Getting on the right Side of History

It happens at times that we make a decision based on what we know, and then regret it when the assumptions on which we based the decision turn out to be different from what we thought. This happens to individuals, to groups of people, even to nations. But if it happens that we decide on something that looks iffy at the time, and our decision turns out to be correct in the long run, the reward can be enormous in that we find ourselves to have been on the right side of history.

And it happens at this point in time that the American Congress is asked to make a decision with regard to the nuclear deal that the Executive, together with five other nations, negotiated with Iran. It proved at the end of the talks that the subject was so important to all of humanity, every nation on Earth considered the negotiations to have been conducted on its behalf. And when all was said and done, every nation that expressed itself on the subject except for one, welcomed the deal.

That exception is Israel whose influence on the American Congress makes people the world over smile with derision and contempt at a legislative body whose priorities have turned it into an insult to the notion of self-respect. And what makes Israel's influence so powerful in the Congress, is that it was created by the Jews who also managed to take control of the means of communication in America; a situation that enables them to bribe or blackmail the office holders. The net result is not only that when the Jew says jump the Congress asks how high … it is that the legislators fight to climb on the shoulder of colleagues so as to impress the Jew from how high they can jump when ordered to do so.

We can see a livid expression of this horrifyingly sordid situation in the Wall Street Journal editorial that came under the title: “Democrats and the Ayatollahs” which also has the subtitle: “Obama's party is now accountable for Iranian behavior.” It was published on September 3, 2015. In it, the editors lament: “Mikulski became the 34th Senate Democrat to announce her support for President Obama's nuclear deal with Iran, enough to sustain a veto on a resolution of disapproval.”

But why are these people so unhappy? They are because the machinery they set up to exploit the deficiencies of the American parliamentary system were blunted by an Executive that saw the superpower it presides over degenerate into a super-joke faster than the blink of an eye. Unable to do anything about the Executive's success, the editors warn: “The deal will proceed, and Democrats are taking responsibility for Iran's compliance and imperial ambitions. They now own the Ayatollahs.” Try to tell that to the Ayatollahs.

What vexes the editors most is that the Executive turned the table on the Judeo-Israeli lobby that's in charge of exploiting the weaknesses of the American democracy. What the lobby has been doing for decades is work out amendments that favor their causes, and have them ride on bills which are of importance to the nation. Because the Congress must pass the larger bill, having deliberated on its merits exhaustively, it votes into law the pro-Jewish, pro-Israeli filth that comes riding with it … without a word being said about it.

And while no one, aside from Ronald Reagan who asked for the right to line-item veto, dared to speak against that near-to-criminal practice, the editors of the Wall Street Journal now shamelessly moan: “What a spectacle that would be – the President using a procedural dodge to avoid voting on the merits of so consequential a deal.”

To reinforce their arguments, the editors of the Journal fall back on the Jewish routine of badmouthing those who are not here to defend themselves. Thus, they demonize the Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei; the head of the Assembly of Experts, Mohammad Yazdi; and the head of the Quds Force, Qasem Soleimani – all of whom reacted at one time or another – to the Jewish non-stop crescendo out of America to the effect that Iran must be sanctioned, sanctioned and sanctioned even more … it must be bombed, bombed and bombed even more.

And yet, all that the Iranians said were things like this: “our policy toward the arrogant U.S. will not change.” And like this: “We should not change our foreign policy of opposition to America.” Despite all that, the editors end their dissertation with this piece of wisdom: “The Iran deal is one of those moments when history will remember where politicians stood.”

The world says that's the right side of history. Only the Jews, Israel and the Judeo-Israeli lobby say otherwise.
