Tunisian Terrorists Are Now Confirmed Members of Syrian Death Squads

20130327-072206.jpg

By Brandon Turbeville, ACTIVIST POST

In yet another blow to the fragile and the entirely fabricated narrative pushed by the United States, NATO, and the Anglo-American powers, a recent broadcast of a Tunisian television program features firsthand accounts demonstrating that the Syrian “rebels” are actually nothing more than religious fanatics, mercenaries, and foreign fighters.

As reported by Salma Bouzid of Tusnisia Live, the Tunisian television show, Attasiaa Massaa, recently featured a clip of a young Tunisian man named Abou Zayd Attounssi who claims that he recently returned to Tunisia after fighting for eight months alongside the inappropriately named “Syrian rebels.”

Further supporting the fundamentalist nature of the majority of the members of the NATO death squads (aka rebels) operating in Syria, Attounssi stated that his initial reason for traveling to Syria to engage in murder, plunder, and torture against innocent people was because “he felt his religion required him to engage in jihad against ‘the enemy.’”

Although it was apparently not the killing that turned Attounssi off from the death squad movement, he nevertheless became disillusioned with it because, “most of the fighters within the Free Syrian army are fighting for the spoils of war and the foreign aid they supposedly get.”

Also featured on the show was the father of Hamza Rjeb, another former death squad member who is now disabled. Rjeb’s father claimed that “the Tunisian government should take full responsibility for his son’s situation and for allowing groups in the country to ‘brainwash’ his son.”

In an interview with Tunisia Live, Ahmed Youssef, a journalist described by Bouzid as “pro-Assad,” stated, “For every Tunisian fighter brought to Syria, Qatar pays 3,000 dollars to the Syrian rebels.” He also claimed that, “most of the Tunisians come from disadvantaged regions in Tunisia with low unemployment,” and stated that the Tunisians fighting in Syria are “considered mercenaries.” Youssef estimated that the number of Tunisian fighters wreaking havoc in Syria is more than 3,500.

Michel Collon : “L’Algérie est clairement la suivante sur la liste”

20130201-090453.jpg

Par Michel Collon, La Nouvelle République via E&R

La Nouvelle République : Vous avez travaillé sur l’intervention militaire en Libye et ses répercussions stratégiques sur la région du Sahel, quelle est votre approche sur la situation au Nord-Mali et son impact régional et international ?

Michel Collon : Je pense que l’intervention de la France contre le Mali, c’est la continuation de la guerre contre la Libye et contre la Syrie. C’est une nouvelle phase dans ce que j’appellerais la recolonisation ou le fait de stabiliser la colonisation de l’Afrique en général, l’Afrique du Nord et l’Afrique de l’Ouest. Je pense que la chose qui n’est jamais traitée dans les médias européens et des Etats-Unis, c’est que le Mali et toute la région est pour la France, je veux dire la France officielle, la France des 1%, une zone de richesses naturelles que les multinationales françaises considèrent leur appartenir et pas aux populations locales.

L’exploitation des mines d’or par des groupes français comme Bouygues, dans des conditions scandaleuses avec de nombreux mineurs qui meurent à cause de l’utilisation du cyanure et de l’arsenic sans prévention et sans soins corrects, est la preuve que ces multinationales sont prêtes à écraser des êtres humains pour maintenir ou augmenter leur profit. Au Mali, on trouve également des gisements d’uranium ; c’est une richesse stratégique pour la multinationale française Areva, numéro un dans l’exportation du nucléaire au niveau mondial et la France a toujours fait en sorte de s’assurer le contrôle des gisements d’uranium et pour cela, elle a commis les pires crimes.

Et, donc, quand on veut voir comment la France considère les richesses naturelles, il suffit de voir l’exemple du Niger, c’est le pays n°174 sur la liste du développement humain, c’est-à-dire le dernier pays, le plus pauvre, les Nigériens ont une espérance de vie de 49 ans et moins de trois enfants sur dix vont à l’école. Et lorsqu’on a demandé à la multinationale Areva de faire un geste pour ces enfants, elle a répondu que ce n’était pas son problème, donc les Nigériens peuvent crever de faim, littéralement, et les Maliens aussi, pendant que des firmes comme Areva et celles qui travaillent avec elle, c’est-à-dire Suez, Bouygues, Alstom, construisent des profits fabuleux et que leurs actionnaires et leurs principaux dirigeants se construisent des châteaux un peu partout dans le monde.

