The Media, Ron Paul and a Third Rail named Vanunu Mordechai

Includes a letter to Ron Paul dispatched today.

(CLERMONT, Fla.) - One week before the Iowa caucus as Ron Paul’s poll numbers are surging, the Media’s scrutiny is focused on the contents of an “investment newsletter” that Paul produced and profited from back in the ’80s and ’90s.  Entitled the “Ron Paul Investment Newsletter” or the “Ron Paul Survival Newsletter” it also contained a series of racially biased attacks.

Paul maintains he didn’t write the pieces but The Washington Post is running a series of four columns this week examining “how factual Rep. Ron Paul (R-Tex.) has been in describing his career in politics” entitled Fact Checker: Ron Paul and the racist newsletters.

I posted a few comments, beginning with this one:


 

 

Google “The Serial Hypocrisy of The Media vis-a-vis Ron Paul and Mordechai Vanunu” which is the first in THAT ongoing series!

 

PS: The photo is of me and ‘retired’ as in fired White House Correspondent Helen Thomas. Google “An Evening with Helen Thomas and Flashback to John Lennon and Vanunu Mordechai” for the first in THAT ongoing series.

Time will tell if WaPo will follow that lead and another comment that led to "Back to Ron Paul, The Media and Mordechai Vanunu" Read more…

On Christmas Eve I posted the following comment to Mordechai Vanunu’s Youtube channel:

It is lame to wish you a Merry Christmas when I wish you a FINAL Christmas in a place that is not home to you and decades more in full freedom, health and happiness.

“The ‘Serial Hypocrisy’ of The Media vis-a-vis Ron Paul and Mordechai Vanunu” has spread to multiple pages on a Google Search and i think mostly because many Americans are favoring Ron Paul for president. So my next step is try to reach him and remind him that in 1996, 36 congressional reps stood up for Vanunu’s freedom because “we have a duty to stand up for men and women like Vanunu who dare to articulate a brighter vision for humanity.”

My letter to Ron Paul:

December 27, 2011

Dear Representative Ron Paul,

I am seeking your response to the following to be published in a series regarding The Serial Hypocrisy of The Media vis-a-vis Ron Paul and Mordechai Vanunu.

In April 1999, thirty-six members of the House of Representatives sent a letter to President Clinton regarding the incarceration of Israel’s nuclear whistle blower because they believed "we have a duty to stand up for men and women like Mordechai Vanunu who dare to articulate a brighter vision for humanity."

President Clinton responded with a public statement expressing concern for Vanunu and the need for Israel and other non-parties to the Non-Proliferation Treaty to adhere to it and accept IAEA safeguards.

Were you one of the 36 congressional representatives who signed that letter?

Will you also comment regarding what Vanunu told me in 2005:

“Did you know that President Kennedy tried to stop Israel from building atomic weapons? In 1963, he forced Prime Minister Ben Guirion to admit the Dimona was not a textile plant, as the sign outside proclaimed, but a nuclear plant. The Prime Minister said, ‘The nuclear reactor is only for peace.’

“Kennedy insisted on an open internal inspection. He wrote letters demanding that Ben Guirion open up the Dimona for inspection.

“When Johnson became president, he made an agreement with Israel that two senators would come every year to inspect. Before the senators would visit, the Israelis would build a wall to block the underground elevators and stairways. From 1963 to ’69, the senators came, but they never knew about the wall that hid the rest of the Dimona from them.

“Nixon stopped the inspections and agreed to ignore the situation. As a result, Israel increased production. In 1986, there were over two hundred bombs. Today, they may have enough plutonium for ten bombs a year.”

If you were President what would you do?

Thank you for your consideration and most sincerely all the best,

Vanunu addressed The Media just prior to being sent back to solitary confinement for 78 days in the summer of 2010- the outcome of his freedom of speech trial and essentially punishment for speaking to foreign media in 2004 after he emerged from 18 years in a windowless tomb sized cell for telling the world the truth about Israel’s 7-story underground weapons of mass destruction facility at the Dimona plant in the Negev Valley:

I'm Black and I support Ron Paul. He didn't write the racist remarks and he is not a white supremacist. The Newsletter Quotes: One of the quotes said some really awful things about Martin Luther King Jr. If Ron Paul wrote these things, why did he vote TWICE to make Martin Luther King Jr. Day a public holiday? Why would he refer to King as a hero? Racist Beliefs: White supremacists are simply not in the habit of pointing out the inherent bias against Blacks in military recruiting and our judicial system. It doesn't happen. Ron Paul is not one of them. Period. MOVE ON!!!
