Mossad Concludes Netanyahu Wrong About Iran’s Nuclear Program
Stories: al-Jazeera, The Guardian
In 2012, Netanyahu declared Iran was a year away from nuclear weapons. Remember the iconic photo of Netanyahu at the UN with the ridiculous cartoon bomb? Weeks later Mossad shared information with the South African government that contradicted the claim, said Iran wasn’t even attempting to produce nuclear arms, and had never tried to enrich any uranium to anywhere near weapons grade.
Of course we knew all that long before Netanyahu made the claim. It seems like Mossad knew it too, but Netanyahu wasn’t going to let facts get in the way of a good speech.
Israel Stole South African Missile Technology
Story: al-Jazeera
In 2010, documents reveal, Israel acquired stolen South African anti-tank missile plans. South African intelligence helped to cover up the theft, and kept prosecutors from releasing information about Israeli involvement when charging the thieves.
South African officials told reporters at the time that Israel had been approached but “was not interested.” The leak shows that not only was Israel interested, it bought the blueprints and Mossad got ahold of them. Mossad agreed to return the plans after they were caught, but only on the condition that Israeli middlemen involved would not be charged.
Abbas Tries to Kill the Goldstone Report
Stories: al-Jazeera, The Guardian
After the 2008-09 Israeli invasion of the Gaza Strip, Judge Richard Goldstone was charged with investigating and reporting on the war crimes therein. You may remember this, as Israeli officials threatened the UN over the report and accused Goldstone, a South African Jew, of being an anti-semite.
South African cables report that even though Abbas did not, and indeed could not, publicly take a stand, he was privately lobbying against the Goldstone Report, fearing Israel would use it as an excuse to kill the peace process, and also fearing that pointing out war crimes committed against Hamas territory would strengthen Hamas’ bargaining position.

South Africa and deep south America — Still a white man's paradise
Think about it, for in a democracy, if the blacks have not the funds to hire the politicians needed to gain liberty, then enslaved by poverty they shall forever be.
And so, the same thing happened in South Africa as did in the deep south after the civil war, the blacks were given freedom but no wealth and a poverty wage that made it impossible to gain wealth. So, the paid actor politicians who were hired to fight for their rights in Congress, who did the hiring? The rich white man of course, which made it impossible for the blacks to ever have the political power needed to fight for their rights and to gain the liberty that comes only after you have your rights.
For to this day, in South Africa and deep South America, the blacks sit helpless and powerless while the white rich ruling class hire most all of the politicians as paid actor slave drivers.
