DRUMS OF WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST:

A TUG-OF-WAR BETWEEN IRAN AND THE US/ISRAEL

Iran's "WMD's" threaten to vaporize the US Dollar

Whilst the internal struggle in the United States continues unabated 
between "Pragmatics" and "Hawks" as we describe in previous reports, 
PsyWar (psychological war) between the US and Israel on the one side, 
and Iran, on the other, continues escalating.   The "Hawks" in the US 
(the Bush Administration) and in Israel (the Olmert Government) 
insist that they will not tolerate Iran having a nuclear energy 
program, thus openly threatening that country with pre-emptive 
unilateral military attack.  At least that is how this whole matter 
is being presented to world public opinion.

The key factors surrounding this showdown, however, are actually 
quite different.  The on-going "Crisis with Iran" is governed by 
other factors that are NOT being properly addressed and discussed in 
the mainstream global media, the main one being the implicit threat 
from Iran of triggering a grave crisis of the US Dollar when they 
finally decide to open the new Oil Bourse in Tehran they have been 
announcing over the past two years.  Because when that finally 
happens, an important part of the world's oil market (an estimated 30 
to 40 percent of total world output) will cease being traded in US 
Dollars and will instead be done mainly in Euros, with supplementary 
bilateral deals in Roubles (with Russia), and Yuans (with China). 
Other countries sensitive to US bullying will no doubt follow suit 
and join this new System (Venezuela? Nigeria? Malasia?).  The result 
will be that a huge slice of the world's oil market will stop trading 
in "Petro-Dollars" and begin trading in "Petro-Euros" instead.

This will have a potentially devastating effect on the Dollar because 
there will be a sudden great demand for Euros and, symetrically, a 
great supply of US Dollars in global exchange and finacial markets. 
Those freed-up Dollars will automatically tend to flow rapidly 
towards the United States and financial circuits centered in New York 
and London, flooding them with uncontrollable masses of "former 
Petro-Dollars", generating high inflation - maybe even 
hyper-inflation.  Last year, in an article called "Death and 
Resurrection of the US Dollar" (published by GlobalResearch, an 
up-dated version of which we will make available next week), we 
described how this whole potential monetary crisis of the US Dollar 
might occur.



The key aspect that we need to understand is that the immediate 
effect of such a monetary "run on the US Dollar" would be to force 
the US to limit - if not suspend - its war operations in the Middle 
East, in order to cope with the National Emergency inside the US that 
would explode from a generalized economic collapse and ensuing social 
crisis.  Such a National Emergency would arise from the aggregated 
effects of an uncontrolled flood of "former Petro-Dollars" triggering 
the collapse of the Real Estate and Stock markets, the bankruptcy of 
a large number of mega-corporations; all of which will be made worse 
by the, as yet, unresolved and potentially extremely volatile Racial 
and Ethnic Fracture Lines in US Society.   Clearly, the Bush 
Administration cannot allow the US to slide into the chaos of a 
generalized Social War.

Mission Accomplished?

George W. Bush's mounting threats against Iran began about three 
years ago when Iran announced it was considering setting up a non-US 
Dollar based Oil Bourse, to trade its oil exports.  On a vastly 
smaller scale, something similar happened in November 2002, when 
Iraq's Saddam Hussein switched the currency used in the Oil for Food 
Program allowed by UN Sanctions after the First Gulf War in 1991, 
from Dollars to Euros.  That involved a relatively small amount - 
around u$s 1 billion annually - but it was enough to set off alarms 
in Washington and immediately put Saddam - a former Bush family 
political partner - squarely in the dock of the accused, guilty of 
being part of the "Axis of Evil".  Thus Saddam became a target in the 
"War on Terrorism", irrespective of the fact that US intelligence 
agencies clearly determined that Saddam was in no way connected to 
either 9/11 nor Al-Qaeda.  Anyway, the Bush Administration fabricated 
the gross and shameful "Weapons of Mass Destruction" charade, which 
the mainstream world media joyfully backed at the time.

