The blank check and seemingly endless supply of powerful military weapons the U.S. politicians give to Israel virtually guarantees Israel will not stop bullying the Palestinians and stealing their land. This, or course, means the U.S. will remain a target of Islamic insurgents.
On the taped message bin Laden made it very clear a key reason for the attacks on the U.S., including the most recent Christmas attack, is America's blind support for the Jewish state. He said, "It is unfair you enjoy a safe life while our brothers in Gaza
suffer greatly... Our attacks will continue as long as you support
Israel. America will never dream of security unless we will have it in reality in Palestine."
Michael Scheuer, who was the leader of the bin Laden team in the CIA, wrote a thought provoking and revealing book called Imperial Hubris. In the book he writes, "The question is whether U.S. interests require
Americans to be Israel 's protectors and endure the endless
blood-and-treasure costs of that role. Status quo U.S. policy toward
Israel will result in unending war with Islam."
The mainstream media does not report the truth of the costly catastrophic U.S. Middle East foreign policy. For example, what bin Laden said in his message about Israel was not, to my knowledge, covered by the major media outlets. It is possible that it was mentioned, but it was not given the coverage it needs in order to let the American people know what is going on. Surely, if the reality of the situation could get through the established media's virtual blackout, the American people would not tolerate this deadly and tragic nonsense.
