The Truth About US Troops “Sent to Iraq”

 Blimey this seems to be reasonable article. But my view, hmmm rather silly really...is this.

ISIS was attacking Syrian government and the NATO and the rest by populous demand could to support the Sunnis. The armament supply dried out for them. If they let ISIS take over the Sunni areas in North Iraq where there is lot of AMerican made armament to loot and use against the Syrians. am i going looney?

Mother Agnes

Mother Agnes Mariam of the Cross is a Carmelite nun and mother superior of the Monastery of James the Mutilated in Qara, Syria, which has a community of three monks and twelve nuns. Born in Lebanon in a refugee camp 61 years ago, she is Palestinian on her father’s side and has worked in Syria for about 20 years. She is the spokesperson for the Catholic Information Center in Beirut, where the Musalaha Initiative also has its office. Mother Agnes became a nun at 19, after several years in the late 1960s as a self-styled “hippie,” traveling to Europe, India and Tibet. Unlike others with an equally public profile, Mother Agnes has no Wikipedia page.

This is taken from  an article  in global research website.

I do not live in Syria. She lives there and she knows more about the Syrian civil war than even the UN. media has done a lot of harm to the Syrian uprising. It started as a peaceful demonstration against the assad's government. now listen to Mother Agnes talking about it here:

Are we rresponsible for this? As a matter of fact we are. you me and the rest of this world.

Now you can have a look at this documentation by her:

I do hope you will be part of making peace in Syria for the troubled Syrian by outside agents who are warring in syria for other purposes. As Mother Agnes explains Assad government is a repressing one. The evolution to more democratic way should come from within.

Syria Chemical attacks

I blogged about this in my blog in:

here

There is more to it now. It has been established with more evidence that the attacks carried out by rebel fighters in Eastern Ghouta, and it is  alleged that Saudi Intelligence Chief, Prince Bandar Bin Sultan, had supplied extremist elements in the  region with chemical weapons.

Well you and me will find why all these intelligence agencies are trying to bury this information by attacking the media and the journalists. Is there more to this incidence than what was already being reported.

Home grown terrorism in US

Former CENTCOM Commander, General Tommy Franks, who led the invasion of Iraq in 2003, had outlined a scenario of what he described as “a massive casualty producing event” on American soil, (a Second 9/11) . Implied in General Franks statement was the notion and belief that civilian deaths were necessary to raise awareness and muster public support for the “global war on terrorism”.

“[A] terrorist, massive, casualty-producing event [will occur] somewhere in the Western world – it may be in the United States of America – that causes our population to question our own Constitution and to begin to militarize our country in order to avoid a repeat of another mass, casualty-producing event.” (General Tommy Franks Interview, Cigar Aficionado, December 2003, emphasis added)

While the Boston bombings are of an entirely different nature to the “catastrophic event” alluded to by General Tommy Franks, the administration appears, nonetheless, to be committed to the logic of “militarizing our country” as a means to “protecting democracy.”
The Boston events are already being used to galvanize public support for an extended domestic based counter-terrorism apparatus. The latter would be implemented alongside extrajudicial assassinations against so-called “homegrown self radicalized terrorists”:

Oil, Oil More Oil

There seems to a wee plan by Iraq, Syria and Iran, of a oil pipeline called Pipelineistan. The problem was that was finaced by ther Russian oil company Gazprom

In late 2010, his government signed a memorandum of understanding with Iraq for the construction of two oil and one gas pipeline to carry gas and oil from Iraq’s Akkas and Kirkuk fields, respectively, to the Syrian port of Banias on the Mediterranean Sea. In July 2011 Iranian officials announced a $10 billion gas pipeline deal between Syria, Iraq and Iran that would transport gas from Iran’s South Pars gas field, the world’s biggest, through Iraq to Syria. Also planned was an extension of the AGP from Aleppo, in Syria, to the southern Turkish city of Kilis that could later link to the proposed Nabucco pipeline linking Turkey to Europe, if that pipeline ever materializes.

This is from OpernOil article.

As long as Russia is with Syria the sanctions against Syria is very difficult to enforce. There are off shore bank who put the proverbial spanner in the works. The Wall street journal has been investigating this and you might like to read it.

According to the CIA FactBook the oil production in Syria is 401,000 bbl/day (2010 est.).

In the world Syria comes 32nd in the production chart.

The oil consumption of the country is 292,000 bbl/day (2010 est.). There is barely enough to sell. What other reasons than getting oil is there. Unless of course you find that ther best way to get at the enemy is diviode them. Then get a puppet for a few years and everything goes back to normalities.

Proved reserves of oil is 2.5 billion bbl (1 January 2011 est.) and comes 32nd in the world ranking.

More War Crimes, Now In Syria

I already pointed out that Libyan al Qaeda members are in Turkey, here. And a few other notable blood thirsty character from Libya has moved to Syrian border. That you can read here.

So when I heard about the killing of Syrian officials by the 'Free Syrian Army' last week I am not surprised, but the war mongering Foreign Secretary of not so great Britain and vice president of US are very happy indeed. Champoo time. Non of the Western media put this one in the TV programs of news. But the peace making Russians did. Here is the clip.