The result?  Just four months later, in March 2003, the United States 
and the United Kingdom illegally invaded Iraq, plunging that Martyr 
Nation into a chaotic war that has devastated it, and has so far cost 
700.000 Iraqui lives.  The point that we should understand, however, 
is that no talk was ever heard again of Iraq selling its oil in any 
other currency but the US Dollar.  From this point of view, Bush can 
say without a doubt "Mission Accomplished!"

If today Iran were to decide to formally open its Oil Bourse trading 
in Euros, Roubles and Yuans competing with the world's three monopoly 
oil trading bourses in New York City (NYNEX- New York Mercantile 
Exchange), London (International Petroleum Exchange) and (soon to 
open) Dubai (Dubai Mercantile Exchange) all of which solely trade in 
"Petro-Dollars", then it should come as no surprise that the United 
States and its Ally / Overlords in Israel, are repeating the same 
threats against Iran as they did with Iraq, calling for a unilateral 
"pre-emprtive war" against Iran, again using a similar excuse: i.e., 
Iran's nuclear program allegedly bent on building "weapons of mass 
destruction".

Iran, however is not Iraq: Iran's threat to trigger a run on the US 
Dollar is for amounts vastly larger than anything Saddam could ever 
muster, whilst Iran's
Foreign Policy is infinitely more consistent, solid and well thought 
out.  Today, Iran has political, trading and probably military 
alliances with Russia and China and, in the European Union counts 
with implicitly strong support from France and Germany. 
Additionally, in spite of all the "bad press" Iran suffers in the 
Western media, they have acted most prudently as reflected in the 
fact that they repeatedly delayed the formal opening of the Tehran 
Oil Bourse, because they fully understand that this is a very high 
power "Weapon of Mass Destruction" they can wield against the United 
States and its key Imperial allies, and that Washington fears it 
infinitely more than any nuclear program which Iran might have.   So, 
they are acting very cautiously indeed.

Iran's economy minister, Davoud Danesh-Ja'fari just announced that 
"Iran wants to cut its dollar-based transactions to minimum...and 
contracts for months have included a clause that allows the nation to 
seek payment in the euro and other currencies".  (see Tehran  Times, 
08-Dic-06). Clearly, the Iranians are biding their time, waiting for 
the right moment and are doing so firmly and with calm. When the US 
Bloomberg news agency asked National Iranian Oil Company executive 
director for international affairs Hojatollah Ghanimifard whether his 
country would change its policy of trading its oil in Dollars, his 
poker-faced reply was "not yet...".  Clearly, a very intelligent 
war-of-nerves to see who blinks first, that is sending brats like 
Bush and Cheney climbing up the wall... It is no coincidence that the 
game of chess traces its roots back to the 7th Century Persian 
(Iranian) game of Chatrang....

In the Orwellian "Newspeak" that governs New World Order media, 
countries like Irak and Iran (and any other country not bowing 
immediately to  Imperial cues) will be immediately accussed of 
haboring "Weapons of Mass Destruction", which their "Mad and Rogue 
Leaders and Thugs" are set to use in order to unleash a "Nuclear 
Holocaust" upon the "Free World".  At the proper moment and heeding 
to the "Natural Clamour" of the "International Community" - just like 
in the Hollywood "Cowboys 'n Indians" movies of old - in come the 
US-Israeli-UK Rough-Riders, ready to save the day by destroying, 
one-by-one, these members of the "Axis of Evil".

"They hate our Freedom" is what Orwellian BOB (Bush-Olmert-Blair) 
says, but - read their lips: what they are really saying is "we hate 
the fact that they want to be free from us"!

Add to this, the fact that since 9/11 this process has accelerated at 
goose-stepping speed, with Imperial Storm Troppers stomping on 
Afghanistan, Lebanon, Iraq and Palestine; doing much arm-twisting in 
Pakistan, Turkmenistan, Saudi Arabia and Egypt; whilst they have a go 
at a coup-d'Etat or two in Venezuela and Bolivia - naturally all in 
the name of the "Freedom" and "Democracy" - and then you have the 
stage set for Imperial Global Conquest, financed by tons and tons of 
paper US Dollars irresponsibly dumped on world markets by the Federal 
Reserve Bank.

