Will America Forsake Israel?
Source: http://frontpagemag.com
The Israel-Iran countdown has begun and with respect to Tehran’s nuclear race we are witnessing the greatest crisis in the US-Israel relations. Will America help the tiny Jewish State? Can Israel trust the word of a US administration that has treated Jerusalem like a banana republic?
A few days ago, Israeli officials told the Yedioth Ahronoth newspaper that “the US’ stance is pushing the Iranians to become a country at the brink of nuclear capability.”
Very few people in Israel believe that the US will ever launch another preemptive war against the ayatollahs. The US, especially if Barack Obama gets the re-election, will be tempted to reach a compromise with the Iranians.
Israel is dependent on the US for economic, military and diplomatic support. American taxpayers fund 20-25% of Israel’s defense budget, with the Jewish State being the largest recipient by far of American aid since World War II.
Israel is required to use a portion of US aid to buy from the US defense establishment, but no other country — certainly not any European one — provides the weapons needed to protect Israeli lives. Moreover, the United States has cast 40 vetoes to protect Israel in the UN Security Council.
There is a quid pro quo for such support, but also a limit to what even that degree of dependence can buy. The current Iranian nuclear race made it very clear. And it made clear that the US can forsake, again, the Israelis.
Washington doesn’t support Israel because of the Jewish State’s democracy, the Holocaust or its respect for human rights. Israel’s strategic value has always been the primary motivation for US support.
But it can change tomorrow, especially if Israel’s survival becomes a burden for Washington (France has been Israel’s most important ally after the war, but Paris suddenly abandoned the Jews for the Arab world). Israel must remember that she is America’s ally and client, not “friend.”
The first US presidents after Israel was established — Truman, Eisenhower, Kennedy and Johnson — gave nothing to the Jewish State. And we were in a time when the ashes of Auschwitz were still warm, while today the memory of the Holocaust is fading.
Truman maintained a US embargo against arms sales to the Israeli and Arabs, which was effective only against Israel. In 1948, it was US pressure which forced Israel to withdraw from the Sinai where Israeli forces were pursuing the defeated Egyptians.
In 1960 the Nazi officer Adolf Eichmann was apprehended by Israeli agents in Argentina and flown to Jerusalem for trial. Argentina turned to the UN Security Council, asking it to condemn Israel and order Eichmann’s return. Washington intended to support the Argentinean complaint and only the furious reaction of Israel’s foreign minister, Golda Meir, dissuaded Washington to do that.
Prior to the Six Day War, Abba Eban approached Lyndon Johnson and all he got was an arms embargo on the Middle East. In 1970, at the height of the “War of Attrition,” the US turned down an urgent Israeli request for security assistance.
In 1992 the Bush-Baker Administration humiliated the Israelis by an ultimatum: “Settlements or loan guarantees” (the latter Israeli general and minister Rehavam Ze’evi dismissed Bush senior as being “anti-Semitic”). The US post-Gulf War’s settlement included American efforts to dislodge Israel from the territories by endangering Israel’s security and claim to the land. The former editor of The New York Times, A.M. Rosenthal, wrote that “the Bush administration has a spiritual affinity for Arab rulers and oilmen, but bares its teeth when Jerusalem shows independence.”
Bill Clinton’s appeasement has been a tragedy for the Jewish people, since he pushed the Oslo process along and encouraged its implementation, bearing a historic responsibility for the Intifada’s bloodshed, in which 2000 Israelis paid with their lives.
In 1981 the Jewish State bombed the Iraqi reactor of Osirak. Recent files released by the UK National Archives show that Britain’s ambassador to Washington, Sir Nicholas Henderson, was with US Defence Secretary Caspar Weinberger as the news came in. “Weinberger says that he thinks Begin must have taken leave of his senses.
He is much disturbed by the Israeli reaction and possible consequences,” Nicholas cabled London. Alexander Haig was secretary of state then. “I argued,” he recalled, “that while some action must be taken to show American disapproval, our strategic interests would not be served by policies that humiliated and weakened Israel.”
Those who remember Ronald Reagan as friendly to Israel may be startled to recall the vehemence of his reaction against Israel. The Reagan administration’s immediate response was to impose sanctions on the Jewish State and Reagan suspended the delivery of F-16 fighters doing something even Jimmy Carter refused to do: use arms supplies as leverage against Israel. Washington has also armed Israel’s western neighbor to the teeth. The Egyptian army is now infinitely more modern then when the Egyptians carried out their successful initial attack against Israel in the 1973 Yom Kippur War.
