Reading today’s headlines of the most recent conflagration in the Middle East led me to revisit Justin Raimondo’s past writings on the matter. “….Since neither sides wants peace, there will be none. Given these intractable circumstances, we must withdraw from the role of ‘broker,’ which the American conceit of exercising ‘world leadership’ at every opportunity has made mandatory. We have no interest in the creation of yet another radical Arab state which is bound to turn against us, no matter what we do, or how we vote in the UN. We must also withdraw as Israel’s shield and chief financier: that, indeed, is … Continue reading →

a couple months back
I know I touched on this before here, via mondoweiss
but today it went noticed again
and was commented on over at al jazeera
we noticed
and recalled
justin raimondo reported same behaviors over 20 years ago
from which I will briefly quote
The leering ugliness of the Israelis’ Easter blitzkrieg is darkly illustrated by the news that, having marched into Ramallah, the IDF prepared a special Easter television broadcast for this historically Christian city: “Porn movies and programs in Hebrew are being broadcast by Israeli troops who have taken over three Palestinian television stations of Ramallah, irate residents of the besieged West Bank town have told AFP . The soldiers started broadcasting the porn clips - considered extremely offensive by most Muslims - intermittently this afternoon from the Al-Watan, Ammwaj, and Al-Sharaq channels, the residents said. ‘The pornographic movies started on Al-Watan television at around 3:30 pm,’ one 34-year-old Palestinian mother named Reema told AFP. ‘I have six children at home, they have nowhere to go with what is going on here and can’t even watch TV,’ she said angrily. ‘It’s not healthy really. I think the Israelis want to mess with our young men’s heads,’ she said.” CHEAP THRILLS As the Middle East descends into the political equivalent of a sado-masochistic orgy, the porn trope forms the perfect note trumpeting Israel’s triumph. The IDF offensive, the invasion of Arafat’s compound, the vaunted flexing of Israel’s military muscle - all have the earmarks of some perverted ritual of humiliation and violation. As the IDF’s idea of Easter programming attests, the Israeli offensive projects the essential character of the degraded Israeli “democracy” - a lust for domination. After all, why does a robber, having already looted the till and gone halfway out the door, turn and shoot his victim? Because he can. For one moment, he is a god, his power to inflict death, at will, is orgasmic proof of his omnipotence. However, for a certain type of killer there is no such thing as a clean kill: he must torture his victim until the last moment, extracting every ounce of perverted pleasure out of the experience. This sadistic impulse is what drives the IDF and the Sharon government forward - and gives their American amen corner a really cheap thrill.
same behaviors, same culture and same society
this isn't limited to just being a christian thing
as I do not belong to the abrahamics myself
and raimondo was rather atheist
but my points being here
pornography is a weapon
pornography is a weapon
pornography is a weapon
pornography is a weapon
pornography is a weapon
of war
of their wars
of their wars
and
they do not change
they do not change
they do not change
they do not change
they do not change
they do not change
their lust for domination
it is all consuming
and Full Spectrum Dominance is official US policy
long has been and
we can all look and see who leads this, so much of it
it isn't a tiny minority being shut out
as this would be absurdum
but fully integrated
if not with humanity
as this would be absurdum
against whom they wage
and as I've said before
this is war
this is war
where definitions of peace
are merely yet another falsity
to mess with your bodies and heads

On the Importance of Gold, Cake, and Jim Sinclair
It is a fair thing to say that without certain people there would be no Gold Goats ‘n Guns. When the editor of Antiwar.com Justin Raimondo, passed on I tried to explain how important he was to me. I kept that article pinned on my Twitter feed for more than 3 years. Alongside Raimondo’s fierce wit and opprobrium for all things war, there was “Mr. Gold,” Jim Sinclair. Sinclair spoke clearly…

Israel: “Nosotros entrenamos y armamos a Hamás”
Teniendo esto en cuenta, es importante señalar que Israel ya ha admitido haber creado su archienemigo, Hamás, con el propósito de dividir a la OLP (Organización de Liberación Palestina) y Fatah, el principal grupo del movimiento de libertad y resistencia palestino.
Activistpost.com informa: Robert Dreyfuss, un periodista veterano de The Nation, incluso escribió que:
En las décadas previas al 11 de septiembre, los activistas y organizaciones incondicionales entre los fundamentalistas musulmanes de extrema derecha a menudo eran vistos como aliados por dos razones: porque se los consideraba feroces anticomunistas y porque los nacionalistas seculares opuestos, como Gamal Abdel de Egipto, Nasser, Mohammed Mossadegh de Irán.
