Hasbara: ‘Bibi has turned Israel into Iran’

Source

One has to agree that when it comes to demonize one’s enemy – no one can do a better job than a Zionist-Jew writer. He can turn Ahmadinejad into a Hitler or even a Jew. He can turn Qaddafi into a Jew and anti-Semite. He can turn Ayatullah Ali Khamenie into the Arab-hating Rabbi Ovadia Josef.
Yoel Marcus in his Ha’aretz Op-Ed (November 18, 2011), entitled ‘Netanyahu’s policies have turned Israel into Iran“, wrote: “Both Khamenei and Yosef have influence on question of war and peace. Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad isn’t going to push that button without authorization from Khamenei, just as our prime minister and defense minister make pilgrimages to our Master and Teacher on the issue of Iranian threat“.

Rabbi Yosef is the founder of Ultra-Orthodox Shepardic political party, Shas, which has 11 members in the Knesset. Shas is part of Netanyahu’s Jewish supremacist Likud government. Rabbi Yosef is known for demanding the annihilation of Arabs in 2001. Rabbi Josef is not recognized as Israel’s spiritual leader and such has no authority to declare a war under Israel law and he is not the Supreme Commander of Israel’s Armed Forces. Contrary to that, Ayatullah Ali Khamenei doesn’t have a political party and MPs in Iranian Majlis. In fact, Iranian Constitution doesn’t allow registered political parties at all. Ayatullah Khamenei was elected President of Iran for eight years before selected to replace Imam Khomeini as the Guardian of the Islamic Revolution after later’s death. As country’s Spiritual Leader, under Iranian Constitution, Ayatullah Khamenei heads Iran’s Armed Forces and has the authority to declare war to defend the country or Islamic Revolution. Furthermore, Ayatullah Khamenei has never called for the annihilation of Jews or Israelis.

Interestingly, on the “Iranian threat”, Yoel Marcus provided the answer himself by quoting former Mossad chief Gen. Efraim Halevy, who said: “The Ultra-Orthodox are scarier than the Iranian bomb“. What in fact Efraim Halevy said, as reported by Israeli daily Ynet on November 4 – “The growing Haredi radicalization poses a bigger risk than Ahmadinejad”. Haley said, adding that “the Ultra-Orthodox extremism has darkened our lives“. Former Mossad Chief also warned against an Israeli strike on Islamic Republic; saying that the result of confrontation could be devastating for the Mideast.
“The state of Israel cannot be destroyed. An attack on Iran could affect not only Israel, but the entire region for 100 years“.

Incidently, former Mossad chief Gen. Meir Dagan claimed last year that Iran would not be able to produce a nuclear bomb before 2015.
