SAUDI - IRAN TENSIONS


In 2010, Wikileaks disclosed that Saudi Arabia's King Abdullah urged the US to attack Iran, describing Iran as a snake whose head should be cut off without any procrastination.[33]

In April 2011, we read of tensions between Saudi Arabia and Iran.

According to Iran's PressTV, 'Saudi Arabia seeks to annex Kuwait'

According to a top Iranian, Saudi intervention in Bahrain is considered 'occupation'.

Some Arabs see an Iranian conspiracy to target Kuwait and Bahrain (GCC countries)

CIA SIDES WITH MUSLIM BROTHERHOOD IN EGYPT?

Website for this image

"An ex-CIA agent and counter-intelligence expert has revealed in a special report that Barack Obama has quietly appointed individuals who are friendly to radical Islam to key posts within the Administration." (Report - Obama quietly appoints Muslim Brotherhood to key posts.)

On 19 March 2011, Egyptians vote in a referendum on changes to the constitution.

On 17 March 2011, we read that, the constitutional changes will help the Muslim Brotherhood

According to the Financial Times: "The Muslim Brotherhood ... looks poised to emerge as the main beneficiary of new political arrangements to be put in place by Egypt's transitional military authorities."

Egypt's CIA-controlled generals seem to have decided to side with the CIA-controlled Muslim Brotherhood against the 'youth-led secular groups'.

"Some analysts and political activists said the Supreme Military Council ... may have decided that an alliance of conservative forces presents a better option for the future than that offered by the young secular groups." (the constitutional changes will help the Muslim Brotherhood)

Hossam Tammam, an analyst who specialises in Islamist groups, says "There are signs the military may have decided to bet on the Brotherhood as the biggest organised force on the street.

"The others (small parties and secular groups) may be seen by the army as representing an unwanted and radical transition to democracy." (the constitutional changes will help the Muslim Brotherhood)

The Muslim Brotherhood and Mubarak's National Democratic party "look set to dominate the next parliament." (the constitutional changes will help the Muslim Brotherhood)

The Brotherhood "is the only political group to have been represented on the panel of legal experts handpicked by the military that drafted the constitutional changes." (the constitutional changes will help the Muslim Brotherhood)

Remember Iran, and compare the Shah with Mubarak.


According to this article: "The British, the Middle East and Radical Islam - Red Moon Rising":

"Prior to the British-sponsored massive public relations campaign on behalf of the Ayatollah, the government of the Shah was loved by the vast majority of the population...

"The Shah began to push forward a number of nationalist policies that increased his popularity at home but, in some cases, worried the Anglo-American Establishment.


"First, he signed petroleum agreements with ENI, the Italian oil company.

"Then in 1963 he pushed forward on a series of popular reforms that became known as the White Revolution.

"The Shah evolved into a nationalist whose path paralleled that of Nasser far too much for the Establishment's liking:

"He bought land from the upper classes and, along with the crown's own land, sold it back cheaply to tenant farmers, allowing over one a half million people to become land owners and ending the old feudal system.

"He allowed women the right to vote, and brought an end to the wearing of the veil, which were 'Westernizing' moves unwelcomed by the religious sector.

"He pushed forward on a $90 billion nuclear power program.

"He moved to shut down the lucrative opium industry that had been created during the days of British Empire control that had been running for a hundred years.

"The attack on the Shah's government came through the Muslim Brotherhood and through the mullahs and ayatollahs of Iran, supported and manipulated by British Intelligence..."

Radio Free Iran reportedly claimed that while at Qom Khomeini received a "monthly stipend from the British, and he is in constant contact with his masters, the British."

Clashes Irupts as Iran protests continue against Mahmoud Ahmadinejad

-Demonstrators were rallying to demand the release of two opposition leaders, according to the witnesses and an opposition web portal-
Iranian forces fired teargas and clashed with supporters of the opposition in central Tehran Area. where demonstrators were rallying to demand the release of two opposition leaders, according to witnesses and an opposition web portal.


"Security forces and people in civilian clothes clashed with demonstrators in Tehran to disperse them," opposition website Kaleme reported about Tuesday's events.


Kaleme said protesters rallied at several points in the capital, chanting "death to the dictator" and calling on authorities to free Mir Hossein Mousavi and Mahdi Karroubi.


Former presidential candidates Mousavi and Karoubi have not been seen in public since they called for a rally on February 14, during which thousands of their supporters took to the streets to support uprisings in the Arab world.




Family members and opposition activists say the two leaders have moved from house arrest to a Tehran prison along with their wives. Iranian authorities deny the reports. Sahamnews, another opposition website, reported large numbers of security personnel stationed at main streets and squares in Tehran "to prevent gathering of opposition supporters."





