What did Israel bomb in Syria? by Seymour M. Hersh The former U.S. senior intelligence official told me that, as he understood it, America's involvement in the Israeli raid dated back months earlier, and was linked to the Administration's planning for a possible air war against Iran. Last summer, the Defense Intelligence Agency came to believe that Syria was installing a new Russian-supplied radar-and-air-defense system that was similar to the radar complexes in Iran. Entering Syrian airspace would trigger those defenses and expose them to Israeli and American exploitation, yielding valuable information about their capabilities. Vice-President Dick Cheney supported the idea of overflights, the former senior intelligence official said, because "it would stick it to Syria and show that we're serious about Iran.".....There is evidence that the preëmptive raid on Syria was also meant as a warning about?and a model for?a preëmptive attack on Iran

The Cable-Cutter Mystery Given the context in which these cable cuts are occurring ? heightened tensions in the region, and not only with Iran ? I think it is probable that they are deliberate, and that the diversion of internet traffic for purposes of eavesdropping is clearly the intent.

Taking Stock: Combating Anti-Semitism in the OSCE Region In May 2007 the United Kingdom-based University and College Union offered two separate resolutions which would require its membership to support a Palestinian call for a boycott and endorse restrictions on collaborative research with Israeli scholars. The debate over the proposed academic boycott featured anti-Semitic demonization of Israel, such as Nazi analogies and suggestions that Israel is "a fascist state." The call for a boycott later was called off. Oh I see, so, according to the State Department, comparing Israel's policies to those of the Nazis, and the like, is now considered 'anti-Semitism'? But the policies themselves against those OTHER Semites - the Arabs - are NOT considered anti-Semitic? Okey doke. Here in the Orwellian Israeli-occupied government in America, up is down, left is right, black is white.

Tibi okays rightist MK's 'racist' bill On Monday the Knesset agreed to consider the bill put forth by MK Aryeh Eldad (National Union-National Religious Party) proposing the evacuation of the Palestinian residents of Hebron in 2008.

That's how Israel became a Jewish state in the first place - the wholesale 'evacuation' of Arabs from Palestine.
