PUTIN IS NOT DEAD

Russian media is reporting that an asassination attempt on Putin has been foiled. The suspects claim that Doku Umarov is behind the plot. Umarov has claimed responsibility for terrorist attacks on Domodedovo International Airport and Moscow Metro. He is also accused of bombing a train in 2009, and survivors of the Beslan siege have identified Umarov as one of those present.

The desire of the West to apparently get Putin, one way or the other, is plain to see.

He has been accused of involvement of the Beslan siege.

He was immediately accused of murdering Litvenenko.

In 2007 the scoundrel Berezovsky told The Guardian that he was advocating and working for a violent revolution in Russia to get rid of Putin.

The National Endowment for Democracy is financing The White Revolution against Putin's election next week.

Last month Foreign Policy magazine, which is owned by the Bilderberg Washington Post, published an article curiously entitled "Putin is Already Dead".

And right on cue, The Khordokovsky-and-green-genocide-loving Guardian has today published another letter from Khordokovsky in which Khordokovsky argues that the evolution not revolution (which has shades of Alan Partridge) has begun so Putin is already finished.

Umarov has been linked to al Qaeda by the UN.

It could all be a farce though.

Russia is now a member of the WTO and G8, organisations considered to be integral to the NWO, for whatever reason Russia abstained on UN SCR 1973 and thus has the blood of many thousands of Libyan civilians on its hands, and has recently signed over some of its valuable natural resources over to the NWO.

On the other hand, if you watch this video by LPAC on Russia's development while we have been bailing out our Nazi lords of satanism, warmongering and derivatives, there is an argument that Russia now threatens the NWO.

WORKFARE OR FASCISM?

Large employers are withdrawing from the Workfare scheme proposed by the current government. Several politicians, businessmen and media organisations have praised the idea. Indeed, The Daily Telegraph and The Daily Mail are at the front of the demands for Workfare.

Today The Daily Workfare Mail has an article in which former Marks & Spencer boss Sir Stuart Rose supports Workfare. The article mentions that Rose started at M&S stacking shelves, but information that is buried in the article states that he first joined M&S as a management trainee, so had a guaranteed job and guaranteed promotion up the career ladder after his presumably short stint stacking shelves (can't have the management associating with the shopfloor staff). Rose says,

‘It’s about getting people into the routine of working, making sure they are up in the morning, making sure they’re presentable, make sure they arrive on time, make sure they know what it’s like to have a properly constructed work programme, and shelf stacking is just a part of it.

‘When I started off in my retail career as a management trainee in Marks & Spencer’s 40 years ago, I was put to shelf stacking and indeed to sweeping out the warehouse for a day.

‘If you are drawing unemployment benefit and you are looking to get into the workplace and somebody says to you, “We’ll give you some experience” and you have got a week apparently to withdraw from it if it doesn’t suit you, why would you not do it?

‘If I was the parent of one of these people I’d say, “Go on to it, lad, get in there, get stuck in”.

‘So I find it quite baffling and I think it’s very, very sad, with I think it’s 20-odd per cent of unemployment around the age of 18, that kids are being led to believe that big business is exploiting them, which is nonsense.’ Sir Stuart said firms were apparently being ‘intimidated’ by the campaign against the scheme, adding: ‘One or two have shown a little less than backbone, if I might say so.

‘I think you have got to stick with it. If there are one or two issues of administration in the process that need sorting out, then let’s sort it out, but it seems to me quite straightforward.

‘You can come in, you can get work experience and if you like it you can stay here and possibly get offered a job; if you don’t like it after the first week you can go away. I don’t get it, what’s the problem?’

[source : Show some backbone! Ex-M&S chief tells firms to defy militants on work experience scheme, The Daily Mail, 27/02/2012]

What is wrong with this? Well, if you go to the Right to Work webiste you will find a report entitled "A comparative review of workfare programmes in the United States, Canada and Australia", financed by the DWP themselves, that looked at Workfare in the USA, Canada and Australia. The report concludes that Workfare did very little if anything to help people find work (this when jobs were more available), and Workfare may in fact be harming chances of finding employment because while those on the scheme were 'working' and travelling to and from their location of 'work' they were unable to look for real full time employment with real prospects.

What a farce!

But why is the government proposing Workfare in the first place? Because we are broke. Now Captain Oik admits it, but despite being Chancellor for nearly two years blames it all on Labour (which is half right, the other half is his fault). During his time as Chancellor he has been promising a land of milk and honey and rivers made of chocolate if only we, i.e. the working and middle classes, suffer austerity to pay for the reckless gambling of his good friends the Zionazi warmongering Rothschilds and their ilk, the banker classs. Oik said,

“The British Government has run out of money because all the money was spent in the good years,” the Chancellor said. “The money and the investment and the jobs need to come from the private sector.”

[source : George Osborne: UK has run out of money, The Daily Telegraph, 26/02/2012]

So now we see why the implementation of Workfare is so crucial to the government. They want and need a source of free labour, just like in war they want and need a source of free cannon fodder.

So what is Workfare? It's when you do some 'work' in return for experience and your benefits. The company 'employing' you while you 'work' does not pay you a bean. All the money comes from the government. The result is that the government pays you to work for a company, the company gets the result of your 'work' and you may or may not get a job after it. But please read the aforementioned DWP report about USA, Canada and Autralia; WORKFARE DOESN'T WORK! AND THE DWP KNOWS IT!

Workfare is fascism, plain and simple.

The DWP knows it.

McDonalds knows it.

Grayling knows it.

Osborne knows it.

Under normal economic conditions Workfare would not even be discussed because jobs would be much more abundant and easily obtained. However, as Sir Stuart Rose himself acknowledges our economic condition is far from normal. Unemployment is increasing, particularly among the youth, and is forecast to get much worse before it gets better.

But why are economic conditions far from normal? That's right. Because of the bankers. And it's not just all bankers, it's those at the very, very top, who are reaping all the power and the wealth from the chaos that their gambling caused. And it is the working and middle classes who are being asked, or ordered, to work for free.

If a few of these bankers were hung, drawn and quartered to teach the rest of the banker class to respect the God-like power to create money out of thin air that they have been entrusted with by our corrupt wretches in the Houses of Parliament, then at least we would see that maybe, just maybe, we are indeed "all in this together", to quote Cap'n Oik. Perhaps then Workfare could possibly be seen as a solution by more of society.

But I don't see any gallows.

I see a disunited fascist kingdom.

And it's becoming more disunited and more fascist by the day.

A PRAYER TO THE GREAT SPIRIT

Oh, Great Spirit.

Hear my prayer.

Help us out, mate!

SOMALIA'S OIL

Following the London conference on Somalia last week we can now have full confidence that the reason why Great Britain is so interested in Somalia is oil.

Yet it is the extent of oil deposits beneath the Indian Ocean that is most exciting Somali officials. One said the potential was comparable to that of Kuwait, which has more than 100bn barrels of proven oil reserves. If true, the deposits would eclipse Nigeria's reserves – 37.2bn barrels – and make Somalia the seventh largest oil-rich nation.

[source : Britain leads dash to explore for oil in war-torn Somalia, The Observer, 26/02/2012]

But the same report begins with the use of British taxpayer money to help the likes of BP to get in there.

Britain is involved in a secret high-stakes dash for oil in Somalia, with the government offering humanitarian aid and security assistance in the hope of a stake in the beleaguered country's future energy industry.

Is this fascism?

The humanitarian aid will come from taxpayer money. The security assistance will also come from taxpayer money.

So just how much is BP offering?

The article perhaps acknowledges this fascism, and attempts to put lipstick on the fascist pig with this paragraph.

British involvement in the future Somali oil industry would be a boon for the UK economy and comes at a time when the world is increasingly concerned about the actions of Iran, the second-biggest oil producer in Opec.

Remember that this is a report from The Khordokovsky-and-green-genocide-loving Guardian News and Media Limited.

Just how will this be "a boon for the UK economy"?

And the warmongering over Iran is due to a bunch of Zionutters who have been made paranoid of the rest of the world by their own Zionazi leadership from the Rothschilds after they and their close friends the Warburgs engineered Nazi Germany and the Holocaust to convince a sceptical world Jewry that the only safe place for Jews was Palestine and nowhere else but Palestine.

And the al Qaeda threat is manufactured too. Al Qaeda is a MI6/CIA operation. There is a possibility that al Qaeda have been getting into Somalia through al Shabab so that Great Britain can say, "look, Somalia. If you don't give us your lovely lovely oil we'll get our al Qaeda guys in Somalia to put a bullet in your head, just like they did with Gadaffi. And you wouldn't want that now. Would you?"

Face it, Britons. We are run by fascist gangstaz.

THE UTOPIAN DEMOCRACY OF SAUDI ARABIA

Saudi Arabia is an absolute monarchy. The king has the majority if not all of the power, and his family occupies most of the sham ministerial positions. Women cannot vote. The kingdom was formed after the Sauds helped the British to stab the Palestinians in the back after the Palestinians were promised independence from the Ottomans if they allied with Great Britain during WW1 to kick the Ottomans out. In return the Palestinians were betrayed and instead got mass Jewish immigration, leading to the creation of Israel and all the squalor, death, bloodshed and barbarity that has resulted since; largest refugee camps in the world in Gaza and West Bank, occupation, wars, terrorism and 9/11 (which the Saudis were involved in).

Uprisings in Saudi Arabia are being brutally put down, with British weapons and assistance. In fact, Saudi Arabia likes to brutally put down uprisings so much it even assists its neighbour Bahrain, another utopia of democracy, in putting down theirs!

Yet the Saudis stormed out of the Enemies of Syria (and everywhere else on the planet) conference on Syria because the attendees could not agree on assisting the Syrian uprising!

Honestly. You could not make this stuff up!

And the Saudis have now publicly stated that they will arm the Syrian al Qaeda rebs.

Is that legal?

Maybe Craig Murray could answer that question on international law. Just how far can one country assist a revolution/uprising/rebellion in another country?

DOUBLE STANDARDS TAKES A TRIP TO TUNIS

At the Enemies of Syria (and everywhere else on the planet) conference in Tunis, Foreign Minister William Hague said that Britain was collecting evidence of war crimes in Syria.

