NAZI TROOPS IN TEL AVIV
BULLETS FIRED AT PHOSPHORUS WHITE
Israel is using white phosphorus shells - banned substance that causes serious burns if it comes into contact with skin - smoke screens to cover the advance of its troops in the Gaza Strip. It is reported that the British newspaper The Times, explaining that the use of weapons, witnessed by the typical white cloud they produce, has been recorded in the northern Gaza Strip. It is, according to the newspaper, with clouds that look like tentacles that extend to the ground by an explosion in the sky, as it also shows a picture published in the paper. According to the Geneva Treaty of 1980, the white phosphorous weapons can not be used in areas populated by civilians, because they can kill many people: white phosphorus continues to burn until it is exhausted from lack of oxygen, the contact element with which triggers the flame. Gaza is one of the most densely populated in the world, and even if it is used only for the smokescreen that creates, there are strong chances that makes civilian casualties. Israeli forces have denied that such weapons have been used in the present conflict, saying through a spokesman that Ishai David Tsahal 'is using ammunition permitted under international law. " However, it has meant that the gun is portrayed in the photographs in the Times. In the attack on Lebanon in 2006, Israel said it had used white phosphorus, but against "military targets in open terrain." In recent years, the controversial weapon was also used by American and British forces in Iraq, causing controversy. "These explosions produce a lot of smoke that blinds the enemy. So our troops are advancing, "he told the Times, an Israeli security expert. The rain phosphorus is also used to scare away possible militants operating remote detonators, the risk is to be burned alive. Charles Heyman, a former British army major said: "If the white phosphorus was fired at a crowd, someone would end up at the Hague tribunal." According to The Times, the Jerusalem army would use smoke screens to cover the advance
EMBEDDED JOURNALISM FROM ISRAEL
WITH CLAUDIO PAGLIARO RAI
No, you do not like Berlusconi has done, But there is a limit to everything. The services of Israel Claudio Pagliara - embedded journalist in the wake of Nazi Israelis - are increasingly outrageous and increasingly oriented to "steer" the listener. Claudio Pagliara lives in his own world, where if there's 100-200 rockets into Israel in recent weeks is because the Israeli military retaliation unleashed by the government in response to the kidnapping of two soldiers has already caused the deaths of over a thousand Lebanese population, of which most of them children and one million displaced persons, the destruction of entire neighborhoods and major infrastructure, including all roads leading to inability to get humanitarian aid to the Lebanese population. No, for the RAI sent rockets into Israel of those hours are to be read as the response of Hezzbollah the peace efforts of international diplomacy. The bombing all of Lebanon by Israel, however, be read as key to enable the international community to find the right soil to deploy the peace initiative.

Mauro Manno
political scientist and Middle East expert
TALK OF ZIONISM
From the website "ViaRoma100" resume this interview Joan Canzano
Mauro Manno appeared to January 6, 2008.
