Uri Avnery Likes Chuck Hagel – A Fellow Combat Vet
Will the new sheriff in town – take the bullies down?
Will the Jewish Bullies Intimidate Congress and Humiliate America Again?
…by Jim W. Dean, VT Editor …featuring Uri Avnery
Sgt. Hagel in Vietnam
I had been expecting a Uri piece on Hagel. All the usual components were there, like a chance to expose the American Israeli Lobby for the disloyal Americans they are.
Oh, you think that is nasty? Ask the state department to give you the statistics of young Jews who serve in the American military versus those that go into the IDF. Ask Jewish parents which they would prefer. But call me first to make a bet so we can arrange a third party to hold the money.
The traditional Lobby is losing steam. Endless years of calling everybody from the milkman to the pool boy anti-semites has worn a little thin. Their bullying is not even done with finesse anymore. It is delivered Russian mob style, bluntly.
I spotted the continuing shift initially when Abe Foxman was quoted with his very measured and prepared words that Hagel would not have been his first choices but he respected the President’s prerogative to pick his cabinet. Billy Cristol had led the charge, but that is what Israeli media Intel assets are supposed to do. It’s their job.
I expected to see some of the older ones in attack mode, those with careers over, established safety nets, and expecting to be gone anyway soon with the grim reaper. Elliott Abrams seems to have drawn the short stick.
Abrams has a very shady reputation in the Intel community despite his Council of Foreign Relations cover. It’s a very incestuous organization which most all of our CIA directors and Pentagon chiefs enjoy their rites of passage along side Israel’s most up and coming penetration choices. They often end up serving side by side.
Elliott Abrams – American Jewish Council, Heritage Foundation, Hudson Institute, Project for a New American Century
Abrams claim to fame was the Iran Contra scandal where we were selling TOW missiles to Iran, after Rumsfeld had given Saddam chemical weapons to field test on Iranians.
Doing the post Iraq invasion period, some of these chemical weapons were found buried and created a buzz that the WMD had finally been found, until the American manufacturer markings were reported to be on them. They were quietly removed and disposed of.
John McCain and South Carolina’s Lindsey Graham were the first and most eager to bend over and grab a fence rail to once again show their loyalty to Israel.
The Intelligence community, which is well aware of the deep penetrations of Israeli Intel into capital hill, just cringes at this overt willingness to put their allegiance to Israel on display. But AIPAC demands prostration…to put on a show to get the dough.
All of them, each and every political hooker that serves Israel is not fit to spend another day here, but alas they have their hooks in deep and it will take a hell of a lot of work to get rid of them. The only easy way would be to get all the classified Intel we have on their moonlighting for Israel released, but alas there is no place to go to have them prosecuted.
Veterans Today could fill a hotel in DC with counter intel people who have chased Israeli spies who ended up in Congressional offices or meeting sources at the White house, who were then pulled off the cases and turned all their material in. They make copies of everything first though, just in case the climate changes, and it is.
Eventually a coalition of Jews and non Jews will form to throw the traitor bums out. We already have such here at VT and it works well, lots of talent and lots of sources, but no sheriffs who want to clean the town up yet. Maybe they are still in college.
But now it’s time for the usual wonderful Uri piece to let him get a few licks in, which he does so well. Enjoy them while we have him, which we hope will be a long long time.

Chucke Hagel (r) with his brother – Vietnam
Welcome, Chuck …by Uri Avnery January 12, 2013
Uri in the Siani – 1948
I FIND Chuck Hagel eminently likeable. I am not quite certain why.
Perhaps it’s his war record. He was decorated for valor in the Vietnam War (which I detested). He was a mere sergeant. Since I was a mere corporal in our 1948 war, I find it elating to see a non-commissioned officer become Minister of Defense.
Like so many veterans who have seen war from close up (myself included), he has become an enemy of war. Wonderful.
NOW Hagel is violently attacked by all the neocon warmongers, almost none of whom has ever heard a bullet whistle in the wars to which they sent others, and the combined political regiments of the American Jewish establishment.
His main sin seems to be that he objects to war against Iran. To be against an attack on Iran means to be anti-Israeli, anti-Semitic, indeed to wish for the destruction of Israel if not all Jews. Never mind that almost all present and past chiefs of the Israeli army and intelligence community object to an attack on Iran, too. But Binyamin Netanyahu knows better.
