Brezinski Calls for Obama to Shoot Down Israeli Jets; "A Liberty in Reverse"

In a little noticed interview with the Daily Beast (presumably little noticed because serious people don't read the Daily Beast), Zbigniew Brzezinski suggests that Barack Obama do more than just refuse to support an Israeli strike on Iran's nuclear sites -- the American president must give the order to shoot down Israeli aircraft as they cross Iraqi airspace:

DB: How aggressive can Obama be in insisting to the Israelis that a military strike might be in America’s worst interest?

Brzezinski: We are not exactly impotent little babies. They have to fly over our airspace in Iraq. Are we just going to sit there and watch?

DB: What if they fly over anyway?

Brzezinski: Well, we have to be serious about denying them that right. That means a denial where you aren’t just saying it. If they fly over, you go up and confront them. They have the choice of turning back or not. No one wishes for this but it could be a Liberty in reverse.

Contrary to Brezinski's half-hearted disclaimer that no one wishes for such an outcome, there are plenty on the left who would delight in a pitched battle between the United States and Israel. Democrats in Congress routinely support resolutions affirming Israel's right to take whatever steps it deems necessary to assure its own national defense. And Obama has at least paid lip service to the concept. But hostility to Israel among the rank and file is very real on the left -- and among "realists."

So conjure the image -- the Obama administration sending U.S. aircraft up to protect Iran's airspace and it's nuclear installations from an attack by a democracy that is one of America's closest allies. Unfortunately, this may not be so hard to imagine in Israel, where the number of people who believe Obama is pro-Israel is at just 4 percent -- and falling. And given Obama's (literally) submissive posture to the Saudis, his indulgence of the Iranians, and his simultaneously hard-line approach to Israel, it seems even some of Obama's supporters can savor the possibility of a "reverse Liberty."

Palestine - Gaza, Goldstone And Gallstones
It should be remembered that Israel officially only evacuated Gaza in 2005. It has not ceded any claim to Gaza or parts of Gaza under the rights conferred on the Jewish people pursuant to the Mandate for Palestine and article 80 of the United Nations Charter to reconstitute the Jewish National Home in any part of that territory.

Israel had the inherent right of self defence under Article 51 of the United Nations Charter if an armed attack was made on it. That it absorbed 7000 rocket and mortar attacks after evacuating Gaza in 2005 before undertaking the invasion of Gaza last December would not have been endured for such a lengthy period by any other member of the United Nations had they been the recipient of such a barrage of rockets and mortars indiscriminately fired into civilian population centres.

UK group near Gaza demands EU pay to protect it from Hamas rockets
A group of U.K. citizens living in the northern Negev is demanding the European Union shoulder the cost of making their homes rocket-proof and stop funding Hamas, in a precedent-setting lawsuit recently filed against the EU.

The 14 British claimants and one Italian national joined their names this week to a lawsuit filed last month to the European Commission. As reported first by Haaretz, the suit by petitioner Eyal Katorza, a French national from Sderot, cited Article 3.5 of the European Treaty which states the Union will "contribute to the protection of its citizens" regardless of their whereabouts.

Cooper joins UN group's discussion of Muslim youth in Europe
Ucccchh the stealth caliphate and the scientifada, uber allies.
Cooper was invited by the United Nations Alliance of Civilizations to address a group of scholars, community leaders, and elected officials from 11 European nations during a two-day meeting in June entitled "Identity and Participation: Cross-Cultural and Muslim Youth in Europe." Established in 2005, the alliance is dedicated to exploring "the roots of polarization between societies and cultures today" and to developing a program to ease tensions. Its four program areas are youth, media, education, and migration.

"The United Nations is facilitating an open forum on these issues, and their focus on youth is especially important," said Cooper. Her talk, "Cultural Brokers: Helping Immigrant Youth on their Pathways to College Identities in Multicultural Societies," built on insights gleaned during an ongoing 15-year collaboration with Elizabeth Domínguez, director of the Cabrillo Advancement Program at Cabrillo College. Cooper's "Bridging Multiple Worlds" initiative explores and documents the "pathways" that Mexican immigrant youth build to move through the "academic pipeline" from childhood to college.

THEY MUST TO GET THE GOLAN!
Since the Justice and Development Party came to power in Turkey in the November 2002 elections and further enhanced its position in the July 2007 elections, Turkey’s foreign policy has started to show a considerable, unprecedented degree of interest in the Arab-Israel conflict, resulting in a series of attempts to mediate between the parties. These attempts were at first received with a certain degree of suspicion as to their purpose and scope. Eventually, however, they came to be seen as making significant contributions to the betterment of relations between the parties, until Israel’s Gaza offensive.

