Libya 2.0: Media Hysteria Over Syria "Bombing" City of Aleppo

By News Desk

Ironically, NATO’s subsequent "protection of civilians" flattened several cities across the country , slaying thousands of civilians.  Syria’s Violence in Context The Syrian military cannot, however, rule out the use of airstrikes considering the overt manner in which foreign interests such as the US, Israel , and the Gulf States are increasingly sending heavily armed militants over their borders to destabilize their nation. It must be taken into consideration that FSA militants have been conducting indiscriminate bombings across Syria for months now, and with their latest assassinations and offensive, have shed the ability to play to role of "victim-civilians."  Image : The West’s "lightly armed" FSA.

Wider UNSC dissension, Turkish offensive against its own “rebels,” and Iraq’s rejection of latest “Arab League” statement before massive Al Qaeda attacks.  by Tony Cartalucci July 23, 2012 – Scratching just below the surface of the Western media’s headlines are stories carrying greater implications – stories the West believes are better left untold. “Operation Damascus Volcano” Followed Weeks of Warnings of Impending NATO Psy-Op.

US Prepares For Direct Intervention in Syria

Sunday, July 22, 2012 US Prepares For Direct Intervention in Syria As FSA proxies fail and psychological operations falter, US prepares more direct (and desperate) approach for long-sought regime change.  by Tony Cartalucci July 22, 2012 – As it becomes increasingly clear that last week’s "surge" by NATO-backed so-called "Free Syrian Army" terrorists was a failed psychological operation, coordinated with meticulously timed assassinations the day of the UN Security Council vote designed to stampede the Syrian government out of power, the FSA’s foreign sponsors are preparing the public for a more direct intervention while desperately attempting to maintain the illusion of chaos and the imminent collapse of Syria’s government.

Latest Syria "Massacre" – Goebbelsesque Propaganda

By News Desk

BBC even went as far as literally admitting , after offering up another "Houla-style" narrative, that (emphasis added): …later, activists told the AFP news agency that rebel fighters had attacked an army convoy, but were beaten back and many were killed in a counter-attack. "At this stage, though we do not yet have the final count, the number of civilians killed by shelling is not more than seven," said Jaafar, an activist from the anti-regime Sham News Network. "The rest were members of the Free Syrian Army." So despite even the "activists" themselves admitting they attacked the Syrian military first and simply lost the subsequent battle which appears to have led back to their base of operations in Tremseh, the Western media decided to spin it as a calculated, mass murder of civilians, as the Guardian puts it , "timed" for "boosting morale of Assad’s armed supporters and scuppering attempts to find a political solution,"  quoting a member of the overtly Western-backed "Syrian National Council" (SNC)

The Libyan Election Farce

By News Desk

All candidates are neo-imperial candidates – Wall Street proxy Jibril of "National Forces Alliance" presumed winner. by Tony Cartalucci July 9, 2012 – Ideally the West would like to install "liberal" pro-globalist candidates into power in each of the nations it has destabilized and destroyed during its premeditated, engineered "Arab Spring." In the case of Egypt where Mohammed ElBaradei was sufficiently exposed and his presidential aspirations effectively derailed, the West’s Muslim Brotherhood proxies made for a viable second option.  In Libya, a similar scenario has unfolded with two tiers of Western proxies poised to take power – pro-globalist technocrats like US-educated Mahmoud Jibril (Gibril) Elwarfally’s National Forces Alliance, and of course NATO’s terrorist proxies within the Muslim Brotherhood along with Al Qaeda-linked Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG) warlords like Abdul Hakim Belhaj . In Egypt where relative economic and social stability returned after the brief chaos and violence of the early 2011 protests, the alternative media was able to sufficiently expose and disrupt "liberal" candidate ElBaradei.
