For all intents and purposes, somebody should take Wolf 'Neocon' Blitzer's microphone cord and wrap him up in it around the nearest tree.
First off, Blitzer belongs writing Bush cabal propaganda behind a Pentagon desk since his CNN news room looks more like a war room anyway.
Second, Blitzer's show, called The Situation Room, doesn't really cover the news, but only a bastardized version of it, scripted by his bosses who are pushing the neocon agenda like there "ain't no tomorrow."
Finally, his latest interview with Harry Belafonte confirms Blitzer to be nothing more than a neocon shill placed in a high position to propagandize the New World Order/Illuminati game plan.
For example, listen to Blitzer's arrogant and "all-trusting government" position taken when trying to set up Belafonte for a on-air fall in the Jan. 23 interview, an interview where he tries desperately but fails in discrediting Belafonte for recently calling Bush "the biggest terrorist" on the planet:
BLITZER: Mr. Belafonte, thanks very much. Welcome to THE SITUATION ROOM.
Doesn't this sound more like a journalistic torture chamber than a place where free and open thought is encouraged..
BLITZER: The new Gestapo. You know, those are powerful words, calling an
agency of the U.S. government, the Department of Homeland Security with, what,
about 300,000 federal employees, the new Gestapo. Do you want to take that back?
Why does Blitzer encourage Belafonte to take back his words instead of asking him why he called Homeland Security a Gestapo force? Further Blitzer draws a reference to 300,000 Americans when it is obvious Belafonte was referring to the leadership of the Homeland Security not the thousands of innocent paper pushers just drawing a paycheck.
After the obviously slanted question geared at angering average working folk against Belafonte, the activist-entertainer stood his ground, explaining he was standing by what he previously stated, adding:
BELAFONTE: We've taken citizens from this country without the right to be charged,
without being told what they're taken for, we've spirited them out of this country,
taken them to far away places and reports come back with some consistency
that they are being tortured, that they're not being told what they've done. And
even some who have been released have come back and testified to this fact.
Now listen closely to Blitzer's next question. Instead of following up and encouraging Belafonte to expound on his reasoning or asking for further examples or proof of Homeland Security abuses, Blitzer immediately draws the "Jew Card" out of his neocon bag of tracks, trying to pin Belafonte's Gestapo reference as somehow being anti-semetic
BLITZER: But let me interrupt for a second. Are you familiar -- and I'm sure you are, because you're an intelligent man -- what the Gestapo did to the Jews in World War II?
Now, who isn't familiar with that, Mr. 'Nazi' Blitzer. In fact, at this point Blitzer could gain more respect as a person, instead of acting like a slimy weasel, if he just came out and said: "Look, Harry, we have to make you look bad because no one is allowed around here to call President Bush a terrorist even if he is one."
But for the sake of seeing just how far down the "Jew path" Blitzer takes Belafonte for no good reason, let's listen to the next portion of the interview.
BLITZER: And you think that what the Department of Homeland Security is doing to, you know, some U.S. citizens suspected of terrorism is similar to what the Nazis did to the Jew?
BELAFONTE: Well, if you're taking people out of a country and spiriting them someplace else, and they're being tortured, and they're being charged without -- or not being charged, so they don't know what it is they've done.
It may not have been directly inside the Department of Homeland Security, but the pattern, the system, it's what the system does. It's what all these different divisions have begun to reveal in their collective.
My phones are tapped. OK? My mail can be opened. They don't even need a court warrant to come and do that as we once were required to do.
BLITZER: But no one has taken you or anyone else, as far as I can tell, to an extermination camp and by the tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands, even millions decided to kill them, which is what the Nazis did.
BELAFONTE: Well, Mr. Blitzer, let me say this to you, perhaps, just perhaps had the Jews of Germany and people spoken out much earlier and had resisted the tyranny that was on the horizon, perhaps we would never have had...
BLITZER: Well, wait a minute, wait a minute, are you blaming the Jews of Germany for what Hitler did to them?
BELAFONTE: No, no. What I'm saying is that if it an awakened citizenry,
begins to oppose the first inkling of the subversion of government, of the subversion of our democracy, then perhaps an early warning would have saved the world
a lot of what we all experienced. I'm not accusing the Jews at all.
BLITZER: Well, I just heard you say perhaps if the Jews of Germany had done something earlier then that might not have happened. That's what I thought you
were getting at.
BELAFONTE: Well, what I was getting at really is that if all citizens, the Jewish community, the Christian community and all else had taken a very early aggressive stand rather than somehow suggesting or thinking or feeling that this would have gone away, we might have found that Germany would have been in a far different place than it wound up in.
