ZGram - Where Truth is Destiny

September 9, 2002

Good Morning from the Zundelsite:

As most of my readers know, Israel Shamir is an excellent writer and 
one of the most honest and decent men that I know.  I always pay 
attention when he sends me an update - and I thought I should share 
the following with you:

[START]

Dear friend,

A collection of my Intifada essays has been published in Norway by Samlaget,
in Norwegian (nynorsk), translated by Hans Olav Brendberg, a brilliant
thinker in his own right, and it will be presented in Oslo, Norway, on
September 18, 2002. There will be a dispute on Palestine in Oslo University,
where the supporters of apartheid will roll out its formidable champion,
the vice president of the Norwegian parliament. He is
a great friend of the state of Israel and a Professor of
theology. I shall joust with him on behalf of Equality, and for Our Lady of
Palestine. Together with me, there will be Nils Buthens=F8n, the director at
the institute for human rights at the University of Oslo, a friend of
Palestine. You can cheer us by email!

The English language edition of my essays has ran into ground, alas! Pluto
Press chief editor, who has been vying for the right to publish it, wrote to
me: "Dear Israel, I am defeated. After more discussion, various members of
the company threatened to walk out if we went ahead <and published the
book>. I don't want to put this threat to the test, .. we are small and the
possibility that it would be carried out by senior members of staff, is
sufficient for me to pull back". Thus the Jewish Lobby proved again its
wonderful ability to stifle the free discourse in English language.

I am now in Jerusalem, and the city is quite gloomy, full of soldiers and
policemen, security checks every ten yards. Sharon managed to spoil
everything but the glorious weather. Even right-wing Israelis feel that
their economy crashed, unemployment is high, and there is no sign of
improvement. Though it is Palestinian villages and towns that are besieged,
the spirit of Palestinians is much higher than that of Israelis. I had been
yesterday in Ramallah, and had met some wonderful people, real source of
hope. It is the right time to promote the idea of equality, as both sides
are now ripe for this message. I and my friends are ready to come to
anyplace in Palestine to explain the idea. Your help is needed and
appreciated.

=46or avid readers, I advise to read deep essays of Michael Neumann from
Canada. This professor of Philosophy is very good! See the
www.yellowtimes.com

Another highly recommended source is Executive Intelligence Review,
www.larouchepub.com a good example of investigating journalism. They are the
people who revealed the origins of MEMRI long before Brian Whitaker of the
Guardian. They also published a splendid article on Mega, the secretive
group of Jewish billionaires, that works behind the scenes. Now they
uncovered connection between the neo-con group of Perle and the circle that
ran Pollard, the Israeli mole in Pentagon. EIR claims that "The network of
Pollard "stay-behinds" inside the Bush Administration is trying to induce
the President and the U.S. Congress to go to war. The Israeli agents Perle,
=46eith, the Wurmsers, et al. were among the leading suspected Israeli spies=
,
tasking Jonathan Pollard to steal the most precious national security
secrets of the U.S.A., from inside the Reagan-Bush national security
apparatus.

Isn't it time that these co-conspirators joined Jonathan Pollard behind
bars?  Isn't it time for President Bush to give these clowns a "September
Surprise"? - writes EIR. The full text can be found on the EIR site.***
La Rouche is sometimes presented as untouchable, but this magazine is an
obligatory reading!