Iranian Authority has said it will not respond to international questions about the whereabouts of the opposition leaders. Some fear that they must be assulating them very brutally.


Tehran considers the matter a "completely domestic" affair, said Ramin Mehmanparast, the foreign ministry spokesman .


Mehmanparast said any "issues relating to" Mousavi and Karroubi "will be dealt in the framework of law by judicial authorities".


The semiofficial news agency ISNA quoted prosecutor Gholam Hossein Mohseni Ejehi as saying that the two men are not in a prison, but the report gave no further details.


Mousavi and Karroubi's suspected detention comes after the country's former reformist president, Mohammad Khatami, called on the authorities to release them.


Karroubi, Mousavi and their wives were under house arrest and living in complete isolation, their homes under surveillance and cut off from the outside world, according to their websites.




Calls for protests


The February 14 protests, the first to be held since February last year, angered the authorities who accused Mousavi and Karroubi of treason, according to opposition websites.


Mousavi and Karroubi had previously led a string of protests in Iran after president Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's controversial re-election in June 2009, which they claim was rigged.


Meanwhile, calls continued on social media sites for opposition rallies in Tehran, where security forces and plainclothes militiamen were deployed in efforts to stamp out any protest gatherings.


On Tuesday, witnesses said several people were arrested after police fired teargas on demonstrators in central Tehran.


The atmosphere was reportedly "volatile" in Valiasr Square and street and Enqelab Street in Tehran, the Iran Students Committe said. "Security forces and riot police are stationed all along the streets and intersections," the group said in a statement.


Clashes between protesters and security forces during the recent demonstrations have killed two and wounded dozens.

WHO CONTROLS THE EGYPTIAN MILITARY? HISTORY OF MANIPULATION

US Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Mike Mullen is greeted by Egyptian Armed Forces Chief of Staff Lt. Gen. Sami Enan in Cairo on 14 February 2010. Mullen was on a weeklong tour of the region.

The military's "displays of support for the protesters were conspicuous throughout the capital.

When the CIA toppled Indonesia's Suharto it had the support of the key American-trained generals. (aangirfan: STAGED BY SPOOKS: FALL OF THE BERLIN WALL, ORANGE ... )



These Indonesian generals got their soldiers to dress up as students in order to carry out the rioting; the military transported criminal gangs into Jakarta; youths were paid to act as rioters.



When the May 1998 Jakarta riots took place, the uniformed military were invisible.



The tanks only appeared after the president had been fatally weakened.

Hamad Subani looks at some history:



1. During World War I, it was the British who organised the Arab revolts.



The British did this in order to break up the Turkish Ottoman Empire, which controlled most of the Middle East.



(This Turkish empire included Palestine and oil rich Iraq, both of which certain British leaders wanted to control.)



2. The Western powers decided which families were to be the nominal rulers of the Arab countries.



"The rulers of Jordan now exclusively marry into Western ruling elite. Libya has ... close secret ties with the British ruling elite."



(There is a suggestion of a link to Lockerbie -Are Tunisia and Egypt facing real unrest or a manufactured crisis? )



3. The present unrest "is very region-specific.



"It does not seem to be spreading to places ... which are already under the thumb of the Powers That Be."



4. "There is the case of German/Swedish snipers/hunters being caught in Tunisia."



5. "The Western media appears to be magnifying the crisis."

7. The Iranian Revolution of 1970 was "on the lines of an Islamicized French Revolution (mob rule, executions, secret courts, destruction and displacement of the former ruling class etc.)



"The revolutionaries managed to create a powerful police state that now spearheads the clash of civilizations rhetoric prescribed by the Powers That Be.



"The secret ties of the Western ruling elite with some of the revolutionaries has been documented."



Little did Mossadegh and the Shah know that "the Powers That Be saw them only as temporary placeholders until Iran was consolidated under a new regime that was to play a critical role in advancing the 'Clash of Civilizations' agenda."



Reza Shah "turned over the police, intelligence and economic affairs of his country to his Western 'friends' who promptly set out to use them to create the conditions necessary for the revolution..." (See also: aangirfan: The Shah of Iran was toppled by the CIA and MI6?)

Iran has welcomed the revolution in Tunisia.

What about the Islamists in Tunisia?

The Islamist movement has been at the forefront of Tunisia's protests

Will the Islamists be used by Iran, or Saudi Arabia or the CIA or the Heroin traders?

Iran, Saudi Arabia and the CIA all appear to have a philosophy that could be described as 'fascist'.

The mad Moslems and the CIA have another thing in common: heroin.

"It has been said that the ubiquitous Rafsanjani family and also Ayatollah Vaez-Tabasi ... are deeply involved in the drug trade..." (Opium, Brown Sugar & Mullahs in Iran « Plateau of Iran )

"The gossip on the street, going well beyond the observable facts, has the Rafsanjanis stashing billions of dollars in bank accounts in Switzerland and Luxembourg; controlling huge swaths of waterfront in Iran's free economic zones on the Persian Gulf; and owning whole vacation resorts on the idyllic beaches of Dubai, Goa and Thailand."

