Will Ukraine Become the New Israel?

 

By Richard C. Cook

 

Call it a conspiracy theory if you like, but I have read in more than one place that the hidden agenda of the US in Ukraine is to create a new homeland for people from Israel who want to migrate there in order to get out of what increasingly is becoming a failed state headed for collapse.

 

It’s easy to ridicule this theory, but I think there’s something to it.

 

Israel does look more and more like a failed state. It consists of a handful of Jewish people—fewer than nine million—clinging to a dry and inhospitable patch of rock and sand on the eastern Mediterranean coast, where they are isolated amid a vast human ocean of Muslim populations and culture.

 

I say this not as someone who is either anti-Semitic or an opponent of Israel. I am not anti-anyone nor an opponent of any people, ethnic group, or nation. In fact I am immensely sympathetic toward anyone caught up in the absurdities and violence of life in the world today.

 

But let’s be realistic. Look at Israel’s present condition. But first back up a bit. It’s a commonly-held belief that the British originally acquiesced in designating Palestine as a future homeland for Jewish people as an attempt to establish a pro-Western beachhead in a region rich in mineral wealth. Fast forward nearly a century to the US’s War on Terror, which has failed miserably. This was a campaign that was obviously meant to run interference for Israel in its emergence as a leading regional power within the Middle East, or maybe even a global power. Or at least to prevent it from being eventually obliterated by enemies on every side.

 

Look at the number of nations the War on Terror was meant to take out. According to US General Wesley Clark, the American hero of the bombing of Serbia in the late 1990s, the inventory of nations to be subjected to pro-US regime change was to include, with Afghanistan then already occupied, Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan, and Iran.

 

Now, the War on Terror has largely been abandoned after more than twenty wasted years at the cost of untold trillions of dollars. Though the US crushed and humiliated Iraq, that nation has come back to the point of legislating a complete ban, up to the death penalty, on any normalization of relations with Israel. Lebanon is an economic disaster, but is largely controlled by Israel’s arch-enemy Hezbollah. Iran remains independent and defiant, despite US threats and sanctions.