En Siria, Estados Unidos, Israel y Jordania apoyaron a los Hermanos Musulmanes en una guerra civil contra Siria. Y… Israel respaldó discretamente a Ahmed Yassin y a los Hermanos Musulmanes en Cisjordania y Gaza, lo que condujo al establecimiento de Hamás.
Como escribió Justin Raimondo de AntiWar.com en su artículo de 2006 “Hamas, hijo de Israel”
En medio de todos los aullidos de dolor y crujir de dientes por el triunfo de Hamás en las elecciones palestinas, un hecho sigue siendo relativamente oscuro, aunque muy relevante: Israel hizo mucho para lanzar a Hamás como una fuerza eficaz en los territorios ocupados. Si alguna vez hubo un caso claro de “retroceso”, entonces es éste. Como señaló Richard Sale en un artículo para UPI:
Israel y Hamás pueden estar actualmente enfrascados en un combate mortal, pero, según varios funcionarios y ex funcionarios de inteligencia estadounidenses, a partir de finales de los años 1970, Tel Aviv dio ayuda financiera directa e indirecta a Hamás durante un período de años. Israel "ayudó directamente a Hamás; los israelíes querían utilizarlo como contrapeso a la OLP (Organización de Liberación Palestina)", dijo Tony Cordesman, analista de Oriente Medio para el Centro de Estudios Estratégicos [e Internacionales]. intento directo de dividir y diluir el apoyo a una OLP fuerte y secular mediante el uso de una alternativa religiosa competidora", dijo un ex alto funcionario de la CIA.
El analista de Oriente Medio Ray Hanania coincide:
Además de esperar alejar a las masas palestinas de Arafat y la OLP, los dirigentes del Likud creían que podían lograr una alianza viable con las fuerzas islámicas anti-Arafat que también extendería el control de Israel sobre los territorios ocupados.
En un esfuerzo consciente por socavar la Organización para la Liberación de Palestina y el liderazgo de Yasser Arafat, en 1978 el gobierno del entonces primer ministro Menachem Begin aprobó la solicitud del jeque Ahmad Yassin para iniciar una organización “humanitaria” conocida como Asociación Islámica o Mujama. . Las raíces de este grupo islamista estaban en la fundamentalista Hermandad Musulmana, y esta fue la semilla de la que finalmente surgió Hamás, pero no antes de que fuera ampliamente fertilizada y alimentada con financiación y apoyo político israelí.
Es importante señalar aquí que los Hermanos Musulmanes, además de esta estrecha conexión con el predecesor de Hamás y, por tanto, con el Mossad y otras formas de inteligencia israelí, también mantienen vínculos estrechos e históricos con la inteligencia occidental, sobre todo con las versiones británica y estadounidense. .
Teniendo esto en cuenta, el artículo de Raimondo continúa afirmando que:
Begin y su sucesor, Yitzhak Shamir, lanzaron un esfuerzo para socavar a la OLP, creando las llamadas Ligas de Aldeas, compuestas por consejos locales de palestinos cuidadosamente seleccionados que estaban dispuestos a colaborar con Israel y, a cambio, fueron puestos en la nómina israelí. Sheik Yassin y sus seguidores pronto se convirtieron en una fuerza dentro de las Ligas de Aldeas. Esta alianza táctica entre Yassin y los israelíes se basó en una antipatía compartida hacia la OLP militantemente secular e izquierdista: los israelíes permitieron que el grupo de Yassin publicara un periódico y establecieron una extensa red de organizaciones caritativas, que recaudaban fondos no sólo de los israelíes sino también de los estados árabes opuestos a Arafat.
Ami Isseroff, escribiendo en Mideast Web, muestra cómo los israelíes promovieron deliberadamente a los islamistas del futuro Hamas ayudándolos a convertir la Universidad Islámica de Gaza en una base desde la cual el grupo reclutó a activistas –y a los terroristas suicidas del mañana. Como el único centro de educación superior en la franja de Gaza, y la única institución de este tipo abierta a los palestinos desde que Anwar Sadat les cerró las universidades egipcias, IUG contenía en sus terrenos las semillas del futuro Estado palestino. Sin embargo, cuando surgió un conflicto por cuestiones religiosas, las autoridades israelíes se pusieron del lado de los islamistas contra los secularistas de la corriente principal de Fatah y la OLP. Como relata Isseroff, los islamistas
Alentó a las autoridades israelíes a destituir a sus oponentes en el comité en febrero de 1981, lo que resultó en la posterior islamización de la política y el personal del IUG (incluida la obligación de las mujeres de usar hijab y thobe y entradas separadas para hombres y mujeres), y lo hizo cumplir mediante violencia y ostracismo de los disidentes. La complicidad tácita de las autoridades universitarias e israelíes permitió a Mujama mantener un alijo de armas para usar contra los secularistas. A mediados de la década de 1980, era la universidad más grande de los territorios ocupados, con 4.500 estudiantes, y Mujama ganó cómodamente las elecciones estudiantiles.
