Geschorste ambtenaar blijft erbij: terreurorganisatie IS complot zionisten


De ambtenaar die twitterde: 'ISIS heeft niets met Islam te maken.. is vooropgezet plan van zionisten die bewust Islam willen zwart maken', is met onmiddellijke ingang geschorst. Dat is vandaag besloten na overleg op het ministerie van Veiligheid en Justitie. Ambtenaar Yasmina Haifi neemt haar uitspraken niet terug, zei ze op Radio 1.
Het ministerie en de Nationaal Coördinator Terrorismebestrijding en Veiligheid (NCTV) nemen 'volstrekt afstand' van de uitlatingen...
Op Radio1 zei ze vandaag dat de vrijheid van meningsuiting kennelijk maar voor bepaalde groepen telt. 'Ik heb de vrijheid genomen me te uiten en kennelijk moet ik daar voor boeten. Ik zou niet weten waarom ik er afstand van zou moeten nemen. Dit is wat ik vind.'

Verder zei ze: 'Kennelijk mogen bepaalde zaken niet worden gezegd. Ik heb geen menig gegeven. Ik heb dat over het zionisme niet zelf verzonnen maar er talloze artikelen over gelezen.' 
Vicepremier Lodewijk Asscher (PvdA) sprak eerder al zijn schande uit over de uitspraak. “Mijn maag keerde om toen ik het hoorde.”
                                              Ons kent ons.


Now let us examine in more detail the Al Nusrah Front, which constitutes the main rebel fighting force in Syria. Al Nusrah is affiliated to Al Qaeda. The leader of Al Nusra, Abu Mohammad al-Golani, has pledged his allegiance to Al-Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, who replaced Osama bin Laden after his death.
According to the State Department Bureau of Counter-terrorism, Jabhat al Nusrah, the main rebel force in Syria is a terrorist organization, an affiliate of Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI).
The State Department has issued a “prohibition against knowingly providing, or attempting or conspiring to provide, material support or resources to, or engaging in transactions with, al-Nusrah Front, and the freezing of all property and interests in property of the organization that are in the United States, or come within the United States or the control of U.S. persons.” (emphasis added).
It is understood that US State Department Counter-terrorism policy also applies to “state sponsors of terrorism”.
Al Nusrah is financed by Turkey, Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Israel in close consultation with NATO and the Pentagon.
The Obama administration has openly confirmed its support for the Syrian rebels with most of this aid channeled to Al Nusrah.
The PATRIOT Act “prohibits knowingly harboring persons who have committed or are about to commit a variety of terrorist offenses”.
Moreover, an entire gamut of executive orders as well as the 2001 Patriot legislation prohibit “the harboring of terrorists”.
According to the US Justice Department:

The Patriot Act imposed tough new penalties on those who commit and support terrorist operations, both at home and abroad.” The terror threat emanates both from “the terrorist who pays for a bomb as by the one who pushes the button”.
According to the Patriot legislation, those “who pay for the bomb”, namely funding affiliates of Al Qaeda, constitutes a terrorist act.
In other words, the Obama administration and its allies are harboring a terror organization which is on the US State department list.
In this regard, President Obama and Secretary of State John Kerry could be held responsible for “knowingly providing, or attempting or conspiring to provide, material support or resources to, or engaging in transactions with, al-Nusrah Front”:
“The [PATRIOT] Act created a new offense that prohibits knowingly harboring persons who have committed or are about to commit a variety of terrorist offenses”, yet the Obama administration is openly supporting a terrorist entity, in violation of its own counter-terrorism legislation.
Media Complicity
According to CNN, quoting intelligence sources, Al Nusrah is “the best-equipped arm of the terror group” in Syria, with an estimated 10,000 forces. Where do they get their money and weapons? CNN does not provide any details as to Why Al Nusrah is the best equipped, in relation to the various so-called moderate rebels factions, which from a military standpoint are broadly inoperative.
How many of these Al Nusrah forces remain operative following the government’s counteroffensive remains to be established.
Ironically, this latest CNN report (June 18, 2013 suggests that the rebels rather than the government have chemical weapons in their possession:

“They [Al Nusrah] are making desperate attempts to get chemical weapons,” the analyst told CNN, noting that in the past few weeks, security services in Iraq and Turkey arrested [Al Nusrah] operatives who were “trying to get their hands on sarin.”
In relation to the later, Turkish Police confirmed that the arrested Al Nusrah operative was in possession of sarin gas.
CNN contradicts its own reports. The same CNN article which intimated that the rebels were “attempting to get” chemical weapons, makes the case for “arming the rebels”:

The Obama administration announced last week that it will start arming rebels because Syria crossed a “red line” by using chemical weapons — including sarin gas — against the opposition.
The development is likely to be at the center of the Group of Eight summit in Northern Ireland on Monday, setting a riveting backdrop to the meeting after Syria’s longtime ally Russia said the move supports “those who kill their enemies and eat their organs.”
…Obama has not detailed the increased military support, but Washington officials told CNN that the plan includes providing small arms, ammunition and possibly anti-tank weapons to the rebels.

