We should remember that the democratic party is also full of israel-firsters and that zionist organizations like the Democratic Leadership Council were prominent in foisting Clinton on America. That led to things like 56% of all government appointments made by Clinton being jews. There was nothing to object to about many of them, but others clearly demonstrated the extent to which American foreign policy has been taken over by zionists. For example, Clinton imported a rabid zionist from Australia (Martin Indyk), made him a citizen within weeks and then appointed him as special mideast envoy. It is time to put America before the israel-firsters. Which is your country of primary loyalty Georgia?

The Transparent Cabal: The Neoconservative Agenda, War in the Middle East, and the National Interest of Israel

Sniegoski’s new book demonstrates clearly how U.S. and Israeli policies and actions with respect to Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Syria, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the other Gulf states, and even most recently Georgia are all tied together in a bundle of interrelated linkages, each of which affects all the others. The right wing of Israeli politics, the neoconservatives in the U.S. who strongly support Israel, and the aging Israel lobby in the United States all have worked together, and are still doing so, to bring about more wars, regime changes, and instability, specifically the fragmentation of any Middle Eastern states that might ever conceivably threaten Israel.

You will be treated to informative and well-written chapters on the origins of the neoconservative movement, the Israeli origins of the United States’ Middle East war agenda, and neocon planning against Iran, as well as chapters entitled “World War IV” (a very important chapter), and “Democracy for the Middle East.” A particularly important chapter on “Oil and Other Arguments for the War” argues that oil was not as important a reason for the 2003 U.S. invasion of Iraq as was Israel.

This book is a veritable bible on the neocons -- and a frightening one. Anyone who thought that neocon thinking and policymaking had become passé with the political eclipse of the likes of Paul Wolfowitz, Richard Perle, and Douglas Feith will be disquieted to find that these individuals were only the tip of the iceberg and that on all issues having to do with Israel neocon thinking lives on in policymaking councils and is about to be passed on to the next administration, whether it be Democratic or Republican.
