Facts FOX News Neglects To Tell You About Israel

by American Vet
Israel gets a full one-third of all the U.S. foreign aid to the world. more than the continent of Africa. They are 1/10th of 1 percent of the world population. Plus, they have a sterling bond rating, because the 'loans' we give them are written off by our congress each and every year.

Thanks to our major media here in the U.S., just how many Americans are informed of the following facts?

The "security fence" being built is, in most places, twice as high as the Berlin Wall and much more fortified. It has little to do with security, and everything to do with a land grab. If it was for security, it would go between the Israelis and the Palestinians. It does not. It goes off into the Occupied Territories, taking about 80% of the water supply ( more precious than oil in the Mid East), and most of the fertile land. Many Palestinians are on the Israeli side. Some "security fence". It also separates thousands of Palestinians from their centuries old olive groves and croplands.

Israel is a nuclear power. Not only is it a nuclear power, it has been for the past 35 years. So long that it's Dimona facility is old, leaking and an environmental hazard. Imagine a radiation cloud over all that precious oil, rendering much of it useless? It is a bigger nuclear power than Britain. An Israeli diplomat boasted they could "hit any European capital".

Of all the industrialized countries in the world, only the U.S. and South Africa do not have a national health plan. Israel does.

There is a law renewed by congress that states if there is an oil shortage, Israel comes first, not our own country. Explain that one to me.

When the young American girl peace activist from Washington state, Rachel Corrie was murdered (yes, murdered)were we told the facts by our media? 1) Israeli military bulldozers knew of the presence of peace activists with orange vests. 2) It would only make sense that the Israeli military bulldozer operator would be able to see where he is going
3)Israeli military bulldozers, as a matter of policy, NEVER stop for a peace activist. It's a game of chicken and you better run like hell. Only she fell. He didn't stop, per policy. Even backed up back over her with a damn heavy bulldozer. 4)The piece de resistance. The clincher. ALL Israeli bulldozer operators destroying homes have an armored personnel carrier nearby directing the operator. HE KNEW.

Arafat has quasi-control over some Palestinian cities, the vast majority is under direct Israeli occupation. How could he possibly "control" these people?

Do Most Americans know that?

Almost all homes bulldozed by the Israeli Occupation Forces are because they do not have an "Israeli building permit", are in the way of the huge new wall, or are too close to an Israeli settlement that says it is for security, but actually expands some more... Not just because they are families homes of a suspected terrorist.

When our ship the USS Liberty was attacked by Israeli air and sea forces in 1967, many high in our government and military thought it was deliberate, including Secretary of State Dean Rusk and former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Admiral Thomas Moorer.
