US Supplying ISIS with Aircraft Downing Weapons
by Stephen Lendman
On November 4, the Wall Street Journal headlined “US, Allies to Boost Aid to Syria Rebels” - aka ISIS and other takfiri terrorists, US proxy foot soldiers, imperial death squads, no so-called “moderates” among them.
The Journal stopped short of explaining it, instead saying “(s)hipments of arms (and) supplies are aimed at pressuring Assad while countering Russia (and) Iran.”
Longstanding US plans call for regime change in Syria, eliminating its independent government, replacing it with one Washington and Israel control, raping the country, balkanizing it, and exploiting its people - at the same time, creating endless violence, instability and chaos like what’s happening in Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya and virtually everywhere America shows up, the greatest menace to peace in world history. According to the Journal, increased weapons shipments to anti-Assad elements aim to “challenge the intervention of Russia and Iran on behalf of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, US officials and their counterparts (from Saudi Arabia, Qatar and other Gulf States) in the region said.
Meet Israel’s Terminator
by Stephen Lendman
Actor, former California governor Arnold Schwarzenegger gained US film fame as Hollywood’s “Terminator,” followed by a television series, comic books, novels, and recognition by the Library of Congress as “culturally, historically, or aesthetically significant” filmography.
Schwarzenegger’s role was fictional. Israel has the real thing. On November 5, the Jewish Press (JP) headlined “Meet the Terminator: IDF Soldier Killed 3 Terrorists in 2 Weeks,” identifying him as “Cpl. T” - “serving in the Shimshon Battalion of the Kfir Brigade.”
Palestinians are shamelessly called knife-wielding terrorists. Killer soldiers, police and extremist settlers are national heroes. Cold blood murder is considered self-defense. Cpl. T has blood on his hands at least thrice, justifying murder by claiming he foiled stabbing attempts - the pre-scripted IDF explanation, justifying all killings of Palestinians, including young children and women, eyewitness and video evidence often refuting official Israeli accounts.
ISIS Using Mustard Gas in Syria
by Stephen Lendman
US-supported ISIS and other terrorists were caught red-handed using sarin and other chemical weapons against civilians in Syria numerous times - Assad wrongfully blamed for their crimes.
No evidence suggests his forces used them at any time throughout the conflict. Plenty shows CIA and US special forces train takfiri terrorists in chemical weapons use, perhaps supplying them with toxic agents to use.
Saudi Arabia was caught red-handed providing them with toxic agents in containers marked “made in KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia).”
In early November, Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) experts confirmed terrorists’ use of mustard gas and chlorine in Syria with “utmost confidence” - calling perpetrators “non-state actor(s).”
Nightmarish TPP Text Revealed
by Stephen Lendman
TPP now revealed in full is one of the latest examples of how fascists running things in Washington harm public welfare and safety - in bed with predatory monied interests exclusively. Theirs alone matter.
This outrageous deal hangs the vast majority of Americans out to dry, sacrificing them on the altar of corporate profits as a be all and end all, an example of over-the-top greed and contempt for ordinary people. Monied interests crafted their own sweetheart deal with full Obama administration support, a dagger in the heart of consumer safety and welfare.
Obama lied claiming it has “strong protections for workers and the environment…(It) puts American workers first.” TPP is nightmarishly anti-worker, anti-consumer, anti-environment, contemptuously spurning the public interest.
A Confused Situation as to Syria and ISIS
By Dr. Rodrigue Tremblay
[There are] “three ways to be influential in American politics: make donations to political parties, establish think tanks, and control media outlets. Haim Saban, Pro-Israel billionaire and major political contributor, and adviser to Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, (2009)
[There] “is a memo [at the Pentagon] that describes how we’re going to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran.” General Wesley Clark, former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO (1997-2000), (interview of March 2, 2007) “Next the statesmen will invent cheap lies, putting the blame upon the nation that is attacked, and every man will be glad of those conscience-soothing falsities, and will diligently study them, and refuse to examine any refutations of them.” Mark Twain (1835-1910), American author and satirist
Hillary Clinton Endorses Netanyahu’s High Crimes
by Stephen Lendman
Israel’s Netanyahu-led killing machine is murdering, brutalizing, mass imprisoning and torturing Palestinians daily - young children treated like adults, women like men, no mercy shown.