Donc on a l’or, l’uranium, on a bien entendu le gaz et le pétrole, avec des richesses très importantes en Algérie et aussi dans d’autres pays de la région, et on constate qu’il y a une guerre pour les matières premières qui se mène, avec comme acteurs principaux, la France, les Etats-Unis, mais aussi le Qatar qui jour un rôle trouble en coulisses et qui veut devenir le n°1 mondial du gaz en alliance avec les Etats-Unis et contre la Russie, et donc je pense que cette guerre au Mali, c’est une guerre contre les patriotes maliens qui ont essayé de mettre fin à la corruption et de faire en sorte que les richesses naturelles du Mali profitent aux Maliens et permettent de mettre fin à la pauvreté. C’est une guerre contre le Niger, dont l’uranium est absolument stratégique.

C’est une guerre contre l’Algérie, parce que ce pays a lui aussi des ressources naturelles très importantes comme chacun sait. Il n’entend pas les offrir aux multinationales françaises et autres, donc c’est un pays qui conserve un secteur public important. C’est un pays qui résiste à Israël, qui a refusé de s’intégrer dans l’Otan et dans Africom, l’organisation militaire des Etats-Unis pour le contrôle des richesses de l’Afrique. Ses dirigeants militaires ont très clairement expliqué que le but d’Africom, donc le but des interventions militaires que les Etats-Unis préparent dans toute l’Afrique, c’est d’empêcher que l’Afrique ne soit indépendante et n’aie des partenaires comme la Chine, le Brésil, la Russie et d’autres pays.

Will Antiwar Orgs Get Behind HCR 107 to Prevent War on Syria?

By Philip C. Restino, Jr., The Intel Hub

Well, it looks like Obama is going to attack Syria with at most token opposition by the national antiwar organizations, as was the case when he “phoned in” the order to bomb the crap out of Libya back on March 19, 2011.

After a year’s worth of bloodshed in Libya and simultaneous drum-beating for invading Syria in the same manner, H.Con.Res. 107 was introduced on March 7, 2012 by Rep. Walter Jones (R-NC) threatening impeachment of the President if he were to take the U.S. to war without a proper authorization by Congress.

Even with the imminent threat of a U.S./NATO military invasion of Syria … which could come any day now before the new Congress is sworn in next month after the holidays … there is little, if no mention of the Republican Congressman’s HCR 107 from the “left-only-need-apply” national antiwar organizations, let alone any public endorsements or calls for Congress to support and enact the resolution.

The most we’ll probably get from the national “left-only-need-apply” antiwar organizations, to include our own Veterans For Peace, is some kind of meaningless C-Y-A statement of “opposition” while the Democrat War Criminal President Obama launches another unabated, blatant war of aggression killing and maiming thousands of innocent brown people, again with the “left cover” he’s been so freely provided over the past 4 years.

BenghaziGate: Two 9/11’s Bring Questions : Has Uncle Sam Joined The Jihad? [Yes He Has]

20121030-190659.jpg
By Clare M. LOPEZ, 20 years Former CIA – Oathkeepers

[---] Along the way, we’ve begun to worship the office of President unduly as we’ve watched the Executive usurp Congressional and Judicial powers to the point that, by 1947, President Truman consented to and signed into law the National Security Act of 1947 which created the CIA. Six short years later our CIA took down the duly elected democratic government of Iran and CIA has lingered long in the middle east ever since, doing what CIA does best — keeping deep dark ugly secrets from the American people while rampaging amok in the name of American and multi-national corporate ‘interests’ at the expense of stability in oil-producing nations.

We see that eventually that omniscient centralized government Patrick Henry dreaded was allowed to develop. For over five decades it has wreaked havoc around the world. Since 1947 it has honed a domestic policy which has intimidated any dissent and has used the strong arm of the government to chill the speech of Americans who do not agree with such mischief. It has burgeoned into an oligarchic, fascistic, iron-fisted super-surveillance military-police state mechanism called the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.

