Imagine a celebrated chef that has worked in the fanciest of
hotels and restaurants around the world, opening his own restaurant and serving
only the best of the best he cooked in each of the places where he worked. He
gets on with age and hires a number of sous-chefs to help him carry on with the
tradition.
The problem is that one of the sous-chefs is a plant sent
there by his father who owns a competing restaurant and wants to be “King of
the Hill.” To help the father achieve his goal, the son starts to alter the
system that was established by the celebrated chef. He does the alterations a
little at a time in a deliberately slow and gradual manner so as not to draw
attention to what's happening.
Now dear reader, you must be wondering if this is a
metaphor. The answer is yes, that's what it is, and the intended discussion has
to do with keeping an important part of Planet Earth free of nuclear weapons.
No, this is not about turning the currently celebrated Korean
Peninsula – which is in the Far East –
free of nuclear weapons; it's about maintaining the entire Middle
East free of nuclear weapons.
The difference between the two locations is that the main
problem in the Far East has been identified as North Korea ; thus when we discuss
proliferation in that region, we make sense. As to the Middle
East , it has become taboo to mention the Israeli monkey in the
room. For this reason, we haggle like a cackling duck all we want around the
point, and we end up saying nothing that's useful.
Why is this happening? It is happening because we have a
Jewish sous-chef in every politico-diplomatic kitchen that keeps poisoning the
system that the American chef of a glorious past had established long ago. The
system worked well while it lasted, but then the Jews appeared on the scene,
and kept altering it a little at the time. Still, in time, the system became
what it is today; a dish no different from the dish-wash that washes it.
You get a sense of all that when you read the article which
came under the title: “How to Prevent a Nuclear Arms Race in the Middle East”
and the subtitle: “Invest in stability instead of conflict,” written by Jack
Keane, Dennis Ross, Keith B. Alexander and Robert MacFarlane. It was published
on August 28, 2017 in the National Interest.
If you know your way around Middle Eastern affairs, you'll
quickly identify Dennis Ross as the proverbial sous-chef who is poisoning the
stew. He has been doing it throughout his career, and veteran Middle
East watchers have known it. However, if you're not immersed in
the history of the region but only acquainted with it, you'll wonder why Israel– –that
kept insinuating it is the 600 pound gorilla possessing an arsenal of nuclear
weapons to blow up 200 cities in the neighborhood––was not made a part of the
article's presentation.
You'll eventually guess that to say something negative about
Israel
in an American publication had become a taboo. And this will prompt you to
dismiss the entire article as a piece of junk not worth the paper it's written
on. In fact, a passage that came early in the article must have rung the
astonishment bell inside your head. It reads as follows in condensed form:
“A trend involves the international ambiguity concerning U.S. policy
toward the proliferation of nuclear weapons. The United
States has lacked a strategy for promoting the peaceful
use of nuclear energy since signing of the joint comprehensive plan of action
(JCPOA) with Iran .
It was designed to prevent Iran
from becoming a nuclear state. That agreement is seen throughout Saudi Arabia , the GCC states, Egypt , Israel
and Jordan as enabling Iran to legally
pursue a nuclear-weapons program later on”.
Having said nothing about the monkey in the room pretending
to be a 600 pound gorilla, the writers went on to admit that the use of nuclear
energy to produce electricity will become a common view in the Middle East
whether or not the Jews like it.
And so, they advised that because Russia
and China are assisting the
nations of the region to build civilian nuclear power stations, America must
get in and compete. It should do so, they say – not just for commercial reasons
– but to keep an eye on those countries, thus make certain they will not
produce nuclear weapons.
And this is why––mindful that Israel
used stolen American satellite images to bomb Iraq 's
civilian nuclear station, thus triggered a chain reaction that brought the
horror we see in the Levant today––those
countries will look upon any American offer to assist them as a Jewish booby trap.
They will think of the offer as being encouraged and
promoted by a Congress of imbeciles, and will conclude that they must reject
the American death trap no matter how sweet it sounds.
