RAPID ESCALATION OF WAR IN SYRIA

Franklin Lamb has reported some very serious and grave comments on what is being planned for Syria now that it has been 'found' that Assad used chemical weapons.

But first, Lamb also discusses why Obama has suddenly changed his mind.

Other sources are asserting that Obama actually did not want to invoke direct military aid the rebels fighting to topple the Assad government or even to make use of American military power in Syria for several reasons.

...In addition, Obama has been weakened recently by domestic politics and a number of distractions and potential scandals not least of which is the disclosures regarding the massive NSA privacy invasion.

This supports what I have been saying.

But what will the USA do now? According to Lamb:

The Washington Post is reporting that Kerry believes supplying the rebels with weapons might be too little and too late to actually flip the balance on the Syrian ground and this calls “for a military strike to paralyze Al-Assad’s military capacities.” A Pentagon source reported that the USA, France, and Britain are considering a decisive decision to reverse the current Assad momentum and quickly construct one in favor of the rebels” within a time period not exceeding the end of this summer.

...King Abdullah [of the utopian democracy of Saudi Arabia] was reportedly advised by Kerry to be prepared for a rapid expansion of the growing regional conflict.

...“We are going to see a rapid escalation of the conflict”, a staffer on the US Senate Foreign Relations Committee emailed this observer:

...A part of this “humanitarian assistance” the US is going to established in the coming weeks a “limited, humanitarian no-fly zone, that will begin along several miles of the Jordanian and Turkish borders in certain military areas into Syrian territory, and would be set up and presented as a limited bid to train and equip rebel forces and protect refugees. But in reality, as we saw in Libya a Syrian no fly zone would very likely include all of Syria.

...In response to a question from this observer about how he thought event might unfold in this region over the coming months, a very insightful long-term congressional aid replied: “Well Franklin, maybe someone will pull a rabbit out of the hat to stop the push for war. But frankly I doubt it. From where I sit I’d wager that Syria as we have known it may soon be no more. And perhaps some other countries in the region also.”

This coming week the nation's darling BBC radio presenter Shelagh Fogarty will be reporting all week from a camp in Jordan for Syrian refugees. Coincidence? I think not. She will be used to develop the R2P argument.

Obama can still pull back from this fast approaching catastrophe. He did not start it. Israel started all this by attacking the USA on 9/11. Obama knows this. We all know this. Even the spider in my bathroom knows this.

Obama could well go down as the most hated President of The United States of America, by dragging the USA into a regional war in The Middle East, a war he could easily avoid, and one for which he should throw his Nobel Peace Prize into the Potomac.

Or he can kick Israel in the bollocks and go public on 9/11, stop all the Zionist warmongering and adopt Dr Webster Tarpley's suggestions for economic development.
