- Can a person really go on a North American speaking tour
with a speech called, The Dirty War Against The Settlers, and actually
attract audiences? The answer is a resounding Yes. The following precis
includes only highlights that may be of interest to a broad readership.
I wish I could list and thank so many people who pitched in for me. Suffice
to say, in time you'll know my gratitude.
-
- Unwanted Attention in New York.
-
- The fascistic anti-smoking laws are just a test
to see how far people will obey unconstitutional laws. For those who indulge,
a cigarette at a bar is a basic right. Yet no one fought back as they stood
outside in 20 degree F cold for no reason other than obedience to barbaric
laws.
-
- On a personal level, if I want to be accommodated
with almost everyone in my circles, I have to go outside their homes to
savor my unhealthy habit. The unflappable Ray Antoky housed me in his empty
parents' home in Brooklyn on condition that I smoke outside. For three
days I stepped onto the freezing stoop when I lit up.
-
- It was on evening two when I stepped out and within
seconds a taxi sped to the curb opposite me and stopped. A sexy lady with
a Latino accent stepped out and asked me if I'd like to join her in the
cab.
-
- I turned down the invitation. I wasn't in the
mood to be drugged and videotaped.
-
- The next evening, I was in Zeev Brenner's studio
being interviewed on his popular radio show. Ray sat beside me being as
quiet as he was able while I did my shpiel. Throughout the show, people
called in to ask me questions. We counted some ten calls backed up. But
when the time came to take the calls, Zeev was mystified. All the calls
but two had disappeared, apparently cut off.
-
- The first call, from Passaic was from a teenage
boy named Shai, who thanked me for telling the truth about the Rabin murder.
But the next call was not typical, and from the start, sounded scripted.
The caller began, "I love the Yidden of Yesha." Zeev soon after
noted, "No one has ever called them the Yidden of Yesha before. It
sounded phoney." The caller then proceeded to rant at me, calling
me a liar three times before Zeev finally cut him off.
-
- We recounted the incident and Ray concluded that
we had witnessed a moderately high level piece of interference.
-
- Buffalo Dan
-
- Next stop was Denver and the American Freedom
Network, as expected, did a fine job, attracting about 200 to two sessions.
But the biggest impression the city made on me was not political but culinary.
-
- Last year, I was being toured in Birmingham,
Alabama on the way to a late dinner. After passing 2 dozen chain restaurants,
I suggested, "I'm in Alabama, let's go to a local place serving down
home cooking." My hostess replied, "I think there's one left,
but it's in a bad neighborhood."
-
- I never realized how much the chains had driven
local cuisine out of business. I love Southern cooking, especially the
fried chicken, and there wasn't one independent restaurant serving it,
right in the heart of Dixie.
-
- Two weeks before, my Sacramento host took me
for Southern fried chicken and I ordered thighs, preferring always dark
meat. I looked at the pieces and insisted they were breasts, based on their
white meat. My host explained that the way America raises poultry now makes
all meat whiter. The birds are penned from birth and fed growth hormones
with their feed. They never so much as flap a wing and they mature unnaturally.
So muscle doesn't form and the meat is over-soft.
-
- He forgot to add, the growth hormones are
probably the main cause of the obesity plague. If hormones can fatten poultry
and beef, think what they do to people after they consume the meat.
-
- I asked my Denver host, Daniel Segard, to
find a restaurant that served local specialties. I ended up with a buffalo
steak and it was both different than beef, and superb. And kosher. The
Israeli kosher diet is way too predictable. Someone should start importing
buffalo carcasses.
-
- Mystery In Highland
-
- Next came Highland in Southern California, home
of the surfers, beach blondes and hot rods, At least, that's what I was
hoping for. The reality wasn't quite as glamorous but the people, non-surfers
all, were terrific.
-
- It was there that my hosts, Peter and Christie
Michas and I met Cheryl Knorr. She had written me previously, claiming
her father had been murdered by the Chairman of the Council On Foreign
Relations, Pete Peterson and William Leavitt, a biologist arrested after
9-11 on suspicion of spreading anthrax. It was so important she meet me,
that she drove from San Diego, three hours away, to do so.
-
- Obviously, the story sounds mad. But Cheryl
was both charming and sane. Peter and I worked for a day sorting out the
details and records. We both agreed. The claims checked out. One more witness
to the evil had come forward.
-
- My lecture was given in a restaurant. Two nights
before, the owner of an adjacent liquor store, and one of his employees,
were shot to death in a robbery. The sidewalk was awash in memorial flowers.
This was not the Southern California of my imagination.
-
- The restaurant was full for the lecture and
I was revved up. It was my best presentation of the tour. And it was professionally
recorded on DVD. The Michases made me a copy, so I now have my first DVD.
If anyone wants to order The Dirty War Against The Settlers on DVD, just
write me. If I receive enough response, I'll make a cover and copy the
master for you.
-
- Coming Into Los Angeles
-
- By far the most emotional crowd was in the Mogen
David Shul in Los Angeles. Many in the audience really didn't know my work,
and not a few were Israelis. They were stunned and some tried to fight
back my reality by vocally denying it. Yet by the end, most of the doubters
had been assuaged and one of the Israelis provided me with disturbing information.
-
- A section of this tour's lecture discusses how
the 1976 Lebanese Civil War was ignited. After the Yom Kippur War, Henry
Kissinger (CFR) shuttled between Damascus and Jerusalem to find a way to
end hostilities. Syria's Assad insisted on getting the Golan Heights and
Rabin refused him. So Kissinger came up with a really cute solution to
the impasse. Syria also coveted Lebanon. Things would be arranged so it
would get Lebanon instead. The CIA's operatives blew up a bus full of Christian
children, the war was on and Syria came in as peacemakers.