I am still shaking after seeing this video for the third time. I live in a peaceful country and I think most of the readers as well. Why do our blood thirsty politicians support these criminals.

This article ends with this.

Such extra-judicial killings might be a sign of things to come if the 17-month uprising against President Bashar AL-Assad spins further out of control.

Asia Times Online correspondent Pepe Escobar told RT that such massacres occur “all the time” in today's Syria.  He believes, however, that summary executions of this nature will push minorities to fight against the rebels.

“I received this video from a source in Arabic, and then I asked for a translation. This is a very important clan in Northern Aleppo.  Some of them were executed in cold blood, this is what this two and a half minute video shows. This is an extended clan. They have like 20,000 brothers, sisters and extended family in this tribal clan,” Escobar said.

“So this means that all of these people, instead of being recruited to the opposition, now they will fight the opposition because they are being executed in cold blood. This explains, among other things, why Christians all over Syria are taking up arms to defend themselves. Because they know if there is a post-Assad controlled [government] by Sunni hardcore elements, including Salafi Jihadists, they are going to be unprotected minorities. At the moment they are protected minorities under the Assad regime," he continued.

Expert Advice From Brookings Inc

This is called "Saving Syria: Assessing Options for Regime Change" by Daniel Byman, Michael
Doran, Kenneth Pollack, and Salman Shaikh.

The article starts with the following:

Syria is trapped on a crumbling precipice, and how ever it might fall will entail significant risks for the United States and for the Syrian people.

Why I wonder these boffins think that anyone outside US is a blloody terrorist. Specially the muslims. I know Assad is no angel, but the intel systems in the West is sophisticated enough to see that their borders and within are safe. Ach Don't talk about Sept 11th etc. That was Bush Cheyney 'Pearl Harbour' episode. 50 or years later you will find out, if I am lucky I might as well about what really happened to Twin Towers.

This memo lays out six options for the United States to consider to achieve Asad’s overthrow, should it choose to do so:

1. Removing the regime via diplomacy;
2. Coercing the regime via sanctions and diplomatic isolation;
3. Arming the Syrian opposition to overthrow the regime;
4. Engaging in a Libya-like air campaign to help an opposition army gain victory;
5. Invading Syria with U.S.-led forces and toppling the regime directly; and
6. Participating in a multilateral, NATO-led effort to oust Asad and rebuild Syria.

Yeah I like you to visit this website to read it all.


Now we go back 55 years ago in 1957 to see what British Prime minister Hon H Macmillan and President D Eisonhower planned an attack on Syria. Historians have known that there was a plan but there were no proper documents describing them. You see, Duncan Sandys, Mr Macmillan's defence secretary, kept notes, and they were discovered, may be after 50 year secrecy law-time has passed by, Matthew Jones, a reader in international history at Royal Holloway, University of London.

Part of the "preferred plan" reads: "In order to facilitate the action of liberative forces, reduce the capabilities of the Syrian regime to organise and direct its military actions, to hold losses and destruction to a minimum, and to bring about desired results in the shortest possible time, a special effort should be made to eliminate certain key individuals. Their removal should be accomplished early in the course of the uprising and intervention and in the light of circumstances existing at the time."

The document, approved by London and Washington, named three men: Abd al-Hamid Sarraj, head of Syrian military intelligence; Afif al-Bizri, chief of the Syrian general staff; and Khalid Bakdash, leader of the Syrian Communist party.

 Well even a ten year old can see the similatrities init? Hmmm I wonder how many ten year old's read this blog. LOL. This historical article was pointed by Global Research, but the real article was printed in Guardian news paper during the Iraq war.

More About Syria

Is this the best Zionist move since they got the Palestine. I always wondered why Turkey joined in the wrath agaionst Syria. now I seen the light. I will let you know the secret but read this for a bit.

Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoglu visited the disputed kurdish area in north Iraq. wonder why as turkey has got problems of their own with PKK. Oil....more of the black stuff. Turkey wants to sign oil contracts with Kurdish Regional Government. This area borders with Iran to the east, Turkey to the Northh and Syria to the West. This is becoming more clear now.

According to the article this was written by Hurriyet Daily News columnist Murat Yetkin on the 7th Aug:

Because Iraq [is] at risk of falling apart. Massoud Barzani, the leader of the Kurdistan Regional Government (KRG) in the north of the country, which borders Turkey, has started to sign oil and gas deals with energy giants despite the objection of Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki in Baghdad, who refuses to approve a hydrocarbons law to regulate the sharing of oil and gas income. The energy giants have an interest in supplying more oil and gas that is not controlled or is less controlled by Russia and Iran to Western markets; Turkey provides an option under NATO protection for both Iraqi Kurdish and Azeri resources to be transferred further west. The presence of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers’ Party (PKK) in the KRG region and its armed campaign is, of course, a pain in the neck and a big obstacle to greater cooperation..

