USA and Palestine

So the Americans want to punish UNESCO because sovreign states, not the Organization, decided that it is time for Palestine to be considered as a State irrespective of what Israel and the Jewish American lobby think.

And once again US internal politics prevail over common sense.

Certainly, the right wing Republicans and the Democrats elected in areas with a strong Jewish constituency will celebrate.  But what do they celebrate ? the increasing loss of credibility of American Foreign Policy and influence ? Because that is the vote at UNESCO. Narrow minded blinded idiots.

In any case the US had left UNESCO once already in the past, and UNESCO survived very well. It will be the same this time, adding insult to injury to the US foreign policy (lead, do not forget, by Hillary Clinton whose Senate election depends upon the NY Jewsih vote).

The decline of the USA continues but they do not want to realize it. And Obama makes another big mistake....

IDIOTS XII

Do you remember Stalin having pictures "edited" so that former friends he had  made disappear (understatement) would not appear next to him any longer ?

Der Tzitung, a Brooklin based hasidic newspaper, in yddish, did better: it erased from the picture of the situation room where Obama and his aides were following the attack to Bin Laden compound the only two women: Hillary Clinton and Audrey Tomason, Obama's aide for counterterrorism.

This was done, according to the editor, in compliance qith Jewish religion, not to show images of women....does it remind you something of Muslim integralism ?

Funnily enough, Sen. Clinton has been elected mostly thanks to the Jewish vote....but they erase her.

Idiots are evenly spread around the world, but idiots they remain.

THE BLINDNESS OF US FOREIGN POLICY

The Arab world is in turmoil, the traditional US allies, corrupt and authoritarian regimes, are falling, the key country the US were relying upon for keeping some peace in the Middle East, Egypt, will go its own way. The entire castle, built over the years and that everybody knew was fragile, is collapsing.


Certainly Obama was fast in adapting to the Egyptian crisis (but the entire army is US trained, armed and financed!), has more difficulties in dealing with Libya and has no clue as to how to deal with Bahrain.

What is clear to all, and should be to the Obama's government, is that the Middle East will no longer be the same and relationships with the Arab world will be totally different. And as a consequence, the Israeli-Palestinian problem needs to be looked at in a different perspective.
Clear and simple. But not for the US and the blind Ms. Clinton whose electorate comprises the powerful Jewish community of New York State. So, yesterday, the US opposed a veto to a resolution condemning the Israeli settlements in occupied territories, which goes against previously voted Security Council resolutions.

The statements made by the US ambassador after the vetos do not change the facts: the US had a golden opportunity to show that it had understood that the Middle East is no longer the same. They had the opportunity to show to the Arab masses that they had understood and that the illegal and scandalous policy of Israel had lost the US support.

They missed everything and this will not help a settlement in the area. The masses, mad at their "leaders" (or better at the dictators that reign), will win, sooner than later. And then they will revolt against the US. A crisis nobody can imagine as yet.

It's Foreign Policy, idiot, get rid of Ms Clinton and be real. We are fed up of paying for the errors of the US blinded foreign policy.

Berlusconi: Haiti's rescuer

So, Berlusconi sent the second most powerful man in Italy, Mr. Bertolaso, his right hand in civil protection to “inspect” the rescue efforts in Haiti.. Among the may things Bertolaso did for Berlusconi, was Iraq (Italian Red Cross), the garbage crisis in Napoli, the G8 planning and the earthquake in the Abruzzi, early 2009.

His conclusions were clear: lack of co-ordination, too many US military, too much promotion by all rescue agencies, too much emphasis on boats that have no “link” with the territory, he would have done all this differently.

Little detail Ms. Clinton and the Italian UN representative pointed out: Haiti is not the Abruzzi, Haiti is poor, in Abruzzi there were less than 300 deaths, in Haiti more than 150,000 and may-be more, Abruzzi in the middle of a developed country, Port au Prince is in the middle of one of the poorest countries in the world. And how is it that Italy itself is sending a military boat if these are useless ? In Haiti there are at least 370,000 people who lost their house, in Abruzzi less than 30,000.
In Italy there is infrastructure, in Haiti there is none and the little that was, was destroyed.

But Bertolaso could not care less, he is like his boss, he says anything crosses his mind so that people talk of him.

Ms Clinton was right saying that what Bertolaso had said had the value of those talks people make in bars on a Monday about foot-ball matches. But did she ever realized that this is exactly what Berlusconi does: bar talks with illiterate people.

A clown, full of himself, serving a clown. But I promise you: soon, on the (in)famous web site to support Berlusconi’s claim for a Nobel Peace Prize we will see that it is thanks to Bertolaso, sent and supported by Berlusconi, that rescues efforts in Haiti were successful.

Berlusconi and Bertolaso do not even have the decency to respect the tragedy of one of the poorest countries in the world.

OBAMA AND ISRAEL

Yesterday Obama met Netanyahu. Late announcement of the visit, no cameras, no joint communiqué.

But the White House press release does not mention, again, the freeze of Israeli colonies and simple refers to Israel’s security.

During the day, however, the White House spokesman had stated that the US policy had not changed since decades and was for the end of colonies in occupied territories. Contradicting in this way Hillary Clinton (see http://aprile25.blogspot.com/2009/11/one-year-ago-obama-taking-power-had.html ).

It seems that she did it again. Or is it a game by the US diplomacy, two people, two contradicting positions ? When the US will understand that to stop Muslim fundamentalism and terrorism around the world, Israel must adhere to the UN Security Council Resolution 242 (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_Nations_Security_Council_Resolution_242 ) and withdraw from all occupied territories ? and that the World is tired of the lack of security created by the US Zionist lobby? A few million Americans holding the world hostage with their blind support of Israel.

Obama’s betrayal of Palestinians

One year ago, Obama taking power, had stated in no uncertain terms that the sine qua non condition for a successful peace process in the Middle East, was the total freeze of any Israeli colonization in the occupied territories and in Jerusalem.

As reported by Le Monde, on 27 May 2009 Ms Clinton stated “The President has been very clear with Mr. Netanayahou:he wants that colonization be stopped. No a few colonies, no wild colonies, no demographic exception”

However last week, during an official visit to the Middle East, Ms Clinton stated that “the freeze of colonization had never been a condition for the resumption of the peace negotiations”. Now she talks about limitation of colonization as a major step towards peace.

And the Israeli vice foreign minister to say : “we now have the evidence that the USA are our the best friends”

Nothing surprising in the US position if one looks at Ms Clinton: pro-Palestinians as President’s wife, pro Israeli as soon as she decided to run for a senate seat in NY, just to get the Jews votes.

And possibly, this dramatic switch in position of Obama’s administration, is to be seen in light of the elections taking place today: keep the votes of the Jews.

What is dramatic and scandalous is that a handful of Americans Jews keep million of poor Palestinians hostage, support that their land be stolen, close their eyes to the stealing of water by Israel, finance the buying of arms to kill innocent children and women. Of course, they live in the US and it is sufficient for them to blackmail politicians to deny Palestinians their fundamental Human Rights.

Obama is wrong and has been ill advised, he chose the war instead of peace.
