Well some one in Tel Aviv might be in control but the Knesset sure isnt.

Digging into the above a little further, as I tend to do for my own amusement. I noticed a stark contradiction with regards to information on Amir Peretz in his Wiki.

As Defense Minister, Peretz has shown himself to be more hawkish than previously thought. Probably, this is because he, along with the Prime Minister Ehud Olmert, are eager to prove that they are "tough on terror", given that neither of them has any military record.
en.wikipedia.org...

Which is what I was aware of and had heard numerous times. But...

[Peretz] served in the Israel Defense Forces as a matériel officer in the 202nd paratroopers brigade and reached the rank of captain. During the Yom Kippur War in 1973, Peretz was badly wounded at Mitla Pass. He spent a year in the hospital recuperating. After leaving the hospital, he bought a farm in the village of Nir Akiva. Still in a wheelchair, he began growing vegetables and flowers for export.

A Captain in the IDF and badly wounded during the Yom Kippur War? That's hardly a complete lack of "military record". Who sowed the seeds of doubt in Peretz's background? Did Peretz do it himself to secure the leadership of the traditionally dovish Labour party? Very interesting indeed.

Im getting a gut feeling that Peretz is a hawkish Trojan Horse.

Far from it thomsonite, I was just being open minded to who might be pulling the strings in Israel. I believe Bush is a puppet of an elite cabal so why couldnt Olmert be just the same?


Where have I said anywhere that he is not? Of course he's a Rat-Bastard Puppet on a string, just like most of the others.

PM Olmert and the his Defence Minister Peretz are the first Israelis to hold those positions and not have been veterans. Therefore it would not be without precedent to speculate that the Israeli military could ignore their authourity.


That's what I was getting at in the first place, what authority is there to ignore? Olmert seems to give his full backing to these actions, and they all just spin a load of turd like we have seen here today with the Pro-War Fiends trying to blame Hez'bollah for breaking the 'cease-fire,' to cloak their evil deeds.

But as far as the facts are on the ground, it matters little if Israel is being led by PM Olmert and the Knesset or a rogue military/industrialist cabal. It still remains that Israel is responsible for dozens more war crimes in the last few weeks. An addendum to an already prolific list of war crimes and gross human rights abuses.


Indeed, indeed. Although I would say it does still matter who Olmert is, and what aims the Zionists attend to achieve with all this. You know as well as I do this isn't going to stop here, and nobody can pull Israel up on their atrocious mass-murder.