So, in plain English, the message is clear: "if you mess around with 
the US Dollar and put it at risk as the Imperial Global Currency, 
then you're gonna find out the hard way that, in the last instance, 
the Dollar is backed by the fighter-bombers, missiles, aircraft 
carriers, destroyers and (last but not least) nuclear bombs of the 
Armed Forces of the United States".

How else can it be explained that the US spends more than 50% of the 
world's entire arms and war spending (oops, sorry: "Defense" in 
Newspeak), and that includes Russia, China, Europe, Indian and Iran?. 
In short: today the US Dollar is backed by the Armed Forces of the 
United States.    (A surprising new "financial factor" for MBA's to 
include in their curricula...),  Nevertheless, this cannot and should 
not be allowed to continue much longer.

But the Imperial Leviathan has mud feet, and the free-thinking 
Peoples of the World are starting to realize that "King Dollar" is, 
in fact, naked...

Iran's "Holocaust" Conference

Whilst all of this takes place, Iran hosted an International 
Historical Revisionist Conference in Tehran, on the so-called Jewish 
"Holocaust", that brought together independent researchers, 
historians and religious leaders from the whole world, including 
Frenchman Robert Faurisson and the US Rabbis Against Israel group. 
Iran's hosting of this Conference brought with it "fire and 
brimstone" ire from Israel, the global mainstream media, 
international Zionist organizartions and the US and UK governments. 
However, in spite of all the hysterical press distortions and abuse, 
the facts are that this event had three clearly defined objectives 
which the world press has not properly informed, much less addressed:

1) Achieving a more balanced historial perspective on this issue  -

World War II cost more than 60 million lives on all the sides in 
Europe and Asia.  It seems, however, that mankind's attention is 
almost solely focused on the suffering of 10% of those victims - 
i.e., the alleged 6 million European Jews persecuted by the German 
National Socialist regime.   Non-Zionist Jewish researchers like 
Norman Finklestein have described this phenomen as the "Holocaust 
Industry", fabricated and used to generate political and public 
support inside the US and other countries, favourable to Israel (see 
"The Holocaust Industry: Reflections on the Exploitation of Jewish 
Suffering" - New York, 2000).   Harvard University, in turn, last 
March published "The Israel Lobby and US Foreign Policy", a paper 
co-authored by the Dean of the John F  Kennedy School of Government, 
Stephen Walt and Chicago University professor John Mearsheimer, in 
which they describe the excesive power, influence and leverage 
exerted by pro-Israeli Zionist lobbies like AIPAC (American Israeli 
Public Affairs Committee), which has been able to bend US Foreign 
Policy so that it prioritizes Israel's national interest over and 
above that of the United States itself.  This reflects the overriding 
power that "Israel First!" groups exert over US Foreign Policy.

Prestigous academics like Zbigniew Brzezinsksi have both welcomed and 
voiced their support for this key investigation (a summary version is 
available in London Review of Books (Vol. 28, No. 6, 23-Mar-2006) at 
<http://www.lrb.co.uk>www.lrb.co.uk).  In turn, former president 
Jimmy Carter, in a recent Los Angeles Times article ("Speaking 
Frankly about Israel and Palestine", LA Times, 08-Dec-06), said, "For 
the last 30 years, I have witnessed and experienced the severe 
restraints on any free and balanced discussion of the facts. This 
reluctance to criticize any policies of the Israeli government is 
because of the extraordinary lobbying efforts of the American-Israel 
Political Action Committee and the absence of any significant 
contrary voices. It would be almost politically suicidal for members 
of Congress to espouse a balanced position between Israel and 
Palestine, to suggest that Israel comply with international law or to 
speak in defense of justice or human rights for Palestinians. Very 
few would ever deign to visit the Palestinian cities of Ramallah, 
Nablus, Hebron, Gaza City or even Bethlehem and talk to the 
beleaguered residents. What is even more difficult to comprehend is 
why the editorial pages of the major newspapers and magazines in the 
United States exercise similar self-restraint, quite contrary to 
private assessments expressed quite forcefully by their 
correspondents in the Holy Land."

