NOVANEWS WITH CONGRESS FOISTING socialized medicine on unwilling Americans, the leading figure behind health care reform is the Zionist billionaire George Soros joined by Zionist medical, political, and academic professionals. With his endless purse of money—gotten by sinking the US economy in 2008 and at the same time making billions doing it—to back whatever cause he chooses, Soros has the means to engineer the destinies of entire nations. Indeed, Soros has already implemented his global agenda in both Georgia and Kosovo. Known as Obama’s “money man,” Soros’ involvement with Obama’s political career began in 2005 with Soros heavily contributing to Obama’s Senatorial campaign and continued through Obama’s 2007 Presidential launch with huge fundraising operations. Soros has also been pouri...

NOVANEWS Pressure on Israel from America? What pressure? Here's Ha'aretz: As Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was in Washington this week absorbing the full wrath of the Obama administration, the Pentagon and Israel's defense establishment were in the process of sealing a large arms deal. According to the deal, Israel will purchase three new Hercules C-130J airplanes. The deal for the three aircrafts, designed by Lockheed Martin, is worth roughly a quarter billion dollars. Each aircraft costs $70 million. The aircrafts were manufactured specifically for Israeli needs..... What does that mean, they only kill Arabs?

NOVANEWS Ehud Yaari Ehud Yaari answers questions about U.S.-Israeli relations and the Middle East peace process. EHUD YAARI is Lafer International Fellow at the Washington Institute for Near East Policy and Middle East Commentator for Channel 2 news in Israel. He is the author, with the late Ze'ev Schiff, of Israel's Lebanon War and Intifada: The Palestinian Uprising -- Israel's Third Front.

NOVANEWS by James Buchanan The Republicans have been staying within their carefully constructed political playpen –the one which keeps them from going after issues, which unnamed censors tell us are “off limits” for polite politics. Well, we just got our medical industry socialized while the Republicans were being nice and polite. Vicious unethical criminals in the Democrat Party just passed what-should-have-been a Constitutional Amendment that requires a two-thirds vote, with a bare majority. There’s a way to derail Obama and his legislation before the 2010 election, but it involves showing some guts and not letting the liberal media dictate to you what’s “off limits”. The nuclear counter-strike that can kill off Obamacare is a no-holds-barred attack on Obama’s citizenship. Contrary to po...

NOVANEWS Al Jazeera’s Inside Story program recently hosted Ali Abunimah, John Mearsheimer, and Meagan Buren of the Israel Project. As usual, Abunimah spoke clearly without euphemism. For instance: “Because of the intransigence of the lobby, there will be no two-state solution and that really means the end of a Jewish state of Israel.” To her credit, Buren bravely resisted the rhetorical onslaught, retaining her composure long enough to regurgitate AIPAC’s (and Clinton’s, and Schumer’s) talking points: “trust measures… ten-month moratorium… peace… come to the table… Palestinian partner… prosperous future for both sides…etc.” The real star of the show however, was Mearsheimer. One of the frustrating features of the conversation on Palestine/Israel is that many sober minded analysts hedge the...

NOVANEWS One of the great surprises of my recent visit to Israel and Palestine was the morning I stood on a hillside south of Gilo in the Palestinian village of Wallajeh and gazed over at the settlement with its fancy red tile roofs. We were in a rural area 10 or 15 minutes south of Jerusalem. Palestinians were being forced off their land to make way for more settlers. And this was East Jerusalem??? But Jeffrey Goldberg had lately written, "Everyone knows" that Gilo is part of Jerusalem and will be an Israeli neighborhood after the two state solution comes into being (in his grandchild’s lifetime). Standing there, I realized that this was pure Israeli propaganda to justify an ongoing landgrab. And the same holds for the rural suburb of Ramat Shlomo, where Netanyahu has announced more settl...

NOVANEWS Dear Friends, Please distribute Ralph Nader’s piece below as widely as possible. It’s time to get Americans thinking, and this piece is likely to hit home. by Ralph Nader On July 10, 1996, at a Joint Session of the United States Congress, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu received a standing ovation for these words: “With America’s help, Israel has grown to be a powerful, modern state. …But I believe there can be no greater tribute to America’s long-standing economic aid to Israel than for us to be able to say: we are going to achieve economic independence. We are going to do it. In the next four years, we will begin the long-term process of gradually reducing the level of your generous economic assistance to Israel.” Since 1996, the American taxpayers are still sending I...

NOVANEWS Glenn Greenwald shows just how much of a weasel Paul Krugman is in his Christiane Amanpour defense by going after Amanpour’s attacker, Tom Shales, hammer and tongs for Shales’s pro-Israel agenda. Greenwald points out that what seems to bother Shales most of all is Christiane Amanpour’s Iranian background. Then he goes down the list: Wolf Blitzer is Jewish, a former AIPAC official, and — to use Shales’ smear-campaign formulation — has frequently "been accused" of pro-Israel bias; should CNN bar him from covering those issues? David Gregory is Jewish, "studies Jewish texts with a top Jewish educator in Washington," and has conducted extremely sycophantic interviews with Israel officials. Should his background be cited as evidence of his pro-Israel bias? The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Gold...

NOVANEWS Before we go any further, no. AIPAC doesn't rule America. Nor does AIPAC determine US foreign policy. Capital rules the US, the world, and hence also US policy towards the world, which is all about extraction and domination, and is hostile, not just to the Palestinian people, but to people in general, everywhere and anywhere, but especially if they fail to meet the appropriate standards of docility. Capital hates all people, but it also welcomes people hating each other: it color codes people so that different people can be consumed differently, and some can be the slaves of others. AIPAC, however, is part of the way capital rules the world, and the fact that it doesn't rule the world by itself is not a get-out-of-jail card. AIPAC is a criminal organization. That the people of the...
