ISIS An American-CIA-Mossad-Saudi Intel Covert Operation

~ Fidel Castro Compares NATO to Nazi-SS, slams US, Israel for

creating ISIS'
~ US Retd Lt. Gen. Ian McInerny -We have helped create ISIS
~ US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) document obtained by Judicial
Watch under Freedom of Information confirms that the US intelligence
community foresaw the rise of ISIS three years ago, as a direct
consequence of the US support to extremist rebels in Syria. According to
the newly declassified US document, the Pentagon foresaw the likely rise
of theIslamic State as a direct consequence of the strategy, but described
this outcome as a strategic opportunity to isolate the Syrian regime.The
August 2012 Information Intelligence Report (IIR) reveals that the
overwhelming core of the Syrian insurgency at that time was dominated by
a range of Islamist militant groups, including al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI). (June
9, 2015)
~ UN Reveals Israels Support for ISIS - UN Disengagement Observer Force
(UNDOF) UN observers in the Golan Heights and was submitted to
the 15 members of the UN Security Council at the beginning of December
2014.

On the ominous thirteenth anniversary of the 9/11 WTC false flag terror
attacks that set the stage for a perpetual state of warfare, terror & chaos,
Obama once again is set to launch another series of wars. ISIS provides the
perfect raison d'etre for the re-intervention of the US-Nato occupation forces
in Iraq, Syria & the Middle-East region.
Every war against terror only leads to even more wars & more terror.
Countries such as Iraq & Syria, which had no presence of the Al Qaeda, but
after US-Nato interventions, these very terror organizations have taken root.
Far worse & fanatical organizations such as the ISIS have now grown into
veritable armies with modern advanced weaponry and thousands of footsoldiers swarming towards the hornets nest.
In our estimation the spread of terror is directly linked to certain imperialist
powers and collaborator governments, that fund, mobilize, train, provide safe
havens & weapons. These terror gangs are then deployed to achieve their
strategic objectives of global hegemony & control over natural resources,
namely Oil & Gas.
In terms of the rise of the ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq & Syria) the question that
we must ask ourselves is that, is it possible for a terrorist organization to grow
as powerful as on view, without the backing of certain nations & intelligence
agencies? This is precisely what we will seek to achieve.
Firstly there are 4 key regional & geopolitical reasons due to which
we witness a global crisis all the way from the Middle East to
Eastern Europe to the borders of Russia.

 In the
t year 20
007 large Oil & Gas finds werre discoverred in the Eastern
Mediterranean reegion, maiinly to enrrich the co
ountries naamely Syrria, Lebano

 If Russia

began to

hinged on counteering the rise
r of the axis of thee Resistan
nce, also reeferred to as
the Shitte Bloc, na
amely Iran
n, Iraq, Syyria, Leban
non, Yemeen & all the way into
o

unni-Shitee civil warr already in
n the offin
ng in
Iraq, th
he Saudis, Israel & th
he US beg
gan to operrate with m
multiple ccommon
strategiic objectiv
ves.

The Imperial-Zionist Israeli agenda was to essentially foment religious,

sectarian & ethnic divisions & civil wars, leading to the partition &
balkanization of those nations, into smaller warring statelets, to be then
controlled by an all powerful Israel. This strategy appears in three documents:
The Oded Yinon plan of 1982.
A Clean Break, Strategy for securing the realm, authored by Benjamin
Netanyahu & other Zio-Neoconservatives (1996).
The Project for the New American Century (1997).
Post 9/11, we then had the revelation by General Wesley Clark that the
Neoconservative Lobby had plans to target 7' countries in 5' years, namely
Iraq, Libya, Somalia, Syria, Lebanon, Sudan and ending with Iran.
The ideological and strategic alliance evolved during the Bush regime when in
2007 a new doctrine, referred to as the Redirection emerged. It openly
advocated targeting Iran, tilting the balance of power away from the Shite
Bloc (essentially the Resistance or the anti-Colonial Bloc vs the Colonial
Collaborator Bloc of the Arab Gulf Monarchs & Turkey) that the war on Iraq
had disturbed, widening the Sunni-Shia split, for a close alliance between US,
Saudi Arabia & Israel.
The current crisis that we are witness to, unfolded in Libya in early 2011,
where now an advanced welfare state' has been reduced to a warring Failed
State - due to rampaging US-Nato forces who armed the most fanatical
elements amongst the Islamists, including the al Qaeda. Thus there were Iraqi
fighters who fought in Libya, amongst myriad others.
The heavy weapons from the Libyan war theatre and Nato Supply bases in
Zagreb, Croatia that were transported to Southern Turkey and smuggled

across the

Jabhat al Nusra (Al

In Junee 2014, forr all practiical purposes the Jaabhat al Nu

And yet Senator John Mcain has been photographed openly hobnobbing with
the latest version of Bin Laden, al-Bakr al Baghdadi 2.0.
Haaretz (Feb 2014): Reported that the US, Saudi, Jordan & Israel were all in
the process of helping the Syrian rebels plan an attack on Southern Syria.
Israel has also provided direct assistance in military operations.