"Jews 'ueber alles'. Since 1948 with the birth of Israel by reading various newspapers we see the Jewish presence in every field of cultural and economic life: a guide and essays and 'righteous'? "
MANNO - I would not say" Jews über alles ", if anything & ldquo ; Zionists über Alles. " This distinction is crucial today. Study for many years the political ideology of Zionism to say with certainty that the confusion on this point is not only wrong, historically and politically, but also unfair to those many Jews who were victims of Zionism. Even today there are Jews who are victims of Zionism. I do not know of any new casualties a few personally, and I do not seem to be "über alles", are certainly under the eye of the Zionists. They are ostracized, lose their jobs at the university as it happened to Norman Finkelstein, author of 'The Holocaust Industry' or are isolated and placed under conditions of leave not only the university chair, but also their affections and their friends in Israel and emigrate to the West, as happened to Ilan Pappe, author of 'The ethnic cleansing of Palestine '. These Jews are suffering because they have the courage to declare oneself a Zionist. This act of rebellion against Zionism is not only the repudiation of political ideology but also the rejection of the historical consequences that his victory has had, namely, the Jewish state, Israel as a Jewish state. Anti-Zionists want to end the state of Israel as it was built by the Zionists and fighting for its replacement with a single democratic state for all Jews and all the Palestinians who are in the whole of Palestine , that is, inside Israel and the occupied territories, including Gaza. But this is not enough, they also support the right of return of refugees expelled in 1948, and indeed marks the UN resolution No. 194, passed exactly 60 years ago (December 11, 1948) and never applied. But beware! Who knows the fate of these new victims of Zionism, that is anti-Zionist Jews should not forget the far more tragic fate happened to the assimilationist Jews during World War II. They too were opposed to Zionism, they also were the victims of Zionism. This is the part of their history that the Zionists want to absolutely keep hidden. Their struggle against the assimilationist Jews, conducted in collaboration with the Nazis and antisemites. More than "just men", the Zionists are the politicians most unjust that we have ever been, to other Jews and to non-Jews.
"assimilationist Jews?"
MANNO - assimilationist Jews are those Jews who want to assimilate, blend into the population of the country where they are born. For the rabbinic law, the Halacha, jew is who is the son or daughter of a Jewish mother or who converts to Judaism. Jewishness, then, is transmitted through blood, from mother to son or daughter. For other religions is not so: a Catholic Christianity or Islam a Muslim is not transmitted through blood. To keep this feature to keep Jewish and Judaism in general is essential that the family there are no mixed marriages with non-Jews. If a jew (not born in Israel) believes that to be the son of a Jewish mother does not do jew, if it rejects the Jewish religion, if you consider a human being free to choose another religion or no religion, if he wants to live without the burden of the Jewish past of his family, then he is un'assimilazionista. To exit the closed Jewish world and enter the world more open and free of non-Jews. He then will take the whole culture, language, way of life, cuisine, tradition, etc.. the country in which they live. It will also adopt the fate. You do not feel obliged to marry a Jewish woman that her children will no longer be Jewish according to Halacha. If you educate its children in the spirit in which he lived and where his children will also be of mixed marriages, and so the children of his children, then after a few generations his descendants are no longer Jews, will be Italian, German, French, etc. in all respects. The Zionist Jabotinsky, who abhorred the assimilation of course, so he said: "To achieve true assimilation .... [The jew] must produce through a long series of mixed marriages, in a period of several decades, a grandson of a grandson of a grandson in whose veins remained only a trace of Jewish blood, because only that grandson of a grandson of a grandson will have the shape of a spiritual truth or a true French German. " The mixed marriage is the basis of assimilation. Before World War II, mixed marriages were in strong growth, for example, in 1929, in Germany, they represented 59% of marriages, marriages of pure hand, with both spouses Jews were a minority, 41%. This scared the Zionists, who saw the assimilationists the same way as traitors. When the Nazis came to power, the international Zionist organizations were quick to cooperate with them and concluded pacts to migrate only the Zionists out of the Germany (recovering their possessions) and started in the Palestinian camps. Assimilationist Jews do not interest them, and so condemned them to their fate. The Zionists did nothing because the assimilationist Germans could emigrate to America or other Western states, even blocked all attempts to do so. Later, during the war, they extended this policy at European level. Were ongoing killings and massacres of Jews and their treatment to save only the Zionists and those who wanted to emigrate to Palestine, the others could die. The example of Rezso Kasztner , is illuminating. This Hungarian Zionist, in 1944, smuggled the salvation of his family and followers of the various Zionist organizations in Hungary - 1600 people in all - in exchange for his cooperation and that of his followers to facilitate the deportation to Auschwitz of hundreds of thousands of Jewish assimilationist. This policy has facilitated the near extinction of non-Zionist Jews, those on the path of assimilation. The Zionists are jointly responsible, with the Nazis in this crime. That's why today the majority of Diaspora Jews declare themselves Zionists and practice of marriages between Jews only.
