Leading Arabic Weekly Covers LaRouche vs. Cheney
Al-Bayader, the leading Arabic political weekly magazine in East Jerusalem, published a lengthy article Dec. 20, detailing Lyndon LaRouche's continuing campaign to oust Vice President Dick Cheney and his gang of neo-conservatives.
Headlined "Daring Statements from U.S. Democratic Presidential Candidate Lyndon LaRouche: Dick Cheney's hand behind every crime, overthrowing Bush now means appointing Cheney as President," the article quotes from LaRouche's Oct. 22 webcast in Washington D.C., using many of LaRouche's quotes as sub-headlines: "The Palestinians are the victim. Every sane Jew realizes that the current Israeli policy will lead to its destruction"; "If I become President, I would tell Sharon: Listen, you'll not get a single dollar.... If you set the fire, don't complain about the flames."
The article tries to explain why LaRouche, and no one else, has targeted Cheney and not Bush.
It starts as follows: "Hearing all the noise aroused by U.S. President George Bush's behavior, which has become an example of stupidity around the world, the following question could seem a bit strange, but very necessary to be raised: Who is running the U.S., indeed? And, who is responsible for the growing hatred against the U.S.? Is the U.S. President suffering some mental sickness, or there is someone else running him?...
"Democratic Presidential candidate for 2004 Lyndon LaRouche replies with details and facts on this question, and emphasizes that Vice President Cheney, who shies away from the limelight, is the one who is planning, running, and implementing the dirtiest operations run out of the United States. The President, according to LaRouche, is nothing more than a tool in the hands of Cheney and the Zionist gang around him, and that he is run by the dirtiest and most dangerous.
"That is first and foremost the single reason why LaRouche has declared, on every occasion, his opposition to impeaching Bush before his term is out. That is not because LaRouche loves Bush, but because of fear of what could come later. If Bush is impeached, you'll have the false copy being removed and the original coming in, in the form of Cheney becoming the President. This is going to be the greatest of all catastrophes which the world has so far seen from the Bush Administration."
The article then continues to describe what LaRouche has been saying about the Bush policy in the Middle East, Cheney's dirty role in that, and LaRouche's proposed solutions for the Middle East. The article references LaRouche's Oct. 22 webcast and various articles in Executive Intelligence Review (EIR), exposing Cheney and the neo-cons network.
Al-Bayader is the first Arabic political weekly magazine to be published since 1981 in "occupied Jerusalem." The website of the International Press Center of the Palestinian National Authority places it among "the most important sites." It is edited by a group of Christian and Muslim Palestinians.