Can we forget the US treatment of Jonathan Pollard, the only American to receive a life sentence for spying for an ally? Despite the fact that nobody has given one specific example of how Pollard hurt the US, the Israeli is still being held in solitary confinement in an underground cell.
Pollard has been in prison longer than anyone ever sentenced in the US for passing classified materials to a friendly foreign power (the median sentence for someone spying for a non-Soviet power has been less than three years). For his contribution to Israel’s security and for his long suffering in prison, Pollard is an Israeli hero.
He is the source of the Israeli preparedness for the Iraqi missile attacks during the Gulf War, when Saddam’s rockets began to rain down on Tel Aviv, and Israelis wore gas masks. Pollard warned Israel of Iraq’s bellicose intentions, and that Syria’s Assad was amassing quantities of chemical weapons. By its own agreement with Israel, the US should have given this information to Jerusalem. But it was deliberately blocked by Weinberger.
Today Israel can stand tall in the face of its important ally because it never asked American soldiers to spill their blood for its defense. It’s Washington that must beg for Israel’s alliance and protect the Jews, as it cannot afford disengagement from the only democracy in a region dominated by Islam.
Will the US eventually be compelled to sacrifice Israel on the altar of “realism” and oil price, when Iran’s knife will descend on the Jews? And will the Jewish State’s leadership dutifully bind Israel on the altar?
As Charles Krauthammer spelled it out, “for Israel the stakes are somewhat higher: the very existence of a vibrant nation and its 6 million Jews.” If Israel won’t be able to change the US’s red line on Iran and Jerusalem capitulates to Washington’s appeasement, the Iranians’ ghoulish utopia will be soon armed with atomic bombs.
And the Jews? They will be psychologically weaker and totally dependant on others’ help. Like it was before and during the Holocaust.

“Today Israel can stand tall in the face of its important ally because it never asked American soldiers to spill their blood for its defense.”
The people that died on the US-Liberty might not agree with this
“It’s Washington that must beg for Israel’s alliance and protect the Jews, as it cannot afford disengagement from the only democracy in a region dominated by Islam.”
in plane english the USA must beg Israel so that its zionist bankers keep flipping the digits on a computer so that the USA can create more money out of nothing.
The USA is ran by criminals finance by Israel and if you follow the money from 9/11 then it all leads back to Israel and it’s banksters who care nothing about anyones blood.
Iran hasn’t done anything to any country they just mind their business unlike some other nations I could name, and since Israel has nuclear weapons why do they think they can tell another country it can’t?
Its all about power. If Iran achieve in their nuclear weapons, Israel wont be only major player in region, and they are death scared of that.they are afraid, that non jewish/arabic countries will once again band together and strike them down once again(or die trying
).
The long, infamous “track record” of the u.s. of TERROR! indicates the answer to the question is YES, isra-HELL WILL BE “left at the alter”!
Here, let me refresh your memories!
1.) Vietnam – we all know what happened there – “turned and ran”! Left “allies” there to die!
2.) Panama – friend today – in a federal prison basement in FL tomorrow!
3.) Iraq – your Old buddy, Saddam, was armed by the us war mongers and their “NATO allies” for 10 years – to conduct a war on Iran that killed 1 million on both sides. Then, you hunted him down and killed him.
4.) Afghanistan – us warmongers armed “Al Qaeda” hand-held stinger rockets – and now – well, u.s. of TERROR war-mongers still “use”"Al Qaeda” as paid “mercenaries” – on your u.s. of TERROR Zionist TV networks, they are known as “Freedom Fighters”!(HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!)
And, there are plenty more examples!!
NO, IT DOES NOT LOOK GOOD FOR isra-HELL AT ALL!
BUT, RUN BY ZIONISTS, THEY “LIE FOR A LIVING” AND DESERVE WHAT THEY WILL RECEIVE!!!!!
HERE, READ A LITTLE OF THEIR “holy book”, the talmud!
“All gentile children are animals”
(Yebamoth 98a).
“Jews may use lies (‘subterfuges’) to circumvent a Gentile”
(Baba Kamma 113a).
“When a Jew murders a gentile (‘Cuthean’), there will be no death penalty. What a Jew steals from a gentile he may keep” (Sanhedrin 57a).
AND YOU STUPID, IGNORANT, NAIVE, SUPERSTITIOUS-RIDDLED PEOPLE HAVE “ALLIED” WITH THESE “DEMONIC MONSTERS”???
YOU MORONS THINK “ZIONIST” AND jew are the SAME????? NOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
A zionist and a jew are not the same thing.
