Some of these statements are somewhat questionable and their style is disturbing, but overall, the assessment is credible and very mild. There is no danger of an immediate war. Yet, Israel keeps milking the USA for financial help in the development of weapons aimed at destroying the imminent threats posed by … nobody. Mainstream media in Israel and the USA is talking war. This seems to be a new variant on Aesop’s fable; in the one enacted by Netanyahu, the boy is the wolf.
Truthful Lies
It is very difficult to read Western media and dismiss the events surrounding the Iran-Israel bilateral relations. A disaster is being cooked; the cook is a Westerner. A subtle reminder of this came in the form of the odd article reported here. Think about it. Haaretz placed it as the central item in the “Diplomacy and Defense” section, but only months after the statements were given.The more serious among the readers probably stopped reading it after they found the age of the item. Then, access to the article was restricted. It was a locked item, accessible only to subscribers. Haaretz wanted to restrict access to the news and keep track of who read it.In Hebrew there is a definition for such a behavior; the phrase can roughly be translated as “to escape duty,” it means to do the minimum possible under given circumstances. Haaretz daily plays the drums of war.Yet, one day the war will be over. The entire world will then discover that the accusations against Iran were false, as those regarding the Iraqi WMD were. That day, Haaretz will claim to have dutifully performed its journalistic job. “We published and warned,” they’ll proudly say, forgetting to disclose the delay and restrictions on the item.Western readers keep ignoring propagandistic techniques used on them, while enthusiastically applauding their deceitful leaders. Deep in his cold tomb, Goebbels is proud on his faithful followers.\
