GORDON DUFF: WHAT IF EVERYTHING YOU BELIEVED WAS A LIE?
HOW FAR DO THEY GO? IS THERE ANY LIMIT?
By Gordon Duff STAFF WRITER/Senior Editor
What if I told you that much of what you think of news or history is totally false? You hear this every day, in fact you hear little else. People say little else. The president is a Muslim from Kenya, John McCain is a communist spy and collaborator. Osama bin Laden is dead. Israel was resonsible for 9/11. President G.W. Bush is a drunk and cocaine addict. The CIA deals drugs. Fox News is a Mossad front meant to destroy America. The holocaust never happened. Israel is a poor threatened country with powerful neighbors. The US never went to the moon. John F. Kennedy, his brother Robert and Martin Luther King shot each other after killing Jimmie Hoffa. Is any of this true? Is all of it a lie, or are we constantly bombarded with outlandish conspiracies because many of them are very true?
We have two sources of information today, the “media” and the internet. Currently 95% of the “media,” meaning TV, newspapers and the most powerful internet sites are controlled by people tied to Israel. They make the movies, print the magazines and decide what TV shows we watch, including the ones we actually like. Is this good or bad? I am a big fan of a number of Jewish writers, directors, producers and without Jews in our society, America would be bland. Where things have gotten out of hand is that extremists, not the Jews we know, live with or have as family members, but some genuinely crazy folks in Israel and in the US, “Rupert Murdoch (yes, he is Jewish)” people have taken on some of the same type of ideas that Hitler and his crew had years ago.
Now its them. Before that, it was the McCarthy folks telling us all Jews were communists and before that America was run by people who thought African Americans were a type of monkey. One of these folks, Strom Thurmond from South Carolina, was in the Senate until 2003. What’s the point? We like to think of ourselves as a country of decent working people who want to do what is right, value truth and honesty and have a sense of honor and morality.
That is total bull.
That was another generation. I was reading an article by Jeff Gates about the movie, Exodus, a movie about Israel and how it began. Gates tells me that the movie was almost entirely untrue and was made to fool people into hating Palestinians and Arabs and not looking at some of the really bad things Israel was doing long ago, and, as we are told now, is still doing. But when I read the papers, I am told Israel is a poor country surrounded by enemies, facing destruction every minute.
Then I stop and think. If Israel and American Jews that support Israel, some over the United States, control 95% of our news, how do I know if anything is true. For months, Fox News told us of constant rockets from Gaza killing busloads of Israeli children. Then I remembered. It was Fox News that showed us the film after 9/11 of the “dancing Palestinians.”
I will remember that every day of my life, that lie. When, years later I learned that the film was a phony, as was most of the news I had gotten about Israel during my life, and I learned the only “dancing” on 9/11 was an Israeli film crew that seemed to be expecting the planes to hit the towers, I gave up MSM/corporate news and started doing my own “truth check” on every email I got.
Most emails I get turn out to be totally false.
Currently, Americans hear nothing about Gaza or the Israeli “defensive attack” or the “Israeli genocide” as it is called everywhere else in the world. Since I am absolutely certain that our MSM lies in favor of Israel because a simple check shows Israeli companies or Jews own and run everything then should we look elsewhere? How do you compare one lie to another? Do we believe Fox News because we like to watch Fringe or because we are continually told that we should be blaming other people? Does that make you feel good?
Let’s check out this simple film on the Gaza problem, one that seems to say that something extremely illegal, murderous and evil went on, paid for and supported by America and covered up by our news. If any of this is true, then any act of terror against the United States, the ones unlike the Detroit “Crotch Bomber” which we know was an Israeli holiday prank, is easy to understand.
Are we begging for terror attacks? It seems so. Why would we do that? Is somone getting rich by us actually taking part in outlandish crimes to start a “war on terror.” Hey, I know what you can do. Turn on your TV and wait for the Israeli run news to tell you the truth. Make sure you are comfortable, it is going to be a long wait.

