This week, it was reported by international news agencies that there was an assassination attempt on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton during her recent trip to Israel. Oddly enough, the story was reported on both Israeli radio and Reuters, which both went silent shortly after the reports. Reports from Iranian news sources were not accepted by US media outlets. The mixed reports have left some baffled as to whether or not the Israeli sources and Reuters were making all of this up in the first place or if they’ve been asked to keep the issue silent. n
The reports happen to coincide with Right Wing accusations of Muslim extremists being inside Hillary Clinton’s circle of advisers. Additionally, there was an attack in Bulgaria this week, with Israeli officials claiming that the attacks were sponsored by the Iranian government.
Some are speculating that these reports may be connected by the fact that the Israeli government is working to convince the United States to back it’s country in an attack against Iran. It is also noted that the alleged assassination attempt on Secretary of State Clinton was not reported in mainstream US media because some have an interest in suppressing this information. Such a revelation would be an embarrassment to the Israeli government, given that security protocols dictate that a car should never have gotten close enough to fire upon her convoy.
We don’t know exactly what’s going on here, but it sounds like the Israeli government could be duping us in the same way that former President George W. Bush duped us into the Iraq War. By creating an environment in which it appears that war is necessary, the Israelis may get the green light to attack Iran that they are seeking.

Dr. Leon should know that the quote he attributes to the “Venerable Elder” Nelson Mandela originates with our “Esteemed Ancestor” Dr. Martin L. King, Jr.
“As I have walked among the desperate, rejected, and angry young men, I have told them that Molotov cocktails and rifles would not solve their problems. I have tried to offer them my deepest compassion while maintaining my conviction that social change comes most meaningfully through non-violent action; for they ask and write me, “So what about Vietnam?” They ask if our nation wasn’t using massive doses of violence to solve its problems to bring about the changes it wanted. Their questions hit home, and I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without first having spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today: my own government.” – Martin L. King, Jr.

Thursday, July 11, 2002
Mr. TRAFICANT. Mr. Speaker, the following reflects the truthful and reliable investigation by Congressman JAMES TRAFICANT into the association between the FBI and organized crime (mafia) in Youngstown, Ohio and surrounding areas.

I think certain interests are for the propagation of a poisonous environment that would lead us to war with Iran. I also believe that there are other interests that may not be so inclined to go that route at this time. Some groups would support this type of activity and some wouldnt. I dont believe they care about who lives or dies… Innocent people arent a factor. I just see conflicting interests in some of these areas, and depending on who has control of the media in this country? The issue may be suppressed or elevated.
