[Care2 News Network - Newly Submitted] James Petras - From Gaza to Tehran: Israel Asserting Middle ...: A subsequent article in the pro-Israel New York Times (January 11, 2009) by David Sanger, a prominent Zionist sympathizer, reported that "President Bush deflected a secret request by Israel last year (2008) for specialized bunker-busting bombs it wanted for an attack on Iran's main nuclear complex…the Bush administration was particularly alarmed by an Israeli request to fly over Iraq to reach Iran's major nuclear complex…The White House denied that request outright." Sanger goes on to claim that the Israelis were furious at a detailed report by 16 US intelligence agencies (The National Intelligence Estimate) which demonstrated that Iran had halted development of a nuclear warhead in 2003 because it undermined Israeli efforts to secure US collaborations for a military attack on Iran. Sanger spends several paragraphs trying to bolster the Israeli unsubstantiated claims regarding Iran's nuclear program framing the case for a unilateral Israeli attack…which he dates began "early 2008" but was stalled by opposition from the US military.

[If the First Amendment fails, use the Second one] Israel Asserting Middle East Supremacy: From Gaza to Tehran - by ...: A recently reported wrinkle in Dennis Ross’ appointment to the Obama Cabinet is his role as current Chairman of the Jerusalem-based Jewish People Policy Planning Institute, under the Jewish Agency, which is an official part of the Israeli Government. His current work for an Israeli government agency could place Ross at odds with the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA), a Federal statute that requires individuals working on behalf of a foreign government to register as such - something Ross has never done.

[Israpundit] Israpundit » Blog Archive » How To Talk To A Mullah (Not): While Iran is not actively at war, it has suffered severe setbacks on several fronts: Iraq (where its proxy al Qaeda was defeated), Gaza (where its proxy Hamas was defeated), and even Lebanon (where its proxy Hezbollah failed to do anything while Israel was drubbing Hamas). Back in the mid-80s, Iran was willing to stop calling for the destruction of America for a few months, and put a stop to the killing of Americans by Iranian proxies.

[Therearenosunglasses's Weblog] Israel Asserting Middle East Supremacy: From Gaza to Tehran ...: Obama appointed Ross to the post of ”˜Special Envoy to Iran’.  He will act as Czar of Middle East policy.  George Mitchell is his envoy on Israel-Palestine negotiations, a typical ”˜good cop’ (Mitchell) strategy to counter the ”˜bad cop’ (Ross).  Ross, who is often called ”˜Israel’s Lawyer’, is the ultimate Zionist, a crown prince of the US Zionist Jewish Lobby in all of its major undertakings regarding Iran.  Ross is a founding leader of AIPAC, the principle and most powerful Israel First Lobby in Washington.  He has been a lifelong and influential ZionCon ideologue, who successfully led the campaign in favor of the invasion of Iraq.  He is among the most prolific and influential writers and propagandists at the Zionist-financed propaganda mill, WINEP (Washington Institute for Near East Policy), which has produced the most bellicose position papers pushing US military intervention in favor of Israel’s expansionist ambitions.  During the Clinton years, Ross was appointed head of the US ”˜mediation’ committee during the Israeli-Palestinian negotiations (1999-2000).  In that position, he acted as ”˜Israel’s lawyer’ according to a fellow US Zionist diplomat.  He scuttled all possibility of any acceptable compromise by “following Israel’s lead.”  He set up the conditions, which made Palestinian rejection inevitable while placing the blame on that embittered people.   Ross has a profound influence on Obama’s politics to Israel.

The Defense Department has assumed "unilateral responsibility for the protection of the oil trade in the Persian Gulf, and yet it's assuming responsibility for the delivery of aviation fuel for the Israeli military,"
