BREAKING! H.R. 83 WIELDS BIG BLOW TO PALESTINE – Dangerous Foreign Policy!

  • “What we learned through this disgraceful ‘CRomnibus’ episode is that House Republicans will seize every opportunity to legislate special favors for Wall Street, mega-rich campaign contributors, and big polluters. American taxpayers are once again exposed to potential bailouts of Wall Street banks who can now resume risky derivative trading with other peoples’ money, backed by FDIC insurance when the next financial bubble bursts. Mega-donors can now write obscenely large checks to political parties, further expanding their outsized political influence…” – Congressman Jared Huffman, while supporting Israel 100%

Keep the following statistics in mind while reading about the billions of dollars that the U.S. is handing over to the terrorist state of Israel to kill kids and steal land.

“Israel’s unemployment rate has dropped to a record low in February 2014, down to 4.9% compared to 5.4% in January for people aged 25-64. According to a seasonally adjusted study released by the Central Bureau of Statistics (CBS) last week, over 3.5 million people out of 8.1 million people are employed in Israel.

Gaza In Ruins, Israel’s Ban on Dignity, More Illegal Settlements & Decades to Rebuild


(“These people are filled with ideas that this is the Promised Land and their duty is to help the Jews,” said Izdat Said Qadoos of the neighboring Palestinian village. “It is not the Promised Land. It is our land.”

HaYovel is one of many groups in the United States using tax-exempt donations to help Jews establish permanence in the Israeli-occupied territories — effectively obstructing the creation of a Palestinian state, widely seen as a necessary condition for Middle East peace.

The result is a surprising juxtaposition: As the American government seeks to end the four-decade Jewish settlement enterprise and foster a Palestinian state in the West Bank, the American Treasury helps sustain the settlements through tax breaks on donations to support them.

A New York Times examination of public records in the United States and Israel identified at least 40 American groups that have collected more than $200 million in tax-deductible gifts for Jewish settlement in the West Bank and East Jerusalem over the last decade. The money goes mostly to schools, synagogues, recreation centers and the like, legitimate expenditures under the tax law. But it has also paid for more legally questionable commodities: housing as well as guard dogs, bulletproof vests, rifle scopes and vehicles to secure outposts deep in occupied areas.) http://www.nytimes.com/2010/07/06/world/middleeast/06settle.html?pagewanted=all&_r=0

And let us not forget the courageous American Peace Activist Rachel Corrie who was murdered by the Israelis and run over by a bulldozer while attempting to protect a Palestinian doctor’s home from demolition.

  • In addition, it appears the U.S. is using its leverage (millions of dollars in potential funding) with the IAEA (International Atomic Energy Agency) to benefit Israel who has not signed the NPT and is purported to be hiding between 200 – 400 nuclear weapons in a continuing nuclear program. The U.S. will give NO MONEY to the agency unless Israel is guaranteed their “right” to participate in the agency even though they don’t play by the rules.
Provided 
further, That funds appropriated under this heading may be made 
available for the IAEA unless the Secretary of State determines that 
Israel is being denied its right to participate in the activities of 
that Agency:

 

“A resolution calling for nuclear inspections in Israel has been defeated by 13 votes at the International Atomic Energy Agency.

Thursday’s vote saw 45 member states, including Turkey, Russia, China and Iran, back the proposal from 18 Arab countries.

The US, Britain, France and Germany were among the 58 members to vote against the measure at the agency’s General Assembly in Vienna while 27 countries abstained.

The proposal called for the opening of Israel’s nuclear facilities to IAEA inspection and Israel signing the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

The Kuwaiti ambassador to Vienna, Sadiq M. Marafi, claimed those countries backing Israel had violated international law.

He said: “Arab states will decide to continue efforts on nuclear inspection over Israel.”

The same proposal has been previously rejected three times in the past five years.

Israel refuses to sign the non-proliferation treaty despite calls from the UN and the IAEA for it to do so. It has never confirmed or denied owning nuclear weapons but is widely believed to possess them…”

“…Despite the fact that the Israel’s nuclear programme has been an open secret since a disgruntled technician, Mordechai Vanunu, blew the whistle on it in 1986, the official Israeli position is still never to confirm or deny its existence.

When the former speaker of the Knesset, Avraham Burg, broke the taboo last month, declaring Israeli possession of both nuclear and chemical weapons and describing the official non-disclosure policy as “outdated and childish” a rightwing group formally called for a police investigation for treason.