And now? Well, now the chickens are coming home to roost. The unholy serpent shall devour its tail while deep dark secrets are transmuted in the sordid bowels of deception and we are found wanting for asking if our dearly beloved Commander in Chief, President Obama, has lied through his teeth regarding the Federal government’s smuggling of armaments to al Qaeda in Libya and Syria.

The question may have standing.

It appears that our ambassador to Libya was working with the CIA. It appears that the CIA was providing arms to al Qaeda and other Islamic Jihadist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood for the purpose of taking down governments in the middle-east – with the President’s knowledge.

If this proves to be true, this thing is positively huge. Can it conceivably cost a sitting President his office? Can it throw the 2012 Presidential election? Can it awaken the cheer-leading sports-addicted and creature-comfort-crazed American public? Dare the media toss it out onto the table?

[Editor's Note: we, you, know that this is true and that Private Corporations controlled Obama has provided arms to al Qaeda and other Islamic Jihadist groups such as the Muslim Brotherhood for the purpose of taking down governments in the middle-east: Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and Syria for the time being.]

BENGHAZI—WAS THIS A UNITED STATES GUNRUNNING OPERATION TO AL QAIDA JIHADIS?

Former 20 year CIA veteran, Clare Lopez: “Jordan is targeted! Saudi Arabia is targeted!”

(excerpt from above link — read whole article at link)

Questions:

Could the Obama Administration’s Fast and Furious gunrunning operation to the Mexican drug cartels be simply a dress rehearsal for a much larger gunrunning operation to al Qaida-linked and other Jihadist groups in Libya and, more ominously, Syria?

Is the Obama Administration running guns into other Jihadist hot spots?

Does the United States of America have troops in Jordan?

Was Ambassador Stevens our operational officer in a gunrunning operation to al Qaida linked groups that had “gone wrong?”

Syria demands UNSC, UN General Secretariat and UNHRC to condemn crimes of Terrorists

Syria demanded the UN Security Council (UNSC), UN General Secretariat and UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) to expose the crimes of the armed groups, condemn them and punish these groups.

The demand came in identical letters sent by the Foreign and Expatriates Ministry to the Head of UNSC, UNSG, UNHRC Chairperson and High Commissioner of Human Rights.

The Syrian foreign ministry stressed in its letters that the armed groups and their supporters are continuing shedding the Syrian blood in contradiction with all human values and at a timing which became known being repeated before sessions held by the UNSC to discuss the situation in Syria.

The Ministry highlighted that the massacre committed by an armed terrorist group in Duma city in Damascus Countryside took place in an area where there is no presence of the Syrian Army or and where the armed terrorist groups are active. Continue reading →

Arms Flow to Syria May Be Behind Benghazi Cover-Up

20121022-204436.jpg

By Clare M. Lopez, papundits

The day after the big Obama-Romney debate, as media and politicians were engaging in the usual after-action assessment frenzy, some of the most important issues surrounding the September 11 attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, remain unaddressed.

While it clearly matters (a lot) if and when the President told the truth to the American public about the terrorist nature of that attack and why the Department of State refused repeated pleas from its own diplomats in Libya for more and better security, the deeper, unaddressed issue is about the relationship of the U.S. government, Ambassador Christopher Stevens and the U.S. diplomatic mission in Libya with Al Qaeda.

During the 2011 Libyan revolt against Muammar Qaddafi, reckless U.S. policy flung American forces and money into the conflict on the side of the rebels, who were known at the time to include Al Qaeda elements. Previously the number two official at the U.S. Embassy in Tripoli, Christopher Stevens was named as the official U.S. liaison to the Libyan opposition in March, 2011.

Stevens was tasked with helping to coordinate U.S. assistance to the rebels, whose top military commander, Abdelhakim Belhadj, was the leader of the Al Qaeda affiliate, the Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG). That means that Stevens was authorized by the U.S. Department of State and the Obama administration to aid and abet individuals and groups that were, at a minimum, allied ideologically with Al Qaeda, the jihadist terrorist organization that attacked the homeland on the first 9/11, the one that’s not supposed to exist anymore after the killing of its leader, Osama bin Laden, on May 2, 2012.