Tape Shows Israelis Training Cartels' Killers

August 30, 1989|KENNETH FREED | Times Staff Writer
BOGOTA, Colombia — Experienced Israeli instructors trained private paramilitary units whose members included a leader of the Medellin drug cartel's death squads, blamed in the killings this month of four judges and nine court workers, according to a videotape prepared by the Israelis themselves.
The 48-minute color videotape clearly showed former Israeli army Col. Yair Klein running military and assassination training exercises for about 50 men, including one known as Vladimir. Other foreigners speaking Hebrew were shown and heard on the videotape.
Laten we een tipje van de sluier oplichten. De geopolitiek en realpolitik van een grootmacht. In 1998 verklaarde Zbigniew Brzezinski, de Nationale Veiligheids Adviseur onder president Carter, tegenover het Franse weekblad Le Nouvel Observateur dat de Verenigde Staten voorafgaand aan 1980 de voormalige Sovjet Unie bewust had geprovoceerd om Afghanistan binnen te vallen door in het geheim islamitische extremisten in dat land financieel en militair te steunen, zodat ze een gewapende strijd tegen de pro-Sovjet regering konden beginnen. Op de vraag of hij daar nu geen spijt van had, antwoordde Brzezinski:
Spijt waarover? Die geheime operatie was een uitstekend idee. Het had als resultaat dat de Russen in de Afghaanse val trapten en wil je dat ik dat betreur? De dag dat de Sovjets officieel de grens waren over gestoken, schreef ik aan president Carter, in essentie: ‘We hebben nu de gelegenheid om de USSR zijn eigen Vietnam Oorlog te geven.’
Deze Amerikaanse politiek-militaire strategie kostte aan een miljoen Afghanen het leven, maakte drieënhalf miljoen Afghanen tot vluchteling en verwoeste de infrastructuur van het toch al arme land, waar volgens de officiële CIA-cijfers meer dan de helft van de bevolking onder de armoedegrens leeft. En nadat de Sovjet-troepen zich hadden moeten terugtrekken, liet de Verenigde Staten Afghanistan weer vallen als een baksteen om het ruim een decennium later zelf aan te vallen met als leugen dat Osama bin Laden het meesterbrein was achter de aanslagen van 11 september 2001. Tegen de zin van Afghanistan zelf, nam de NAVO de Amerikaanse bezetting van het land naderhand over. Dat Afghanistan hierop tegen was is een feit dat door de westerse mainstream verzwegen wordt.
Het zal iedere onafhankelijke waarnemer duidelijk zijn dat al heel lang een doortrapt geopolitiek spel wordt gespeeld over de ruggen van de Afghaanse bevolking, met als gevolg: de miljoenen slachtoffers in een land dat een onvoorstelbare chaos is geworden, waarbij krijgsheren aan de touwtjes trekken onder de schijnbare leiding van de corrupte president Hamid Karzai, een voormalige ingehuurde adviseur van de Amerikaanse oliemaatschappij Unocal, die door het modehuis Gucci tot de best geklede staatsman ter wereld werd uitgeroepen. De slechtst vermomde marionet op aarde is de salonfähige icoon van het ‘nieuwe democratische Afghanistan.’
Amerikaanse soldaten die de opiumvelden ongestoord laten.
Nadat de NAVO, onder aanvoering van de VS haar Afghaanse bondgenoten, de corrupte en meedogenloze krijgsheren die financieel en militair door het Westen worden gesteund, aan de macht had geholpen, steeg volgens de Verenigde Naties de opiumproduktie in Afghanistan razendsnel, waardoor het land nu meer dan 90 procent produceert van de grondstof voor heroine, bron van een handel die de krijgsheren schatrijk maakt, en die de Taliban de fondsen oplevert om wapens te kunnen kopen, zoals Amerikaanse autoriteiten hebben toegegeven.
Afghanistan has been the greatest illicit opium producer in the entire world, ahead of Burma (Myanmar), the Golden Triangle’, and Latin America since 1992, excluding the year 2001. [1] Afghanistan is the main producer of opium in the ‘Golden Crescent’.  Opium production in Afghanistan has been on the rise since U.S. occupation started in 2001. Based on UNODC data, there has been more opium poppy cultivation in each of the past four growing seasons (2004–2007) than in any one year during Taliban rule. Also, more land is now used for opium in Afghanistan than for coca cultivation in Latin America. In 2007, 92% of the non-pharmaceutical-grade opiates on the world market originated in Afghanistan. [2] This amounts to an export value of about $4 billion, with a quarter being earned by opium farmers and the rest going to district officials, insurgents, warlords, and drug traffickers. [3] In the seven years (1994–2000) prior to a Taliban opium ban, the Afghan farmers' share of gross income from opium was divided among 200,000 families. [4] In addition to opiates, Afghanistan is also the largest producer of cannabis (mostly as hashish) in the world.[5][6]

