Has North Korea attacked UN bases? Has Iran attacked NATO ships? Has either country invaded anyone in the last 50 years? The answer to this riddle is Israel. Today, they attacked the German peacekeepers with malicious deliberation.
BERLIN (Reuters) - Two Israeli warplanes and a German navy vessel have clashed off the Lebanese coast, the Defence Ministry in Berlin said on Wednesday without giving further details.Germany daily Der Tagesspiegel earlier on Wednesday quoted a junior German defence minister as telling a parliamentary committee that two Israeli F-16 fighters flew low over the German ship and fired two shots.
The jets also released infra-red countermeasures to ward off any rocket attack, the paper quoted him as saying.
This is a repeat of the sinking of the Liberty when Israel maliciously attacked an American Navy vessel flying our flag. Worse, they straffed the sailors as they clung to life rafts and wreckage. To this day, they have not paid reparations nor apologized to the dead.
But then, we kill our allies all the time, too. Not to mention tourists in Northern Italy, for example.
The yells about North Korea and Iran look increasingly like hogwash. We don't give a fig about nuclear proliferation nor illegal aggressions or the butchering of native populations by armed soldiers attacking refugee camps or anything Israel does.
And this lies in the center of the darkness that is enveloping America: our enemies are proliferating even as we claim we simply want Pax Americus. But in reality, our alter-egos and masters, the Israeli Jews and their lobby here, run things and they run roughshod over the entire planet.
There was NO REASON for them to attack a ship with a German/NATO flag. The French have complained about these illegal flights into Lebanese sovereign territory and they have been flying very low over Tyre, for example, breaking the sound barrier in order to TERRORIZE the civilians.
The USA will waste even more precious diplomatic capital placating Germany on Israel's behalf. And once again, we will be laughed at by the entire planet who hold us in increasing contempt. This contempt has a high price tag!
In Germany, the rising right wing will point out that this attack by the Jews flying jets, an unprovoked attack, is a sign the Jews are enemies of Germany and far from being Hitler's victims, deserve to be eradicated.
The Iranians talk about this all the time and I keep saying, despite the howls of outrage from the ruling elite and their press, there is a huge audience! And this audience just heard loud and clear, the Jews are so filled with arrogance and a sense of entitlement, they are going to joy-ride around the world, shooting up whomever they want and no one can stop them because the USA military machine is owned and controlled by them and they pull the levers in the UN, controlling the USA totally.
And this sense of entitlement will lead to a rising tide of really nasty anti-semitism!
If the Prime Minister and his cabinet resign over this and apologize to Germany and then goes to the UN to request the UN patrol ISRAEL then we might see some recovery. But this won't happen.
Israel is on a death march. They can't help themselves. They have to lash out at Chinese UN observers, they have to kill American sailors and harrass German soldiers. They have to kill Palestinian school girls and so on...all the way into the pit.
Good grief. Will someone in our own country please stop this? Will Hillary Clinton demand Israel stop attacking peacekeepers? Will the sun rise in the west?
I wonder if this German NATO ship wandered too close to the Anglo-American Armada stationed somewhere off the shore of Lebanon?

The other left blogs are not reporting this - thank you i would not have known about it and doubt if the corporate media will cover this. looks like israel has the left blogs - democratic underground, daily kos and others under their "protection"
I am also concerned about the armada and concerned that anything on this dangerous situation is dungeoned or not reported by the left news sites.
Kuchinch hearings very recently on the plan to attack Iran with testimoney from Col. Sam Gardiner retired antiwar who was contacted by very distressed servicemen on the Eisenhower that congress had not declared war and that they were being deployed to the Middle East under unusual circumstances, they the Iwo Jima strike group was sent.
some speculated that the armada is there to help airlift our troops out of this dangerous situation and to offer protection rather than to have a false flag operation blamed on Iran to attack but there are other signs that are worrying. Is there any way to get further information"
The retired Generals are stating that they are voting democrat and Gen. Batiste almost begged people to vote dem for accountability in the Dem Hearings on Iraq about 3 weeks ago - you tube has the testimony.

It is making news in Europe and Asia! As well as the Middle East, of course.
The Israelis know how to start wars. They have a lot of experience.

So the Jews attacked the Germans? That's a real "man bites dog" story, isn't it?
Maybe they're just making up for lost time.

Smith, you better tell the Israelis the population of Germany dwarfs theirs. German industry dwarfs theirs, too. And Germany can find allies...hello, Iran!

gotta love how everyone jumps to conclusions even though the facts arent clear yet. give israel a chance and stop demonising them - they arent the only country to make mistakes.

Israel's history is full of such actions. This is due to hyper-aggression which has become entrenched in their culture.
