Career

At ITN’s News At Ten and the BBC’s Panorama programme, Hart covered wars and conflicts all over the world. In 1984 he wrote his first book: "Arafat, Terrorist or Peacemaker?" He went on to play a part in Middle Eastern diplomacy.

Middle East

Hart was involved with covert diplomacy attempting to bring a resolution to the conflict. U.S. President Jimmy Carter had been prevented by Prime Minister Menachem Begin from involving the Palestine Liberation Organisation in the peace process, an opening made possible because Arafat had signalled, secretly and seriously, that he was ready to make peace with an Israel inside more or less its pre-1967 borders.

Carter believed that institutions such as the Israel lobby would suffocate open diplomacy. An initiative was funded by a small number of wealthy British Jews led by Lord Marcus Sieff (the Chairman of Marks & Spencer) with the approval of Lord Victor Rothschild. Hart was proposed as the linkman to undertake an unofficial, covert diplomatic mission to get an exploratory dialogue going between Yasser Arafat and Shimon Peres. Enough progress was made to get Peres and Arafat into public dialogue in the event of Peres winning the 1981 election and denying Begin a second term. However, against all expectations, he did not.

A decade later, this initiative was the basis for the Oslo Accords and might have delivered an agreement were it not that Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin was assassinated by a right wing Israeli of the kind Hart would call a "gut-Zionist".

Subsequent events have made Hart a sharp critic of Zionism and the State of Israel, writing in 2007 that:

The colonial enterprise that Zionism is has corrupted everything it touched, beginning with the United Nations and including the mainstream media, what passes for democracy in the Western world (America especially) and Judaism itself.

In an article published on the Iranian run Press TV, Hart described Zionists as “The New Nazis” and argued that “Europeans and Americans could have stopped the original Nazis and prevented the extermination of six million Jews. If Europeans and Americans do not stop the New Nazis, it is likely that their end game will be the extermination of millions of Palestinians.”

In a letter to British Conservative Party leader David Cameron in August 2007, Hart wrote that "the Zionist state, which came into being as a consequence of Zionism "terrorism" and ethnic cleansing, had no right to exist and, more to the point, could have no right to exist unless ... it was recognised and legitimised by those who were dispossessed of their land and their rights during the creation of the Zionist state. In international law only the Palestinians could give Israel the legitimacy it craved. And that legitimacy was the only thing the Zionists could not and cannot take from the Palestinians by force." He also stated that the "Jews who went to Palestine in answer to Zionism’s call had no biological connection to the ancient Hebrews. The incoming Zionist Jews were mainly foreign nationals of many lands... The notion that there are two entire peoples with an equally valid claim to the same land is an historical nonsense." Hart has also suggested that the United States is in danger of an Israeli nuclear strike with a stolen nuclear weapon to to trigger a war with Iran and "finish the ethnic cleansing of Palestine" under cover of war, which Hart claims that Israel is planning to do "as soon as the opportunity presents itself."

In April 2010, in his book entitled "Zionism: The Real Enemy of the Jews", Hart wrote that "the Balfour Declaration is in the fact that it was an expression of both the willingness of a British government to use Jews for imperial purposes and the willingness of Zionist Jews to be used. He also wrote that "Zionism’s assertion that Israel was given its birth certificate and thus legitimacy by the UN General Assembly partition resolution of 29 November 1947 is pure propaganda nonsense" and that "Israel, which came into being mainly as a consequence of Zionist "terrorism" and pre-planned ethnic cleansing, had no right to exist and, more to the point, could have no right to exist" without the consent of the Palestinians, which they have never given.

In February 2011, Hart called for the impeachment of American President Barack Obama. Hart argued that Obama's decision to veto the Security Council resolution condemning Israeli settlement activities in the West Bank and demanding that Israel "immediately and completely cease" all such activities. Hart argued "a president who allows a lobby group to put the interests of a foreign power above those of the country of which they are citizens, and who by doing so puts his fellow citizens more in harm's way than they otherwise would be, is guilty of treason." Hart also wrote that "the only thing to which the Obama administration has been deeply committed is not provoking the wrath of the Zionist lobby and its stooges in Congress and the mainstream media."

September 11 Attacks

In May 2010, Hart stated on various media, including the Kevin Barrett Show, that consultants close one the world’s most prominent construction companies assured him that “The twin towers were brought down by a controlled ground explosion, not the planes.” Hart also speculated that the planes had been fitted with transponders and that Israeli Mossad agents guided them into the towers. Regarding the purpose of the 9/11 attacks, Hart stated that: “My guess is that at an early point they said to the bad guys in the CIA – hey this operation’s running what do we do, and the zionists and the neo-cons said let’s use it.” Hart also stated that the Israeli operation which became 9/11 was likely aided by certain corrupt American leaders.

In another interview, Hart stated that "In my analysis there’s enough evidence – visual, technical and scientific, and from eye-witnesses including fire fighters – to invite the conclusion that the Twin Towers, like Building Seven, were pre-wired for controlled demolition with nanothermite, the highest-tech military explosive."
