Mossad Backs Ahmadinejad

Mossad chief Meir Dagan backs Ahmadinejad as Iran's president, no surprise there, move along, nothing to see. Wonder if that is why all the Jews in Iran voted for him? I wrote about Israel doing all it could to ensure he was re-elected, you can read it here. Today, in a blind panic, the Chief of Mossad said this:
"The reality in Iran is not going to change because of the elections. The world and we already know [Iranian President Mahmoud] Ahmadinejad. If the reformist candidate [Mir Hossein] Mousavi had won, Israel would have had a more serious problem because it would need to explain to the world the danger of the Iranian threat, since Mousavi is perceived internationally arena as a moderate element ... It is important to remember that he is the one who began Iran's nuclear program when he was prime minister." link

IRANS ELECTION~Obama's HUGE Mistake

Obama’s Wheel Just Fell Off his Wagon
By Ban Sidhe http://irish4palestine.blogspot.com

Why Oh Why can’t Americans learn NOT to interfere in the elections of other countries? America is up to it's collective arse in what is taking place in Iran right now, including a link to Obama. Don't believe me? Keep reading for an eye opener.

Of course I am talking about the Iran elections here. Perhaps the reason why America cannot refrain from interfering is that they have had success in the past at overthrowing governments they don’t like using the very same tactic they are using now in Iran. The American government is 100% behind what we are seeing take place in Tehran right now. It’s the very same operation they have used before. It is called an “Orange Revolution”

I need to make a preface here. Obviously people, including myself, want to see countries become more progressive, open and democratic. But, (there is ALWAYS a but) that does not translate into covert operations by the American’s and others to fast track the natural process. I believe each country has the right to develop at its own course. Because to force progress before it’s natural time can prove disastrous, for the country, and for American interest. Think Shah of Iran. By imposing the Shah of Iran, who attempted to suddenly turn Iran into a mini-America, against the will of its people at the time. This resulted in his eventual ousting and the Islamic Revolution which gave birth to Iran today.

So, America is at it again attempting to create another “Orange Revolution” what is an “Orange Revolution” Well, it is a well crafted, well funded, well trained covert operation to overthrow Governments at the ballot box by supporting pro-western candidates. This is something America has done for years, each time they learn and adapt the operation based on success or failure. Here is a success example where the Americans used this in Ukraine, notice some of the groups involved:
From Wiki:

Activists in each of these movements were funded and trained in tactics of political organization and nonviolent resistance by a coalition of Western pollsters and professional consultants funded by a range of Western government and non-government agencies. According to The Guardian, these include the U.S. State Department and USAID along with the National Democratic Institute for International Affairs, the International Republican Institute, the Bilderberg Group, the NGO Freedom House and George Soros's Open Society Institute. The National Endowment for Democracy, a foundation supported by the U.S. government, has supported non-governmental democracy-building efforts in Ukraine since 1988.[15] Writings on nonviolent struggle by Gene Sharp formed the strategic basis of the student campaigns.
Ok, so it worked this time and no one can argue that Democracy is not a good thing. The problem is how the Americans go about it, additionally it does not always work and it only proves that America meddles in the affairs of other countries. This creates anti-American sentiment, the very thing Obama claims he wants to “change” Using these tactics in Ukraine is not even remotely like meddling in the Middle East, where America is supposedly attempting to re-create ties with Muslims and to show that it no longer is in Israel's pocket and generally respect the will of the voters in Arab countries it does not necessarily agree with, or even like. Hello America, the Middle East is NOT Europe.

Here is a snippet from the Guardian about the "Orange Revolution"
But while the gains of the orange-bedecked "chestnut revolution" are Ukraine's, the campaign is an American creation, a sophisticated and brilliantly conceived exercise in western branding and mass marketing that, in four countries in four years, has been used to try to salvage rigged elections and topple unsavoury regimes.

Funded and organised by the US government, deploying US consultancies, pollsters, diplomats, the two big American parties and US non-government organisations, the campaign was first used in Europe in Belgrade in 2000 to beat Slobodan Milosevic at the ballot box.

Ten months after the success in Belgrade, the US ambassador in Minsk, Michael Kozak, a veteran of similar operations in central America, notably in Nicaragua, organised a near identical campaign to try to defeat the Belarus hardman, Alexander Lukashenko.

