Gareth Porter and the New World Order

…by Jonas E. Alexis, Mark Dankof, and E. Michael Jones

Jonas E. Alexis: I read Gareth Porter’s book, Manufactured Crisis: The Untold Story of the Iran Nuclear Scare, in 2015. It is based on solid documentation. Porter writes quite eloquently that the United States and Israel “manufactured the [Iran] crisis quite deliberately, in order to maximize pressure on Iran to give up its nuclear program.”[1] This manufactured crisis, says Porter, came from the desk of the Israeli Mossad.

Porter is a historian[2] and we should all commend him to take that step. He also argues that “virtually nothing about the nuclear scare over Iran that was reported in the Western news media was what it seemed.” The Western news media, he continued, has a history of demonizing Iran. Not only that, the “US-Israeli strategy was aimed at using the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) to build a case that Iran’s nuclear program had been merely a cover for a nuclear weapons program.”[3]

In short, Manufactured Crisis historically shows that Israeli officials constantly demonized Iran and concocted deliberate lies in order to perpetuate the idea that Iran is an enemy of the West. It has no basis factual basis whatever.

Yet Porter started to engage in character assassination. It is obvious that he and the Jewish Voice for Peace have called people like Mark Dankof anti-Semites. They have also demonized Alison Weir because she was “associated” with Dankof? Why can’t a good journalist like Porter tell the truth and nothing but the truth? Why does he have to summon weird things like that?

Mark Dankof: Alison Weir’s alleged support for the Gareth Porter/BuzzFeed/ADL broadside of Mark Glenn and the New Horizons Conference in Iran boomeranged when she herself was broadsided by Jewish Voice for Peace (JVP). In that broadside, Ms. Weir was slandered for her association with me, which is absolutely nonexistent, save for a single appearance on my radio show some years ago.

As Dr. E. Michael Jones pointed out in his article on this entire business in the December 2014 Culture Wars entitled, “The New New World Order,” the universe seems to revolve around the “Jewish control of narrative” and the demonization and character assassination of anyone offering a dissent from their mantra. Gilad Atzmon reiterates this in his own observations on the JVP assault on Ms. Weir.

The Jewish control of narrative and the demonization of anyone who disputes that ground rule is quite obvious in the JVP chastisement of Ms. Weir for ever being associated with me in any capacity. Why?

It is clear why. I have talked in the public forum repeatedly about subjects considered off limits to these people. These include the provable Jewish Bolshevik KGB link to FDR, Operation Snow, and Pearl Harbor;[4] the Lavon Affair;[5] the Meyer Lansky connection to the Kennedy Assassination;[6] Israel’s deliberate attack on the USS Liberty 48 years ago;[7] the Pollard and AIPAC spy cases; the PROMIS affair; Jewish power in Central Banking, the Federal Reserve Board and the media; Israel’s connection to 9-11; Israel’s alliance with Saudi Arabia and the United States in covertly supporting Sunni Wahhabic extremists in al-Qaeda, al-Nusra, and ISIS in Syria and elsewhere;[8] Israel’s dual citizens and front companies who permeate American intelligence, the Transportation Safety Administration, and the Department of Homeland Security; the number of Israeli dual citizens in the United States Congress and throughout the American government and media nexus; and perhaps most significantly of all, the disproportionately Jewish support for the Culturally Marxist agenda of American and Western culture via the Frankfurt School,[9] a point fully acknowledged publicly by no less than the current Vice President of the United States.

Gilad Atzmon argues that the Jewish neo-Marxist left is even more toxically lethal to Palestinian rights and the Western world than its demonic counterpart in the Likudnik Right. I agree. And the Jewish Voice for Peace backstabbing of Alison Weir, much like the nefarious Gareth Porter/BuzzFeed hit on Mark Glenn and the New Horizons Conference last fall in Iran, proves it.

There are two pivotal questions remaining to be answered. First, in consideration of the issue of Hegelian dialectic and “controlled opposition” in that matrix, how many of these Jewish Peaceniks and Leftists are controlled opposition working for Israeli and American intelligence?  Second, how have the Palestinians and pro-Palestinian peace activists fared in having their interests represented by Jewish leftists and neo-Marxists claiming to represent them in negotiations headed toward a “two-state solution?”

The era of “Jewish control of discourse” is ending. Let’s all have fun watching their panicked struggle before merciful and final expiration.

Gareth Porter was officially sponsored by Jewish Voice for Peace at a speaking event 5 months before the BuzzFeed-Reza Montazemi-New Horizons Conference Waltz in Iran.  Could it be? Hmmmmm.  . . .

Jonas E. Alexis: You have posited noncontroversial facts here. Haaretz even published an article saying that the Israelis knew very well that the USS Liberty was an American ship,[10] but they bombed it anyway because they wanted to blame the act on Egypt. Phillip F. Nelson, author of Remember the Liberty!,

“quotes a story reported by former U.S. Ambassador to Lebanon Dwight Porter, who recounted a conversation between an Israeli pilot and the Israel Air Force war room, which was allegedly picked up by an NSA aircraft and inadvertently cabled to CIA offices around the world:

“Israeli pilot to IDF war room: This is an American ship. Do you still want us to attack?

