I think that rather than allude to a conspiracy, the analyst should have focused on the “emergence of an Islamist, neo-Ottoman Empire,” backed by Obama. In my recent article I wrote “that Obama was actively involved with promoting the Brotherhood as a strategy in transforming the Middle East and containing Iran” and “To my mind, the alliance between the Obama administration and the Muslim Brotherhood is the cornerstone of Obama’s New Middle East policy.” Ted Belman
The Conspiracy to Use NATO Against Israel
Foreign Confidential
Kosovo … Libya … Palestine?
Tripoli Today, Tel Aviv Tomorrow?
A chilling, admittedly rushed early warning from Foreign Confidential™ analysts … upon information and belief, as lawyers like to say.
A once unthinkable conspiracy is afoot–to deploy NATO forces against a strategic U.S. ally that is also the only democracy in the Middle East.
The country is Israel, of course, the tiny Jewish State that has never known a day of peace since its miraculous rebirth in its ancient homeland.
Barack Obama’s reelection is central to the perfidious plot. Obama is the only U.S. Presidential candidate who is sufficiently hostile to Israel to go along with the conspiracy, as the potential usefulness of the only anti-Israel GOP hopeful, Ron Paul, is neutralized by his marginal appeal and old-line isolationism (recalling the likes of aviator Charles Lindbergh and other Nazi supporters and sympathizers in the years leading up to the Second World War).
The Conspirators
The three (European-born) authors of the anti-Israel conspiracy are Jimmy Carter’s former National Security Advisor, Zbigniew Brzezinski, Obama foreign policy advisor Samantha Power, and her patron, George Soros, the anti-Zionist, leftwing billionaire. Brzezinski, who was the architect of the Carter administration’s intervention in Afghanistan on the side of Islamist warlords–before and in order to bring about the Soviet invasion of that country–and the brain behind the administration’s catastrophic complicity in the Islamist overthrow of Iran’s pro-American, modernizing monarch, Shah Mohammed Reza Pahlavi, has advocated U.S. downing of Israeli warplanes if Israel attacks Iran’s nuclear installations without Washington’s approval. Power has proposed using U.S. and United Nations troops to impose a “Responsibility to Protect” (Palestinians) solution on Israel.
The Longterm Objective
The conspiracy’s longterm objective is to use the R2P doctrine and the Kosovo-inspired intervention in Libya’s civil war–on the side of Al Qaeda-connected Islamists–as a precedent for forcing Israel to withdraw to indefensible borders in order to create a “contiguous Palestinian state,” as Obama put it in a recent speech, consisting of the Hamas-ruled Gaza Strip, which is already a de-facto independent, Islamist state; the disputed “West Bank” territories of Judea and Samaria, and East Jerusalem, which Israel liberated from Jordan in the Six-Day War of June 1967; and a land corridor connecting Gaza with the aforementioned inland areas west of the Jordan river. It is further understood that Hamas will emerge as the ruler of the combined, new entity, and that this inherently irredentist mini-state will eventually merge with a Muslim Brotherhood-ruled country in what is now the Kingdom of Jordan following the inevitable overthrow of the Jordanian monarchy, thus creating an Islamist Palestine on both sides of the river Jordan that will ultimately “liberate” all of Palestine–meaning, the destruction of Israel, whose very existence the conspirators regard as a historic “mistake” and the root cause of regional instability.
The Crucial Player
NATO-member Turkey, Obama’s model Islamocracy, is a crucial player in the plot. Turkey’s Prime Minister recently called for U.N. airstrikes on Israel. More important, Turkey is a major military power and a potential existential threat to Israel, especially given a scenario in which Israel would be forced to defend itself on at least two land fronts–i.e. against Egypt and Jordan/Palestine.
Like their Shiite Islamist Iranian rivals, Turkey’s Sunni Islamist leaders have adopted an imperialist foreign policy–i.e. a policy that aims to overthrow a nation’s power relationships with other nations, known as the status quo. But Turkish imperialism, in contrast with Iranian imperialism, is supported by the Obama administration. Having failed in their efforts to appease and align with Iran in order to pacify Afghanistan and the Middle East, Obama and his advisors are now bent on backing the emergence of an Islamist, neo-Ottoman Empire, hoping to use a Greater Turkey as both a bulwark against a nuclear-armed Iran and a sword against resurgent Russia and rising China and their strengthening ties–Obama’s answer to the Shanghai Cooperation Organization.
Political and overlapping organized and state Islam is the tool; the vast energy resources of Central Asia, the prize; countering Russia and dismembering China, by stirring rebellion among restive Muslims, priceless! (Click here to read more about this new version of the Great Game.)
The Unknown Factor
Syria is the unknown factor–a potential spoiler whose actions could actually facilitate and accelerate the conspiracy, causing its implementation in the coming months, as shocking as this may seem. With the fall of Libya’s dictator, all eyes are on Syria’s embattled despot. Turkey has hinted at intervening in the Muslim Brotherhood-backed, Sunni, majority, Syrian uprising against the hated, Iran-backed, Alawite (Shiite branch) minority, Assad regime; and Obama has explicitly called for Assad’s resignation. When push comes to shove, Syria could attack Israel to get back at the United States and muddy the waters. Damascus and Tehran have already indirectly attacked Israel, using Egyptian Islamist and Gaza-based, Palestinian Islamist terrorists as proxies, in order to distract attention from the Syrian regime’s atrocities and brutality. This year’s cross-border, Nakba-Day riots were similarly orchestrated by Syria and Iran.