ps:
Thanks, Duff, for keeping up the pressure.
“Outing” Israel is key!!
Excellent article, surely Gordon will be invited on the various television talk shows to express his views about Israel and biased pro-Israeli media. Well, perhaps not.
Here is another issue that needs to be exposed; from the article:
It turns out that Israel has had a potential wiretap on every phone in America for years, along with the ability to monitor and record who any person is calling, anywhere in America; information of great value even if one does not listen to the calls themselves. Amdocs, Inc. the company which sub contracts billing and directory services for phone companies around the world, including 90 percent of American phone companies, is owned by Israeli interests. Yet another company, Comverse Infosys, is suspected of having built a “back door” into the equipment permanently installed into the phone system that allows instant eavesdropping by law enforcement agencies on any phone in America. This includes yours.
Now, I want you all to stop and think for a minute of the full ramifications of this. Israeli interests have the ability to listen in on ANY phone in America connected to any of the systems used by Amdocs or Comverse Infosys.
The revelation of an Israeli-linked system for monitoring and potentially listening in to the phone calls of every single person in the nation at will opens up the possibility that a massive blackmail operation, unprecedented in scale, is the real force shaping media bias and United States policy.
The reality is that this nation’s politicians and media leaders all have secrets to hide.
http://whatreallyhappened.com/WRHARTICLES/blackmail.html
Two Israeli companies in particular—Amdocs and Comverse Infosys, both of which are headquartered in Israel—do significant business in the United States. Amdocs, which has contracts with the 25 largest telephone companies in the U.S. that together handle 90 percent of all calls made, logs all calls that go out and come in on the system. It does not record the conversations themselves, but the records provide patterns, referred to as “traffic analysis,” that can provide intelligence leads. In 1999, the National Security Agency warned that records of calls made in the United States were winding up in Israel. Amdocs also has an apparent relationship with some of the art students who were arrested in 2001. Several were provided with bond money by an Amdocs executive.
Comverse Infosys provides wiretapping equipment to law enforcement throughout the United States and also has large contracts with the Israeli government, which reimburses up to 50 percent of the company’s research and development costs. Because equipment used to tap phones for law enforcement is integrated into the networks that phone companies operate, it cannot be detected.
Many experts believe that it is relatively easy to create a so-called “back door” that permits the recording to be sent to a second party, unknown to the authorized law-enforcement recipient.
Congressman Bob Ney, currently in prison for corruption, arranged a noncompetitive bid for the Israeli telecommunications company Foxcom Wireless to install equipment to improve cellphone reception in the Capitol and House office buildings.
The possibility that someone in the Israeli Embassy might be listening to congressmen’s private phone conversations is intriguing to say the least.

Hey Brian,
I have a radio show Monday thru Friday, 1-3 pm http://www.talkradio1370.com/ney/
and Brian, I do not do the show from prison! I have been out for awhile. Your Israeli conspiracy theory is fascinating, what is it you are smoking?
Best To You,
Bob Ney
Bob,
Next time you get stuck in an airport, no passport and a bomb stuck in your underwear, you better have some Mossad buddies to help you along.
g
Well, perhaps you are the former politician Bob Ney or perhaps a haberdashery salesman from Iowa having a little fun. Read this stunning text about the Israeli intelligence agency the Mossad. http://s1.zetaboards.com/LooseChangeForums/topic/2793786/1
Yes, it seems that Israel’s Mossad masterminded the 911 attacks. The conspiracy theory was that Osama bin Laden, a former CIA asset masterminded the attacks. Read the stunning text from the link.
I eat cheese puffs and drink diet Dr. Peppers but I don’t smoke.
Duffy and so it goes, blackmail,bribery and coercion to get our solders killed and millions of innocent civilians for what? peace? democracy? the fucking intrusion by israel into our goverment gives new meaning to puppeteering.we do all that and more.. now it comes home to roost.better be careful we might get our strings all tangled up!
What evil Fox News is. Cynically orchestrating those neocon waterboys like Beck, Hannity, and O’Reilly to mouth the pieties of suburban barbecue ethics for no other purpose than thereby encapsulating the incineration of innocent Afghan and Iraqi women and children in sham patriotism and in the name of peace and democracy. We are an occupied nation and enslaved people who turn to our enemies for news, think at their command, and still imagine ourselves the freest people on Earth. As Spengler put it, there could be no greater caricature of freedom than that.
when will normal decent israeli’s – and there are many – step up and shout enough is enough?
if they dont’ when will normal & decent people of the world do so?
thanks G. a home run once again.
Steve,
Israel is full of decent folks as is America. Being decent isn’t as profitable as rigging elections, stealing and killing the innocent. Lots of folks do this but Israel is losing their amateur status of late.

Just the fact that the Born Again Christians a/k/a Jews For Jesus do not tell the truth when it is so so available
Hebrews 6:6 “We crucify Christ (TRUTH) afresh and put Christ to an open shame.” Read THE EXECUTED GOD BY mARK lEWIS tAYLOR, Fortress Press, 2001, never in all of my years including Seminary have I encountered such an experience as this book – want to give it to our Native American Veterans Incarcerated but Fortress Press will not answer us as to how much they would provide it for such a needed Spiritual Paradigm –

And your cross-verification sources are …? I’m not surprised at some of your claims of Israeli involvement in US politics and finances. I’m sure it works the other way, too. Neither could get away with the things they do without the support of the other.
Peace in the Middle East? Not a chance. Lack of violence or war in the Middle East? Slim to none.
I asked Rita Katz. She said she found it on the internet but couldn’t remember where, same sources the newspapers use.
U got no respect .
If you are curious about sources, tons of them…try… http://www.criminalstate.com
hey gordie….good luck with that.

