The Watchman On The Wall

The Watchman On The Wall
Eph 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Verse 13 Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.

The Syrian Genie



The US State Department has exhausted its credibility and has attempted yet another "reset" by bringing in John Kerry as its next Secretary of State. It is hoped global opinion will see US foreign policy in a new, more tolerant light. Kerry, however, has wasted no time attempting to simply resell verbatim the same failed policy that Clinton peddled, covered up  and finalized in Benghazi, Libya.

The Washington Post's piece, "U.S. announces expanded battlefield aid to Syrian rebels, but not arms," rehashes the same tired, patently false narrative that has been used throughout the duration of the US-fueled Syrian conflict. The Washington Post reports: The Obama administration will provide food and medicine to Syrian rebel fighters, Secretary of State John F. Kerry said Thursday, announcing a cautious U.S. foray into front-line battlefield support that falls far short of the heavy weapons or high-tech gear the rebels seek.
Kerry talks to Mouaz al-Khatib


“The stakes are really high, and we can’t risk letting this country — in the heart of the Middle East — be destroyed by vicious autocrats or hijacked by the extremists,” Kerry said following discussions among a group of Western and Arab nations that are funding, and arming, the fighters.
The U.S. will, for the first time, send supplies through the rebels’ central military headquarters, with U.S. advisers supervising the distribution of food rations and medical supplies. The shift is intended to give the U.S.-backed Syrian Opposition Coalition greater say over the aid, but it is also a test of the rebels’ ability to keep donated supplies out of the hands of extremists in their midst. I think the extremists will get the supplies by hook or crook.
US assistance, cash, weapons, and covert military support had been ongoing in Syria since 2007, before the current conflict even began. The US has been providing this support specifically to Al Qaeda (AQ) itself and the so-called sectarian extremist Muslim Brotherhood (MB).

Outright admissions by administration officials, Saudi and Lebanese officials working in tandem with the US, and US intelligence agents have outlined a criminal conspiracy that has now transcended two presidencies and provided the clearest example yet of the New World Order (NWO) driven agenda that truly guides Western foreign policy. This criminal conspiracy has also incurred a staggering list of egregious crimes against humanity, including the 70,000 dead in the Syrian conflict so far.

Pulitizer Prize-winning journalist Seymour Hersh, in his 2007 New Yorker report titled, "
The Redirection: Is the Administration’s new policy benefiting our enemies in the war on terrorism? "stated explicitly that: "To undermine Iran, which is predominantly Shiite, the Bush Administration has decided, in effect, to reconfigure its priorities in the Middle East. In Lebanon, the Administration has coƶperated with Saudi Arabia’s government, which is Sunni, in clandestine operations that are intended to weaken Hezbollah, the Shiite organization that is backed by Iran. The U.S. has also taken part in clandestine operations aimed at Iran and its ally Syria. These activities have bolstered the Sunni extremist groups that espouse a militant vision of Islam and are hostile to America and sympathetic to AQ." 
Hersh's report would also include:  "the Saudi government, with Washington’s approval, would provide funds and logistical aid to weaken the government of President Bashir Assad, of Syria. The Israelis believe that putting such pressure on the Assad government will make it more conciliatory and open to negotiations. Hersh also reported that a supporter of the Lebanese pro-US-Saudi Hariri faction had met Dick Cheney in Washington and relayed personally the importance of using the MB in Syria in any move against the ruling government:  "[Walid] Jumblatt then told me that he had met with Vice-President Cheney in Washington last fall to discuss, among other issues, the possibility of undermining Assad. He and his colleagues advised Cheney that, if the U.S. does try to move against Syria, members of the Syrian MB would be “the ones to talk to.”
The article would continue by explaining how already in 2007 US and Saudi backing had begun benefiting the MB: "There is evidence that the Administration’s redirection strategy has already benefitted the MB. The Syrian National Salvation Front is a coalition of opposition groups whose principal members are a faction led by Abdul Halim Khaddam, a former Syrian Vice-President who defected in 2005. A former high-ranking CIA officer told me, “The Americans have provided both political and financial support. The Saudis are taking the lead with financial support, but there is American involvement.” He said that Khaddam, who now lives in Paris, was getting money from Saudi Arabia, with the knowledge of the White House. (In 2005, a delegation of the Front’s members met with officials from the National Security Council, according to press reports.) A former White House official told me that the Saudis had provided members of the Front with travel documents." 
At one point in Hersh's report, it was even admitted that officials from US ally Saudi Arabia admitted to "controlling" the "religious fundamentalists." The report states specifically: 
"...[Saudi Arabia's] Bandar and other Saudis have assured the White House that “they will keep a very close eye on the religious fundamentalists. Their message to us was ‘we’ve created this movement, and we can control it.’ It’s not that we don’t want the Salafis to throw bombs; it’s who they throw them at—Hezbollah, Moqtada al-Sadr, Iran, and at the Syrians, if they continue to work with Hezbollah and Iran.”
While Kerry, as did Clinton before him, and others throughout the Western establishment attempt to portray the rise of the MB, and its armed front, AQ, in Syria as an unforeseeable, unfortunate consequence of an equally unforeseeable, unfortunate conflict - it is clear that in 2007, such "consequences" were essential elements of a premeditated conflict the West had created, along with its partners in the Middle East, including Israel, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar.