“Water war” scenarios have dominated headlines in different parts of the world, none more so than in the Middle East. One such scenario forecasts conflict between Turkey and its two downstream riparians Syria and Iraq. This has not happened, even though Turkey and Syria came to the brink of a confrontation in 1998 over a totally different issue, the Syrian role in harboring the head of the PKK terrorist organization.

General Electric may be the company with the closest ties to the Obama administration (if not, GE is second only to Goldman Sachs), and here we see the company benefiting from an abrupt foreign policy change made by President Obama. But GE isn't the only company benefiting. Reuters paints the broader picture: "U.S. companies have arguably lost out to some European companies in joint ventures, and better diplomacy will likely improve the chances for investors in the strategic sectors of the Russian economy," said Carlo Gallo, senior Russia analyst at London-based consultancy Control Risks.

Russia will more attentively listen to a range of concerns raised by the United States after Barack Obama decided to roll back a missile shield plan, Kremlin chief Dmitry Medvedev said in an interview published on Friday. "The fact that they are listening to us is an obvious signal that we should also attentively listen to our partners, our American partners," Medvedev said in an interview with Swiss media ahead of a meeting next week with Obama. "In politics there is always a score card," said Medvedev, though he said Moscow was not interested in "primitive compromises."

Turkmen, Chinese Workers Clash In Eastern Turkmenistan
A fracas between Chinese and Turkmen workers at an energy company in eastern Turkmenistan has left several people injured and hundreds detained, RFE/RL's Turkmen Service reports. The workers are employed by a Chinese energy company building a natural-gas pipeline in the eastern Samandepe and Yoloten regions.

About 200 Turkmen workers were reportedly detained and 15 Chinese workers were hospitalized after the 12 September clashes. Turkmen workers had complained of discrimination -- with Chinese allegedly getting higher wages for the same work -- and poor working conditions.

Tajikistan: Resistance to the Talibs to Be Worked Through War Games
On September 25 the Collective Rapid Reaction Forces of the Central Asian Region consisting of armed forces units of Russia and Tajikistan will participate in the joint tactical maneuvers with firing practice to be held on the Lyaur training ground near Dushanbe, Asia –Plus reports. The need for such war games was stipulated by the necessity to get ready for potential worsening of the situation at the border with Afghanistan.

“The recent military operations against the Taliban conducted by the Afghan Defense Ministry and NATO forces located on the territory of the Kunduz Province of the Islamic Republic of Afghanistan bordering on the Hatlon Region of Tajikistan may trigger passage of Talibs onto our territory. We should therefore be prepared to such a scenario. The current operational assembly will help to prepare the military management unit of CSTO” - said Lieutenant General Ramil Nadyrov, the First Deputy Minister of Defense of Tajikistan on September 17 speaking in Dushanbe.

The operational assembly is to be prepared and conducted under the joint efforts of the Tajik Ministry of Defense, the General Headquarters of Land Forces of the Russian Armed Forces and Consolidated Headquarters of CSTO. The program of the operations assembly includes practical and staff trainings. It will close with command staff maneuvers on the Lyaur firing ground near Dushanbe on September 25. Recently large scale complex war games “Cooperation-2009”-the first maneuvers of the Collective Security Treaty Organization’s Collective Rapid Reaction Forces (CSTO’s CRRF) were launched in Kazakhstan.

Countries joust over Central Asia military bases
BISHKEK (IPS/GIN) - A U.S. base located just 24.85 miles from a Russian base—it can happen in Kyrgyzstan, a new focal point in the great geopolitics of Central Asia where China and Turkey are beginning to show their cards as well. The country of five million is one of the Soviet Union's former republics in Central Asia, bordering China and the former Soviet republics Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan and Tajikistan. The area has historically been the centre of games between big powers: the Mongols, Arabs, the Chinese, the British and Russian empires have all striven to control this strategic territory. The U.S. is the big regional novelty. Its airbase has since 2001 been located right at Bishkek's Manas airport. U.S. military airplanes are among the first sights for someone landing in the country. Shortly after the U.S. set up base there, Russia opened another base at Kant airport, almost 25 miles from Bishkek. It has since tried to reassert its presence in what was once Soviet territory.

Professor gives Richard Dawkins a "D"
He was being generous.
Two years ago, Oklahoma State University philosophy professor Eric Reitan was given an excerpt from a book and asked “to evaluate it as if it were a student paper.”It was a critique on St. Thomas Aquinas’s argument for the existence of God, and in Reitan’s words, his pseudo-student got “Aquinas’s arguments dreadfully wrong.” Reitan decided that the student earned a “D” grade. The “student” was actually British biologist and outspoken atheist Richard Dawkins, and the excerpt came from his book “The God Delusion.”