"That is ethnic cleansing carried out between the Jews and by Jews?"
MANNO - Serbia the term "ethnic cleansing" that the Zionists have done to the Palestinians in 1948. They cleanse Palestine of its ancient inhabitants, as shown in detail Ilan Pappe in his recent book with that title. I would say instead that there was the will of the Zionists to get rid of the non-Zionist Jews. I have talked about shared responsibility of the Zionists with the Nazis. They were the Nazis to bring death and the Zionists have collaborated on various levels with their tormentors. During World War II, the Zionists, in some cases have come to kill directly, most of the time, denounced fellow Jews, they often run concentration camps, have convinced him to sit assimilationist good, not to rebel, all in exchange for the lives of their followers Zionists their family and friends. As for their followers, we must specify that the Zionist leaders did not even committed to save them all, but only the youngest, those who could fight with the weapons (in anticipation of the fight against the British and the Palestinians) that is, those that could work for the development of the colonies, who could bear children. The old and the children were weight. In 1937, Chaim Weizmann , the future president of Israel, before the Peel Commission in London said coldly: "I want to save ... young people [for Palestine]. The old pass. Bear their fate or they will not. They are dust, economic and moral dust in a cruel world ... Only the young industry will survive. They will have to accept it. " And here they are Zionists. Ben Gurion, speaking in '38, children (children of non-Zionists and Zionists), said: "If you knew that you can save all the children of Germany by bringing them to England and only half of them bringing in Eretz Israel, then I would opt for the second alternative. " Ben Gurion knew that if the assimilationist and people of good will they had to choose between saving Jews from concentration camps "and Zionism," piety "would have" the best and the whole ' energy of the people would be "channeled toward the rescue of Jews from various countries", then "Zionism" would be "wiped off the agenda not only in world public opinion in Britain and the United States U.S., but also everywhere else in the public Jewish. " For the Zionists it was not to happen and they did everything possible so it does not happen. Do you think that when someone said to Yitzhak Gruenbaum - Head of the Relief Committee (!!!) Jewish Agency in Palestine, in 1943 when the massacres had begun, "Do not build new settlements (...) the money disbursed to save the Jews of the diaspora, "he said," Zionism goes above all else. " On another occasion, again in 1943, pronounced the sentence: "A cow in Palestine is worth more than all the Jews in Poland. " So the Zionists, allying with the Nazis, were saved, while the non-Zionists have been eliminated just for the sake of that covenant. And today the Zionist rule over all the Jews and heavily influence Western governments. Determine American foreign policy (see the book by Mearsheimer and Walt). For this reason Israel is untouchable and can do whatever he wants and not just the Palestinians ... But here we touch upon the problem of the Zionist lobby.
"Zionist Lobby?
MANN-To understand, let's take the example of the Zionist lobby in America, the Zionist lobby is stronger than the West. In the course of the two American candidates to the White House, all they could see on TV and Obama is his deputy, Biden, and the two losers McCain and Palin run to genuflect before the organization's most powerful lobby, AIPAC. This had been foreseen by Mearsheimer and Walt came true and on time. The two candidates were forced to submit to a thorough examination in the courts of the lobby about their policy proposals on Israel and the command post that they were willing to grant the Zionists (Jews and non-Jews) in their future administration. We all remember how Obama has succeeded in displacing rival proclaiming that he supports the line of "Jerusalem, one and indivisible capital of Israel." McCain had not pushed that far. This line is officially condemned by the international community based on a series of UN resolutions. Israel continues in the expulsion of Palestinians (most of the Christian faith) from the Holy City and the West pretends not to notice while maintaining the official position of the UN. Now Obama, the 'man of peace "has been pushed by Israel as no president had ever done. At first it seemed that the decisive support of the lobby to go for McCain , then things have changed. It must be remembered that the vice of Obama, Joe Biden , just chosen, said he was "an ardent Zionist," and would not surprise me if Obama was not required to own the Lobby. Then Obama was able to give guarantees safe and favors (and money) has been injected into the lobby on his side. A powerful blow to the Zionists. Now, the lobby will a policy pro-Israel lobby and pro pursued by a president and not a popular stand-in for Bush . Western politicians may also make them a pro-Israel and pro-American policy (which is the same) without too much conflict with the public. The antiwar movement was completely blown away. Of course very soon Obama will destroy his image as a new man, making like Rice or Powell , black on duty that serves the interests of the lobby, but what does that matter to the lobby, since it gets what it wants ? In reality the image of Obama is already affected. The choice of Clinton for Foreign Affairs, the choice of Rahm strengthen Israel, as has happened in Iraq. We too have our European Zionist lobby anyway. We have no illusions.
