It has become clear that Israel played a major role in the battle for Fallujah,
despite the American concern to conceal this fact. What news leaked of officers,
soldiers, and even rabbis of dual citizenships that took part in the battles,
some of which were killed by the resistance’s bullets, is only the tip
of the iceberg. The killing of an Israeli officer in Fallujah exposed the existence
of a large number officers, snipers, and paratroopers in Iraq. Based on Israeli
press statistics, Israel currently has no fewer than 1,000 officers and soldiers
scattered around the American units working in Iraq. In addition, 37 rabbis
are operating within the American troops, which leads to believe that the real
number is greater; since Ha’aretz admitted that others are concealing
their Jewish identities, which makes them self-driven Israeli citizens. Currently,
there is a recruitment campaign coinciding with the escalation of the operations
in Iraq, which seeks to send further assistance there. Amongst these campaigns
is the incitement of Rabbi Irving Elson in his latest speech given in New York
to allocate further "Fighting Rabbis" and encourage them to enlist
in the American forces, in addition to another rabbi’s advisory stating
that those killed in Fallujah are "martyrs."
America needs the Israelis’ experience in gang wars in order to manage
the battles in the Iraqi cities; given that two generations of its armed forces
lack this experience since the end of the Vietnam War. However, the Israeli
role is neither technical nor complementary to the American plan. Rather, it
is part of the vision established by its military and political leadership prior
to the launching of the war, which aims at annulling any regional role for Iraq
and eliminating any threat it might cause to its future. The Israeli plan became
clear due to various headlines, most prominent of which is dispatching Mossad
operatives to establish offices and networks in the north, south, eliminate
the Iraqi scientists and intensify the real estate purchase of property and
land in the north; specifically in Arbil, Kirkuk and Mosul. This comes as a
completion of the previous project, launched ten years prior to the fall of
Baghdad, through Jewish Turks.
Israel encourages the Kurdish leaderships to decentralize from Baghdad in administering
their regions but at the same time, it aims at having the Kurdish parties play
a pivotal role in the post-war Iraq due to the historical relations that it
had established with the Kurds. More likely, Israel has advanced in developing
the plan announced previously by the minister of infrastructure Joseph Paritzky
that aims at laying oil pipelines from Iraq to Israel passing through Jordan;
since a Turkish security report recently published by Jumhuriyet confirmed Israel’s
attempts to activate the line towards Haifa as soon as possible. Based on this
vision, the Israelis believe that the American forces are incapable of imposing
security and stability in Iraq. This obliged the Israelis to develop their own
channels with the local powers beginning at the fulcrum point in the north and
advancing in the implementation plan, which they had prepared prior to the fall
of the former regime. However, they are now avoiding a confrontation with Turkey,
which is worried from their expansion in the north.
In this course, Israel incites the Iraqi Jews to the forefront in order to
head the bridge of organizing the relations with the new government and specifically
intensify the trade initiatives with Iraq through Jordan. It also wants it to
have a word in Iraq’s destiny through the indirect influence at the Sharm
El-Sheikh summit, which infuriated both Syria and Turkey. The vast and unexpected
expansion of the Israeli role in various fields in Iraq, confirms that Israel
is the major beneficiary in the continuity of the war, same as it is the first
beneficiary from the American escalation with Iran regarding its nuclear file.
Iraq is not Russia, and Iran is not China, hence they cause no threat to the
U.S., nevertheless, they both represent a threat to the Hebrew state. In conclusion,
it is possible to say that the Likudniks, who control decision-making posts
in America, are using Bush’s campaign against terrorism as a cover-up
to accomplish Israel’s objectives in Iraq. Hence, the purpose of the Fallujah
battle is to break the backbone of the resistance and pave the way for the completion
of the Israeli plan.
