Is it all because of Israel ???

Doesn't it seem like the so-called "war on terror" and its related spying on everyone has always been about and for Israel, and always will be?

As World War II came to a close, MI5 received a stream of intelligence reports warning that the Irgun and the Stern Gang were not just planning violence in the Mandate of Palestine, but were also plotting to launch attacks inside Britain. In April 1945 an urgent cable from MI5's outfit in the Middle East, SIME, warned that Victory in Europe (VE-Day) would be a D-Day for Jewish terrorists in the Middle East. Then, in the spring and summer of 1946, coinciding with a sharp escalation of anti-British violence in Palestine, MI5 received apparently reliable reports from SIME that the Irgun and the Stern Gang were planning to send five terrorist "cells" to London, "to work on IRA lines." To use their own words, the terrorists intended to "beat the dog in his own kennel." The SIME reports were derived from the interrogation of captured Irgun and Stern Gang fighters, from local police agents in Palestine, and from liaisons with official Zionist political groups like the Jewish Agency. They stated that among the targets for assassination were Britain's foreign secretary, Ernest Bevin, who was regarded as the main obstacle to the establishment of a Jewish state in the Middle East, and the prime minister himself. MI5's new director-general, Sir Percy Sillitoe, was so alarmed that in August 1946 he personally briefed the prime minister on the situation, warning him that an assassination campaign in Britain had to be considered a real possibility, and that his own name was known to be on a Stern Gang hit list.

I can see what's in it for them, but exactly what are WE getting out of this?

If the Israelis were willing to murder Britain's foreign secretary, were they also willing to murder Americans who got in their way?

Did JFK get in their way? I read somewhere that he was going to prevent them from developing nuclear weapons. Some think Israel was behind the JFK assassination for that very reason:

And why, of all possible motivations, did Sirhan Sirhan allegedly decide to murder RFK because of Israel? Does that make ANY sense at all?

"My only connection with Robert Kennedy was his sole support of Israel and his deliberate attempt to send those 50 bombers to Israel to obviously do harm to the Palestinians."

By the way, I have read Piper's book Final Judgment. I would not call it "poorly written", but I was not excited about its style or content, either. The author lists a myriad of questionable connections between various people and organizations who may have had motive(s) to kill JFK, but he provides no smoking gun(s). On the other hand, if the US government has been running interference for the Israelis on this (as it does for everything else), I expect that no smoking gun will ever be found.

I'll add this tantalizing comparison to the mix:

• On 9/11/01, a crew of "Israeli movers" apparently was prepositioned to film what they later described as a terrorist attack on the WTC before anyone else in the US knew it was a terrorist attack.
• On 11/22/63, Abraham Zapruder was prepositioned to film the murder of JFK in Dealey Plaza (or so we're told). Did he also know in advance what was going to happen that day?