Una vez más, el motivo fue contrarrestar la influencia de Arafat y dividir a los palestinos. A corto plazo, esto puede haber funcionado hasta cierto punto; Sin embargo, a largo plazo resultó contraproducente, como lo demuestran los resultados de las recientes elecciones palestinas.
La incesante ofensiva de Israel contra sus supuestos enemigos –primero Fatah, ahora Hamás y la Jihad Islámica– ha generado una reacción violenta y solidificado el apoyo a las facciones extremistas fundamentalistas de la comunidad palestina.
Sin embargo, lo que Raimondo llama “contragolpe” se ha revelado más bien como un guión inteligentemente escrito y diseñado para desarrollarse años más tarde. Aun así, The Wall Street Journal coincidió con el análisis de Raimondo en un artículo publicado en 2009. En este artículo, titulado “Cómo Israel ayudó a generar Hamás”, escribió Andrew Higgins:
“Para mi gran pesar, Hamas es creación de Israel”, dice Cohen, un judío nacido en Túnez que trabajó en Gaza durante más de dos décadas. Responsable de los asuntos religiosos en la región hasta 1994, Cohen observó cómo tomaba forma el movimiento islamista, desplazaba a sus rivales seculares palestinos y luego se transformaba en lo que hoy es Hamás, un grupo militante que ha jurado destruir a Israel.
En lugar de intentar frenar a los islamistas de Gaza desde el principio, dice Cohen, Israel los toleró durante años y, en algunos casos, los alentó como contrapeso a los nacionalistas seculares de la Organización para la Liberación de Palestina y su facción dominante, Fatah de Yasser Arafat. Israel cooperó con un clérigo lisiado y medio ciego llamado Sheikh Ahmed Yassin, incluso cuando estaba sentando las bases de lo que se convertiría en Hamás. Sheikh Yassin sigue inspirando a los militantes de hoy; Durante la reciente guerra en Gaza, los combatientes de Hamas enfrentaron a las tropas israelíes con “Yassins”, primitivas granadas propulsadas por cohetes llamadas así en honor del clérigo.
Cuando Israel se encontró por primera vez con islamistas en Gaza en las décadas de 1970 y 1980, parecían centrados en estudiar el Corán, no en la confrontación con Israel. El gobierno israelí reconoció oficialmente a un precursor de Hamas llamado Mujama Al-Islamiya y registró al grupo como una organización benéfica. Permitió a los miembros de Mujama establecer una universidad islámica y construir mezquitas, clubes y escuelas. Fundamentalmente, Israel a menudo se mantuvo al margen cuando los islamistas y sus rivales palestinos seculares de izquierda lucharon, a veces violentamente, por la influencia tanto en Gaza como en Cisjordania.
Cuando a principios de la década de 1990 quedó claro que los islamistas de Gaza habían pasado de ser un grupo religioso a convertirse en una fuerza de combate dirigida contra Israel (particularmente después de que recurrieron a los atentados suicidas con bombas en 1994), Israel tomó medidas enérgicas con fuerza feroz. Pero cada ataque militar sólo aumentó el atractivo de Hamás para los palestinos comunes y corrientes. El grupo finalmente derrotó a sus rivales seculares, en particular a Fatah, en una elección de 2006 apoyada por el principal aliado de Israel, Estados Unidos.
En Gaza, Israel persiguió a miembros de Fatah y otras facciones seculares de la OLP, pero levantó las duras restricciones impuestas a los activistas islámicos por los anteriores gobernantes egipcios del territorio.
Los Hermanos Musulmanes, liderados en Gaza por el jeque Yassin, tenían libertad para difundir su mensaje abiertamente. Además de lanzar varios proyectos de caridad, Sheikh Yassin recaudó dinero para reimprimir los escritos de Sayyid Qutb, un miembro egipcio de la Hermandad que, antes de su ejecución por el presidente Nasser, defendía la yihad global. Ahora se le considera uno de los ideólogos fundadores del Islam político militante.