That one failed. "There will be no Kostunica in Belarus," the Belarus president declared, referring to the victory in Belgrade.

The operation - engineering democracy through the ballot box and civil disobedience - is now so slick that the methods have matured into a template for winning other people's elections. link
America has a "None Too Good" history with Middle Eastern countries and as such, should stay out of the affairs of Middle Eastern countries other than talking to them and negotiating with them honestly. The US will never gain trust or support among Middle East countries if they are working behind the scenes to over throw them. Even countries that may at this time support a regime change in Iran, will still be sitting there thinking that the Americans could come for them next.... This, exactly is the problem!

Also, I cannot help but notice how there are a great many similarities between how Obama ran his campaign and how an Orange Revolution is run. More on that in a minute.

Now, I was a supporter of Mousavi, well actually I liked Mehdi Karroubi in Iran, like I liked Dennis Kucinich in America, but knew neither one had a chance to win. That said, the reality is that Ahmadinejad does have massive support outside of Tehran. Americans might want to re-read that. Never mind what your US media is telling you, this is the truth. Tehran has a young yuppie population, well educated men and women who are pushing for more freedoms. Fair play to them. However, the majority of the population outside of Tehran are poor people. And it is there Ahmadinejad has massive full support. He has this support because of his policies for the poor. Mousavi on the other hand, wants to cut off aid to the poor and bring in Western businesses and make Iran more of a capitalist country. So this election was about much more than just allowing more “freedoms” for the Iranian people. Wealthy urban Iranians want freedoms, whilst poor Iranians want help and support. Get it? Although that is NOT what your media is telling you this is about.
From the Guardian:

The election results in Iran may reflect the will of the Iranian people. Many experts are claiming that the margin of victory of incumbent President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad was the result of fraud or manipulation, but our nationwide public opinion survey of Iranians three weeks before the vote showed Ahmadinejad leading by a more than 2 to 1 margin – greater than his actual apparent margin of victory in Friday's election.

While western news reports from Tehran in the days leading up to the voting portrayed an Iranian public enthusiastic about Ahmadinejad's principal opponent, Mir Hossein Mousavi, our scientific sampling from across all 30 of Iran's provinces showed Ahmadinejad well ahead.

The breadth of Ahmadinejad's support was apparent in our pre-election survey. During the campaign, for instance, Mousavi emphasised his identity as an Azeri, the second-largest ethnic group in Iran after Persians, to woo Azeri voters. Our survey indicated, though, that Azeris favoured Ahmadinejad by 2 to 1 over Mousavi.
Much commentary has portrayed Iranian youth and the internet as harbingers of change in this election. But our poll found that only a third of Iranians even have access to the internet, while 18-to-24-year-olds comprised the strongest voting bloc for Ahmadinejad of all age groups

The only demographic groups in which our survey found Mousavi leading or competitive with Ahmadinejad were university students and graduates, and the highest-income Iranians.
The reality is, that the US government and it’s “groups” and money were, and are, behind Mousavi AND this movement of progressives in Tehran. Just like they were in Ukraine. Whilst they may have had success using this tactic in the past, the Iranians are smart and have seen this taking place in their country. And, as hard as this is to hear, they have the very right to stop America from interfering inside their country.

The very sad part America needs to grasp, is that by leaving Iran alone, it will move forward on its own, at its own speed, in its own way. Iran is responsive to its people, even though America likes to say it is not. Would it happen overnight? No, but for it to be real and to last it must take place naturally, not at the behest of CIA and American intervention in a country that America has already screwed up once (Shah!!) This created the very mess that exists today. And now, Obama wants to create another mess in Iran, and he has.