1. In 1996, Tunisian Minister of Justice Sadok Chaabane said that Tunisian Islamists get their funding and political support from (1) Iran (2) Saudi Arabia.

(Justice Minister Describes Tunisia's Battle Against Islamist Takeover)

According to Chaabane, the 'Islamist' plan is to use Tunisia as "the gateway to its larger neighbors, Algeria and Morocco."

Tunisians belong to Sunni Islam, but Chaabane states that Tunisia's Islamist leaders will accept help from wherever they can find it.

Of course, some believe that the CIA sees Tunisia as its gateway into oil-rich Algeria and Libya.

And the CIA has been happy to use militant Moslems in Kosovo, Afghanistan and elsewhere.



2. Tunisia may now have a bigger problem with 'Islamist extremists' coming in from neighbouring Algeria.

In Algeria, war between the government and 'Islamists' has killed 200,000 people in the last twenty years.

(21 January 2011, Lin Noueihed of Reuters, "What role for the Islamists in the new Tunisia?")

3. In 1980, 30 armed men crossed from Algeria into Tunisia and made their way to the phosphate mining town of Gafsa in central Tunisia. (TUNISIA Plot - TIME)

There they were joined there by 20 other militants.

They tried to seize Gafsa's civil and military installations.

The local people refused to join the revolt.

Tunisian troops defeated the militants. 41 men died.

4. In 2007, Tunisia uncovered an alleged 'terrorist' plot.

"Police dismantled a 'terrorist' group after separate gun battles with suspects ... and recovered explosives, embassy maps and lists of foreign diplomats...

"The gun-battles ... were with members of a 'Salafist terrorist group' (CIA) comprised mainly of Tunisians...

"'Economic facilities' in resort towns had been targeted for attack by a jihadist group from neighbouring Algeria.

"They said the group was linked to the Al-Qaeda (CIA) affiliate Salafist Group for Preaching and Combat, a radical group which aims to create an Islamist state in Algeria.

"The group claimed responsibility for the April 2002 truck-bomb attack on a synagogue in Djerba, which killed 21 people including 14 German tourists." (aangirfan: The CIA, Mossad and the Djerba Bombing.)

Monastir. In the 1980s, a bomb exploded in a tourist hotel in the resort city of Monastir. A British tourist was maimed.

5. "Many fear that ... extremist ideas will (now) circulate..." as openly and as widely as democratic or secular ideas..." ("What role for the Islamists in the new Tunisia?")


6. Bernard Lewis helped to invent the West's new enemy, known as 'Islam'.

For the British, it was once the Jewish terrorists who were seen as being the enemy.

For the USA, it was once tiny Vietnam.

Professor Bernard Lewis is Jewish and has worked for British intelligence. (Bernard Lewis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia )

Lewis, born in London in 1916, is a historian and 'expert' on Islam.

In 1974, Lewis accepted a position at Princeton University.

In 1990, Lewis wrote an essay entitled The Roots of Muslim Rage.

In this essay, Lewis argued that the struggle between the West and Islam was gathering strength.

In this essay Lewis invented the phrase "clash of civilizations", which got mentioned in the book by Samuel Huntington.[13]

The phrase "clash of civilizations", was first used by Lewis at a meeting in Washington in 1957. [14]

There has been speculation that Lewis, the intelligence services and people like Brzezinski want to make the Moslem world look bad, so that it can be more easily controlled and exploited.

Much of the world's oil lies in Moslem lands.

How do you make Moslems look bad?

You can finance the extremists and help them into power.

You can carry out false flag operations.

Bernard Lewis argues (Bernard Lewis - Wikipedia) that the Middle East is backward due to its culture and religion.

The alternative view is that a country like Iraq is backward partly because of constant interference by countries such as Britain and the USA.

In his 1982 book Muslim Discovery of Europe, Lewis argues that Moslems behaved badly in the Algerian civil war (1992–98).

Lewis fails to point out that certain security services created the violence that began in Algeria in 1991. (aangirfan: Fake terror in Algeria; the US military in Algeria; oil ...)

Lewis fails to point out that many people believe that both Saddam and the Ayatollahs were put into power by the CIA. (aangirfan: Saddam worked for the CIA / aangirfan: The Ayatollahs and the CIA)

aangirfan: HEROIN IN IRAN; RAFSANJANI

LIES ABOUT BEN ALI AND THE SHAH

The CIA brought chaos to Iran in 1979. And on 20 January 2011, police are still firing 'warning shots' in Tunis

Russia's former ambassador in Tunisia Veniamin Popov commented on the situation in Tunisia as follows:

"The protests of the Tunisian people remind me of the Iranian revolution in 1979, when the Shah's regime was overthrown." (Is Tunisia a messenger of a big crisis?)

