TRIGGERS READY

WAR CLOUDS ON HORIZON

MID-EAST REALITIES _ - www.MiddleEast.Org - Washington - 6/04:
    Despite the lull, there are many ominous signs of impending major
attacks against the occupied Palestinians about to take place; and there
is a real possibility of regional war. The Israelis have their fingers on
the triggers and have forced Arafat to either defy his own people by
capitulating to their ultimatums or face Israel's wrath, including his own
possible demise.
    International Airlines, including two of the biggest, Air France and
Delta, have canceled flights to Israel. Former Chairman of the Joint
Chiefs, now Secretary of State Colin Powell, has cancelled foreign travel
plans to remain at his command post now on the 7th floor at Foggy Bottom.
Foreign diplomats and U.N. officials are fleeing Palestinian areas. And
the Israelis are planting stories that all the planes overhead and
military convoys on the ground are just a "scheduled exercise" going to
last "a few days".
    For purposes of world public opinion the Israelis are orchestrating a
campaign about their "restraint" and "giving Arafat a last chance" and how
"reasonable" they are being under such provocations. Of course the actual
realities are pretty much just the reverse. It is the Palestinians who
have been repeatedly and severely provoked; not to mention it is they who
are being constantly tortured, mercilessly repressed, and economically
strangled -The now apartheid-like occupation has never been more savage
nor more ruthlessly bold.
    Whatever the actual realities historically, and whatever the political
theatrics of the moment, furious Israeli war preparations are actually
underway, at both the military and the propaganda levels. Indeed, after a
period of diplomatic to and from the Israelis may well strike first maybe
even beyond the Palestinians areas as they did in 1967 -- claiming this or
that provocation. Certainly they have put everybody in the region on
warning -- if you raise any arms against us we will destroy you.
    It is not too far-fetched to even suggest that should they get the
excuse and be able to maneuver Washington behind-the-scenes, the Israelis
could in fact strike both near and far -- they have been wanting, and at
times threatening, to take out weapons of mass destruction as far away as
Iraq and Iran, even Pakistan if they could possibly get their Indian ally
to seize the moment. And if the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan should in the
end rise from the smoke and ashes to find itself transformed into a
Palestinian State, that would in fact be the fulfillment of Ariel Sharon's
long ambition to force the Palestinians out and force them to find
political expression elsewhere.