The answer to the question is our current state of affairs.
The selling of body parts by the NJ and NY Rabbi system is not a lie however. Those guys were caught on vid, tape, in person, and phone. Not a huge news item unless your from NJ or NY.
Back in the 50′s, 60′s, most of my textbooks were from Jewish publishers as were most of my teachers. Took the Marine Corps, English literature, and Theology to help re-program me to other lies. Been an interesting tour indeed.
I do believe Gordon is writing truthfully. Please keep up the good work.
George,
It is not about me. it is about us.

There he goes again. Almost every article by Mr. Duff is anti-Israel or anti-Jewish. I am an Israel supporter and just when I think Israel is in trouble I read one of Mr. Duff’s articles and feel better. Mr. Duff’s next article will probably be how Israel caused the earthquake in Haiti. Remember Jesus was a Jewish Rabbi. The Israelis are his ancestors. I suggest Mr. Duff live with the Arabs or Palestinians for a period of time to get a better perspective.
While you are disliking Jewish people do not ever sing God Bless America, Easter Parade or White Christmas as they were written by a Jewish composer Irving Berlin.
Frisco, (person with no name)
I grew up with Jews. I have lived with Arabs. Both hate Christians. If Jesus was a rabbi, as you state, then he was married and had children, which makes you a heretic. Very simply, you can’t be an Israeli supporter and an American at the same time, not since the USS Liberty incident in 1967. You can be Muslim, Christian or Jew but you can’t be an American and a supporter of a foreign country. We call that treason.
Make your choice.
Well said, g. The USS Liberty is just one particular problem with the bad part of Israel— note, not the good, plentiful Israelis. I love it when a case is methodically and accurately built — like J. Gates. And the latest AIG hearings in Congress concerning the oligarch pawn Geithner (or however you spell that idiot’s name. Talk about letting the fox in the henhouse, with his sitting on his brains Obama guarding the door. Sheez!
Uh, you are picking on poor Murdoch again. He has/had a Jewish mother, therefore he is Jewish? I know another guy I rather like who has a similar lineage problem. I wonder who that is?
Keep writing man, you did good on this one. Tom the Houston Vet
Murdoch has a Jewish mother. This is the ONLY way you can be Jewish. He also practices the relgion and is extremely active in extremist Israeli politics. That you are unaware of these things surprises me. It goes much further than this. time for you to make more of an effort.

After a few years in the military, I saw this happening, That is why I had to leave the service I saw how easily the lies were covered up. And THAT I did NOT swear to.
“A better world — not perfect, by no means perfect, but much better — is entirely possible. We could easily dismantle the empire — carefully, safely, with deliberation — over the next ten years. It is a reasonable, moderate, serious option. It would not require violent revolution, or vast social upheaval. But our elites do not want this. They can no longer fathom life without the exercise — and worship — of power that empire entails. They will not accept — or even contemplate — any alternative to it.
And thus every option and policy we are offered — whether from right-wing Republicans or “progressive” Democrats, or from “serious” news analysts on “serious” papers — must fall within these pathetically cramped, constricted mental horizons. Empire — the imposition of dominion by violence and threat of violence, and the financial and moral corruption this breeds, the example it sets at every level of society — is the canker in the body politic. Until it is dealt with, there will be no healing, no hope, no change — just more degradation and disaster all down the line.”

Gordon pretty much what we have always been told is a lie. I have know it for ;years.
Jesus was a Palestinian also. There is another lie for you. I don’t care who wrote Rudolph the red nose reindeer or White Christmas either.
You get better all the time Gordon, don’t let the disinfo experts buffalo you.

More poisons being hidden in American’s food behind labels. You are just not dying fast enough people. Don’t you realize there is no more money for SSA and retirement, be a patriot and just keel over!
“If you haven’t heard about Senomyx think of a flavor enhancer like MSG. The bad news doesn’t stop there, but the FDA says they don’t have to label it. It comes under artificial flavors. Of course, we’ve told all consumers never to use processed foods, and especially anything that says artificial and/or natural flavors which is where they hid aspartame and MSG.? Canada has just outlawed all natural remedies. It may become so blatant that O’Brien will wake up soon.
