June ), 2006
According to Megan Gillis,
writing for the Ottawa Sun, the Straussian neocon "Prince of Darkness,"
Richard Perle, is in Ottawa, possibly to attend the Bilderberg Group
meeting held there, along with the standard fare of neolibs and
globalists, including "David Rockefeller, Henry Kissinger, Queen
Beatrix of Holland, former N.B. premier Frank McKenna and a host of
other bigwigs," as Gillis puts it. As Perle is a prime shaker and mover
behind the "clash of civilizations" agenda to "reshape" the Muslim
Middle East (that is to say, shock and awe it, by way of bunker-buster
and depleted uranium, into submission), it makes perfect sense for him
to be on the Bilderberger roster, especially now that Iran is next up
on the target list.
It appears the globalists are at odds on
Iran. "I think of war with Iran as the ending of America’s present role
in the world. Iraq may have been a preview of that, but it’s still
redeemable if we get out fast. In a war with Iran, we’ll get dragged
down for 20 or 30 years. The world will condemn us. We will lose our
position in the world," Zbigniew Brzezinski told Vanity Fair earlier
this year. I don’t know if Ziggy will attend the Bilderberg meeting,
but chances are the Soros side of the neolib order will attempt to
convince the neocons, and thus their sock puppet Bush, to not unleash
the Pentagon’s fury against the Islamic nation, not that the
traditional neolibs have any love for Iran or its people, but rather
they likely believe Brzezinski is correct.
However, now that
the Straussian neocons control the levers over at the Pentagon, with
their man Rumsfeld at the top of the organizational pyramid, chances
are Iran will be lined up in the cross hairs, and before the coming
mid-term election. "Because of his chronic unpopularity, Bush is
already in a complicated political predicament," writes Dr. Michael Carmichael,
a public affairs consultant and broadcaster. "Bush is facing the loss
of his American political hegemony in the midterm elections this
November. If Bush loses even one house of Congress, he will face the
immediate threat of official probes led by partisan special prosecutors
and a rising demand for his impeachment. In his game of poker with
Ahmadinejad, Bush has nothing to lose by upping the ante and wrapping
himself in the American flag while dropping a massive bombardment onto
the primary vortex of his Axis of Evil, Iran."
Of course,
official probes and impeachment are, at this point, little more than
wishful thinking, as few Democrats have the guts to take down Bush.
Nothing short of a clean sweep of the corporate and globalist
whorehouse on the Potomac will squash the neocon agenda, now moving
along at a steady clip. However, if the Democrats do indeed win come
November—and this is less than assured, as the neocons are now seasoned
at throwing elections—they may pitch a few speed bumps and slow down
the rush to shock and awe Iran into submission, and thus, as Carmichael
notes, the neocons may push hard for an attack before the election.
"Questioned
by a largely supportive audience of admiring students willing to attend
a late lecture on a Friday night [at the at the Oxford Union earlier
this week], Perle touched upon the diplomacy between the West and Iran
in the most insipid terms he could muster," Carmichael writes. "Taking
into account the latest diplomatic developments, he gave his Oxford
audience the impression that the outcome remains obscure in spite of
the fact that he is one of the principle architects—and the sternest—of
the Iran negotiations." Of course, as we know, there is nothing
"obscure" about the path the neocons are traveling—they intend to
sabotage all negotiations, as they did previously in regard to Iraq,
and put the "military option on the table." In fact, as Carmichael
notes, citing former CIA analyst Ray McGovern’s comments on Alex Jones’
radio program, there "is already one carrier task force there in the
Gulf, two are steaming toward it at the last report I have at
least—they will all be there in another week or so. The propaganda has
been laid, the aircraft carriers are in place, it doesn’t take much to
fly the bombers out of British and US bases—cruise missiles are at the
ready, Israel is egging us on" (see Former CIA Analyst Says Iran Strike Set For June Or July, by Paul Joseph Watson).
