October 17, 2016 “Information Clearing House<\/a>” – Why do we hear only of the humanitarian crisis in Aleppo\u201d and not of the humanitarian crisis everywhere else in Syria where the evil that rules in Washington has unleashed its ISIL mercenaries to slaughter the Syrian people?\u00a0 Why do we not hear about the humanitarian crisis in Yemen where the US and its Saudi Arabian vassal are slaughtering Yemeni women and children?\u00a0 Why don\u2019t we hear about the humanitarian crisis in Libya where Washington destroyed a country leaving chaos in its place?\u00a0 Why don\u2019t we hear about the humanitarian crisis in Iraq, ongoing now for 13 years, or the humanitarian crisis in Afghanistan now 15 years old?<\/p>\n

The answer is that the crisis in Aleppo is the crisis of Washington losing its ISIL mercenaries to the Syrian army and Russian air force.\u00a0 The jihadists sent by Obama and the killer bitch Hillary (We came, we saw, he died\u201d) to destroy Syria are being themselves destroyed.\u00a0 The Obama regime and the Western presstitutes are trying to save the jihadists by covering them in the blanket of humanitarian crisis.\u201d<\/p>\n

Such hypocrisy is standard fare for Washington.\u00a0 If the Obama regime gave a hoot about humanitarian crisis,\u201d the Obama regime would not have orchestrated humanitarian crisis in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, and Yemen.<\/p>\n

We are in the middle of a presidential campaign in the US and no one has asked why the US is determined to overthrow a democratically elected Syrian government that is supported by the Syrian people.<\/p>\n

No one has asked why the White House Fool is empowered to remove the president of Syria by siccing US-supplied jihadists, which the presstitutes misrepresent as moderate rebels,\u201d on the Syrian people.<\/p>\n

Washington, of course, has no acceptable answer to the question, and that is why the question is not asked.<\/p>\n

The answer to the question is that Washington\u2019s strategy for destabilizing Iran and then the Muslim provinces of the Russian Federation, former Soviet central Asia, and the Muslim province of China is to replace stable governments with the chaos of jihadism.\u00a0 Iraq, Libya, and Syria had stable secular societies in which the government\u2019s strong hand was used to prevent sectarian strife between Muslim sects. By overthrowing these secular governments and the current effort to overthrow Assad, Washington released the chaos of terrorism.<\/p>\n

There was no terrorism in the Middle East until Washington brought it there with invasions, bombings, and torture.<\/p>\n

Jihadists such as those that Washington used to overthrow Gaddafi appeared in Syria when the British Parliament and the Russian government blocked Obama\u2019s planned invasion of Syria. As Washington was prevented from directly attacking Syria, Washington used mercenaries.\u00a0 The prostitutes that pretend to be an American media obliged Washington with the propaganda that the jihadist terrorists are Syrian democrats rebelling against the Assad dictatorship.\u201d\u00a0 This transparant and blatant lie has been repeated so many times that it now is confused with truth.<\/p>\n

Syria has no connection whatsoever to Washington\u2019s original justification for introducing violence into the Middle East.\u00a0 The original justification was 9\/11 which was used to invade Afghanistan on the fabrication that the Taliban was shielding Osama bin Laden, the mastermind,\u201d who at the time was dying of renal failure in a Pakistani hospital.\u00a0 Osama bin Laden was a CIA asset who was used against the Soviets in Afghanistan.\u00a0 He was not the perpetrator of 9\/11.\u00a0 And most certainly, neither were the Taliban.<\/p>\n

But the Western presstitutes covered up for the Bush regime\u2019s lie, and the public was deceived with the phrase that we must defeat them abroad before they attack us at home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Of course, Muslims were not going to attack us at home. If Muslims are a threat, why does the US government keep bringing so many of them here as refugees from Washington\u2019s wars against Muslims?<\/p>\n

