As the US elections enter their final 3 month stretch, an unusually
strong emphasis has been placed on foreign policy, with each candidate
blaming the other for the creation of ISIS, the mess that is Libya, and
the civil war in Syria.

Sometimes the candidates (HRC) even blame Russia for ISIS
(http://theduran.com/hillary-clinton-surrogate-senator-claire-mccaskill-says-trump-and-his-friend-putin-are-the-founder-of-isis/)
, even though last I checked Vladimir Putin was not running for the US
President…America could only be so lucky.

What is often lost in the debate and rhetoric is how we went from
secular and stable states in Iraq, Libya and Syria, and have now come to
the present day situation.

Iraq was illegally invaded by George W. Bush in search of those
mysterious WMDs.

Libya was torn apart by Hillary Clinton, Sarkozi and Cameron. Muammar
Gaddafi suffered a horrible death as Hillary cackled

in joy. Gaddafi’s crime…proposing to set up an African currency backed
by gold and not the USD.

Syria, well that’s where things seem a bit blurry.

Before the civil war broke out, Syria was a safe, prosperous, and very
secular Middle East nation. How Syria devolved into the tragic chaos
that plagues it today, is muddled up in dozens of false claims of
chemical attacks, moderate rebels, freedom fighters, and other scripted
narratives, purposefully meant to blur the operation launched against
Assad by the “exceptional” nation.

This is why the below post is essential reading.

Entitled, “The day before Deraa: How the war broke out in Syria”
(http://ahtribune.com/world/north-africa-south-west-asia/syria-crisis/1135-day-before-deraa.html)
by Steven Sahiounie, this piece goes back in time and sets the record
straight.

Things in Syria did not just happen by chance, nor was it some sort of
“democratic” uprising.

Vile revolutions, like that in Syria, are carefully planned and well
funded. Do not let history and fact be polluted by the corrupt media and
Washington politicians, that look to wash away their sins, while
rewriting the past to paint a fantasy picture.

** The day before Deraa: How the war broke out in Syria
------------------------------------------------------------

The day before September 11, 2001 was like any normal day in New York
City.  September 10, 2001 was unaware of the earthshaking events which
would happen the next day.

Similarly, one might think the day before the violence broke out in
Deraa, Syria in March 2011 would have been an uneventful day, unaware of
the uprising about to begin.

But, that was not the case.  Deraa was teaming with activity and foreign
visitors to Syria well before the staged uprising began its opening act.

The Omari Mosque was the scene of backstage preparations, costume
changes and rehearsals.  The Libyan terrorists, fresh from the
battlefield of the US-NATO   regime change  attack on Libya, were in
Deraa well ahead of the March 2011 uprising violence.  The cleric of the
Omari Mosque was Sheikh Ahmad al Sayasneh . He was an older man with a
severe eye problem, which caused him to wear special dark glasses, and
severely hampered his vision.  He was not only visually impaired, but
light sensitive as well, which caused him to be indoors as much as
possible and often isolated.  He was accustomed to judging the people he
talked with by their accent and voice. The Deraa accent is distinctive.
All of the men attending the Omari Mosque were local men, all with the
common Deraa accent.  However, the visitors from Libya did not make
themselves known to the cleric, as that would blow their cover.
Instead, they worked with local men; a few key players who they worked
to make their partners and confidants. The participation of local Muslim
Brotherhood followers, who would assist the foreign Libyan
mercenaries/terrorists, was an essential part of the CIA plan, which was
well scripted and directed from Jordan.

Enlisting the aid and cooperation of local followers of Salafism allowed
the Libyans to move in Deraa without attracting any suspicion.   The
local men were the ‘front’ for the operation.

The CIA agents running the Deraa operation from their office in Jordan
had already provided the weapons and cash needed to fuel the flames of
revolution in Syria.   With enough money and weapons, you can start a
revolution anywhere in the world.

In reality, the uprising in Deraa in March 2011 was not fueled by
graffiti written by teenagers, and there were no disgruntled parents
demanding their children to be freed.    This was part of the Hollywood
style script written by skilled CIA agents, who had been given a
mission: to destroy Syria for the purpose of regime change.  Deraa was
only Act 1: Scene 1.

The fact that those so-called teenaged graffiti artists and their
parents have never been found, never named, and never pictured is the
first clue that their identity is cloaked in darkness.