Last week, the former much-lauded chief of the Shin Bet painted a frightening picture of Binyamin Netanyahu and Ehud Barak at a security meeting to discuss the bombing of Iran some time ago. The two were in high spirits, puffing on cigars and drinking whiskey, much to the disgust of the assembled security chiefs. In Israel, cigars are considered an ostentatious luxury and drinking at work is taboo.
Netanyahu’s spin-doctors retorted that Winston Churchill, too, was a brandy drinker and smoked cigars. Seems that spirits and cigars are not enough to make a Churchill.
Actually, I think that the appointment of Hagel may come as a relief to Netanyahu. After years of depicting the Iranian nuclear bomb as the end of the world, or at least of Israel, the bomb is mysteriously absent from Netanyahu’s election campaign. Hagel’s appointment may allow Netanyahu to climb down from this tree altogether.
But the catalogue of Hagel’s crimes is much more extensive.
Many years ago he called the pro-Israeli lobby in Washington (would you believe it?) the “Jewish lobby”. Until then, it was understood that AIPAC is mainly composed of Buddhists and financed by Arab billionaires like Abu Sheldon and Abel al-Adelson.
Chuck Hagel
HOWEVER, HAGEL’S most heinous sin is not often mentioned. While serving as the Republican senator for Nebraska, he once uttered the unspeakable words: “I am an American senator, not an Israeli senator!”
That is really the crux of the matter.
US senators are nearly all Israeli senators. Ditto for US congressmen. Hardly any of them would dare to criticize the Israeli government on any issue, negligible as it may be. Criticizing Israel is political suicide.
Not only does the Jewish lobby use its huge resources to get loyal pro-Israelis elected and re-elected, but it openly employs these resources to unseat the few elected officials who dare to criticize Israel. They almost always succeed.
In the present election campaign, the Likud is showing again and again (and again) the scene of Netanyahu addressing the US congress. The senators and congressmen are seen wildly applauding after every single sentence, jumping up and down like children in gymnastics class. The text of the clip says: “When Netanyahu speaks, the world listens!”
A curiosity: right after this shameful scene, the clip shows Netanyahu addressing the UN General Assembly. Since the applause there was sparse – hardly anyone, other than Avigdor Lieberman and the other members of the Israeli delegation in the half-empty hall did applaud – the editors of the clip used a little trick: they took the applause from the US Congress and transferred it to the UN Assembly hall.
Somebody sent me a satirical piece saying that if Hagel’s appointment is not cancelled by the US Senate, Israel will have to use its veto power to block it. In such a case, the senate would have to muster a 90% majority to overcome the veto. If this fails, President Obama would have to choose another Defense Secretary from a list of three names provided by Netanyahu.
Jokes aside, the Israeli defense establishment is not worried by the Hagel appointment. They seem to know him as quite receptive to Israeli requests. Several Israeli generals have already come to his defense.
THIS WHOLE episode might be considered trivial, or even funny, were it not for the question: Why did President Obama put forward this controversial figure in the first place?
Romney in Cuba with Maria
An obvious answer is: Revenge. Obama is a master of controlling his emotions. During all the months of Netanyahu supporting Mitt Romney, Obama did not react. But his anger must have been building up inside.
Now the time has come. Appointing Hagel and openly humiliating the pro-Israel lobby was one way. More of this can be expected to come. Any slight nudge from America is bound to be felt by Israel as a heavy blow.
By the way, this blow could be used by the opposition parties here to to expose Netanyahu’s rank incompetence. Supporting Romney was plain stupid.
All the more so as Netanyahu, who was raised in the US, depicts himself as an expert on US affairs. But no party dares to raise this subject in our election campaign, for fear of being considered less than super-patriotic.
I don’t expect President Obama to change the US treatment of Israel in the near future, beyond some small punitive acts like this one. But when we raise our eyes towards the horizon, the picture looks different.
There is already a marked difference between Obama I and Obama II. When he was elected the first time, he chose Chas Freeman, a highly respected diplomat, to head the National Security Council. The pro-Israel lobby raised a storm, and the appointment was withdrawn. Obama then preferred public humiliation to a confrontation with the lobby. How different this time!