Another thing that points directly at Obama Admin involvement is this little piece of information. During the Obama campaign we saw many things. We were meant to believe there was a giant groundswell behind him, that this happened naturally. It did not. Some of the same organisations and people who rallied around and supported the Obama campaign in various ways, are also poking their nose into the affairs of Iran. Or at the very least, “studying” it for the US government. One organisation that is studying Iran is called the Internet and democracy project from the Berkman centre for Internet and society at Harvard. Don’t forget Obama taught at Harvard and made many connections there. Many people associated with the Berkman center are associated with Obama. For instance, here’s just one tiny example; Lawrence Lessig:
From Wiki:
Lessig has known president Barack Obama since their days teaching law at the University of Chicago,

To this end, he (Lessig) worked with political consultant Joe Trippi to launch a web based project called "Change Congress".[6] In a press conference on March 20, 2008.
Now, anyone who followed the Obama campaign will know that Joe Trippi was involved in Obama’s campaign AND Howard Dean's campaign. That's just one very small example, research the people in all of these groups, and you'll soon see the same names popping up all over the "Progressive" internet world and also surrounding Obama's campaign to become POTUS.Now back to the Berkman center’s study of Iran
This case study is part of a series produced by the Internet and Democracy project. The initial studies include three of the most frequently cited examples of the Internet’s influence on democracy.

the Internet may be shifting the power dynamics around Sharia debate in Iran. Hassan writes, “The more Iranian cyberspace grows, the more Sharia discourse becomes public and intersubjective and reaches out to the broader world. The emergent Iranian right-based readings of Sharia in cyberspace contain new promises and aspirations, not only for the Iranian people, but also for the entire Muslim world and even for the world community.”
They even have a handy dandy little Iranian blogosphere map here

Ok, so what’s the problem? Here’s the problem. Take a look at the people and agencies who have donated or funded the Berkman Center at Harvard. Here are two examples that are VERY troubling:
Support for Current Activities

We warmly thank the following sponsors for their sponsorship of the Berkman Center's research and events. When sponsorship is project-specific, sponsors will also appear directly on project pages.
United States Department of State

Past Support
While the particular gift may have supported past work, we remain indebted to our past supporters for their generosity and collaboration.
The Open Society Institute of the Soros Foundation
So are you troubled yet? Remember the link earlier in this diary where the State Department was included in the groups who worked in the Orange Revolution in the Ukraine? And now we see the State Department linked directly to the Berkman Center above,(who appear to currently be "researching" Iran) along with Soros, another one involved in Orange Revolutions. So here's the question for Americans: Has the American progressive left under Obama hypnosis sold out and are they now working in cahoots with the State Department to use the Internet to overthrow and interfere in elections on other countries? If so, then this makes them part and parcel of the US government, or at least an agent of the US government, and NOT an impartial group in any stretch of the imagination. They have an agenda and that agenda is obviously the same as the State Departments agenda.

And even more troubling is that today Germany and the British are now getting involved in the Iran kurfuffle and throwing their “two cents” into the arena. Calling for an investigation (at the behest of the Americans) into the Iran elections. This is disgraceful.

So Let’s talk about American elections for a minute, when they are questioned by American voters who feel hard done, do they receive World outrage like we are seeing towards Iran now? Whilst Americans may be sitting on their arses thinking what happened in Iran is a big deal and needs intervention. Let me remind people that I followed the American election very very closely. And, you could argue that that 48 % of the Democrats felt just like the Reformists do now in Iran. And that is a much larger number of voters than are the Reformists in Iran. Many Americans felt cheated, and just maybe they were. But where was the world outrage?

Obama ran a cut throat campaign, and there were many things that troubled huge portions of the American voting public. 18 Million Hillary Supporters felt cheated about votes not being counted, alleged election fraud (ACORN registering dead people and Mickey Mouse!) Obama’s associations with this organisation and other groups. What about the good ole “Democrat For A Day” campaign? Was that above board? There were allegations of caucus fraud when Clinton won Texas in the vote yet the caucuses went to Obama. Police were called to some caucuses and allegations of cheating filled the air and the blogosphere. There were lawsuits filed. Then there was the Florida, Michigan thing and the DNC Rules Committee, the Donna Brazille thing, the removal of talking heads on CNN who were associated with Clinton, e.g. Paul Begala and James Carvelle, whilst those like Roland Martin
Martin first met Obama at a Congressional Black Caucus dinner in 2003 and they have stayed in touch. He was part of a group of liberal commentators granted an audience with the president-elect days before the inauguration. In television, says Martin, "you cannot have the same people talking to folks in a changed America."