"Even in Europe there is the Zionist lobby?"
MANNO - The Zionist lobby is everywhere in the world where there are Zionists. If the latter were all in Israel, things would be easier but there is the Diaspora and among the Jews of the Diaspora are many Zionists. Already in the program was the first Zionist Congress (1897) that the Zionists of the Diaspora should take the necessary steps "to get the various governments the necessary consensus to achieve the goals of Zionism." And that's what they've accomplished. Today, after the birth of Israel, the American Zionist lobby and the various national lobbies are always "goals of Zionism," but they are different than when it was necessary to found the Jewish state. 60 After its founding, Israel has no secure foundations. Its existence as a Jewish state "is questioned and it is maintained only by force. Being an ethnic state that occupies lands of others and oppressing the Palestinians, without complying with international law, it knows that it is an illegitimate state. The lobby has the task of "legitimate" at least in the West. Europe, at least formally committed itself in the Middle East with a balance between Arabs and Israelis. We have great interests in the Arab world. In 2004 we were the first changes. The EU Council approved the "Action Plan EU-Israel" and despite the shocking report of Israel in the field of human human, the Plan stated that "The EU and Israel share the same values of democracy, respect for human rights and rule of law and fundamental freedoms". That is absolutely not true and I am ready to prove it. However, the plan is even worse: it gives the possibility for Israel to "take part in key aspects of EU policies." Become a Zionist colony. "Since 2006, Europe's position changed further. Before there was a softening of criticism of Israel. This was under pressure from a special "American Jewish Committee for Europe." In it there is AIPAC, the ADL (Anti-Defamation League), the American Jewish Congress, who distinguished himself in particular. A positive response from the EU was first Prodi, then Ferrero-Waldner finally Barroso. Before 2000, the EU demanded that Israel pay for damage to infrastructure, built with the money in the occupied territories in Europe, later, Ferrero-Waldner and Mr Barroso does not pretend anymore. Today there is structure in the European parliament of 200 MPs' Friends Europeans of Israel "who works for Tel Aviv. This effort is supported by Jewish businessmen from across the continent and in the various parliaments elected by Jews, as in Italy, the Flame Nierenstein and lawyer Ruben Alessandro .
Finally, the EU presidency to France Zionist Jew (I told him) Nicolas Sarkozy and the establishment of a Mediterranean Union, Zionism is now very close to gaining acceptance and legitimacy of Israel in Arab world, through Europe. Warning, this is not a policy of peace, as they say European leaders. If the Arab legitimacy will take place, Israel will have a free hand to a military policy against Iran, Hezbollah and the Palestinians, with the approval of Arab countries. In this context, a Palestinian state will be a series of little Bantustans completely surrounded, like Gaza. Only the economic crisis of the West can stop the conflict. If the economic crisis will blow up the tottering power of the corrupt Arab rulers, we will see a resurgence of terrorism, riots, revolutions of the Arab people frustrated.
"Israel is a democratic state?"
