America Lost Her Independence the Day the Attack on Liberty was Whitewashed

In the greatest service of his long public life, former President Jimmy Carter warns of the grave consequences of America’s phenomenal subservience to Israel. In his latest book and recent lectures, he focuses on how Israel’s cruel occupation, made possible by massive and unconditional U.S. support, has subjected the Palestinian people to terrible suffering for 40 long years.

Beyond that grave human tragedy, candid observers must cite U.S. complicity in Israeli lawlessness as the major factor that prompted the horror of 9-11 and lured America into launching three costly, wrong-headed and failing wars—Afghanistan, Iraq and the war on terror.

The linkage is easily identified. America’s support of Israel’s brutality was the main motivation for 9-11. Nine-eleven would not have happened if any U.S. president in the last 40 years had refused to finance Israel’s humiliation and destruction of Palestine.

Michael Scheuer, a former CIA analyst now a consultant to CBS News, recently told a congressional committee that “our unqualified support of Israel” was the main reason for 9/11. Marine Gen. Anthony Zinni, President George W. Bush’s first special envoy to the Middle East, has stated that the United States invaded Iraq for Israel and oil.

The U.S. acts of war in Afghanistan and the war on terror were President Bush’s retaliation for 9-11—Israel and only Israel—urged the United States to invade Iraq. Israel’s lobby in Washington pushed hard and prevailed.

Despite this grim record, U.S. subservience to the wishes of Israel’s leaders does not change. Israel is the only nation urging the United States to attack Iran. The lobby is pushing hard again. If the United States assaults Iran it will be on Israel’s behalf. (more…)

Sanctuary Policy: Killing Americans In Their Own Cities

By Frosty Wooldridge

American citizens in their own country suffer more deaths via illegal aliens in the United States annually than combat soldiers in Iraq.

U.S. House Representative Newt Gingrich said, “There is a war here at home, and it is even more deadly than the war in Iraq and Afghanistan. Far more Americans are being killed by violent, evil people here in America than in our official military “combat zones” overseas.”

Terry Anderson, Los Angeles radio talk show host, theterryandersonshow.com, while speaking on the Peter Boyles Show this week, said, ”People here in LA are getting executed because of their race. Where are the black leaders on this? If those black students in Newark were killed by a white man, Sharpton and Jesse Jackson would be marching in the streets. If we don’t put a hold on this invasion, it’s going to get worse and worse. If we don’t get a handle on this, it can and will get worse in Newark because the numbers are driven by illegal immigration…when Hispanics took over in South Central LA, race riots against blacks began. They took over Martin Luther King Day and Black History Month. It’s now 96 percent Hispanics (Mexicans).”

Last week, three college bound students in Newark, New Jersey suffered execution-style killings by two illegal aliens—made possible by the “Sanctuary Policy.”

In 1979, Police Chief Daryl Gates of Los Angeles instituted a “Sanctuary Policy” known as Special Order 40. That decree allowed illegal aliens immunity from law enforcement. No matter how heinous their crimes, their immigration status could not be determined, which meant they could not be deported. It created an avalanche of ‘protected’ and ‘ignored’ crime. It mandated two-tiered justice.
