The current crisis may  lead to some devastating consequences as far as Palestine, Iran and the Middle East are concerned.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNetanyahu and Obama are at a point of no return\u201d claims Haaretz writer <a href=\"http:\/\/haaretz.com\/hasen\/spages\/1159300.html\">Akiva Eldar<\/a>. \u201cAs far as President Barack Obama and his senior advisers are concerned, Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is to blame for nothing less than damaging the standing of the U.S. in the Middle East and the Muslim world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>It may be possible that the Americans have started to gather that there is no partner for peace in Israel. America clearly has had to shun its \u2018<i>kosher<\/i> ally\u2019. The American <a href=\"http:\/\/www.haaretz.com\/hasen\/spages\/1157108.html\">military<\/a> and political elite already admitted this week that Israel is a strategic burden on the U.S. Seemingly, the only people who genuinely believe in the American Israel strategic bond are AIPAC and its  list of obedient \u2018Sabbath Congressmen Goyim\u2019. But unfortunately, this is just one side of the story.<\/p>\n<p>A deeper reading of recent events would suggest that the latest American Israeli rift is actually led by Netanyahu\u2019s political partners. Interestingly enough, as much as America reveals growing disapproval of Israeli policy, the anti American attitude, demonstrated by Netanyahu\u2019s allies at home, is overwhelming. It doesn\u2019t take a genius to grasp that some of Netanyahu\u2019s cabinet members are doing everything in their power to fire up a storm between Israel and its \u2018closest ally\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>Interior Minister Eli Yishai, the man behind decisions that sparked the recent diplomatic crisis, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ynetnews.com\/articles\/0,7340,L-3868045,00.html\">said this week<\/a> &#8216;Israelis voted for this government&#8217;s path, according to which, there will be no compromises on (the) Jerusalem issue&#8217;. He also used the opportunity to thank his creator for giving him \u201cthe right to be the minister who approves the construction of thousands of housing units in Jerusalem&#8221;. Along with his latest disastrous visit to Washington, PM Netanyahu found time to consult with his Foreign Minister Avigdor Lieberman. According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ynetnews.com\/articles\/0,7340,L-3868248,00.html\">Ynet<\/a>, Lieberman advised his PM \u201cnot to capitulate in  face of American pressure\u201d. <\/p>\n<p>I guess that most political analysts fail to understand the depth of the Israeli right wing expansionist and racist conviction. Unlike Sharon, Peres, Livni, Rabin, Olmert, Barak and even Netanyahu himself, who along the years,  paid a limited respect to the West and the US in particular, Netanyahu\u2019s cabinet is dominated by right wing Zionist hawks. They follow David Ben Gurion\u2019s old mantra: \u201cit doesn&#8217;t matter what the <i>Goyim<\/i> (Gentiles) say, the only thing that matters is what the Jews do\u201d. Netanyahu\u2019s political partners are not willing to compromise or acquiesce to American conditions. <\/p>\n<p>Netanyahu\u2019s political allies are convinced that at least momentarily they will do better without Uncle Sam. They realise that the days of the \u2018Jew-only state\u2019 are numbered unless some radical moves are put into action. They grasp that unless the Jewish state implements measures that would push the entire Palestinian population out of Israel, the Zionist dream will come to its end and pretty soon. <\/p>\n<p>Those hawks also realise that once Iran gets a hold of a nuclear capacity, Israel\u2019s ability to maintain its status as a \u2018regional terror-inflicting power\u2019, would disappear overnight. Netanyahu\u2019s cabinet members grasp that if Israel wants to survive as a Jewish ethnocracy and a regional super power, Israel must confront Iran soon and ethnically cleanse Palestine of its indigenous population, in an act that will complete the objectives of the 1948 Nakba. Israeli hawks who currently dominate Netanyahu\u2019s government and Israeli politics realise that a bond with America can only restrict and even jeopardize their sinister plans for the region.<\/p>\n<p>It is obviously hard to predict Israel\u2019s next move. However it is crucial to remember that at the heart of the Zionist collective narrative we find Biblical stories like that of Samson, a tale of a suicidal genocidal character. Samson is the Jewish Hercules. He was granted some tremendous strength by God to combat the Jew\u2019s enemies and to perform some \u2018heroic\u2019 feats unachievable by ordinary humans. He wrestles a lion, he slays an entire army with only a donkey\u2019s jawbone and eventually when the time is ripe, he commits mass murder. Single handedly he crushes a Philistine temple killing thousands, including the elderly, women, children and himself.<\/p>\n<p>I do not know whether Lieberman regards himself to be the new Samson. Looking at his recent picture, he is probably not fit enough to fight a lion. However, the genocidal tendency together with suicidal inclination is absolutely there.<br \/>\n<span style=\"font-size:12px\">http:\/\/www.gilad.co.uk\/writings\/samson-and-the-2nd-nakba-a-short-study-of-the-jewish-hercule.html<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A short study of the Jewish Hercules<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":109,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12512","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-Israel_Anti-Semitism_Zionism_and_US-UK_allies"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12512","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/109"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=12512"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12512\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=12512"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=12512"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.thetruthseeker.co.uk\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=12512"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