MANNO - No. It is not. It is a state ethnocratic. A state for Jews only. The only true democracy in the Jewish state for Jews. For non-Jews is a farce. Imagine for a moment that in a multiethnic country where there is a colonial administration, a party representing a particular ethnic group has planned, after the end of colonialism, to establish a democratic state in all the land hunting but other ethnic groups . We can say that the program of this party is Democrat? For me is a racist based on ethnic cleansing. Now imagine that, after the phase of colonialism, this party is allowed to establish their status but only a part of the country and provided that on that territory there are no ethnic expulsions. It happens however that the state was founded after the expulsion of the majority of the people by the minority, according to its original racist program. It is a democratic but democracy must involve the whole population and not just the minority that carried out ethnic cleansing. Now it happens that the institutions they represent international law (eg the UN) ask in this state to reinstate the expelled ethnic and grant them equal democratic rights. In response to this was "democratic" (the only ethnic group to which it is) refuses to do so, in fact persists in its initial program you want to conquer the whole territory of the country and colonize it with people of his ethnicity made to flow from other countries. This new expansion and the new ethnic cleansing do not happen by chance but is enshrined in the founding documents of the state "democratic." For example, they settled there in the whole territory of the country belongs to all who are ethnic wherever they may be right (and perhaps thousands of years) and does not belong instead to the expelled who lived there before the foundation of the ethnic state. It is still a democratic state? It is not enough. Imagine that in this state has survived a small ethnic minority ethnic wrong. A growing minority population that constitutes about one fourth of the total population. These people are treated as citizens of the second degree, in economic activities, in the courts, in daily life, etc.., Where one thousand shall be subjected to discrimination.
Discrimination more serious concerns land tenure. The state has secured another law of the founding "Democracy" ethnic, that 93% of the land of the country remains in the hands of ethnic right. The sale of landed property (real estate and built on them) should only occur between people of this ethnic group. However, you can buy new land that was 7% ethnic minority, so you will expand ethnicity property right. It is still a democratic state? Faced with these ethnic discrimination the state grants a limited right to vote and a limited right to criticize the discriminated minority. With just these political rights in the face to the thousands of discrimination to ensure that the state is democratic? Already I hear the defenders of Israel, because he is the person we are speaking, arise and protest against my last statement about the limited political rights of the Palestinian minority. Instead it is. Consider, for example the fact that Israel is forbidden to question the Jewish character of the state. It is prohibited to establish political parties that have such a program was different, not ethnic, but to all citizens. It is forbidden to fight for the implementation of UN resolution 194 which establishes the right of return of Palestinians expelled. It is forbidden to fight to abolish the founding of the state law that says that Palestine belongs to all Jews in the world and at any time one of them can go to Palestine to occupy a property that the army of the Jewish state has paid off in some of the Palestinian occupied territories. It is still a democratic state? Reverse the situation: imagine for a moment that the Italian state was proclaimed "Catholic" and provides that citizens of Italian Jews, or Protestants or others do not belong to this state, directly discriminate against them, prohibiting them from buying land or property Estate of Catholic citizens. On the other hand determines that Catholic citizens (whatever that might mean today) can not sell property to Jews, Protestants, etc., so that the land of Italy is increasingly concentrated in the hands of Catholics. Is left to non-Catholics the right to vote, but so that it does not prejudice the character "Catholic" state. Italy could still be called democratic? And I remember the defenders of Israel and the Jews in Italy are not one fourth of the population like the Palestinians in Israel. I remind them that even going forward in the way you are going forward there is a risk that in addition to a state ethnocratic Israel, also become a theocratic state, given the growing weight of men in Israeli politics.
"Compared to what we have said in this interview, what would your explanation of the Israeli onslaught against Gaza?"
Mann & ndash , If we look at what is happening now in Gaza in the historical context that somehow we have traced in this interview, we must conclude that it is a further step in the ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. If Israel he wanted a compromise with the Palestinians on a Palestinian state, well, the opportunities are not missed.
