The International Jew manipulated the Great War into existence, that swept
Europe up. The reason for this was to destroy the old order of Europe and
manifest the situation for International Communist takeover . And leave them
holding the entire West in debt to their banks. This plays into the first part.
During the war however, something unexpected happened. In 1915 the German Kaiser
realized this war was not the quick push to victory as planned. And extended an
offer of Peace to England. To end the war with Germany withdrawing to the pre
1914 boundaries. He stated the war was destroying the best of the young
generation of Europe.
As Freedman who was a large player In Internationally Jewry, confessed. The
Jews in England then made a deal with the other half of the government they
would get their brethren in America. To pull America into the war in return for
Palestine as a Jewish state. The Gentile faction wanting to break Germany's
Empire and international economic rivalry. Which was the traditional English
policy in dealing with Continental European powers. Agreed.
Wilson the American President who by his own and Freedman's confession was
nothing but a tool of Jewish interested. [He passed the Fed act]. Just after
getting elected on a policy of noninterventionism in the war in Europe. Had
the American government vote for war with Germany and their allies in Europe.
The whole time this was going on. Jewry was strengthening their Communist
movements in Europe. In 1917 the German Jewish elite secretly forged a
situation with their connections in Russia. To send a closed armoured train
carrying large sums of money for Communist aid and carrying a secret passenger.
The Jew, Lenin across the border into Russia. The rest is history.
During this time the Jews within Germany where doing the same they were in
Russia. Using the extreme conditions the war had forced on the population. To
exploit every theme and issue to generate a powerful Communist movement. They
were also spreading defeatist propaganda into the German society which made its
way to the front with the new recruits. The Jews made the deal in England
simply to keep the war going. They had no intention of wanting Germany to win.
With a strong German Empire. Communism would never succeed in Europe. The
control of Germany was the key to their victory on the large part of the
Continent.
There had been large Jewish manipulated ,Communist style uprisings in the German
Empire in the previous century. That had been crushed. The old order had also
crushed the Communist revolt of the Paris Commune. They needed them gone to
win.
As one Jew [Kapner] confessed:
http://groups.yahoo.com/group/JoSNewsletter/message/376
"The Jewish Lobby rules supreme in the realm of political control. Lobbies such
as AIPAC, ADL, and the American Jewish Congress (AJC), decide which candidates
will be elected. They do this by pouring millions of Jewish dollars into the
campaign coffers of Pro Israel politicians, and smearing, through their
connections in the Jewish-occupied media, their opponents.
Newly elected President, Barack Obama, had enormous amounts of money poured into
his campaign by an elite contingent of wealthy & influential Chicago based Jews
- so much so, that Obama now has an excess of $30 million from a $745 million
haul."
From here via they brought American into the Second World War:

Some of these Jews were directly responsible for plunging America into WWII by
deliberately alienating America from anti-Communist countries[non-Kosher] such
as Germany and Japan long before the outbreak of hostilities. These Jews also
pioneered the idea of Big Egalitarian Government in America; some of them were
later discovered to have been spies for the Soviet Union.

The American [my note Jewish power lobby] Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) is set to "mount a major blitz" in support of US President Barack Obama's resolution to take military action in Syria, the Washington-based Politico website quoted officials with the group as saying on Thursday.
The powerful pro-Israel lobby in Washington came out in support of the resolution in a statement issued earlier this week, but was expected to step-up its lobbying efforts, as the measure to attack Syria was thus far failing to muster a sufficient number of votes to pass in the House of Representatives, according to lawmakers.

Politico quoted officials as saying some 250 Jewish leaders planned to make the case to lawmakers next week that failure to act in the face of Syrian President Bashar Assad's use of chemical weapons would serve to embolden Iran in its pursuit of nuclear weapons.
AIPAC was expected to lobby "virtually every member of Congress," according to the report.
AIPAC has close ties to Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and Minority Whip John Cornyn, Republican leaders who have thus far withheld support for the Syria resolution, Politico reported.
Even after congressional hearings featuring Obama's secretaries of state and defense, a half dozen closed-door briefings and phone calls from Obama himself, it was too close to call on whether Congress will authorize military force.
First-term Democratic Senator Joe Manchin, who had been seen as a possible swing vote, dealt the president a setback when he announced on Thursday he would oppose the resolution to authorize military strikes.
"Given the case that has been presented to me, I believe that a military strike against Syria at this time is the wrong course of action," Manchin said.
Republican Representative Michael Grimm, who initially backed Obama's call last month for military strikes, withdrew his support on Thursday. "Unfortunately, the time to act was then and the moment to show our strength has passed," said Grimm, a Marine combat veteran.
If Obama fails to win congressional support, he would face two undesirable options. One would be to go ahead with military strikes anyway, which could provoke an angry showdown with Congress over their respective powers.
The other would be to do nothing, which White House officials privately acknowledge would damage the credibility of any future Obama ultimatum to other countries.
Twenty-four of the Senate's 100 members oppose or lean toward opposing authorizing military strikes, according to estimates by several news organizations, with an equal number favoring military action and roughly 50 undecided.
Every vote will count in the Senate, where a super-majority of 60 will likely be needed because of possible procedural hurdles for a final vote on approving military action.........
