Arrested
spy for Israel, Larry Franklin |
Yesterday,
Pentagon analyst and Iran specialist Larry
A. Franklin was arrested
by the FBI. The
charge: turning over classified U.S. government documents
to two operatives of the American
Israeli Political Affairs Committee (AIPAC), longtime
policy director Steve
Rosen and his deputy Keith
Weissman.
As Michael
Isikoff and Mark Hosenball pointed
out when the Franklin affair first came to light: "Franklin's
motive appears to have been ideological rather than financial."
What
ideology are they talking about? Unconditional support to
Israel has always been a
central tenet of neoconservative doctrine. As we have
argued
in
these
pages
for
years,
American foreign policy has been shaped – and
distorted – by a cabal of ideologues who put Israel, not
America, first. Franklin's arrest confirms our thesis in spades.
It's no
accident that Franklin was part of the Pentagon policy shop
presided over by DoD undersecretary Douglas
Feith, who also presided over the infamous "Office
of Special Plans" – which was set up to funnel
misinformation about Iraq's nonexistent
"weapons of mass destruction" and lie us into war.
Israel's
fifth column in Washington is about to be exposed – big
time.
Franklin's
is going to be one exciting trial.