Further he said this:

There are already political and economic actors trying to push Turkey to claim some energy-rich parts of Iraq and Syria, which would mean a regime change such as a federated Turkey, with Kurdish and possibly Arabic members,” which, he conceded, “could drag the whole region into a chain reaction of wars.

Allright thanks for reading this. If you want to read the whole, which is very educational go here please .

What The People Said About Syria (added)

These articles I site here are from the Global Research E-newsletter and others. So I am going back to November of last year (2011).

Yes I remember the "Arab Spring"  concocted by the media and I was really interested in this. Conspiracy theories were rampant those days and it was very difficult to decipher the facts from the rest of the garbage. So I collected some articles in my Gmail account. This article starts like this:

The name "Arab Spring" is a catch phrase concocted in distant offices in Washington, London, Paris, and Brussels by individuals and groups who, other than having some superficial knowledge of the region, know very little about the Arabs. What is unfolding amongst the Arab peoples is naturally a mixed package. Insurgency is part of this package as is opportunism. Where there is revolution, there is always counter-revolution.

The upheavals in the Arab World are not an Arab "awakening" either; such a term implies that the Arabs have always been sleeping while dictatorship and injustice has been surrounding them. In reality the Arab World, which is part of the broader Turko-Arabo-Iranic World, has been filled with frequent revolts that have been put down by the Arab dictators in coordination with countries like the United States, Britain, and France. It has been the interference of these powers that has always acted as a counter-balance to democracy and it will continue to do so.

Before I read this I have seen some articles about the "21st century US of A".  But them were just books. If I believed all of them I will still be believing that atom is  the smallest particle in universe. The teachers never said, that, this information is only at the present moment as we cannot see inside the atom. Damn here I go off track. Do forgive me. to be more enlightened read the rest here.

In Oct 2011 I read an article about what happened in the past. How US, UK and Europe manhandled Latin America to submission. Latin America became enslaved in policies of US, UK and  Europian countries and you and me know what happened. Countries like Venezuela ultimately got rid of the terrorists like World Bank etc. 

The image of Latin America portrayed by the mass media and held by the educated public is a region of frequent coups, periodical revolutions, perpetual military dictatorships, alternating boom and bust economies and an ever-present International Monetary Fund (IMF) dictating economic policy.

In contrast the same opinion makers plus their academic counterparts project images of the United States and the European Union as stable societies, with steady economic growth, incremental expansion of social welfare programs, resolving issues via consensual compromises and practicing sound fiscal policies.

In recent times, the better part of the current decade, these images have taken on the character of ideological dogmas – they no longer correspond to reality. In fact a good argument can be made that the roles have been reversed: the US and EU are in perpetual crises and Latin America, at least most of the major countries, have experienced stability and growth which is the envy (or should be) of Washington pundits and financial commentators. This ‘role reversal’ has been recognized by many US, EU and Asian investors and multinationals, even as respectable journalistic hacks for the Financial Times, NY Times and Wall Street Journal still write about vulnerabilities, imbalances and other weaknesses while grudgingly acknowledging the dynamic growth of the region.

Progressive opinion is equally at fault, focusing on the ‘advances’ of the left regimes but overlooking the underlying dynamics affecting most of the region and thus losing sight of the new points of conflict and contention.

We will proceed to outline the contrasting realities between the crises ridden “North” (US/EU) and the sustained growth of the “South” (South America). The analysis will raise questions of whether the South American experience is transferable to the North and what ‘structural adjustments' would be necessary to pull the US and EU out of the downward spiral of stagnation and violent conflicts which have characterized these regions for the better part of the past decade.

This is a very nicely, unbiasely research gem. please go here to get the best of it. I will add on the rest as I get time.(Cor Blimey said me donkey to the wise man...I managed to get the dxxxxx "Quote" to work salute)

I don't know how much this story has anything to do with the war. But this happened just after the US elections and Obaba went to turkey and addressed the parliament in Turkey. This is reported from Jerusalam, and could be a bit of mud flingimg. Do not forget to see the words like 'allegedly' is thrown in for good measure.

A Syrian national was arrested in connection with a plot to assassinate President Obama during a key speech he is set to deliver tomorrow, a Saudi newspaper claimed today.

      

The newspaper, al-Watan, reported Turkish security services arrested a Turkish resident of Syrian origins Friday who confessed to a plot to stab the U.S. president with a knife during his speech tomorrow to the U.N.'s Alliance of Civilizations summit in Istanbul. The man allegedly told  interrogators he was working with at least three other people to execute his assassination attempt.

Mahdi al-Harati of Tripoli Brigade

On 11 October 2011, al-Harati resigned as deputy head of the Tripoli Military Council, amid tensions over security on the capital. According to Irish Times, while al-Harati's associates in Tripoli assure that the resignation was for "personal reasons", a senior NTC official quoted by CNN said that the resignation was because "differences with the National Transitional Council on the planning of the security of Tripoli". Fathi al-Wersali, member of the Tripoli Military Council, stated that al-Harati would continue as commander of the Tripoli brigade

Claims Wikipedia about Mahdi al-Harati. Hmmm what the hell is he doing in Turkey? Is he helping the free Syria people?
