Mainstream Media Silent on Bugliosi Book About Bush
The New York Times
http://iht.com/ articles/ 2008/07/06/ business/ BUGLIOSI07. php

As a Los Angeles county prosecutor, Vincent Bugliosi batted a thousand in murder cases: 21 trials, 21 convictions, including the Charles Manson case in 1971. As an author, Mr. Bugliosi has written three No. 1 best sellers and won three Edgar Allan Poe awards, the top honor for crime writers. More than 30 years ago he co-wrote the best seller “Helter Skelter,” about the Manson case … His latest, a polemic with the provocative title “The Prosecution of George W. Bush for Murder,” has risen to best-seller status with nary a peep from the usual outlets that help sell books: cable television and book reviews in major daily newspapers.

Churchill and the Jews: A Lifelong Friendship
Glenn Frankel - The Washington Post
http://www.washingt onpost.com/ wp-dyn/content/ article/2007/ 12/13/AR20071213 01470.html

… Churchill’s profound admiration for the Jews, which was not shared by many of his closest political colleagues, was all the more amazing because it survived the rise of Bolshevism, which Churchill abhorred and which he believed was dominated, intellectually and politically, by men and women of Jewish origin. It even survived the turbulent years during and after World War II when Zionist extremists conducted a campaign of political murder against British officials, policemen and soldiers.

Zionist Historians Confirm Role of Jewish Money in Politics

… Obama is playing Twister on Israel and Jerusalem because of Jewish influence (as the Nation’s Ari Berman said some weeks back in a rare violation of the taboo). Obama seeks Jewish media support, he wants Jewish money, which is central to the American political process … I need to take this issue of Jewish money on directly. It is simply too important to our politics. So I’m going to quote from four books, two of them by rightwing Zionists, that speak frankly of the role of Jewish money in establishing and securing the state of Israel. All emphases are mine.

A Straight Look at the Jewish Lobby
Mark Weber
http://www.ihr. org/leaflets/ jewishlobby. shtml

… For decades the US has provided Israel with crucial military, diplomatic and financial backing, including more than $3 billion each year in aid. Why is the US such a staunch bastion of support for Israel? … Although Jews make up only two or three percent of the US population, they wield immense power and influence - much more than any other ethnic or religious group … The “Jewish lobby” is a decisive factor in US support for Israel. Jewish-Zionist interests are not identical to American interests. In fact, they often conflict.

Berlin Forum Calls for Israel’s Destruction
The Jerusalem Post (Israel)
http://www.jpost. com/servlet/ Satellite? pagename= JPost%2FJPArticl e%2FShowFull&cid=1214492527905

Representatives of Germany’s foreign and economics ministries are fumbling the hot potato of who, exactly, backed a conference in Berlin last week that became a mouthpiece for anti-Semitic Iranian propaganda and a call for Israel’s destruction. Iran’s former deputy minister of foreign Affairs, Dr. Muhammad Javad Ardashir Larijani, told the Third Transatlantic Conference - whose stated purpose was to address “common solutions” in the Middle East - that “the Zionist project” should be “cancelled” and “has failed miserably and has only caused terrible damage to the region.”

Americans Are Losing Sense of National Identity
Bradley Project
http://www.bradleyp roject.org/ bradleyprojectpr ess.html# release

The Bradley Project on America’s National Identity today released its Report, “E Pluribus Unum, “the product of a two-year study involving a number of our nation’s leading academics, public figures, journalists, educators and policy experts … The troubling news is that over six in ten believe our national identity is getting weaker. And “even more troubling is that younger Americans - on whom our continued national identity depends - are less likely than older Americans to believe in a unique national identity or in a unique American culture.”

Jewish Community in Former USSR Under Threat of Assimilation
Haaretz (Israel)
http://www.haaretz. com/hasen/ spages/999404. html

The Jewish community in the former Soviet Union could disappear in a generation unless assimilation is curbed there, Prime Minister Ehud Olmert told the weekly cabinet meeting on Sunday. The government decided to set up a special body to increase immigration from those countries and strengthen Jewish identity there.

Avraham Burg’s Harsh Critique of Israel: The Holocaust Is Over
Eric Rouleau — Le Monde Diplomatique (France)
http://mondediplo. com/2008/ 05/17judaism

Avraham Burg is the scourge of the Israeli establishment. Though he has been in turn a prominent leader of the Labour Party, chairman of the World Zionist Organisation and speaker of the Knesset, he regularly expresses opinions at odds with those of most of his fellow Israelis … Zionist leaders have made use of the Holocaust in a variety of ways. It can be used as emotional blackmail to bring both political and financial advantage … The Israeli authorities thereby guarantee themselves impunity, whatever their violations of international law and human rights, and whatever war crimes they carry out …