Libyan Epiphany: Tomahawks Trump Teachers

[Editor's note: This article by Dean HENDERSON was initially published in March 21st 2011, at the beginning of the aggressive war of the US and NATO against Libya.]

20121021-194754.jpg

By Dean HENDERSON, LEFT HOOK

Events of the past week crystallized the profound hypocrisy and immorality of the American body politic. If you’ve retained any semblance of your humanity, after decades of desensitization at the hands of the military-industrial mafia and their titillating lapdog media, you could not escape the glaring epiphany of a nation with disturbing priorities.

Japan suffered a natural disaster of historic magnitude, is battling an epic nuclear meltdown just as the world was reassured that nuclear power was safe, and struggles to feed its population – especially the elderly in nursing homes. The US has seven large military bases in Japan. The country’s largest ports remain open and undamaged. Yet, instead of focusing every resource at our disposal on the Japanese cataclysm, the Obama Administration – at the urging of colonial masters Britain and France – decided to bomb Libya.

Our erudite and eager-to-please cowboy President pulled a Butch Cassidy and tried to hide out in South America, apparently unaware that most of that continent enjoys better relations with Libya than with the US. American exceptionalism was in short supply. But the empirical band played on.

Republicans – who had busied their fat little fingers (between large slices of American pie) laying waste to unions – quickly abandoned their months-long collective tirade on the merits of fiscal conservatism. While Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker gleefully handed out pink slips to teachers, General Dynamics demonically ramped up production of its Tomahawk missiles. Defense and oil stocks soared.

Each Tomahawk that blasts a depleted-uranium hole in Libya costs the US taxpayer $1.5 million. As of today, the bill for decimating and decapitating the Libyan people came to $112 million – a small price to pay for a good old fashioned genocide. Rest assured there won’t be a peep out of Republicans as the Pentagon bounces checks to a familiar array of war profiteers.

If education was a national priority, by my calculations we could have instead paid 2,240 teachers $50,000/year and come out even on the Tomahawk expenditure.

But education is not a national priority. Neither is helping faithful ally Japan – whose citizens are tired, scared and starving. Instead, deficit-be-damned, our national priority is to bend over and lick the filthy blood-stained boots of the Rothschild-led City of London-based banking/oil/insurance/reinsurance/mining/agribusiness/pharmaceutical/et.al. syndicate, which will now steal Libya’s petroleum – on our dime.

Afghan History Suppressed: Part III: The Central Asian Grand Chessboard

20121021-172430.jpg
(Part three of a three-part series excerpted from Chapter 8: Project Frankenstein: Afhanistan: Big Oil & Their Bankers…)

20121021-172523.jpg

By Dean HENDERSON, LEFT HOOK

In 1997 ‘Trilateral Commission founder’ Zbigniew Brzezinski, the godfather of the Afghan mujahadeen, wrote a book titled, The Grand Chessboard: American Primacy and its Geopolitical Imperatives. In the book Brzezinski – who sat on the board at BP Amoco – argues that the key to global power is control of Eurasia and that the “key to controlling Eurasia is controlling the Central Asian Republics”.

Brzezinski’s plan called for ruling Central Asia via control of Uzbekistan – which borders Afghanistan to the north. In 1997 Enron attempted to negotiate a $2 billion deal with the Uzbek state-owned Neftegas with help from the Clinton White House. [1] When that effort and other privatization attempts were rebuffed in 1998, CIA-backed Islamist attacks on Uzbekistan’s government were ratcheted up.

In 1999 a series of explosions rocked the Uzbek capital of Tashkent. Islamic al-Qaeda-trained militants were to blame. The rebels – who called themselves the Islamic Party of Turkistan – attempted to assassinate socialist President Islam Karimov. They attacked the fertile Fergana Valley in an attempt to disrupt harvests and the Uzbek food supply. Karimov was also attacked by the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan and Hizb-ut-Tahrir.

After the “carpet of bombs” began raining down on neighboring Afghanistan in October 2001, Uzbekistan- along with neighbors Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan– were coerced into accepting new US military bases. In 2005 Kyrgyzstan’s nationalist President Askar Akayev was deposed by Islamists in the Tulip Revolution. Within days Donald Rumsfeld was meeting with the new leaders. [2] Karimov had seen enough and ordered US troops out of Uzbekistan.