Mr Hague said Britain was documenting the evidence of crimes against humanity in the country with a view to possible prosecutions in the International Criminal Court.

'Those responsible for the murder of entire families, the shelling of homes, the execution of detainees, the cleansing of political opponents and the torture and rape of women and children must be held to account,' he said.

[source : 'Whose side are they on?' Hillary Clinton blasts Russia and China as 'despicable' for opposing UN action on Syria, The Daily Mail, 25/02/2012]

But what about our glorious allies al Qaeda in Libya, Mr Hague?

They are torturing, exectuing, and raping.

And NATO (Neo Al Qaeda Terrorist Organisation) bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed Libya and Libyan civilians.

This takes double standards to a completely new level of incredibility.

And as for Clintonella de Vil. She said

'It's quite distressing to see two permanent members of the Security Council using their veto while people are being murdered - women, children, brave young men - houses are being destroyed.

[source : 'Whose side are they on?' Hillary Clinton blasts Russia and China as 'despicable' for opposing UN action on Syria, The Daily Mail, 25/02/2012]

How many Pakistani and Afghan women and children have been murderded and how many houses have been destroyed by unmanned drones while she has been Secretary of State?

And the USA has used its veto to defend Israel which as we all know is mudering women and children (take Operation Cast Lead) and destroying homes to make way for illegal settlements and an illegal wall.

Honestly. You couldn't make this stuff up!

SYRIAN REBELS GET THEIR ARMS FROM THE WEST

Are we supplying weapons to the Syrian al Qaeda rebs as well as advising them and providing logistical support?!

Foreign powers are turning a blind eye to weapons purchases by Syrian exiles who are already smuggling light arms, communications equipment and night vision goggles to rebels inside Syria, a Syrian opposition source said on Friday.

"We are bringing in defensive and offensive weapons... It is coming from everywhere, including Western countries and it is not difficult to get anything through the borders," the source told Reuters, speaking on condition of anonymity.

[source : Syrian rebels get arms from abroad: source, Reuters, 24/02/2012]

MY LETTER TO MY MP ABOUT THE USE OF BRITISH SPECIAL FORCES IN THE DRIVE TO WW3

I have just sent the following letter to my MP about the use of British Special Forces in the drive to WW3.

I request that if you want to know what is going on that you use this letter verbatim or amend it to your hearts desire and ask your MP too.

This insanity must stop immediately.

==============================================

I write to you as my MP to express my grave concerns that British Special Forces (BSF) are once again being used to foment a civil war. Last year allegations that BSF were involved with the Libyan rebels were laughed off as conspiracy theory. But only a few weeks ago the BBC showed that BSF were in there right from the start, guiding and advising the Libyan rebel army. UN SCR 1973 gave NATO the power to implement a No Fly Zone and protect civilians, but within days of UN SCR 1973 being adopted the assassination of Gaddafi was openly proposed in British media. Libyan civilians were instead bombed to death by NATO, and Gaddafi was eventually assassinated. But by whom? With it now publicly admitted that BSF were working with the hierarchy of the Libyan rebel army, is it possible that BSF assassinated Gaddafi? And why were we openly assisting the Libyan rebel army when they had clear links to al Qaeda?

I'll tell you why. Because what we are now seeing in North Africa and the Middle East is a Pentagon plan to go to war on seven nations in five years. We know about this plan because former NATO chief General Wesley Clark has told us. In his book entitled Winning Modern Wars, and in speeches at The Commonwealth Club of California and at the University of Alabama Clark related his experiences at The Pentagon shortly after 11th September 2001. Clark met a Pentagon planner who told him that first just Iraq was being targeted, and the rank and file at The Pentagon could not understand why (this when there was no evidence that Iraq was involved in 9/11). A week or so later six more nations were targets; Sudan, Somalia, Iran, Lebanon, Syria and Libya. So why were Iraq and Iran on the list? Both Iraq and Iran were named as targets in PNAC's Rebuilding America's Defenses published in 2000. Syria and Lebanon were also named in A Clean Break. It is more than curious that on 9/11 founding members of PNAC were in very, very, very influential positions, such as Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld (who had quietly been given the sole power to stand down the US military). PNAC had written in Rebuilding America's Defenses that they wanted "a new Pearl Harbor" to go on a global warmongering rampage to impose US hegemony. They got their “new Pearl Harbor”, perhaps with their inaction, on 9/11.

It is painfully obvious that the list of countries that General Clark named have seen some form of intrigue. Let’s look at Iraq and Lebanon.

We invaded Iraq because we were told Iraq had WMD and was involved in 9/11. Neither allegation was true.

In Lebanon Rafik Hariri was assassinated in 2005. The Special Tribunal for Lebanon accused Syria. Syria subsequently withdrew from Lebanon. But the STL now accuses Hezbollah. Hezbollah accuses Israel, after Hezbollah intercepted images from Israeli drones flying over Beirut closely following Hariri's movements shortly before his assassination. Israel bombed Lebanon back to the stone age in a war in 2006.

And last year the United Nations adopted UN SCR 1973 to stop Gaddafi killing his own citizens. We now know that NATO bombed many civilians to death and has installed a puppet government which is more ruthless than Gaddafi and has a distinct brand of Islamic extremism, torturing and killing whoever it wants, usually black Libyan civilians, without any criticism from us, but occasionally former Libyan government officials too.

The warmongering on Syria and Iran has been accelerating in the last year, and now Somalia is being linked with military intervention from the West following the London Conference on Somalia on 23rd February 2012.

The civil war that UN SCR 1973 was designed to stop was fomented with the assistance of BSF. That is now beyond question.

Reports in The Daily Star in January 2012 quote unnamed British security officials stating that BSF are now in Syria assisting the Syrian rebel army, and that in Syria "it is going to be like Libya, only bloodier".

Is this because of BSF?

Should BSF be used to help the Pentagon implement the PNAC plan of eventual war on Iran, a war that could very easily escalate into World War 3?

There have been recent reports of babies and children dying in Homs, and elsewhere in Syria. Is this the result of BSF stirring up trouble in Syria as part of this plan?

At a time of harsh austerity, caused by the reckless gambling of the banks, which the ordinary British taxpayer is suffering from through no fault of their own, should British taxpayer money be used to start civil wars in countries so that we can claim responsibility to protect (R2P) but then overthrow governments, and in the case of Libya hand them over to al Qaeda?

And should we ally with al Qaeda? Al Qaeda was at the vanguard of the Libyan rebels. Belhaj, the Libyan rebel commander and founder of the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group, was renditioned to Libya and is suing the British government. More recently Zawahiri requested that all Muslims should assist the overthrow of the Syrian government. This amid US intelligence reports that al Qaeda in Iraq is getting in on the action in Syria, committing terrorist atrocities against Syrian military and civilians alike, notably the car bomb attack in Aleppo.

The report published by the most recent observation team from the Arab League in Syria contained some startling revelations. They observed armed gangs who were supported from abroad committing terrorist attacks against a bus carrying civilians. Needless to say, this report was buried by the media because it raised the possibility of BSF in Syria helping al Qaeda to commit terrorist acts.

The current Arab uprisings, as well as that currently being attempted in Russia, were planned and implemented through various NGOs in the West, such as the National Endowment for Democracy, which receives its money from the US State Department. As a consequence of the Arab Uprising we have put Islamic extremists into power; Salafists, The Muslim Brotherhood and al Qaeda. Not bad going, eh?

We have a track record of allying with al Qaeda; Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Libya. There are now credible reports that we are now allying with al Qaeda in Syria. But at the same time as allying with al Qaeda in Libya and Syria, the government of Somalia is asking us to bomb al Shabab, a.k.a. al Qaeda in Somalia!

What is going on?

William Hague and Phil Hammond must be made to make a statement in The House of Commons about the past and present use of BSF in the seven nations named by General Wesley Clark since 11th September 2001, and they must do so as soon as possible. A war over Syria will be completely different to the one over Libya, and could easily result in a world war with Russia. BSF must not be used to foment civil wars for The Pentagon and their masters, the international financial oligarchy of Wall Street and The City of London, who have just screwed us all into fascist austerity with their derivatives gambling. The removal of the current Syrian government would remove Iran’s only major ally in the region. A war with Iran will be even more horrific, and the overthrow of Assad in Syria will without question lead to war with Iran. It was demanded in Rebuilding America’s Defenses and in A Clean Break.

BACK TO SYRIA

Now that the conference on Somalia is over, Syria is back on the agenda.

Webster Tarpley has issued a false flag warning that he has received intelligence from reliable sources that an attempt will be made to blame the Syrian government of using snipers to kill 17 children.

A reliable Russian source in Syria warns that al Jazeera is about to launch within hours a major false flag provocation. Al Jazeera will allege that 17 children have been killed by Assad’s forces. These children are already dead, and have been killed by NATO death squads. The goal is to create an atmosphere of hysteria at the Tunis “Friends of Syria” conference today Friday, which otherwise threatens to be a fiasco due to the boycott by Russia, China, and Lebanon, and due to the fragmented nature of the Syria opposition.

Please spread this story as fast as you can as a highest priority False Flag Alert.

–Webster Tarpley

[source : FALSE FLAG ALERT – Syrian Sources Warn: Al Jazeera to Claim 17 Children Killed by Assad Forces; Kids are Already Dead, Slain by Nato Death Squads to Induce Hysteria at Friday’s “Friends Of Syria” Conference in Tunisia, Tarpley.net, 23/02/2012]

The headline of The Guardian today may be related to this.

The UN has accused the Syrian regime of "crimes against humanity" – including the use of snipers against small children – and has drawn up a list of senior officials who should face investigation, reportedly including President Bashar al-Assad.

[source : Syrian regime accused of crimes against humanity by UN, The Guardian, 24/02/2012]

There is a conference of "Friends of Syria" on Syria in Tunisia today.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said she wanted to see progress on three fronts - providing humanitarian relief, increasing pressure on the regime and preparing for a democratic transition of power.

