How about arming Syria? The Syrian Arab Army is already fighting ISIS

Since 2011, the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has waged a relentless war within Syrian territory against what it has said from the very beginning was an invasion of heavily armed, foreign-backed sectarian extremists. In retrospect, the transparently ludicrous nature of articles like the Guardian's "Syria's rebels unite to oust Assad and push for democracy" is self-evident. The article would lay out Syria's claims side by side with the West's narrative by stating:
In one of the fiercest clashes of the insurrection, Syrian troops finally took control of the town of Rastan after five days of intense fighting with army defectors who sided with protesters. Syrian authorities said they were fighting armed terrorist gangs.
In retrospect, and upon examining the obvious lay of Syria's battlefields today, it is clear Syrian authorities were right.

Shortly after NATO carried out successful "regime change" in Libya in 2011 under the false pretext of a "humanitarian intervention," sectarian-driven mercenaries it armed, funded, and provided air cover for in Libya began steadily streaming into Syria via its northern border with NATO-member Turkey.

Terrorists from the US State Department designated terrorist organization, the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG) officially made contact with terrorists fighting in Syria to offer them weapons, cash, training, and fighters. The London Telegraph would report in their article, "Leading Libyan Islamist met Free Syrian Army opposition group," that:
The meetings came as a sign of a growing ties between Libya's fledgling government and the Syrian opposition. The Daily Telegraph on Saturday revealed that the new Libyan authorities had offered money and weapons to the growing insurgency against Bashar al-Assad.
Mr Belhaj also discussed sending Libyan fighters to train troops, the source said.

Obama to dispatch 3,000 troops to West Africa to 'fight Ebola', locals react

Comment: When the Liberian president recently wrote a letter to Obama asking for help in fighting the Ebola outbreak, armed troops is not what he had in mind! But when all you have is a hammer you treat everything as a nail.

The decision by US President Barack Obama to dispatch 3,000 troops to West Africa to fight the Ebola epidemic has sparked reactions in Liberia.

"We don't need guns to protect us for now. What we need now is drugs. We need vaccine to curtail the spread of this virus. So it is unfortunate to hear that America is sending over 3,000 troops," one Liberian citizen said.

"If it is an armed troop then I will start to question myself whether this virus can be fought by guns or so," said another Liberian.

On Tuesday, Obama described the Ebola epidemic in West Africa as a threat to the entire world.

In an address from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention headquarters in Atlanta, Obama celled the US effort to fight the virus being part of "the largest international response in the history of the CDC"

Russian president Vladimir Putin met with Argentine president Cristina Fernandez last month in which they talked possible trade increases
The companies are in Moscow as part of the World Food Moscow exhibition.

Representatives from over 100 Argentine companies will be involved in talks in Russia to increase the export of goods by the South American country to Russia on Monday and Tuesday.

The mission includes a total of 114 firms in sectors such as food and beverage, goods and services, oil and gas, pharmaceutical, bovine genetics, technology for cooling and freezing of meat and agricultural machinery.

The business meeting is part of the Program for Growth and Diversification of Exports (Padex) which aims at increasing Argentine exports.

Comment: From Divide and Conquer in Latin America: Sabotaging BRICS in 'our backyard'
The question is whether enough people are going to see this and refuse, at last, to be bullied, or if the fear that the US provokes is going to continue to keep them cowed. I only hope that the masses aren't too far gone, and actually want better leadership. Countries like the ones listed in this article have trauma carried from decades of dictatorships, many supported or even installed by CIA coups. When trauma wins over minds, it is very difficult to gather courage to actually look for better solutions. The population has been immobilized.

Let's hope that the "backyards" of the world can actually see that there can be a different choice than a) being tortured or killed or b) allowing the US to invade. The possibility for leaders with Conscience exists. But in order for them to succeed, we all have to stand our ground in this Media War. A Media War where the casualties are more than just truth and justice. Real people are dying as a result of all the Lies.

Our man in Syria: Interview with Colonel of the "Free Syrian Army"

Col. Abdel Jabbar al-Okaidi
One of the key US men in Syria, the "Free Syrian Army" (FSA) Col. Abdel Jabbar al-Okaidi, who operated mostly in the Greater Aleppo area, was open about his daily communication and collaboration with extremist jihadists from the "Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant" (ISIL) and al-Qaeda's official branch in Syria, Jabhat al-Nusra. He refers to their fighters as brothers. In one footage after the rebel capture of Menagh military airbase, he even appeared standing next to an Egyptian jihadist from ISIL, Abu Jandal, while thanking him and his group for their contributions. The US is known to have funneled military aid to al-Okaidi and others in the FSA throughout the last couple of years.


