28 million DVDs defaming Islam (Obama ?) distributed by Likud Lobby
The Asia Times is fingering well known Likud Lobbyists in D.C. and the publishers of the right-wing Jerusalem Post as the folks behind an apparently vile DVD that’s been inserted in 28 million battleground-state newspapers in recent weeks.
Ah, here it is: Obsession: Radical Islam’s War Against the West.
The DVD does not mention Obama. But people elsewhere are complaining that nevertheless it targets his candidacy.
I haven’t seen it. The trailer at the website suggests it relies heavily on video of jihadist training camps and doctrination sessions.
To instill the fear of Allah in middle-of-the-road voters, clearly, is the aim.
Is it fair, then, to conclude that they’re trying to push the idgit vote to McCain, having finally been snuffed this spring by baby Bush?
However that may be, both candidates were careful to bow deeply to Israel in the debates this evening.
That is: Lehrer asked about the threat Iran posed to the US — and instead each candidate devoted his time to expounding the threat to Israel and the mideast generally. Reading the same teleprompter.
Caroline Glick, a top editor at The Jerusalem Post, and a bellicose belcher of neofascist screed, is named by the Asian Times.
And in D.C. — Meyrev Wurmser. Of similar cast. (Proud to have blocked the application of the Helsinki Accords to Israel’s war.) You can check her out here — then follow the links within her bio to others and …
Voila. You’ve been well introduced to the Likud Lobby, and the makers of the Iraq war.
Apparently they want more.
(Want more? Here.)