[source : Syria faces ultimatum from international conference, BBC, 24/02/2012]

Now that does not sound neutral to me. It is open statement that Clintonella de Vil wants Assad out.

And this feeling is reinforced in an Opinion piece in the FT. Written by Emile Nakhleh, an ex-CIA analyst, it proposes a half-baked scheme to lull Assad into a war.

It is time for the west to help the Syrian opposition remove Bashar al-Assad’s regime and save the Syrian people from further slaughter. If the west fails to support Syria’s opposition immediately, the city of Homs – and its population of more than 1m people – will face the fate of its sister city Hama, which was destroyed by Mr Assad’s father Hafez 30 years ago.

...So what should be done? The assistance should begin with establishing a haven for the opposition and the military personnel who defect from the regime, as in northern Iraq in 1991. Food, water, clothes, medical supplies and technical equipment should be dropped into the safety zone. Ankara would have to play a critical role in planning, and ultimately in maintaining and supplying the zone, as it would almost certainly have to be contiguous to Turkey.

If Syrian forces violate the sanctuary, the west should arm the opposition and work with military defectors to organise more effective resistance. If that fails to deter the regime’s brutality and more deaths occur, the west should consider putting a limited number of “boots on the ground”, beginning with the “liberated” zone.

[source : Syria intervention is only a matter of time, FT, 24/02/2012]

To quote The Graduate,

Me : Emile Nakhleh, this whole idea sounds pretty half baked.
Emile Nakhleh: No, it's not. It's completely baked.

Nakhleh uses the example of Iraq in 1991. What happened during Desert Storm? We encouraged an uprising against Saddam, then betrayed it, allowing Saddam to easily identify all his opposition, who he then slaughtered.

If you read the piece it is very one-sided because it does not address anywhere the widely known facts that NATO Special Forces are in Syria assisting the Syrian al Qaeda rebels, and have been for a while. They are using the same trick they used in Libya; foment a civil war, call for humanitarian assistance, then bomb the hell out of the country and hand it over to al Qaeda.

DOUBLE STANDARDS

The violence in Syria, which can be attributable to both sides, could be very quickly stopped if Great Britain, France and the USA stopped their assistance of the Syrian rebels and called on the Syrian rebels to ceasefire. No such attempt has been made. Hence Russia and China have consistently opposed any (overt) intervention in Syria because all attempts that have originated from Great Britain, France and the USA are one sided, calling for Assad to step down and demanding that Assad's military stop their actions while the Syrian rebels can continue their actions (such as the terrorist bombing in Aleppo). Just last week the alleged leader of al Qaeda called on all Muslims to overthrow Assad. There is open talk of openly arming the Syrian rebels (as if it wasn't going on already).

Yesterday a conference was held in London on Somalia. Before the conference the leader of Somalia told Reuters that he would welcome targeted air strikes on al Shabab, now al Qaeda in Somalia. The point of the conference was allegedly to find a peaceful resolution to the civil war. However, al Shabab was not invited.

Al Shabaab was not invited to yesterday's conference, but Mr Cameron insisted its fighters could be brought into the tentative political process if they laid down their weapons and genuinely renounced violence.

[source : Somali terrorists warn of reprisals on British streets, The Independent, 24/02/2012]

So it is OK for the Syrian rebels, now in an open alliance with al Qaeda, to continue their killing, with many people like Senator McCain suggesting that they now be armed, yet al Shabab can only be invited for peace talks if they lay down their weapons?

Why is Cameron not demanding the same of the Syrian rebels?

The government of Somalia has now called for military intervention.

As a conference on Somalia's future closed in London, the country's President appealed for bombing raids on the positions of al-Shabaab, which recently merged with al-Qa'ida. Sheikh Sharif Sheikh Ahmed said he would welcome air strikes against the "menace" of the insurgents, warning: "This isn't a Somali problem, it has to be addressed globally."

[source : Somali terrorists warn of reprisals on British streets, The Independent, 24/02/2012]

Al Shabab, now al Qaeda in Somalia, has subsequently warned of reprisals on the streets of Great Britain if they are attacked.

Islamist fighters in Somalia last night warned of deadly reprisals on Britain's streets if the West mounted military action in the war-torn east African state.

...Last night the spokesman for the Islamist group, Sheikh Ali Dhere, warned it could launch terror attacks in the West if countries such as Britain and the US intervened in Somalia. "Your peace depends upon us being left alone," he told Channel 4 News. "If you do not let us live in peace, you will not enjoy peace either."

[source : Somali terrorists warn of reprisals on British streets, The Independent, 24/02/2012]

So because of Cameron's double standards there is now the grave possibility that we will attack Somalia, innocent Somali children could die, and in response a possible terrorist attack on Britain's street by Islamic extremists (may be false flag like 7/7) could kill innocent children over here.

If this happens, can we prosecute Cameron for manslaughter? Or to be more accurate, childslaughter?

And we are fully aware of Cameron's double standards. Not one banker has been prosecuted for wrecking the economy and they can still gamble in the hundreds of trillions in fraudulent derivatives, while a man who stole a bottle of water gets a year in prison.

THE SOMALIA QUICKENING

Sky News says that it has been informed by intelligence sources that some of the weapons that went missing from Libya (after NATO helped their on-off lovers al Qaeda by bombing and bombing and bombing and bombing and bombing and bombing Libyan civilians to death so that al Qaeda could torture and kill black Africans and former government officials) have found their way into the hands of...oopsadaisy! al Qaeda in Somalia, al Shabab!

Somalia's hard line Islamist rebels are reported to have taken delivery of up to 30 surface-to-air missiles smuggled to them from Libya since the fall of Muammar Gaddafi.

...They could be used against commercial airliners in revenge for recent advances by African Union (AU) forces from Uganda and Burundi who have driven the Shabab out of the Somali capital, Mogadishu.

...The former Libyan leader had stockpiles of hundreds of surface-to-air missiles - very few of which were accounted for after the chaos of the revolution which deposed him.

[source : Somali Rebels 'Get Hold Of Gaddafi Missiles', Sky News, 23/02/2012]

Isn't that handy for al Qaeda?

And isn't that handy for NATO?

Those missiles could be anywhere!

It is becoming painfully obvious, more and more, day by day, that the plan mentioned to General Wesley Clark shortly after 9/11 is being implemented.

Seven nations in five years was the plan.

Iraq (2003).
Lebanon (2005).
Sudan (2005).
Libya (2011).

That's four down.

Only three remain; Syria, Iran and Somalia.

The warmongering with Iran and Syria is painfully obvious.

During the last week the demonisation of Somalia has quickened at a disturbing rate.

Now there is open talk of invading Somalia because it is run by al Qaeda who now have Gaddafi's weapons.

But didn't we just help al Qaeda into power in Libya?

Aren't we just about to assist al Qaeda into power in Syria?

Yet we are supposed to invade Somalia because al Qaeda is in power?!

Perhaps we are not supposed to question this contradiction. Perhaps we are supposed to simply mong out in front of the TV watching moronic Z list celebrities writhing in agony in a tank of worms and scary-looking insects?

I hope it is crystal clear to you all now.

They at the least allowed 9/11, the "new Pearl Harbor" that PNAC and their warmongering warmongers wanted, to go on a global rampage, hoping to attack Iraq and Iran (as proposed in Rebuilding America's Defenses and A Clean Break), and adding the above named extra states, which were added for whatever reason, probably natural resources and/or to empower the IMF.

But I still believe that they are trying to start WW3 through Israel in whatever capacity they can get to work to spark it all off; Israeli attack on Iran, false flag terror attack blamed on Iran, etc.

ps Webster Tarpley recently told us about "bigwigs" being warned against air travel in March. Now al Qaeda in Somalia are reported to have Gaddafi's SAMs just when they want to invade Somalia. Hmmm.

IT'S SOMALIA TIME

Continuing the refocus of attention onto Somalia, the FT editorial today appeals to the conference on Somalia being held in London today to agree on military action on "al-Shabaab, the jihadist militia that controls large swaths of territory".

An express recognition is needed from neighbours, donors and the UN that this has been a failure and that Somalia needs something better.

This must set the stage for greater international consensus on a better approach – between other African countries, the west and interested powers such as Turkey. This requires mutual understanding on military issues including the intentions of the invading forces or the conditions under which the west launches air attacks against al-Shabaab.

[source : Solving Somalia, FT, 23/02/2012]

"military issues"?

"invading forces"?

"the west launches air attacks"?

Sound familiar?

SOMALIA COMING INTO THE CROSSHAIRS

Last week Cameron named Somalia in the same category as Syria and Iran; apparently they are of vital interest to the empires of Great Britain and France.

Lord Malloch Brown, Soros' handler, has today written in the FT that Somalia can be compared to Afghanistan.

Afghanistan!

Malloch Brown even tries to scare us with this statement.

One think tank claims there are currently around 50 British nationals undergoing terrorist training in Somalia. It took far fewer than that to bring down the World Trade Center Towers and a wing of the Pentagon.

[source : Somalia’s parallels with Afghanistan mean the world must act, FT, 22/02/2012]

Malloch Brown suggests that the R2P means we should get into Somalia and sort the current government out.

So why is Somalia placed in the same category as Syria and Iran?

All three are named on a list given to General Wesley Clark and they have yet to see their governments overthrown or replaced.

But why Somalia?

Perhaps this is the answer.

Moreover, Somalia is an easy target for the Western war machines, as the country does not have huge military infrastructure or any alliance to deter foreign intervention, and that the country has already been hit by civil wars, famine and natural disasters.

Somalia also has immense oil and gas reserves and some other natural resources like Uranium, iron and zinc. According to World Bank Somalia is the second African country with vast unexploited oil reserves. Puntland Province alone is able to produce between 5 and 10 billion barrels of oil.

Hmmm. I wonder if MB will be citing the R2P as Greece sinks ever deeper into Bilderberg fascist austerity, and people are dying on the streets through lack of food and/or shelter. I doubt it. The R2P is only to be used when NATO foments a civil war, such as in Libya and now Syria, and I would say with the media beginning to focus much more on it, Somalia too could soon be receiving deliveries of love bombs from Santa NATO (or NATO Claus, which ever one you think works best).