This change may well become more marked in Obama’s second term and far beyond. The lobby’s stranglehold on Washington DC is loosening, slightly, slowly, but significantly.
Why?
I believe that one of the reasons is that the perception of the American Jewish community is changing. American politicians are beginning to realize that Jewish voters are far from unanimously behind the lobby.
American Jewish “leaders”, almost all of them self-appointed and representing nobody but a small clique of professional representatives, as well as the Israeli embassy and some right-wing billionaires, do not control the Jewish vote.
This became clear when Netanyahu supported Romney. The great majority of Jewish voters continued to support Obama and the Democratic Party.
Gosh – who would not want to have neighbors like this?
This is not a sudden development. For years now, American Jews – especially young Jews – have distanced themselves from the Zionist establishment.
Becoming more and more disillusioned with official Israeli policy, alienated by the occupation, disgusted with the pictures of Israeli soldiers beating up helpless Palestinians, they have quietly dropped away.
Quietly, because they fear an anti-Semitic backlash. Jews are indoctrinated from early childhood that “we Jews have to stick together” in face of the anti-Semites.
Only a few brave American Jews are ready to openly – though ever so timidly – criticize Israel. But US politics are slowly adjusting to the fact that much of the lobby’s strength is bluff, and that most American Jews don’t let Israel determine their voting pattern.
AMERICANS MUST be a race of angels – how else to explain the incredible patience with which they suffer the fact that in a vital sphere of US interests, American policy is dictated by a foreign country.
For five decades, at least, US Middle East policy has been decided in Jerusalem. Almost all American officials dealing with this area are, well, Jewish. The Hebrew-speaking American ambassador in Tel Aviv could easily be the Israeli ambassador in Washington. Sometimes I wonder if in meetings of American and Israeli diplomats, they don’t sometimes drop into Yiddish.
I have warned many times that this can’t go on forever. Sooner or later real anti-Semites – a disgusting breed – will exploit this situation to gain legitimacy. The hubris of AIPAC bears poisonous fruit.
Since Israel is dependent on US support in almost every sphere – from the UN Security Council to the battlefields of future wars – this is a real existential danger.
Perhaps the lobby is becoming alert to this danger. In the present affair, their voice is remarkably subdued. They don’t want to stand out.
Ze’ev Jabotinsky – Father of Militant Zionism
THE SADDEST part of the story is that all these false “friends of Israel” in the US Congress and media are not really embracing “Israel”.
They are embracing the Israeli right-wing, including the extreme and even fascist right-wing. They are, thereby, helping the right-wing to tighten their control over our country.
American policy plays a major role in the agony of the Israeli peace camp, which is so manifest in the present election campaign.
Just one example: the huge settlement effort now in process, which makes the two-state peace solution more and more difficult to implement, is financed by American Jews who funnel their donations through tax-free organizations. Thus the US government in practice finances the settlements, which it officially condemns as illegal.
Since the 19th century, newspapers have got used to abbreviating their reports by saying “France protests” and “Germany declares” when they mean “the French government protests” and “the German government declares”.
Thus the media today write that “Israel” promotes the settlements, when in actual fact it is the Israeli government which does so. Several respected recent polls prove that most Israelis want peace based on the two-state solution, which is undermined by our government on a daily basis.
BACK TO Senator Hagel: the Israeli government and the “friends of Israel” will do anything to undermine his appointment.
Speaking for myself, I hope that his appointment will herald a new American policy – a policy of support for a sober, rational, liberal, secular, democratic Israel, striving for peace with the Palestinian people.

Stephen, You can always email me directly about comment problems. There is no need to take up our readers valuable reading time with admin trivia. In the future I will erase any whiney comments you are making, as rather than contact us directly like a 95% of folks do, you spammed this article so you would have our readers to do your cry baby routine.

I’m an attorney so I already have a pleading ready to file against you based on quantum meruit. Only, I’m suing you for a BBQ. I have a feeling that with several generations of American family you are a grill master -_-
Will URI care to comment on the 2 videos about NYPD stopping and arresting 2 men with a Van full of explosives, with a mural of a plane diving into the “Twin-Towers” then blowing up. Then setting off the explosives in the van,… caught red-handed, but sent back (free of charge, and charges) to Israel along with dozens more Mossad Agents?