THERE ARE A LOT OF JEWS THAT HATE ZIONISM AND THE CURRENT POLITICAL SITUATION IN isra-HELL!
HERE, IGNORANT FOOLS, GO LOOK AND LISTEN!!!!!
ALL IN NYC, here in the good ole u.s. of TERROR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LET’S SEE, WHO OWNS THEM (ABCCBSNBCFOX), WHY, 3 ZIONIST jews AND A “u.s of TERROR DEFENSE CONTRACTOR”!!!!!!!!
YOU WAR-MONGERING “believing” DOGS WILL BE AT WAR FOREVER!
I’m confused. Are you saying just Zionists are evil or jews? or both? It seems like your contradicting yourself when you quote the Talmud, which is a jewish book is it not?
Time to let Israel stand on its own 2 feet. We’ve been babysitting them for far too long and all they do is stab us in the back.
Pollard gave info to Isra-hell who then promptly passed to Soviet Union. Info included secret nuclear codes & CIA agents in USSR.
USSR then allowed 100,000 Jews to leave for Isra-hell.
With friend like this who needs enemy.
Barak Obama will forsake Israel.
If Israel decides to fall on the sword by starting a war with Iran, let them. Might want to ask Netyen-yahoo if he has ever heard of Gen.Custer? If not, he might want to be reminded that the general didn’t fare to well being surrounded by them Indians, did he? Just sayin’!
Please go to this Facebook page that is an anti-Zionist online museum called “Jews Against Zionism and War With Iran”
Al Qaeda’s Next Target is Bahrain – Then Saudi Arabia
When Bush went to Saudi Arabia and promised protection from Saddam’s forces prior to Operation Desert Storm, the House of Saud accepted.
Osama bin Laden told the king not to accept the US offer and warned the US was merely using an invasion by Iraq as a pretext for occupation of Saudi Arabia.
The Saudi king, seeing all the US weapons and machines knew he could count on the US to help him maintain his throne against all opposition, of which Osama bin Laden and his al Qaeda forces surely qualified.
After the US waged war during Operation Desert Storm while still leaving Saddam in power, and then using Desert Storm as a ruse to occupy Saudi Arabia and Iraq, bin Laden became enraged, especially after his offer to secure Saudi Arabia was rebuffed and he was laughed at by the Saudi king. Bin Laden assured the Saudi Royal Family that he and his forces could defeat any threat by Saddam and pointed to their success against the Soviet invaders in Afghanistan. King Fahd laughed at this proposal and told him to take a hike, whereby he took Saudi jihadists with him who had already fought the Russians in Afghanistan and began building his organization. At that point bin Laden decided to attack the US and the seeds for 9/11 were sown.
The US government’s occupation of the Middle East and US’s desire to engage in acts of war against Iraq by carrying out a decade long embargo that killed 500,000 Iraqi children due to their inability to get basic medicines like antibiotics led to jihadi training camps in the Kurdish north of Iraq where ironically these militants were protected from Saddam by a US no-fly zone. Then camps opened in Afghanistan and in tribal regions of Pakistan.
During this time Saddam, even being a Sunni himself, accurately recognized the al Qaeda threat to his dictatorship and promised to kill every al Qaeda operative he could get his hands on. He was viewed as a great enemy of Osama bin Laden and his Baathist party was viewed as an apostate government worthy of mass execution.
The genius in Osama bin Laden’s attack on the US is getting the US to believe that an attack by an enemy of Saddam’s would get the US to use it as a pretext to invading not only an enemy of bin Laden’s, but also a country that actually had nothing to do with 9/11. The US was excited about the pretext bin Laden had given them and felt that it was a gift and a tactical blunder by bin Laden.
The US reasoned that with bin Laden being a Sunni, he would never have given the US the pretext to overthrow Saddam and allow the US to hand over Iraq to Shiites if he had understood the ability of the US to establish a Shiite government. The US was also supremely confident it could buy off enough Iraqi politicians and ensure enough instability to maintain a permanent presence in Iraq. Instead, Iran gained immeasurably in influence as most of the Shiite government for Iraq had been sheltered in Iran during Saddam’s rule. These Shiites were closely connected to Iran, had received money from Iran both for themselves and for the Iraqi government and the nation as a whole. Iran used money to buy the implementation of Iranian foreign policy. Their foreign policy objectives were to get the US out of Iraq and ensure a government in Iraq that would not allow the US to use Iraq as a base of operations against Iran. In this the Iranians were successful.
