The Right Gone Wrong

A lack of Mossad, even if “rogue” Mossad, involvement in this atrocity is about as likely as a lack of ISI, even if “rogue” ISI, involvement in the harbouring of Osama bin Laden. This gathering had just, as predicted, held a pro-Palestinian rally, and was taking place in support of a government about to recognise Palestine and withdraw from Libya.

The attacker’s website called for all Jews in the world to move to “a liberated and Muslim-free Zion”. With views like that, he could be a member of the present Israeli Cabinet. What next? No link between 7/7 and Iraq? No link between 9/11 and the presence of American troops in Saudi Arabia? This is far more an Israeli attack than 9/11 was an Afghan attack (9/11 was in fact a Saudi attack).

It is no wonder that the neoconservative wars have been and are most enthusiastically promoted by media moguls who, far from being conservative figures, are somehow all and yet none of Australian, American and British, or somehow all and yet none of Canadian, American and British. They were and are also keenest on Margaret Thatcher.

Those media have been the prime movers in turning first New Labour and then also its imitators who have taken over the Conservative Party into what most of Britain's supposedly conservative newspapers have long been, more loyal to the United States and to the State of Israel than to the United Kingdom, a position as unconservative and as far removed from Labourism as it is possible to imagine, and without parallel in any comparable country, if in any country at all.