"The Holocaust" Myth is clearly an integral part of the Propaganda 
Machine wielded by Zionist lobbies to generate unconditional support 
for Israel in the United States.  This support includes huge 
financial and military transfers, unbending diplomatic backing and 
giving Israel hundreds of nuclear weapons, a fact which Israeli PM 
Olmert has just admitted is true.  The mass psychological impact of 
"The Holocaust" dramatizations through literally thousands upon 
thousands of very well financed "documentaries", "eyewitness 
reports", Hollywood movies, TV series, books, novels, plays, 
articles, monuments, anniversaries, cultural events, NGO's, lobbies, 
museums, school and university courses, news-clips and a myriad of 
other vehicles used to shove "The Holocaust" down the world's throat, 
has been so well orchestrated and stage-managed that, among all the 
horrific and cruel persecutions and genocides perpetrated in modern 
times, the persecution of European Jews by the National Socialist 
regime is the only one that has its own "Registered Trademark": "The 
Holocaust".

Other genocides, many of which were far worse than the one suffered 
by the Jews, are thrown into History's waste bin: the massarcre of 3 
million kulaks at the hands of Stalin in the thirties, the genocide 
of 2 million Armenians at the hands of the Turks in 1904, tens of 
millions of "disappeared" in the Soviet GULAG, 5 million killed in 
Cambodia by Pol-Pot's Khmer Rouge, 2 million killed by the US in 
Vietnam, and the now almost 2 million Iraquis killed by the Bush 
Family and their Associates since the First Gulf War in 1991 to date, 
to mention but a handful, are all tragic genocides where world public 
awareness is close to zero.  Clearly, "The Holocaust" is the only 
genocide-show playing on Broadway...

2) Distinguishing between Political Mystification and rigorous 
Historical Truth -

History, as a discipline, requires permanent investigation of new 
sources, documents, data, information and analyses.  This means that 
any serious historical research must keep an open mind permeable to 
whatever "revisionism" such new data and documentation may warrant. 
This applies to World History, Ancient History, National History and, 
of course, Modern History, as it allows us to have an increasingly 
correct view of the past.  This is actually notably important in the 
case of Modern History (which is when the persecution of European 
Jews took place), because the sources of "Modern History" are 
day-to-day politics and events that, as the years and decades go by, 
gradually become "history".  At least that is how it should be. 
However "The Holocaust" refuses to become true "History" and, to this 
day, insists on remaining an autonomous Political System or creature, 
having clear political objectives.

The key question then is why scientific, objective and serious 
historical research regarding "The Holocaust" is banned, even banned 
by law as is the case in countries like France, Canada, Germany and 
Austria.  This is why, for example, prestigious historians like David 
Irving from the United Kingdom and researchers like Germany's Ernst 
Zündel could not attend the Tehran Conference: both are presently in 
prison in Austria and Germany respectively, for having voiced their 
historical views on the subject.  Clearly, very eloquent examples of 
the true "Newspeak" definition of the "Right to Free Speech" in 
today's "Democracies".

Additionally, the Tehran Conference never sought to deny that Jews 
were persecuted in Europe in the thirties and forties.  What it 
merely sought to do was to place this entire Historical episode in 
its proper perspective, determining its correct dimensions in what 
refers to: how many Jews were actually killed, how they were killed 
(as many died as a consequence of the hardship and destruction 
wrought by the Allied bombing campaigns) and by whom they were killed 
(especially, in what refers to the actions of the former Soviet 
Union).  Interestingly, the Zionist pro-Israeli mainstream media 
implicitly admits that any such investigation poses a grave danger to 
Zionism.  Amidst all the insults and threats from such newspapers 
like the Los Angeles Times, in their 13-Dec-06 issue however, they 
ran an article called "Holocaust denial can be dangerous" which 
concludes by saying that, "...attacking the legitimacy of the 
Holocaust allows....(attacking) the legitimacy of Israel, which was 
created by the United Nations as a result of the Holocaust. If the 
first act didn't happen, then the second act wasn't necessary."

