Let Them Scratch Their Own Backs


If you want to know what a cultural flesh eating disease looks like and feels like, read the article that was written by Mark Wallace under the title: “Closing U.S. Ports to Iran-Tainted Shipping” and the subtitle: “U.S. states can deny docking privileges to the ships of companies that do business in Iran.” It was published in the Wall Street Journal on March 15, 2013.

What makes you feel like you've been attacked by a flesh eating disease is the kind of talk that goes like this: “The National Defense Authorization Act, signed by President Obama in January, contains a provision that authorizes sanctions against any person who knowingly supports activity benefiting port operations in Iran.” In other words, once you let these people take a bite out of you, they become fortified enough to take another bite thus become even more fortified and go for more bites in a continuing operation that will only end when you, America, will have been completely devoured.

The Americans got themselves embroiled in this satanic sort of cultural quagmire when they listened to the AIPAC argument long ago to the effect that they should scratch Israel's back because Israel will respond by scratching America's back. Using this kind of talk, the AIPAC people had paraphrased an old saying to convey the idea that America will benefit from its relationship with Israel as much as Israel will benefit from America.

But this is not how things have transpired over the decades. What happened instead was that America found it necessary to team up with the region's Arab countries to defend its own national security. Not only that but America was hounded each time by the Israelis who tried to interfere with the joint Arab-American operations. In fact, Israel came close to spoiling those operations several times before, thus endangering America and its Arab and non-Arab allies. Israel was warned to stay out and has done so each time, but given the irrational nature of this bizarre entity, no one can be certain it will always heed the warnings.

In addition to that, Israel repeatedly got itself in danger as it launched terrorist attacks against its neighbors to steal from them – a Jewish religious imperative. When the neighbors responded with force, Israel cried out: Help us, America ... a new holocaust is upon us … come to the rescue, come to the rescue. Thus, America got involved directly in Israel's wars to rescue it from the consequences of its own misadventures.

And when America was reluctant at times to respond on the spot to Israel's cries, the latter threatened to embroil America in a larger war by using weapons of mass destruction against its neighbors. This may have been a bluff or it may not, but this kind of behavior will turn nasty one of these days, and America will pay the price.

Thus, the net result of America's relationship with Israel has so far been that it scratched Israel's back by providing it with military and economic aid, by rescuing it each time it got into trouble – and all it got in return was an Israel that ate from America's flesh both on the international stage and the home front where it recruited traitors in all walks of life to push for and implement the Jewish agenda. The examples abound, such as Mark Wallace, his organization which is called United Against Nuclear Iran, and the Wall Street Journal – once a sterling kind of publication – now serving as megaphone to carry the endless sound of Judeo-Israeli absurdities.

The trouble – the serious trouble – is that these absurdities end up being enacted into law in America to bind not Israel or the Jews anywhere in the world but to bind Americans at home, bind them in their states and bind them in their municipalities. Look at the following passage in the Wallace article – just look at it and feel sick to your stomach:

“In the 2010 Comprehensive Iran Sanctions, Accountability, and Divestment Act, Congress explicitly invited state and local governments and agencies to assist with the implementation of federal sanctions policy. Thus state legislatures, local governments and port authorities can take action to ensure that ports under their control effectively bar shippers that make port calls at Iranian ports.”

In the end, Wallace is advocating the following: “All shippers should be presented with a clear choice: Stop doing business in Iran, or stop doing business with the U.S.”

The passage of time has shown that America is no longer big enough, powerful enough or wealthy enough to issue that kind of warning and make the world tremble.

In fact, the passage of time has shown that it is the American people who are now trembling. This turns them into tender flesh that Wallace, AIPAC and world Jewry seek to devour to the last morsel.

No more scratching their backs, America. Scratch yours and let them scratch theirs. Enough is enough.
