		<description>Wellen's poorly engineered-double -talking -innuendo-ridden propaganda  should inform the brains at DV that they have been had.

Even the "crisis management"   is childishly filled with the same standard strategy. 
Wellen's bungling yuppie sales pitch makes Goebbels look sophisticated.

 Wellen has been hacking and spewing his Israeli  knuckle- balls for 
years, and getting away with it.
Check out his double message "pieces" on his phony websites.

"Because of the oil," says Greenspan "exposing" the oil culprits who put slick peeyar into the  Goy minds.

"Because of the oil," says Dr. Strangelove Kissinger "exposing" the oil culprits ...
What a pitch! 

 Bloodthirsty Israel Firsters, proud of their dual citizenship, are now openly DEMANDING that the U.S. killing colossus rain murder on the Iranian people. 
Only Israeli/Americans can have "dual citizenship" in both Israel and the U.S. It is a very special U. S. LAW for very special people.

At the end of his bloodthirsty "piece" preaching to Bush for murder and destruction in Iran, Norman Podhorentz lovingly says; 
"As an American and a Jew, I pray that he does."

It''s mandatory to murder Muslims, even though it "smacks" of anti-Muslimism. 
Pro-murder is a tough frame to push, but we are trying.

Just don't you dare call me a murdering Jew - that's anti-semitism, and I'll see you in court.
Hello; Alan,  Alan Dershowitz. 
I've been horribly injured by anti-semitism.  I demand justice.</description>

		<description>Wellen, when you dig  foul hole as deep as your first paragraph above, all the damage control in your peeyar bag of tricks can't fill it in. 

Blame it on bad training for framing murder with double messages.

You have been outed and you know it. 

 Get back in bed with Daniel Pipes.</description>

		<description>Gentlepersons, here is a writer. Layla Anwar, an Arab lady,  doesn't claim any new evidence. She doesn't have to. 

Is there anything in Iraq that the Americans have not destroyed ?
Anything at all ?
And you dare wonder why I detest you so much...And you have the audacity to come to my blog to question me about my origins, my location, my ideas, my roots, my sense of belonging...
What kind of a race are you ? What kind of a people are you ?
Yes, I said people not government. I am not politically correct. Your government is part of you and you are part of it. Like it or not.
And don't come and tell me in your sheepish ways that I know all too well : " Oh, but I did not vote for this one. "
I don't give a fuck whom you voted for or did not vote for. It is not my problem.
My problem is you. Your culture, your behavior, your mentality, your character, your haughtiness, your arrogance, your false pride, your denial, your collective stupidity and ignorance, your way of life which I find boring, empty and distasteful, your accent which is an affront to my ears...and to my senses.
I do not like you. Full stop.

I know, I know, some of you are good people...
I know, I know, America is not a homogenous group... I know all that shit.
It does not make one iota of difference in my life and that of other Iraqis.
I no longer give a damn about your nuances, your political leanings, how good or how bad you are...It is meaningless to me and to countless others.
Our lives have been ruined, totally ruined...We do not give a fuck about your nuances.
And all I know if that you have destroyed my country. Beyond repair.</description>

		<description>Russ,

If I offended you, I apologize. I find it hard to control the polemical level of my rants on certain matters. But there are a few things I felt you either left out or mislead the reader with. All writers do it — some more egregiously than others. You're not the worst, and I'm certainly not guilt-free. I admire the grace with which you've responded to your tough critics. If it was me, I probably wouldn't be able to control myself.

Anyway, I hope my post was more insightful than personally hurtful. Just don't be afraid to give "our" chosen enemies (Hezbollah, Iran, et al.) the benefit of the doubt in spite of the ZioNeoFascistic backlash sure to ensue in some venues. It wouldn't meant that you're sympathetic to their causes, or that you're abetting them; it would just show that you're  not a hack for the traitorous US foreign policy hijackers in Tel Aviv and D.C. (Sometimes there's a cost for being objective and scholarly. But who cares, as long as you're basing your content in historical facts, right? That's how I see it.)</description>

		<description>... and guess what Gerald..
The Zionist plan, diving Iraq, has just passed by the senate with the leadership of servant of the Zionist interest, Joseph Biden, with 75 – 23 of which 26 are from republicans and the majority are from Democrats including the AIPAC GIRL, Hilary Clinton.  I want to know WHO IS JOSEPH BIDEN  dares to send his troops and kills millions of people and then to divide the country into pieces so they can create more puppets such as Dubai and tribe of Kurdistan.  This is the beginning of the down of the empire into garbage bin.  This plan was publicized by an Iraqi servant of the Zionist in name of Kenan Makiya whose family benefited from Saddam and now is making fortune by serving Cheney and his associates and the Zionists.  People of Iraq call Makiya and his close friend Ahmed Chalabi , thief and criminal.  This is the beginning of more blood shed and until the Americans do not get lost out of  the MIDDLE EAST  they will face nothing but shame.

		<description>I quote the author. Disinformation and sheer frauds are in bold type:

&lt;i&gt;"After all, why attack Iran now when we didn’t in response to more obvious offenses, such as the hostage crisis, &lt;b&gt;the Marine Barracks bombing&lt;/b&gt; or &lt;b&gt;Hezbollah’s campaign against Israel in Lebanon&lt;/b&gt;?"&lt;/i&gt;



1) To this day, it is unknown for sure who bombed the barracks in '83, but we sure know who benefitted from the aftermath, PR-wise: Israel, as usual.

