[Ed’s note: these are not new allegations, see ‘October Surprise‘, a chronology of events compiled by me that documents the fact that Israel acted as the ‘go-between’ for the US, selling US-supplied weapons to Israel that Israel then sold to Iran. WB]
Comment by Michael Carmichael
New documents just released via declassification reveal Israel’s role in the Iran-Contra Affair that rocked the Reagan administration in the 1980s.

War: The Wrong Jobs Program
More than 40 years ago, long before anyone had ever heard of Barack Obama, before the collapse of Bear Stearns, and before contemporary debates about bailouts and debt ceilings, two authors, Paul Baran and Paul Sweezy, considered a tricky problem. In times of downturn, the government must spend to stimulate the economy. Yet getting the political establishment to agree on one particular program of spending seemed nearly impossible.
Baran and Sweezy phrased the conundrum as a question: “On what could the government spend enough to keep the system from sinking into the mire of stagnation?”

Will there be another Arab Spring in 2061?
Asia Times Online Today at 11:00
Sixty-two years after Cairo tried to snuff out the Muslim Brotherhood with a targeted assassination, the movement stands on the threshold of power in Egypt, while its brand of political Islam is rising throughout the Arab World. The Brotherhood of today seems more aware of the need to be democratic, but it faces the same temptations that corrupted and eventually tore down Arab nationalism. – Sami Moubayed (Nov 28, ’11)