The Shah was modernising Iran, giving land to the poor and cracking down on heroin.

But he criticised Israel and he was not always cooperating with the USA on oil.

The CIA wanted a feudal Islamic Iran that could be used against Russia.

So, the Shah had to be demonised and toppled.

Ben Ali made Tunisia the most successful country in Africa, but he was not cooperating fully with the USA.

Tunisia supported neither the 1991 Gulf War nor the 2003 invasion of Iraq.

Ben Ali supported the Palestinians.

Ben Ali in Tunisia had to be demonised and toppled.

Ben Ali was popular, until there began a campaign of demonisation. (We have been to Tunisia).

1. In September 2010, Tunisia ratified the international treaty banning cluster munitions, becoming the first country in the Middle East and North Africa to do so.

Tunisia is not believed to have used, produced, stockpiled, or transferred cluster munitions.

Mohammad Pahlavi Coronation

According to Time magazine, 28 Nov, 1977 (Greetings for The Shah - TIME):

The Shah of Iran represented 'oil price hawkishness.'

In 1973, the Shah of Iran, whose nation was the world's second-largest exporter of oil, told the New York Times:

"Of course (the world price of oil) is going to rise. Certainly! And how...; You (Western nations) increased the price of wheat you sell us by 300%, and the same for sugar and cement...; You buy our crude oil and sell it back to us, refined as petrochemicals, at a hundred times the price you've paid to us...; It's only fair that, from now on, you should pay more for oil. Let's say ten times more."[3]

The Shah met President Carter in Washington in November 1977. The Shah agreed to help the USA by keeping down oil prices.

"Said the Shah, in polished if patronizing Americanese: 'We decided to give you a break.' (Greetings for The Shah - TIME )

The Shah had enemies.

When interviewed on CBS 60 Minutes by reporter, Mike Wallace, the Shah criticized US Jews for their control over US media and finance.[18]


According to 'A Century Of War : Anglo-American Oil Politics and the New World Order, by William Engdahl, a German historian:

1. In 1978, "negotiations were under way between the Shah's government and British Petroleum for renewal of the 25-year old extraction agreement.

"By October 1978, the talks had collapsed over a British 'offer' which demanded exclusive rights to Iran's future oil output, while refusing to guarantee purchase of the oil.

"With their dependence on British-controlled export apparently at an end, Iran appeared on the verge of independence in its oil sales policy for the first time since 1953, with eager prospective buyers in Germany, France, Japan and elsewhere...

The Iranian Shah meeting with Alfred Atherton, William Sullivan, Cyrus Vance, President Carter, and Zbigniew Brzezinski, 1977.

2. "In November 1978, President Carter named the Bilderberg group's George Ball, another member of the Trilateral Commission, to head a special White House Iran task force under the National Security Council's Brzezinski.

"Ball recommended that Washington drop support for the Shah of Iran and support the fundamentalistic Islamic opposition of Ayatollah Khomeini.

"Robert Bowie from the CIA was one of the lead 'case officers' in the new CIA-led coup against the man their covert actions had placed into power 25 years earlier.

"Their scheme was based on a detailed study of the phenomenon of Islamic fundamentalism, as presented by British Islamic expert, Dr. Bernard Lewis, then on assignment at Princeton University in the United States.

"Lewis's scheme, which was unveiled at the May 1979 Bilderberg meeting in Austria, endorsed the radical Muslim Brotherhood movement behind Khomeini, in order to promote balkanization of the entire Muslim Near East along tribal and religious lines.

"Lewis argued that the West should encourage autonomous groups such as the Kurds, Armenians, Lebanese Maronites, Ethiopian Copts, Azerbaijani Turks, and so forth. The chaos would spread in what he termed an 'Arc of Crisis,' which would spill over into Muslim regions of the Soviet Union.

"The coup against the Shah, like that against Mossadegh in 1953, was run by British and American intelligence..."

3. "Indications are that the actual planners of the Iranian Khomeini coup in London and within the senior ranks of the U.S. liberal establishment decided to keep President Carter largely ignorant of the policy and its ultimate objectives. The ensuing energy crisis in the United States was a major factor in bringing about Carter's defeat a year later."

4. "London was blackmailing and putting enormous economic pressure on the Shah's regime by refusing to buy Iranian oil production, taking only 3 million or so barrels daily of an agreed minimum of 5 million barrels per day.

"This imposed dramatic revenue pressures on Iran, which provided the context in which religious discontent against the Shah could be fanned by trained agitators deployed by British and U.S. intelligence. In addition, strikes among oil workers at this critical juncture crippled Iranian oil production.