Now there's the rub!    If "The Holocaust" did not happen as Zionists 
say it did, then Israel should not have been created the way it was.
The whole matter would then require being fully re-assessed and 
re-vamped, forcing all key players to the negotiating table to 
resolve the "Arab-Israeli conflict" in a balanced manner taking into 
account the interests of all the parts involved: Palestinians, the 
Muslim countries, all Jews and other players - and not just the 
Zionists' interests as is the case today.   If it were to be proven 
that "The Holocaust" has, in fact, been stage-managed for political 
reasons in order to promote Israeli interests, then the State of 
Israel and the United States as public players, and the global 
Zionist organizations as private lobbying entities would have to 
accept their share of responsbility for the damage, suffering and 
hardship they have wrought upon the Middle East and the world and, 
accordingly, they should be held accountable.

3) Achieving a better understanding regarding the origins of the 
Arab-Israeli Conflict -

Finally, and independently of the actual results of "The Holocaust" 
Conference, there still remains one key and fundamental issue: If 
European Jews were persecuted by certain European countries in the 
thirties and forties, why then should the Palestinians have had to 
pay for those injustices?  If there is one thing regarding which 
there is absolutely no doubt is the fact that the Palestinians had 
absolutely nothing to do with the persecution of European Jews and 
"The Holocaust".    The problem is that over the past seventy years, 
the powerful Allies of World War II supported International Zionism 
helping them steal Palestinian territory from its rightful 
inhabitants, who had been there for over a thousand years, and thus 
allowing Zionist guerrilla groups like The Stern Gang, Irgun Zwai 
Leumi and The Hagganah to displace millions of Palestinians using the 
most violent and perverse terrorist tactics since before the founding 
of the State of Israel, until today.  We have now seen more than six 
decades of Israeli Zionists persecuting, assassinating, 
discriminating, humilliating, torturing and maiming millions of 
Palestinian men, women and children and attacking all who try to help 
them.  They could not do this without superpower support.

The key objective of "The Holocaust" Conference then, has been to 
show that the persecution of European Jews by Germany may not have 
occurred in the way Zionist propoganda insists that it did.  It would 
delegitimize the very act of creation of the State of Israel, which 
would only remain supported by a weak set of half-truths, blatant 
lies, distortions and rigging of reality, imposed through violence 
and coersion upon the peoples of the Region.  In other words, Israels 
"Birth Certificate" would be shown as being fraudulent.

Within this context, president Ahmadinejad's proposal should be 
seriously considered: if it was the Germans who were responsible for 
the persecution of European Jews, then Germany should cede part of 
its territory to the Israeli Zionists for them to found a new 
sovereign Jewish State in Europe (which is where the present Israeli 
ruling class came from in the first place).

This obvious conclusion would allow the whole problem of the Middle 
East to be quickly resolved once and for all.   It would allow rapid 
devolution of all of Palestine to the Palestinians.  Germany would 
take upon itself a good part of the economic cost of transferring the 
bulk of the Israeli population out of Palestine and into Germany (no 
doubt, wealthy Germany has more than enough money to do  that), and 
the United States would also give financial support (for sixty years 
they have giving away billions of Dollars to Israel, anyway).  This 
seems to be the true spirit of the much distorted and touted phrase 
of "whiping Israel off the map".  What the Muslim World needs is for 
Israel to be removed from their Lands.

Re-founding Israel in Bavaria, for example, would give Zionist 
Israelis a privileged place in the world, and would at the same time 
bring rapid and lasting peace to the whole Middle East.  Naturally, 
the Western media and Western political leaders all react 
hysterically to such an idea, yelling  insults and threats.  However, 
none seem to have the courage nor the arguments to face this 
challenge and properly address these issues the way they are being 
presented.  It seems to be much easier for Western leaders to slam 
the door shut, distort reality, and put their ostrich heads under the 
ground, instead of acting like True Statesmen, helping to resolve a 
problem that is so serious, that it could very well lead to a Third 
World War in the coming months.

Finally, there is also a clear moral side to this whole issue: a 
solution as described above would resolve one of the greatest 
collective crimes commited in modern times, which is the outright 
robbery and looting of Palestine by Zionist forces backed by the 
Allies of World War II.

