National Summit 2014 “1. How Does the Israel Lobby Influence Congress?”

National Summit to Reassess the U.S. – Israel Special Relationship
National Press Club, Washington, DC, March 7, 2014

Paul Findley - Should the Executive outmaneuver Congress to save Palestine and Israel?

Janet McMahon - The Israel lobby network and coordinated PACs that finance U.S. elections.

Cynthia McKinney - In the Israel lobby's cross-hairs.
Delinda Hanley - U.S. aid to Israel in numbers.

Panel 1 - Questions and Answers.
A historic non-partisan symposium in which top diplomatic, military, intelligence, Congressional, academic, and other experts discussed the impact on American of U.S. support for Israel.

Israel is often considered a key ally for the United States. More U.S. tax money has been given to Israel than to any other nation – currently over $8 million per day. The U.S. provides Israel trading advantages, loan guarantees, weaponry, technology, and other perks. At the same time, the U.S. has a long record of vetoing Security Council resolutions regarding Israel.

Israel has been claiming to be the victim, while spying on, stealing nukes from and attacking America and lobbying Congress to give them huge handouts primarily used to cage and kill the actual Semites - the Palestinians! Must viewing for every Truther.

•If Americans Knew 2007 "The Easiest Targets"

Five women – Palestinian, American, Muslim, Christian, and Jewish – tell stories of humiliation and harassment by Israeli border guards and airport security officials. Israeli officials have been regularly strip-searching children for decades, some of them American citizens.

While organizations that focus on Israel-Palestine have long been aware that Israeli border officials regularly strip-search men and women, If Americans Knew appears to be the first organization that has specifically investigated the situation. In the course of its investigation on searches of women, If Americans Knew was astonished to learn that Israeli officials have also been strip-searching girls as young as seven and below.

According to interviews with women in the United States, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, Israeli border officials periodically force Christian and Muslim females of all ages to remove their clothing and submit to searches. In some cases the children are then “felt” by Israeli officials.

The strip searches appear to be illegal under numerous statutes. The Geneva Conventions, to which Israel is a signatory, prohibit: “Outrages upon personal dignity, in particular humiliating and degrading treatment” and specifically emphasize: “Women shall be especially protected against any attack on their honor...” Article 2 of the Convention on the Rights of the Child states: "No child shall be subjected to arbitrary or unlawful interference with his or her privacy..."

Since American taxpayers give Israel over $8 million per day, the Council for the National Interest, a Washington DC-based lobbying organization, is organizing a campaign to call on Congress to demand that Israel end these policies.

•If Americans Knew 2007 “Captured Prisoners” and “The Easiest Targets”

“Captured Prisoners”
Since the beginning of the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories in 1967, over 650,000 Palestinians have been detained by Israel. As the majority of those detained are male, the number of Palestinians detained forms approximately 40% of the total male Palestinian population in the Occupied Palestinian Territories (OPT).

Administrative detention, which is arrest without charge or trial, has been used as a form of collective punishment by the Israeli military against Palestinians, and is illegal in this form under international law.

Under military regulations in force in the OPT, a child over the age of 16 is considered an adult, contrary to the defined age of a child as under 18 in the Convention of the Rights of the Child, to which Israel is a signatory. In practice, Palestinian children may be charged and sentenced in military courts beginning at the age of 12.

“The Easiest Targets”
The Israeli Policy Of Strip Searching Women And Children
According to interviews with women in the United States, Israel, the West Bank and Gaza, Israeli border officials periodically force Christian and Muslim females of all ages to remove their clothing and submit to searches. In some cases the children are then "felt" by Israeli officials.

In the course of its investigation on searches of women, If Americans Knew was astonished to learn that Israeli officials have also been strip-searching girls as young as seven and below.
