Iran's Words Mistranslated Again by Americans Trying to Start a War

Submitted by George Washington on 08/17/2012 15:18 -0400

Most Americans confuse zionism and Judaism.

While many assume that zionism simply means allowing the Israeli nation to exist, many zionists in high positions within the Netanyahu and Sharon administrations advocate for very different policies altogether, including the use of offensive wars throughout the  Middle East.  See this, and read the section entitled "Securing the Realm" here.

In reality, many devout Jews are against zionism as being antithetical to traditional Jewish values.  As such, many Jews say that criticizing zionism is not anti-semitism. ... and some zionists themselves admit that even non-Jews have the right to criticize Israel.

Zionists can be also be Christian. Indeed, millions of fundamentalist Christians – including many in the American military -  want to start WWIII to speed the "second coming" of Jesus Christ.

As such, the common practice of American politicians and media of interchanging Iran's words about the "zionist regime" with the word "Israel"  is disingenuous.  For example, AP reported today:
QuoteIsrael's existence is an "insult to all humanity," Iran's president said Friday ...."The existence of the Zionist regime is an insult to all humanity," Ahmadinejad said.
Criticizing a particular "regime" in Israel is akin to criticizing the "Bush administration" or the "Obama administration".  For example, saying that Bush should have been impeached is not calling for the American government to be overthrown.

Similarly, the AP story repeated the old canard:

    Tensions between Iran and Israel have intensified since 2005, when Ahmadinejad said in a speech that Israel will one day be "wiped off the map."

In reality:

    As a New York Times translation notes, Ahmadinejad wasn't referring to Israel at all, but to the "regime" – i.e. the current political administration – in Israel.

     

    Moreover, it was not Ahmadinejad himself speaking. He was quoting Ayatollah Khomeini, who died in 1989 (and who looked exactly like Sean Connery's long-lost twin).

People can debate whether zionism is helpful or counter-productive, or which form of zionism is best.  But interchanging zionism and Israel without explanation is misleading.

And anti-semitism is wholly unacceptable, as is prosecution of Christians, Muslims or anyone else for their religion or race.

But whatever Iran's faults, the fact is that:

    The U.S. overthrew the democratically-elected leader of Iran 60 years ago

    The U.S. has been looking for an excuse to bomb Iran again for many decades

    The U.S. funds terrorist groups within Iran

    Iran protects Jews, and it's constitution officially recognizes their rights (scroll to bottom; on the other hand, our close ally Saudi Arabia is virulently anti-semitic, and is the main backer of terrorism in the Middle East and abroad)

    The American media is always pro-war, and happily trumpets disinformation about supposed enemies to drum up support for new wars

After the Revolution of 1905, the Czar had prudently prepared for further outbreaks by transferring some $400 million in cash to the New York banks, Chase, National City, Guaranty Trust, J.P.Morgan Co., and Hanover Trust. In 1914, these same banks bought the controlling number of shares in the newly organized Federal Reserve Bank of New York, paying for the stock with the Czar\'s sequestered funds. In November 1917,  Red Guards drove a truck to the Imperial Bank and removed the Romanoff gold and jewels. The gold was later shipped directly to Kuhn, Loeb Co. in New York.-- Curse of Canaan

Funny you mentioned it CSR, last night on Twitter, a certain warmonger called James G Rickards, author of Currency Wars made the following tweet in my time line

QuoteJim Rickards ‏@JamesGRickards

#Iran calls #Israel "an insult to humankind" & wants to "wipe out" its govt http://nyti.ms/P4hEeB . Israel takes at face value. #WordsMatter  

Needless to say that the Ogster clashed yet again with Mr Warmonger Israeli 1st-er
QuoteThe Ogster ‏@Ognir2

@JamesGRickards Why do you keep missing it, every time he says it, the state he's talking about is the ZIONIST state

Of course he then tried to use the TRICK of anti semitism and nazis
Several of my buddies and some new people joined and ripped Rickards a new asshole.

One thing for Rickards on Tweeter, I've clashed with him several times and he not banned me unlike Gerald shill Celente, 1 tweet to him about tough shit for him investing in MF Global or that other coward Max Keiser, who insisted that Bernanke is Protestant, got Lindsey, Joe & Myself banned from his shite-line
Most zionists don't believe that God exists, but they do believe he promised them Palestine