HANG A BANKER A WEEK

In response to Ken Livingston's suggestion that we "hang a banker a week until the others improve"[1], here is an amended version of Hang The DJ by The Smiths.

Riots on the streets of London
Riots on the streets of Birmingham
I wonder to myself

Could life ever be sane again?
The Leeds side-streets that you slip down
I wonder to myself

Hopes may rise on the Grasmere
But honey pie, you're not safe here
So you run down
To the safety of the town

But there's riots on the streets of Carlisle
Dublin, Dundee, Humberside
I wonder to myself

Burn down the City
Hang the bastard bankers
To stop the frauds that they constantly play
Everything they do screws up my life
Hang the bastard bankers
To stop the frauds that they constantly play

On the Leeds side-streets that you slip down
The provincial towns you jog 'round
Hang the bankers, Hang the bankers, Hang the bankers
Hang the bankers, Hang the bankers, Hang the bankers
Hang the bankers, Hang the bankers, Hang the bankers
Hang the bankers,
Hang the bankers,
Hang the bankers,
Hang the bankers,
Hang the bankers,
Hang the bankers,
Hang the bankers,

A FALSE FLAG TERROR WARNING FROM TARPLEY

During his World Crisis Radio of 18th February Webster Tarpley issued a warning for the first few weeks of March. Apparently "bigwigs" are being warned not to fly during that time period.

Readers of this blog should be aware that I think the blockbuster movie Pearl Harbor was made not only to remind America in a very graphic and very emotional way of the Pearl Harbor attack in 1941 in preparation for the "new Pearl Harbor" on 9/11, but also to rub it in our faces. This film is now being shown frequently on Freeview. It may be nothing, but the timing of this and Tarpley's warning is curious.

Another 9/11-style attack would almost certainly provide the warmongers with the perfect excuse to attack Iran. Remember that it took them 18 months from 9/11 to the war on Iraq. And warnings are beginning to come more frequently, now even from Navy Seals. And the FBI recently saved us all from total catastophe when they arrested their own patsy who they had been grooming for months and in a blaze of publicity stopped him from attacking the Capitol with a dud vest.

A FUNNY THING HAPPENED ON THE WAY TO THE REPUBLICAN NOMINATION 2012

And the funny thing has happened to Ron Paul.

Paul is so obviously being cut out of media coverage on the Republican nomination for 2012.

So compare these apparently contrasting events regarding Ron Paul.

1. Webster Tarpley has been questioning Paul's allegiance to the US constitution, referencing a speech that Paul gave many years ago about not having anything to fear from globalisation and a global currency, and also suggesting that Paul and Romney are converging. In his World Crisis Radio show of 18th February Tarpley reminded us that a member of the Bilderberg Steering Committee Peter Thiel recently donated a substanial amount of cash to the superpac called Endorse Liberty that is supporting Ron Paul. According to OpenSecrets Thiel is registered as donating $900,000, but other reports suggest that this was on behalf of PayPal rather than a personal donation.

2. the BBC has barely reported on anything that Ron Paul has had to say in any debate or indeed in any press conference of whatever kind. But for whatever reason, in a recent Panorama programme on the state of the welfare safety net, homelessness and healthcare in the USA, Paul (the doctor) was shown in a debate blaming those who were sick and close to death as bringing it upon themselves and they should not be helped, thus portraying Paul (the doctor) as cruel and heartless. The aim of the programme was to question how Obama has implemented the promises he made upon becoming President, but towards the end of the programme a member of the Democratic Party is shown defending Obama, suggesting that Obama just had too much to do in so little time and could not get everything done (but he managed to find time to bail out Wall Street with trillions).

If the $900,000 donation to Endorse Liberty was on behalf of PayPal then the fact that Thiel is on the Bilderberg Steering Committee may not be that significant. But if it was a personal donation then this implies to me three possibilities.
1. they are trying to paint Paul with the Bilderberg brush,
2. they are trying to buy Paul
3. they are trying to force a Romney/Paul ticket to get the anti-war votes for Romney but if elected ignore the anti-war movement and plough on with endless bloody imperial fascist wars.

We are where we are.

The perfect candidate for all will never exist.

Tarpley raises some very valid questions, but if Paul is our only hope of stopping the US warmongering that could very well lead to WW3 then he is the man.

Stop the wars first.

Then argue about economic policies in a peaceful environment.

HAS NUMBNUTS UNWITTINGLY CONFIRMED WESLEY CLARK'S ALLEGATION?

We should all by now be fully aware that after the inside job on 9/11 The Pentagon was ordered to draw up plans to overthrow the governments of seven countries in five years.

The countries that were listed by General Wesley Clark were

Iraq
Iran
Lebanon
Syria
Sudan
Somalia
Libya

Iraq was invaded in 2003 on the false pretext that it was involved in 9/11 and had WMDs that could strike your backyard barbecue in 45 minutes. Both allegations were false, and even if Iraq had WMD they got them from us.

In 2005 the Prime Minister of Lebanon Rafik Hariri was assassinated. The Special Tribunal for Lebanon initially blamed Syria, who promptly withdrew its military from Lebanon in the Cedar Revolution. Those initial allegations were proven false, and the STL has since blamed Hezbollah. But Hezbollah accuses Israel after Hezbollah intercepted communications from an Israeli drone that was illegally flying over Beirut following Hariri's movements very closely shortly before Hariri was assassinated.

Sudan has seen a civil war and has been partitioned into two, North and South Sudan.

Last year NATO was given the responsibility by the UN in UN SCR 1973 to protect Libyan civilians from Gaddafi, after NATO Special Forces allied with al Qaeda had fomented a civil war. Instead of protecting civilians NATO bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed and bombed Libya, particularly Tripoli, so that lawless, racist, torturing, genocidal al Qaeda militia could rape and murder black Libyan africans, and then...oopsadaisy, Gaddafi was assassinated.

So that's four out of the seven.

The three left are Iran, Syria and Somalia.

The warmongering on Syria and Iran is painfully obvious.

The one country that has always troubled me is Somalia. It has seen some sort of trouble, but nowhere near the level of Iraq or Libya.

But is this because Somalia, not Iran, is the last name on the list?

David Cameron was recently in France to meet with his sidekick Sarkozy. Speaking at a press conference yesterday, Cameron said this

"I don't think that there has been closer French-British co-operation at any time since the Second World War, not just in Libya but also on the vital issues of Syria, Iran, Somalia, and defense cooperation."

[source : Sarkozy and Cameron Draft War Plans, LPAC, 18/02/2012]

Why is Somalia a "vital issue"?

Little old Somalia, with a small pirate problem, is such a "vital issue" to the two empires of France and Great Britain?

This is perhaps a confirmation (as if we needed one) that the plan given to General Wesley Clark is being oh so slowly but oh so horribly, for those affected, implemented.

So it is absolutely crystal clear that Russia Today should report on this plan immediately.

THE SENTENCING OF THE BLAZING UNDERPANTS BOMBER

The Blazing Underpants Bomber, aka Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab, was yesterday sentenced to jail fo rlife without parole.

Abdulmutallab was at first going to contest, and named a lawyer called Kurt Haskell as a witness. Haskell was prepared to testify that he saw a man in a tan suit get Abdulmutallab onto the plane without any documentation.

Here is a snapshot of what our media said about this sentencing.

Nigerian Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab was on a suicide mission for al Qaeda when he attempted to detonate a bomb in his underpants as the plane, en route from Amsterdam, approached Detroit.

[source : 'Unrepentant would-be mass murderer': Underwear bomber jailed for life without parole for failed Christmas Day plane attack, The Daily Mail, 17/02/2012]

A US federal judge has ordered life in prison for a Nigerian man who turned away from a privileged life and tried to blow up an international airplane with nearly 300 people during a suicide mission for al-Qaida.

...Earlier, four passengers and a crew member aboard Flight 253 told US district judge Nancy Edmunds that the event forever changed their lives.

[source : 'Underwear bomber' Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab handed life sentence, The Guardian, 16/02/2012]

Handing down multiple life sentences, US District Judge Nancy Edmunds criticised the Nigerian al-Qaeda sympathiser for failing to show remorse, adding: "This is a just punishment."

Earlier, passengers and crew on Fight 253 from Amsterdam gave dramatic testimony about the moment Abdulmutallab attempted to set light to explosives smuggled in his underwear minutes before landing in Detroit on Christmas Day 2009.

...At an earlier hearing, he admitted being an al-Qaeda operative, and that he had carried out the plot to blow up the plane minutes before it landed at Detroit Metropolitan Airport on behalf of the terror group.

[source : God is great, says underpants bomber as he is jailed for life, The Daily Telegraph, 16/02/2012]

A Nigerian who tried to blow up an international flight near Detroit on behalf of al-Qa'ida started a life sentence without parole today.

...Federal Judge Nancy Edmunds announced the sentence in a crowded courtroom which included some passengers from Northwest Airlines Flight 253.

Earlier, four passengers and a crew member told Judge Edmunds that the event changed their lives forever.

[source : Underwear bomber Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab begins life term, The Independent, 17/02/2012]

Before sentencing in Michigan victims of a crime can speak for upto 5 minutes about the impact the crime had on their lives. This is referenced in the above quotes from our media.

But one victim is not mentioned. And he is the most important because he was going to testify on behalf of Abdulmutallab.

So what does Haskell have to say that is so important but is ignored by our media?

He saw Abdulmutallab be assisted onto the plane by a man in a tan suit!

Here is what Haskell said before sentencing. NB no British media reported on Haskell's statement. When you read it you will understand why.

I wish to thank the Court for allowing me these 5 minutes to make my statement. My references to the government in this statement refer to the Federal Government excluding this Court and the prosecution. On Christmas Day 2009, my wife and I were returning from an African safari and had a connecting flight through Amsterdam. As we waited for our flight, we sat on the floor next to the boarding gate. What I witnessed while sitting there and subsequent events have changed my life forever. While I sat there, I witnessed Umar dressed in jeans and a white t-shirt, being escorted around security by a man in a tan suit who spoke perfect American English and who aided Umar in boarding without a passport. The airline gate worker initially refused Umar boarding until the man in the tan suit intervened. The event meant nothing to me at the time. Little did I know that Umar would try to kill me a few hours later as our flight approached Detroit. The final 10 minutes of our flight after the attack were the worst minutes of my life. During those 10 minutes I sat paralyzed in fear. Unfortunately, what happened next has had an even greater impact on my life and has saddened me further.

