The United States of America is supposed to be a democratic republic. Under its Constitution, the Congress decides whether to go to war, and the President serves as commander-in-chief.
Today, with nearly 1,000 military bases around the world, the USA looks more like an empire than a republic. But who is the emperor? Is the USA ruled by an “imperial presidency”? Or is the real emperor of America enthroned in Tel Aviv?
A bill introduced in the US Senate by Chuck Schumer (D-NY), entitled the “Nuclear Weapon Free Iran Act of 2013,” formally turns over American war powers to the State of Israel and its Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu. According to a leading American Iran expert, Columbia University professor Gary Sick, “the bill outsources any decision about resort to military action to the government of Israel, by committing the United States in advance to support any military action by Israel.”
That effectively gives Netanyahu the war powers of both the US Congress and the US president. In effect, it makes Netanyahu emperor of the USA, empowered to lead America into any war he wants at the time and place of his choosing.
Yesterday, in an exclusive interview with Truth Jihad Radio, Gary Sick called for action against Schumer’s bill, “A very convincing case has to be made in Washington, and in the Congress, that this is a very bad idea. … Normally, I’m an analyst. I sit back and I look at issues. In this case, I think it is so important that I have been willing to get out in front and say ‘we need to do something.’”
How could the US Senate seriously be considering a bill that would give Israel the right to take America to war?!
The United States, especially in its higher echelons of power, has been thoroughly penetrated by agents of the state of Israel. In his landmark book October Surprise, Gary Sick (the top Iran expert on the National Security Council under three US presidents) discusses the vast power the Israeli spy service Mossad wields through its use of an army of “sayanim,” Jewish volunteers, throughout the world, “The availability of the sayanim, together with the ultra-professionalism and high motivation of the handful of experienced Mossad agents, meant that the Mossad, with relatively few people and a limited budget, could often match or surpass the performance of intelligence services may times its size. In many cases, money could not buy the kind of operational flexibility and cover that the Mossad enjoyed through the services of its unacknowledged brigades of willing volunteers.” (October Surprise, p. 65).
Is Senator Chuck Schumer, the descendant of Eastern European Jewish immigrants, a sayanim?
That depends how you define “getting paid.”
Sen. Schumer and most of his congressional colleagues take massive Israeli bribes euphemistically described as “campaign contributions.” So they are not really sayanim (unpaid volunteers for Israel). Schumer and most of the US Congress are, in effect, on the Israeli payroll.
Sayanim are people who do it for love. Schumer and the other traitors in Congress are doing it for money.
Schumer and his colleagues take payoffs from the likes of Las Vegas godfather Sheldon Adelson, the Republican Party’s biggest donor and the leading fundraiser for pro-Israel political action committees. Speaking at Yeshiva University in New York a little over two months ago, Adelson said the United States should drop a nuclear bomb on Iran – not to defend American interests, but in service to Israel.
Where does Israel (including its dual citizens, sayanim, and loyalists living abroad) get the money to buy the American political system? Adelson’s billions come from gambling – historically a key segment of organized crime, which has often, at its highest echelons, been dominated by Zionists. As the British newspaper The Guardian has confirmed, “of the seven oligarchs who controlled 50% of Russia’s economy during the 1990s, six were Jewish: Berezovsky, Vladimir Guzinsky, Alexander Smolensky, Mikhail Khodorkovsky, Mikhail Friedman and Valery Malkin.” These Russian criminal oligarchs, like so many in other countries, have strong links to Israel, the world’s leader per capita in human trafficking, human organ theft, and other rackets. Global organized crime is one of the key, often-unrecognized sources of Zionist money and power.
An even more important source of Zionist money-power is the international banking system. John Perkins the “economic hit man” has revealed that the biggest international banking organizations, including the World Bank, the IMF, and their constituent banks, run private intelligence services that regularly seize power over entire nations through usury, murder uncooperative heads of state in plane crashes, and strive to create the world’s first-ever truly global empire – which some have called the New World Order.
The key players in the New World Order international banking racket are disproportionately Zionist. This important fact, which nobody is allowed to notice upon pain of being called an anti-Semite, was underlined by Obama’s recent nomination of the rabid Zionist dual citizen Stanley Fischer as Vice-Chairman of the Federal Reserve.
In his article “AIPAC’s Fed Candidate Stanley Fischer on a Warpath against Iran,” Grant Smith writes, “While the doors of federal government have long swung open for Israel-lobby appointees focusing most – if not all – their energies on advancing the interests of a foreign state, any who were actually Israeli dual citizens have traditionally kept that a closely-guarded secret. Fischer’s long-term boosters, including the American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC), likely want to accustom Americans to openly dual citizens circulating between top roles in the US and Israeli governments.”
According to the US State Department website, “dual nationals owe allegiance to both the United States and the foreign country.” Why do Americans let people with declared loyalty to a foreign country overrun top positions in the US government?
The answer is that the USA today is neither a democratic republic nor a sovereign nation. As John Perkins explains, a new, global empire is arising, built by and for the international plutocrats. And that power structure has increasingly been dominated by hard-line Zionists like Stanley Fischer.
In the wake of 9/11, then-Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon boasted to his cabinet, “We Jews control America!” Sharon, like Netanyahu today, fancied himself a sort of international emperor, and believed that the Israeli lobby completely controlled the USA.
Was Sharon right?
If the US Senate passes Schumer’s “Nuclear Weapon Free Iran” bill, Ariel Sharon should come out of his coma for a few seconds to whisper “I told you so” – and then shuffle off this mortal coil to face judgment for the countless horrors he unleashed on the world.