The Argentine Second Republic Movement (MSRA - Movimiento por la 
Segunda Republica Argentina), also feels that these complex issues 
need to be openly and publicly debated in Argentina, so that our own 
populace may fully understand what this is all really about.  This is 
particularly important for Argentina, considering that international 
and local Zionist organizations, and the governments of the United 
States and Israel have succeeded in dragging Argentine president 
Néstor Kirchner to falsely accuse Iran over the terrorist bombing of 
the AMIA Jewish Mutual Association in July 1994, thus giving Israel 
and the US yet another "good excuse" to launch a pre-emptive military 
strike against Iran.

The stakes for us are very high, because if that were to happen, then 
Argentina will bear clear responsibility for helping Israel and the 
US in carrying out their Imperial Wars of Conquest in the Middle 
East.   We have described this in detail in many of our recent Press 
Releases (some, like Nos. 9 and 10 of 12-November-2006, are available 
in English at <http://www.m2ra.com>www.m2ra.com).

Misinformation and propaganda in the local Argentine press

The undersigned just had his first hand experiences of how the 
Zionist Propaganda Machine works when local TV talk-show host "Mauro 
Viale" (a.k.a., Mauricio Goldfarb) invited me to discuss "The 
Holocaust" on his program.  Only minutes after the interview began, 
Mr. Viale interrupted to put through a telephone call from a lady 
alleging that she was "an 82 year old Holocaust survivor", whereupon 
she immediately began shrieking, screaming and crying whilst Mr.Viale 
gave her all the TV time in the world to express her drama.  It goes 
without saying that it was not possible to even begin discussing 
Iran's "The Holocaust" Conference in a serious and mutually 
respectful manner.

In a way, these grotesque episodes are "good news" because they show 
that International Zionists have completely run out of all arguments 
to support, justify and explain the crimes, lies and suffering 
perpetrated by the State of Israel.  They are therefore left with no 
option but to insult, threaten, yell, interrupt, cry, wail, not 
listen, not answer, change the subject, become hysterical, shove 
away, laugh at.... In short, they will do ANYTHING in order not to 
face the issues and answer the questions they are chellenged with by 
independently thinking people.

Naturally, they can (for the time being) continue doing this because 
every "politically correct" journalist, political analyst and 
government officer knows full well that they are backed by the 
immensely powerful Voice of International Zionism, lavishly financed 
by tens of billions of dollars generated by their huge worldwide 
Political, Economic, Military, Media and Propaganda Machine.

But time is quickly catching up with them: the day draws nigh when 
the peoples of the world will see for themselves that, no matter how 
loud you scream, a lie remains always just that: a lie.

Ushering in a much-needed Public Debate in Argentina

Lastly, the Argentine Second Republic Movement proposes that a 
Multi-disciplinary International Conference be organized in Buenos 
Aires next year, promoting an Open and Public Debate amongst all 
opinion sectors, with the view of establishing the true nature of 
power and leverage exerted by International and Local Zionists 
organizations and interests in our country.

This is particularly important considering that many of these Zionist 
lobbies active in Argentina, heed the "Israel First" cue emanating 
from global Zionist lobbies and the Israeli Government, and thus 
permanently promote the interests of that Foreign Power - presently 
at war -, over the interests of the Argentine Republic, a fact 
reflected in the Argentine Government's siding with US and Israeli 
"Hawks" (Bush & Olmert) in their imminent unilateral pre-emptive war 
against Iran.

Such an Open Public Debate should focus on two key factors affecting 
Argentina, but which are also applicable to just about any country in 
the world:

1.
Identify the true nature, extent and sources of financing of Zionist 
lobbies and leveraging over public affairs in Government, among 
politicians, in universities, and in the Media.

2.
Design checks and balances to ensure that no minority group can 
acquire excessive power and then use it against the National 
Interest.  If we truly value Democracy, then we must be alert against 
any minority group acquiring excessive power.  After all, Democracy 
is supposed to be "Government by the MAJORITY of the People", not by 
a minority.   Correspondingly, all illegitimate machinations, 
maneuvering and lobbying on the part of miniorities - whether 
domestic or foreign - geared on imposing their MINORITY interests and 
objectives on the MAJORITY of the People, is clearly Un-Democratic. 
This becomes especially vital when such minorities are aligned with 
the interests of foreign warring powers.