Here’s a qutoe from the article and the video link below, at http://truedemocracyparty.net/ The videos are among the most censored in the history of the ‘Net .
. “The trucks and vans were most likely all from the Mossad front ‘urban MOving SystemS incorporAteD’. The same Mossad front run by one Dominic Suter which received a one-time gov’t grant of almost $500,000 right before 9/11.
Now ask yourself this: Why is a little Jewish moving company in New Jersey getting a government grant for half a million dollars?
And why did Dominic Suter flee to the Jewish state right after 9/11?
I feel I can also can say with some certainty that it was very likely one of the many, many Israeli “Art Students” (just some other Jewish spies arrested in America and Canada) who painted the mural on that truck.”

Allesandro, I went ahead and cleared this comment, but it has nothing to do with the article.
We are trying to assure our busy readers, whose limited reading time we greatly respect, that they will find comments in an article comment section that have something to do with the article. If we don’t do this we have people posting whatever they want to here, which is not fair to the readers.
So please to try to keep comments related to the article please. It makes the comment section more valuable to our readers. Thanks to all for helping us out on this.
Why would Uri want to comment on this? It has never been on of his writing topics as he is too far away and devotes his time to a whole list of other things.
It’s been pretty well covered by G. Duff…Chris Bollyn and a dozen other people….It’s all been covered the problem is making the necessary changes in our foreign policy in lieu of such treachery….That’s even more important than hanging D. Suter….though I wouldn’t mind seeing that..
Amen, When the tenth anniversary was done and not even the family members were protesting the event because there still had not been a real investigation, part 2 of the story was over.
It put the rest of us at risk because now they have a template that shows they can do it again and it will be even easier to not have testimony under oath. I still have to pinch myself to believe it. None of the main orgs lifted a finger, not the Vets, the police unions, federal workers, etc.
It kind of gave you the idea that we were a defeated people.
I think the recent assassinations of two pro-gun bigshots by the minions of Dianne Feinstein and Chuckie Shumer, John Noveske and Keith Radliffe, might just be a game-changer.
They just declared war on US, AGAIN….. but this time, the real patriots won’t take it lightly because it’s now THEIR ass that the Jews are after. And they’re not about to give up their firepower without a BIG fight.
Mr. Dean,
Thank you for allowing Allesandro’s comment, sir!
At first glance, it does seem provocative and off topic, but if you credit her intelligence, as I do, I find her post to actually be quite spot on to the larger issue.
Lets’ face it, Israel, and the Jewish lobby has a lot to answer for. The Nomination of Mr. Hagel is a step in the right direction for addressing this, and everyone who isn’t completely mislead and misinformed is ready for this action to take place. I believe Alessandro is speaking for all of us when she is challenging the assumption that Israel, and Israelis, want peace of any kind. It does bear immediately significant, the position of dissident Israelis on 911, because 911 was indeed the singularity, the one event that launched the U.S. police state, wars for hegemony, and the transformation of the world into a place where the seats of power became more vicious and more rapacious.
We know about the arrests, sir, and the 5 dancing Israelis, and the bombs, and the fake moving companies, and the infamous words of Larry Silverstein declaring the decision to “pull the building”.
Sir, I respectfully submit that Allesandro was well within her right to demand a response on 911 by Mr, Avnery.
Again, salutations for publishing her comment and links.
Just imagine how much better of the world would be without israhell.
If Israel has so many peace loving people, why did large crowds pull up chairs to watch the massacre in GAZA or vote favorably for the attacks? Or are the polls totally rigged.
Why do they have little kids signing Bombs and Artillary shells destined to kill thousands in GAZA?.
What’s URI think about abolishing the FED and other Central Banks run by the “Tribe” that have led to the oppression, death and destruction of so many, and so much, around the world.
They signed the bombs that hit the apt bldgs in S. Beirut also…” If you can’t beat ‘em, kill their wives and kids and grandparents..” Gotta love Talmudia…God..what are you waiting for?
Excellent questions
On a related subject, “Lew” is set-up to lead the U.S. Treasury. What?