AFGHANISTAN: TROOPS GUARDING THE POPPY FIELDS



Hoe is het te verklaren dat de westerse mainstream journalistiek, de ‘Europa-deskundigen,’ de ‘Amerika-deskundigen,’ de westerse opiniemakers en de westerse politici hier geen serieus onderzoek naar doen? Hoe komt het dat de VS met, hun ‘voortreffelijke informatiesystemen’ en ‘briljante strategen en politieke analisten’ (Geert Mak) de Taliban indirect bewapent door de uitgestrekte papervelden niet te vernietigen? En vanwaar de ‘conspiracy of silence’ van de mainstream opiniemakers?

UN: Afghan opium poppy cultivation up 18 percent
By HEIDI VOGT | Associated Press – Tue, Nov 20, 2012 10:18 AM EST

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP)… Afghanistan is the world's largest producer of opium, the raw ingredient in heroin, providing about 80 percent of the global crop. Crop sales fund insurgents and criminal gangs in Afghanistan, making it difficult for the Afghan government to establish control in areas where the economy is driven by black-market opium sales.

Farmers planted 154,000 hectares of opium poppy in 2011, up from the 131,000 in 2011.

‘An increase of 18 percent is a serious alarm signal. It is a wakeup call,’ said Jean-Luc Lemahieu, head of the U.N. Office on Drugs and Crime in Afghanistan, which prepared the report along with the Afghan Counternarcotics Ministry.

Het mag dan wel een ‘serious alarm signal’ zijn voor drugsbestrijders, maar geenszins voor de NAVO die de uitgestrekte papavervelden niet bombardeert met napalm of met een ontbladeringsmiddelen, zoals de VS in Vietnam op grote schaal deed, noch met  herbiciden, zoals ze nu nog steeds doen met de coca-velden in Zuid-Amerika. Waarom treedt men niet op? Sinds de illegale Amerikaanse en Britse inval in 2001 is volgens de United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC) de productie van opium in Afghanistan van 185 ton omhoog geschoten naar 5800 ton in 2011, een bijna verdertigvoudiging, terwijl het land doorkruist wordt door westerse militairen en waar -- let op -- Nederlandse instructeurs er de politie opleidden. Ondertussen bericht  het UNODC al jarenlang dat:

the Taliban and other anti-government forces are making massive amounts of money from the drug business. In Afghanistan, authorities impose a charge (called ushr) on economic activity, traditionally set at 10% of income. Opium farming may have generated $50-$70 million of such income in 2008. Furthermore, levies imposed on opium processing and trafficking may have raised an additional $200-$400 million. 'With so much drug-related revenue, it is not surprising that the insurgents' war machine has proven so resilient, despite the heavy pounding by Afghan and allied forces', said the Executive Director of UNODC, Antonio Maria Costa.

Dit feit is onomstreden en wordt door zowel Amerikaanse generaals, de CIA, de DEA als door Amerikaanse Congresleden keer op keer gemeld. Desondanks onderneemt de NAVO  niets hiertegen. Sterker nog:


WASHINGTON — The U.S. Army has investigated 56 soldiers in Afghanistan on suspicion of using or distributing heroin, morphine or other opiates during 2010 and 2011, newly obtained data shows. Eight soldiers died of drug overdoses during that time.

While the cases represent just a slice of possible drug use by U.S. troops in Afghanistan, they provide a somber snapshot of the illicit trade in the war zone, including young Afghans peddling heroin, soldiers dying after mixing cocktails of opiates, troops stealing from medical bags and Afghan soldiers and police dealing drugs to their U.S. comrades.

