32. The Wurmsers
Edited on Fri Dec-16-05 10:04 AM by annces8
These people tie together Israel, White House, and intelligence on the Middle East. So it would seem Cheney used Israel ties to further plans to for getting ownership of middle east oil. Meyrav Wurmser works at Jerusalem Post, formerly owned by Conrad Black, who is now under investigation by Fitzpatrick.



David Wurmser, Dick Cheney's Middle East adviser, is a neocon ideologue who has participated in several key reports outlining the neoconservative agenda in the Middle East.

Meyrav Wurmser, an opponent of the Oslo peace accords and a central neoconservative figure, is a senior fellow at the right-wing Hudson Institute and a columnist for the Conrad Black-owned Jerusalem Post.

In 1996 David Wurmser and Meyrav Wurmser, helped write a report for Israel's Likud party that urged Israel to break off then-ongoing peace initiatives. The report, which was titled "A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm" and was published by the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies (an Israeli- and DC-based think tank) advised then-Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu "to work closely with Turkey and Jordan to contain, destabilize, and roll-back" regional threats, help overthrow Saddam Hussein, and strike "Syrian military targets in Lebanon" and possibly in Syria proper. Coauthors of the report included Richard Perle, David Wurmser, and Douglas Feith.