9\/11 was the neoconservatives new Pearl Harbor\u201d that they wrote they needed in order to launch their wars in the Middle East. George W. Bush\u2019s first Secretary of the Treasury said that the topic of Bush\u2019s first cabinet meeting was the invasion of Iraq.\u00a0 This was prior to 9\/11.\u00a0 In other words, Washington\u2019s wars in the Middle East were planned prior to 9\/11.<\/p>\n

The neoconservatives are zionists. By reducing the Middle East to chaos they achieve both of their goals.\u00a0 They remove organized opposition to Israeli expansion, and they create jihadism that can be used to destabilize countries such as Russia, Iran, and China that are in the way of their exercise of unilateral power, which, they believe, the Soviet collapse bequeathed to the indispensable nation,\u201d the USA.<\/p>\n

Osama bin Laden, the alleged 9\/11 mastermind, was dying, not directing a terror war against the US from a cave in Afghanistan. The Taliban were focused on establishing their rule in Afghanistan, not on attacking the West. After blowing up weddings, funerals, and childrens\u2019 soccer games, Washington moved on to Iraq.\u00a0 There was no sign of Iraqi beligerance toward the US. UN weapons inspectors said that there were no weapons of mass destruction in Iraq, but Washington did not hear.\u00a0 The whores who comprise the American media helped the Bush regime create the image of a nuclear mushroom cloud going up over America if the US did not invade Iraq.<\/p>\n

Iraq had no nuclear weapons and everyone knew it, but facts were irrelevant.\u00a0 There was an agenda at work, an undeclared agenda.\u00a0 To advance its agenda that the government did not dare reveal, the government used fear.\u00a0 We have to kill them over there before they kill us over here.\u201d<\/p>\n

So Iraq, a stable, progressive country was reduced to ruins.<\/p>\n

Libya was next. Gaddafi would not join Washington\u2019s Africa Command.\u00a0 Moreover, China was developing the oil fields in eastern Libya.\u00a0 Washington was already troubled by Russia\u2019s presence in the Mediterranean and did not want China there also.\u00a0 So Gaddafi had to go.<\/p>\n

Next Assad was set up with faked evidence that he had used chemical weapons against the rebellion that Washington had started.\u00a0 No one believed the transparant Washington lie, not even the British Parliament.\u00a0 Unable to find support to cover an invasion, Killary the Psychopath sent the jihadists Washington used to destroy Libya to overthrow Assad.<\/p>\n

The Russians, who until this point had been so naive and gullible as to trust Washington, finally figured out that the instability that Washington was brewing was directed at them.\u00a0 The Russian government decided that Syria was their red line and, at the request of the Syrian government, intervened against the Washington-supported jihadists.<\/p>\n

Washington is outraged and is now threatening to commit yet another criminal violation of the Nuremberg Standard with blatant aggression against Syria. Such an ill-advised step would bring Washington into military conflict with Russia and by implication with China.\u00a0 Before Europeans enable Washington to initiate such a dangerous conflict, they had best consider the warning from Sergey Karaganov, a member of the Russian Foreign Ministry\u2019s Foreign Policy and Defense council:\u00a0 Russia will never again fight on its own territory. If NATO initiates an encroachment against a nuclear power like ourselves, NATO will be punished.\u201d<\/p>\n

That the government of the United States is criminally insane should frighten every person on earth.\u00a0 Killary-Hillary is commited to conflict with Russia.\u00a0 Regardless,\u00a0 Obama, the presstitutes, and the Democratic and Republican establishments are doing everything in their power to put into the Oval Office the person who will maximize conflict with Russia.<\/p>\n

The life of the planet is in the hands of the criminally insane. This is the real humanitarian crisis.<\/p>\n

Note:\u00a0<\/strong> Lt. General Michael Flynn, director of the Pentagon\u2019s Defense Intelligence Agency stated in an interview that the creation of ISIS was a willful Washington decision.\u201d\u00a0 See, for example<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n

The DIA warned<\/a> that ISIS would result in a Salafist principality over parts of Iraq and Syria. The warning went unheeded as the neoconservative Obama regime saw ISIS as a strategic asset to be used against Syria.<\/em><\/p>\n
