THE INSIDE HISTORY OF THE ISRAEL LOBBY Former top CIA analysts Kathleen and Bill Christison give CounterPunchers the real scoop on the Israel lobby and precisely how powerful it is. Read how US presidents from Wilson, through FDR to Truman were manipulated by the Zionist lobby; how Israel bent LBJ, Reagan and Clinton to its purpose; how Bush's White House has been the West Wing of the Israeli government; how Washington's revolving doors send full-time Israel lobbyists from think-tanks to the National Security Council and the Pentagon's Office of Special Plans. For all who want a true measure of the Lobby's power, the Christisons' 8-page dossier, exclusive to CounterPunch newsletter subscribers, is a MUST read.

June 8, 2006 Cadaverous Queen of Conservatives Smears 9/11 WidowsAnn Coulter's Blood LustBy LLOYD WILLIAMS
How does Ann Coulter continue to get
away with it? In the I daresay that if I were to suggest, even in jest, that some prominent political figure deserved to be murdered, I'd find myself in handcuffs and leg-irons and frog-hopped to Federal prison faster than you could say "The Patriot Act." But Coulter, the conservative queen of agit-propaganda, remains a media darling despite continuously venturing beyond partisan politics into the relam of deliberately inflammatory hate speech. Most recently, on June 05, the cadaverous blonde was interviewed by Matt Lauer on The Today Show, where she had been invited to promote her new book, "Godless: The Church of Liberalism." When Matt asked her to explain the President's record-low approval ratings, she launched into an attack on the 9/11 widows, ostensibly because some of them have questioned the Bush Administration's lack of response to the warning signs of the impending terrorist attack which claimed their husbands' lives. Although offered an opportunity to retract her crude comments, an unrepentant Ann refused to apologize, but rather continued to spew her odious brand of bile. Unfortunately, Lauer ended the awkward segment not by distancing himself with a disclaimer, but by thanking his gangly guest with "Ann Coulter, always fun to have you." Why does this overspun media whore have free access to the airwaves all across the national-TV talk show circuit? Aren't the corporate sponsors embarrassed by such a disgraceful display of insensitivity and arrogance? The answer undoubtedly lies with the blonde hair, blue eyes and mini-skirt, combined with her uncritical support of the President's party line, all so defiantly delivered in a most politically-incorrect fashion. However, given the gradual browning of America, you have to question the wisdom of Bush turning to such a vicious hatemonger to trumpet a Republican agenda which appeals to a rapidly-shrinking and deranged demographic. I guess desperate times still
call for desperate measures.
