Was the Mossad behind the bombing of the Askariya shrine?

Neocon Advocates Civil War in Iraq as “Strategic” Policy

Commentary and review by David Duke

As my listeners and readers know, I have been saying for quite a while that Israel and the Jewish Neocons want a destabilized Iraq even if it harms American objectives there and even if it furthers terrorism against Americans around the world. The Zionists don’t want a pro-Iran, united Iraqi regime to emerge from the occupation, for that runs counter to Israeli strategic interests.

At the same time, increased terrorism against America and the West emanating from a destabilized Iraq will continue to create a climate where Israel will be supported as an “anti-terrorist ally.” In Lebanon Israel did everything it could to foment civil war between Christians and Muslims, even going so far as to facilitate the Sabre and Shatila massacre of over 1200 Palestinians. I suspect that Israel’s Mossad was behind the recent bombing of the one of the holiest sites in Iraq, the Askariya shrine, and is doing everything it can to engender sectarian strife in Iraq.

Now a new article on CounterPunch discusses the Neocon agenda on behalf of an Iraqi Civil War.

Daniel Pipes Finds Comfort in Muslims Killing Muslims

Here is a quote from the article:

One of the abiding myths about the War on Iraq is that the Neocons were too stupid to realize that they would confront an unrelenting, indigenous resistance to their occupation of Iraq. Unwittingly, the story line goes, they led the U.S. into a conflict which has now produced a civil war. But this simply does not fit the facts. The Neocons clearly anticipated such an outcome before they launched their war as Stephen Zunes documents in Antiwar.com:

“Top analysts in the CIA and State Department, as well as large numbers of Middle East experts, warned that a U.S. invasion of Iraq could result in a violent ethnic and sectarian conflict. Even some of the war’s intellectual architects acknowledged as much: In a 1997 paper, prior to becoming major figures in the Bush foreign policy team, David Wurmser, Richard Perle, and Douglas Feith predicted that a post-Saddam Iraq would likely be “ripped apart” by sectarianism and other cleavages but called on the United States to “expedite” such a collapse anyway.”

Yet the line persists that the Neocons had no idea what they were getting into. This cannot be correct as they think a lot about what they do and they plan carefully. Not only is that charge absurd on the face of it, but it is arrogant on the part of those who level it. And it is the worst political mistake possible ­ underestimating your adversary.

Rev. Dale Crowley

Christian Radio Host Fired
For Criticizing Israel
20 Year Host Dale Crowley Told ‘You Can’t Talk About That’

By Michael Collins Piper

The unAmerican thought police operating on American soil have struck once again. This time their victim is veteran Christian evangelist Dale Crowley, Jr. who has been the host of two popular radio programs broadcast over WFAX 1220-AM radio in the Washington area for the last 20 years.

Crowley was told by Doris Newcomb, president and general manager of WFAX, that his Saturday morning broadcast, “Focus on Israel,” was terminated immediately. He was not even given an opportunity to bid farewell to his longtime listeners.

The program was canceled by the WFAX management because supporters of Israel had complained to the radio station about Crowley’s criticisms of Israel.

Over the years Crowley has been critical of Israel. He has dared to broadcast facts about efforts by the Israeli government to curtail the work of Christian missionaries in the Holy Land, even to the extent, as Crowley has pointed out, of laws introduced in the Israeli parliament that would penalize Christians who engage in missionary work among the Israelis, requiring that those convicted of evangelism be sent to jail.

In addition, Crowley has used his WFAX broadcast to tell Christians in the Washington area of how the Israelis have oppressed Christian Palestinians, uprooting them from their homes, vandalized Christian churches in the Holy Land, and otherwise made life difficult for Christian Palestinians and other Christian Arabs in the Middle East.

Crowley has upset many supporters of Israel by pointing out that under the thinking of such Christian supporters of Israel as Jerry Falwell, Pat Robertson and Tim LaHaye, a New York-born Jewish atheist has more right to live in the holy city of Jerusalem than a Palestinian Christian minister whose family has lived there for 1,000 years.