Cohen, que trabajaba en ese momento para el departamento de asuntos religiosos del gobierno israelí en Gaza, dice que comenzó a escuchar informes inquietantes a mediados de la década de 1970 sobre Sheikh Yassin por parte de clérigos islámicos tradicionales. Dice que le advirtieron que el jeque no tenía formación islámica formal y que, en última instancia, estaba más interesado en la política que en la fe. “Dijeron: 'Manténganse alejados de Yassin'. Es un gran peligro'”, recuerda Cohen.
En cambio, la administración militar de Israel en Gaza miró con buenos ojos al clérigo parapléjico, quien estableció una amplia red de escuelas, clínicas, una biblioteca y jardines de infancia. Sheikh Yassin formó el grupo islamista Mujama al-Islamiya, que fue reconocido oficialmente por Israel como una organización benéfica y luego, en 1979, como una asociación. Israel también respaldó el establecimiento de la Universidad Islámica de Gaza, que ahora considera un foco de militancia.
El general Yitzhak Segev, que asumió el cargo de gobernador de Gaza a finales de 1979, dice que no se hacía ilusiones sobre las intenciones a largo plazo de Sheikh Yassin ni sobre los peligros del Islam político. Como ex agregado militar de Israel en Irán, había visto cómo el fervor islámico derrocaba al Sha. Sin embargo, en Gaza, dice Segev, “nuestro principal enemigo era Fatah” y el clérigo “todavía era 100% pacífico” con Israel. Ex funcionarios dicen que Israel también temía en ese momento ser visto como un enemigo del Islam.
Segev dice que tenía contacto regular con Sheikh Yassin, en parte para vigilarlo. Visitó su mezquita y se reunió con el clérigo una docena de veces. En aquella época era ilegal que los israelíes se reunieran con alguien de la OLP. Posteriormente, el Sr. Segev hizo arreglos para que el clérigo fuera llevado a Israel para recibir tratamiento hospitalario. "No tuvimos ningún problema con él", afirma.
De hecho, el clérigo e Israel tenían un enemigo compartido: los activistas palestinos seculares. Después de un intento fallido en Gaza de expulsar a los secularistas del liderazgo de la Media Luna Roja Palestina, la versión musulmana de la Cruz Roja, Mujama organizó una manifestación violenta y asaltó el edificio de la Media Luna Roja. Los islamistas también atacaron tiendas que vendían licores y cines. El ejército israelí en su mayor parte se mantuvo al margen.
Un líder de la facción islamista de Birzeit en ese momento era Mahmoud Musleh, ahora miembro pro-Hamás de una legislatura palestina elegida en 2006. Recuerda cómo, por lo general, las agresivas fuerzas de seguridad israelíes se mantenían al margen y dejaban que se desarrollara la conflagración. Niega cualquier colusión entre su propio bando y los israelíes, pero dice que "esperaban que nos convirtiéramos en una alternativa a la OLP".
Un año después, en 1984, el ejército israelí recibió un aviso de partidarios de Fatah de que los islamistas de Gaza de Sheikh Yassin estaban recogiendo armas, según funcionarios israelíes en Gaza en ese momento. Las tropas israelíes asaltaron una mezquita y encontraron un alijo de armas. El jeque Yassin fue encarcelado. Dijo a los interrogadores israelíes que las armas eran para ser utilizadas contra palestinos rivales, no contra Israel, según Hacham, el experto en asuntos militares que dice haber hablado frecuentemente con islamistas encarcelados. El clérigo fue liberado después de un año y continuó expandiendo el alcance de Mujama en toda Gaza.
Teniendo en cuenta el hecho de que Israel ha brindado apoyo militar y médico a los terroristas extremistas islámicos más sanguinarios y brutales del mundo y el hecho de que ha creado Hamás desde el principio, la respuesta a la pregunta de "¿Por qué no ¿Cómo que Nusra, Al Qaeda e ISIS atacan a Israel? es bastante simple – porque
Teniendo todo esto en cuenta, cualquier afirmación de victimismo por parte de Israel debe descartarse inmediatamente. De hecho, esta descripción de autodefensa y peligro debería descartarse especialmente cuando se considera la historia del propio Estado. Sin embargo, esto no justifica el ataque contra ciudadanos israelíes inocentes. Es importante distinguir entre civiles israelíes natos y sus homólogos de colonos y el gobierno israelí.
