War_is_Business_2_by_LatuffFinally, Olmert confirmed what I have mentioned over a months ago about the increase of military AID to racist Israel. But the smell of death does not stop there. US also announced that it will increase military SALES to some Arab regimes.

One ironic part in both the stories… It’s an AID to Israel, but SALES to Arab regimes. Another part is that the arms sold to Arab are anything but as advanced or of quantity and quality of arms DONATED to Israel. This explains why Israel says “No Objections” to US/Gulf arms deal… (underline the words “Israel says No Objection“, you go figure out who controls who…)

Excuse my ignorance… but is this the road of/for peace, Mr. Bush?!

Action:

US citizen are invited to contact their congress and demand they reject both the military sales to Arab regimes AND the increases in military grants to Israel (free weapons given for racist wars). Israel’s military aid is to increase from $2.4 billion to $3 billion annually for the next ten years (a total cost to US taxpayers of $30 billion in addition to other aid).

    Military-Industrial Complex Speech, Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1961
    http://coursesa.matrix.msu.edu/~hst306/documents/indust.html

    In part……..

    Until the latest of our world conflicts, the United States had no armaments industry. American makers of plowshares could, with time and as required, make swords as well. But now we can no longer risk emergency improvisation of national defense; we have been compelled to create a permanent armaments industry of vast proportions. Added to this, three and a half million men and women are directly engaged in the defense establishment. We annually spend on military security more than the net income of all United States corporations.

    This conjunction of an immense military establishment and a large arms industry is new in the American experience. The total influence — economic, political, even spiritual — is felt in every city, every State house, every office of the Federal government. We recognize the imperative need for this development. Yet we must not fail to comprehend its grave implications. Our toil, resources and livelihood are all involved; so is the very structure of our society.

    In the councils of government, we must guard against the acquisition of unwarranted influence, whether sought or unsought, by the militaryindustrial complex. The potential for the disastrous rise of misplaced power exists and will persist.

    We must never let the weight of this combination endanger our liberties or democratic processes. We should take nothing for granted. Only an alert and knowledgeable citizenry can compel the proper meshing of the huge industrial and military machinery of defense with our peaceful methods and goals, so that security and liberty may prosper together.

    Down the long lane of the history yet to be written America knows that this world of ours, ever growing smaller, must avoid becoming a community of dreadful fear and hate, and be instead, a proud confederation of mutual trust and respect.

    Such a confederation must be one of equals. The weakest must come to the conference table with the same confidence as do we, protected as we are by our moral, economic, and military strength. That table, though scarred by many past frustrations, cannot be abandoned for the certain agony of the battlefield.

    Disarmament, with mutual honor and confidence, is a continuing imperative. Together we must learn how to compose differences, not with arms, but with intellect and decent purpose. Because this need is so sharp and apparent I confess that I lay down my official responsibilities in this field with a definite sense of disappointment. As one who has witnessed the horror and the lingering sadness of war — as one who knows that another war could utterly destroy this civilization which has been so slowly and painfully built over thousands of years — I wish I could say tonight that a lasting peace is in sight.

    Forty seven years later, we see America did not listen.

    It’s amazing how they’re so spooked by Iran and Israel’s complete and utter failure in Lebanon last year that they’re going to sell stuff to KSA and that they have made this public only a day after announcing that they are “disappointed by KSA’s role in Iraq.” If U.S. foreign policy didn’t result in so many dead Arabs it would almost be comical to watch how stupid Americans are for not figuring out how retarded the government is.

    The road towards peace is littered with arms according to the profound thinking of Bush and his wealthy armament disciples.

    The arms belong to women, children, babies, men…

    War isn’t business, war is war and bisiness is business!

    What do you define as Zionist propaganda? For example, I have pleaded with the Americans not to nuke Iran. 1. The people have done nothing to deserve the death penalty. 2. There would be much radioactive fall out in the region.
    Some Americans have called me a terrorist lover for this suggestion.

    This is all about money in the US.
    It has nothing to do about security.
    Cheney’s stocks grew more than the GDP of the US.
    Big corporations are making more money to feed the rich. Everyone else can grovel at the bottom.
