former prime minister as saying. He reportedly added that these events "swung American public opinion in our favor."

Isn't it great being a fly on the wall. In a similar vein an interview with former Sharon advisor Gideon Levy on Israel's addiction

Study the symptoms not the virus...

What needs to be done is US should stop military aid to every country out there. Most Americans would not have too much against that idea (espeically in a recession). Since pretty much all of it goes to Israel, it'd be an easy way to cut aid to our manipulators. That way there's no anti-semitic comments needed.

We knew this to be the case. Even without the words, all the actions point to this attitude.

All this does is makes it just that little harder for America to deceive itself about the noble and existential defense Israel is putting up against it's evil neighbours.

The tail has been wagging the dog for many, many years.

Thanks for posting the truth. The dialogue is opening on the discussion of too many people in the U.S. govt with dual Israeli citizenship (THAT is a security issue!) and in the media, particularly at the ownership, CEO, and president levels. This is FACT, do your research. But don't do your research in the mainstream media! And we are SUCKERS, that's what Netanyahu is correct about.
