Former Saddam Officers Dominate ISIS Ranks: US Recruits?
by Stephen Lendman
Global Research.ca reported former US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) head/retired Lt. General Michael Flynn citing official US documents telling Al Jazeera creating ISIS was “a willful (Obama administration) decision.”
A strategic one serving US interests. Its insurgents aren’t an independent entity or enemy to be destroyed. The so-called war on ISIS is a complete fabrication - as phony as America’s “war on terror.”
Washington ignores Security Council Resolution 2178 (September 2014) calling on member states to “suppress the recruiting, organizing, transporting, equipping and financing of foreign terrorist fighters” (ISIS and related groups). It does precisely the opposite. Strategic aims include creating a cauldron of regional violence and instability, toppling Syria’s Assad, replacing his government with pro-Western stooges, mainly benefitting Washington and Israel.
The U.S. Is Destroying Europe
Eric Zuesse, originally posted at strategic-culture.org
In Libya, Syria, Ukraine, and other countries at the periphery or edges of Europe, U.S. President Barack Obama has been pursuing a policy of destabilization, and even of bombings and other military assistance, that drives millions of refugees out of those peripheral areas and into Europe, thereby adding fuel to the far-rightwing fires of anti-immigrant rejectionism, and of resultant political destabilization, throughout Europe, not only on its peripheries, but even as far away as in northern Europe.
Shamus Cooke at Off-Guardian headlines on 3 August 2015, “Obama’s ‘Safe Zone’ in Syria Intended to Turn It into New Libya,” and he reports that Obama has approved U.S. air support for Turkey’s previously unenfoceable no-fly zone over Syria. The U.S. will now shoot down all of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s planes that are targeting the extremist-Muslim groups, including ISIS, that have taken over huge swaths of Syrian territory.
Straight Talk on Syria
by Stephen Lendman
Syria is a sovereign independent country threatening no others, an Israeli regional rival, a thorn in the side of Washington’s hegemonic aims, an ally of Iran and Hezbollah, a victim of US imperial ruthlessness.
There’s nothing civil about Obama’s war on Syria despite official claims otherwise. Conflict was planned months in advance of its March 2011 onset, weeks after US-led NATO attacked Libya without just cause, Washington thinking both governments could be toppled in months - replaced by puppet regimes serving Western interests. One of many Big Lies proliferated about both governments claims popular sentiment rejected their ruling authorities. At the height of US-led aggression on Libya, Gaddafi had overwhelming support.
Unjustifiable De Facto Martial Law in Ferguson, MO
by Stephen Lendman
US federal, state, county or city authorities circumventing constitutional protections with de facto or de jure martial law based on exaggerated state of emergency conditions reveals police state America in plain sight - enforced against the nation’s most vulnerable, grievously abused, justified in demanding redress.
Killer cops murder Blacks in America with virtual impunity hundreds of times a year - on city streets, in rural areas, private homes, commercial spaces, jail cells among other places. Jim Crow flourishes in America - with full support from federal, state and local authorities. Racial profiling is rife. African-Americans are ruthlessly abused - arrested for driving, walking, speaking, chewing gum or doing virtually anything legitimate while Black.
End The Jewish Occupation Of The Solidarity Movement
By Gilad Atzmon
I would like to congratulate The US Campaign To End Israeli Occupation (EOIO) for confirming the substance of my argument that Jewish domination of the solidarity movement has had a corrosive effect on the movement. My argument is detailed in my recent book, The Wandering Who.
Ten days ago, we learned that the Israeli Government has actually recruited left organisations to cleanse the Solidarity movement of its ‘radicals’ –those who dare to tell the truth about the Jewish State and the culture and ideology that drive its politics. EOIO seems to be exceedingly enthusiastic about its role as dictated by its Jerusalem masters. Following JVP’s AKA Jewish Voice Police campaign against Alison Weir, the EOIO has now published its complete list of ‘accusations’ against Ms. Weir. Alison Weir is a dedicated, articulate pro Palestinian American patriot and the founder of the very informative outlet, If Americans Knew.
