'Nazism inspires anti-Iran war rhetoric'
Mon Jan 9, 2012

A senior US professor says the “false charges” America has fabricated regarding Iran's nuclear program correspond closely to the modus operandi of the Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels.

The fallacious allegations and threats that US neoconservatives and hard-line Zionists have leveled against Tehran are being repeated and proliferated, in collusion with American media, with such intensity to make them sound true, Lawrence Davidson, author and history professor, wrote on consortiumnews.com.

He was referring to the famous Goebbels saying that “If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will usually come to believe it.”

Goebbels also believed “it is vitally important for the state to use all its powers to repress … the truth [which is] the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension the truth is the greatest enemy of the state.”

Lawrence Davidson cited the example of Washington's disregard for the National Intelligence Estimates' verdicts on Iran's nuclear program as illustrative evidence that Goebbels' propositions are being immaculately emulated by the US in its measures to suppress all proof against their anti-Iran accusations.

In two separate reports in 2007 and 2011, the US National Intelligence Estimates had solidly stated that there is no conclusive evidence that there was a military aspect to Iran's nuclear program.

“Simultaneously, they (US) bring forward untrustworthy testimony of Iranian expatriates and known liars that support their claims (this does get media coverage),” Davidson said.

Washington and Tel Aviv have repeatedly threatened Tehran with the "option" of a military strike, based on the allegation that Iran's nuclear work may consist of a covert military aspect.

Iran has categorically refuted the allegations, saying that as a signatory to the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty and a member of the International Atomic Energy Agency, it has the right to develop and acquire nuclear technology for peaceful purposes.

On December 26, Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey said the US military is ready to launch a military strike against Iran, if occasion necessitates.

"We are examining a range of options. I'm satisfied that the options that we are developing are evolving to a point that they would be executable if necessary," Dempsey said.

Dempsey's warmongering tirades came hot on the heels of the equally aggressive remarks by US Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta that "no options were off the table" regarding Iran's nuclear program.

With the upcoming US presidential election, the Republican candidates have similarly heightened the anti-Iran rhetoric, in an apparent bid to win Zionist votes.

While Mitt Romney declared that, “the greatest threat that Israel faces, and frankly the greatest threat the world faces, is a nuclear Iran,” Newt Gingrich asserted, “He is ready to “collaborate with the Israelis on a conventional campaign” against Iran.”

And despite Iran's opening of its nuclear facilities to regular visits by the international inspectors, Rick Santorum has claimed that if he is elected president, he “would be saying to the Iranians, you either open those facilities, begin to dismantle them and make them available to inspectors or we will degrade those facilities through air strikes.”

Meanwhile, Israeli officials have also recently stepped up their war rhetoric against Iran.

On November 21, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned the "time has come" to deal with Iran. Israeli President Shimon Peres also threatened on November 6 that an attack against Iran is becoming "more and more likely."

“And things will stay that way until we address our main need - we need to find a constitutionally safe way to protect ourselves from our own lies ,” US professor Davidson concluded.