In other words, Barack Obama’s ascension to power should be matched by Roland Martin’s ascension to a prime-time hosting seat. link
(who’s daughter actually worked for Obama Campaign) was allowed to remain working for CNN and trumpeting for Obama alongside Brazille on a daily basis. This gave birth to the “No Deal” campaign and the PUMA’s who organised and even went so far as to create television commercials and pressure for a roll call at the DNC convention to place Clinton’s name forward. These Hillary supporters created havoc in the streets, online and even at the DNC’s convention to coronate Obama when they attempted a Roll Call on the floor.

Yet, where was Germany and England when that happened? Why was an investigation not called for that? Is it only when “other” countries have the same types of things happen that those who purport to support democracy decide to “get involved?”

I'm not saying I supported Clinton or Obama, what I am saying is there are many similarities between Iran's election and Americans recent Presidential Election Primaries. I mean really, you cannot have it both ways. What took place in Obama’s election was never seen before, it was totally divisive whilst he continued to run under the premise of a “uniter” and at no time made any attempts to quell his supporter’s attacks on Clinton supporters or the very REAL misogyny that did exist and was encouraged during his campaign towards Clinton. The DNC was fractured and it ended up taking Clinton 4 days to concede and then there was the Denver Roll Call. I remember all of this and much more. To this day the party remains fractured. Yet, where was the outrage from inside America OR outside at this?

American elections are not immune from allegations of fraud and misconduct, even up to the DNC itself, as outlined above. So, I see this no different than what is taking place in Iran, on a MUCH smaller scale than what happened in America! So, America needs to butt out immediately and stop using it’s allied meddling pals like Germany, England and France to continue to attack Iran over Iranian elections. Which if you stand back and look at this, it is no different than what took place in the recent American election of Obama. Yet Obama was not “overthrown” even though there were many more Clinton supporters who felt cheated than there are Reformists who feel cheated in Iran.

The reality is that the Obama administration is using its contacts, its money men, its so called "Progressive" groups (working with the State Department, e.g. the Government) and US government agencies to interfere again in Iran’s politics. This will not help with Americas enemies and will only serve to cement the fact that although the messenger has change from Bush to Obama the result is the same. Wake up America.

UPDATE x1 Iran has ordered an investigation into the Election, that's more than Americans got. Now who is the democracy?

UPDATE x2: Turkey already not happy with US involvment in Iran:
DIP) TURKEY SAYS CONTROVERSIES OVER IRAN ELECTIONS ARE IRAN'S INTERNAL AFFAIRS ANKARA (A.A) - 15.06.2009 - Turkey's foreign minister said Monday controversies over presidential elections in Iran were Iran's internal affairs.


UPDATE X3 shots have been reported in Iran at a rally in Tehran over the election. Way to go America, people will die now.

Massive Rioting In Iran

The article below cannot sum up what was just shown on television here. Huge throngs of young people taking to the streets, riot police with batons beating them. A BBC journalist was caught up in the fray by accident. He described a man in a car ahead of them, who like the journalist, had no idea what was going on or why traffic had stopped. When the man got out of his car to see what was going on, he was attacked by riot police, the journalist got away. Iran may be able to get control now, but this will fester and won't soon be forgotten by the young generation. Big mistake fiddling with the elections. I think Ahmadinejad, would have probably won by a small margin, but the govt obviously did not want to take that risk. By interfering and keeping Mousavi's people out of the polling stations, not allowing his people to monitor like they were promised, cutting off SMS texting and websites. They have now created an entire generation that has no faith in the election process.
(CBS/AP) Supporters of the main election challenger to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad clashed with police and set up barricades of burning tires Saturday as authorities declared the hard-line president was re-elected in a landslide.

Opponents responded with the most serious unrest in the capital in a decade and charges that the result was the work of a "dictatorship."

Iran's supreme leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, closed the door on any chance he could use his limitless powers to intervene in the disputes from Friday's election. In a message on state TV, he urged the nation to unite behind Ahmadinejad, calling the result a "divine assessment."

But Ahmadinejad's main challenger, Mir Hossein Mousavi, has rejected the result as rigged and urged his supporters to resist a government of "lies and dictatorship." link

"WTF" News Reports..........