Also in 2007, the Wall Street Journal would publish a report titled, "
To Check Syria, U.S. Explores Bond With Muslim Brothers." In this report, it was revealed that even in 2007, Syrian opposition groups were being created from whole-cloth by the US State Department and paraded around in front of Syria's embassies in the West. The article begins with one such protest, stating: On a humid afternoon in late May, about 100 supporters of Syria's largest exile opposition group, the National Salvation Front, gathered outside Damascus's embassy here to protest Syrian President Bashar Assad's rule. The participants shouted anti-Assad slogans and raised banners proclaiming: "Change the Regime Now."Later in the article, it would be revealed that the National Salvation Front (NSF) was in contact with the US State Department and that a Washington-based consulting firm in fact assisted the NSF in organizing the rally: In the weeks before the presidential election, the State Department's Middle East Partnership Initiative, which promotes regional democracy, and NSF members met to talk about publicizing Syria's lack of democracy and low voter turnout, participants say. A Washington-based consulting firm, C&O Resources Inc., assisted the NSF in its planning for the May 26 anti-Assad rally at the Syrian embassy, providing media and political contacts. State Department officials stress they provided no financial or technical support to the protestors.
And while the Wall Street Journal then, just as the US State Department and the Western media houses are now portraying the Syrian opposition as representing a wide range of interests across Syrian society, it was admitted then, just as it is plainly obvious now, that the sectarian extremist MB was in fact at the very center of the "uprising:" 

One of the NSF's most influential members is the Syrian branch of the MB, the decades-old political movement active across the Middle East whose leaders have inspired the terrorist groups Hamas and AQ. Its Syrian offshoot says it has renounced armed struggle in favor of democratic reform.
It was evidently clear, even in 2007, that extremists would play a leading role in any future armed conflict to overthrow the Syrian government, and now, years later, that engineered conflict has been executed verbatim and to horrific consequence - consequences the West not only refuses to take responsibility for, but seeks to further compound with increased aid to the forces of armed sedition it itself created.  

The only solution Kerry proposes is to flood Syria with more cash, equipment, training, weapons, and other aid, either directly, or laundered through proxies such as 
AQ’s chief financiers and arms providers, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. The Washington Post's report states: The goal of the new money is to counter the increasingly effective network of services provided by militants.
Unfortunately, the so-called "Syrian Opposition Coalition" handcrafted by the US, and founded in Doha, Qatar, is led by an extremist, Mouaz al-Khatib, who openly embraces AQ's al-Nusra front in Syria, credited with some of the most heinous atrocities committed during the 2 year conflict.

In late 2012, al-Khatib demanded that the US reverse its decision to list al-Nusra as a foreign terrorist organization. Reuters quoted al-Khatib as saying: 
"The decision to consider a party that is fighting the regime as a terrorist party needs to be reviewed. We might disagree with some parties and their ideas and their political and ideological vision. But we affirm that all the guns of the rebels are aimed at overthrowing the tyrannical criminal regime."
The more recent Washington Post article, in fact, reaffirms al-Khatib's support for extremists groups, stating: Coalition chairman Mouaz al-Khatib angrily appealed for a humanitarian corridor to the besieged city of Homs and said the rebels are tired of Western complaints about extremists in their ranks. He argued that the real enemy is the Assad regime but said too many outsiders are worried only about “the length of a beard of a fighter.”

“No terrorists in the world have such a savage nature as those in the regime,” Khatib said in Arabic.
The Syrian opposition leader’s finger-jabbing anger was in marked contrast to Kerry’s clipped and measured tone. Kerry looked at Khatib without expression as the Syrian spoke.
And yet this US-created "opposition" movement, run by a leader openly embracing and defending AQ, will be the recipient of some $60 million in "non-lethal aid" and "training" to allegedly "undermine" AQ. The Washington Post indicated that France and the UK were even considering sending armored vehicles to the openly pro-AQ front.  

Western foreign policy in the decade-long "War on Terror" that has left the U.S. and its allies bankrupt, killed thousands of soldiers and left tens of thousands more maimed or mentally ill. 

And astonishingly, even 
as French soldiers die fighting militants in Mali - armed, trained, and funded by NATO's similar intervention in Libya in 2011, and allegedly still funded and armed by US, UK, and French ally Qatar - theWashington Post article indicates France will be eagerly making the same "mistake" in Syria, and will be further assisting terrorists there, including the training of rebel forces "outside Syria." 

The UN is complicit in the premeditated, documented assault on Syria under the increasingly tenuous guise of "democracy promotion," "revolution," and "humanitarian concern." 

Nations existing outside the Club of Rome’s international enterprise would do best to continue resisting, and condemn the state-sponsorship of terrorism that is destroying Syria.

we must identify the New World Order interests driving this satanic agenda and erode the influence they have used to both plan and execute the vcicious assault on Syria's people.
