US Policy Vs. Syria Indicative of Exhausted Legitimacy

February 28, 2013 (LD) – The US State Department, and to a greater extent, US foreign policy itself, having exhausted completely their collective credibility, has attempted yet another “reset.” By bringing in John Kerry to pose as the next US Secretary of State, it is hoped global opinion will see US foreign policy in a new, more tolerant light. Kerry, however, has wasted no time attempting to simply resell verbatim the same failed, absurd policy US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton destroyed her career peddling, spinning, and covering up – as finalized in the case of Benghazi, Libya.

The Washington Post’s piece, “U.S. announces expanded battlefield aid to Syrian rebels, but not arms,” rehashes the same tired, patently false narrative that has been used throughout the duration of the US-fueled Syrian conflict. The Washington Post reports:

The Obama administration will provide food and medicine to Syrian rebel fighters, Secretary of State John F. Kerry said Thursday, announcing a cautious U.S. foray into front-line battlefield support that falls far short of the heavy weapons or high-tech gear the rebels seek.

“The stakes are really high, and we can’t risk letting this country — in the heart of the Middle East — be destroyed by vicious autocrats or hijacked by the extremists,” Kerry said following discussions among a group of Western and Arab nations that are funding, and in some cases arming, the fighters.
The United States will, for the first time, send supplies through the rebels’ central military headquarters, with U.S. advisers supervising the distribution of food rations and medical supplies, U.S. officials said. The shift is intended to give the U.S.-backed Syrian Opposition Coalition greater say over the aid, but it is also a test of the rebels’ ability to keep donated supplies out of the hands of extremists in their midst.

The Washington Post report is a verified lie. US assistance, cash, weapons, and covert military support had been ongoing in Syria since 2007 – in other words – before the current conflict even began. And the US has been providing this support not for moderates, but specifically and intentionally for the ideological foundation of Al Qaeda itself, the sectarian extremist Muslim Brotherhood, since the Bush administration.

Dead French Photographer was State Department-Funded – Embedded With Al Qaeda

20130228-091046.jpg

By Tony Cartalucci, LAND DESTROYER

February 25, 2013 (LD) – Further indication of the depraved nature of the West’s campaign against Syria, and the depraved nature of its institutions, methods, and faux-NGOs, vindicating a growing trend of ejecting Western “journalists” and NGO’s from an ever increasing number of nations, it is revealed that a French photographer recently killed in Syria was embedded with terrorist militants in Idlib, northern Syria, and was working on behalf of the US State Department’s National Endowment for Democracy (NED) funded “Reporters Without Borders.”

The UK Daily Mail revealed in their article, “French photographer killed by flying shrapnel in Syria as rebels launch fresh offensive on police academy in Aleppo,” that:

A French photographer has been killed by flying shrapnel in Syria while covering operations of an armed opposition group.

The French government said today Olivier Voisin had been working for Reporters Without Borders near the northwestern city of Idlib.

Idlib, Syria, along with much of northern Syria is admittedly overrun by Al Qaeda. In fact, a recent Washington Post article stated that northern Syria was so overrun with Al Qaeda, that Western nations along with its Arab partners have decided to ship weapons in from Daraa in southern Syria. Of course, Daraa too is a long-time hotbed for extremist activity, including Al Qaeda, years before the so-called “uprising” even began.

Je suis frappé par ce petit quelque chose d’irradiant chez lui .

Il se dégage de cet homme une sorte de sérénité et de paix intérieure.

US firms hatched plot to topple Hugo Chavez – WikiLeaks

WikiLeaks has revealed the participation of at least two American companies behind attempts to overthrow Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez.
The hand of Washington was detected in actions of the Venezuelan opposition since 2006 and in its opposition campaign for the 2010 parliamentary elections.

The leaked email messages, dating back to July 2004 and December 2011, were tracked to the Stratfor and Canvas companies that used students and other people in an effort to overthrow Chavez.

One of the exposed Canvas reports exposed by Wikileaks on the situation in Venezuela proposes a roadmap of a strategy that was successfully used in Serbia by the Otpor movement, where the CIA used student protests and a color revolution to overthrow Slodoban Milosevic in 2000.

The messages cover a large variety of issues and focus on the sector of energy, the petrochemical and oil industry in particular, as well as political change, the situation of the counterrevolutionary forces and the military.

Le lexique d’un leader du 21ème siècle (Dissident Voice)

Lesley Docksey

Pour aider tous les leaders du 21ième siècle (occidentaux bien sûr) dans leurs discours ou leurs déclarations aux médias et à leur crédules auditeurs. N.B. : cette liste n’est pas exhaustive et les leaders pourront inventer les mots et les phrases dont ils ont besoin et leurs alter ego pourront s’en inspirer.

Insurgés (aussi appelés terroristes, Moudjahidines, Al Qaeda, Talibans, Islamistes) : méchants. Nous ne les soutenons pas.

Rebelles : bons ; Nous les soutenons avec des armes et autres matériels, et ce sont nos forces (qui ne sont pas là) qui les entraînent parce que ….

Bottes sur le terrain : nous n’enverrons pas de soldats (parce qu’ils y sont déjà partis il y a une semaine/un mois/un an).

Régimes, dictatures : les gouvernements légitimes que nous ne soutenons pas.

Gouvernements : les régimes et dictatures que nous soutenons.

‘Nous sommes fiers de notre relation privilégiée’ : nous leur achetons des armes.

‘Partenaires’ : nous leur vendons des armes.

Pays amis : et à eux aussi.

Alliés mondiaux : et à eux aussi.

Nous sommes heureux d’accueillir le nouveau gouvernement/le renversement du gouvernement précédent : nous voulons leur vendre des armes.

Régimes : ceux à qui nous vendions des armes auparavant.

Dictatures : idem.

Etat voyou : un état dont l’occident a entièrement perdu le contrôle.

Armes chimiques/biologiques/nucléaires : utilisez ces termes pour effrayer vos propres citoyens. Par exemple, “l’Iran/l’Irak/la Syrie pourraient nous attaquer avec des armes chimiques/biologiques/nucléaires”. Attention, soyez quand même prudent parce (1) il se pourrait qu’ils n’en aient pas et (2) vous ne vous souvenez plus si vous leur en avez vendu ou non.

Ajoutez par sécurité : ‘Nous avons la preuve qu’ils les ont utilisées contre leurs propres citoyens’. Ne fournissez JAMAIS de preuves. Ce que vous voulez ce sont les grands titres dans les journaux du lendemain – “Syrie/Iran/Irak accusé de…”

‘Nous avons des preuves’ : généralement imaginaires ; il y a deux façons de procéder 1) Ne jamais en reparler et espérant que les gens oublieront. 2) Invoquer la ‘sécurité’ pour justifier votre manque de transparence et d’honnêteté.

Ferme réponse sécuritaire : tout ; des sanctions, frappes aériennes, bottes sur le terrain, à la fermeture complète de votre propre pays.
