The classified diplomatic cables published by Wikileaks are the Pentagon Papers of the pro-Israel right…one might easily wonder if Assange isn’t instead a clandestine agent of Dick Cheney and Bibi Netanyahu
What comes through most strongly from the Wikileaks documents, however, is that U.S. Middle East policy is premised on a web of self-justifying fictions that are flatly contradicted by the assessments of American diplomats and allies in the region. Starting with Bush’s second term and continuing through the Obama Administration, Washington has ignored the strong and repeated pleas of its regional allies—from Jerusalem to Riyadh—to stop the Iranian nuclear program.
Perhaps the most disturbing revelation in the documents is the extent to which both the Bush and Obama Administrations have concealed Iran’s war against the United States and its allies in Iraq, Lebanon, Israel, and the Arab Gulf states, even as those same allies have been candid in their diplomatic exchanges with us. U.S. servicemen and -women are being dispatched to combat zones in Iraq and Afghanistanwhere they are fighting Iranian soldiers and assets in a regional war with the Islamic Republic that our officials dare not discuss, lest they have to do something about it.

Or, as Prime Minister Benyamin Netanyahu said yesterday, (I’m paraphrasing) the information would not be considered damaging if only political leaders would say in public the same things that they say in private.
That would be much more credible advice, however, if “Bibi” would adhere to his own tough talk and not give away Israel’s land to her sworn enemies.
This is a Economic COUP by the BRIC nations as the force the collapse of the Euro away from the Free market structure and bail it out with the Promise of Raw material resource supply in exchange for control of the Euro as the BRIC nations Trade Currency , and this will Isolate the USA away from these Resources unless the USA wants to trade something other than Dollars .
