George Herbert Walker Bush had his few wars, the 1st Gulf War was completely funded by Kuwait Royal Family and neighboring Arab states. William Jefferson Clinton failed in Somalia and Rwanda, however exerted war power over Serbia and Kosovo with NATO air power, without UN Security Council mandate. We all know George Walker Bush and his neocon minions after tasting US power in aerial bombardments of Afghanistan, they chose to waste a trilion dollars of US taxpayer money to go into Iraq. They got rid of a dictator but to their surprise heard a “thank you very much” reply out of Teheran. It’s clear the Iraq majority government is pro-Iranian and the Sunnis in Anbar province don’t like it. The Saudi government made it clear to the US government: “You owe us one.” We’ve had the Arab uprising in North Africa: Tunisia, Egypt and Libya. US and Saudi Arabia joined forces so that democracy should not happen in Bahrein where a surpressed Shia majority lives. We come to the finalnext stage of Mid-East nation building. Barack Hussein Obama is determined to be responsible for Assad’s downfall by any force. He has learned from all previous U.S. President’s Wars and is rewriting history. The military intervention will be designed by the Pentagon and CIA with funding by US oil consumers of the past (Saudi and GCC oil dollars). The boots on the grounds won’t be discrimitory: all interested parties from the Free Syrian Army, Libyan rebels, Sunni insurgents from Iraq, foreign fighters from OBL’s Al Qaeda and NATO partner Turkey. Erdogan is eager to exert some Ottoman’s power in the region. Israel was just beyond his league of operation. Each U.S. President has the right to removal of his favorite dictator, doesn’t he? U.S. corporations should be thankful for this new opportunity in spreading capitalism around the world and be sure to fill Obama’s political pockets. Any readers with family in Syria or Lebanon? I feel so desperate, there will be a bloody civil war beyond anything we have seen since the Ottoman Empire, the British and Sir Lawrence of Arabia.
U.S. aid to Syrian rebels is a signal to Iran
“In what was clearly an officially-sanctioned leak, the U.S. sent Iran a clear message just a few days before the next round of Iran-West nuclear talks in Baghdad.”
(Haaretz) – The word Iran appears only once in Wednesday’s report in the Washington Post on American assistance to rebel forces in Syria, which includes coordination of larger and much improved arms shipments. That mention was buried at the end of the long piece, almost as an aside – but Tehran’s address is written all over the report.
Administration sources emphasized to the Post that it’s not material aid either, the money and arms are coming from the Sunni Gulf states. What the U.S. is providing is “assessments of rebel credibility and command-and-control infrastructure” for the Gulf arms suppliers. Or in other words, America is the go-between, the crucial link ensuring that the most useful weaponry goes through to where the rebels need it most.
Since it’s not clear when the American aid began and from the wording of the report, it is clear that this was an officially-sanctioned leak, accurately timed to come out just a few days before senior American diplomats and other representatives of the five permanent Security Council members and Germany are to meet with a senior Iranian delegation in Baghdad.
Arms have been coming in, financed by the Saudis and other Gulf governments, earlier in a trickle but now apparently flowing, for most of that time. Until now the Obama administration has been observing a hands-off policy, denouncing President Bashar Assad and calling upon him to leave, but doing nothing to actually make that happen.
So why has the administration decided just now, not only to provide “nonlethal assistance” to the Syrian opposition, but also to announce it?
To open second front in Syria (Kurds)
The organization, which did not want to assume the attack in the first place, had to admit it upon the revelation that PKK senior official Mahmoud Muhammed was killed during the attack. Bedro was one of the major tribal leaders of the region, known for his opposition to the Ba’ath administration in Qamishli province. According to the information on a Syrian Kurdish website, it was put forward that “Syrian leader Assad, who wanted to disable the Kurdish in order to weaken the power of public opposition, used PKK to that end.” In the news, it was also stated that “Syrian state strived to establish an absolute control over the Kurdish by giving PYD, which is the back-up power of PKK, unlimited opportunities. To that end, Syria provided all the appropriate conditions for Saleh Muslim, the PYD leader sentenced to a life imprisonment, to be released and freely act with a snap decision. Meshal Temmo’s assassination was an action of this alliance.
