They occur when an aggressor\u2014a larger corporation or rich individuals\u2014seizes control of a smaller corporation without asking permission.<\/p>\n<p>What few recognize is that the United States itself has been subjected to a hostile takeover. Since the aggressor, the illegitimate settler colony known as \u201cIsrael,\u201d is much smaller than the USA, the takeover has necessarily been surreptitious.<\/p>\n<p>As of June, 2024, Israel\u2019s gradual takeover of the USA has become obvious and undeniable\u2014a proverbial \u201celephant in the living room.\u201d In this election year, all three major presidential candidates compete for Israel\u2019s favor, even as the whole world recoils from the Zionist genocide of Gaza. The Democratic incumbent, Joe Biden, supplies the butcher Netanyahu with all the weapons he needs to massacre tens of thousands of Palestinian women and children, uttering only occasional peeps of <em>pro forma<\/em> protest in a lame attempt to mollify his base. Biden\u2019s Republican challenger, Donald Trump, openly supports the genocide and calls on Israel to \u201cfinish the job\u201d (of massacring Palestinians). Most bizarrely of all, the independent challenger Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who offers a refreshing alternative to mainstream approaches on other issues, has staked out the most pro-genocide position of the three.<\/p>\n<p>Kennedy\u2019s position is puzzling for many reasons. As the \u201calternative\u201d candidate, he might be expected to take an alternative position on Palestine, especially since it would markedly enhance his slim chances of becoming president. Young Americans oppose genocide and side with Palestine, as the ongoing campus protests demonstrate. If RFK Jr. harnessed that youthful energy by reversing course and announcing his support for Palestine, he would immediately gain tens or even hundreds of thousands of enthusiastic youthful volunteers who would start ringing doorbells and promoting his candidacy, just as anti-Vietnam-war students did for his father in 1968. Since polls show that most Democratic voters oppose Biden\u2019s pro-Israel stance, and that American public opinion overall is following world public opinion in the direction of ever-stronger support for Palestine, RFK Jr. could conceivably win a plurality of votes, and the presidency, by leading that shift. Instead, he has chosen to doom his candidacy by echoing the ultra-genocidal ravings of his handler, Rabbi Schmuley Boteach.<\/p>\n<p>Though Kennedy decries the corrupt forces that have taken over America, and denounces the coups d\u2019\u00e9tat that killed his father (1968) and uncle (1963), he seemingly fails to recognize who was behind the takeover and the killings. Kennedy knows and openly states that his father was not killed by the hypnotized Palestinian patsy Sirhan Sirhan. He acknowledges Sirhan\u2019s innocence and has worked to free him from prison. But the significance of the fact that the perpetrators chose a Palestinian to falsely take the blame apparently escapes him.<\/p>\n<p>In his blockbuster <em>Brothers<\/em>, David Talbot presents convincing evidence that Robert F. Kennedy Sr. was murdered because he was about to become president\u2014and use the power of his office to bring to justice the killers of his brother, President John F. Kennedy. So who were those killers? Michael Collins Piper\u2019s <em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.unz.com\/book\/michael_collins_piper__final-judgment\/\">Final Judgment<\/a> <\/em>makes a strong case that David Ben Gurion, the Israeli Prime Minister who resigned under pressure from JFK, and Israel\u2019s CIA mole James Jesus Angleton, were the ringleaders. The motive: Prevent JFK from shutting down Israel\u2019s nuclear program, and insert Israel\u2019s asset Lyndon B. Johnson into office to oversee the 1967 land-grab war.<\/p>\n<p>Anyone who doubts that Johnson was an Israeli asset needs to read Peter Hounam\u2019s <em>Operation Cyanide: How the Bombing of the USS Liberty Nearly Caused World War III<\/em>. Hounem discovered evidence that then-President Johnson scrambled US nuclear bombers on highest-level alert more than one hour <em>before <\/em>the USS Liberty was attacked by Israel on June 13, 1967. Then when the ship miraculously stayed afloat, radioed for help, and identified its attackers as Israelis, the President of the United States issued a treasonous order: \u201cI want that goddamn ship going to the bottom. No help. Recall the wings.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Most Americans have no idea that Israel attempted to sink the unarmed US spy ship USS Liberty and murder its crew of 293 sailors so the attack could be falsely blamed on Egypt. Nor do they realize that the Zionists succeeded in killing 34 sailors and wounding 171. Even less do they know that the sitting US president was complicit and yearned for the death of every one of those 293 American servicemen.<\/p>\n<p>Why don\u2019t more Americans know about the USS Liberty massacre? A draconian cover-up, in which surviving sailors were told to keep quiet or bad things would happen to their families, persisted for decades. Simultaneously the mainstream media published a smattering of ludicrous assertions that the Israelis had attacked the ship by accident. Those were rare exceptions to a general blackout on the topic.