Meanwhile, western governments have played along with the policy of “opacity” by avoiding all mention of the issue. In 2009, when a veteran Washington reporter, Helen Thomas, asked Barack Obama in the first month of his presidency if he knew of any country in the Middle East with nuclear weapons, he dodged the trapdoor by saying only that he did not wish to “speculate”.

UK governments have generally followed suit. Asked in the House of Lords in November about Israeli nuclear weapons, Baroness Warsi answered tangentially. “Israel has not declared a nuclear weapons programme. We have regular discussions with the government of Israel on a range of nuclear-related issues,” the minister said. “The government of Israel is in no doubt as to our views. We encourage Israel to become a state party to the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty [NPT].”

But through the cracks in this stone wall, more and more details continue to emerge of how Israel built its nuclear weapons from smuggled parts and pilfered technology.

The tale serves as a historical counterpoint to today’s drawn-out struggle over Iran’s nuclear ambitions. The parallels are not exact – Israel, unlike Iran, never signed up to the 1968 NPT so could not violate it. But it almost certainly broke a treaty banning nuclear tests, as well as countless national and international laws restricting the traffic in nuclear materials and technology.

The list of nations that secretly sold Israel the material and expertise to make nuclear warheads, or who turned a blind eye to its theft, include today’s staunchest campaigners against proliferation: the US, France, Germany, Britain and even Norway…” http://www.theguardian.com/world/2014/jan/15/truth-israels-secret-nuclear-arsenal

If Israel can ignore the IAEA, why should anyone else listen?

Media reports on Monday suggested that this week’s annual conference of the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) will include a serious discussion of Israel’s presumed nuclear capabilities. One can only hope that this takes place, that the long-running grievances of Arab and other countries are finally given their just due. With accusations relating to weapons of mass destruction having been a large part of the US pretext for invading Iraq and Iran now facing heavy pressure over similar claims, the double standard involving the Jewish state ­ which has steadfastly refused to sign the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) ­ has become too obvious to ignore any longer.

None of this has deterred the Israelis, though, from speaking out against the alleged ambitions of others. In fact, Israel has been at the forefront of countries demanding that the IAEA get tough with Iran. The Israelis are not at all embarrassed that Tehran is a signatory to the NPT and they are not; nor does it bother them that no one thinks the Islamic Republic has nuclear weapons, while the Jewish state is estimated by experts to possess something in the order of 200-300 warheads, not to mention a variety of air-, land- and sea-based delivery systems.

The unbridled hypocrisy of Israeli policy and rhetoric on this issue constitutes a major test for the IAEA, and indeed for two cornerstones of modern diplomacy: arms control and collective security. If the presumed violations of some countries are to be “punished” pre-emptively while those of others go unchecked, there is little point in cooperating with the co-opted organization that enforces its own regulations according to Washington’s whim. Israeli impunity relies on America for its sustenance, and the nuclear question is a case in point: US law is very clear in banning foreign aid to countries that either do not sign or fail to obey the NPT, but somehow more than $3 billion in illegal funds gets from Washington to Israel every year with nary a word of protest on Capitol Hill.

If America is unwilling to comply with its own laws when these do not suit Israel’s purposes, why should anyone trust it to undertake an accurate accounting of international security arrangements? And if the IAEA is unwilling to assert its independence in the face of pressure from Washington, why should any of its members bother to help maintain the pretense that signed agreements mean anything at all?

        (1) the Arab League boycott of Israel, and the secondary

    investment and trade in the Middle East and North Africa;
        (2) the Arab League boycott, which was regrettably reinstated 
    in 1997, should be immediately and publicly terminated, and the

        (3) all Arab League states should normalize relations with 
    their neighbor Israel;
        (4) the President and the Secretary of State should continue to

    taking into consideration the participation of any recipient 
    country in the boycott when determining to sell weapons to said 
    country; and
        (5) the President should report to Congress annually on 
    specific steps being taken by the United States to encourage Arab 
    League states to normalize their relations with Israel to bring 
    about the termination of the Arab League boycott of Israel, 
    including those to encourage allies and trading partners of the

            (ii) Not less than 90 days after the President is unable to 
        make the certification and report pursuant to subparagraph 
        (B)(i), the President may waive section 1003 of Public Law 100-
        204 if the President determines and certifies in writing to the 
        Speaker of the House of Representatives, the President pro 
        tempore of the Senate, and the Committees on Appropriations 
        that the Palestinians have entered into direct and meaningful

    terrorism by individuals who are imprisoned after being fairly 
    tried and convicted for acts of terrorism and by individuals who 
    died committing acts of terrorism during the previous calendar 
    year:  Provided, That the Secretary shall report to the Committees 
    on Appropriations on the amount reduced for fiscal year 2015 prior
