Kerry Kover for Kovert War

It's the new KKK, the Kerry kover for Kovert war. That Sen . Kerry has gone bad.

Sen. John Kerry, who facilitated Obama’s illegal and unconstitutional war on Libya, is now greasing the way for a cover-up of the Benghazi attacks. At a Senate Foreign Relations Committee meeting on Wednesday, Kerry killed the bill introduced by Sen. Bob Corker (R-TN) and Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC), which would have required the State Department to report to Congress on last week’s attacks in Libya, Egypt, and Yemen within 30 days.
Instead, as Josh Rogin reports in The Cable blog, Kerry said the Corker-DeMint bill was not needed, because the State Department is setting up a panel (supposedly “independent and bipartisan”) to investigate the Benghazi attack. Kerry said Wednesday that Deputy Secretary of State Tom Nides had told him the State Department had already begun setting up the panel, which, Kerry said, would be independently appointed and accountable to Congress. However, this panel, known as an Accountability Review Board, is only required to be convened within 60 days of the attack, and then after conducting its examination, it will report its findings to Congress — which clearly Obama and Kerry hope will be long after the November elections.
Sen. DeMint’s reaction was this: “The attacks on American embassies and diplomats are outrageous. The Administration owes the American people detailed answers on how this happened and how it can be prevented in the future. It now appears these violent acts may have been coordinated terrorist attacks against America around the anniversary of 9/11. There may have even been warnings beforehand. Americans need to know if we were properly prepared and what steps must be taken to protect our diplomats in these dangerous environments.”
The House Oversight Committee sent a letter today asking for results of this probe by October 4th.
FURTHER: According to late news reports, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton has appointed veteran diplomat and former Ambassador Thomas Pickering to head the Accoutability Review Board. The highly-respected Pickering is one of the most senior U.S. foreign service officers, and was just in the news for the Iran Project report warning of the heavy costs of a military attack on Iran. Pickering’s appointment suggests that there is a fierce battle going on within the Adminstration and the State Department, over Obama’s complicity in, and cover-up for, the murder of Ambassador Stevens.

Netanyahu the Yahoo Freaks Out

Netanyahu the yahoo freaks out, because people in Israel and the USJOC Us Joint Chiefs of Staff, are jamming up his war with Iran plan.

One day after the Israeli newspaper Yediot Ahronoth published the story that the U.S. will not "have Israel's back" in a strike against Iran, Prime Minister Netanyahu had a fit against his own Security Cabinet and cancelled the council's meeting on Wednesday, Sept. 5, even as the officials were meeting about Iran.
In a wild rant, Bibi said that he was dismissing the NSC because of "leaks" to the media that violated the "trust" of the security cabinet. He railed that he has "a responsibility" to the citizens and the "security of the state," to protect secrets; therefore, "I am breaking up this meeting."
The real sin of the "leak" was that Ynet news (the English version of Yedioth) had revealed that Israel's intelligence agencies have reports about Iran's nuclear program that "conflict" with Bibi's war drive, and that these conflicting views were affecting members of that body. As of late Sept. 5, Bibi was reportedly considering polygraphing all members of his own security council at the behest of Energy and Water Resources Minister Uzi Landau, who told the press, "Until the person responsible for the leak is found, this forum cannot be convened."
Bibi's paranoia has escalated over the last week, ever since U.S. Joint Chiefs of Staff Chairman, Gen. Martin Dempsey's August 30th Media Roundtable at the U.S. Embassy in London, where he openly challenged Obama's war policy, not only on Iran, but also on the question of attacking Syria over chemical weapons.
Reviewing the last week's statements and actions by U.S. military circles that oppose the British Obama war, it is obvious why Bibi is livid: he sees that Israel's establishment circles are operating in parallel with the U.S. military opposition to the outbreak of world war. The following is a brief summary of the last week's developments, which were reported as they unfolded as LPAC and EIRNS slugs.
* On Aug. 31, one day after Dempsey's London statements, Time magazine runs a major "exclusive" story that the long-delayed U.S.-Israel military exercise called "Austere Challenge," is being scaled back from 5,000 troops to "1,500" and perhaps "as few as 1,200." Israeli media reports begin screeching that this reduction shows that relations between the U.S. and Israel have seriously deteriorated (see separate slug).
* August 31-Sept. 4: Many thousands of articles have been put out repeating Gen. Dempsey's statement that he does not want to be "complicit" in a unilateral Israeli attack on Iran.
* Sept. 3: CIA Director Gen. David Petraeus reportedly arrives in Israel for secret meetings. Most of the U.S. press reports that he is going to Israel to assuage concerns about Dempsey's remarks. But, instead of a calmer climate, the Israeli media continue to explode with even more stories about U.S./Israel tensions over the British Netanyahu/Barak war against Iran.
* Sept. 4: Israeli press issue a number of serious warnings against Netanyahu. Ynet news publishes the report that the U.S. has sent an indirect message to Iran that it will not back an Israeli strike if Iran doesn't retaliate against the U.S.; and Ynet publishes the "leak" about Israeli intelligence disagreements with Bibi's Iran danger assessment. The same day, former CIA Chief Michael Hayden gives an interview to Ha'aretz in which he cautions Israel against striking Iran.
* Sept. 5: Prime Minister Netanyahu cancels his security cabinet meeting in a rage against "leaks." For the record, Haaretz reporter Amir Oren calls Netanyahu a "serial violator of Israeli gag orders," saying that Bibi's denouncing of leaks is "sadder" than Casanova denouncing adulterers.

Joe Kennedy III vs. Rachel Brown

Voters in Massachusetts' 4th Congressional district certainly got a clear picture of the only candidate anybody sane could vote for in yesterday's Milford Daily News story on their choices, Democrat and Republican, in this Thursday's primary for the seat held by Democratic Congressman Barney Frank, who is not seeking re-election.
The only "name" running in the primary, Democratic candidate, Joseph P. Kennedy III, tells people he can learn from seniors, defends "socially-liberal" gender issues, and offers small businesses for people who "aren't asking for much."
The presentation which follows is the case for Rachel Brown, "the returning challenger" to Frank, and there is nothing safe or small-minded here:
"Brown is a LaRouche Democrat whose views typically do not align with the mainstream notions of her party. She calls for the impeachment of President Obama, comparing his health care policy to that of Adolf Hilter in 1939 Germany.
"Brown wants to see reinstatement of Glass-Steagal — an act passed by Congress in 1933 that prohibited commercial banks from partaking in investment activities. The act was repealed in 1999, which, Brown believes, devastated the economy.
"'The issues facing the country now are thermonuclear war and hyperinflation, both of which are imminent if Obama is re-elected. The only reason we haven't passed Glass-Steagall, which is the only way to stop the bailouts causing hyperinflation, and the threat of war behind it, is because of resistance from British-run Obama,'" Brown said in statement.
"Brown also proposes investing in space and science research, including the North American Water and Power Alliance water project, which she said would solve the water crisis and create 6 million productive jobs, and provide full funding for NASA."
The article then plods through the other four candidates, who have nothing more of relevance to say than Joe Kennedy did.
