War Without Mercy in Syria

Pedro Fuentes | 14.08.2012 19:03 | Anti-militarism | Globalisation | Terror War | Cambridge

If wars had labels, Syria's conflict would be called Made in America. Paul Wolfowitz and other Project for the New American Century  http://www.newamericancentury.org/ (PNAC) ideologues planned it years ago. They also targeted half a dozen or more other countries. PNAC's Statement of Principles called for "shap(ing) a new century favorable to American principles and interests." Doing so it said requires:


"increase(ing) defense spending significantly;" ... "challeng(ing) regimes hostile to our interests and values;" and "accept(ing) responsibility for American's unique role in preserving and extending an international order friendly to our security, our prosperity, and our principles."

PNAC effectively declared war. Independent nations were targeted. Implementing policy required a "catastrophic and catalyzing event - like a new Pearl Harbor."

False flags provide pretexts for militarism, wars, occupations, domestic repression, national security state extremism, and other policies antithetical to free and open societies. PNAC members got what they wanted.

They comprise a rogues gallery of hardcore neocon extremists. Charter members included Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, William Kristol, Jeb Bush, and others.

In 2009, PNAC reinvented itself as the Foreign Policy Initiative  http://www.foreignpolicyi.org/ (FPI). Policies remain unchanged. Regime change in Syria is prioritized. Direct intervention is urged. .......... M O R E ... by Stephen Lendman ..........  http://sjlendman.blogspot.de/

9/11 was no false flag

The 9/11 terrorist attacks were no false flag, see this website which thoroughly debunks every popular 9/11 conspiracy theory:  http://www.debunking911.com And this video about WTC building 7 explaining how it collapsed:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_kSq663m0G8

Yes but......

..was it allowed to happen , or even encouraged?

So many invasions of countries have come on the back of this attack , that any reasonable person may wonder .

Its obvious who has benefitted from the attacks , and must have been obvious to the perpetrators of the attacks beforehand ( whoever they were ? )

I doubt very much if there were a God that he would bless America.

The last century and this they've slaughtered 10's of millions of people , and still they're the beacon of freedom.

Very Clever.

Realist needs to do research

No good reason exists for anyone to believe the official story on 911.

Realist clearly knows little about the subject he talks about.

Only one person, Zacarias Moussaoui, has been through some kind of legal process to be found guilty of being in the non-existent second wave of attacks. This person pleaded guilty after he was bound in court with equipment that would give him an electric shock if he spoke out. He was declared mad. He, though, did say before his trial that he wanted to speak to Congress to tell them that he and other hijackers were under constant FBI surveillance and the FBI wanted 911 to happen.

The US government did not charge Bin Laden with 911,

U.S. officially drop all charges against Osama bin Laden

…Bin Laden was indicted back in 1998 in the Southern District of New York for his role in the al Qaeda attack on the U.S. embassies in Tanzania and Kenya, which killed more than 200 people, including a dozen Americans.
The indictment was later revised to charge bin Laden in the dual bombings of two American embassies in East Africa that killed 224 on August 7, 1998, and in the suicide attack on the USS Cole in 2000. None of the charges involved the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

The 911 Commission evidence that Al Qaida had anything to do with the attacks depends on someone waterboarded after having contact with the hijackers in Germany. They had been watched 24/7 by German intelligence who notices nothing.

For those who mock conspiracy theory, could they please explain the ‘dancing Israelis’. They were Mossad agents who set up to film the 911 attack before it happened. They were actually set up to film the second plane hit that no one at the time knew about. They appeared on Israeli TV to say they were Mossad, that they wanted to ‘document the event’ and said they warned the US government. After being arrested, they were allowed to return to Israel.

Syrian uprising inspired by Arab spring

16.08.2012 02:47

It would be a mistake to condemn the Syrian uprising as simply a strategy of US Imperialism, though there can be no doubt that major and minor imperial powers are trying to influence the outcome to their own advantage.

We should support those elements of the uprising that are against the tyranny of Assad and are also anti-imperialist.
