The powers-that-be are trying to convert Syria into a CIA-controlled Islamic Republic. We've written about this for well over a year. There are other reasons as well, of course, but in large part the power-elite is trying to induce further tension between East and West.

The game just started. There is Al Qaida in Azawad. Al Qaida is beside rats even on Mars, most likely.

Here is more what is going on in Mali/Azawad

"France has begun a military intervention in Mali with airstrikes, responding to the country's request for assistance to counter an offensive by Islamist militants." Yep, there is about 400 Al Qaida guys within Tuaregs. This is actually output of overthrowing Gaddafi when Tuaregs took weapons and moved to their territory.

As an addendum to my previous post, here in an except for a speech made by Bashar Al-Assad to the Syrian people on January 6, 2013.

"We are fighting those, most of whom are non-Syrians, who came for twisted concepts and fake terms they call Jihad, but nothing can be farther from Jihad and Islam. Most of them are terrorists instilled with al-Qaeda thought, and I believe that most of you know how this kind of terrorism was fostered three decades ago in Afghanistan by the West and with Arabs' money. After the mission of these terrorists ended with the disintegration of the Soviet Union and its departure from Afghanistan, terrorism broke loose and started hitting everywhere in the Arab world, the Islamic world and then moved to the West. They tried to get rid of it through Afghanistan War and in the aftermath of Iraq's War, but this terrorism was unyielding and pervasive, and started to infiltrate Western societies. So, the events in the Arab world, especially in Syria, presented the Western powers with an opportunity to transfer as many terrorists as possible to Syria to turn it into the land of Jihad, hence dispensing with two troublesome rivals at the same time through getting rid of the terrorists and weakening Syria which is a nuisance for the West."

I think the real reason for these wars is the fact most democracies have devolved into pathocracies.

Back in the summer I went into a local Syrian deli, and happened to strike up a conversation with the owner and his wife over the situation in Syria. They were there in April 2012 to visit family (they are ethnic Syrians, now residing in Canada), and were visiting their home town, somewhere in the north, close to the Turkish border. They said they witnessed large volumes of "rebel" troops crossing the border from Turkey, many of whom they described as Islamic fundamentalists.

While this is common knowledge, one thing they said did surprise me. According to the couple I talked to, one dominant theme that they noted to be prevalent amongst the ideology and motivation behind these fundamentalist rebels was the belief that once Syria was "liberated", they would set up an Islamic state adherent to the fundamental principles -Sharia- of Islam.

This is interesting because in a way it validates the speculation that the elites are trying to set up an Islamic crescent in the middle east, so as to further validate the "war on terror".

These people that I talked to are themselves supporters of Assad, as well as his government. Their take on the rebels was that they were nothing more than a rag-tag group of thugs (to put it lightly), who were a threat to the true democracy of the country.

You know it may be elite who have western ties but it is not the Western Peoples they represent. We westerners are sick and tired of being used by these elite in the political arena and yet we can't seem to get away from their grip on our own nation. heck many a nation in the world are now controlled by these elite and they are not all westerners. some in fact are Iranian, Saudi Arabian and Turkish.

To lable it western western nations is a misnomer meant to cause division and strife between the west and the middle east.

Obama and Putin are definitely "owned" and could both go up in a puff of smoke as needed.

Too bad the Syrian take down is still being referred to as a revolution. It's anything but a people's uprising. It doesn't seem that in the past 50-60 years there has been a single genuine, to the barricades type revolution. Can't think of any that didn't have money power somehow influencing the new leadership. Cuba? Haiti before U.S./U.N. takeover? China? All woven into the quilt of industrial-business power.

So what about Russia and China DB? What is their part in this game? Is Putin his own man or is he owned like Obama? If so is he owned by the same people? Inquiring minds want to know.

Amazing how the US takes over a small weak country through subversion using the military and freezes their assets and most of the time steals those assetsfor their own use.

I get now. The U. S. and our NATO allies invaded Afghanistan, and have stayed there, for capitalist reasons. We wanted access to Al Qaeda so that we (and the UN, of course) could export them all over the Muslim world. I wonder when we'll get around to exporting significant numbers of them to other parts of the world?