In a country awash with poppy fields that provide up to 90 percent of the world’s opium, the U.S. military struggles to keep an eye on its far-flung troops and monitor for substance abuse.  Photos of U.S. and Afghan Troops Patrolling Poppy Fields June 2012

Nieuw record opiumproductie met dank aan Afghanistan 

AP WENEN


De opiumproductie is vorig jaar wereldwijd tot een nieuwe recordhoogte gestegen, vooral door een toename van ongeveer 49 procent in Afghanistan. Dat zegt het in Wenen gevestigde VN-Bureau voor Drugs en Misdaad in een dinsdag verschenen jaarverslag. Het VN-bureau verwacht een verdere toename in het lopende jaar. Opium is het belangrijkste bestanddeel van heroïne. De productie in Afghanistan nam vorig jaar toe van 4.100 ton naar 6.100 ton. Het Afghaanse aandeel in de wereldwijde productie steeg van 52 procent in 1990 en 70 procent in 2000 tot maar liefst 92 procent in 2006. Het areaal voor de verbouw van papaver – de bloem die de grondstof levert voor opium – groeide in Afghanistan van 104 duizend hectare in 2005 tot 165 duizend hectare in 2006, een toename van 59 procent. De papaverteelt in Afghanistan concentreert zich in het zuiden, voornamelijk in de provincie Helmand.
Overigens is de connectie tussen oorlog en drugs geen nieuw fenomeen zoals de Amerikaanse historicus Alfred W. McCoy in Politics of Heroin in Southeast Asia al in 1972 aantoonde:
Its most groundbreaking feature was its documentation of CIA complicity and aid to the Southeast Asian opium/heroin trade; along with McCoy’s Congressional testimony, its initially controversial thesis has gained a degree of mainstream acceptance. The central idea is that at the time, the vast majority of heroin produced was produced in the Golden Triangle, from which:
‘It is transported in the planes, vehicles, and other conveyances supplied by the United States. The profit from the trade has been going into the pockets of some of our best friends in Southeast Asia. The charge concludes with the statement that the traffic is being carried on with the indifference if not the closed-eye compliance of some American officials and there is no likelihood of its being shut down in the foreseeable future.’[2]
Air America, which was covertly owned and operated by the CIA, was used for this transport, in particular. At the same time, the heroin supply was partly responsible for the parlous state of US Army morale in Vietnam: ‘By mid 1971 Army medical officers were estimating that about 10 to 15 per cent… of the lower ranking enlisted men serving in Vietnam were heroin users.’[3]
Having interviewed Maurice Belleux, former head of the French SDECE intelligence agency, Mc Coy also uncovered parts of the French Connection scheme, as the French military agency had financed all of its covert operations, during the First Indochina War, from its control of the Indochina drug trade [4].

Oorlog en dus het Amerikaanse militair industrieel complex (Eisenhower) maakt dit allemaal mogelijk en vernietigt meer dan alleen de landen waarin het uitgevochten wordt. De Vietnamoorlog bijvoorbeeld heeft het drugsprobleem in het Westen immens vergroot, en het succes van een wereldwijd opererende mafia, van wie de miljarden nu in de officiële westerse economie circuleert en alles besmet, heeft ook een kongsi van gangsters en corrupte ambtenaren gesmeed die hun eigen ongecontroleerde politiek uitvoert, en het westerse militair industrieel complex nog machtiger gemaakt. Dit proces wordt nu alleen maar gestimuleerd, vooral nu met heroine-geld de 'illegale' wapenhandel wordt gefinancierd. Ook de wapens voor de guerrilla moeten immers betaald worden.
De Amerikaanse terreur in Afghanistan, van het aan de macht houden van gangsters tot het urineren over gedode Afghanen, werd opgevolgd door de Amerikaanse terreur van Abu Ghraib tot de de inzet van fosfor in de stad Fallujah. Ruim een decennium na het begin van de illegale Amerikaanse en Britse inval in Irak is de algemene opinie dat de westerse agressie in Irak een van de grootste politieke rampen is geweest sinds 1945. Zo schreef de Amerikaanse journalist Chris Floyd 16 maart 2013 onder de kop ‘Barbarian Rhapsody: Ten Years Deeper Into Hell’ het volgende:

All forms of political media -- in print, on line, on the air -- have been awash in recent weeks with retrospectives on the tenth anniversary of the American-led invasion of Iraq in March 2003. Amidst the mountainous heap of drivel and falsehood such an occasion inevitably produces among the vast and vapid army of analysts who happily spend their days chewing the cud of whatever happens to be the conventional wisdom of the day, there have been a few outstanding pieces that put this continuing war crime in stark perspective.

