"...now Kerry says we must not have another Munich...meaning let's go to war NOW!" -- I wonder if his friends in AIPAC (American Israel Political Action Committee) have something to do with the propaganda of calling Assad Hitler, and bringing up Hitler once again by using Munich to remind us all that if we say no to war, we are saying yes to the destruction of Israel. http://mondoweiss.net/2013/09/aipac-on-an-island-politico-report-says-israel-lobby-alone-in-pushing-for-war-in-syria.html AIPAC on an island: ‘Politico’ report says Israel lobby alone in pushing for war in Syria Adam Horowitz on September 6, 2013 AIPAC is planning to go “all out” to push for a U.S. attack on Syria, but according to reports in Politico it appears they will be doing it alone. Rep. Alan Grayson, who has been leading the charge against authorizing an attack, estimates that constituents calls are “100-to-1” against the resolution, but the Israel lobby group plans on sending 250 lobbyists to the hill next week to push for military intervention (with their eye on Iran): The powerful pro-Israel lobby AIPAC is planning to launch a major lobbying campaign to push wayward lawmakers to back the resolution authorizing U.S. strikes against Syria, sources said Thursday. Officials say that some 250 Jewish leaders and AIPAC activists will storm the halls on Capitol Hill beginning next week to persuade lawmakers that Congress must adopt the resolution or risk emboldening Iran’s efforts to build a nuclear weapon. They are expected to lobby virtually every member of Congress, arguing that “barbarism” by the Assad regime cannot be tolerated, and that failing to act would “send a message” to Tehran that the U.S. won’t stand up to hostile countries’ efforts to develop weapons of mass destruction, according to a source with the group. “History tells us that ambiguity [in U.S. actions] invites aggression,” said the AIPAC source who asked not to be named. The source added the group will now be engaged in a “major mobilization” over the issue. But who else will be joining them? A separate report from Politico says that most of the groups that were set up in the wake of 9/11 to promote the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan are sitting this one out, or have disappeared all together. The only groups actively mobilizing to pressure Congress in support of an attack seem to be the lobby: It remains to be seen if any other center-left groups will come out in support of Obama’s request for action in Syria. The liberal groups organized around the Iraq and Afghanistan wars would be unlikely to abandon their anti-war politics at Obama’s demand. Several of those outfits, such as the veteran-led VoteVets.org and the grassroots group MoveOn, announced their opposition to striking Syria on Wednesday. The hawkish groups that existed back in 2008 were overwhelmingly on the right. As much as an attack on Assad’s Syria might be in line with the larger goals of foreign policy hawks, it’s not as if Obama has even partially embraced the broader agenda of 2008-vintage groups such as Freedom’s Watch . . . As of mid-week, that left several major Jewish political organizations – including the Republican Jewish Coalition, the National Jewish Democratic Council and AIPAC – in what several strategists described as a lonely and uncomfortable position of endorsing military action against Syrian dictator Bashar Assad without much help from other advocacy-group allies.

Those warmongering douchebags don’t speak for me or hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of other Jews. Why appointed those bastards? I didn’t see an election coming. They just had a massive power grab and fooled the entire world, including many Jews, that they speak for them. They don’t. What they should’ve done is do a democratic poll among their actual paying members, do you support a Syrian strike? We know the Israel Firsters at AIPAC would have cleared the vote, since their members are nimwits and 5th columnists. But the Democratic Jewish Council could easily have lost a serious poll/vote if they had made it large enough and allowed equal time to both sides. Btw, notice the absence of J Street in his report. They are still sitting on the fence. They actually seem to have a brain and realize there’s no clear-cut to end this and a military attack will not bring a serious solution to the conflict, which even Dempsey and the generals concede.