In addition to George Mitchel avoiding a bomb in Lebanon, and Israel Praying for Ahmadinejad, and American Zionists Arming Themselves against Obama, there has been some totally bizarro news reports today. The following news stories qualify under the heading of.......
Police in Sierra Leone have called in fire fighters and the army to take control of a police station invaded by hundreds of hissing serpents. The police station in the town of Gerihun -- infested with an estimated 400 snakes -- has left even some of the toughest officers afraid to go to work.

Following the failure in luring out the snakes, sharp-shooters have been invited to the scene.

( So just how DOES one "lure" snakes out of a police station anyway? "Here snakey, snakey, snakey......c'mere you little slithering menace....No, that's clearly NOT working, time to call in the Sharp Shooters LOL, Oh the mental picture LOL) source
Next..........
After a major surge in the number of swine flu cases in the UK, British Health Secretary Andy Burnham asks Britons not to panic. Britain has the largest number of swine flu cases in Europe with 909 cases. Health Protection Agency figures show an estimated 50-100 new cases detected every day.

(But people of Britain, fear not...........)
"People who have flu-like symptoms shouldn't panic, but stay at home and check their symptoms using the online symptom checker or the swine flu information line," he added.
(NO NEED TO PANIC, you can self diagnose yourself online, yeah, what a great idea!!! Cuts down on calls to GP's and ALSO keeps them for getting infected. What's next a "do it yourself" brain surgery, or DIY vascectomy? Ouch!

Needless to say, Curiosity got the better of me, I just HAD to know, so I took the liberty of visiting this "online swine flu checker" that will help us all feel safe, and what's the first thing I read you may ask? More comedy...
"This symptom checker is only suitable for adults and children over 5 years of age."
Anyone else bothered by that sentence? Five year olds diagnosing Swine Flu? Oh, but it gets even better, more comedy from the NHS, they also say this:
"If you are using the symptom checker on behalf of someone else please remember that the questions will be about them."
Words fail me, really they do.... the next page says this:)
This symptom checker is designed for use by yourself or someone you are with.

It may not be safe to use if the person you are enquiring for is not with you.
This begs the question, how does "it" know if you are the person or not? And what does it do to you if you are NOT the person? some sort of medieval from of punishment perhaps? This is getting very confusing.........yup there's more fun and giggles from the NHS:
Before continuing with this questionnaire you need to make sure that:
the person is conscious and reacting to you normally,
or if they are asleep, that they react to gentle shaking.

If you are with the person and you can't get them to react in any way, dial 999 and ask for an ambulance.
(God help us all, still ROFLMAO but in a very scared shitless kinda way)source
NEXT.............
An American police officer shoots a 72-year-old woman with a taser gun after she refused to sign a speeding ticket and confronted him.

When Winkfein refused to sign the speeding ticket, Bieze reportedly ordered her out of her white pick-up truck, told her she was under arrest, and was later caught on camera tasering her for confronting him.

In A Bizarre Twist of Fate

Jews in Iran vote for, you guessed it...........Mahmoud Ahmadinejad. So, this begs the question, are only Jews inside Israel fearful of this man? And if not, then it's just a hop, skip and a jump to Israel, why not leave. Afraid, Not Afraid, Afraid, Not Afraid, Afraid, Not Afraid
Jews Vote For Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

As Iranians head to the polls Friday to elect their next president, Israeli experts expect Iran’s 25,000 Jews to vote for incumbent Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

Isreali experts see support for incumbent. experts predicted Jews would support for Ahmedinejad despite his controversial statements on Israel and the Holocaust.

“They are leaning towards leaving Ahmadinejad in his post because (Mir hossein) Mousavi is unpredictable,”
So, let me get this straight, the Guy who called for Israel to be wiped off the map, is NOT the guy who is "unpredictable" Instead, the moderate progressive guy who wants to make peace IS the scary guy after all. Oh, I see

updated x1 Voting Over In Iran

update, the turnout is so big the closing time for voting has now been extended THREE times, they're still voting!

Take this comment below from the Ahmadinejad camp with a "grain of salt" I think we may see a run-off in a weeks time. The votes will start being counted tonight, then there is 24 hours before anything is announced. Until then it's just speculation. This was, for Iran, a bitter hard fought race with massive nubmers of people taking to the streets for weeks calling for change. We will see.....

