Iraq under Threat from Trump, ISIS Prisoners from Syria, and Possible US-Iran War

Posted by: John Phoenix Global Research, Iraq has reached a decisive moment, caught between escalating U.S. pressure, unresolved internal political deadlock, and mounting regional tensions linked to Iran. Following a high-level phone call between U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio and Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia’ Al-Sudani, Washington has signaled a recalibration of its Iraq policy—combining military drawdown with unprecedented financial leverage—while accelerating the transfer of thousands of ISIS detainees from Syria into Iraqi custody.

Zionist Expansion: A First-Hand Account of Israel’s Illegal Occupation of Southwestern Syria

The Israeli forces “rode in jeeps, hummers, armored personnel carriers, Merkava tanks,” into the rural hamlet in southern Quneitra province, said Mohammed, who declined to give his last name out of fear of reprisal for speaking to the media. The border is the “Purple Line,” a ceasefire line imposed after the 1967 war in which Israel conquered a slic...

Ron Paul on Crazy Foreign Policy: White House To Host Former al Qaeda Leader

Posted by: John Phoenix On today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report: https://youtu.be/_ksUwmN-GYg It is the insanity of US foreign policy in a nutshell that self-styled Syrian 'president' Ahmed al-Sharaa is to be welcomed to the White House. Just before his (US-aided) rise to power in Syria last year he was head of the local al-Qaeda branch in Syria. Before that he worked with al-Qaeda in Iraq and is responsible for the death of numerous US service members. by Ron Paul and Daniel McAdams

US To Establish Military Base in Damascus

Posted by: John Phoenix According to Reuters, the purpose of the military presence will be to help enable a security deal between Israel and Syria by Dave DeCamp The US is planning to establish a military base in Damascus, Syria, Reuters has reported, as the Trump administration continues to strongly back the new Syrian government that’s led by former al-Qaeda leader Ahmed al-Sharaa. The report said that the US will establish a military presence at an airbase on the outskirts of the Syrian capital for the purpose of enabling a security pact that Washington is attempting to broker between Israel and Syria. The idea would be for the US military to monitor a potential deal that would include the demilitarization of areas to the south of Damascus. Officials compa...

Syria “Liberated” by its own Destroyers

Posted by: John Phoenix By: Global Research, Abu Mohammed al-Jolani, today’s de facto ruler of Damascus, has an eloquent history: he began his jihadist militancy in al-Qaeda’s ranks as an associate of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the “caliph” who founded ISIS, the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria, in 2013. In 2011, during the preparatory phase, al-Baghdadi sent him to Syria with large sums of money for the creation of the al-Nusra Front, a formally autonomous faction but in reality, part of the Islamic State. The al-Jolani faction has been involved in the US-NATO operation to destroy the Syrian state since its inception. One of the reasons for this operation is the fact that in July 2011 Syria, Iran and Iraq signed an agreement for a pipeline that would connect ...

America’s Syrian Civil War

By: Ron Paul As Syria descends into full-scale civil war, with more than a thousand people killed in just the last few days, it may be a good time to remember the phrase, “Assad must go.” That was the slogan the regime-changers rolled out some 14 years ago during the “Arab Spring” that was supposed to usher liberal democracies into power throughout the region. From Tunisia to Egypt to Libya and on to Syria, the plan was to remake the Middle East according to the will of Washington’s “master planners.” The State Department, the media, the Pentagon, and the think tanks fed by the military-industrial complex were all enthusiastically on-board the program because making war and overthrowing governments is their bread and butter. If the United States pursued a foreign policy of n...

Syria: CIA-MI6 Intel Ops and Sabotage

Posted by: John Phoenix This incisive article by veteran war correspondent Felicity Arbuthnot was published by Global Research more than six years ago, on February 2, 2012. You will not read it in the New York Times. At a time of mounting media fabrications –when “objective truths are fading” and “lies are passing into history”– this analysis reveals the diabolical modus operandi of US-NATO terrorism and how covert intelligence ops are applied to trigger conditions which are conducive to the collapse of nation states. One of these “conditions” is the outright killing of innocent civilians as part of a cover operation and then blaming president Bashar Al Assad of having committed atrocities against his own people —Mich...

Sectarian Slaughters in “New Syria”

Posted by: John Phoenix In 2016, elected Syrian President Bashar al-Assad presciently cautioned that, “Their plan was to undermine the constitution and then unleash absolute chaos—chaos that could only be resolved by imposing an ethnically and sectarian-based constitution. This would turn us from a people united by their homeland into fragmented groups, each clinging to its sect and seeking help from outsiders against its own fellow citizens and brothers ….” “A sectarian system turns citizens of the same country into enemies and rivals,” he said, “And wherever there are enemies and rivals, each side will seek allies. In such a scenario, those allies will not be found within Syria—or within any homeland, for that matter—because relationships [between these...

Syrian election: Assad victory is gall to imperialism

Posted by: John Phoenix May’s presidential election in Syria was won resoundingly by the incumbent president, Bashar al-Assad, who secured 95.1 percent of the vote on a turnout of 78.6 percent. The polling went ahead at over 12,100 polling centres across the country, whilst Syrian refugees and expats cast an early ballot in the embassies of their host countries. A total of 18 million Syrians at home and abroad were registered to vote in the election. Syria’s foreign ministry thanked the expats and refugees for their massive participation in the presidential election. Many of these are hampered from returning home by obstacles placed by the West on the path to reconstruction, and it is welcome that they have seized the opportunity to help choose the ruler for the next seven y...

The sad downfall of the Syrian government

Posted by: John Phoenix At long last, US imperialism and its surrogate in the Middle East, Israel, have, at least temporarily, achieved their long-held dream of overthrowing the Syrian government headed by Bashar al-Assad. In the latest instalment of the conflict between Syria and the US-Israel combine, events unfolded in a way, and with a speed, no-one had expected. The jihadi head-chopping, throat-slitting, heart-eating serial rapists and torturers broke out of their haven in the province of Idlib and launched their assault on 27 November, capturing within a week Aleppo (the second largest city in Syria), Hama (the third largest), followed by Homs and the capital Damascus on the 8th of December. The fall of Damascus within 12 days and the flight of Assad to Moscow...