-
- I ask the audience, "Do you really believe
the Syrians blew up Rafik Hariri last month? If they really wanted him
dead, they'd have done it quietly, not blow up Beirut's hotel district.
And how did the American government know within minutes of the blast that
Syria was behind it? They're back fomenting another civil war in Lebanon,
which may spread to Syria.
-
- "What worries me more was the terror attack
on the Tel Aviv nightclub a few days later. Within seconds, the Israeli
government blamed Syria. How could it have known that 30 seconds after
the attack? I can imagine a meeting where a compromise was reached. Yes,
we'll give you one attack but not with big casualties. Have him detonate
half an hour before the club opens."
-
- An Israeli talked to me after the lecture. He
reported, "My friend is in the police. He told me that the police
were told that an attack would take place two hours before it did. They
knew it was going to happen."
-
- "So," I asked, "Why wasn't it stopped?"
-
- "I don't know and either does my friend.
They didn't even go into high alert."
-
- The next evening, my host Stewart Waxman invited
me to a movie premiere of a film of which he was the music arranger. The
film is called When Do We Eat and stars Michael Lerner, Jack Klugman, Mili
Avital and Leslie Ann Warren. It is a scathing view of a family Passover
seder. I watched the movie with Moshe Parry who was appalled at the portrayal
of the Jews, especially the haredi character. After some thought I disagreed.
It is an important film for showing the near total deterioration of American
Jewish values in just three generations. It needed to be said.
-
- The Grim Beauty Of Toronto
-
- Thanks to a 90 minute interview on Richard Syrett's
popular radio show, the Toronto crowd was very different this year. Young
people, even a couple of Arabs, joined the regulars at the Toronto Zionist
Cultural Centre. I made it clear from the beginning that both Arabs and
Jews were being equally screwed by the same cabal of wickedness. The newcomers
smiled broadly and even left with books by the end of the talk.
-
- However, I made it equally clear that the surrender
of Gush Katif has to be prevented at all costs. And that, to people everywhere
I went, meant a military coup. From my first stop at the Brooklyn synagogue
right through to Toronto, I heard the same question over and over again;
"When is the coup already?" But Toronto was a bit different.
When I mentioned the issue of the coup in my speech, I received a prolonged
ovation.
-
- The question period included a timely matter.
Moshe Feiglin was to address the same organization in two days and the
question posed was, what should we ask him. I answered, "Ask him why
he broke up Zo Artzeinu to join the Likud. Ask him why he expected his
loyal followers to join a corrupt political party for him. As we heard
tonight, the leaders of Yesha were murdered to prevent organized opposition
to their sellout. Maybe others were co-opted as well. Find out."
-
- Next question: What can we do to save Gush Katif
and Israel?
-
- My reply: "Absolutely nothing from Canada.
Your one option is to travel to Gush Katif and stand up to the removal
forces. I only hope the Gush Katif leaders are smart enough to build a
tent city for you to stay in."
-
- This was not what I was supposed to answer. No
one wanted to hear that personal action was the last remaining option.
And no one would be flying to Gush Katif any day soon.

- Updating The Correspondence
-
- After a week of not opening my mail, I faced an
avalanche of new information.
-
- As I downloaded, I noticed a new pattern of desperation.
I received three separate open letters to leaders: two to Sharon, one to
Bush. I didn't read them and do the writers actually believe that Bush
and Sharon will?
-
- Speculation is rife about the new Sharon bodyguard
for obvious enough reasons:
-
- 1995: GUARDED YITZHAK RABIN. 2005: RESPONSIBLE FOR SHARON'S
SECURITY.
- Two inquiry committees determined: No fault in guards'
performance during assassination. Was now decided to promote one of them
to direct security department in unit for VIP security. "He's an excellent
officer."
-
- A few people suggested that Yoram Rubin will be
Sharon's new protector. That's not my information. Rabin's true murderer
is living high off his hogs in Maryland. Give him a call. Let him know
that you know he did it.
-
- Yoram Rubin, Chief of Security at the Israeli Embassy
in Washington
- lives at:
- 1725 Wilmart St.
- Rockville MD
- Tel: 301-984-1875
-
- Vice Prime Minister Shimon Peres Announces
- the Establishment of the First University in the Galilee
region
-
- Businessman Arnon Milchan Donates 100 million dollars
to Establish
-
- Vice Prime Minister Shimon Peres announced today the
donation of one hundred million dollars by U.S. businessman Arnon Milchan
to establish the first university in the Galilee region. Peres, whose mandate
includes the development of the Negev and Galilee regions, added that the
university would be built in Carmiel.
-
- Anyone closely associated with Peres pretty well must
be satanic but Milchan produced a film that shows he has insider information.
Look at his, The Devil's Advocate with Al Pacino to understand the implication.
-
- Some interesting media since I've been away:

- israelinsider: Briefs: Pipes and Plaut expose crime of
Biblical Proportions
-
- FRIENDS
-
- The following are three of my closest friends so I'm
going to try to give them a boost.
-
- Jerry Mersel sat me down and explained that the army's
role in the Gush Katif removal has to be altered. If enough soldiers know
they are working for all that is bad, the IDF could lose its taste for
the operation. He offered me a thousand shekels to give my Hebrew edition
of Save Israel to soldiers for free. I agreed to do so, charging only for
gas to the nearest bus station where soldiers meet. If you'd like to join
in, let me know.
