Israel secretly targeting US war veterans

Nearly
40% of the millions of homeless in the United States are veterans.
When the count of recent
veterans that had committed suicide hit 30,000,
back in 2008, the US
government stopped counting.
This week, American war
veterans in Los Angeles await a court decision that would
return the Veterans
National Home to them. The land had been
stolen from them
by gangsters and politicians, two groups most
Americans now know are one and
the same.
However, they fear the
judge is under pressure from powerful anti-veteran groups
now clearly identified
as Israeli-based.
“Steamrolling” veterans

American war veterans have been targeted. They have known it for years, but it
wasn’t until they were named “terrorists” by
Department of Homeland Security
Secretary Janet Napolitano and “anti-Semites”
by Abe Foxman’s Anti-Defamation
League
that they knew who was out to get them.
A powerful organization,
organized crime figures, AIPAC, the ADL and JDL, aided
by Senator’s Feinstein
and Boxer and Representatives Waxman and Pelosi, have
declared war on
America’s homeless veterans.
Aiding them are phony
non-profit organizations, the Veteran’s Park Conservancy and
Brentwood Homeowners
Association, multi-millionaires, Israeli citizens, stealing from
homeless veterans,
organizing smear campaigns, hiring thugs, police and military,
to threaten and
intimidate veterans, many well into their 80’s.
But why?
Veterans
control billions in land, are served by one
of the world’s largest hospital
systems and supposedly
receive endless billions in aid programs which
have not just
been increasingly
privatized but increasingly targeted by organized crime.
Police state or
“gangster state?”
Veterans are an easy target and laws that allowed Congress to be taken over by
Veterans are an easy target and laws that allowed Congress to be taken over by
“banksters,” drug
cartels and human traffickers have empowered criminal elements
among America’s “friends
of Israel” to prey on damaged and disenfranchised war
heroes.
Service organizations
tasked with protecting veterans have made it even easier as
they had begun the
process long before, taking everything in sight and waving the
flag to cover their
crimes.
Now the real
professionals have taken over.
Background
Back during the 19th century, nearly 400 acres of worthless land was donated
Back during the 19th century, nearly 400 acres of worthless land was donated
as a
home for war veterans. That
land is now worth four billion dollars. The veterans
group, “the Old Guard”
that has been demonstrating for nearly 300 consecutive weeks,
never knew who their
real enemies were.
Police came to arrest them, war heroes with an average age
of over 70. The courts
ruled that the police
had violated the law.
Aging veterans had their
phones tapped, their computers hacked and were even
followed by members of
special police units working for the Department of Veterans
Affairs, some dressed as
“ground keepers, photographed leaning on shovels while“
not so casually” talking
into microphones hidden in their sleeves and tapping their
earpieces.
It
would have been funny if it weren’t also so criminal. Military police came, filmed
assaulting the aging wheelchair-bound vets, but police and the courts would do
nothing.
How do you tell the
Israel lobby from the mafia? You can’t!
Then it happened, the “Old Guard” were called “anti-Semites” by the ADL.

Then it happened, the “Old Guard” were called “anti-Semites” by the ADL.
The ADL called them “Nazi extremists.” A local Jewish paper claimed the group was
“terrorist,” citing
that:
“Veteran protesters are
likely to bring machine guns and start killing people in the
streets.”
There is a problem with
this. Some of the vets are Jewish. Their supporters are Jewish.
Their lawyers with the
ACLU (American Civil Liberties Union) are all Jewish.
What makes them
“anti-Semites” is that they are threatening a racket that is spreading
across America, billions
of dollars of land, some designated for veterans, some for
parks, some for
hospitals or wildlife, all being given to billionaire developers.
Every one of these
developers are Israeli citizens.
All
have long-time ties to the Meyer Lansky “Murder Incorporated” gang that
was the
real “Mafia.” They are alive and well today,
many safely settled in Israel, others still in
America. This same organization, the one at war
with America’s veterans, the “Old Guard”
and “Veterans Today,” put Bush (43) in
office, made billions when the World Trade
Center was demolished on 9/11, made trillions during
the bailouts and market crash and, of course, started the Iraq and Afghan
wars and are manipulating the slaughter in Syria
and Egypt.

Nearly 40% of the millions of homeless in the United States are veterans. When
the count of recent
veterans that had committed suicide hit 30,000, back in 2008, the US government
stopped counting.
Over 10,000 veterans of
Operation Desert Storm have died of a mysterious disease
called “[Persian] Gulf
War Syndrome,” well documented but denied.
Few Americans know or
care that, by 1985, 50,000 Vietnam veterans had died of
Agent Orange poisoning. By 2005, over 1 million Vietnam veterans had died of
suicide or “unknown
causes,” making the toll from
that war greater than the combined
losses of all other wars
combined, including two World Wars, the Civil War and even Korea.

However, American veterans don’t even have refugee camps to go to, no organization

when and if they speak up, they are quickly “disappeared,”

“Homeland Security
Secretary Janet Napolitano said Wednesday that she was briefed

the report, which lists
returning veterans among terrorist risks to the US.

said in her statement.

‘Let me be very clear: We monitor the risks of violent extremism taking root here in
the United States. We
don’t have the luxury of focusing our efforts on one group; we

motivates its violence,’ Ms. Napolitano said.

and liberties of the American people, including subjecting our
activities to rigorous
oversight from numerous internal and external sources.’”
Ground zero Los Angeles

Each week for nearly six years veterans from three wars have stood against the powerful
“West Side Political
Machine” of Henry Waxman and the millionaire Israeli-Americans of the Brentwood
Homeowners Association.
America’s
“Veterans Home” was seized, given to the rich who built a private school, a
place for their pets to befoul and a million
dollar rose garden, all on land held sacred for
America’s homeless heroes.
A multi-million dollar
fence and militarized police force guarantee that the 20,000 local
homeless veterans will
never step foot on the home they alone own.
The rich hold parties
there, movie premiers, fund raisers for gay and lesbian charities, all
the while the veterans
who own the land, and have proven it in court, sleep on the sidewalks,
in the bushes,
sometimes, too often, to be hauled away “dead of unknown causes.”
The names
Think Waxman, Foxman, Netanyahu, Pelosi, Boxer, Beiter, Broad, Millman, Mizel,
Think Waxman, Foxman, Netanyahu, Pelosi, Boxer, Beiter, Broad, Millman, Mizel,
Frank and especially John McCain.
Few outside the US know
how American veterans suffer. After Vietnam, Senator John
McCain, according to
Col’s Ted Guy, Earl Hopper and Jim Hanke worked tirelessly
to
make sure none of the hundreds of POWs held after the end of the war were
repatriated.
Hanke, former POW
recovery officer in Thailand, tells of reports of POW sightings being
suppressed, of the American people being lied to under the veil of “operational
secrecy.”
Today, nearly a million
veterans await claims processing, said to be as long as 18 months.
In truth, “processing”
means blanket denials with real claims taking up to 25 years or
more to process.
Many Vietnam veterans
are only now getting claims processed for illnesses and
injuries dating from the
1960s and 70s.
Veterans
call it: “Deny, deny, deny until they die.”
This is the rule, not
the exception.
Easy targets
Veterans didn’t know. They never guessed that they could be targeted like Syria or Iran.
Veterans didn’t know. They never guessed that they could be targeted like Syria or Iran.
The “war” in the Middle East wasn’t supposed to
come to America, not here
and
certainly not be fought against veterans, so many of whom fought illegal and
hopeless wars on behalf of Israel.
They know now.