<\/p>\n<p>Why would the media cover up such a sensational story? That question raises an even more basic one: Who controls the media? The president who followed Johnson, Richard M. Nixon, knew, but was afraid to talk about it in public. Privately, he discussed the matter with friends and advisors like the Rev. Billy Graham, who told Nixon that powerful Jews \u201care friendly to me because they know that I&#8217;m friendly with Israel. But they don&#8217;t know how I really feel about what they are doing to this country.\u201d \u201cYou must not let them know,\u201d Nixon replied.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis stranglehold has got to be broken or the country\u2019s going down the drain\u201d Graham continued. Nixon: \u201cDo you believe that?\u201d Graham: \u201cYes, sir.\u201d Nixon: \u201cOh boy. So do I. I can\u2019t ever say that, but I believe it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Today, as we approach the 57<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of Israel\u2019s massacre of American sailors aboard the USS Liberty, the United States of America has gone even further down the drain than it was in 1972, when Nixon\u2019s conversation with Graham took place. Today, anyone who mentions the extraordinary power of America\u2019s 2% Jewish minority, specifically its organized lobby groups and sway over media, finance, politics and organized crime (which are not mutually exclusive categories) will be viciously smeared, their careers and reputations ruined by a group so powerful that it has prohibited any mention of its power.<\/p>\n<p>Some try to avoid the smears by speaking of the \u201cZionist lobby\u201d rather than the \u201cJewish lobby.\u201d But the distinction is largely semantic. Virtually all of the power of organized Jewry supports Zionism, including every one of the 50 groups represented at the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations. Since the Zionist entity defines itself as <em>the<\/em> \u201cJewish state\u201d and its presumptive citizens as all Jews on Earth, regardless of where they live, calling its American contingent \u201cthe Jewish lobby\u201d is reasonable and accurate\u2014just as Irish-Americans who lobby for Ireland, albeit without the power of their Jewish counterparts, are an \u201cIrish lobby.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Others prefer the term \u201cZionist\u201d because it includes so-called Christian Zionists like Billy Graham. But as the tapes of his conversations with Nixon show, Graham\u2019s professed Zionism was insincere. The only reason Graham pretended to support Israel was the same reason Nixon pretended to support Israel: Both men were terrified by the power of the Jews. And while there are no doubt some sincere Christian Zionists, they are mere useful idiots in the quintessentially Jewish project of building an ever-expanding, ever-more-powerful Jewish state representing not just Israel\u2019s Jewish citizens, but all the Jews of the world.<\/p>\n<p>Looking back on the 1967 war and its context, including the USS Liberty massacre, one is struck by the Jewish state\u2019s willingness to engage in risky and reckless behavior. Normally, if a small nation of just a few million people murdered a sitting US president, as Israel did in 1963, it might expect to be scrubbed from the face of the Earth. \u201cOy vey, if we get caught!\u201d Israeli leader Golda Meir was reported to have said shortly after the JFK assassination. Meir also said, on two occasions, that Israel would destroy the world with nuclear weapons rather than accept military defeat. (The source for both statements was Meir\u2019s personal friend, former lead Mideast BBC correspondent Alan Hart.)<\/p>\n<p>Today, the Zionist entity is still taking enormous risks\u2014and pushing the world toward nuclear armageddon. Its genocide of Gaza has cast it as the enemy of all humanity. Its repeated attacks on regional countries, and its assassinations of Iran\u2019s top generals and suspected assassination of the Iranian president and foreign minister, have brought the Muslim East, and the world, to the proverbial precipice. And its complete death grip on power in America has destroyed the American republic and is driving the now-fascist US empire to destruction.<\/p>\n<p>Like the brave soldiers on the wounded USS Liberty, who cobbled together makeshift communications equipment after the Zionists had bombed their antenna, and managed to broadcast a message revealing the identity of their attackers, we need to piece together what is left of our Enlightenment-era free communications network and use it to inform the world who the enemy really is.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">&#8212;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/kevinbarrett.substack.com\/subscribe\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"><strong>Subscribe to Kevin\u2019s Newsletter<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kevinbarrett.substack.com\/p\/uss-liberty-massacre-a-pivotal-moment\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Today, anyone who mentions the extraordinary power of America\u2019s 2% Jewish minority will be viciously smeared, their careers and reputations ruined by a group so powerful that it has prohibited any mention of its power.
