Lantos: "We'll be rid of the bastard soon enough. And in his place we'll install a pro-Western dictator"
After America gets rid of all the regimes of evil, it will go straight to Syria, "and tell young Assad that's what will happen to him.
By Akiva Eldar
"My dear Colette, don't worry," said Tom Lantos, the California congressman, as he tried to calm MK Colette Avital of the Labor Party, who was visiting Capitol Hill last week as part of a delegation of the Peace Coalition. "You won't have any problem with Saddam," the Jewish congressman continued. "We'll be rid of the bastard soon enough. And in his place we'll install a pro-Western dictator, who will be good for us and for you."
Lantos explained to his guest from Israel that there's no lack of Iraqi opposition figures in exile, but until they learn how to run a state, "we'll be there." According to Lantos that interim period, with an American-sponsored dictator in power, should last between five to six years.
Avital says she asked how one can talk about a dictator in Iraq and at the same time demand "democratic reforms" ...................................

Ed,
I`ve seen this and other comments by our distinguished Cong. from Tel Aviv. He is supposed to be a survivior of the Nazi concentration camps.
Too bad.

I'll stick my neck out here and say that Ahmed Chalabi will be the next "Governor" of Iraq.

Ed,
Id say youre correct about Chalabi being the next "governor." See the post about the column by Michael Ledeen in Neo-con Watch.

We need to pack that bastard Lantos up along with the rest of his tribesman and ship their asses to israel where the belong.
As for who is being installed as Gov of Iraq, it is an X American General who's name escapes me now but he is a good buddy of Israel.

Lying for Israel. Acceptable if done for Jews. When campaigning Lantos told his constituents, Israel needed a friend in Congress.
A vice president of Hill and Knowlton, Gary Hymel, arranged the perjured testimony by the daughter of the Kuwaiti Ambassador before the congressional committee chaired by Representative Lantos of California. Mr. Hymel told the New York Times that he was aware of the true identity of the girl when she testified. This tale of contrived slaughter of babies by Iraqi soldiers was passed off as authentic when it was known to be a lie. This perjury was instrumental in committing the United States to war. Lack of public outrage has been testimony to the media powers which can suppress any story when they choose. Vice chairman of Hill and Knowlton was Frank Mankiewicz, who was once a worthy of Robert Kennedy. Later in October 1991 Mr. Mankiewicz became a member of a foundation board sponsored by Representative Lantos. The Emir of Kuwait spent his money wisely in the hiring of Hill and Knowlton.
**Tom Lantos of California and John Porter of Illinois, stated that "Nayirah's" true identity had to be kept secret to protect her family in occupied Kuwait.
There was a much better reason for keeping the true identity of "Nayirah" secret. For Nayirah, which was her real first name, was the daughter of Saud Nasir al-Sabal, the Kuwaiti Ambassador to the United States. Where was she in the months of August and September 1990 when Kuwait was invaded, and she supposedly witnessed the atrocities? Her father and family were in Washington and were safe from Iraqi reprisals. In 1982 in his congressional campaign Mr. Lantos was telling his constituents at fund raising rallies that "Israel needed a friend in Congress". As late as 1995 Congressman Lantos, a Jew born in Hungary, was chastising the French for preparing to deal commercially with Iraq. People who believe American interests have required more friends of America in Congress have been lacking.
Not to be outdone by minor parties, the Conference of Presidents of Major American Jewish Organizations affirmed their support for the policies of George Bush. They demanded withdrawal of Iraqi forces from Kuwait and the restoration of the legitimate rulers of Kuwait. These stalwarts also demanded the dismantling of Iraq's huge arsenal of conventional and chemical weapons as well as its potential for developing nuclear and biological weapons. They wholeheartedly supported the refusal of the Bush administration to link Kuwait with the Palestinian issue. They closed in hoping that American policy toward Saddam Hussein would not be sidetracked by other nations advocating appeasement or other rewards for aggression by Iraq. This heartfelt and important admonition was read into the Congressional Record. No Congressman challenged this group's lack of interest in casualties that American forces would suffer to achieve this noble goal.**
Thinking about the 6 million - not lives of Americans.> **Lantos of California, whose constituency was heavily weighted with Jewish voters much concerned with Israel. In January of 1991 prior to the key vote authorizing war in the Gulf, Solarz admitted thinking about the "6 million". **
With men like Lantos does anyone question why he have such problems?

I don't know if it's going to happen this year, but regardless of the technological and bio/chem might of the nation of Israel, and also regardless ( or even ironically aided by ) the presence of US forces in the region, a Pan-Arabic movement is in the works which could most definitely invade Israel, take over itz government and sovereignty, and make a final statement about the fate of the region once and for all. It is feasible to imagine over 5 million armed Arabs charging on Israel and destroying it. The nuclear and bio/chem weapons of Israel, which are its most fearsome indeed, will be de facto nullified as the mass migration has penetrated its temporary homeland.

I don't think we are going to see the Arabs go after the Izzies untill they have the backing of the Chinese military. The Chinese are going to be the next super power and they are coming on fast to challange the US for world power. This probably will not occur for another 5-10 years but it will happen as the Chinese are just as dependent on mid east oil as are we.
Russia will roll over and vote with the States on the next UN resolution against Iraq or abstain as they are controlled by Jews as we are.
