Breaking News: What's Up with Putin Meeting Netanyahu So Frequently During the Past Few Months? - News Paper

Daniel in the Lion's Den

History repeats itself as an old saying goes.  In the geopolitical event I will be discussing this morning it looks like the Biblical tale of Daniel going into the Lion's Den is repeating itself as Russian President Vladimir Putin appears to be inserting himself into the more than half century conflict going on in the Middle East.  This is the conflict that began when the Then Empire, Great Britain, ceded the little nation of Palestine over to the Khazarian Jews who are originally from an area in Asia now known as Bulgaria.

Since these Khazarian Jews had no cultural affinity to the indigenous Palestinians, they've treated them like foreigners, interlopers in their own country.  They've rounded the Palestinians up and put them into walled-in reserves.  These reserves have since been constantly denied essentials, such as potable water and ability to trade with other nations for essential goods and services.  The United Nations has decreed that the open air concentration camp called Gaza is already unfit for human habitation and the hundreds of thousands of prisoners [Palestinians] imprisoned therein are being slowly genocided.

The world, particularly the United Kingdom and America, two nations who brought the situation about and allowed it to deteriorate by not exerting any pressure on Israel to negotiate a humane settlement to the issues, have stood by, wringing their hands and saying "Tut, tut" occasionally, like when Israeli planes fly over the prison grounds, dropping incendiary bombs on the unarmed civilian population...shooting fish in a barrel.

Enter Vladimir Putin.  President Putin is fresh from gaining respect and credibility in the Middle East region by stopping the latest Western effort to destroy a country...Syria...dead in its tracks.  He has built up trust in Iran, Syria and even Iraq....one of the US-destroyed countries. Now, it appears that he is about to take on the biggest challenge of his career.  He is about to try and untie the Gordian Knot that is the Israeli/Palestinian conflict.  In the past few months Putin has personally met with Netanyahu at least three times. Please read the following report from Tass regarding yet another meeting between the two leaders and I will have more comments to follow:

Putin, Netanyahu to discuss Israel-Palestine issue, Syrian conflict on July 11

MOSCOW, July 10. /TASS/. Russian President Vladimir Putin and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will hold a meeting on July 11 to discuss bilateral cooperation and global affairs, including the Israel-Palestine issue and the Syrian conflict, the Kremlin press service said in a statement.

"On July 11, Russian President Vladimir Putin will hold a meeting with Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu," the statement reads. "The parties are expected to discuss pressing cooperation issues and problems on the global agenda, including ways to resolve the Israel-Palestine issue and the Syrian conflict," the Kremlin press service added.

The Israeli prime minister is also expected to attend the 2018 FIFA World Cup semi-final match between England and Croatia set to be held on July 11.

Greencrow says:  The biggest question to be asked about these meetings is...what "bait" is Putin using to build up trust between himself and Netanyahu?  And what is the quid pro quo for that bait?  First, it's important to acknowledge that there's likely a lot we don't know about the state of affairs between Israel and Russia.  After all, we are dependent on the Mainstream Media, known to be chronic and relentless liars...for details about the dynamics between the two.

Given the dearth of factual, reliable information, I believe my hunches about what's going on are at least as valid as anyone else's. After all, both these men have more to do than meet about nothing.  So I'm going to speculate that the "bait" that Russia is offering is twofold.  He's offering some of Russia's state of the art defense systems...the S400 as an example...for Israel to set up to protect itself from its "enemies du jour" Iran and the like.  It has made so many enemies in the region that Israel has become pathologically paranoid.  Putin is playing to this pathology.  But I believe Putin is also offering a carrot in the form of huge tracts of land in Russia's vast Asian territories.  I read just yesterday where Russia has offered land to about 15,000 South African white farmers who are now feeling "uncomfortable" since the apartheid regime fell.  He may also be offering a share in the "silk road" oil/gas pipelines that are planned to be routed through Syria.  In return, it's obvious what needs to happen vis a vis the Palestinians.  They need to be freed from their concentration camp prisons and allowed equal status throughout their ancestral homeland.  A new state needs to be formed that is neither Israel nor Palestine.  For the sake of discussion, let's call it Judea.

Again, with Putin...negotiation is all about setting up a "win win" situation for all parties...making them offers they cannot logically refuse.  Unlike the United States leaders of the past...he does not plead with or cajole the parties...he offers firm upgrades to their present situation.  That's it.  Whatever Putin is offering Netanyahu, he certainly has his attention.

I will continue to watch this situation closely.  Should Netanyahu become more deeply engaged in negotiations for Middle East Peace...with Putin as the broker...watch for the reaction of the West.  Can we all spell apoplexy?