One of the better short pieces I've seen on the subject comes from -- of all people -- an actual Iraqi. Sami Ramadani, a dissident forced into exile by Saddam, has been one of the most insightful observers -- and vociferous opponents -- of the atrocities inflicted on his country by Western elites and their local collaborators (including, of course, for many decades, Saddam Hussein). From the Guardian:

Ten years on from the shock and awe of the 2003 Bush and Blair war – which followed 13 years of murderous sanctions, and 35 years of Saddamist dictatorship – my tormented land, once a cradle of civilisation, is staring into the abyss.

Wanton imperialist intervention and dictatorial rule have together been responsible for the deaths of more than a million people since 1991. And yet, according to both Tony Blair and the former US secretary of state Madeleine Albright, the ‘price is worth it’. Blair, whom most Iraqis regard as a war criminal, is given VIP treatment by a culpable media. Iraqis listen in disbelief when he says: ‘I feel responsibility but no regret for removing Saddam Hussein.’ (As if Saddam and his henchmen were simply whisked away, leaving the people to build a democratic state). It enrages us to see Blair build a business empire, capitalising on his role in piling up more Iraqi skulls than even Saddam managed.

As an exile, I was painfully aware of Saddam's crimes, which for me started with the disappearance from Baghdad's medical college of my dearest school friend, Hazim. The Iraqi people are fully aware, too, that Saddam committed all his major crimes while an ally of western powers. On the eve of the 2003 invasion I wrote this for the Guardian:

‘In Iraq, the US record speaks for itself: it backed Saddam's party, the Ba'ath, to capture power in 1963, murdering thousands of socialists, communists and democrats; it backed the Ba'ath party in 1968 when Saddam was installed as vice-president; it helped him and the Shah of Iran in 1975 to crush the Kurdish nationalist movement; it increased its support for Saddam in 1979…helping him launch his war of aggression against Iran in 1980; it backed him throughout the horrific eight years of war (1980 to 1988), in which a million Iranians and Iraqis were slaughtered, in the full knowledge that he was using chemical weapons and gassing Kurds and Marsh Arabs; it encouraged him in 1990 to invade Kuwait…; it backed him in 1991 when Bush [senior] suddenly stopped the war, exactly 24 hours after the start of the great March uprising that engulfed the south and Iraqi Kurdistan…’

But when it was no longer in their interests to back him, the US and UK drowned Iraq in blood.

…We haven't even counted the dead yet, let alone the injured, displaced and traumatised. Countless thousands are still missing. Of the more than 4 million refugees, at least a million are yet to go back to their homeland, and there still about a million internal refugees. On an almost daily basis, explosions and shootings continue to kill the innocent. … Lack of electricity, clean water and other essential services continues to hit millions of impoverished and unemployed people, in one of the richest countries on the planet. Women and children pay the highest price. Women's rights, and human rights in general, are daily suppressed.

And what of democracy, supposedly the point of it all? The US-led occupying authorities nurtured a ‘political process’ and a constitution designed to sow sectarian and ethnic discord. Having failed to crush the resistance to direct occupation, they resorted to divide-and-rule to keep their foothold in Iraq. Using torture, sectarian death squads and billions of dollars, the occupation has succeeded in weakening the social fabric and elevating a corrupt ruling class that gets richer by the day, salivating at the prospect of acquiring a bigger share of Iraq's natural resources, which are mostly mortgaged to foreign oil companies and construction firms.

Warring sectarian and ethnic forces, either allied to or fearing US influence, dominate the dysfunctional and corrupt Iraqi state institutions, but the US embassy in Baghdad – the biggest in the world – still calls the shots. Iraq is not really a sovereign state, languishing under the punitive Chapter VII of the UN charter.

