Iraq Iran The U.S. Government Funded the Iranian Terrorist Group Which Found The Documents Upon Which the Warmongers Are Relying

 

The people pushing for war against Iran are the same neocons who pushed for war against Iraq. See this and this. (They planned both wars at least 20 years ago.)

The IAEA report being trumpted as a casus belli contains no new information, but is based on a re-hashing of old, debunked claims stemming from “laptop documents”.

Wikileaks documents reveal that the new IAEA head was heavily backed by the U.S., based upon his promises of fealty to the U.S.  Indeed, as we’ve seen in the nuclear energy arena, the IAEA is not a neutral, fact-based organization, but a wholly-captured, political agency.

27551 The U.S. Government Funded the Iranian Terrorist Group Which Found The Documents Upon Which the Warmongers Are Relying

But where did the documents come from originally?

As Gareth Porter noted in 2008:

The George W. Bush administration has long pushed the “laptop documents” – 1,000 pages of technical documents supposedly from a stolen Iranian laptop – as hard evidence of Iranian intentions to build a nuclear weapon. Now charges based on those documents pose the only remaining obstacles to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) declaring that Iran has resolved all unanswered questions about its nuclear programme.

But those documents have long been regarded with great suspicion by U.S. and foreign analysts. German officials have identified the source of the laptop documents in November 2004 as the Mujahideen e Khalq (MEK), which along with its political arm, the National Council of Resistance in Iran (NCRI), is listed by the U.S. State Department as a terrorist organisation.

Interestingly, the Bush Administration – and especially Dick Cheney – helped to fund the MEK (see confirming articles here and here).

And the New York Times, Washington Post and others are reporting that Rudy Giuliani, former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge, former national security adviser Fran Townsend and former Attorney General Michael Mukasey are supporting the MEK as well.

So the terrorist group which “found” the documents is funded by neoconservatives who want to overthrow Iran. What a coincidence!

And as Gareth Porter notes in the above-linked article, the Mossad may have created the documents in the first place:

There are some indications, moreover, that the MEK obtained the documents not from an Iranian source but from Israel’s Mossad.

 

One thing is clear: the U.S. and its allies have a long history of using forged documents as an excuse for war.

Thanks George. That IRAQ/N image is easily one of the most powerful ones I've seen about the whole subject. 

Edit: Found where it's from, http://www.henryjacksonsociety.org/, another website I've bookmarked.

Thanks George.  I had wondered where the evidence (or lack of it) came from.  Now I know.

Yes but all those weapons of mass destruction... I even bet Sadam shipped all his weapons to Iran and that's the reason nobody ever found one in Iraq.

So if we bomb the shit of the them twice, drain all the oil wells, take all the gold... we'll finally found out.... unless somebody else is next....

"War is good for the American economy."

Bush meeting with President Kirchner of Argentina, 2005.

But see:

"One of the more enduring myths in Western society is that wars are somehow good for the economy. Many people see a great deal of evidence to support this myth, after all World War II came directly after the Great Depression. This faulty belief stems from a misunderstanding of the economic way of thinking."

And then there is the Broken Window analogy:

https://secure.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/wiki/Parable_of_the_broken_window

The parable of the broken window was introduced by Frédéric Bastiat in his 1850 essay Ce qu'on voit et ce qu'on ne voit pas (That Which Is Seen and That Which Is Unseen) to illustrate why destruction, and the money spent to recover from destruction, is actually not a net-benefit to society. The parable, also known as the broken window fallacy or glazier's fallacy, demonstrates how opportunity costs, as well as the law of unintended consequences, affect economic activity in ways that are "unseen" or ignored.

Yup, but it has been damn good for China's economy, seeing as how they make all those American bullets (rounds we call them) expended in combat and practise, and all those other munitions for the military machine, and all those chips and digital electronics (computers, etc.) stuff, and all those biopharmaceuticals (some of which occasionally poison the patients), and how about all that derivatives processing they do????

They are not neoconservatives. They are just warmongers who have taken over the conservative movement.

No he described a fascist. Fascists gain power and stay in power through chaos and violence.

They (ab-)use the people they know the best: their own kind.

So, fascist jews use jews, fascist christians use christians etc etc...

They claim their "passion" comes from the love for their country, their people, their religion, but they mean the image of the country, the people, the religion that they have in their heads... In the end it's all about them and no-one else.

Because of the anonymity and potential to gain power fascists are always found in multinationals, politics, banks and media, where the ones devoid of emotions (for others) will rise to the top.

Welcome to the world we live in...

That was a very thoughtful post!  Dont forget, though, to include "Fascist Muslims use Muslims".  

Fascism is an equal opportunity employer!
