Patrick Clawson is one of the most influential neo-cons in the Washington Institute for Near East Studies. Clawson was caught on a video that he likely never thought would see the light of day, openly suggesting that the United States should provoke Iran into taking the first shot at Israel. ? Clawson is a well-known lobbyist for Israel. He is the director of research and head of the Iran Security Initiative at the Institute. He is the author or editor of eighteen books and studies on Iran as well as more than 150 articles on the Middle East. He has previously worked with the National Defense University, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund, among other institutions. His suggestion seems to amount to advising a false flag of some sort in order to inaugurate a joint U.S. and Israeli war on Iran. Watch the video below and help SPREAD THE WORD! You can watch the original full video below. In the full length video, recorded over lunch on September 21, 2012 Dennis Ross, Patrick Clawson, and David Makovsky discuss how the United States and Israel can regain the initiative in halting Iran’s progress toward nuclear weapons. Clawson’s comments start around 1 hour 15 minutes into the discussion. If you think this story matters, help us get the word out, because the mainstream, corporate media seems uninterested in covering stories like this!

These pigs deserve what they shall receive.
You can be sure that Iran is aware of this long before the news got here. The Iranians are a lot more rational than the West credits them. It is going to take the sort of twisting that will look suspicious to the rest of the world from the get-go. I'm not saying the US/Israel won't try it or work to try it, but it won't be easy. John Howard says: There are 4 schools of economics: Democrats don't mind war as long as they can have big government. Republicans don't mind big government as long as they can have war.
"If you love wealth more than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, depart from us in peace. We ask not your counsel nor your arms. Crouch down and lick the hand that feeds you. May your chains rest lightly upon you and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”—Samuel Adams
