- COPY OF EMAIL JUST SENT TO NOORY AND ART BELL...

-
- George, why do you and Art Bell continue repeating the
MEMRI LIE (their intentional MIS-translation) that Iran's President vows
to "WIPE ISRAEL OFF THE MAP"?
-
- That monstrous MEMRI lie is today being used to "justify"
a NUCLEAR STRIKE on supposedly "threatening" Iran by the U.S.
and Israel - perhaps this summer, while our naive Congress is in recess!
-
- Both of you radio hosts NEVER seem to disagree with your
frequent guests like Jerome Corsi (devoted to Israel) who regularly parrot
that MEMRI lie and demonize Iran, while they also attempt to instill public
fear of global "Islamo-Facism," that ridiculous label (apparently)
invented by Muslim-hating "christian"-Zionist Rev. Hagee - or
the Israeli propagandists Hagee parrots.
-
- Thanks to your constant repetitions, millions of your
trusting Coast-To-Coast listeners probably now also believe the MEMRI lie!
-
-
- Our slavishly Israel-obedient Congress in both Parties
(with the exception of protesting Dennis Kucinich and Ron Paul) also believes
the (Israeli-concocted) MEMRI lie - and "unanimously" recently
voted to pressure the UN to put Iran's President on trial for his "genocidal
crime" of wanting "Israel wiped from the map" (see Kucinich
news release further down).
-
-
- (Keep in mind: the "frightened" little State
of Israel has around 600 nukes..the 3rd or 4th largest nuclear weapons
arsenal in the entire world. Iran has none!)
- To better inform yourselves (and your trusting Coast-to-Coast
listeners), please open and read the following articles (or, if too lazy,
at least read the few excerpts)...

- MEMRI Loss
-
-
- "MEMRI is a main arm of Israeli propaganda,"
- Professor Norman Finkelstein (son of Holocaust survivors).
-

- Excerpts only...
-
-
- As we have known for some time now, MEMRI, short for
the Middle East Media Research Institute, specializes in disinformation
by distorting translations of film and print media stories originating
in Arabic, Iranian and Turkish media. In essence, what MEMRI does is change
the context of news stories by way of mistranslation and excision. Call
it MEMRI loss, the deliberate mangling of media. MEMRI did this to Iranian
president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad by turning a speech he delivered in 2005
into a racist and genocidal screed. MEMRI accomplished this through mistranslation.
Not a day passes now we do not witness corporate media claims Ahmadinejad
wants to wipe Israel off the map. In fact, Ahmadinejad said the "regime
that is occupying Qods [Jerusalem] must be eliminated from the pages of
history." He did not say Israel must be wiped off the map. But this
engineered lie is repeated constantly by the corporate media and to such
a degree it is now accepted as fact.
-
-
- "MEMRI is a main arm of Israeli propaganda,"
explains Finkelstein. "Although widely used in the mainstream media
as a source of information on the Arab world, it is as trustworthy as Julius
Streicher's Der Sturmer was on the Jewish world." Ken Livingstone,
mayor of London, accuses MEMRI of "outright distortion," while
former CIA case officer Vince Cannistraro has written that "they (MEMRI)
are selective and act as propagandists for their political point of view,
which is the extreme-right of Likud," in other words, the people associated
with MEMRI -David Wurmser, Douglas Feith, Elliot Abrams, Richard Perle
and other neocons -are racist reactionaries, no different than the above
mentioned Julius Streicher (instead of hating Jews, the neocons hate Arabs
and Muslims).
-
-
- Finally, it appears an appreciable number of mostly clueless
Americans are stupid enough to fall victim to MEMRI's lies, as millions
of them sincerely believe Ahmadinejad wants to wipe Israel off the map.
Of course, they know nothing of MEMRI, or that it is an Israeli intelligence
operation run by Yigal Carmon, who "served" in the IOF's intelligence
branch, or that it was co-founded by one Meyrav Wurmser, wife of "Clean
Break" author David Wurmser, a dual citizen questioned by the FBI
for allegedly passing state secrets on to the American Israel Public Affairs
Committee. It should be noted that Meyrav Wurmser wrote her Ph.D. thesis
on Revisionist Zionism, the racist and murderous political philosophy behind
the Herut and Likud parties in Israel, thus demonstrating Meyrav's racism
and hatred is a generational affair.

- CONGRESS VOTES TO SEND IRAN PRESIDENT BEFORE U.N. COURT
-
-
- Office of Congressman Dennis Kucinich
- For Immediate Release
-
- Excerpts only...
-
- WASHINGTON, D.C. (June 20, 2007) - Today the House of
Representatives passed H. Con.Res.21, a resolution that pressures the United
Nations Security Council to charge Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad
with violating the 1948 Convention on Genocide and the United Nations Charter
because of his alleged calls for the destruction of Israel.
-
- Kucinich attempted to insert into the Congressional Record
two independent translations of the speech from The New York Times and
Middle East Media Research Institute, which contain significant differences
in the translations of the speech compared to the resolution before the
House. However, Members objected formally and the attempt was blocked.

media (and our gullible Congress)....