"McGovern’s
predictions may be unfolding already," Carmichael continues. "The
London police raid that coincided with Perle’s visit to Britain netted
two men suspected of terrorist plotting to build a massive chemical
bomb. But, after four days of excruciating forensic examination of
their premises, the police found no evidence of bomb-building
activities. Whether this ’swoop’ was staged or not remains to be seen,
but this episode resonates with an official campaign to ratchet up the
public concern about terrorism. The non-productive raid has produced a
predictable backlash among the local residents who are demanding some
form of official confirmation that the raid was based on credible
evidence rather than a melange of Islamophobic paranoia." In addition,
it appears the Canadians are onboard with the neocon brand of
"Islamophobic paranoia" (or rather calculated fear-mongering), as a
ludicrous terrorist plot, an obvious set-up by the RCMP, demonstrates.
All it will take now is for a sincere terrorist attack of the sort
unrolled last summer in London to get the ball rolling and the bombing
sorties unleashed from flat-top decks.
"Exactly as Richard
Perle intimated to the BBC, the world is witnessing the machinations in
a game of geopolitical poker. The stakes are high. In spite of his
perceived weakness, George Bush holds a very strong hand, The White
House, the Pentagon, the Supreme Court and both houses of Congress. Yet
his political weakness with the American public is the primary factor
motivating him to launch a pre-emptive attack against Iran. With his
approval rating falling into the low 30s, Bush has too little—if
anything—to lose to worry about current public opinion."
Dare
I say Bush and the neocons don’t give a whit about the American public?
As even a superficial examination of the Straussian neocon ideology
reveals, the neocons have nothing but contempt for the American people,
who they consider clueless peons, little more than expendable pawns in
their global game of domination, beginning in the Middle East. As I
have noted here repeatedly, the neocons believe the American people are
soft, decadent, squeamish, don’t have the "stomach" for global
conquest, and must be forced, through increasingly brutal and gruesome
acts of false flag terrorism, to do their murderous bidding.
"McGovern
entertained the notion that western governments and intelligence
hierarchies could potentially stage terror attacks in Europe and the US
either before or after an invasion of Iran," writes Watson. "That’s
altogether possible," McGovern responded. "I would say even probable
because they need some proximate cause, some casus belli to justify
really unleashing things on Iran….I would put very little past this
crew - their record of dissembling and disingenuousness is
unparalleled…. I would say even probable because they need some
proximate cause, some casus belli to justify really unleashing things
on Iran….I would put very little past this crew - their record of
dissembling and disingenuousness is unparalleled…. I think we all agree
that an attack is likely before the election and we all agree that it
has to do largely with the election—as for timing I see a likelihood
that it could come as early as late June or early July, most of my
colleagues predict August, September, maybe an October surprise even."
Perle’s
appearance a the Bilderberg meeting is another indicator something is
up. Is Perle in attendance to sell the shock and awe campaign to the
neoliberal wing of the globalists, who usually prefer "color
revolutions" à la Soros? Or did Rockefeller and Kissinger call Perle,
as the neocon ambassador, on the carpet to give him a dressing down and
issue a possible warning? In fact, there is no way to know precisely.
However,
one thing is for certain—left to their own criminal devices, the
neocons will eventually attack Iran, as they effectively control the
biggest and baddest military juggernaut history has ever witnessed.
Finally,
Dr. Michael Carmichael comments on the probable outcome: "…if Bush were
to attack Iran, he would instantaneously transform Ahmadinejad into the
most powerful figure in the increasingly Anti-American world. With that
transfiguration, Ahmadinejad would have nothing to constrain him from
launching attacks not only against American targets as Ray McGovern
suggests, but the Iranian Prime Minister would be free to join forces
with Hizbollah and Islamic Jihad in an attack against America’s primary
ally in the region, Israel. Bristling with potential targets from its
vulnerable nuclear facility at Dimona as well as its major population
centers including Tel Aviv, Haifa and Elat, Israel would be in the
frontline of any potential counter-attack by Ahmadinejad."
Faced with such a dire prospect, no doubt Israel will start lobbing around nukes.