Neither Hezbollah nor Iran have claimed responsibility for the barracks bombing; other militants, however, have. But those other militants were ignored in order to go after a Shiite cleric who was said to be closely tied with a bigger fish and enemy of Israel and US neocons: Iran (according to anti-Iranian, pro-Israeli "intelligence organizations," of course). The Reagan White House needed a scapegoat in order to save face, so the U.S. military and the CIA bombed Lebanese civilians in the cleric's general vacinity and in other Shiite neighborhoods "thought to be hideouts" for Iranian-trained militants. Of course they missed the sheikh, but didn't miss scores of Lebanese civilians. Here's just &lt;a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-schwartz/cia-terror-bombings-bob-_b_54147.html" rel="nofollow"&gt;one account&lt;/a&gt;, straight from the CIA's "family jewels" documents recently released to the public.


2) Hezbollah's campaign against Israel? WTH are you snorting, Avigdor? 

It wasn't Hezbollah who flew F-16s and drones into a neighbor's airspace, carpet-bombing hospitals, roads, airports, power stations, mosques, churches, schools, and the like; it was Israhell. Get some facts from somewhere other than the Hasbara Handbook — perhaps a scholarly source, like this one: http://indexresearch.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html

How can you sit there and tell us that the United States did not retaliate blindly and directly for the '83 bombing, and blindly and indirectly for the Hezbollah acts of resistance (supplying weapons to Israel, giving public support, and refusing to call for a cease-fire)?

I thought DV published only authors whose material was credibly sourced in facts. WTF?</description>

But those other militants were ignored in order to go after a Shiite cleric who was said to be closely tied with a bigger fish and enemy of Israel and US neocons: Iran (according to anti-Iranian, pro-Israeli &#8220;intelligence organizations,&#8221; of course). The Reagan White House needed a scapegoat in order to save face, so the U.S. military and the CIA bombed Lebanese civilians in the cleric&#8217;s general vacinity and in other Shiite neighborhoods &#8220;thought to be hideouts&#8221; for Iranian-trained militants. Of course they missed the sheikh, but didn&#8217;t miss scores of Lebanese civilians. Here&#8217;s just <a href="http://www.huffingtonpost.com/michael-schwartz/cia-terror-bombings-bob-_b_54147.html" rel="nofollow">one account</a>, straight from the CIA&#8217;s &#8220;family jewels&#8221; documents recently released to the public.</p>
<p>2) Hezbollah&#8217;s campaign against Israel? WTH are you snorting, Avigdor? </p>
<p>It wasn&#8217;t Hezbollah who flew F-16s and drones into a neighbor&#8217;s airspace, carpet-bombing hospitals, roads, airports, power stations, mosques, churches, schools, and the like; it was Israhell. Get some facts from somewhere other than the Hasbara Handbook — perhaps a scholarly source, like this one: <a href="http://indexresearch.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html" rel="nofollow">http://indexresearch.blogspot.com/2006_09_01_archive.html</a></p>
<p>How can you sit there and tell us that the United States did not retaliate blindly and directly for the &#8216;83 bombing, and blindly and indirectly for the Hezbollah acts of resistance (supplying weapons to Israel, giving public support, and refusing to call for a cease-fire)?</p>
<p>I thought DV published only authors whose material was credibly sourced in facts. WTF?</p>

		<description>If you can't address the substance, go for the style. It's a yuppie game.

Frame the debate. Was the Lockerbie bomber a Sunni or a Shia?

Ahmadinejad  fugged dog on this spot. When was that?

Make suggestions. The schmuckery is stupid. Like the Palestinians. 

The Iranians must be blown to smithereens. Focus.  Islamofascism.

Remember who you are working for. Remember your training.  

We have the Palestinians in Concentration Camps. Iraq is destroyed. The Mossad will smite our enemies. Zionism forever.

We have Joe Lieberman and almost the entire Senate. We have our big money on Hilarious.

God likes us best.</description>

		<description>I particularly like this article. It presents arguments in a clear, reasoned fashion. It avoids name-calling and makes its points in a calm tone of voice. Several of the points are quite telling.

The timing on the Lockerbie "new evidence" makes me nervous, too. But I don't think accepting or denying an Iranian roll in that act of terrorism  affects the overall strength of the piece. Wellen's point that the Iranians have sometimes supported terrorism is conventional wisdom. I especially like the telling compilation of El Baradi quotes.

It strikes me that shouting and becoming angry while debating with someone is a way of trying to bully your interlocutor, not persuade him. I don't understand the point of ranting comments. They generally only serve to undermine the shouter's credibility.</description>

		<description>&lt;i&gt;I’m all for DV allowing these articles…I think the authors are not used to their offerings being handed back. Reading the surprise of the patronizing when confronted cracks me up.&lt;/i&gt;

Hue you are correct and why I like DV.</description>

		<description>JE, Iran funds Hezbollah. 

A Israeli bird told Wellen, and Wellen told us.

Hezbollah uses the funds to perform clitorectomies on innocent young girls, you know. They also buy ropes to hang their "homos."</description>
