The new Iraq since the US led invasion remains to be blighted by terrorism, sectarianism and regional powers like Turkey ignore the sovereignty of this nation when it comes to energy related issues and other important areas. Since outside nations in the Gulf region were given the “green light” to sponsor international terrorism, mercenaries and to spread radical Salafi thought patterns to Syria; then this nation is becoming reduced in power just like in Iraq. However, unlike Iraq, the nation of Syria is faced with enormous media manipulation, sanctioned terrorism, regional nations partaking in destabilizing this country and other barbaric realities like destroying the economy and infrastructure. Somehow the mass media is trying to make people believe that feudal monarchies in Qatar, Saudi Arabia and others are interested in democracy. Likewise, the mass media is trying to hide the shenanigans of the CIA, MI6 and other intelligence agencies which are fermenting the destabilization of Syria. Therefore, when Christian bishops are kidnapped, people are beheaded, minorities flee in fear, car bombings, killing media personnel and political assassination attempts are done by elements within the Free Syrian Army (FSA) and the array of different Islamist terrorist groups; then all this is brushed under the carpet in order to hide the barbaric policies of Ankara, Doha, London, Paris, Riyadh, and Washington. Iraq and Mali show that you have major splits between the forces which are destabilizing Syria. After all, Qatar and Turkey didn’t support the French led initiative of supporting the people of Mali against international terrorism, disintegration and destroying Sufi shrines. Similarly, elements within the CIA in Iraq are at a loss about the policies of the Obama administration because over 4,000 US soldiers sacrificed their lives. Yet today al-Qaeda and other terrorist forces have been given the green light to enter Syria. At the same time, the same Islamist forces have re-entered parts of Iraq where many US soldiers were killed. Apparently, the governments of America and the United Kingdom care little about their war dead because the same al-Qaeda and array of other terrorist forces are now fighting on the side of Qatar, Saudi Arabia and Turkey. Iraq is now facing a fresh sectarian nightmare because while terrorism remained within the body politic of this nation since the US led invasion; the forces of al-Qaeda and sectarianism were on the back foot. However, today in modern Iraq the forces of al-Qaeda, other terrorist networks, Salafi indoctrination and increasing sectarianism are on the march once more. This reality also highlights another Mali split because the leader of Iraq is clearly pointing the finger at regional Gulf nations and the role of Turkey. Qatar once more and other forces throughout the Gulf are at loggerheads with London, Paris, and Washington, when it comes to Iraq because leading Western nations don’t want to witness the unraveling of this nation. Despite this, regional feudal Gulf powers believe that they are outside the United Nations and other international institutions because of their petrodollars. Prime Minister Nouri Maliki of Iraq unlike regional Gulf nations and leading NATO powers fully understands the nightmare engulfing the region. Maliki stated that “Sectarianism is evil, and the wind of sectarianism does not need a license to cross from a country to another, because if it begins in a place it will move to another place.” He continued by stating that “Strife is knocking on the doors of everyone, and no-one will survive if it enters, because there is a wind behind it, and money, and plans.” Indeed, with Christian bishops currently being kidnapped by forces which are allied to Ankara, Doha, London, Paris, Riyadh, and Washington – and with vast numbers being killed in Iraq – then the current chemical issue is probably masking many recent events in order to cover-up the reality of what is happening in Iraq and Syria. Also, it is abundantly clear that the armed forces of Syria haven’t collapsed and currently new fresh approaches appear to be reinvigorating their fight against international terrorism, covert operatives and a plethora of proxy forces. Therefore, the nations meddling against Syria desire a “no fly zone” and increased funding for the array of forces against the government of Syria because Damascus remains strong. Omran Ahed al-Zouabi reported to RT that “First of all, I want to confirm that statements by the US Secretary of State and British government are inconsistent with reality and a barefaced lie…I want to stress one more time that Syria would never use it – not only because of its adherence to the international law and rules of leading war, but because of humanitarian and moral issues.” He further stated that “The US is concealing that Qatar is financing terrorists, supply weapons to them. Thus, the US is basically involved in what is happening in Syria….Their aim is, first, to cover those who are really behind (the) use of chemical weapons in Khan al-Assal, and secondly, to repeat Iraq’s scenario, to pave the way for other investigation inspections. To provide, based on their results, maps, photos of rockets and other fabricated materials to the UN, which as we know, opened the way to the occupation of Iraq.” Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya are unstable because of outside meddling but while these ongoing nightmares continue the same Gulf and NATO powers continue to destabilize other nations. Syria is blighted by this axis of evil and for the people of Iraq a new crisis is unfolding despite the last crisis never being solved in its entirety. Hundreds of thousands of people have been killed in Afghanistan, Iraq and Libya and now Syrians are dying in vast numbers because of the whims of Gulf nations and major NATO powers. The death toll keeps on rising in all the above nations alongside chaos, the decreasing rights of women and the growing menace of Salafi Islam which is bent on destroying the non-Muslim world and diversity within the Muslim world. The leader of Iraq fully understands that outside forces throughout the Gulf are involved in many dark forces. Likewise, it is ridiculous for political elites in America, France and the United Kingdom to believe that al-Qaeda and Salafi indoctrination can be contained within Syria. Of course, this policy is not only internally barbaric but now Iraq and Lebanon are facing many serious internal issues because of outside nations meddling in the affairs of Syria. Therefore, it is essential that “this madness” is curtailed because if the current axis of evil in Ankara, Doha, London, Paris, Riyadh, and Washington aren’t contained; then more nations will be destabilized and the mosaic of Syria will be lost. http://rt.com/news/syria-chemical-iraq-scenario-483/ leejay@moderntokyotimes.com http://moderntokyotimes.com
