President Obama has apparently taken President Carter’s advice. It was that any American President has only two windows of opportunity to break the iron grip the Zionist lobby in all of its manifestations has on the Congress of the United States of America on matters to do with the conflict in and over Palestine that became Israel. The two windows are the first nine months of a president’s first term and the second half of his second term if he has one. This is so because fund-raising for the mid-term elections, which enables Zionism to buy law makers or take out those who won’t toe Zionism’s line (e.g. Congressman Paul Findley), begins in about month ten.

The Biggest “If” of History
Israel’s Iranian Mythology
Unless they are the victims of their own propaganda and deluded close to the point of clinical madness, which is possible, Israel’s leaders must know that even a nuclear-armed Iran could not and would not pose an existential threat to the Jews now living in Israel/Palestine. So why, really, are they, Prime Minister Netanyahu especially, trying so hard to make the world believe otherwise?
Susan Boyle – Ambassador for our Common Humanity
This post is not about conflict in the Middle East and the politics of stopping or not the countdown to catastrophe for all. It’s about a lady who has won my heart and my mind.
It’s long been my view that modern life is a de-humanizing process, that our leaders are taking us back to the jungle, and that if our children are to have even the prospect of a future worth having, we citizens of nations have got to claim back our humanity. In that light I see and hear Scottish singer Susan Boyle as a great inspiration.
The Rape of the “Mother of Parliaments”
If the scandal submerging the British parliament at Westminster was only about the abuse of expenses by MPs of all parties, the crisis would be manageable by punishment of the offenders and new rules; but the sickness at the heart of what passes for democracy in once but no longer Great Britain needs a much more profound cure.
Hart of the Matter
Between October 2008 and January 2009, Press.TV aired a 13 part series called “Hart of the Matter” – a programme committed to telling viewers the truth – the truth about who must do what and why if the Palestine problem, the cancer at the heart of international affairs, is to be cured before it consumes us all.
Now that my new blog has gone live, each episode has been published and back-dated to the date at which it went on-air. However, as the series is very important for people to see, this post and a dedicated sidebar widget have been created to ensure the videos don’t disappear into the history of the blog’s archives.
Be sure to watch these videos, but if you’re too stretched for time (approx 20 minutes for each video), then at least download the conversations in MP3 format and listen to them on your way to work etc. Each video has an audio link below it or you can download them all zipped up: 1-3, 4-6, 7-9 & 10-13
