America Glutton For Punishment~Israel Happy

Mini-Madoffs Strike From Israel

Israel, which likes to call itself “American’s Best Friend” has recently been stealing off elderly Americans. No, I am not talking about Bernie Madoff “Made-Off” sadly I am talking about twelve more of “America’s Best Friends” working for Israel and based inside Israel.

Working from their vipers nest inside Israel, they managed to bilk more than…….wait for it………..$25 MILLION DOLLARS from elderly retired Americans. So one question America. How do you like your “best friend” after Madoff, these 12 scammers, AIPAC, ZOA, ADL, the AIPAC spy case, Jane Harman kerfuffle and the billions Israel gets off the American Taxpayer annually? How’s that working for ya? Story follows:

Twelve people have been indicted on charges of running an Israel-based telemarketing fraud that bilked elderly victims in the United States out of more than $25 million, authorities said.

The defendants are accused of calling victims in the United States and falsely declaring that they had won an international lottery, according to criminal indictments unsealed in U.S. District Court in Manhattan Tuesday.

Victims were told they needed to pay thousands of dollars in fees and taxes before claiming their prizes, authorities said. There was no lottery and the apparent victims never received any cash prizes, even after sending money to the defendants in Israel, officials said.

The 12 were charged with conspiracy to commit fraud through telemarketing. Several also were charged with mail fraud and wire fraud.

The callers typically were paid commissions based on the number of victims they recruited to send in money, authorities said. source

Like I said, America is a glutton for punishment where Israel is concerned. 64 Billion from Madoff and 25 Million from these scammers, not to mention the billions Israel gets off the American Taxpayer annually, wake up people.......

AIPAC Spies Maybe Set Free????????????

Thank you Jane Harman (Who SURPRISE is Jewish read it HERE) and all of Bush's Zionist Supporters and all the bought and paid for (by Israel) politicians.And what about Nancy Pelosi's ties to AIPAC and Harmon? AIPAC spies my be let off, unbelievable. If you think they only went after Jane Harman for help, guess again!! They would have contacted every single one of their "owned" congressmen and senators, so I would not be surprised if many others have "involved" themselves into getting these Israeli spies off the hook. This report in from Presstv, all I can say is that if the US government lets them go, then Americans should finally grasp the sad fact that Israel runs your country. They decide who gets elected, who your President picks (Freeman!!) What your foreign policy will be worldwide, if you will be allowed to make peace in the middle east, if you will allow and assist them in attacking Iran, they run groups like AIPAC who spy on your country for Israel, they procure people like Jane Harmon (and many others) to help get them off, they NOW seem to now control your judicial system as well. Are you paying attention yet? And you thought YOU Americans controlled your country? Welcome to the pipe dream that is America.

The US Justice Department is considering dropping charges of illegally disclosing national defense secrets against two former AIPAC staffers.

Steve Rosen and Keith Weissman from the American-Israeli Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) were in 2005 indicted for passing along secret US documents to Israel in violation of the 1917 Espionage Act.

Among other things, they had attempted to supply Israel with information on the US policy in Iran, according to the Israeli daily Haaretz.

Government officials on Tuesday revealed that the Justice Department is uncertain about the chances of proving the case after a number of recent rulings in favor of the suspects spawned legal complications, AFP quoted sources close to the case as saying.

The belated trial is likely to miss its June 2 date.

Rosen is looking at 20 years in prison while Weissman could be handed a 10-year sentence. The two have already managed to enforce their right to summon senior former officials to court including former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, former National Security Adviser Stephen J. Hadley, former Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz, and former Undersecretary of Defense Douglas J. Feith.

The report came after revelations about a wiretapped conversation during which California congresswoman Jane Harman had promised the powerful lobby to help nullify the accusations in exchange for aide for assuming the headship of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence.

Herman has denied having held any such conversation and denounced the eavesdropping as "abuse of power".

The case against former AIPAC staffers has raised ire among Israeli lobbies.

The American Jewish Committee and the Anti-Defamation League, two top Jewish lobby groups in the US, have been pressuring the Justice Department to reconsider its case against Rosen and Weissman.

AIPAC, considered the most powerful and connected lobbying group in Washington, has been subject to controversy in the past.

In 1992, the group's then president David Steiner was forced to resign after he was recorded boasting about his political influence in obtaining aid for Israel.

Steiner claimed to be "negotiating" with the incoming Clinton administration over who Clinton would appoint as Secretary of State and Director of the National Security Agency.

AIPAC is a "de facto agent for a foreign government", whose "success is due to its ability to reward legislators and congressional candidates who support its agenda, and to punish those who challenge it," University of Chicago professor John Mearsheimer and Stephen Walt from the Harvard University argue in their book: The Israel Lobby and U.S. Foreign Policy.

Former President Jimmy Carter has also accused AIPAC of putting enormous pressure on politicians running for office who do not share AIPAC's goals. source

Surprise~Jane Harman is Jewish

Mondoweiss breaks the silence on Jane Harman. I suggest everyone read his post, tiny teaser below

Press can't say it, but a blogger can (Jane Harman's Jewish)

The front-page story in the Times yesterday on the Jane Harman allegations didn't say that she's Jewish. Neither does CQ, which broke the story. Chris Matthews didn't say she's Jewish in his report last night--though he's always talking about the Irish Catholics--and neither did Robert Siegel on NPR. I bet Andrea Mitchell didn't either.

Jane Harman's Jewish. There, I just said it. That's why we have the blogosphere.link