Supporters of Israel argue that the Palestinians were not to accept the partition of Palestine in 1948. But who would have accepted? What nation would accept the division of its territory was also imposed from the UN, (then, remember, consisted of one quarter of the current states and was under the control of U.S. and Soviet Union). And if the UN had also imposed the implementation of Resolution 194 calling on Israel to allow Palestinians expelled by force to come back, then things would have been very different. But Israel rejected the resolution, sure of the USA, which was already under the influence of the American Zionist lobby. He did much more, assassinated the UN mediator Folke Bernadotte who was preparing a new policy. Israel wanted an ethnically pure state and nothing else. This is Zionism. After the 1967 war, Israel did not accept Resolution 242, which required even the Israeli withdrawal from occupied territories. Indeed, against all international law, began to colonize. Israel did not accept any compromise during the Oslo talks and continued even colonization. In 2002 the Arab states offered Israel recognition and peace in return for Israeli withdrawal to the 1967 borders, but Israel refused, began the construction of the wall that encompasses vast territories occupied Palestinian population which is slowly expelled, and always continues with the construction of settlements and the suffocation of the Palestinians in East Jerusalem
When in 2006, Hamas won democratic elections and formed its own government on all Palestinians in the West Bank, Gaza and East Jerusalem, Israel did not recognize him and with the U.S. and with the complicity of the EU, initiated a policy Division of Palestinians. In this policy served the corrupt Abu Mazen. To safeguard the unity, Hamas agreed to a compromise with him and that part of Fatah supports him, formed him, a government of national unity. Instigated by the U.S. and Israel, Abu Mazen, also convinced that the new government was born of the weakness of Hamas, in Gaza organized a plot to deduce the military power of the rival party. But failed and were the followers of Abu Mazen to be driven out of Gaza. Then, Abbas dissolved the government formed a loyal and left with his ministers that Israel halt, Members, leaders of Hamas throughout the West Bank. He was engaged in negotiations for a peace agreement with Israel (Annapolis). They obviously did not lead to anything, because Israel does not give up anything and wants people like Abu Mazen that lends itself to fiction eternal negotiations and while advancing with the colonization and ethnic cleansing. For Israel, so now it is essential to eliminate Hamas, killing or arresting all the leaders. This is the way the criminal attack against Gaza. Win it and give it to Abu Mazen with which to continue the fiction of the negotiations. If Hamas resists and Israel is forced to cease the attack and retreat, will be Abu Mazen's first defeated, but the whole strategy will fail in Israel and the Americans.
AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF Mauro Manno
I come from a working-class immigrant father and having been abroad, I was born in a mining region in Northern Europe. I live in Naples.
I am 57 years old. I studied classical high school abroad and then returned to Italy, I attended the University of East Naples, where I graduated in Western European languages (Germanic). I speak several languages and I have a long experience as a translator. Riscrittomi University after the first degree, I did historical studies but have not completed. I did not, however, never stopped to investigate issues of history and geopolitics. My interest is mainly directed to the Middle East, the Israel-Palestine conflict, Islam and political Zionism. I also study the influence of Zionism on U.S. policy. Among my publications, I report / The nature of Zionism /, a study of the historical and ideological convergence between the Zionists on the one hand and the other anti-Semites and Nazis. An argument that supporters of Israel shall keep carefully concealed. I claim with pride to be the author of / An Open Letter to President Napolitano /, written when he rashly, brought together anti-Zionism and antisemitism.
I was part of the group of professors of the Master "Enrico Mattei" in the Middle East and I attended the University of Teramo, with my speech to the Zionist lobby in America, the Conference on the Middle East (17 - April 19, 2007), which has sparked much controversy. I am a founding member of the Institute Enrico Mattei Studies on the Middle East (IEMASMO), based in Rome, a private research institute that operates in a spirit of friendship with all peoples of the region but always independently of any influence of states or governments.