Barbarism defines Israeli policy, fully endorsed by Washington - notably by Hillary Clinton as US senator, Secretary of State and now presidential aspirant. She above all others in the race threatens world peace, an unbridled hawk, war her strategy of choice.
The Forward (also called The Jewish Daily Forward) is a Zionist publication, one-sided pro-Israeli views alone acceptable, criticism shut out.Hillary Clinton got op-ed space, on November 4 headlining “How I Would Forge Better Ties to Israel - and Rebuild Bond With Benjamin Netanyahu,” saying:
His scheduled November 9 Washington visit “is an opportunity to reaffirm the unbreakable bonds of friendship and unity between the people and governments of the United States and Israel.”
Syrians Among the Many Victims of US State Terrorism
by Stephen Lendman
US barbarity is longstanding. Imperial ruthlessness shows no mercy. Millions of corpses bear witness, Syrians among the latest victims of Washington’s quest for unchallenged global dominance, endless wars its strategy of choice to achieve it.
Meeting in late October with French parliamentarians in Damascus, Assad said “(t)he sufferings of the Syrian people are connected, firstly, with terrorism and destroyed infrastructure, and, secondly, with the blockade imposed on Syria.”
“Many countries…including France, do do not stop supporting terrorist groups and provid(ing) them political cover in Syria and in the whole region.” Eliminating their threat should be prioritized.
No Moderate Syrian Rebels Exist
by Stephen Lendman
US claims otherwise are a complete fabrication. All anti-Assad forces are US-trained, armed, funded, and directed terrorists, taught the fine art of killing, committing atrocities and using chemical weapons - including ISIS, Al Qaeda, Jabhat al-Nusra and various splinter groups.
The so-called Free Syrian Army and other alleged “moderates” exist only in US and go-along media propaganda reports, willful misinformation to deceive an uninformed public. Wars depend on lies to gain popular support, or at least no significant opposition. Often they collapse under the own weight.
Putin’s righteous Syrian mission shows the emperor has no clothes. If enough Americans pay attention and express outrage, Washington’s imperial Middle East agenda may falter, perhaps collapse. It’s already wobbly.
Arrested Palestinian Children Being Tortured
by Stephen Lendman
Longstanding Israeli policy brutalizes Palestinian children solely for political reasons, no matter how young, terrorizing and traumatizing them - especially in times like now with war throughout Occupied Palestine raging, an entire population threatened.
Palestinian Detainees Committee head Issa Qaraqe reported shocking information. In October, Israeli soldiers and police kidnapped over 800 Palestinian children, some too young to understand what happened or why - subjecting them to severe torture and abuse.
“This is a systematic Israeli policy targeting the children, the future of Palestine,” Qaraqe explained. “The large number of abductions in (a single month) shows a deliberate policy, and a serious level of military escalation.”
“A large number of abducted children have been assaulted and beaten by the soldiers. They have also been tortured by the Israeli interrogators and jailers.”
Brutal measures used include:
Netanyahu’s New PR Chief
by Stephen Lendman
Leaders are best understood by their policies and appointees. Netanyahu’s new Arab-hating UN envoy Danny Danon claims Palestinian leaders teach “kids to stab Jews at school. (They) established an incubator to raise children as terrorists.”
Extremist settler Ran Baratz is new Netanyahu PR chief, dependent on cabinet ministers approving him next week.
He’s another polarizing figure, best known for favoring unlimited settlement expansion on stolen Palestinian land, wanting Al-Aqsa replaced by a third Jewish temple, denying Muslims access to Islam’s third holiest site unless they recognize equal rights there for Jews, and most recently insulting Obama and John Kerry.