When we landed, I was shocked that our plane taxied up to the gate. I was further shocked that we were forced to sit on the plane for 20 minutes with powder from the so called bomb all over the cabin. The officers that boarded the plane did nothing to ensure our safety and did not check for accomplices or other explosive devices. Several passengers trampled through parts of the bomb as they exited the plane. We were then taken into the terminal with our unchecked carry on bags. Again, there was no concern for our safety even though Umar told the officers that there was another bomb on board as he exited the plane. I wondered why nobody was concerned about our safety, accomplices or other bombs and the lack of concern worried me greatly. I immediately told the FBI my story in order to help catch the accomplice I had seen in Amsterdam. It soon became obvious that the FBI wasn’t interested in what I had to say, which upset me further. For one month the government refused to admit the existence of the man in the tan suit before changing course and admitting his existence in an ABC News article on January 22, 2010. That was the last time the government talked about this man. The video that would prove the truth of my account has never been released. I continue to be emotionally upset that the video has not been released. The Dutch police, meanwhile, in this article (show article), also confirmed that Umar did not show his passport in Amsterdam which also meant that he didn’t go through security as both are in the same line in Amsterdam. It upsets me that the government refuses to admit this fact.

I became further saddened from this case, when Patrick Kennedy of the State Department during Congressional hearings, admitted that Umar was a known terrorist, was being followed, and the U.S. allowed him into the U.S. so that it could catch Umar’s accomplices. I was once again shocked and saddened when Michael Leiter of the National Counter terrorism Center admitted during these same hearings that intentionally letting terrorists into the U.S. was a frequent practice of the U.S. Government. I cannot fully explain my sadness, disappointment and fear when I realized that my government allowed an attack on me intentionally.

During this time, I questioned if my country intentionally put a known terrorist onto my flight with a live bomb. I had many sleepless nights over this issue. My answer came shortly thereafter. In late 2010, the FBI admitted to giving out intentionally defective bombs to the Portland Christmas Tree Bomber,the Wrigley Field Bomber and several others. Further, Mr. Chambers was quoted in the Free Press on January 11, 2011 when he indicated that the government’s own explosives experts had indicated that Umar’s bomb was impossibly defective. I wondered how that could be. Certainly, I thought, Al Qaeda wouldn’t go through all of the trouble to plan such an attack only to provide the terrorist with an impossibly defective bomb.

I attended nearly all of the pretrial hearings. At the hearing on January 28, 2011, I was greatly disappointed by the prosecution’s request to block evidence from Mr. Chambers “as it could then be able to be obtained by third parties, who could use it in a civil suit against the government”. It really bothered me that the government apparently was admitting to wrongdoing of some kind as it admitted that it was concerned it would be sued. It further upset me to know that the government was putting its own interests ahead of those of the passengers.

When I attended the jury selection hearings, I questioned why versions of the same two questions kept coming up, those being:

1. Do you think you’ll be able to tell whether something is actually a bomb? and
 2. Do you realize that sometimes the media doesn’t always tell the truth?

I continued to be greatly saddened at this point as I felt the truth continued to be hidden.

When Umar listed me as his only witness, I was happy to testify, not on his behalf, but on behalf of the truth. I never expected to testify, as my eyewitness account would have been too damaging to the myth that the government and media are putting forward. A mere 5 days after I was announced as a witness, there was an inexplicable guilty plea which exasperated me as I no longer would be testifying.

In closing I will just say that regardless of how the media and government try to shape the public perception of this case, I am convinced that Umar was given an intentionally defective bomb by a U.S. Government agent and placed on our flight without showing a passport or going through security, to stage a false terrorist attack to be used to implement various government policies.

The effect this matter has had on my life has been astounding and due to this case, I will never trust the government in any matter, ever.

In regards to sentencing, nothing I’ve said excuses the fact that Umar tried to kill me. He has waived his valid claim to the entrapment defense. Umar, you are not a great Muslim martyr, you are merely a “Patsy”. I ask the court to impose the mandatory sentence.

[source : BREAKING: Kurt Haskell Exposes Government False Flag Operation During Underwear Bomber Sentencing, PrisonPlanet.com, 16/02/2012]

So al Qaeda bomber Abdulmutallab was helped onto the plane by US government agents to detonate a bomb to cause false terror so that unpopular US government policies could be implemented, particularly the TSA gropers and death ray scanners.

If you are still sceptical, or sitting on the fence, about the NATO and al Qaeda love-ins in Afghanistan, Yugoslavia, Libya and Syria, just think about Haskell's statement.

PENSIONS AND INSURANCE

I have noticed recently a surge in adverts for easy insurance. Michael Parkinson and other celebrities talk to us in adverts about this insurance plan or that insurance plan, but all have one thing in common; YOU ARE GUARANTEED TO BE ACCEPTED!

There are also an increasing number of similar schemes for pets.

And also private pensions, in which if you pay some into a private pension then so does not only your employer but the government does too.

All this money goes to private pension or insurance provider, i.e. a City of London financial institution.

Before this you had to go through loads of medical and fitness tests before you could be accepted onto a life insurance plan. Not any more.

Does this make sense?

It looks to me like they are keen to get your money now because they know they won't have to pay out later.

And they won't have to pay out later because at the top they know there is going to be a big terrible war.

They just want your money now to keep the system going until the war is over, many of us are dead and the satanic world government takes over.

OBAMA'S ALLIANCE WITH AL QAEDA

I agree with this short video from LPAC, but have the following question; did they deliberately destroy the global financial system by allowing Lehman and others to go under, or was it all accidental?

The military campaign in the Middle East appears to be following the Rebuilding America's Defenses plan, with a few stops on the way such as Libya and Syria, as stated by General Wesley Clark. So why would they stop in Libya and Syria along the way to Iran, waste time, and allow more and more to understand and react to their criminality, and now in Syria openly ally themselves with public enemy number one, al Qaeda?

I would say that they are getting more and more desperate by the day, if not by the hour.

And I shall question this in another blog later today.

Anyway, here is LPACs Obama's Alliance with al Qaeda

ONWARDS, LIARS OF SYRIA

Ayman al-Zawahiri, the alleged leader of al Qaeda, recently encouraged the overthrow of the Assad government in Syria, saying

"Onwards, lions of Syria,"

Today The Daily Telegraph has regurgitated the allegation that Iran and al Qaeda are ganging up to bomb The Olympics.

The Islamic regime, which was accused of attempting to assassinate Israeli diplomats in three countries this week, is seeking to expand the network of Western enemies it assists, officials believe.

As a result, Tehran has loosened restrictions on high level al–Qaeda operatives under its controls as well as offering financing and training to the terrorist group's senior planners.

Security experts said that recent intelligence suggested Iran and al–Qaeda could attempt to find a common project in Europe, possibly targeting the London Olympics, which opens in July.

[source : Iran strengthening ties with al–Qaeda, say intelligence chiefs, The Daily Telegraph, 16/02/2012]

I addressed the absurdity of this allegation yesterday. What we are being asked to believe is that
1. al Qaeda helps to overthrow Assad in Syria, leaving Iran totally isolated, then
2. Iran helps al Qaeda to bomb the Olympics giving NATO the perfect excuse to start war on an isolated Iran.

Maybe it is just me, but this is beyond ridiculous.

It is much more plausible that
1. al Qaeda has been ordered into Syria to bring down Assad to leave Iran isolated,
2. then there is a false flag attack, possibly on The Olympics, to be blamed on Iran so that NATO can start war on Iran.

al Qaeda and NATO have worked together in Afghanistan, Yugoslavia and Libya. We are told that the events of 9/11 were "blow back", but given that 9/11 provided "the new Pearl Harbor" that PNAC and others wanted to go on a world warmongering rampage, and given that there is plenty of evidence that the alleged hijackers were working for NATO intelligence in some way, then the suggestion that 9/11 was "blow back" is as ludicrous as this suggestion that Iran and al Qaeda are new partners-in-terrorism.

9/11 was an inside job. No ifs. No buts.

9/11 was an inside job.

That's why NATO and al Qaeda in Libya worked together so well last year.

Al Qaeda and NATO are one and the same, a branch of the global criminal network that runs drugs, guns, terror and slavery, and interlocks with the money-laundering, fraudulent and bankrupt network of banks in Wall Street and The City of London.

They want Syria out of the way to get at Iran, and they want it done asap.

And if that means bringing the al Qaeda/NATO love-in into public view then they are getting desperate. They are behind schedule. Gaddafi held them up for much longer than they wanted.

But are we being prepared for a false flag attack on The Olympics?

BLAMING IRAN

We all know Iran is the eventual target of the ongoing warmongering and NED-sponsored revolutions backed up with NATO weaponry.

Iran has been named as a target
1. in PNAC's Rebuilding America's Defenses
2. in Israel's A Clean Break
3. on a list of seven nations to be invaded in five years given to General Wesley Clark
4. by Henry Kissinger and George Soros

Iran is under intense scrutiny and is walking on eggshells.

So what are we being asked to believe is occuring now? That Iran is on a rampage of global terror, just at the time when Israel and the USA are trying to provoke Iran into making the first overt move to give them the excuse to start war.

So is it possible that someone is trying to frame Iran?

ANOTHER PRETEXT TO WAGE WAR? The Fingerprints of False Flags Against Iran. The Thailand, India, Georgia Terrorist Bomb Blasts

by Finian Cunningham


Global Research, February 15, 2012

Have American and Israeli efforts to pin international terrorism on Iran just gone global? A series of bomb attacks apparently on Israeli diplomats in India and Georgia are now being linked with blasts in the Thai capital, Bangkok, for which it is reported that three Iranian men have been arrested.

Israel is claiming that the explosive devices recovered in Thailand are the same “sticky bombs” that were used in the attacks in New Delhi and Tbilisi, and that is proof that an Iranian terror network is conducting an assassination campaign against its foreign diplomats.

