Israeli Nuclear Nitemare. In today’s New York Post, Peter Brookes, a senior fellow in the rightwing Heritage Foundation thinktank, says that Israel is adamant that Iran not be permitted to become a nuclear power (as Israel is) and is actively considering making its own, very-long-distance air attack upon Iran. Tho Brookes thinks no Arab country would then attack Israel (and Arabs in general attack Americans wherever they can be found), he may well be wrong. Iran might then retaliate with ballistic missiles upon Israeli cities:

And while Israel has a limited missile defense system, missiles raining in on Tel Aviv, a city of 3  million, could be devastating. But Israel could threaten to respond to Iranian strikes on Israeli civilian targets with nuclear weapons.

So this is what the Zionist nitemare has come down to: a nuclear attack by Jews upon Moslems, for which the United States will be blamed — and in truth for which the U.S. Government will be responsible. All those hundreds and hundreds of thousands, even millions of dead Iranians will be our fault, because we have backed the lunacy of Zionism and turned a blind eye to Israel’s illegal nuclear proliferation. Is your conscience ready to assume that guilt?

U.S. law is supposed to forbid foreign aid to any country that creates nuclear weapons in violation of the principles of the nuclear nonproliferation treaty. Yet the U.S. Government has known for years that Israel has a nuclear-weapons program but continued to pour more than $3 billion of American taxpayer money into Israel every year without fail despite knowing full well that Israel would be willing actually to USE nuclear weapons, and the U.S. would be blamed; that U.S. citizens all around the world will become targets of violent retribution; and the entire world will denounce the United States as a mass murderer for helping Israel do this terrible thing.

There is only one way out of this mess, really just one way: the United States must announce plainly for all the world to hear, and direct its remarks most specifically and forcefully to the U.S. Zionist lobby, that if any country in the Middle East uses nuclear weapons against any other country, the United States will immediately launch a massive nuclear strike on the guilty party and wipe it off the face of the Earth, as a deterrent to any future use of nuclear weapons. And announce as well that if Zionists in the United States attempt to interfere or sabotage the U.S. counterstrike, they will be rounded up, prosecuted for high treason, and executed as co-conspirators in the mass murder committed by (the late) Israel.
+
Zionism has now become Public Enemy No. 1 to the entire world. It’s time for the United States to face that what had to happen is about to happen: that unless Israel is DISestablished and merged into a secular Palestine, with all special rights now reserved for Jews abolished, Israel will kill millions, and the United States will bear the entire blame.