Yes, it has certainly been, as Barack Obama memorably characterized it, a ‘remarkable achievement.’ It is also, more and more, a forgotten ‘achievement.’ America's amnesia regarding the war crime in Iraq and its continuing ramifications -- not only the repression and death still going on there, but also the catastrophic impact of this atrocity on America itself, including the tsunami of suicide, homelessness and PTSD among its soldiers, and the back-breaking costs of this orgy of corruption and war-profiteering -- is indeed remarkable. It is no longer a reality -- a living, anguished, ongoing human tragedy -- but simply fodder for commentary, for partisan point-scoring, for barroom blather. This has always been the case with our misbegotten wars of imperial domination (for an especially acute and egregious example of our chronic amnesia, see this review of Nick Turse's new book, Kill Anything That Moves: The Real American War in Vietnam), going back to the 19th century. And the "paradigm-changing" iadvent of the internet has done nothing to change that; despite today's easy access to unprecedented levels of information about the realities of the Iraq war (and other high crimes and atrocities), the amnesia and willful ignorance remains as profound as ever.

So here we are. Ten years on from the frenzied paroxysm (or was it an orgasm?) of mass violence -- which was itself the culmination of years of the bipartisan war-by-sanctions that American officials have openly acknowledged killed more than half a million Iraqi children -- what is the central "moral" issue of our national politics today? This once-unimaginable, horribly depraved and obscene question: Should the president be allowed to murder any American citizen he chooses, or should there perhaps be be some kind of secret Congressional oversight of the secret killing program? (The idea of restricting the president's power to kill any filthy foreigner he chooses is not in question anywhere in our national politics, of course; Rand Paul wasn't filibustering against that idea. No, any debate on the ‘ethics’ of state murder is restricted to its application to Americans, who, as we know, are the only fully human beings on the face of the earth.)

Given the current trajectory of our plunge into barbarism, I predict that in just a few years we'll be ‘debating’ whether the president has the right to stick the severed heads of ‘terrorists’ on spikes outside the White House, or if the heads should be passed around discreetly to members of the relevant Senate committees before being dumped in the ocean.


Amerikaanse 'ordebewakers' urineren op dode Afghanen.

Kortom, wat blijft er over van de mainstream-veronderstelling, die door Geert Mak zo fraai is verwoord, dat de VS sinds 1945

decennialang als ordebewaker en politie agent [fungeerde]?

Niets, helemaal niets, zoals we ook kunnen constateren in de 21ste eeuw. Wat plannen de Amerikaanse militairen voor de toekomst van de mensheid? In elk geval: het beschermen van de belangen van de rijke elite en daar hoeft de volksvertegenwoordiging niet eens aan te pas te komen zoals uit het volgende blijkt:

NATO Defence Chiefs Discuss Afghanistan, Partnerships And Transformation

(May 15, 2013)


NATO Chiefs of Defence reaffirmed their commitment to support the ISAF Commander over the next 19 months, which will be crucial in determining the outcome of the mission.

The Military Committee also discussed opportunities to deepen military-to-military cooperation with NATO Partners. Delving into transformation, they expressed support for ongoing and future initiatives, particularly Smart Defence and the Connected Forces, to achieve best value for money while building on lessons learned from operations.

As the Alliance approaches the completion of the ISAF campaign, NATO’s mission in Afghanistan is entering a new phase. Its primary role is changing from combat to support.

'NATO and Partner Chiefs of Defence acknowledge the increased capability of the Afghan National Security Forces to provide security for their country,' said General Knud Bartels, Chairman of NATO’s Military Committee.

'Transition therefore remains on track and our assessment is on the whole positive,' stressedthe General. NATO Chiefs of Defence also discussed Afghanistan post-2014 and the new mission, Resolute Support. 'We made good progress and details on the Concept of Operations for the new mission will be finalized in the coming weeks, ready for the Defence Ministers to discuss next month,' the Chairman said.
En terwijl spreekbuizen van de macht blijven beweren dat de VS 'de ordebewaker' is in de wereld zal het grote publiek niet snel op de hoogte raken van wat er werkelijk gebeurt en kunnen de leiders van de 'vrije wereld' ongestoord doorgaan met hun genocidale politiek, waarbij nu 85 miljardairs evenveel bezitten als de straatarme helft van de mensheid.


Ondertussen blijft de 'conspiracy of silence' van de westerse mainstream opiniemakers  volop in werking. En telkens weer zal er een nieuwe vijand uit de hoge hoed worden getoverd voor de ademloos toekijkende mainstream-pers, die werkelijk elke leugen zal opdissen, zonder zelf eigen gedegen onderzoek te doen. Dit gaat net zo lang door tot het niet meer kan, en dan volgt de ineenstorting. Zo simpel zal het gaan. Maar gelukkig voor de domoren zal die ontwikkeling de maag van vicepremier Asscher niet omkeren. Hij heeft wel wat anders aan zijn hoofd: de rehabilitatie van zijn familienaam.