“The attempted terrorist attack in Bangkok proves once again that Iran and its proxies continue to perpetrate terror,” said Ehud Barak, Israel’s defence minister.

Thai police have named one of the men injured in the blasts on Tuesday in Bangkok as an Iranian national. It is reported that two other men arrested, one in the Thai capital and another detained after he flew to Malaysia, are also Iranian.

The Thai authorities have so far declined to comment on claims that the group is part of an international terror network. The assailants in the Indian and Georgian attacks are unknown. However, Israel has claimed that those apparent assassination attempts against its diplomats on Monday in New Delhi and Tbilisi were the work of Iranian-linked Hezbollah, operating out of Lebanon.

Israeli claims echo long-standing assertions by Washington and Tel Aviv that Iran is a sponsor of international terrorism. At the end of last year, the US government claimed that it had uncovered an Iranian plot to assassinate Saudi Arabia’s ambassador in Washington. The latter alleged plot has been widely scoffed at for its outlandish circumstances involving an Iranian used car salesman in cahoots with a Mexican drug cartel to carry out the murder bid at a restaurant in the US capital.

Nevertheless, the latest incidents this week will doubtless fuel repeated assertions by Western governments that Iran is a “rogue state” presenting a threat to international security, in particular with regard to harbouring sinister “nuclear weapons ambitions”. Taken together, it purports to justify the US/NATO/Israeli war plans towards Iran. It is believed that Washington has given Israeli a tacit green light to launch pre-emptive military strikes against the Islamic Republic. In this context, the latest claims emanating from Tel Aviv that its foreign diplomats are being targeted for assassination by Iran could provide a fatal trigger for long-held war plans.

But a closer look at the latest blast incidents raises serious questions about the credibility of such claims, and indeed could suggest that they are part of a false flag campaign to set Iran up for imminent attack.

For a start the explosive devices apparently used in Thailand, India and Georgia were so-called sticky bombs, devices that can be magnetically attached to vehicles for targeted assassination of individuals. In the New Delhi attack, a motorcyclist rode up to the Israeli diplomat’s car and attached the bomb. In the Tbilisi incident, the device was apparently stuck underneath the vehicle’s chassis. None of the diplomats alleged targeted were seriously injured in the attacks.

But this method of assassination has been used previously with devastating effect in the murder of four Iranian nuclear scientists in separate attacks. The latest Iranian victim of assassination was 32-year-old Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan who was killed when motorcycle assailants planted a sticky bomb on his car in Tehran last month. The Iranian government has claimed with credible reasoning that the assassination campaign against its scientists is the work of American and Israeli intelligence. The American and Israeli use of Iranian nationals as proxy agents to execute such a campaign is a proven modus operandi.

Iran has strongly denied any involvement in the latest terror incidents in India, Georgia and Thailand, as well as the alleged bomb plot against the Saudi diplomat in Washington. There is plausible credibility in Iran’s denials. What would Iran gain from such action, only grief and trouble?

This is especially true with regard to India and Thailand. Both Asian countries have become major trading partners with Tehran in recent years. India, along with China, is Iran’s biggest customer for its vital oil industry.

Thailand is of growing importance as a trading partner with Iran for oil, mining, heavy industry, services, technology and agriculture especially after both countries set up a joint business council five years ago.

For Iran to carry out such attacks, as is being claimed, would be like shooting itself in the foot, particularly because both Asian countries have refused to join in the US-led campaign to isolate Iran economically and diplomatically.

Put the other way round, it is much more in the interest of Washington and Israel to destabilize relations between Iran and its Asian partners. The repercussions from the blasts in India would appear to be having that desired effect.

Take this Reuters reports: Up to now India has not gone along with new financial sanctions imposed by the United States and European Union to punish Iran over its disputed nuclear programme. Instead, New Delhi has come up with elaborate trade and barter arrangements to pay for oil supplies. However, the president of the All India Rice Exporters’ Association said Monday’s attack on the wife of an Israeli diplomat in the Indian capital will damage trade with Iran and may complicate efforts to resolve an impasse over Iranian defaults on payments for rice imports worth around $150 million. “The attack and its political fallout have clearly vitiated the atmosphere. Traders who were already losing money due to payment defaults will be extremely wary of continuing their trade with buyers in Iran,” Vijay Setia told Reuters.

So add it up. Bomb teams with proven US/Israeli assassination expertise and methodology; target countries that are major Iranian partners; desired effect of further isolating Iran internationally; and, to cap it all, a long sought-after pretext for Israel to attack Iran with America’s blessing.

When logic and facts coincide like this, it’s usually more prudent to engage in reason than to indulge in lurid claims.

PUTIN 2.0

In its editorial today the FT has urged Vladimir Putin to "modernise".

So what does "modernise" mean?

According to the FT,

Modernisation requires far more than overhauling Russia’s creaking, resource-dominated economy. It means, above all else, replacing the arbitrary and often corrupt rule of the Kremlin and local bureaucracies with the rule of law, reinforced by the checks and balances of a modern democracy. Russia faces numerous handicaps in making that transition – in its history, its culture, its mind-boggling vastness. But with nominal output per capita topping $13,000 last year, it is at the level where many other countries have achieved it.

Steering the country to this point is, for all the repellent aspects of his system, Mr Putin’s undoubted achievement. “Putin 2.0” must move to the next stage. Russia needs an independent, well-trained judiciary; a functioning, competitive parliament; and free media. These, in turn, could boost protection of property rights and begin to combat corruption. That could encourage foreign investment and help small businesses, outside the extractive industries, to start to flourish. In economic policy, Mr Putin would be well advised to adopt the detailed “Strategy 2020” plan drawn up at his request by experts last year.

[source : Time for Putin 2.0, FT, 15/02/2012]

Medvedev, the FT's Golden Boy, appears to have disappeared. He was enchanted by the Lizards of London, and received cuddles and glowing praise from them.

But there does seem to be a distrust and fear of Putin. Russia's economy is significantly dependent on the exploitation of its natural resources (which NWO corporations such as BP and ExxonMobil eventually got their grubby hands on last year). But the economies of the UK and USA are significantly dependent on the exploitation of bailouts. We produce very little, except for weapons, which make us the biggest exporters and users of weaponry in the world. It is therefore a bit rich for the FT to plead with Putin to "modernise" by opening up Russia to foreign investment. All the FT and their ilk want is to destroy Russia like a plague of locusts, leaving Russia decimated.

It is upto Russians, not satanist, corrupt and bankrupt bankers in Wall Street and The City of London, to use Russian natural resources how they want. And if Russians want to "modernise" then they should do it their own way, not the Wall Street and City of London way.

I mean, look at us now. Bankrupt, austerity everywhere and a growing police state, which in the USA is looking very very evil.

We are told that NATO is assisting/driving the Arab Spring so that people can exercise their right to self-determination. In fact, the Arab Spring is a NED/NATO operation to, at the least, overthrow governments and install new dictators.

The NED has recently tried to block Putin's reelection. It appears that the FT has conceded that they failed and that Putin will be elected.

LUDICROUS INCREDIBLE ALLEGATION BY ANONYMOUS INTELLIGENCE SOURCES THAT IRAN IS USING AL QAEDA

A ludicrous and incredible allegation has been made by anonymous intelligence sources to Sky News that al Qaeda is being used by Iran to attack targets in the West, including possibly the Olympic Games in London this year.

Al Zawahiri is believed to be planning a 'classic' al Qaeda attack, simultaneously on multiple locations, which would confirm the mantle he has assumed as the leader of the global jihad.

A source said: "Iran is the main route through which funding for the organisations is made, the main route for operatives to travel to Pakistan for training, and it is the only real way by which al Zawahiri can control and order a major attack."

The sources have no specific intelligence on what the al Qaeda target is, nor when it might be launched.

"We do know that an operation is under way. We assess that the most likely target is to be European. And the most obvious target in Europe for an attack that would attract a lot of attention would be the Olympic Games," a source said - stressing that this was only an 'assessment' and not based on any specific intelligence.

[source : Fears Iran Is Helping Al Qaeda Plot Atrocity, Sky News, 15/02/2012]

Perhaps al Qaeda are whoring themselves out to anyone, Langley and Vauxhall included.

These allegations come just days after al Zawahiri called for all muslims to overthrow Assad, Iran's major ally in the region, and amidst reports that al Qaeda in Iraq is now moving to Syria to overthrow Assad.

So why would al Qaeda help to overthrow Assad, Iran's major ally in the region, for NATO, and then be helped by Iran to attack the Olympic Games? The answer is not immediately clear to me. Perhaps there isn't one. Perhaps because it is all bollocks?

Can you see the problem I have with this?

What we are being asked to believe is this; al Qaeda overthrows Assad in Syria to leave Iran totally isolated, then Iran helps/uses al Qaeda to attack the West giving NATO the perfect excuse to attack Iran.

It is totally ludicrous and incredible!

So, with the undoubted fully documented relationship of love and friendship between al Qaeda and NATO intelligence I think it is much much more likely that the attempt to link Iran and al Qaeda is total bollocks. There have been many attempts to link Iran and al Qaeda, usually reports that the (already dead for several years) Osama bin Laden was living it up in Tehran.

But I am concerned that the Olympic Games are being mentioned as a possible target for al Qaeda. If war on Iran, perhaps Syria, has not started by the time the Games begin then a state-sponsored attack, another 7/7-style perhaps, on the Olympics would serve the purpose of getting the general public behind the drive to WW3.

ISRAEL TRAINS MOTORCYCLISTS TO STICK BOMBS TO CARS

Jeff Steinberg at LPAC wrote last week about a member of MeK in Iran who confessed he was trained by Mossad for a month in Israel to be trained how to stick bombs on cars while on a motorcycle.