Israel se ha creado sus propios enemigos en virtud de su naturaleza colonial, su política exterior e interior, e incluso mediante su organización y financiación directa. Por lo tanto, es totalmente exacto decir que los enemigos de Israel son literalmente aquellos que él mismo creó.
Al final, la información presentada en este artículo es simplemente una ventana más al ámbito del aparato de inteligencia angloeuropeo-estadounidense-israelí y a las profundidades a las que llega la madriguera del conejo en términos de terrorismo internacional. El guión que se está representando en todo Oriente Medio y el resto del mundo está claramente dirigido por una fuerza invisible para la gran mayoría de la población mundial.
Aún así, los jugadores representan sus roles de acuerdo con la narrativa predeterminada que se les proporciona, a pesar de que no tienen idea de que en realidad están representando la voluntad de un “otro” sombrío que no tiene en mente sus mejores intereses.
En este juego, prácticamente todos los que representan sus papeles en el terreno son meros jugadores que desconocen sus roles.
¿Cuál es el final del juego?
Por supuesto, la “historia oficial” israelí de los ataques puede muy bien ser cierta y no podemos descartar la posibilidad de un levantamiento orgánico contra el gobierno israelí que ha tratado tan horriblemente al pueblo palestino a lo largo de su historia y que esencialmente se ha involucrado en un plan de lenta erradicación de los palestinos.
Pero, dada la naturaleza cuestionable de la historia oficial israelí y las lealtades cuestionables de Hamás, ¿cuál sería el resultado final de permitir un ataque de Hamás en suelo israelí? Para el gobierno israelí, hay varias opciones:
1.) Declarar la ley marcial sobre la población israelí que ha estado dividida e inquieta por la manipulación económica y cultural, así como por otras cuestiones políticas dentro de Israel. Esta guerra ha silenciado efectivamente la disidencia política y los desacuerdos internos.
2.) Crear un “11 de septiembre israelí” que generaría apoyo tanto dentro como fuera de Israel para la “solución final” al “problema” palestino. En otras palabras, una incursión masiva en la Franja de Gaza y posiblemente en otros territorios.
3.) Una excusa para lanzar un ataque contra Hezbollah antes de que la milicia respaldada por Irán gane tanta fuerza que Israel sea incapaz de defenderse con éxito, una posibilidad muy real dada la creciente fuerza y habilidad de la milicia actualmente.
4.) Lanzar una guerra contra Irán que lógicamente atraerá a Estados Unidos para que se lleve la peor parte de los combates, rompiendo así a su mayor enemigo funcional en la región.
Naturalmente, sería importante señalar que es poco probable que el gobierno israelí tome tales medidas sin consultar primero a Estados Unidos y sin tener la seguridad de que el ejército estadounidense acudirá rápidamente a su rescate.
¿Es la Tercera Guerra Mundial Abierta el resultado natural?
Las batallas militares entre Hamás y el gobierno israelí amenazan con atraer más potencias además de las dos que luchan directamente, hasta el punto de provocar conflictos militares multinacionales directamente en la región y muy fuera de su alcance. Hezbollah e Israel ya han intercambiado disparos de cohetes en la frontera. Hezbollah cuenta con el respaldo de Irán, lo que, como era de esperar, es una conexión que Israel y sus acólitos aprovecharán para justificar el conflicto militar con Irán y afirmar que Irán está, en última instancia, detrás del conflicto actual.
Curiosamente, el portavoz de Hamás ya le dijo a la BBC que Irán dio su apoyo a la organización para la operación que acaba de lanzarse. Es inusual que los combatientes ofrezcan abiertamente los nombres de sus patrocinadores financieros, pero, convenientemente para aquellos que quieren demonizar a Irán y culparlo por la nueva guerra, Hamás ha salido adelante con gran éxito.
Actualmente se desconoce la versión iraní de la historia. Quizás sí apoyó la operación y quizás no. Ambas posibilidades son realistas, pero ninguna de ellas importará en Occidente, donde los medios occidentales ya han llegado a la conclusión lógica: Irán es responsable de los ataques en Israel.
La actual guerra israelí ya está traspasando fronteras pero, si no se contiene de inmediato, correrá el riesgo de involucrar al Líbano, Hezbollah, Irán, Siria, Egipto, los Estados Unidos, la OTAN y Rusia, así como a las bandas y hordas de fundamentalistas islámicos. terroristas que Occidente y el CCG han patrocinado en todo el Medio Oriente.
