- (EIRNS) - One of the "Mega" agencies that
mobilized
to quash the Fox TV pick-up of our Israeli spy scandal was JINSA, the
Jewish
Institute for National Security Affairs.
-
- JINSA President and CEO David Steinmann is also a
director
of CAMERA (Committee for Accurate Middle East Reporting in America), the
group that actually staged the e-mail, fax, letter, and phone call
mobilization
that squeezed Fox TV, to the point that they removed the transcripts of
the four Carl Cameron segments from their own web site.
-
- While CAMERA lists Tom Lantos among its advisors, along
with Sharon cabinet minister Natan Sharansky, it is JINSA that is the real
hotbed of "Mega" and "X Committee" clout, particular
inside the Pentagon.
-
- On its own website, JINSA boasts that "Only one
think tank puts the U.S.-Israel strategic relationship {first} --
JINSA!"
-
- JINSA lists among its directors: Richard Perle, Steven
Bryen (whose wife, Shoshana Bryen is still one of the few full-time JINSA
employees), Max Kampelman, Jeanne Kirkpatrick, Jack Kemp, Michael Ledeen,
Joshua Muravchik, Kenneth Timmermann, and James Woolsey.
-
- Beyond these hardcore "X Committee" operatives,
JINSA's board also includes a dozen or more retired flag grade U.S.
military
officers, including Lt. Gen. Anthony Burshnick (USAF), Gen. Crosbie Saint
(USA), Maj. Gen. Lee Downer (USAF), Adm. Leon Edney (USN), Gen. John Foss
(USA), Adm. David Jeremiah (USN), Adm. Jerome Johnson (USN), Maj. Gen.
Jarvis Lynch (USMC), Rear Adm. Sumner Shapiro (USN).
-
- JINSA makes no bones about the fact that it is recruiting
an Israeli fifth column inside the U.S. military command.
-
- They sponsor frequent all-expense-paid junkets to Israel
for retired officers, which are co-sponsored by the Israeli Defense Force;
they run an exchange program for military academy cadets at West Point,
Annapolis and the Air Force Academy with military institutes in Israel;
and they host lecture programs at all the military institutions in the
U.S. where they bring in top IDF and Israeli intelligence officials.
-
- One of the top figures on the JINSA lecture circuit is
Dore Gold, who is a top aide to Sharon and is about to come to Washington
as the Israeli ambassador.
-
- JINSA's output of policy papers and press releases also
makes clear that they are leading proponents of the "Clash of
Civilizations,"
and the drive to lure the U.S. into a suicidal military alliance with an
Israeli marcher lord state.
-
- Typical of JINSA's operations of late are their
sponsorship
of a series of lectures by Iraqi National Congress honcho Chulabi, and
their Sept. 13 press statement, calling for the U.S. to "go beyond
bin Laden" to launch military attacks against Iraq, Iran, Pakistan,
Syria, Sudan, the Palestinian Authority, Libya, Algeria, "and even
our presumed friends Saudi Arabia and Egypt."
-
- The release demanded that the U.S. bomb Beirut and
Damascus,
cut military aid to Egypt, and revoke the Presidential ban on
assassinations.