"As Iran's domestic economic troubles grew, American 'security' advisers to the Shah's Savak secret police implemented a policy of ever more brutal repression, in a manner calculated to maximize popular antipathy to the Shah.

"At the same time, the Carter administration cynically began protesting abuses of 'human rights' under the Shah.

"British Petroleum reportedly began to organize capital flight out of Iran, through its strong influence in Iran's financial and banking community.

"The British Broadcasting Corporation's Persian-language broadcasts, with dozens of Persian-speaking BBC 'correspondents' sent into even the smallest village, drummed up hysteria against the Shah.

"The BBC gave Ayatollah Khomeini a full propaganda platform inside Iran during this time."

According to the Shah, in his memoir Answer to History, General Robert Huyser, a top NATO official, came to Iran, unannounced, with the primary mission of paralyzing the Iranian the army.[27]

Allegedly, according to some supporters of the Shah, the leaders of US, UK, France, and Germany, in a summit held in Guadeloupe in 1979, came to an agreement with the US to remove the Shah. (Mohammad Reza Pahlavi - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

On 19 January 1980, the International Herald Tribune reported that the Shah had said, two years before he was overthrown, that he had heard from two different sources connected with oil companies that the regime in Iran would change.

‘We believe that there was a plan to ensure less oil was offered to the world markets in order to bring about a price,’ said the Shah. ‘One country was to be chosen for the sacrifice... It seems that the country chosen to drop its oil production was mine.’ (webgardian: Shah:Oil Companies Helped to Oust Him)


Reportedly, the CIA and MI6 toppled the Shah because he had become too much of a nationalist, like Nasser, and was not following instructions on oil.

The CIA did not want left-wing democrats taking over from the Shah as they might not be easy to control. So, reportedly, the CIA allowed the Ayatollahs to take over.

Radio Free Iran claimed that while at Qom, the Ayatollah Khomeini received a "monthly stipend from the British, and he is in constant contact with his masters, the British."
The British, Muslim Terrorism and September 11

The Shah's nationalist policies worried the CIA and MI6.

The Shah signed petroleum agreements with ENI, the Italian oil company.

The Shah pushed forward popular reforms known as the White Revolution.

Opium production was ended.

There was a nuclear programme.

The Shah seemed like a nationalist Nasser and the Anglo-Americans wanted him out.

Prior to World War II, British Intelligence cultivated ties with the Brotherhood through agent Freya Stark, the British adventurer and writer... The Muslim Brotherhood spread throughout the Muslim world and has evolved into something like a Muslim equivalent of the West's Masonic brotherhood...

"According to CIA agent Miles Copeland... the CIA began to cooperate with the Muslim Brotherhood, the Muslim mass organization founded in Egypt but with followers throughout the Arab Middle East... This signalled the beginning of an alliance between the traditional regimes and mass Islamic movements against Nasser and other secular forces." (Blum)

Prior to the British-sponsored massive public relations campaign on behalf of the Ayatollah the government of the Shah was loved by the vast majority of the population.

The Shah evolved into a nationalist:

- He bought land from the upper classes and, along with the crown's own land, sold it back cheaply to tenant farmers, allowing over one a half million people to become land owners and ending the old feudal system.

- He allowed women the right to vote, and brought an end to the wearing of the veil, which were "Westernizing" moves unwelcomed by the religious sector.

- He pushed forward on a $90 billion nuclear power program.

- He moved to shut down the lucrative opium industry that had been created during the days of British Empire control that had been running for a hundred years....

The attack on the Shah's government came through the Muslim Brotherhood and through the mullahs and ayatollahs of Iran, supported and manipulated by British Intelligence...

IRAN & OMAN

Oman, which sees Saudi Arabia as more dangerous than Iran.

Oman has strong ties to the West.

But it wants to be friends with Iran.

During the Iran–Iraq War, Oman remained neutral.

On 10 January 2011, we read that Oman is to increase cooperation with Iran.

(Omani King: Cooperation with Iran Boosts Regional Stability‎ )

Oman

The Strait of Hormuz lies between Oman and Iran.

The Strait of Hormuz, the entrance to the Persian Gulf, is a major oil shipping route.

Iran and Oman signed a security agreement in August 2009.

In August 2010, Iran and Oman signed an agreement to further boost mutual cooperation in the field of defense.

According to the New York Times (Oman Navigates Between Iran and Arab Nations - NYTimes.com), "Oman, like Syria and Qatar, sees in Iran an important political and economic ally that is too powerful and too potentially dangerous to ignore, let alone antagonize.

"Even the United Arab Emirates, which is battling with Iranian leaders over the title to three Persian Gulf islands, has done little to stop billions of dollars in annual trade with Iran...