3.35pm:
The Ahmadinejad camp claims their man is winning.

"Based on the evaluation of Ahmadinejad's position he is ahead ... with 60% of the votes and we are certain that the election will end in the first round in his favour," Ali Asghar Zarei told Mehr News Agency, according to Reuters.

3.30pm:
Voting should now be over. An anonymous blogger posting on Bazar Dispatch says it took some friends up to two hours to vote

#2 UPDATE Iran's Election

Again, from the Guardian:
2.15pm:
There are still huge queues to vote and the candidates have had to be reminded about the elections rules on campaigning, writes Ian Black from Tehran. IRB TV reports from Shahrikord in southern Iran that lines at polling stations seem to be getting longer as the day goes on. It's the same story in Kerman,

3pm:
Omid, a 28-year old English student, says many of his relatives who had
never voted before have done today - just to get rid of Ahmadinejad
,

He reports visiting many polling stations in the centre and north of Tehran and insists the turnout is far larger than in 1997, when the reformist Mohammed Khatemi won a landslide victory that ushered in a period of liberalisation at home and detente abroad.

Omid's firm conclusion: a Mousavi win today - not in a second round next week. And some of his conservative friends have switched from Ahmadinejad to Rezaei after the president's embarrassing performance on the economy during their TV debate earlier this week.

Ahmadinejad's charts "explaining" his control of inflation and other indices became an instant laughing stock.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> Important Note: If people are switching from Ahmadinejad to Rezaei (hardliner), this is a GOOD thing for Mousavi and the Reformists. It will split Ahmadinejad’s vote which will then cause Mousavi’s vote to increase:) Even so, this thing may go into next week in a run-off, I hope not, but that’s how I see it, hope I’m wrong.

Israel Prays for Ahmadinejad



Tomorow's Game Changer Election

by Declan
http://irish4palestine.blogspot.com

With Iran’s elections tomorrow, Israel has done all it can to ensure another victory for Ahmadinejad.

Since last year Israel has continually war mongered for an attack on Iran. Knowing that a program of continued aggression towards Iran would promote hardliners.

Whenever a country is under constant threat, it does not move forward, it cannot “change” it’s progressive voice is crushed as the country closes ranks in an effort to protect itself from attack. George W. Bush knew this and used it to his advantage to get himself re-elected, using the Politics of Fear to do so. The "threat" level never went below Orange mostly, a dip to Yellow once in a while, but never ever to green. Got to keep the public fat, dumb, and scared shitless to win the election.

Using the politics of fear in an attempt to influence the Iranian elections, this is Israel’s game plan, and has been Israels game plan all along. I read somewhere that if Ahmadinejad did not exist, then Israel would have had to invent him. Yes, here is the quote, it was from Uri Avnery in April 2009.
I am not saying that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is an agent of the Mossad.
Absolutely not. I don’t want to be sued for libel.

I am only saying that were he an agent of the Mossad, he would not behave any differently.

And also: If he did not exist, the Mossad would have had to invent him.
Either way, the assistance he is giving to the government of Israel is invaluable.
What we have seen over the past several months is a continued push by Israel towards Iran. Constant threats, practice runs, massive war games played, huge fear mongering by the Israelis. The closer to the election the greater the push, the greater the war games.

December 2008
Israel 'prepared to attack' Iran nuclear plants

Israel is drawing up plans to attack Iran's nuclear facilities and is prepared to launch a strike without backing from the US, it has been reported.
April 2009 the Mother of All:
Israeli army to train for impending war

Israel is set to mobilize its army and hold the largest military exercise in its history to psych up the public for the breaking out of war.

The head of Israel's Department for Population at the Home Front Command Colonel Hilik Sofer said the extensive exercise would be conducted in less than two months on June 2. (Note the date?)

The senior Israeli official went on to acknowledge that in the event of a war Israel would have insufficient emergency and rescue response units ready.

"In wartime there will be insufficient Magen David Adom, rescue and chemical and biological warfare units. Even if we call up the reserves of the Home Front Command, we will have to rely on the population itself," Sofer told Haaretz.

"We need to train for a reality in which during war missiles can fall on any part of the country without warning," he said.

