Document leads credence to Western creation/support of ISIS - Peter Lemkin - 01-07-2015 DIA Documents re ISIS: The Fall And Rise Of The West's Death Squad StrategyBy Dan Glazebrook"… US Defence Intelligence Agency documents … showed that, far from being an unpredictable bolt from the blue', as the mainstream media tends to imply, the rise of ISIS was in fact both predicted and desired by the US and its allies from as far back as 2012. …"The ISIS suicide bombings in Yemen and Saudi Arabia killing a total of at least 43 people is yet more bitter fruit of the policy pursued by Britain, the US and France and their Gulf allies for the past eight years. This strategy of fostering violently sectarian anti-Shia militias in order to destroy Syria and isolate Iran is itself but part of the West's wider war against the entire global South by weakening any independent regional powers allied to the BRICs countries, and especially to Russia.The strategy was first revealed as far back as 2007 in Seymour Hersh's article The Redirection', which revealed how Bush administration officials were working with the Saudis to channel billions of dollars to sectarian death squads whose role would be to "throw bombs … at Hezbollah, Motada al-Sadr, Iran and at the Syrians" in the memorable words of one US official. But more evidence of precisely how this strategy unfolded has been coming out ever since. Most recently, last Monday saw the release of hundreds of pages of formerly classified US Defence Intelligence Agency documents following a two year court battle in the US. These documents showed that, far from being an unpredictable bolt from the blue', as the mainstream media tends to imply, the rise of ISIS was in fact both predicted and desired by the US and its allies from as far back as 2012. The DIA report, which was widely circulated amongst the USA's various military and security agencies at the time, noted that "There is the possibility of establishing a declared or undeclared Salafist principality in Eastern Syria, and this is exactly what the supporting powers to the opposition want, in order to isolate the Syrian regime which is considered the strategic depth of the Shia expansion (Iraq and Iran)" Elsewhere, the "supporting powers to the opposition" are defined as "Western countries, the Gulf states and Turkey".In other words, a Salafist that is militantly anti-Shia "principality" was "exactly" what the West wanted as part of their war against, not only Syria, but "Shia expansion" in Iraq as well. Indeed, it was specifically acknowledged that "ISI [the forerunner of ISIS] could also declare an Islamic state through its union with other terrorist organisations in Iraq and Syria".The precision of the declassified predictions is astounding. Not only was it predicted that the terrorist groups being supported by Washington and London in Syria would team up with those in Iraq to create an Islamic State', but the precise dimensions of this state were also spelt out: recognising that "the Salafist[s], the Muslim Brotherhood, and AQI are the major forces driving the insurgency in Syria", the report noted that the consequences of this for Iraq would be to "create the ideal atmosphere for AQI [al Qaeda Iraq] to return to its old pockets in Mosul and Ramadi." Mosul, don't forget, was taken by ISIS in June 2014, and Ramadi fell earlier this week. In the three years since the document was drawn up, the policy has continued relentlessly. Recent months have seen the West and its regional allies massively stepping up their support for their anti-Shia death squads. In late March, Saudi Arabia began its bombardment of Yemen following military gains made by the Houthi (Shia) rebels in that country. The Houthis had been the only effective force fighting Al Qaeda in the country, had taken key territories from them last November, and were subsequently threatening them in their remaining strongholds. This was when the Saudis began their bombardment, with US and British support, natch, and, unsurprisingly, Al Qaeda have been the key beneficiary of this intervention, gaining breathing space' and regaining valuable lost territory, retaking the key port of Mukulla within a week of the commencement of the Saudi bombardment.Al Qaeda have also been making gains in Syria, taking two major cities in Idlib province last month following a ramping up of military support from Turkey, Qatar and Saudi Arabia. And of course, Britain has been leading the way for a renewed military intervention in Libya in the guise of a "war against people smuggling" that, as I have argued elsewhere, will inevitably end up boosting the most vicious gangs involved in the trade, namely ISIS and Al Qaeda. So what explains this sudden stepping up of Western and allied' support