Just what we need, another “Tribe-Member” at the helm of finance.
It reminds me of every time we hear about a HUGE settlement, like the payout to 9/11 families OR the Gulf Coast Oil spill,..why do we always get the SAME “Jew” Ken Fienberg, to hand out the money, and get people (victims) to sign away their rights? I think I answered my own question.
You may want to consider how many who DIDN’T sign the 9/11 settlement, and who intended to fight it, ended up dead, along with key witnesses in NYC that day.
BTW, does URI ever comment on the leading role Israel, and “Jews” played in 9/11? If not this is like half a hand-job. How’s that for an analogy.
Franklin Ryckaert, well spoken. What an asinine debate we are pulled into. Israel is slowly murdering her prisoners in front of the world, USA is her banana republic, and this article is at best minutiae. Obama is upset that Netanyahu backed Romney, who “lost”? No. Romney was slotted to magically oust Paul, the only statesman left in DC, and even he will not speak about 911 or private Jewish ownership of the Reserve.
What is this story today, that Jews are waking up to the Zionist menace and will therefore do… what? Stop raping the financial world through Wall Street, or nationalize the bank? Absurd. This essay describes a split in Jewish ranks beneath discussion, and pretends Jewish control is slipping here. When it truly does, a thousand things will happen like an avalanche, and people will go to prison. Until it does, we must read between the lines even on this site. If Mr. Hagel is half of what people hope he is, great.
Israel’s only purpose is to provoke, incite, and offend, a tinderbox designed to cause goyim to murder each other en masse. When USA is no longer a Jewish WMD it will be obvious.
I wrote both of my Sens….I told Sen Burke that Sen Hagel would put US interests and security before that of any alleged ally…I hope my point was well-taken…It probably wasn’t..
Uri Avnery, the sanest guy in Israel today, it seems.
Abrams was also known for his cute denial that a slaughter of over 700 civilians at El Mozote by the rampaging Atlacatl battalion happened – now where have we heard that one before?
Btw what are those unusual berets the Hagels were sporting in Vietnam? Looks like something out of the Foreign Legion or some Scots regiment maybe.
Dear folks, Steven’s post got caught up in the spam folder as he fired a bunch in at one time, which triggers it. As we have a volunteer staff doin this comment section, just a couple of people, and they also write, edit, work with sources, run their defense industry and other businesses…checking out the spam folder is something that is done intemittently. In Steve’s case this happened while most were sleeping.
In the future if you see perfectly normal comments not showing up, it will be because we cannot work 24 hours a day, they are just waiting to be cleared, or the spam filter has picked them up. The staff page tab on the front page lets you access us for an email…so just send one and we will look into it.
Playing the discriminated victim is not necessary. Almost everyone understands this…almost. Thanks, Jim
One would think that getting Kerry the elder as SoS would be enough. Far from his principled politics of his youth, he discovered his Jewish grandparents and surpassed Hillary in his exclamations of support of Israel.
Hagel is a test. Sure would be nice with some semblance of rationality after decades of ideological propaganda. Against the odds…
Hubris will be their downfall.
Uri, you’re right to point out the cracks in ranks, the subtle dissent is there. Whether it’s tactically motivated to avoid backlash, or just based on humanism and fairness, the faint voices from Jewish friends opposing actions in Gaza in December were heard.
Here’s to hope that they too liberate themselves from the mind prisons of fear and withdraw their support of the psychopaths and bullies. It would go a long way to make this system of lies and oppression crumble when people embrace universal humanism and “Love thy neighbor”.
Cheers
The power of the Jewish (not : “Zionist”) Lobby in American politics is mainly based on bribery and bluffing. It is essentially a Wizard of Oz phenomenon. It requires only some courage of a critical mass of influential people who dare to speak out to overcome it. Crucial is not to be afraid of the “anti-Semitic” smear. Besides, what is an “anti-Semite” really? If criticizing Jewish criminal behavior is “anti-Semitic” then all decent people should be anti-Semitic. On closer inspection that has nearly always been the case. From Tacitus and Cicero in Antiquity to father Coughlin and Paul Findley in modern times, it has always been criticism of Jewish misbehavior, rather than prejudice or malice that caused people to become “anti-Semites”. “Anti-Semites” are not a “disgusting breed” as Uri Avneri would have it, they are the cream of the world. Criticism of criminal tribal behavior is a sign of moral nobility.