One of the missions of the nationwide military drill is to convince the public that in the event of a war the entire country would "become a front without warning".

Sofer said by holding the weeklong military exercise Israel seeks to "transform the population from a passive to an active one... We want the citizens to understand that war can happen tomorrow morning."

However, according to the Israeli official, the Home Front Command does not seek to scare anyone beyond a "healthy sense of fear". (What they really mean is a "Healthy Sense of Paranoia")

The official further stressed the need for Israeli residents to rely on themselves, explaining that the army would not be responsible for the evacuation of people even in areas most liable to be targeted.
Now, this article above is exceptional, not only do they go after Iran with more threats of a huge impending "war game", but at the same time, they create a massive panic, paranoia and fear among their own people. Just look at the ”implied” horrible threats to Jewish people, like those in the above article, then ask yourself just what is this meant to accomplish? Who benefits from this “fear mongering” Will the Israeli people be any safer being told this hogwash? No, what they are aiming for is to firstly keep Iran paranoid so they elect Ahmadinejad again, and at the same time create massive amounts of panic and fear so that they can then use this public fear to attack Iran and anyone else the Zionist Entity does not like. Normally I don’t feel too sorry for Jews who choose to live inside the Zionist Entity, but think for one moment what life must be like when your own government continually keeps you in a blind state of panic and fear. Oh, never mind, George Bush did that to Americans. The difference is Americans woke up, Israelis have not.May 2009, one month from Iranian election:
Israel grits teeth as 'doom day' draws near

As the Israeli-predicted date for war on Iran draws closer, a report says Israeli's missile operators have begun weekly drills to hone their skills.

Israeli Air Force (IAF) reservists who operate the ballistic missile destroyer, the Arrow, and the surface-to-air missile, Patriot, have been called up by the Defense Ministry to spend one day a week on duty to prepare for a possible conflict with Iran.
May 21st 2009, not long now till the election.
Israeli war games simulated strike by Iran
Thu, 21 May 2009 21:12:00 GMT

Israel has held a large-scale military exercise to simulate wars launched by Iran and Syria in order to assess its capabilities against the two Muslim nations
This next one is quite clever indeed, but as always, there are gaping holes in the logic, see if you can spot the “hole”
As Tel Aviv keeps on threatening Tehran with a 'military option', a report says Israel will open an embassy near the Iranian border in neighboring Turkmenistan.

Citing high-ranking officials in the Israeli Foreign Ministry, IzRus reported Monday that Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman has personally struck a deal with Turkmen officials.

According to the report, an Israeli delegation is on its way to Ashgabat, Turkmenistan's capital, to find a 'suitable building' for an Israeli embassy. source
Here’s the “gaping Hole” in the logic. Now, given Israel claims it is so afraid of Iran attacking it's citizens, why then would they want to put their own people right next to the Iranian border, if not to provoke Iran. It’s not like there is a booming need for an embassy in Turkmenistan with thousands of eager Israeli tourists shouting for an embassy on the Iranian border. This is transparent. It's done to create more fear in Iranians wondering what Israel is up to, next to it's border.

So, ask yourself why the largest Israeli military war games to date were announced way back in April 2009, to commence on June 2nd 2009 a full three months later. I’ll tell you why, because they wanted to create three months of impending fear in Iran, to culminate just before Iran’s election, that’s why!

So today Israel is praying hard that their Poster Boy Ahmadinejad is re-elected. They’ve done all they can do now to stack the deck, short of an actual attack, that is. If Iranians re-elect Ahmadinejad the Israelis know it will be that much harder for Obama to push his middle east peace plan with a hardliner as opposed to Iran’s own “Obama” you can read about him here and here.

If, Ahmadinejad is not re-elected, the jig is up for Israel, it’s a game changer and they know it. So, let the rest of the world pray as well, let us pray that the Iranians see through Israel’s deadly game plan. I think they are smart and already see though this evil Israeli plan.

Tomorrow’s the day Israel may finally loose the battle to control the entire middle east. Tomorrow is the day that may spell the end of the Zionists entity’s power in the region. If Iran elects Mousavi it’s over for Israel, there will be a beginning of a new world alliance where Israel no longer can act with impunity.

Tomorrow.....................
