• Israel and Its US Lobby Finally Achieve a Long-Term Objective: Direct US-Iranian Military Conflict

  In 1953 the United States and United Kingdom overthrew the democratically elected Iranian Prime Minister Mohammad Mosaddegh. The catalyst was the Iranian government’s decision to exert more sovereign control over the extraction, export and revenues from its domestic energy industry, which British Petroleum and the UK opposed.

  The dictatorial rule of Shah Mohammad Reza Pahlavi featured massive embezzlement, graft, corruption and repression. Brutal SAVAK crackdowns on popular dissent were aided and abetted by Israeli intelligence operatives that flooded into the regime. Yaakov Nimrodi, a longtime intelligence and military operative and arms merchant, was posted to Tehran in 1955 for 13 years. According to Nimrodi, “When one day we shall be permitted to talk about all that we have done in Iran, you will be horrified…It is beyond your imagination.”

  Iranian Israel relations were so close, that when American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) Executive Director Isaiah Kenen was under U.S. investigation as an Israeli foreign agent in 1961, he fled to Iran to thwart a subpoena.

  “In 1961, it was rumored that [Senator J. William] Fulbright intended to investigate foreign agents. I was subjected to a barrage of inquiries from friends and foes wherever I went, and while I was confident that I would survive the attack I decided to vanish from the scene. Coincidentally, I was invited that year to visit Iran as a guest of the Iranian government. I accepted the invitation…” Source, “All my causes in an 80-Year Life Span” Washington, DC, Near East Research, 1985, p 103.

  AIPAC was not incorporated at the time, and its host organization the American Zionist Council (AZC) was ordered to register as an Israeli foreign agent in 1962. Though covered by the order, AIPAC quickly split off and took over as the lead Israel lobbying organization in the US The Department of Justice never enforced its FARA order.

  Israeli arms sales to Iran under the Shah were extremely lucrative. In 1977, Israeli Defense Minister Shimon Peres signed a secret agreement for advanced technology transfer of an Israeli missile design that had been underway since the 1950s. This “turn-key” package included a special airport, a missile assembly plant, and a long-range test site in exchange for $1 billion in Iranian oil. Israel even attempted to interest Iran in Israel’s US funded, but doomed, Lavi jet fighter project.

  The 1979 Iranian Revolution finally ousted the Shah. Fifty-two American diplomats and citizens were held hostage for 444 days during the hostage crisis. But Israel in the 1980s, with a failing economy and desperate to salvage its partnership with a major regional oil producer, helped orchestrate a secret “arms for hostages” deal to the Ayatollah purported to help free Americans kidnapped in Lebanon. In concert with Reagan administration operatives, profits from Israeli stocks of US supplied missiles sold to Iran partially helped fund the Nicaraguan Contras after Congress outlawed US support.

  After Israeli influence over Iran ended, Israel’s US lobby AIPAC began working to precipitate a U.S.-Iran military confrontation in order to improve Israel’s strategic position. The most recent of these efforts included:
  –
  1. Lobbying to create the US Treasury Department’s “Office of Terrorism and Financial Intelligence” unit in the aftermath of 9/11 to wage US economic warfare against Iran. The unit has until recently been led by a string of Zionist ideologues. See “Treasury Sanctions Foreigners for Israel” Antiwar.com, August 30, 2018.
  –
  2. Stealing Department of Defense secrets in concert with convicted spy for Israel Col. Lawrence Franklin. AIPAC intended to channel the secrets to the Washington Post in 2004 to convince Americans that it was time for troops fighting in Iraq to pivot to Iran. Though the Pentagon source was convicted, the two AIPAC officials involved in espionage escaped justice after a series of judicial contortions.

  3. Demanding cyber-attacks on Iranian nuclear facilities under threat of Israeli military action, costing the US billions of dollars, unintentionally unleashing sophisticated cyber weapons across global computer networks.