They’ve overplayed their “hand” to the point where the “anti-Semite” smear is worn as a badge of honor by any real American with half a brain.
Lies have a funny way of betraying themselves.
Hagel sure is a sight for sore eyes. Fantastic article Jim! I’m curious to your thoughts on the new head at the cia?
That is a bit of a trick question because you have to ask ‘which one?’
With all the outsourcing beyond the reach of Congress, I don’t even know what his real reach could be. And then you have the big multinationals and the trillion dollar bank folks, they have had their own ‘CIA type’ capacities for many years now, all the tech stuff but minus the satellites, naval battle groups and hardware they don’t need.
But they do have access to all the WoT special ops vets coming out of the service, trained at a huge taxpayer expense and now on the open market where the bad guys can pay more than anybody else. There literally is a huge army, several divisions of these people floating around and available for work.
If the CIA has been doing anything to protect us from the Israelis it has all been on the QT. Back in the heyday of Reagan and the Marine Beruit days, for cover for US intervention was blocking Soviet influence in Lebanon, which was a hoax.
I had a long interview with Jerry Levin, the CNN chief there that Hezbollah snatched. He told me that Lebanese counterintel was killing Soviet agents daily, and just dumping their bodies on the street to let everyone know how unwelcome they were, and it got so bad that the municipla department had special trucks assignment to get them all picked up as early as possible so the public did not have to see them.
He also told me that it was widely known at the time that the Marine barracks were hit in retaliation for the New Jersey shelling the Muslim artillery positions in the Shuff Mtns (sp?) with their 16″ guns. Infortunately their accuracy was over stated and they killed a batch of civilians, some entire families.
Revenge killing had always been a big thing in those parts. Americans are always told that these things are done for no reason because our minders figured ‘how the hell are we going to know any better’, which was the case…at the time.
Thanks Jim. I see what your saying about the extent of the mercenarys.
I have a close friend who’s dad was in the s.a.s.. he passed away years ago and it was then that they inherited all of his personal letters. To my friends surprise it turned out that during the eighties he was involved in operations in central America! Was a surprise to everyone.
Thanks jim
A lot of that work was very unpleasant. ‘Eliminating opposition’…political opposition, included civilian infrastructure support.
When we ‘did Iran’ we attacked transporation, buses and trains…to randomly kill civilians of every size, shape and kind…to have the rest screaming for ‘better protection’. This trick has been used over and over.
We have someone here at VT that did some consulting work in Africa a year ago. The Israels were bidding on security work. He warned them that they would start their own terror campaign and then offer to ‘clean up the terrorists’ for x amount of dough.
He even told them what the first tagert would be as it was wide open. It was truck bombed within a month.
Those Marine barracks were bombed by the Mossad but even though you and Hagal kno that they still want to “Support Israel.” Anyway why should we even have Marines in Beruit? Or any other place in the Middle East. If the jewish owned oil companies want to steal middle eastern oil let them fend for themselves. We don’t even need them because private American Oil can get enough right from our oun lands to do without them. Just take wahtever equippment they have and use it. Just take what those jews stole from us back and just say yeah but can you kick my ass? That would settle it.
The Hagel nomination is interesting, some powerful Jewish people complain he is not pro-Israel enough, however unidentified U.S. government sources claim he is in favor of international sanctions against Iran, if so then perhaps he is controlled by the Israeli Lobby via blackmail or another path.
If he doesn’t get confirmed there’s a good possibility Netanyahu via blackmail forced Obama to nominate him for the position. Why would Netanyahu do this? Israeli prime ministers get a lot of praise from Israelis when they force the U.S. senate to reject a person nominated for a high position who opposes Israel.
My guess is if he gets the position Hagel will dine on Gefilte fish with Israeli elites and express his outrage about the danger of rock throwing Palestinians teenagers. I hope I’m wrong.
Yeah I figured that Obama wouldn’t really hire a real Patriotic American. Another so proud “Combat Vetran” the worst traitors in America because he was eilling to go kill a bunch of peasant rice farmers in Vietnam made him a hero.