w
Then another
a
question
q
n we are frequentl
f
ly asked-- why affter
creatin
ng the IS
SIS, as yo
ou say, is the US b
bombing its own c
creation?
It's onlyy a repeat of recent history. The
T US entthroned Saaddam in 1963, used
d
him aga
ainst Iran and then destroyed
d him and similarly w
with the A
Al Qaeda &
the Taliiban in Affghanistan
n. Yet we teend to forgget . . . unffortunatelly.

US Sen
nator Lindssey Graha
am warns of
o a comin
ng 9/11 atttack. Fear Mongerin
ng to
justify the
t wars in
n the Midd
dle-East iss part of th
he Neocon
nservativee-Zionist
strategyy.

The strategy is essentially to:

Build up a dictator or an extremist group/s to be used to wage proxy

wars against opponents. During this phase, crimes committed by proxies are
swept under the carpet Problem.

Then after the nasty bad guys' have outlived their usefulness & served

their purpose, then it's time to pull the plug & demonise them for all their
barbarism. This works well when the public has no clue as to where these
nasty bad guys' come from the first place Reaction.

Finally when the public finally begs the government to do something, a

solution is proposed. This would usually mean military intervention couched

in a humanitarian framework. This also leads to the reduction of freedoms in
our nations & societies Solution.
Thus the ISIS has proved invaluable to the US-Nato strategic gameplan as
there now exists a popular support back home to neutralize the ISIS threat
that supposedly poses a threat to America. Therefore ISIS has provided a
perfect alibi for the US-Nato forces to return back to the region as part of its
re-colonization programme.
ISIS has also proved very useful in the Syrian theatre as today the ISIS does
control upto 30% of territory and provides the perfect pretext for the US to
invade Syria. The US-Nato allies could possibly enforce a no-fly zone in the
ISIS held areas, thus preventing any role for the sovereign state & the Syrian
Arab Army. As the ISIS retreats in the face of US bombing, that very territory
would be handed over to the FSA & Jabhat al Nusra-Qaeda militants &
mercenaries, surely with many ISIS mercenaries morphing into moderate
rebels.

Thus effectively partitioning Syria!

The Syrian government has stated that they will not bear the violation of their
sovereignty & Russia too has warned the US on this count.
Entrap Russia: It was also in this very period that the Russian-US-Nato crisis
over Ukraine began to emerge as a serious situation that could lead to a
regional or a global war.
The steps to counter ISIS are as follows:

Work towards national political solutions, power sharing, constitutional

democratic reforms, free & fair elections - to avoid civil wars, through regional
& international mediation, whilst limiting the role of the US-EU & Nato
institutions & military forces.

Stop the physical routes from across the Turkish, Jordan, Israel, Iraq &

Lebanon into Syria.

Shut down all safe-havens & camps active in Saudi, Jordan, Qatar,

Turkey, Israel & all other destinations.

Shut down all sources of funding from Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain,

Turkey & supply of weapons from US, Britain, France & other Western
sources.

Support the Governments battling this terror plague with satellite &

intelligence reports so that the Army can perform better.

Stop media propaganda & hate speech to stem the tide of publicity,

hatred & fear.

Identify & prosecute all those governments & private sources that are

funding & arming terrorists so that a precedent is set.

Thus the regional & the international situation is indeed fraught with danger,
even as the US-Nato forces continue with their belligerence & war mongering.
There is a need for an international alliance to counter the political, financial
& military hegemony of the Western Imperial-Zionist axis. There is also a dire
need for the popular resistance forces to counter the religious fanaticism that
is being foisted within our societies by anti-democratic religious regressive
obscurantist extremists who only weaken & divide our common struggles.
These are the very elements that are indoctrinated to fight the proxy wars.
There is thus a dire need for spiritual democracies to emerge as a counter to
illiberal & regressive religious fanatics much in the spirit of liberation
theology. Where religion is redeemed from fanatics & texts interpreted with an
all encompassing vision of love, compassion, universalism, mutual-respect &
equality - thus liberating humanity from the religion & culture of fear, hatred
and violence.
