German Dhimmitude – Back Stabbing Ally

Check this out! The German criminal system is preparing to file charges against retiring Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld, Attorney General Tony Gonzales and former CIA Director George Tenet. Do you think I am passing along an Internet hoax?

This is all related to extracting information that has America safe. Information extracted at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo Bay. The issue: was the information gathered by torture and if so, American authorities on the highest levels must be held accountable.

Atlas Shrugs speaks as to the kind of Ally in the War on Terror Germany has become to enter this kind of moment.

Could Robert Gates be a DP Flunky?

Thanks to Prophecy Update I found this article from Carolyn Glick. Glick is an Israeli columnist that usually clicks with my point of view, thus when I have the opportunity to read her insights I take them.

In her article – “Olmert's ill-timed Washington visit” – her theme is that Prime Minister Olmert’s impending visit with President Bush is meaningless because a hostile Democratic Party Congress will not help President Bush help Prime Minister Olmert. The thing that caught my eye is the portion that talks about the demise of Rumsfeld and the appointment of Robert Gates as Secretary of Defense (Senate confirmation pending).

Apparently Gates is part of the “pro-Arabist” part of the Republican Party. Gates has had close associations with Brent Scowcroft and James Baker who have towed a line less favorable to the interests of Israel and more favorable with the Arab world. Gates has also been associated with former President Carter National Security Advisor Zbigniew Brzezinski. Democrat Brzezinski has had a tendency to blame conflicts in the Middle East on Israel.

So you get the picture, Gates has the image to suck up to the Mohammedan Middle East to the detriment of Israel. Gates might be the Democratic Party dream confirmation for a Bush Appointee.