Comment: These groups are all aligned, so the US plan to fund FSA or other groups to fight ISIS is nothing but an illusion to deceive the public. Their goal is to overthrow Assad.

It's the same with the so-called coalition.

Anti-ISIL coalition mere joke, says Iran president

Nigel Farage: Stop playing wargames with Putin, he's on our side


RT
Tue, 16 Sep 2014 09:54 UTC

The West must desist from its staunch opposition to Russian President Vladimir Putin's policy in Ukraine, and form an alliance with Moscow in order to defeat Islamic State (IS), UK Independence Party (UKIP) leader Nigel Farage has said.

Farage demanded the West stop antagonizing "the Russian bear" by poking him "with a stick", and insisted President Putin is "on our side" in the global war against jihadist extremism.

The right wing MP called upon Western leaders to "grow up" and "recognize the real threat facing all of our countries, communities and societies." It's time for Europe to halt the geopolitical theatre in Ukraine, he warned, and prepare a plan like "like Syria, like Iraq, like Kenya like Nigeria" to deal with the real and substantive "threat that faces us."

Farage sparked controversy earlier in 2014 when he publicly declared Putin to be the statesman he harbors the most admiration for.


Comment: Is Vladimir Putin the greatest leader of our time? Yep


In a European Parliament (EP) debate on Tuesday morning, the UKIP chief offered a sympathetic interpretation of Russia's actions in Ukraine. Farage argued EU leaders had directly encouraged the uprising in the conflict-ridden state, which he says has predictably prompted a retaliatory reaction from Moscow.

Al-Qaeda uniting with ISIS in response to US looming strikes in Syria

Al-Qaeda has urged militant groups in Iraq and Syria to put their differences aside and unite against a US coalition which will strike against the Islamic State (IS). There are reports that IS has gone underground following the US airstrike announcement.

Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula and Al-Qaeda in the Islamic Maghreb made a rare joint plea to jihadist organizations, which was posted online.

"Stop the infighting between you and stand as one rank against America's campaign and that of its satanic alliance that lies in wait for all of us, to break us stick by stick," they stated, according to Reuters.

The groups urged militant fighters and their supporters to "stop the campaigns of mutual slander, and direct the honest pens and swords against the head of infidelity, America, and its unjust aggressive alliance."

"In the face of this unjust crusaders' campaign, we have no choice but to stand in front of the hater of Islam and Muslims, the US and its allies, who are the real enemies of the Muslim world," said the statement by the Al-Qaeda groups.


Comment: NATO's Terror Hordes in Iraq a Pretext for Syria Invasion
To undermine Iran, which is predominantly Shiite, the Bush Administration has decided, in effect, to reconfigure its priorities in the Middle East. In Lebanon, the Administration has coöperated with Saudi Arabia's government, which is Sunni, in clandestine operations that are intended to weaken Hezbollah, the Shiite organization that is backed by Iran. The U.S. has also taken part in clandestine operations aimed at Iran and its ally Syria. A by-product of these activities has been the bolstering of Sunni extremist groups that espouse a militant vision of Islam and are hostile to America and sympathetic to Al Qaeda.

IS, which was previously aligned with Al-Qaeda, has distanced itself from the organization in recent months. It has also engaged in battles with other Islamic militant groups in Syria amid the country's civil war, including the Nusra Front - which is backed by Al-Qaeda.

Power-hungry U.K. social worker shares her experience in secret family court on Facebook

Senior social worker Siobhan Condon likes the rush of power
A social worker gloated about having three children taken into care on her publicly accessible Facebook page.

Siobhan Condon, 41, bragged about the power she felt at breaking up the family and revelled in the judge giving the parents a 'massive rollicking'.

She even referred to the solicitor in the case complimenting her 'fine nails and shoes' before saying she was about to 'do the mammoth grim task' of removing the youngsters from their home and signing off with three kisses.

The children, all aged under ten at the time, were put into foster care following the court hearing last year.

Their mother reported Miss Condon's comments to Essex County Council after spotting them on the social worker's Facebook page, which was open to the public and gave enough information to identify the family.