When I saw this I had one of those…’did I dream this?..moments cause I know I said long ago that the worse thing for US Jews would be for them to go to war with majority Americans opinion if Americans ever reared their head on something critical to them like this Syria deal. “We believe it is important for American Jews to state out loud what Israelis are understandably constrained from saying: Congress should work with President Obama to craft a measured but powerful military response to the Assad government’s use of chemical weapons against its own people, and to ensure as best as it can that even the worst consequences of such an attack are anticipated and, if possible, ameliorated,” Jane Eisner, the editor-in-chief of the Forward, wrote Wednesday in a strongly worded editorial calling for U.S. intervention.” link to forward.com Log in to Reply irmep says: September 6, 2013 at 11:04 am The last time AIPAC faced odds this bad was 1984. The Israeli government wanted tariff-free access to the American market, in exchange for basically nothing. 74 US industry groups were lobbying hard against trade concessions. 22 relatively small groups and AIPAC were lobbying for it. AIPAC obtained the classified compendium of US industry negotiating points from the ITC, via Israeli Minister of Economics Dan Halpern, and used their data against them in a lobbying and PR campaign. The FBI investigation (espionage/theft of government property) went nowhere. AIPAC lobbyists swarmed Capitol Hill. Some, like Ester Kurz, who handled the classified info in 1984, will be lobbying for war on Syria. It is reasonable to expect any and all AIPAC dirty tricks will be unleashed to make sure Congress defies American public opinion on the war resolution. Log in to Reply Citizen says: September 6, 2013 at 12:32 pm @ irmep Yes, that’s how the US entered its very first FTA in 1985. FTA’s sent how many US jobs abroad forever? The US-Israel FTA, like the current bill wending its way swiftly through Congress that will VISA waiver Israelis coming here, and discriminate against US (mostly Muslim American & those critical of Israel) visitors going to Israel, remains totally non-reciprocal–Israeli exports to here come in customs free, while Israel gets to select which US industry products it wants to subject to Israeli customs fees or taxes. Congress knows how the US got bamboozled thanks to Jewish spies here who gave US negotiation data to Israel, but Congress has never fixed the one-way street every time its up to be fixed.

It is far more effective to participate in the political process than march in the streets. It is also my view that a large public protest is perhaps not a wise idea given the tensions. To make its voice heard (and adhered to) the US Public needs to work the political process in a meaningful and sustained way via channels that provide impact on Congress. Log in to Reply Walid says: September 6, 2013 at 11:29 am I was under the impression that AIPAC is there to obey and serve Israel’s interests, so if AIPAC is pushing for an all out attack on Syria, Israel’s hand has to be in it somehow and AIPAC isn’t really alone on this. Log in to Reply ToivoS says: September 7, 2013 at 6:09 am Good question. One thing that might be going on here is that Obama is asking AIPAC to lobby Congress on his war with Syria. If the Whitehouse is pressuring them then they might be doing this against their own better instincts. Of course, they wouldn’t go against Israel’s wishes so it is safe to assume that war is what Israel also wants. Log in to Reply dbroncos says: September 6, 2013 at 11:40 am Dozens of lawmakers are “undecided” as to how to vote.

Log in to Reply American says: September 6, 2013 at 11:50 am link to dailycaller.com ”The woman whose opinion lawmakers are relying on to go to war in Syria is also a paid advocate for the war-torn country’s rebels. On Wednesday, Secretary of State John Kerry encouraged members of the House of Representatives to read a Wall Street Journal op-ed by 26-year-old Elizabeth O’Bagy — an analyst with the Institute for the Study of War — who asserted that concerns about extremists dominating among the Syrian rebels are unfounded. “Contrary to many media accounts, the war in Syria is not being waged entirely, or even predominantly, by dangerous Islamists and al-Qaida die-hards,” O’Bagy wrote for the Journal on Aug. 30. “Moderate opposition groups make up the majority of actual fighting forces,” she wrote. But in addition to her work for the Institute for the Study of War, O’Bagy is also the political director for the Syrian Emergency Task Force (SETF), a group that advocates within the United States for Syria’s rebels — a fact that the Journal did not disclose in O’Bagy’s piece. In an interview with The Daily Caller, O’Bagy said that despite her title as the group’s political director, she is paid as a contractor. She insisted that she is not involved in the political lobbying that SETF does. “They kind of have two departments within the Task Force — one focused on working with the government on the Hill on advocacy and then the other working inside Syria and directly implementing government contracts,” she said. O’Bagy’s relationship with SETF is a serious conflict of interest, according to David Reaboi, vice president for strategic communications at the Center for Security Policy. “While there’s been a lot of worthwhile effort to expose activists considered pro-Assad or pro-Hezbollah — or, at least, to consider their analysis as coming from an interested party — O’Bagy seems to pass herself off as an impartial observer of the situation. Her access to Congress, intelligence services and to think tanks should be regarded as what it really is, which is a reflection of the Syrian rebels’ cause and aspirations,” Reaboi said.”>>>>> Take out AIPAC, take out all the foreign interest lobbist, paid and otherwise–and let God sort them out.