Not only did Iran get the Iraqis to throw the US out of Iraq, but it then persuaded the Iraqis to keep in place all oil contracts that had been negotiated with the EU under Saddam to remain in effect thereby effectively barring the US oil companies from gaining any Iraqi oil deals after the US spent a trillion dollars attacking, invading and occupying Iraq.
The Saudis now had a problem of what to do to with all the al Qaeda fighters Iraq had expelled. They fought in Libya and demonstrated they could engage in sustained low-intensity warfare until Gadaffi ran out of money and his forces suffered sufficient attrition by NATO air strikes, but the House of Saud is under constant pressure to try to play off these militants that clearly present a danger to the corrupt Saudi monarchy and its expanding list of relatives who all live off of oil revenue to the exclusion of the great majority of Saudi subject.
What Americans don’t know is that the House of Saud has two forces, one is under-equipped and manned by the general Saudi population and lead by the Saudi Royal Family, the other is one made up of direct descendants to the House of Saud, is well-armed and trained, and is led by American retired generals who serve as military advisors and the command and control element for the Saudi army.
So, now we have the House of Saud setting in a sea of oil while it has given matches to its al Qaeda militants hoping it can pacify forces that are growing more and more powerful, demanding and independent. These forces will eventually assert their will and have already questioned the Saudi monarchy’s legitimacy and adherence to radical Islam. The Saud’s have been able to keep these forces at bay by running a welfare state that distributes oil wealth and is brutally authoritarian and oppressive while ensuring its militants are being used as an expeditionary force that receives ample sustainment from petroldollar Saudis hold as US debt. While the US may have killed bin Laden, it is assured the US has not heard the last of this al Qaeda organization the US claims to have crushed and its strength can be seen in Syria.
During the US’s Global War on Terror its government had told its citizens that the main objective was to prevent a Middle East caliphate from being established, but now the US has handed Libya and now Syria to al Qaeda. This is the base of operations from which al Qaeda can be sustained. It would now be impossible for the US to oppose the jihadi fighters in Libya or Syria and the US has now made its deal with forces it only now marginally influences via its Saudi benefactor that supports its petroldollar recycling schemes. Eventually the House of Said will lose its influence with al Qaeda as Libya and Syria become their new support base and base of operation. When this happens al Qaeda will directly challenge Bahrain and will draw Saudi Arabia into confrontation with it. It should be noted that the Sunni sect is seen to loathe the form of Islam whereby status is bestowed by virtue of bloodline. The Sunni sect demands that reverence be earned through deed. The House of Saud has attempted to get Saudis to buy into the Christian concept of the Divine Right of Kings, albeit with an Islamic twist. This doctrine is antithetical to Sunni Islam and will be challenged by the Sunni militants who will view themselves as the rightful leaders of Islam after having won these jihadi battles across the Middle East.
Then, all the plans of the US and Israeli Zionists, and that of the monarchies established across Sunni Islam will be thwarted and the monarchies will be targeted for dissolution. No amount of US power will stop this tide and we will see the true rise of Islam, and I don’t mean the corrupted Saudi version of it. Then, the monarchies occupying Islam will vanish from the pages of history and the US will be at the mercy of Islam. At this point Pakistan will fall and Islam will have a nuclear arsenal. Once the Middle East is under Islamic control, then nuclear weapons will proliferate to challenge US and Israeli domination. Then we will see if the US wants to engage in nuclear standoffs with radical Islam in the way it engaged in standoffs with the former Soviet Union. At this point Iranian Shiites will not only want, but also need nuclear weapons.
This chaos is as sure to come as the rising sun or the collapse of the US economy. Our elites will then collude with the Sunni caliphate just as they had colluded with the Saudis before. Then, the US will have to decide if it is going to continue to cater to Israeli interests or that of the Sunnis who will then have a large conventional military and nuclear forces at its disposal. At that point Israel will face the same Sunni fighters Syria now faces and it will no longer have unlimited US support. If one thinks Sunni Islam will accept second fiddle to Israeli interests, one would be a fool. It is assured the US will eventually go with the Sunnis as it will be unable to stem the tide of militant Islam it had unwisely unleashed and thought it could control. Control is an illusionary thing that is confused for two groups having the same short-term interests. What the US needs to consider is that Sunni long-term interests are incompatible with theirs and the long-term will eventually become the present. Then, all of Sunni Islam will be able to stand as one against US and Israeli interests and the US will be forced to begin catering to Shiites as they then try to balance Sunni power.