Comment: Instead of getting fired these social workers are offered another position elsewhere. The same goes for these corrupt and violent police officers or teachers. They will remain within this psychopathic system, as they are a perfect fit.

Paranoia Switch: US faces the prospect of "many" terrorist attacks similar to September 11

If the US fails to attack Islamic State (IS) militants in Iraq and Syria, the country could face the prospect of "many" terrorist attacks similar to September 11, a top-ranking Democrat says. It comes as the House debates arming Syrian rebels to fight IS.

Speaking during a floor debate at the House of Representatives on Tuesday, Eliot Engel (D-N.Y.) of the House Foreign Affairs Committee expressed his support for President Barack Obama's plan to combat IS (previously known as ISIS/ISIL) and said that failure to authorize the plan would lead to devastating consequences for the US.

"I understand that my colleagues are war weary. I'm war weary. I understand the American people are war weary," Engel said, as quoted by The Hill. "But I think doing nothing would invite something very similar that happened to my city, New York City, on that fateful day of Sept. 11, 2001."


Comment: Pathetic excuses to get people riled up for another war campaign. The US is apparently always reluctant to go to war, weary and so on, yet they have to do it to stop some danger, humanitarian catastrophe, which they themselves created.


"If we do nothing, ISIS (IS) will plot and plan and we'll have many more 9/11s in the United States, in Europe, in the Middle East," he claimed.


Comment: Limbic Warfare and Martha Stout's "Paranoia Switch"


The House is currently debating whether or not to pass an amendment that would allow President Obama to direct the military to arm and train rebel factions in Syria in order to fight the Islamic State.

New emergency drills simulate nuclear explosion in Nebraska - The role of drills in false flag operations

Considering the large number of times that a false flag attack has occurred at or around the same time as a military drill or a civilian emergency preparation drill in the past, it is understandable that many researchers, activists, and otherwise well-informed observers become concerned whenever such drills are scheduled.

This very reason is perhaps why many are raising their eyebrows at a drill scheduled for today and Wednesday (September 16-17) in Nebraska which simulates a nuclear explosion near I-80 in the vicinity of Scottsbluff.

As reported by the local ABC News affiliate KOTA News, Regional West Medical Center is scheduled to participate in the drill in the capacity of training to decontaminate victims, ensure accurate reporting, and treating injuries.

The drill is part of a larger exercise involving 21 government agencies.

Emergency Preparedness Coordinator Dave Edwards stated that "Every time we do an exercise, it is to test our plans. Not necessarily how the staff reacts, but are our plans in place correct."

Last year, the same hospital worked with staff to prepare for a live shooter scenario.

While it is important to stress that this writer is not predicting a false flag event during the time of this scheduled exercise, it is also important to stress the prevalence of such drills in false flag operations.

"Going after" the Islamic State but who is behind the caliphate project?

Prof Michel Chossudovsky

The Islamic State (IS) is portrayed as an Enemy of America and the Western world.

With the support of America's indefectible British ally, President Barack Obama has ordered a series of US bombing raids on Iraq allegedly with a view to defeating the rebel army of the Islamic State (IS).

"We will not waver in our determination to confront the Islamic State ... If terrorists think we will weaken in the face of their threats they could not be more wrong." (Barack Obama and David Cameron, Strengthening the NATO alliance, op ed published in the London Times, September 4, 2014, emphasis added)

But Who is behind the Islamic State Project?

In a bitter irony, until recently the rebels of the Islamic State, formerly known as the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL) were heralded as Syria's "opposition freedom fighters" committed to "restoring democracy" and unseating the secular government of Bashar al Assad.

And who was behind the jihadist insurgency in Syria?

Those who ordered the bombing campaign are those who are behind the Caliphate Project.

The Islamic State (IS) militia, which is currently the alleged target of a US-NATO bombing campaign under a "counter-terrorism" mandate, was and continues to be supported covertly by the United States and its allies.

In other words, the Islamic State (IS) is a creation of US intelligence with the support of Britain's MI6, Israel's Mossad, Pakistan's Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI) and Saudi Arabia's General Intelligence Presidency (GIP), Ri'āsat Al-Istikhbārāt Al-'Āmah ( رئاسة الاستخبارات العامة‎). Moreover, according to Israeli intelligence sources (Debka) NATO in liaison with the Turkish High Command has been involved in the recruitment of jihadist mercenaries from the outset of the Syrian crisis in March 2011.
