Air conditioned tent city, Saudi Arabia

Thierry Meyssan – During his electoral campaign, Donald Trump had declared that he had no interest in overthrowing régimes, although he intends to put an end to Islamic terrorism. Since his election, his adversaries have been attempting to force him to follow their policy – using the power of the Muslim Brotherhood to overthrow the Syrian Arab Republic.

They have used anything they could to destroy the team chosen by candidate Trump, notably by provoking the resignation of his National Security Advisor, General Michaël Flynn. In 2012, Flynn had opposed Barack Obama’s project to create Daesh, and he continued to finger the Muslim Brotherhood as the source of Islamic terrorism.

Everything has been used to present the new US President as an Islamophobe. He was criticised for having promulgated a decree forbidding entry into his country to citizens of six Muslim States. Democrat magistrates abused their functions in order to uphold this accusation. In reality, Donald Trump has suspended entry for people whose consulates are unable to verify their identity, because they are subject to civil troubles or open war.

The problem that Donald Trump has to face is not posed by the survival of the Syrian Arab Republic, but by the loss of what would represent, for certain allies of Washington, the end of the terrorist strategy. It is clearly recognized in all international conferences that all states are publicly opposed to Islamic terrorism, although in private, some of these states have been organizing it for the last 66 years.

The Refugee Crisis – Who Is To Blame?

Katherine Frisk – With the recent Brexit vote and the French election next week, the refugee crisis raging across Europe needs to be fully examined. In all things and in solving all problems, we have two choices. To deal with the symptoms or to deal with the cause. Without dealing with the cause as a first priority, a cure, a solution can never be found.

middle eastThe flooding of refugees from North Africa and the Middle East into western countries; the trauma, poverty and suffering; the camps which leave a lot to be desired; human trafficking and sex slavery which have resulted as byproducts; narcotics trafficking and organ trafficking; an increase in terrorist bombings as well as an increase in crime, sexual harassment and rape in Europe… the cause of this humanitarian disaster has not been addressed.  Only the symptoms of social and political upheaval for people on both sides of the Mediterranean.

“Politically correct” has blinded many as to the real cause on both sides of the argument.  Most Europeans are not racist bigots and most Muslims are not extremist Muslim Brotherhood Wahhabis. Those in the middle who are the majority have been buffeted on both ends for political and  economic advantage that is not in their own best interest and have been caught up in a whirlpool of chaos.

King of Saudi Arabia Agrees to Create Safe Zones for Refugees in the Middle East

Kosar – Over the weekend, there has been endless hysteria by the liberal media about President Donald Trump’s Executive Order limiting immigration from certain countries which have ties to terror. Incorrectly referred to by the biased media as a “Muslim ban,” it’s simply limiting immigration from countries chosen by Barack Obama and Congress as a security threat.

In 2015, Congress passed – and Barack Obama signed – the Visa Waiver Program Improvement and Terrorist Travel Prevention Act, listing the countries affected by President Trump’s Executive Order.

Nowhere does this ban mention “Muslims.”

The order makes a reasonable requirement that refugees must be delayed entry by 120 days while this vetting process improves. It also caps refugee admissions to 50,000 per year, roughly the number that entered America during a typical year of President George W. Bush’s administration.

Yesterday, hundreds of thousands of people from other nations traveled into the United States. But there is a real threat that some individuals posing as refugees have links to terrorism, which is why they cannot be allowed into the country without proper vetting.

This hardly looks like a “ban” at all, and the numbers speak for themselves: Continue reading →

Strange Messages From The Middle East: Part Two: Iraq

~ admin ~ Leave a comment

finjanJoseph Farrell – Yesterday, you’ll recall, I blogged about the strange statement of Russian Major General Igor Konshenkov, a statement that was clearly directed to the war party in Washington. Konshenkov, you’ll recall, stated that the Russian air and missile defense systems in Syria were now fully operational, and that they had an operational range that would be a “surprise” to Washington and to any and all “unidentified flying objects” entering Syrian airspace.

As I pointed out, the more prosaic and probable meaning of that statement was simply “any unknown” object entering Syrian airspace not supplying proper electronic “ident” or identification from transponders or in response to commands from Russian and/or Syrian authorities to identify itself (or be shot down). But, as in the case of Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova’s use of “tectonic consequences” should Washington pursue its war path, General Konshenkov’s message carried deeper and undeniable implications, for “unidentified flying objects,” he would know, carries a certain colloquial meaning in American English which is unavoidable.

That colloquial meaning is simply “flying saucer,” i.e., a nuts-and-bolts advanced technology not originating from earth or humans, and a nuts-and-bolts technology that originates from advanced human black projects. Interpreted with this in mind, General Konshenkov’s remarks take on a whole new and much deeper, mysterious, and more profound set of meanings and implications, meanings and implications that imply some “off-world, outer-space” connection to Middle Eastern geopolitics.