As these times come to pass everyone will realize it would have been better to not have meddled by destabilizing governments, but by then hindsight will be 20/20 and the course of history will have already been set. Then, we will listen to the next crop of corrupt politicians try to lead us into battle as they profit from war. Finally, history will realize that Ahmadinejad was a moderate but miss the days when they were able to brand him as a radical. If the US thinks Ahmadinejad was a radical, they haven’t seen radicalism until they have seen al Qaeda control a couple of countries.
May you live in interesting times.
you need to stop spouting propaganda as if its informed comment. do some research. Osma bin lyin’ was a CIA agent- just like the ones they’re using now all over the middle east in the ‘arab spring’
Americans should see the Youtube video “If Americans Knew”. Then for sure they would abandon the Zionist criminal and FASCIST state. Israel is no democracy. It is a crime syndicate that is committing ethnic cleansing and genocide.
Zionism is a false doctrine and a cult within Christianity.
Does Christianity teach that theft, greed, covetousness and murder are all okay if done by Jews to Palestinians?
Google “The Foolish Logic and Dogma of Christian Zionists”.
If Americans had any sense they would abandon the Zionist regime occupying Jerusalem. Luckily for Israelis Americans do not.
BRAVO, SIR!
BRAVO!!!
MORE!
MORE!
ENCORE!!!! PLEASE!
i would hardly call threatening to wipe Israel off the face of the earth, ‘minding their own business’…
everyone seems to be forgetting, GOD ALMIGHTY IS Israel’s PROTECTOR… last i heard, HE don’t need no ‘allies’ .
… just remember, whichever you choose be it BLESSING or curse, you get exactly what you give to that nation… you can take that heart… Those are GOD’S WORDS and HE has never lied!!!
Here is a quote from Satanic Talmud:
Baba Mezia 59b. A rabbi debates God and defeats Him. God admits the rabbi won the debate.
Therefore Satan is Israhell’s protector
the god of the israelis abandoned them 2,000 years ago, while the hebrews were slaughtering one another by the hundreds of thousands in jerusalem.
the romans tried to prevent the jews from destroying the temple there, which herod had restored just a few years earlier. the jews refused to relocate their armies outside the gates of the city to spare the non-combatants further injury. the jews refused, and their civil war continued, even while they were fighting against the romans outside the city.
sadder still, prior to the roman’s arrival, a group of bandits had besieged jerusalem, and their assault against the walls of the city had weakened them to the extent that the romans were able to breach the walls.
this was not the first time the jews had shown their psychopathic nature and turned their back on a god their neighbors feared, who led them out of bondage from egypt and enabled them to conquer “the jewel of the mediterranian.” however, this was the last time their god was forsaken by them.
during the siege, the romans had to venerate the jew’s god, as the priests in the temple were not being allowed to perform their tasks.
finally, the god of israel had enough of the wicked, psychopathic nature of his “chosen people,” and he left them, never to speak to them or their priesthood again.
since then, their only spiritual power has been the power over demons their priests had subdued long ago.
that is what israel (isis – ra – el – the goddess, her son, his father) is today – a demonic nation and religion, spreading the power of their demons.
it totally does not surprise me that the u.s. will stand behind israel, no matter who is in the white house. these are the two most powerful, evil forces on the planet.

Nobody called the the destruction of Israel. This is Zionist propaganda. They merely seek regime change for a corrupt Zionist entity.
What Ahmadinejad said was “The imam (Khomeini) said the Zionist regime occupying Jerusalem should vanish from the pages of history.” It was not Ahmadinejad who actually said it. It was Khomeini who said it, Ahmadinejad merely was making a statement regarding what Khomeini had said.
The words “Israel”, “map” and “wipe out” were never used. This is merely a statement regarding regime change and not the destruction of Israel.
This Zionist propaganda lie has been debunked a million times, but that won’t stop the Zionists from using it a trillion times.
Native people belong in their ancestral homeland.
Long live Israel.
The occupier that need to go is Islam and take that dome off the Holy sight.
That will happen in the next war.
Most Jews are Khazars i.e. self styled Jews. Real Jews are Palestinians, who converted from Judaism to Christianity then to Islam. No wonder Zio-Nazi Khazars hate native Palestinians so much.
Antodd 2 Netanyahu is the aggressor, Iran is simply stating they are willing to defend themselves against a purely unprovoked attack. Look what has happened to Syria at the hands of the U.S. and Israel they are destroying that country just like they did to Libya. What do you expect Iran to do? They know they are next. I’m sick of the hypocricy: “Do as we say not what we do ourselves” Bullies pretending to be victims.
What do you do when a friend stops being a friend, and starts taking advantage of you….
I wish Israel would forsake America., We all would be better off.
