The Unquiet AmericanU.S.-Iraq policy and the murder of a whistle-blowing contractor.
By Aram Roston ( investigative producer with NBC News )
"At 43 years old, Stoffel, an American businessman and arms dealer,sported a goatee that gave his grin a mischievous appearance. He probably would have been grinning that day. After all, he believed he had just rescued the biggest business deal of his tumultuous career,one that he thought would not only make him millions but would also

"I am Cyrus"
"Harry Truman recognized Israel in 1948--to the despair of the StateDepartment and almost all his top advisers. The establishment types,who believed America's role was not to boost the aspirations of thefledgling Jewish state, but to cozy up to the oil-rich Arab states,thought that Truman had committed a horrible blunder. Truman disagreed.A lifetime of historical reading instilled in him the conviction that the Jews deserved a homeland.

"And, it creates anti-Semitism. And we know that for close to 100 years already, Zionism is the root cause for the pain, suffering and bloodshed of the Jewish people, let alone who is talking about the Palestinian people and what has been going on in Palestine. And they, (the Zionists), are the greatest factory of anti-Semitism worldwide. So, that is what we are here for, to let the world know that Judaism and Zionism is not one and the same. They are diametrically opposite. And, we should not be mistaken one for the other. And, we shouldn't be responsible for the actions of what the Zionists do," Rabbi Weiss emphasized.
