US F16S AND TAXPAYERS DOLLARS KILLING INNOCENT PEOPLE IN GAZA

Los Angeles, 3 Shawwal 1435/30 July 2014 (MINA) – Press TV has conducted an interview with James Morris, political commentator, Los Angeles about Israel’s offensive on Gaza since July 8 with little to no condemnation by Western governments, according to Press TV report monitored by Mi’raj Islamic News Agency (MINA).

The following is an approximate transcript of the interview.

Press TV: For most of the first week or ten days the international community remained complexly silent.

Let’s rewind to 2008, 2009 Operation Cast Lead where 22 days of attacks on the Gaza Strip left 1,500 people dead. Many analysts believed that that would never happen again – that the world would sit idly by while Israel would attack Gaza for 22 days straight – It’s Day 21 now, literally one day away from Cast Lead and it happened again.

Morris: Yes. And what we’re looking at is something that may even be worse than Cast Lead and I hope that doesn’t happen, my condolences to the families of Palestinians in Gaza who have suffered and endured this Israeli onslaught, the latest chapter of it with Operation Protective Edge.

It’s heartbreaking to an American like myself who knows that that would not be happening in Gaza if it wasn’t for American F-16s, American-provided ordinance, and billions and billions of US taxpayer dollars as US states and cities go broke – bankrupted in the case of Detroit.

To your point with the UN, it just shows as Mr. Dean has conveyed as well, the reach of international Zionism , especially the Jewish lobby influence in Great Britain with the Labor friends of Israel and the Conservative Friends of Israel that influences the Tory Party specifically James Cameron.

I think you saw that with the replacement of the recent Foreign Minister Hague – he has been replaced by Philip Hammond. What Mr. Hague had said – and I was no fan of him either – but what he had said was it is “disproportionate” what is going on with Israel and with the Palestinians or words to that effect. And he was replaced by Philip Hammond who, one of the first things he did is fly to Israel to make amends.

We have to go back to what the whole agenda is here and that goes back to what I’ve talked about before on Press TV and that ‘s not only the Zionist Jewish lobby influence in the Western countries like in Great Britain…

In France you’ve got Bernhard-Henri Levy an influential Jewish gentleman who was all for the bombing of Syria for Israel and also is supporting what’s happening in Gaza now with the French keeping silent. You’ve got a Jewish foreign minister there, Laurent Fabius.

And then you come over to the United States. We’ve got AIPAC (the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee) the neo-Conservatives, which are the upper echelon of that same Israeli lobby that has so much influence here.

But let’s go to the wider picture what’s happening…. You’ve got the Unity government where actually an agreement had been signed back in April and the Netanyahu government was against that because they knew… and there’s an article about this appearing at my America-hijacked.com site.

That unity agreement between Hamas and Fatah, the PLO was signed back in April and immediately the Netanyahu went to work undermining it.

And the reason they did that is because… Netanyahu talks a good game about the two-state solution – which is basically dead from my perspective. It should be a one-state solution, a democratic state and all of Palestine; but the bottom line is he went to work undermining that; put the Israeli lobby in the US to get the Congress to undermine Hamas.

I believe the US had gone along with cutting off payments to public workers in Gaza. The Obama government to their credit did not shun the unity government so what ended up happening is Israel broke the 2012 ceasefire by cutting off the fishing rights of the Gaza fishermen. They restricted the limits from 6 miles to 3 miles and then announced that they had built 3,300 new housing starts in the West Bank. And that obviously prompted retaliatory rocket fire from Hamas.

Press TV: The Israeli prime minister has admitted that a high number of civilians have been killed in Israeli attacks on Gaza, but he also in addition to that first of all he blames Hamas for the civilian death toll and then he stressed that Tel Aviv will never concede its security for the sake of public opinion.

The blatant disregard they have for the international push specifically the worldwide demonstrations to get them to stop doubles up that claim, doesn’t it?

Morris: Yes and you also have to see what happened with the video that’s just come out of the UN compound in Gaza being struck by Israel – Israel is now admitting that they had struck it; but they are denying that they are responsible for the deaths and said that it’s going to be investigated.

Well, we’ve heard about their Israeli investigations going all the way back to the USS Liberty and Rachel Corrie – an American activist murdered in Gaza.

Regarding Mr. Dean’s point with the protests as well… what we see is that Israel is able to get away with this not only because of the Israel lobby influence in America, which I mentioned AIPAC the American Israeli Public Affairs Committee, neo-Conservatives and other entities associated with the Israel lobby, the ADL and similar that you’ve got the grand plan in the Middle East to look at.

The Zionist plan, which is based on the Israeli Likudnik ‘Oded Yinon’. And what that was was to basically have ethnical strife in Syria, in Iraq, in Lebanon so then Israel could have its way with the Palestinians and ethnically cleanse them off their land.

And that’s what you see happening, you see the Israeli Oded Yinon plan unfolding in the Middle East. Again, it was targeting any regime that supported the Palestinians – we see that with Iraq and Saddam Hussein, the Iraq war was nothing to do about oil. China got most of the oil actually. It was all about Israel and cutting off support for the Palestinians.

And so the remaining regimes that support the Palestinians are obviously the Syrian regime of Assad; and Iran. And that’s where the Zionists are putting their energy and their focus, they want to cut off that support so the Palestinians will eventually give up hope and be ethnically transferred off to either Jordan and surrounding countries.

But you also have to come back to the direct effect that this has on America.

You saw again officials on CNN today, a former military advisor… and he said what’s happening in Gaza with US support for Israel against the Palestinians is radicalizing Muslims not only in Gaza, but also in other Arab Muslim countries, in Syria, which is the direct result of the neo-Con Oded Yinon plan as well I just mentioned in Syria and in Iraq with ISIS; and he said that will come back to result in possible and more than likely terror attacks in the US.

We’ve already seen that with the underwear bomber and al-Qaeda of the Arabian Peninsula AQAP – their motivation was to attack America because what Israel had done during Cast Lead back in 2008,2009 when Obama fell silent because of influence from Jewish donor in America – and that’s outrageous!