In any uprising there needs to be grassroots support. Usually, there is
a situation which arises, and protesters take to the streets.  The
security teams step in to keep the peace and clear the streets and if
there is a ‘brutal crackdown’ the otherwise ‘peaceful protesters’ will
react with indignation, and feeling oppressed and wronged, the numbers
in the streets will swell.   This is the point where the street protests
can take two directions: the protesters will back down and go home, or
the protesters can react with violence, which then will be met with
violence from the security teams, and this sets the stage for a full
blown uprising.

The staged uprising in Deraa had some locals in the street who were
unaware of their participation in a CIA-Hollywood production.  They were
the unpaid extras in the scene about to be shot.  These unaware extras
had grievances, perhaps  lasting a generation or more, and perhaps
rooted in Wahhabism, which is a political ideology exported globally by
the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia and the Royal family and their paid
officials.

The Libyans stockpiled weapons at the Omari Mosque well before any rumor
spread about teenagers arrested for graffiti.  The cleric, visually
impaired and elderly, was unaware of the situation inside his Mosque, or
of the foreign infiltrators in his midst.

The weapons came into Deraa from the CIA office in Jordan.  The US
government has close ties to the King of Jordan.   Jordan is 98%
Palestinian, and yet has a long lasting peace treaty with Israel,
despite the fact that 5 million of the Jordanian citizen’s relatives
next door in Occupied Palestine are denied any form of human rights.
The King of Jordan has to do a daily high-wire balancing act between his
citizens, the peace and safety in his country and America’s interests
and projects in the Middle East.   King Abdullah is not only a
tight-rope walker, but a juggler at the same time, and all of this
pressure on him must be enormous for him, and Queen Rania, who is
herself Palestinian.  These facts must be viewed in the forefront of the
background painted scenery of The Syrian Arab Republic, which has for
the last 40 years had a cornerstone of domestic and foreign policy
carved and set in the principle of Palestinian human rights and
Palestinian freedom and justice.

The US policy to attack Syria for the purpose of regime change was not
just about the gas lines, the oil wells, the strategic location and the
gold: but it was about crushing that cornerstone of Palestinian rights
into dust.  To get rid of President Bashar al Assad was to get rid of
one of the few Arab leaders who are an unwavering voice of Palestinian
rights.

Deraa’s location directly on the Jordanian border is the sole reason it
was picked for the location-shoot of the opening act of the Syrian
uprising.    If you were to ask most Syrians, if they had ever been to
Derra, or ever plan to go, they will answer, “No.”  It is a small and
insignificant agricultural town.  It is a very unlikely place to begin a
nationwide revolution.  Deraa has a historical importance because of
archeological ruins, but that is lost on anyone other than history
professors or archeologists.    The access to the weapons from Jordan
made Deraa the perfect place to stage the uprising which has turned into
an international war.  Any person with common sense would assume an
uprising or revolution in Syria would begin in Damascus or Aleppo, the
two biggest cities. Even after 2 ½ years of violence around the country,
Aleppo’s population never participated in the uprising, or call for
regime change.   Aleppo: the large industrial powerhouse of Syria wanted
nothing to do with the CIA mission, and felt that by staying clear of
any participation they could be spared and eventually the violence would
die out, a natural death due to lack of participation of the civilians.
However, this was not to play out for Aleppo.  Instead, the US supported
Free Syrian Army, who were mainly from Idlib and the surrounding areas,
invited in their foreign partners, and they came pouring into Aleppo
from Turkey, where they had taken Turkish Airlines flights from
Afghanistan, Europe, Australia and North Africa landing in Istanbul, and
then transported by buses owned by the Turkish government to the
Turkey-Aleppo border.  The airline tickets, buses, paychecks, supplies,
food, and medical needs were all supplied in Turkey by an official from
Saudi Arabia.  The weapons were all supplied by the United States of
America, from their warehouse at the dock of Benghazi, Libya.  The
US-NATO regime change mission had ended in success in Libya, with
America having taken possession of all the weapons and stockpiles
formerly the property of the Libyan government, including tons of gold
bullion taken by the US government from the Central Bank of Libya.

Enter the Libyans stage right. Mehdi al Harati, the Libyan with an Irish
passport, was put in charge of a Brigade of terrorists working under the
pay and direction of the CIA in Libya.  Once his fighting subsided
there, he was moved to Northern Syria, in the Idlib area, which was the
base of operation for the American backed Free Syrian Army, who
Republican Senator John McCain lobbied for in the US Congress, and
personally visited, illegally entering Syria without any passport or
border controls.  In Arizona, Sen. McCain is in favor of deporting any
illegal alien entering USA, but he himself broke international law by
entering Syria as an illegal and undocumented alien.  However, he was in
the company of trusted friends and associates, the Free Syrian Army: the
same men who beheaded Christians and Muslims, raped females and children
of both sexes, sold girls as sex slaves in Turkey, and ate the raw liver
of a man, which they  proudly videoed and uploaded.