"Many people in Muscat said that they saw the ultraconservative Saudi Arabian approach to Islam as more of a danger to Omani interests, and stability, than Iranian activities in the region.

"Oman is a Muslim state, but 75 percent of the population is affiliated with a conservative sect called Ibadism. Over the years Saudi religious figures have tried to spread their more fundamentalist views in Oman."

It should be remembered that, at the time of Iran-contra, the USA delivered weapons to the Khomeini regime.



Mousavi, a 'friend' in Iran. In 2010, Time Magazine described Mousavi one of the most influential leaders of the world.



Tarpley points out that the CIA and its friends would like to topple Ahmadinejad and replace him with Mousavi, Rafsanjani, and Montazeri.



Mousavi supporters have chanted CIA slogans: "death to Russia" and "death to China."



Tarpley points out that Mousavi was Iranian prime minister (1981-1989) at the time of the CIA-manipulated Iran-Iraq war, "when the mullahs organized human wave suicide assaults by Iranian children."





Most heroin sold in Europe comes from Afghanistan.



Some of that heroin travels through Iran on its way to Europe.



In 2004, the BBC reported that Iran had the highest proportion of heroin addicts in the world. (Tackling Iran's heroin habit)

JEWISH CONTROL OF RUSSIA?

Putin

On 6 September 2010, Russia and Israel signed an agreement on military cooperation.

When we were in Greek Cyprus we noted the presence of a number of Russian millionaires with the most expensive cars you can imagine.

When we were in Italy we also sighted millionaire Russians.

Is Russia a Mafia state and is it close friends with Israel?

It is not just the UK security services which have strong links to Israel (THE CLASSIC SEX SCANDAL), it is also the Russian security services.

The KGB and Mossad used to share their secrets.

Marc Rich is Jewish.

According to Newsmax (Marc Rich Helped KGB Create Hidden Government,), 31 March 2001:

"Marc Rich, the most-wanted fugitive pardoned by former President Clinton, was a key figure in the Communist Party and the KGB's creation of an underground government that survived the break-up of the Soviet Union and still rules Russia today behind the scenes."

Medvedev has Jewish origins?

What are we to make of Russian prime minister Putin and Russian president Medvedev?

Medvedev's "maternal grandfather's first name was Veniamin - similar to the Hebrew Binyamin (Benjamin) - while his family name, Shaposhnikov, is sometimes a Jewish name." (Rumors that Putin's successor is Jewish.)

"Medvedev will be wonderful for the Jews," just as Putin was, declared Israeli-Russian businessman Lev Leviev, who heads the Federation of Jewish Communities of Russia. (Rumors that Putin's successor is Jewish.)

Reportedly, Stalin was Jewish and had Jewish mistresses. Reportedly, his top spy was Victor Rothschild.

In November 2009, Russian President Dimitry Medvedev told a visiting delegation from the European Jewish Congress that the Iranian threat is very real, as are the threats posed by North Korea and Pakistan, and should be treated seriously. (Medvedev to European Jewish Congress: Iran threat very real ...)

According to a western diplomat: "Russia's main problem ... is that an unholy nexus of politics, big business and organised crime still dominates the ruling class." (Putin legacy - Telegraph )

Mogilevich is Jewish

Reportedly, Putin Dared To Call The Bluff Of The Global Jewish Mafia.

In 2008, "according to Russian media reports, Mogilevich, a Ukrainian business tycoon and Mafia godfather, was arrested in a Moscow shopping center. (Die Welt, 26 Jan 2008, p. 11.)...

"Semion Mogilevich, mass murderer and global swindler, has officially been on the 'wanted' list for decades, but he enjoyed the protection of the most powerful government ministries in the world.

"This was especially true where the BND: Federal German Intelligence Agency was concerned...

"According to the ZDF German Television magazine 'Kennzeichnen D' (1 Sep 1999), Semion Mogilevich, the presumed godfather of the largest Russian crime syndicate, who has been named who in connection with billions swindled by the Yeltsin Clan, enjoys protection at the highest levels in all Europe.."

Mogilevich was arrested in Moscow on January 24, 2008, for suspected tax evasion.[25] [26]

He was released on July 24, 2009.

The Russian interior ministry stated that the charges against him "are not of a particularly grave nature."[27][28]

Beria was Jewish. "Beria was noted for having his bodyguards kidnap young schoolgirls so that he could rape them in his Lubyanka office, which doubled as a torture chamber."

General Leonid Ivashov is a former joint chief of staff of the Russian army.

On 28 September 2010, at voltairenet.org/en, Ivashov suggests that Medvedev has opted for the US-Israeli camp.