The timing of both Brzezinski’s book and the Bush Jr. Administration “carpet of bombs” threat to the Taliban are instructive since both occurred prior to the 911 attacks, which provided the perfect pretext for the massive Central Asian intervention that Brzezinski, Bush and their City of London bosses were advocating.

Dr. Johannes Koeppl – former German Defense Ministry official and adviser to NATO Secretary General Manfred Werner – explained of this rash of “coincidences” in November 2001, “The interests behind the Bush Administration, such as the Council on Foreign Relations, the Trilateral Commission and the Bilderberger Group, have prepared for and are now implementing open world dictatorship (which will be established) within the next five years. They are not fighting against terrorists. They are fighting against citizens.”

Drugistan

Central Asia produces 75% of the world’s opium. According to the UN, the surge in opium production in the region coincided with the disintegration of the Soviet Union, which was “encouraged” by the Reagan Administration and the CIA. It also coincided with the Four Horsemen’s (Exxon Mobil, Chevron Texaco, BP Amoco & Royal Dutch/Shell) Caspian Sea oil boom.

While the US issued humiliating certifications to judge countries on their ability to stop drug traffic, Big Oil produced 90% of the chemicals needed to process cocaine and heroin, which CIA surrogates process and distribute. CIA chemists were the first to produce heroin.

At least 13 killed, dozens injured in Damascus car bombing amid UN peace envoy visit

RT

At least 13 people have been killed and 29 injured as a powerful blast hit outside a police station in Bab Touma neighborhood in the old part of Damascus, reports the state news agency. It comes as Lakhdar Brahimi visits the Syrian capital for talks.
Smoke rose above what were believed to be twin car bomb explosions in front of a police station, witnesses said. Other reports suggest it was a taxi rigged with explosives.

Ambulances were seen rushing to the scene as police shut access to the area, Twitter user NMSyria reports.

At least 13 people were killed by the blast, SANA reported citing sources in the Interior Ministry. But given that the area is usually crowded, there are fears the death toll could be much higher. It is also unclear whether any police staff are among those dead or injured.

Several cars were burnt in the blast and houses sustained extensive damage. The area was busy at the time of the explosion, with people returning from Sunday prayers. Bab Touma is a predominantly Christian neighborhood. It is also a popular shopping place in Damascus.

Two more bombings were reported to have occurred in Syria on Sunday. An explosive device, planted “by terrorists”, detonated on a road in the capital’s neighborhood, injuring several passers-by. A suicide bomber blew up his car outside a Syrian-French Hospital in the besieged city of Aleppo. The latter instance resulted in material damage only, SANA said.

Meanwhile, the UN and Arab League peace envoy Lakhdar Brahimi is in Damascus for talks. On Sunday he met with President Bashar al-Assad in a bid to arrange ceasefire for the period of the Muslim festival of Eid al-Adha, taking place next week.

“I appeal to everyone to take a unilateral decision to cease hostilities on the occasion of Eid al-Adha and that this truce be respected from today or tomorrow,” Brahimi told reporters in Damascus after meeting with Assad.

Secret deals for transfering al-Qaeda fighters, weapons from Yemen to Syria

20121004-074929.jpg

By Mohammed al-Kibsi

Hundreds of al-Qaeda fighters left Yemen to Syria to join the fight against Bashar al-Asad’s forces, said different media sources.

Yemen Observer had published a report attributed to Sheikh Tariq al-Fadhly as saying that hundreds of al-Qaeda fighters were transported from Abyan province in south Yemen to Syria.

Al-Fadli announced that there was a deal for evacuating al-Qaeda fighters from Yemen and sending them to Syria to join the fight against the Syrian regime.
He said that Saudi Arabia is sponsoring this deal and that the fighters were sent to Syria through Turkey.

“The sudden withdrawal of al-Qaeda militants from the two cities of Zinjubar and Ja’ar in Abyan province is connected to a conclusive deal recently made to have groups of armed men relocated to Syria to partake in the war against the Syrian regime, al-Fadhli told the Adenalghd local news site.