At this point, Blitzer finally tried to address Belafonte's statement, calling Bush the greatest terrorist ad tyrant in the world when the singer recently visited with Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
Again, instead of simply asking his reasons why, Blitzer tries to unfairly corner Belafonte by bringing up a comparison of Osama bin Laden. Further, he trifles with the meaning of the word "greatest" as well as asking the singer if he feels the Bush administration is the same, if not worse than Al Qaeda.
Before listening to this segment of the interview, somebody please inform Blitzer facts exist leading to a conclusion that beyond a reasonable doubt bin Laden and Al Qaeda are on the CIA payroll and have been a creation of the Bush administration, designed to take the blame for our own government's terrorist actions.
Further, inform Blitzer in reference to his statements blaming Al Qaeda for 911that substantial evidence exists leading to the conclusion that beyond a reasonable doubt 911 was an inside job put together by the Bush administration, not Al Qaeda
Here is Blitzer at his best trying to slip-up Belafonte while misleading America by assuming bin Laden and Al Qaeda are the real enemy.
BLITZER: When you were in Venezuela with Hugo Chavez, you said that Bush is the greatest terrorist, the greatest tyrant. Are you saying that President Bush is worse than Osama bin Laden?
BELAFONTE: I'm saying that he's no better. You know, it's hard to make a hyperbole stick. I obviously haven't had a chance to meet all the terrorists in the world, so I have no reason to throw around the words like the greatest or make some qualitative statement. I do believe he is a terrorist.
I do believe that what our government does has terror in the center of its agenda. When you lie to the American people, when you've misled them and you've taken our sons and daughters to foreign lands to be destroyed, and you look at tens of thousands of Arab women and children and innocent people being destroyed each day, under the title of collateral damage, I think there's something very wrong with the leadership.
BLITZER: What you did say in Venezuela was that President Bush was, and I'm
quoting now, the greatest tyrant in the world and the greatest terrorist in the world.
BELAFONTE: Yes, I did say that.
BLITZER: So you did use the word, the greatest.
Here's what you were quoted as saying in "The Raleigh News and Observer" on January 16th. And I'll let you amend or clarify your remarks.
"When you have a president that has led us into a dishonorable war, who has killed tens of thousands, many of them our own sons and daughters, what is the difference between those who would fly airplanes into buildings killing 3,000 innocent Americans? What is the difference between that terror and other terrors?"
Now that raises the issue of moral equivalency. Are you saying what the Bush administration, what the president is doing is the moral equivalent of what al Qaeda and Osama bin Laden ordered on 9/11?
BELAFONTE: I think President George W. Bush, I think Cheney, I think Rumsfeld, I think all of these people have lost any moral integrity. I find what we are doing is hugely immoral to the American people and to others in the world.
BLITZER: And the same, or if not worse than al Qaeda? Is that what you're saying?
BELAFONTE: Well, I don't want to make those kind of comparisons. I'm not too sure all of what al Qaeda has done. Al Qaeda tortures. We torture. Al Qaeda's killed innocent people. We kill innocent people. Where do the lines get blurred here?
BLITZER: Well, I think the argument is, and correct me if I'm wrong, that al Qaeda deliberately wanted to kill as many people as possible in the World Trade Center and those two buildings. They didn't care if they were executives or janitors or crooks or anybody else. They just wanted to kill as many Americans as possible.
The U.S., when it goes after terrorists, there may be what's called collateral damage, but they're trying to kill enemies of the United States, those who have engaged in terror or similar actions. Do you understand the difference?
BELAFONTE: I understand the difference. What I don't want to get stuck with, or be guided by, is what you call collateral damage. That does not cleanse us morally. All of a sudden, it's beyond our capacity or our means to have made a difference in what we've done to thousands and thousands of Arabs.
I'm quite sure if you went through each and every body, you would find that somebody was a baker, somebody was a store keeper, somebody was a cab driver, somebody was a student. I don't know, you know, murder is murder. And just because you may do it under different guises does not remove the moral imperative.
We are in this war immorally and illegally. And we have no business doing what we do.
Editor's Note: Blitzer is the son of a Polish Jew, who started his career in Tel Aviv bureau for Reuters in 1972. It should be noted while studying international relations at John Hopkins University, he was good buddies with neocon shill Robert Novak. It also should be noted, a person is part and parcel of who he associates with, making it clear Blitzer's strong ties and allegiance to the New World Order, not getting the facts and truth out to the American people.