NBC News has broken the story that the Israeli Mossad has been recruiting and training members of the terrorist Mujahideen e-Khalq (MEK) to carry out assassinations and bombings inside Iran. The report was corroborated by several Obama Administration officials, and was based on an interview with Mohamad Javad Larijani, the brother of Speaker of the Majlis Ali Larijani and a close personal friend of the Supreme Leader Khamenei. Larijani was interviewed by NBC’s Brian Williams, and he reported that Iranian officials had caught an MEK member, attempting to assassinate an Iranian physicist. Under interrogation, the would-be assassin confessed that he had been recruited by the Mossad in Ankara, Turkey and had been sent to Israel for one month of training, to prepare him for the targeted assassination. According to Larijani, the Israelis specifically trained the MEK recruit on how to plant a “sticky bomb” onto a car, while passing on a motorcycle—the modus operandi for several recent assassinations of Iranian scientists involved with their nuclear program.

Yesterday a car was set ablaze in New Delhi, India after several eye witnesses reported a motorcyclist sticking a device to the car. The occupant of the car was the wife of Israel's defence attache in India. Israel accused Iran.

India is still investigating the terrorist act, and has so far not blamed anyone but has said the act was perpertrated by a "very well-trained person".

Indian Home Minister Palaniappan Chidambaram said Tuesday that the attack against an Israeli diplomatic car in New Delhi was carried out by a "very well-trained person."

[source : India: 'Well-trained person' behind terror attack at Israeli embassy, Haaretz, 14/02/2012]

However, it is possible that this particular act of terrorism was perpertrated by someone wanting to provoke Israel into accusing Iran, or to make it look like Israel did it.

NATO ADMITS IT MURDERS CHILDREN

NATO has admitted it murdered 8 children in the North East Afghanistan provice of Karisa.

It's not the first time.

And it won't be the last.

================================
From http://www.presstv.ir/detail/226480.html

The US-led NATO forces in Afghanistan have admitted that Afghan children have been killed in last week's bombing raid in the northeast province of Kapisa.


Spokesman for the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) Brigadier General Carsten Jacobson said on Monday that an assessment showed there were “young Afghans of varying ages” among the victims of the attacks.

Following the February 8 airstrikes, Afghan President Hamid Karzai ordered an investigation.

Mohammad Tahir Safi, a member of parliament for Kapisa and part of the investigation team dispatched by Karzai, explained that children gathered to start a fire when "all of a sudden a plane dropped one bomb in first round and another bomb later."

"There were eight people and all innocent children and you can see their pictures," he said, showing pictures of bloodied children in shrouds.

The dead were aged between six and 14, with "another guy aged about 18 to 20" who was mentally ill, Safi said.

The Afghan president has regularly condemned the US-led foreign forces for civilian deaths in the US-led decade-long invasion of Afghanistan.

WHY DOES RUSSIA TODAY NOT SHOW THE VIDEOS OF GENERAL WESLEY CLARK SPILLING THE BEANS ABOUT SEVEN NATIONS IN FIVE YEARS?

RT has not yet reported on the case of Robert Green, which is very disappointing.

It could redeem itself and stop the current warmongering by reporting on what General Wesley Clark has said and written.

SNIPERS OF SYRIA

It looks like NATO media has dropped the use of children in trying to get us to support an invasion of Syria, and has now adopted the use of snipers.

Sky is now reporting that Syria is under constant fire from Syrian government snipers.

How do they know the snipers are Syrian government?

Snipers in Syria were reported by Webster Tarpley when he was in Syria last year. But they weren't government snipers. They were masked snipers dressed in black. The pictures Sky showed were of a man in uniform without a mask. Tarpley said the Syrians he spoke to wanted the Syrian military on the roofs to stop the snipers. The use of anonymous sniping is documented in John Pilger's The War on Democracy. In a coup against Chavez in Venezuela a few years ago the (privately owned) media showed civilians under fire from snipers and alleged the snipers were from the Venezuelan military. It was later shown the snipers were from the Venezuelan military but were part of the coup, i.e. defectors, deserters, traitors. So is that same tactic being used in Syria now? Hell, yes!

I would thoroughly recommend watching Pilger's The War on Democracy. It shows how the USA was involved in the revolutions in Latin America, from Venezuela to Chile.

All I can say is they are demented sick torturing murdering fascists. And they want the same for Syria; torture, executions, economic shock therapy, poverty, fascism.

And Russia Today has today questioned the use of the aerial photographs of heavy military equipment we were shown last week. We were told it showed the Syrian military preparing to invade Homs and slaughter the civilians there. It was also alleged that gas masks were being distributed in preparation for the use of chemical warfare agents. As yet no such invasion and slaughter has been reported.

On the other hand it has been reported that a Syrian General was assassinated outside his house in Damascus, that al Qaeda in Iraq has joined the fight with the Syrian rebs and that the alleged leader of al Qaeda Ayman al-Zawahiri has issued a call to overthrow the Syrian government.

It's a jungle out there. Whether you like it or not, you are engaged in an information war. What appears to be one thing is usually something completely different.

Is it a will-they-won't-they love story like the BBC sitcom Just Good Friends?

Or is it a Last of the Summer Wine-type sitcom?

Whatever. It is a comedy, and the worst and most corrupt comedy at that.

Can you imagine them years from today, sat on a park bench quietly? Or will they be causing civil war, terrorism and bloody mayhem to the benefit of NATO and The New World Order?

Resign, dude.

Just resign.

It's dead easy.

No embarrasing impeachment.

No one will bother.

So you resigned. So what?

You (allegedly) protected and defended America and the Constitution, but you want to spend more time with your family, write a few articles.

And you didn't send America into WW3!

BOMBSHELL INTERVIEW OF LYNDON LAROUCHE

I have just listened to the interview of Lyndon LaRouche last night by Alex Jones.

It was a very good interview, I thought.

AND WHAT A BOMBSHELL LAROUCHE DROPPED!

I don't know whether it was noticed or ignored, but at 22:30 into the interview below LaRouche begins to drop the bombshell. He eventually admits that FDR allowed the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbour!!

From http://larouchepac.com/node/21527


WTF!!

LaRouche said FDR allowed the Japanese to attack Pearl Harbour; first to mobilise the United States into war, and second because the US military at Pearl Harbour and elsewhere were not going to do anything to stop it anyway!

At the moment I am stunned.

The implications of this statement are at the moment massive. For example I think it was Webster Tarpley(?) who said it was British-allied Wall Street bankers, such as Train, who immediately accused FDR of allowing Pearl Harbour. I shall have to confirm that.

BUT THIS IS MASSIVE.

And I have just had a brainwave about the alleged Albert Pike three-world-war plan, that I am slowly clarifying in my head.

DO THE INTERNATIONAL MEGA FASCISTS (IMF) WANT THEIR GRUBBY HANDS ON THE SYRIAN STATE?

Stephen Gowans has written a thought-provoking article about the current intrigue in Syria. Gowans argues that Syria is not opening up its state to the US corporations, and is also an ally of Hezbollah which threatens the Zionist State of Israel, and that this is enough for the US and Israel to replace the government of Syria with one that is more "interconnected".

Apart from Syria’s irritating Washington by allying with Iran, backing Hezbollah, and providing material assistance to Palestinian national liberation movements, the country exhibits a tendency shared by all US regime change targets: a predilection for independent, self-directed, economic development. This is expressed in state-ownership of important industries, subsidies to domestic firms, controls on foreign investment, and subsidization of basic commodities. These measures restrict the profit-making opportunities of US corporations, banks and investors, and since it is their principals who hold sway in Washington, US foreign policy is accordingly shaped to serve their interests.

The US State Department complains that Syria has “failed to join an increasingly interconnected global economy,” which is to say, has failed to turn over its state-owned enterprises to private investors, among them Wall Street financial interests. The State Department is aggrieved that “ideological reasons” continue to prevent the Assad government from liberalizing Syria’s economy. As a result of the Ba’athists’ ideological fixation on socialism, “privatization of government enterprises is still not widespread.” The economy “remains highly controlled by the government.”

[source : Syria’s Uprising in Context, http://gowans.wordpress.com/, 10/2/2012]

A few years ago the IMF stated that it was preparing for the day in the not too distant future when it would run the global economy. The crisis in Europe has led the IMF to intervene and be given much more power. The IMF is now looking like it will get its grubby hands on Egypt. If Assad falls we can expect the IMF to get in there and carve up the Syrian state and open it up for the international mega fascists.

USING MY BOOKMARKS TO MAKE THREATS?

I just went to write another blog and could not find this page in My Bookmarks. I have created two other blogs, but do not currently write on them. I had all three blogs grouped together. The other two are still there, but The Truth Serum was not. But between the other two blogs was the page for The National Death Service, which writes about the NHS.

Take from that what you will.

Is that a threat? I was in a NHS hospital last summer for a week seriously ill.

Or is it just my computer playing up?

If it is a threat then it was probably my last blog, Terrorism in Aleppo, that angered someone. Remote access to my computer is possible.

TERRORISM IN ALEPPO

Nearly thirty people died and nearly two hundred were injured when what were apparently car bombs went off in Aleppo yesterday. It appears that at first the Free Syria Army (FSA) claimed responsibility, but an hour or so later accused the Syria government. The Syria government accused armed terrorist gangs, meaning probably the FSA.

So, as with all news reports coming out of Syria, who can we believe?

The BBC has added some more details in a report by Jim Muir.

The rebel Free Syrian Army said it was operating in the area at the time, but was not responsible for the blasts.

Col Malik al-Kurdi, the FSA's deputy leader, told BBC Arabic that it had been monitoring the activity of security forces personnel and members of the pro-government Shabiha militia inside a Military Intelligence compound and a riot police base in Aleppo on Friday morning.

"When they were gathering in a square to go to the mosques and repress demonstrations, two groups from the FSA targeted the two buildings with small arms and rocket-propelled grenade fire," he said.

"After violent clashes, there was an explosion inside the Military Intelligence building. At first we didn't know what it was, but we think it was the regime trying to stop the operation of the FSA," he added.

[source : Syria unrest: Aleppo bomb attacks 'kill 28', BBC, 10/2/2012]

So here al-Kurdi is at least admitting that the FSA did start an attack on the Syria Military with small arms and RPGs, then there were violent clashes, but he then alleges that the Syria Military then blew up its own buildings from inside.

Is this credible?

