Pro-Israel Neo-Con Hand-Picked McCain VP

Zionists pleased as punch fanatical Alaska governor has been pushed to fron=
t of U.S. national politics

By Michael Collins Piper =97 AFP

Win or lose in her bid for the vice presidency, Sarah Palin will nonetheles=
s be a front-runner for the GOP
presidential nomination in 2012. That=92s =93good news=94 to the hard-line =
pro- Israel cabal=97known as the
=93neo-conservatives=94=97who brought America to bankruptcy pursuing the wa=
r in Iraq and who still dream of war
against Iran.


It turns out that one of the chief neo-conservative tacticians=97William Kr=
istol, editor of Zionist billionaire
Rupert Murdoch=92s Weekly Standard, and Mrs. Palin=92s foremost cheerleader=
 in the mass media=97is the very
person who hand-picked Palin as John McCain=92s running mate.


Both The Washington Post and The Telegraph of London revealed Kristol=92s p=
ivotal role in ushering the
previously little-known Palin to national prominence. For its part, the Tel=
egraph noted on Sept. 16:

Sources in theMcCain camp, the Republican Party and Washington think tanks =
say Mrs. Palin was
identified as a potential future leader of the neo-conservative cause in Ju=
ne 2007. That was when the
annual summer cruise organized by the right-of-center Weekly Standard magaz=
ine docked in Juneau, the
Alaskan state capital, and the pundits on board took tea with Gov. Palin.

The Post reported that the meeting between Palin and Kristol, along with Kr=
istol hanger-on Fred Barnes,
was initiated by a member of Palin=92s staff.

In any event, the Telegraph added, =93her case as John McCain=92s running m=
ate was later advanced
vociferously by William Kristol,=94 whose Standard touted Palin =97 immedia=
tely after their meeting=97as =93the most
popular governor=94 and mentioned her in subsequent issues of The Weekly St=
andard no less than 40
additional times.

In fact, as early as June 30=97at a time when McCain was said to be resisti=
ng pressures from those who
opposed McCain=92s choice of Sen. Joe Lieberman as his running mate=97Krist=
ol appeared on Rupert
Murdoch=92s Fox News and predicted Palin would be McCain=92s choice, this a=
t a time when Palin was hardly
known outside Alaska.

Writing at the dailybeast.com, Internet blogger Scott Horton pointed out fu=
rther that:

Kristol is one of the few conservative columnists whose support of Palin ha=
s been unflinching. He has
used his space as a New York Times columnist to tout her candidacy repeated=
ly. But in the process Kristol
has never bothered to disclose his role in the decision making process that=
 led to the Palin pick. Kristol=92s
Weekly Standard has figured as Palin=92s chief defender, and its writers ha=
ve gone after even those who
dare to pose questions about Palin=92s candidacy. Bill Kristol, it seems, h=
as much at stake in the Palin
candidacy.

Underscoring the role of the =93neo-cons=94 in grooming Palin, the small-ci=
rculation (but highly influential) New
Yorker=97published by the billionaire Newhouse family (hard-line Zionists k=
nown for neo-conservative
sympathies)=97featured an eye-opening cover story on October 27 entitled =
=93How McCain found Palin,=94
subtitled =93She wanted the nomination=97and Washington insiders helped her=
 get it.=94

The detailed account demonstrated that Palin=92s national prominence (and h=
er path to the vice presidential
nomination) was entirely the result of concerted propaganda and tactical ma=
neuvering by Kristol and his
closest collaborators.

Perhaps more disturbing was the revelation that it was controversial politi=
cal operative Dick Morris=97 who
earlier helped launch Bill Clinton=92s rise in Arkansas and then in the nat=
ional arena=97who was a key player
=93in=94 on laying the stage for the until-then-obscure Palin=92s introduct=
ion to the GOP.

Morris was among another group of neo-cons=97 associated with the National =
Review magazine=97who landed
in Alaska on their own cruise (just a few weeks after the Kristol-Weekly St=
andard clique held court). The
New Yorker said =93according to several accounts . . . no connection made t=
hat day was more meaningful
than the one struck between Palin and Dick Morris.=94

It is interesting the New Yorker should unveil the Palin-Morris connection =
resulting from the National Review
stop-over in Alaska: S.I. Newhouse, publisher of the magazine, was a close =
friend of Morris=92s cousin,
devout pro-Israel political operative and =93mob lawyer=94 Roy Cohn, who wa=
s also close friend of National
Review founderWilliam F. Buckley, Jr.

As far back as the mid-1950s=97working with Cohn=97Buckley was a godfather =
of the modern neoconservative
movement, a transmogrification of the old-line Trotskyite communists (for s=
trategic reasons) into a =93new=94
brand of =93conservative internationalism=94 in opposition to traditional A=
merican nationalism. The New Yorker
also cited the work of a young conservative, Adam Brickley, who established=
 a website promoting Palin for
vice president. It seems as if his website suddenly began getting widesprea=
d promotion after the neo-cons
began lining up for Palin behind the scenes.

While Brickley said he felt that the longer he worked on the website, =93th=
e less I felt I was driving it.
Something else was at work.=94 Brickley said he believed it was =93the hand=
 of God,=94 but the evidence points
more directly to earthly elements.

The New Yorker describes the theological background of the Palin booster:

Brickley=92s family, once evangelical Christians, now practice what he call=
s =93Messianic Judaism.=94 They
believe that Jesus is the Messiah, but they also observe the Jewish holiday=
s and attend synagogue; as
Brickley puts it, =93Jesus was Jewish, so to be like Him you need to be Jew=
ish, too.=94

Following her selection as McCain=92s running mate, Mrs. Palin quickly made=
 it clear she shares the
neo-conservative fanaticism for Israel, loudly banging the drum against Ira=
n and bragging that she keeps
an Israeli flag in her Alaska office.

Palin=92s official foreign policy handlers are two key neo-conservative str=
ategists: Randy Scheunemann and
Steve Biegun. One chronicler of the neo-conservatives, author Jacob Heilbru=
nn, has asserted it=92s clear
Palin =93has soaked up the neo-con view of the world.=94
