Sibel Edmonds Case: the untellable story of AIPAC

By Lukery

Last week, former FBI translator Sibel Edmonds, announced that she was willing to tell everything that she knows if any of the major networks are willing to give her airtime, without airbrushing the essence of her case. Bradblog will have an update on the progress, or lack of it, next week.

Of course, Sibel would prefer to testify under oath in congress, but apparently our Democratic Congresscritters (I’m looking at you, Waxman) don’t care about the treason, bribery, and corruption that has hijacked US foreign policy.

Meanwhile, last week we learnt that the judge in the AIPAC case has allowed subpoenas to be issued to 15 current and former high-level officials. Many of us are excited about the prospect of the trial - but Sibel assures us that the case, as it stands, is just the tip of the iceberg.

‘AIPAC’ is at the core of Sibel’s case, and Sibel’s story needs to be heard - either in Congress, or in the media.

Those of you who have been following Sibel’s case will be familiar with the American Turkish Council (ATC) - the ‘mini-AIPAC’ that (ostensibly) exists to promote Turkey’s military interests in the US.

As it happens, the ATC is a creation of AIPAC (and other Israeli lobbying interests) - and there is significant overlap in the membership, goals and activities of both AIPAC and the ATC. This is perhaps not surprising given the long-standing tri-lateral military (and military ‘defense’ spending) relationship between the three countries. In fact, Sibel refers to AIPAC and the ATC as ’sister organizations.’