Previously, Syria did not have any Al Qaeda terrorists, and had passed
through the war in neighboring Iraq none the worse for wear, except
having accepted 2 million Iraqis as refugee guests. Shortly before the
Deraa staged uprising began, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were in
Damascus and being driven around by the President and First Lady. Pitt
and Jolie had come to visit and support the Iraqi war refugees in
Damascus.  Brad Pitt was amazed that the Syrian President would drive
him around personally, and without any body guards or security detail.
Pitt and Jolie were used to their own heavy security team in USA.  Pres.
Assad explained that he and his wife were comfortable in Damascus,
knowing that it was a safe place.  Indeed, the association of French
travel agents had deemed Syria as the safest tourist destination in the
entire Mediterranean region, meaning even safer than France itself.

However, the US strategy was to create a “New Middle East”, which would
do away with safety in Syria; through the ensuing tornado, aka ‘winds of
change’.

Tunisia, Libya, Egypt and then Syria were the stepping stones in the
garden of the “Arab Spring”.  But, the scenario in the Syrian mission
did not stay on script.   It went over deadline and over budget.  The
final credits have yet to be rolled, and the curtain has yet to fall on
the stage.

We can’t under estimate the role that mainstream media had to play in
the destruction of Syria.  For example, Al Jazeera’s Rula Amin was in
Deraa and personally interviewed the cleric Sayasneh at the Omari
Mosque.   Al Jazeera is the state owned and operated media for the
Prince of Qatar.  The Prince of Qatar was one of the key funders of the
terrorists attacking Syria.  The USA was sending the weapons, supplies
and providing military satellite imagery, however the cash to make
payroll, to pay out bribes in Turkey, and all other expenses which
needed cold cash in hand was being paid out by the Prince of Qatar and
the King of Saudi Arabia, who were playing their roles as closest Middle
East allies of the United States of America.  This was a production team
between USA, EU, NATO, Turkey, Jordan, Israel and the Persian Gulf Arab
monarchies of Saudi Arabia and Qatar primarily.  The CIA has no problem
with covert operations in foreign countries, and even full scale
attacks, but the matter of funding needs to come from a foreign country,
because the American voters don’t care about killing people in Syria,
but they would never agree to pay for it.  As long as the Arabs were
paying for the project, that was OK by Mr. John Q. Public, who probably
was not able to find Syria on a map anyway.

Rula Amin and others of the Al Jazeera staff, and including the American
CNN, the British BBC and the French France24 all began deliberate
political propaganda campaign against the Syrian government and the
Syrian people who were suffering from the death and destruction brought
on by the terrorists who were pretending to be players in a local
uprising.   Some days, the scripts were so similar that you would have
guessed they were all written in the same hotel room in Beirut.  Onto
the stage stepped the online media personalities of Robert Fisk, from
his vantage point in Beirut and Joshua Landis from his perch in
Oklahoma.  These 2 men, sitting so far removed from the actual events,
pretended to know everything going on in Syria.  British and American
readers were swayed by their deliberate one-sided explanations, while
the actual Syrians living inside Syria, who read in English online, were
baffled.  Syrians were wondering how Western writers could take the side
of the terrorists who were foreigners, following Radical Islam and
attacking any unarmed civilian who tried to defend their home and
family. The media was portraying the terrorists as freedom fighters and
heroes of democracy, while they were raping, looting, maiming,
kidnapping for ransom and murdering unarmed civilians who had not read
the script before the shooting began in Deraa.  There was one global
movie trailer, and it was a low budget cell phone video which went viral
around the world, and it sold the viewers on the idea of Syria being in
the beginning of a dramatic fight for freedom, justice and the American
way.   From the very beginning, Al Jazeera and all the rest of the media
were paying $100.00 to any amateur video shot in Syria.  A whole new
cottage industry sprang up in Syria, with directors and actors all
hungry for the spotlight and fame.  Authenticity was not questioned; the
media just wanted content which supported their propaganda campaign in
Syria.

Deraa was the opening act of tragic epic which has yet to conclude.  The
cleric who was a key character in the beginning scenes, Sheikh Sayasneh,
was first put under house arrest, and then he was smuggled out to Amman,
Jordan in January 2012.  He now gives lectures in America near
Washington, DC. Just like aspiring actors usually find their way to
Hollywood, which is the Mecca of the film industry, Sheikh Sayasneh
found his way to the Mecca of all regime change projects.