How many FSA were involved?

And is there any evidence, such as eye witness reports, of these "violent clashes" that al-Kurdi alleges took place?

Curiously, in his spoken interview, Muir does not mention that the FSA started an attack with RPGs but does say that activists said there were "suspicious movements by the security people shortly before the blasts leading them to believe something was going to happen". Muir is then asked how is it possible that cars could drive up to those locations, to which Muir replies "that is a question". But one of the locations affected yesterday was a public garden in which children were playing, and subsequently died.

So it is possible that the FSA started the attack with RPGs, then violent clashes took place, then Syria 'security people' placed car bombs (but drawing so much attention to themselves amidst the mayhem that the activists noticed it), then the car bombs went off, but the 'security people' then also blew up their own buildings.

Credible?

I cannot find evidence that "violent clashes" occured between FSA and the Syrian military just before the bombs went off. I think that if such clashes had occured and if the Syrian military had indeed blown up their own buildings then eye witness accounts of those attacks would have been reported by Syria state TV to make the accusations against the FSA much stronger because the FSA would have been shown as violent.

But what else do we know?

Through the last decade, whenever a car bomb went off, say in Iraq, a so-called terrorism expert would come on the news and tell us that car bombs are the trademark of al Qaeda.

So is there evidence that al Qaeda is in Syria? It is perhaps not insignificant that Aleppo is close to the border with Turkey. The al Qaeda dude, Belhaj, who ran the Libyan rebel army (with assistance from British Special Forces and NATO) was airlifted to Turkey with some of his gang to assist if not command the Free Syria Army, and many reports have confirmed his presence on the Syria/Turkey border.

And the presence of armed terrorist gangs was reported in the most recent report from the Arab League, which has been suppressed and barely reported in the British media. These armed terrorist gangs were reported to have blown up a bus killing women and children. The same report also accused the media of exaggerating if not making up reports of attacks by the Syrian military on civilians.

I am not saying the Syrian military are angels. But faced with armed gangs the British military would implement similar policies and tactics. Take Northern Ireland for example, a situation not too dissimilar to Syria; torture, murder, a biased judicial system. It all sounds depressingly too familiar.

Taking all of the above into account I would say that the FSA has no credibility on this one, and that the terrorism in Aleppo is probably the responsibility of the Syrian rebels.

Curiously our own media is not investigating the possibility of Aleppo being state sponsored terrorism too deeply, merely reporting the accusation of the FSA. Perhaps because such an investigation would inevitably lead all the way back to Langley and Vauxhall and expose the mother of all modern state sponsored terrorism, 9/11.

THE DEAD CHILDREN OF PAKISTAN AND GAZA

That Danny Abdel Dayem geezer has been shown on Sky News every half hour today reporting from Homs, shouting at the camera, "where is the frickin UN? where is the USA?", and showing some living breathing children who looked as though they may have been injured. I don't trust the guy. You cannot argue with some of the reports of established Sky and BBC reporters in Homs that there is some military action going on there, but not everything we are told happened did indeed happen.

Yesterday we were bombarded in the info war with reports that 18 babies had died in their incubators due to deliberate power cuts. Curiously, or perhaps not, the BBC and Sky seemed more concerned about the resignation of Fabio Capello and his possible replacement.

And still no pictures of the 18 dead babies.

But plenty of evidence that the report is just one more example of black propaganda. Both manifestations of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights cannot be trusted.

What cannot be denied is that NATO is killing children in Pakistan and Afghanistan as a result of unmanned drone attacks, and that during Operation Cast Lead in 2008/9 Israel killed approximately 1500 civilians in Gaza, many of whom were children.

Unfortunately there is not now, and there was not then, the desire to show similar pleas from Pakistan and Gaza to the UN and USA for intervention. And even if there were you can bet your last Euro that the USA would veto any criticism or call for cessation of hostilities.

As in all wars it is usually the civilians who suffer the most casualties, and in particular children.

So if it is found that British Special Forces are indeed involved with the Syrian rebs, in what ever capacity, how much responsibility should they take? Or is it all down to Hague, who signed off the use of BSF in Libya?

It is essential and imperative that Hague and/or Hammond be forced to make a statement in The House of Commons about the presence and activities of BSF in Syria.

Do we want our taxpayer money, at a time of brutal Bilderberg austerity, being used to foment a civil war in which innocent children are allegedly dying?

PROVOKING IRAN WITH CLAIMS ISRAEL TRAINED IRANIAN TERRORISTS

An apparently incredible but oh so believable allegation has been made that Israel is "training Iranian dissident activists to assassinate Iranian nuclear scientists", according to Haaretz.

Mossad officials are training Iranian dissident activists to assassinate Iranian nuclear scientists, a NBC News report citing U.S. officials said on Thursday. The report noted, however, that Washington was not directly involvement in the alleged attacks.

[source : Israel's Mossad trained assassins of Iran nuclear scientists, report says, Haaretz, 9/2/2012]

dissident activists?

Don't they mean terrorists?

Or is it because it is Israel it is not terrorism but dissent?

This is just another provocation to provoke Iran into firing the first (overt, public) shot.

SYRIA, DEAD BABIES AND INCUBATORS

There are reports today in The Daily Express[1] and The Independent[2] that 18 babies in incubators died in Homs yesterday.

Babies? Incubators?

Haven't we heard this before?

As I reminded you all a few days ago, the most blatant and brazen piece of black propaganda was created in 1990 when a 15 year old girl pretending to be a nurse from Kuwait spoke before the US Congress(!) and said she watched invading Iraqi soldiers toss ill babies out of their incubators and left them to die. The girl was lying. She was the daughter of the Kuwait Ambassador to the USA. And Iraq had been tricked into invading Kuwait following statements from US Ambassador to Iraq April Glaspie that the USA would not intervene if Iraq invaded Kuwait, who Iraq accused of slant drilling and stealing Iraqi oil.

It appears there are two manifestations of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR). Russia Today has addressed this oddity today[3], claiming that the SOHR run by Mousab Azzawi (syriahr.org) is less trustworthy than the SOHR run by Rami Abdul Rahman (syriahr.com) because the latter includes deaths of Syrian military at the hands of the armed terrorist gangs, as observed by the Arab League, therefore Rahman's SOHR gives a more balanced account of deaths.

But can we even trust Rahman's organisation?

This dead-babies-in-incubators story led me to find an investigation[4] from last year into a report of...guess what? Dead babies in incubators in Syria, and its shows the farce that is reporting from Syria.

Rahman's SOHR reported AS FACT that babies had died in their incubators because of power cuts. The source was CNN Arabic. But the CNN Arabic report was lifted verbatim from an earlier UNVERIFIED report from...Rahman's SOHR!

Reports of dead babies and incubators certainly get the blood boiling.

That's why we have to be very, very careful about believing not only what you see, but also what you hear and also read.

Regarding these latest reports of dead babies, there are no photographs.

As NATO Supremo General Wesley Clark has told us, within days of 9/11 The Pentagon was ordered to draw up plans to wage war on seven countries in five years. Five have seen intrigue of one form or another. Syria was on that list. We now see threats of intervention from NATO.

And the warmongering on Iran is live but covert, with assassinations of scientists, releases of internet viruses, large explosions at military bases etc.

What you are seeing, hearing and reading is the result of years of image engineering.

Meanwhile, it looks like earlier reports and suspicions about the presence of British Special Forces in Syria assisting the Syrian rebs, particularly in Homs, are true, with BSF providing advice, communications and logistical support[5].

UK PLANNED WAR AND FAKE REVOLUTION IN SYRIA IN 1957

Documents found in 2003 show a conspiracy being planned against Syria in 1957. A fake revolution was to be instigated leading to intervention and invasion by the UK and USA. Sound familiar? It is the same plan used in Libya last year. And is the same plan being used now in Syria.

Whether this is precisely the same plan that is being implemented is up for debate. The plan was to be implemented in 1957. It is now 2012 and things have changed.

But there are definite similarities. Arming political factions with paramilitary capabilities is definitely one of them. The most recent Arab League report on Syria clearly stated that there were anti-government terrorist "armed gangs" within Syria, blowing up buses killing women and children, and both Lavrov and Churkin have made reference to these, asking anyone who has influence over them, i.e. the UK and USA, to bring them to the table for negotiations.

SYRIA: CIA-MI6 Intel Ops and Sabotage

by Felicity Arbuthnot


Global Research, February 7, 2012

“In order to facilitate the action of liberative (sic) forces, ...a special effort should be made to eliminate certain key individuals. ...[to] be accomplished early in the course of the uprising and intervention, ...

Once a political decision has been reached to proceed with internal disturbances in Syria, CIA is prepared, and SIS (MI6) will attempt to mount minor sabotage and coup de main (sic) incidents within Syria, working through contacts with individuals. ...Incidents should not be concentrated in Damascus …

Further : a “necessary degree of fear .. frontier incidents and (staged) border clashes”, would “provide a pretext for intervention... the CIA and SIS [MI6 should use … capabilitites in both psychological and action fields to augment tension.” (Joint US-UK leaked Intelligence Document, London and Washington, 1957)


“'The very concept of objective truth is fading out of the world. Lies will pass into history." (George Orwell (Eric Arthur Blair, 1903-1950.)

For anyone in two minds about what is really going on in Syria, and whether President Assad, hailed a decade ago as “A Modern Day Attaturk”, has become the latest megalomaniacal despot, to whose people a US-led posse of nations, must deliver “freedom”, with weapons of mass, home, people, nation and livelihood destruction, here is a salutary tale from modern history.

Have the more recent sabre rattlings against Syria* been based on US-UK government papers, only discovered in 2003 - and since air brushed (or erroneously omitted) from even BBC timelines, on that country?(i)

In late 2003, the year of the Iraq invasion, Matthew Jones, a Reader in International History, at London’s Royal Holloway College, discovered “frighteningly frank” documents:1957 plans between then UK Prime Minister, Harold Macmillan, and then President, Dwight Eisenhower, endorsing: “a CIA-MI6 plan to stage fake border incidents as an excuse for an invasion (of Syria) by Syria’s pro-western neighbours.” (ii)
