They must be getting desperate at the Wall Street Journal.
You can see why that is in an editorial they titled: “Iran Sanctions Showdown”
and subtitled: “Obama plays rough with Democrats who want to stiffen diplomacy.”
Published on January 17, 2014, it is in this editorial that they committed the
serious error of basing their presentation on a short text that was twittered
by President Rouhani of Iran .
Having seen what sort of mistake can happen when a simple word
such as “reset” is translated into Russian, having seen what can happen when an
English website on healthcare is translated into Spanish, and having themselves
corrected the Farsi translation once made by CNN, you would think that the
editors of the Journal will be careful enough not to rely on something as
flimsy as the translation of a tweet to build their case. And yet, that's what
they did while recommending to the senators who are looking into the subject of
sanctions on Iran
that they should keep the Rouhani tweet in mind and not blink.
Starting at this point, the editors build a case that is the
same old case, and where the bulk of the arguments is but a rehash of the same
old arguments. In fact, all pertinent subjects were debated in most publications
around the world, including the pages of the Wall Street Journal and this
website. And this makes it pointless to take up the same arguments again. But
there are a few new elements in the current Journal editorial that merit
further discussion.
One of these elements was stated in the editorial as
follows: “Meanwhile, the sanctions regime has already started to crack … A
French commercial delegation will visit Iran next month, looking for
business opportunities to exploit as the sanctions break down.” And no one
doubts where the Russian and the Chinese stand on this matter. There is also
the fact that doing business is the paramount concern of the Germans. Thus, it
stands to reason that if the Congress commits an act as idiotic as to impose
new sanctions on Iran
while the negotiations are ongoing, the P5+1 alliance will break up. This will
leave America
standing alone, and most likely, holding the Jewish bag of infamy.
Is that what the Jewish lobby wants? Yes it is. People like
Bolton, Stephens, Prager, May, Krauthammer and others make no secret of their
desire to maintain America
in a permanent state of war against the whole world if need be. And they want
the war to last till such time that a complete victory is achieved even though
they don't know what that victory will look like or should look like. But they
know what will come after it as a result of it.
In fact, the Jews believe that a final outcome will result
from the struggles of life; an outcome that has already been determined and
fully fleshed out in the Old Testament. They believe that there will be some
kind of confrontation called Armageddon at the end of which the Messiah – they
have been waiting for since the beginning of time – will appear in all his
glory, and will transfer to them the control of his Dominion. And that Dominion
will include all of us non-Jewish human beings – to be their personal property.
Knowledge of the Jewish intentions, and the fact that the
Israelis have threatened to start something stupid in the Middle East so as to
put themselves in danger, and thus force America to come to the rescue, is what
has prompted the formation of a consensus by all concerned, to the effect that
the purpose behind getting the Congress to legislate new sanctions, is to push
America into another Middle Eastern war. Of course, there are people who deny
this idea but nobody believes them because they are the ones who most
vociferously advocate the bombing of Iran .