Phony Claims About Syria Retaining Chemical Weapons
by Stephen Lendman
Since Obama began waging proxy on war in Syria in March 2011, numerous false charges about Assad using chemical weapons followed - discredited by verifiable facts on the ground.
Clear evidence of imported takfiri terrorists using banned toxic agents was systematically covered up - even after Saudi Arabia was caught red-handed supplying sarin gas and other chemical toxins to anti-Assad elements.
Barrels containing banned chemicals were found marked "Made in KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia)." Protective masks were found. So were drugs used when inhaling chemicals.
The Prophet Muhammad is Red Line…but we must be wise
By Khalid Amayreh in Occupied Palestine
Judeo-Nazi settlers in Jerusalem have gone beyond the pale in recent days when two settlers appeared on TV, bad-mouthing the Prophet of Islam.
Unfortunately, the Israeli authorities did very little to restrain let alone punish these racist thugs who seemed hell-bent on setting the entire region on fire for their purpose of realizing their messianic myths.
More shocking still is the virtually total silence by and absence of any condemnation from the intellectual community, the rabbinic establishment and the media in Israel. Jewish circles abroad have also been quite silent about the blasphemous and sacrilegious behavior of these Talmudic fanatics who harbor no respect for other people's beliefs and religious symbols.
Obama’s Duplicitous Iran Nuclear Deal Speech
by Stephen Lendman
On August 5, Obama discussed the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPA) concluded in Vienna last month before a hand-picked audience at American University in Washington.
Ignoring 36 years of continued anti-Iranian hostility, he ludicrously praised America’s “tradition of strong, principled diplomacy.”
He lied claiming terms reached “prohibit Iran from obtaining a nuclear weapon” it deplores, doesn’t want and never made any attempt to develop. “It cuts off all of Iran’s pathways to a bomb,” he blustered.
Fact: Iran wants a nuclear-free Middle East. It wants all these weapons eliminated. Otherwise they may eliminate us. Obama threatened possible war on Iran, saying “(l)et’s not mince words. The choice we face is ultimately between diplomacy and some sort of war - maybe not tomorrow, maybe not three months from now, but soon.”
Maidan 2.0 in Kiev?
by Stephen Lendman
Ordinary Ukrainians have every reason to oppose fascist governance far worse than what they rejected earlier - a Nazi-infested monster responsible for mass unemployment, growing poverty, hyperinflation, social injustice, horrific deprivation, police state repression, and endless war on its own Donbass citizens wanting fundamental democratic rights.
Anti-Russian, Jew-hating, overt Nazi, Interpol wanted criminal (for "public incitement to terrorist and extremist activities") Right Sector leader Dmytro Yarosh called on Ukraine's National Guard, army and security forces to disobey Kiev orders as internecine warfare threatens to erupt into Maidan 2.0. Calling regime officials "traitors," he said "(l)et's stop betrayers who hold high office and want to destabilize the situation in the enemy's rear and…dismiss volunteer movements."
More Accusations of Nonexistent Russian Aggression in Ukraine
by Stephen Lendman
Big Lies repeated ad nauseam get most people to believe them. The long ago discredited canard about Russian aggression in Ukraine continues being repeated - on Saturday by neocon Washington Post editors.
They lied claiming “(n)early six months after Russia agreed to an immediate cease-fire in eastern Ukraine, its forces continue to shell and rocket Ukrainian positions on a daily basis.”
“Far from pulling back heavy weapons or withdrawing its troops as required by the agreement, it has built military bases and deployed 9,000 troops inside Ukraine and stationed another 50,000 just outside the border…”The sources: US-dominated NATO, Britain’s hawkish Royal United Services Institute (RUSI - a defense and security think tank), and Kiev junta authorities - knowingly and willfully proliferating Big Lies.