for al Qaeda and co right now? The answer lies in the increasing disgust at the activities of the death squads across the region. No longer perceived as the valiant freedom fighters they were depicted as in 2011, their role as shock troops for the West's divide and ruin' strategy, promising nothing but a future of ultra-violent trauma and ethnic cleansing, has become increasingly obvious. The period between mid-2013 and mid-2014 saw a significant turning of the tide against these groups. It began in July 2013 with the ouster of Egypt's President Morsi following fears he was planning to send in the Egyptian army to aid the Syrian insurgency. New President Al-Sisi put an end not only to that possibility, but to the flow of fighters from Egypt to Syria altogether. The West hoped to step in the following month with airstrikes against the Syrian government, but their attempts to ensure Iranian and Russian acquiescence in such a move came to nought and they were forced into a humiliating climbdown. Then came the fall of Homs in May 2014, as Syrian government forces retook a key insurgent stronghold. The momentum was clearly with the government side; that is until ISIS' sprang onto the scene and with them, a convenient pretext for the US intervention that had been ruled out just a year before. Meanwhile, in Libya, the pro-death squad parties decisively lost elections for the first elected House of Representatives in June 2014. Their refusal to accept defeat led to a new chapter in the post-NATO Libyan disaster, as they set up a new rival government in Tripoli and waged war on the elected parliament. Yet following a massacre of Egyptians by ISIS in Libya last December, Egypt sent its airforce in on the side of the Tobruk (elected) parliament; it is now, apparently, considering sending in ground troops. Losing ground in Yemen, in Libya, in Egypt and in Syria, the West's whole strategy for using armed Salafists as tools of destabilisation had been starting to unravel. The direct interventions in Syria, Yemen and soon Libya, then, are nothing but a means of propping them up and last Friday's bombings show they are already paying dividends. Document leads credence to Western creation/support of ISIS - Lauren Johnson - 11-07-2015 Document leads credence to Western creation/support of ISIS - Danny Jarman - 14-07-2015 No surprise here. The fighters are largely illiterate and come from villages in Libya and Central Asia. A $500 a month salary and a cowboy lifestyle is a winning lottery ticket for them. ISIS are just another 'made in USA & Israel' death squad, but you need to see it in the frame as a war against Islam. Iraq and Syria, without ISIS terror would be prosperous Muslim countries. Sousse in Tunisia was an extremely popular tourist destination for Brits before the attacks, now Tunisia's tourism industry will suffer greatly. Don't be shocked to see similar type attacks in somewhere like Marrakesh, Sharm El Sheikh, or even the Turkish coastal resorts by "ISIS". There are pictures online of "ISIS" fighters drinking spirits, Budweiser and 'making it rain' on strippers with cash notes. Nothing Islamic about that. So back home, the average joe see's the packaged and branded "ISIS" on the news and his perception is slowly being shaped into one that Islam is barbaric and spawns monsters. At the same time governments across the west use ISIS as an excuse to bring in draconian laws and stifle dissent. Hurrah!

Document leads credence to Western creation/support of ISIS - Michael Barwell - 14-07-2015 They're exploitibng it; I was wondering what the 'Ah-hah' refs were, then I read about Morten Storm and started getting those too. I gather 'Jeb' was part of PNAC who apparently wanted to put the Mid East into chaos. Document leads credence to Western creation/support of ISIS - Michael Barwell - 15-07-2015 Was tickled to see on BBC txt last night, that Laibach are going to N.Korea to play a gig or two; apparently the lead singers called Morten, and that the band's apparently been criticised for ambiguous nationalism... The 'Ah-ha' refs I presume, after having several of them over 4yrs, are to Morten Harket (sp), their lead singer. I had a sudden strong neuralgic when I posted that last one. I had several of the same in Stanhope Park yesterday when I was reading a book ('Scapegoat') about military injustices too, and mic auditory clicking. They've been showing their hand with these toys of theirs recently, in the sense that I'm getting 'effects' pretty much whereever I am; I've had 'em before, but there has to be many precise & synch 'coincidences of these effects before I can 'value' them; sounds incredible, but I have to assume that anywhere there's mo''pho' coverage, they're in my mind, so the Morten Storm thing sticks. |