("In the Interests of Israel": Why Russia will not sell the S-300 Air Defense System to Iran)

According to Ivashov:

1. On September 22 2010, it was announced that Russia will not sell the S-300 air defense system to Iran.

2. This defence system is a purely defensive system.

3. The refusal to supply the S-300 complexes to Iran clearly hurts Russia's political and economic interests.

4. Tehran proposed a number of times to turn the Middle East into a nuclear-free zone.

5. Igor Yurgens, chief of a well-connected Russian thinktank, spoke on 28 July 2010 about the possibility of integrating Russia into NATO.

He reported that in the nearest future Russia would ­be importing at least 30% of the weapons and equipment for its army from Israel and NATO countries.

6. General V. Dvorkin paid a visit to Israel a short time ago. He urged US senators to OK launching an attack against Iran.

Russian girl, from http://www.russian-victories.ru/

7. On 6 September 2010, the defense ministers of Russia and Israel A. Serdyukov and Ehud Barak signed a first-ever agreement on military cooperation between the two countries.

This includes sharing intelligence and could mean that Russia spies on Turkey and passes information onto Israel.

8. Russia seems to be turning a blind eye to Israel's role in the attack on its troops in South Ossetia.

Israel assisted in organizing and launching the August 2008 unprovoked Georgian aggression against South Ossetia and the deadly raid against the Russian peacekeepers deployed in the republic.

9. Russia has a problem with its Moslem population in the Caucasus. (This may be being stirred up by the CIA and Mossad - Aangirfan)

10. There is a fear that Russia will join the "military escapades of the Anglo-Saxons and of the Israeli Zionist leadership in the name of the shadowy financial oligarchy’s global dominance."

Putin, from http://www.russian-victories.ru/

Anonymous added this comment:

"Medvedev might be leaning towards the Zionazis but dont count out the formidable chess player Vladimir Putin and remember that he won a stunning popularity because he threw the Jewish oligarch-mafia crooks behind bars.

"He also vapourized the Israeli base and their local infrastructure intended for an imminent attack on Iran, in Georgia. (IDF participated directly in the Georgian suprise attack on Russian peace keepers)

"The fact that Iranian critisism of the move is close to zero speaks something too and besides, Syria (host to the Russian mediterrian base at Tartus), which is a close ally of Iran, will get a similar defence system..."

Yuri Andropov, former leader of the USSR, was Jewish.

Winston Churchill wrote that: "in the Soviet institutions the predominance of Jews is astonishing.

"And the prominent, if not indeed, the principal, part in the system of terrorism applied by the Extraordinary Commissions for Combating Counter-Revolution has been taken by Jews, and in some notable cases by Jewesses...

"The fact that in many cases Jewish interests and Jewish places of worship are excepted by the Bolsheviks from their universal hostility has tended more and more to associate the Jewish race in Russia with villainies which are now being perpetrated..."

Researcher Wayne McGuire of Harvard University writes: "50% of the communist terrorist vanguard in the south and west of Russia was comprised of Jews." (http://www.russians.org/communist.html)

The Siberian novelist Valentin Rasputin wrote in 1990: "I think today the Jews here in Russia should feel responsible for the sin of having carried out the revolution and for the shape it took.

"They should feel responsible for the terror - for the terror that existed during the revolution and especially after the revolution ... their guilt is great.

"They perpetrated the relentless campaign against the peasant class whose land was brutally expropriated by the state and who themselves were ruthlessly murdered."

Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn's biographer wrote: "By the age of ten he had the cross ripped from his neck by jeering Pioneers and for over a year was held up to ridicule...

"Solzhenitsyn was, as a boy, exposed to students whose parents had an officially superior status.

"Most of the members of the Young Pioneers and Komsomol movements, at least in Rostov, were Jewish children..." (Michael Scammell, Solzhenitsyn: A Biography, p. 64).

According to the RNS wire service (reprinted in "The Christian News," Jan. 8, 1996, p. 2), "Some 200,000 (Christian) clergy, many crucified, scalped and otherwise tortured, were killed during the approximately 60 years of communist rule in the former Soviet Union, a Russian commission reported Monday (Nov. 27, 1995)...

"40,000 churches (were) destroyed in the period from 1922 to 1980..."

Russia's concentration camps and slave labor system were "staffed in its upper echelons by Jewish Communists."

Sixteen million ethnic Germans were forcibly expelled from Silesia, Moravia and the Volga at the end of the Second World War. Two million perished. 800,000 mostly Muslim Chechens were deported to Kazakhstan; a quarter of a million died enroute. 12% of the Baltic population was either deported to Siberia or executed. http://www.russians.org/communist.html

In the Bolshevik era, 52 percent of the membership of the Soviet communist party was Jewish, though Jews comprised only 1.8 percent of the total population (Stuart Kahan, The Wolf of the Kremlin, p. 81)

Generals who were not themselves Jewish often had Jewish wives. Among these were Marshal Voroshilov, Marshal Bulganin, Marshal Peresypkin and General Pavel Sudoplatov (Sudoplatov assassinated hundreds of Christian leaders including Ukranian Catholic Archbishop Teodor Romzha). This Jewish wife "insurance policy" extended to Politburo members such as Andrei Andreyev and Leonid Brezhnev.