An Israeli response to a direct Syrian assault would most likely bring Iranian proxies Hezbollah and Hamas into the conflict, and, quite possibly, Iran, itself, which has repeatedly vowed to “burn Tel Aviv” and bomb Israel’s Negev nuclear reactor. Should Israeli population centers come under heavy missile bombardment, crushing Israeli airstrikes against Gaza and Lebanese targets–missile launchers deliberately positioned in and around densely populated civilian areas–would almost certainly result in international condemnation of Israel (the only nation that is not allowed to defend itself) and thunderous calls for UN action against the Jewish State, setting the stage for another phony R2P intervention.
NATO against Israel?
It’s a horrible thought. But history has time and again shown that the unthinkable can happen.

@ steven L:
Libya may be the model but then should they consider ourselves on the level of Gaddafi? Gaddafi had the weaponry to put up a fight against NATO (America) but kept them in storage ( Now making their way to Gaza). America will need to denuke Israel before they try it. I think that’s where Iran comes in. Look for some offer of quid pro quo in the not too distant future. My gut tells me that the American effort to support the Palis and de-facto allow Iran to proceed with nuke development is to squeeze Israel loose from our nukes, pushing us back to 1948 borders, then allow the Arabs to try and finish us off while remaining even handed.
The prize is oil for them either way. Israel could counter by invading Saudi Arabia confiscating the oil fields and production facilities and then selling all the oil we can pump at cost or near cost. Who would object? Global economies would soar. We establish a Muslim occupational mercenary force there and then leave. Sound fantastic? It’s doable.
Now that Israel has discovered humongous reserves of oil and gas it would make sense for the Jews-haters (from Left and right) to get rid of her and replace her by a “Palestinized” state and celebrate the deal with a new holocaust. Kafka would not imagine better.
Beyond a shadow of a doubt, NATO’s illegal intervention in Libya was prelude to a NATO intervention in Israel. May G-d Bless and Protect Israel. We need our troops home from Iraq and Afghanistan. They need to arrest Obama and Holder for being the criminals that they are.

@ Paul:
Georgia did not launch “aggression” against South Ossetia; it tried to bring a rebellious break-away province under control. Ad “nothing happened”? Russia attacked Georgia, occupying areas that it still holds in violation of international law. If the UN had any guts, it would sanction Russia for this aggressive war. But the UN only picks on small countries with minimal roles on the international stage — except, of course, for Israel.
I hope it isn’t so, but it would not surprise me. I would turn in my U.S. Army gear and see if they could use me on the frontlines defending Israel. When we stop blessing Israel and start cursing the apple of G-ds eye, our nation will lose its blessing.
If it were unthinkable it could never happen–it is very thinkable–and very evil! What the evil powers that be, i.e., Barack Obama, Samantha Power, Susan Rice, Hillary Clinton et al do not realize is–God is on Israel’s side and not theirs–they will never see the destruction of Israel–but those who come against Israel will in fact be destroyed!
Why was this comment now under moderation? 34 words all kosher and no links?
Nato is America. A handy tool to bypass Congress! When America needs a fig leaf for military adventurism they know won’t get by the congress and provide American arms manufacturers with a ready market.
NATO is a zombie alliance. NATO derived its legitimacy from being a Cold War bulwark against the Warsaw Pact in the East, but with the collapse of the Soviet Union one can only wonder what purpose it serves. When Georgia, as a NATO member, launched aggression against Ossetia, a confrontation with Russia, Ossetia’s backer, loomed. But fortunately nothing happened. NATO bombed Serbia during the breakup of the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia when Serbs were defending themselves from sudden nationalist uprisings in Croatia, Bosnia and Kosovo. These were nationalist uprisings that had their roots in the Nazi allied genocidal movements of WWII. No matter, the Serbs were bombed into submission and NATO remains in place in Kosovo to prop up a gangster state dominating Kosovo. Croatia is blatantly unrepentant and admiring of its WWII regime that sent hundreds of thousands of Serbs to its own death camps and quickly became a happy NATO member. Serbs were murdered and purged from Croatia and Serb defenders in Croatia and Bosnia were dragged off as war criminals to the ICTY in the Hague.
Is it not obvious that a similar fate awaits Israel? NATO is just warming up in Lybia and of course Israel must make nice to Turkey, another NATO member. Who knows, if Lybia and Egypt can make the same kind of noises that Turkey makes, NATO membership might be in their future as well.
You don’t think Israel has pre-emptive plans with all these different scenario’s short of using the Sampson(nuclear weapons) option???How much covert activity is already in play with the Mossad? Not much required to topple Assad in Syria and Ahmedinajad in Iran/Persia given ‘full play’ orders from the Israeli PM. If Israel thought its existence were really in jeopardy the ‘Arab spring’ would be a cake walk with Israel covertly supplying weapons to Arab groups that want to kill each other. It would be turmoil in the Arab world and Middle East such has never yet been seen with Israel secretly pulling the strings so that the Arab enemies would kill each other. Hmmm, sounds something like the methods HaSh-m used if you read HIS BOOK, the TORAH (Hebrew Bible), examples. Jews can always learn from HaSh-m’s Word when they pay attention to HIM.
Sampson option – choke on it NATO.
