The Pre-election Window for War with Iran

Israel and its fifth column within America are highly motivated to provoke a confrontation with Iran before the election because that is the most assured way of getting U.S. support which is necessary for Israel to achieve its goals, Dr Kevin MacDonald, professor of psychology at California State University, Long Beach has said.

Writing on the Occidental Observer blog, Dr MacDonald came to this conclusion after analyzing the slavishly pro-Israel positions of both Mitt Romney and Barack Obama.

“My basic view of Obama is that he is a sincere (anti-White) leftist in the age of globalism and multiculturalism. His natural sympathies are far more on the side of the non-White masses of the Third World, including the Palestinians, than they are for expending American military power yet again on behalf of the American Jewish community. The reality of Israel as an apartheid state bent on ethnic cleansing and reducing the Palestinians to an impoverished, dependent, and powerless people is fundamentally repulsive to a sincere leftist.

Nevertheless, Obama understands the power of Jews in the American media and the political process, not the least of which is the huge role that wealthy Jews play as donors to the Democratic Party. Although he hasn’t gone quite as far as Romney in towing the AIPAC line, Obama retains strong support among Jewish Democrats, such as Alan Dershowitz, and I suspect that in the end around 70% of American Jews will vote Democrat compared to around 80% in 2008.

Nevertheless, from Israel’s perspective the prospect of an Obama victory prior to dealing with Iran is problematic. Without having to worry about another election, Obama’s gut instincts as an honest leftist come into play, and I suspect he would do everything he could to avoid a confrontation with Iran. His difficult personal relationship with Netanayahu and his lack of sympathy with the Israeli ethnonationalist right that is calling the shots would make him very reluctant to sign on to a war with Iran.

Nor would a newly elected Romney be a sure thing for Israel. Fundamentally, I rather doubt that Romney has any principles at all, other than to get elected

Putting this together, I conclude that Israel and its fifth column are highly motivated to provoke a confrontation with Iran before the election because that is the most assured way of getting U.S. support which is necessary for Israel to achieve its goals.”