Sergei Eisenstein: director of communist propaganda films which depicted Christian peasants (kulaks) as hideous, money-grabbing parasites. The kulaks were subsequently massacred.

KOMZET: commission for the settlement of Jewish Communists on land seized from murdered Christians in Ukraine; funded by Jewish-American financier Julius Rosenwald.

Ilya Ehrenburg, Minister of Soviet Propaganda and disseminator of anti-German hate material dating from the 1930s. Ehrenburg instigated the Soviet Red Army rape and murder of German civilians. Referring to German women, Ehrenburg gloated to the advancing Red Army troops, "that blonde hag is in for a bad time." In a leaflet addressed to Soviet troops, Ehrenburg wrote: "...the Germans are not human beings...nothing gives us so much joy as German corpses." (Anatol Goldberg, Ilya Ehrenburg, p. 197).

Kun's eventual successor was Matyas Rakosi, Jewish Communist mass murderer of Christians in Hungary. According to the Jewish Telegraph Agency of May 14, 1997, Jews "...played key roles in ushering Communist rule into Hungary. In fact, during the brutal oppression of the early 1950s, the regime's top five leaders were Jews. "

Zakharovich Mekhlis: top executioner for Stalin. Henrykas Zimanas: leader of Lithuanian communist terrorists, butcher of Christians.

Moshe Pijade (sometimes spelled Piade): commander, Yugoslav Communist People's Army. Tito's top butcher of hundreds of thousands of Croatian Christians. Pijade later served as president of the Yugoslav Communist Parliament. At least eighteen generals in the Yugoslav Communist People's Army were Jewish. The Yugoslavian communist party sent massive arms shipments to Jewish fighters in Palestine in the 1940s.

In post-war Poland that nation was completely dominated by Jewish communists: the torturer Jacek Rozanski, head of the Secret Police; the Politboro commander Jacob Berman
and commissars Minc, Specht (Olszewski) and Spychalski. These men murdered or deported to Kolyma and the other Arctic death camps, tens of thousands of Catholic Poles.

According to Jewish researcher John Sack, "In 1945 many Poles felt (and not without reason) that Jews ran the Office of State Security...the chief of the Office was Jacob Berman, a Jew, and all or almost all the department heads were Jews." Sack reports that 75% of the officers of the Communist Secret Police in Silesia were Jews. He noted that many Jews in the Communist terror apparatus in Poland changed their names to Polish ones like General Romkowski, Colonel Rozanski, Capt. Studencki and Lt. Jurkowski.

In Poland, "...a disproportionate number of Communists were Jews. In 1930, at its peak, 35% of the members of the party were Jewish. In Communist youth organizations, Jewish membership was even higher, while Communists of Jewish origin occupied most of the seats on the central committee. Communism appealed to some Jews because it opposed anti-Semitism more vigorously than any other Polish party...Jewish Communists reached their apogee in the years immediately after World War Two, when the party leadership was totally in the hands of the prewar Communist leadership that abhorred anti-Semitism." (Sheldon Kirshner, The Canadian Jewish News, Nov. 5, 1992, p. 16).

Solomon Morel : commandant of a post-war Communist concentration camp for Germans in Poland. Stalin deliberately put Jews in charge of such camps. Morel tortured and murdered thousands of Germans, sometimes with his bare hands (cf. "The Wrath of Solomon," Village Voice, March 30, 1993 and John Sack, An Eye for an Eye). Morel is comfortably esconsed in Tel Aviv.

Markus Wolf: chief of German Communist Stasi Secret Police.

Nahum Goldmann: founder, World Jewish Congress, communist propagandist. Rabbi Moses Rosen: agent, Romanian communist party. Victor Rothschild: allegedly top British espionage agent for Stalin.

Mark Zborowski: "...considered by historians of Soviet terror operations to have been the most fearsome...(Soviet) spy of all time" (Stephen Schwartz, Forward, Jan. 26, 1996). Zborowski, a medical researcher, murdered a dissident with a poisoned orange at the Soviet-run hospital in Paris. Zborowski was implicated in several other assassinations in 1936 and 1937. In the 1940s worked for both the American Jewish Committee and the KGB. In the 1960s Zborowski worked as a medical researcher at Mount Zion Hospital in San Francisco. He trained numerous psychiatrists and medical specialists in the Bay Area. He died in 1990 (cf. "The Strange Case of Doctor Zborowski and Monsieur Etienne" by Philippe Videlier, in Le Monde Diplomatique, Dec. 1992).