“IDF war room to Israeli pilot: Yes, follow orders.

“Israeli pilot to IDF war room: But sir, it’s an American ship – I can see the flag!

“IDF war room to Israeli pilot: Never mind; hit it.”[11]

The next time a New World Order puppet tells you that Israel is a great ally to the United States, just respond by saying, “What have you been smoking lately?” E. Michael Jones wrote an entire article on the Gareth Porter issue in 2014. Here are some excerpts from that article.

E. Michael Jones: Gareth Porter is every conference organizer’s worst nightmare. Author of Manufactured Crisis: The Untold Story of the Iran Nuclear Scare (Charlottesville Virginia: Just World Books, 2014), Porter explained in his book on how the Mossad, through its Iranian proxy, the MEK, fabricated lies about the intent of Iran’s nuclear program.

The book was recently translated into Farsi and was being promoted by the Iranian government, which was avidly seeking an agreement with the United States on its nuclear program, one which would mean the lifting of economic sanctions, which would mean better days for the Iranian economy. It would also mean closer ties to the West, which the Obama administration was planning to exploit, via increased sales of oil and gas to Europe, as part of the economic war that it is currently waging on Russia.

The Anglo-American manipulation of Iran as a way of thwarting Russian ambitions was always known as “the Great Game,” and the high stakes hand that the Obama administration was playing at this moment, which involved a nuclear agreement and an end to economic sanctions, was no exception to the rule.

Gareth Porter was no stranger to the Great Game either. His article on the Mossad disinformation campaign against Iran appeared in Foreign Policy, the flagship journal of the Council of Foreign Relations, the Rockefeller-funded think tank that had a monopoly on foreign policy from the time FDR destroyed America First in the days immediately following Pearl Harbor until the 2003 Iraq War, when the Neoconservative faction took over American foreign policy and started running it as an adjunct of the Likudnik Party in Israel.

The CFR crowd has been longing to regain control of America’s foreign policy ever since the debacle in Iraq. Now, with the emergence of a new Left-wing Jewish lobby, known as J Street, which proved itself as a viable alternative to AIPAC when it defeated that group’s Iranian sanctions bill in January 2014, it looked as if the former WASP elite allied with the parvenu Left-wing Jews at J Street might pull off a dramatic change of direction in American foreign policy toward Iran, one which has been frozen in a kind of cold war ever since the Iranian Hostage crisis of 1979.

Porter’s book was part of this geopolitical shift in the tectonic plates of the globalist new world order. The shifting of the plates, however, did not mean that the plates ceased to exist. It just meant that they were poised to move into a new configuration. Aware that the new shift would not mean the arrival of the Millennium, or that the Jewish/American Lion was going to lie down with the Iranian lamb, Porter walked a fine line.

Porter knew that he would be lionized by Iranians grateful for a book that would hasten the lifting of economic sanctions, but he didn’t want to be lionized so much that he would be perceived by the CFR crowd as having gone native. As a result, Porter used his invitation to speak at the September 30 to October 1 New Horizons conference in Tehran to wheedle the list of other guests from conference organizer Reza Montazami.

With this information he proceeded to go through the list and single out certain individuals, who in his opinion should be uninvited. For some reason, the brunt of Porter’s wrath fell on Mark Glenn. In an e-mail from Porter to Montazami justifying Glenn’s ouster from the list of speakers, Porter quoted Glenn as saying that:

“Judaism is nobody’s friend, short of those few who profit from it, and they are certainly small in number, as we have already discussed. Whether these people are one of ‘God’s chosen’ who do the bidding of their overlord Rabbis or whether they are one of those lowly Gentile types who were created for the purpose of serving ‘God’s chosen’, it is the same–Judaism is not their friend.

“It works to no one’s real benefit, short of those at the top who are giving the marching orders. It does not belong in the same class with other faiths dedicated to improving the individual and making him or her more pleasing to the one responsible for all creation. It does not make people better, it makes them worse. It is like a highly radioactive element that can bring nothing but sickness and eventual death. It does not bring liberation but rather enslavement.

If Glenn had said “Zionism” instead of “Judaism,” he might have evaded—for a while, at least—the ire of the thought police, but the distinction is ultimately immaterial. Mr. Porter’s claim that he was shocked—shocked!—that someone at a conference in Tehran would say that “Judaism is not their friend” was about as convincing as Claude Rains’ claim that he was shocked to learn that gambling was going on in Rick’s Café Americain.

Why this should upset the organizers of a conference series at which then President Ahmadinejad allegedly (at least in the Jewish controlled press) said that Israel should be wiped off the face of the earth is anyone’s guess, but Montazami caved in to Porter’s demands and threw Mark Glenn under the bus. As a way of expressing his gratitude, Porter then denounced the conference as a hotbed of anti-Semites and conspiracy nuts, in language that could have been, and probably was, taken straight out of the ADL’s press release condemning the same conference.[12]