Las potencias occidentales deben mantenerse al margen de la guerra entre Israel y Hamás. Tanto Estados Unidos como Rusia (aunque probablemente sólo se involucrarán como resultado de la participación estadounidense) deben mostrar la máxima moderación en este sentido. El mundo no puede permitirse el lujo de permitir que esta guerra se convierta en el cementerio de la humanidad.

Hearing these assessments of Murray Rothbard and paleolibertarianism as a predecessor of modern right-populism makes some things I was noticing in the late '90s daily libertarian links roundup at free-market.net but didn't have referents for finally make sense, particularly Lew Rockwell and Justin Raimondo (noted as a disciple) at Antiwar.org. The distinct thing about the paleos it seemed to me was their monetarism, and with that site they were leading with a position – non-interventionist right-pacifism – that they did honestly hold, but seemed more importantly an open niche they could claim. Associating them with '90s white-Enough!ness… makes sense, though.
Makes it a little funny that was completely unrelated to how I came across Steve Sailer, which was actually his comments on Matt Yglesias' American Prospect blog

The Presidential Election System 1) The two major Republican and Democrat parties choose their presidential candidate through primary elections held in 50 states. They are organised in various ways from state to state. In some states, candidates are selected through secret ballots, in other states through open meetings, called caucuses. In some states, only registered members of the party that organises the caucus may participate in the caucus, in others, non-members of the party or members of the opponent party may also participate and vote.

Of course it was just a coincidence that the first organized attack on a North Korean facility by internal rebels (supposedly) took place days before the scheduled North Korean-US summit in Hanoi. Ten masked men stole computers, interrogated North Korean officials, and drove off in a number of luxury cars. Credit was taken by a group that calls itself Chollima.
Despite constantly being told by the Western media that this is a totally unknown group, to anyone who knows the least bit about Korean history, this is laughable. In the mid-1950s, China’s “Great Leap Forward” was in progress, and Chollima was the Korean equivalent. It means “speed” of an unusual sort, and the symbolism was based on a mythological winged horse that could supposedly gallop at one thousand li (over a mile) a minute.
Since the North had limited physical resources, the idea was to overcome this by sheer ideological zeal. In short, Chollima was never some secret movement in opposition to the regime, but was instead a state-sponsored phenomenon from start to finish. “Chollima” is what they call their state soccer team.
So who are they, really, and what do they hope to accomplish?

I continue to argue that these nine contractors are the heart of America’s Open Borders movement and thus there can never be long-lasting reform of US immigration policy when these nine un-elected phony non-profits are paid by the taxpayers to work as community organizers pushing an open borders agenda.

As Jacobin’s own Branko Marcetic observed two years ago, Schiff’s bellicosity is extensively funded by arms manufacturers and military contractors. A Ukrainian arms dealer named Igor Pasternak held a $2,500 per head fundraiser for Schiff in 2013, as the late Justin Raimondo reported in a terrific analysis on Antiwar.com in 2017, at a time when Ukraine was desperately trying to counter the Obama administration’s disinterest in funding its war with Russia. Despite that disinterest, the State Department approved some very profitable dealings for Pasternak in Ukraine after that fundraiser.
And that’s only one example. In the current cycle, donations from the war industry have continued to flood his coffers. Many come from employees of firms with extensive Department of Defense contracts, including Radiance Technologies and Raytheon. PACs representing the defense industry also make a robust showing among Schiff’s contributors, according to data on Open Secrets.org; companies funneling money to Schiff — sorry, contributing to those PACs — include Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon, Radiance, and others, including L3Harris Technologies (which got in big trouble with the State Department in September and had to pay $13 million in penalties for illegal arms dealing).
Guess what these companies want? War with Ukraine. Why wouldn’t they? Last October, the United States approved a $39 million sale of anti-tank missiles to Ukraine, a joint contract between Raytheon and Lockheed Martin. The previous year, Ukraine bought $37 million worth of missiles from the same two companies. As a missile-maker, Zacks Equity Research has noted, Northrop Grumman also benefits richly from conflict in Ukraine, as missiles are heavily used in cross-border wars.
Despite his enthusiastic support for state violence and cozy ties to the makers of deadly weaponry, Schiff, an Alexander Hamilton–quoting windbag, doesn’t have much crossover appeal to the sort of people who put “These Colors Don’t Run” stickers on their trucks. His impeachment crusade only seems to reinforce Trump’s support among the faithful; at this writing, 93 percent of Republicans oppose the president’s removal from office.