She argued at the conclusion of the interview that strikes are imperative at the very least because of the negative potential ‘psychological impact’ that ‘no reaction’ would have on both ‘regime supporters and opposition supporters.’ in other words, the Syrians need to be bombed for their own good, violence being the only language arabs understand. this is the language of masochism, not international relations, Syrians masochists setting the stage for their own beating.

Log in to Reply anthonybellchambers says: September 6, 2013 at 11:53 am Listening to the impassioned pleas at the G20 conference today of both President Obama and Prime Minister Cameron against the use of chemical weapons, it is inexplicable why they were both so silent when the Israeli army used white phosphorus AS A CHEMICAL WEAPON in Gaza, in 2008/9, when according to the UNHRC over 300 children under the age of 16 were killed by the IDF. No legal or other action has been taken to date against Israel for what was clearly a war crime that violated the Geneva Conventions. Yet, it is now that very state, and its American lobby, AIPAC, that is driving the clamour for a cruise missile strike against Syria. Let the world see both Syria and Israel brought before the International Criminal Court for war crimes against civilian populations.

US President Barack Obama does not intend to authorize US military force in Syria if lawmakers vote against his proposal seeking action amid allegations of chemical weapons use by Syrian President Bashar Assad, a top aide said on Friday. “The president of course has the authority to act, but it’s neither his desire nor his intention to use that authority absent Congress backing him,” deputy national security adviser Tony Blinken told National Public Radio.

But Antony Blinken, his principal deputy national security adviser, told NPR that while the president maintains he has the authority to act regardless of Congress, “it’s neither his desire nor his intention to use that authority absent Congress backing him.” ‘not his desire or intent’ isn’t quite the same as saying he won’t do it without congressional approval. plus i read somewhere this morning obama might do it with only senate approval, and not wait for the house vote after the 16th. i will go look for that link.

In a question of war, that US voters overwhelmingly oppose, as seemingly does the Congress, the President is willing/going to do it anyway. The President is unequivocally telling Congress its role in these decisions does not matter. Strictly unconstitutional at THE most fundamental level. It may have been OK/overlookable with Libya where there was a lot of ambivalence. But not this go. Someone here said that it’s not over yet. That Congress may swing back to approve a war with Syria and avoid this constitutional crisis, but as of now Obama is playing a dangerous and potentially unforgivable/impeachable game.

Alan Grayson: Syria Intelligence Manipulated”, By Steven Nelson, usnews.com, 9/05/13 Rep. Alan Grayson, D-Fla., who is aggressively lobbying against a military strike on Syria, says the Obama administration has manipulated intelligence to push its case for U.S. involvement in the country’s two-year civil war. Grayson made the accusation in an interview published Wednesday by The Atlantic and offered more detail in a Thursday discussion with U.S. News. He says members of Congress are being given intelligence briefings without any evidence to support administration claims that Syrian leader Bashar Assad ordered the use of chemical weapons. Grayson said he cannot discuss the classified briefings, but noted details in the administration’s public, non-classified report are being contested. The White House released its four-page public report Aug. 30, arguing that Assad’s government killed 1,429 people on Aug. 21 with a planned chemical weapon attack. Evidence cited in that report included “intercepted communications involving a senior official intimately familiar with the offensive who confirmed that chemical weapons were used.” Grayson, however, says “the claim has been made that that information was completely mischaracterized.” He points to an article published by The Daily Caller that alleges the communications actually showed Syrian officers were surprised by the alleged chemical weapon attack. The communications, according to unnamed sources paraphrased in article, were intercepted by Israeli intelligence and “doctored so that it leads a reader to just the opposite conclusion.” . . .

I hope that I am wrong, but many could be merely opposing Mr. Obama in this, just as they do in anything he does- (right or wrong)- because of the predominant color of his skin, and their dislike for him as a person.
