Preparing the Chessboard for the “Clash of Civilizations”: Divide, Conquer and Rule the “New Middle East”

by Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya

The name “Arab Spring” is a catch phrase concocted in distant offices in Washington, London, Paris, and Brussels by individuals and groups who, other than having some superficial knowledge of the region, know very little about the Arabs. What is unfolding amongst the Arab peoples is naturally a mixed package. Insurgency is part of this package as is opportunism. Where there is revolution, there is always counter-revolution.

The upheavals in the Arab World are not an Arab “awakening” either; such a term implies that the Arabs have always been sleeping while dictatorship and injustice has been surrounding them. In reality the Arab World, which is part of the broader Turko-Arabo-Iranic World, has been filled with frequent revolts that have been put down by the Arab dictators in coordination with countries like the United States, Britain, and France. It has been the interference of these powers that has always acted as a counter-balance to democracy and it will continue to do so.

Divide and Conquer: How the First “Arab Spring” was Manipulated

The plans for reconfiguring the Middle East started several years before the First World War. It was during the First World War, however, that the manifestation of these colonial designs could visibly be seen with the “Great Arab Revolt” against the Ottoman Empire.

Despite the fact that the British, French, and Italians were colonial powers which had prevented the Arabs from enjoying any freedom in countries like Algeria, Libya, Egypt, and Sudan, these colonial powers managed to portray themselves as the friends and allies of Arab liberation.

During the “Great Arab Revolt” the British and the French actually used the Arabs as foot soldiers against the Ottomans to further their own geo-political schemes. The secret Sykes–Picot Agreement between London and Paris is a case in point. France and Britain merely managed to use and manipulate the Arabs by selling them the idea of Arab liberation from the so-called “repression” of the Ottomans.

The Ottoman Empire at its greatest extent

In reality, the Ottoman Empire was a multi-ethnic empire. It gave local and cultural autonomy to all its peoples, but was manipulated into the direction of becoming a Turkish entity. Even the Armenian Genocide that would ensue in Ottoman Anatolia has to be analyzed in the same context as the contemporary targeting of Christians in Iraq as part of a sectarian scheme unleashed by external actors to divide the Ottoman Empire, Anatolia, and the citizens of the Ottoman Empire.

After the collapse of the Ottoman Empire, it was London and Paris which denied freedom to the Arabs, while sowing the seeds of discord amongst the Arab peoples. Local corrupt Arab leaders were also partners in the project and many of them were all too happy to become clients of Britain and France. In the same sense, the “Arab Spring” is being manipulated today. The U.S., Britain, France, and others are now working with the help of corrupt Arab leaders and figures to restructure the Arab World and Africa.

The Yinon Plan: Order from Chaos…

The Yinon Plan, which is a continuation of British stratagem in the Middle East, is an Israeli strategic plan to ensure Israeli regional superiority. It insists and stipulates that Israel must reconfigure its geo-political environment through the balkanization of the surrounding Arab states into smaller and weaker states.

Israeli strategists viewed Iraq as their biggest strategic challenge from an Arab state. This is why Iraq was outlined as the centerpiece to the balkanization of the Middle East and the Arab World. In Iraq, on the basis of the concepts of the Yinon Plan, Israeli strategists have called for the division of Iraq into a Kurdish state and two Arab states, one for Shiite Muslims and the other for Sunni Muslims. The first step towards establishing this was a war between Iraq and Iran, which the Yinon Plan discusses.

The above Yinon Plan map was prepared by Lieutenant-Colonel Ralph Peters. It was published in the Armed Forces Journal in June 2006, Peters is a retired colonel of the U.S. National War Academy.

The Atlantic, in 2008, and the U.S. military’s Armed Forces Journal, in 2006, both published widely circulated maps that closely followed the outline of the Yinon Plan. Aside from a divided Iraq, which the Biden Plan also calls for, the Yinon Plan calls for a divided Lebanon, Egypt, and Syria. The partitioning of Iran, Turkey, Somalia, and Pakistan also all fall into line with these views. The Yinon Plan also calls for dissolution in North Africa and forecasts it as starting from Egypt and then spilling over into Sudan, Libya, and the rest of the region.

Securing the Realm: Redefining the Arab World…

Richard Perle

Although tweaked, the Yinon Plan is in motion and coming to life under the “Clean Break.” This is through a policy document written in 1996 by Richard Perle and the Study Group on “A New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000” for Benjamin Netanyahu, the prime minister of Israel at the time. Perle was a former Pentagon under-secretary for Roland Reagan at the time and later a U.S. military advisor to George W. Bush Jr. and the White House. Aside from Perle, the rest of the members of the Study Group on “A New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000” consisted of James Colbert (Jewish Institute for National Security Affairs), Charles Fairbanks Jr. (Johns Hopkins University), Douglas Feith (Feith and Zell Associates), Robert Loewenberg (Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies), Jonathan Torop (The Washington Institute for Near East Policy), David Wurmser (Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies), and Meyrav Wurmser (Johns Hopkins University). A Clean Break: A New Strategy for Securing the Realm is the full name of this 1996 Israel policy paper.

In many regards, the U.S. is executing the objectives outlined in Tel Aviv’s 1996 policy paper to secure the “realm.” Moreover, the term “realm” implies the strategic mentality of the authors. A realm refers to either the territory ruled by a monarch or the territories that fall under a monarch’s reign, but are not physically under their control and have vassals running them. In this context, the word realm is being used to denote the Middle East as the kingdom of Tel Aviv. The fact that Perle, someone who has essentially been a career Pentagon official, helped author the Israeli paper also makes one ask if the conceptualized sovereign of the realm is either Israel, the United States, or both?

Securing the Realm: The Israeli Blueprints to Destabilize Damascus

The 1996 Israeli document calls for “rolling back Syria” sometime around the year 2000 or afterward by pushing the Syrians out of Lebanon and destabilizing the Syrian Arab Republic with the help of Jordan and Turkey. This has respectively taken place in 2005 and 2011.

The 1996 document states:

“Israel can shape its strategic environment, in cooperation with Turkey and Jordan, by weakening, containing, and even rolling back Syria. This effort can focus on removing Saddam Hussein from power in Iraq — an important Israeli strategic objective in its own right — as a means of foiling Syria’s regional ambitions.” [1]

As a first step towards creating an Israeli-dominated “New Middle East” and encircling Syria, the 1996 document calls for removing President Saddam Hussein from power in Baghdad and even alludes to the balkanization of Iraq and forging a strategic regional alliance against Damascus that includes a Sunni Muslim “Central Iraq.”

The authors write:

“But Syria enters this conflict with potential weaknesses: Damascus is too preoccupied with dealing with the threatened new regional equation to permit distractions of the Lebanese flank. And Damascus fears that the ‘natural axis’ with Israel on one side, central Iraq and Turkey on the other, and Jordan, in the center would squeeze and detach Syria from the Saudi Peninsula. For Syria, this could be the prelude to a redrawing of the map of the Middle East which would threaten Syria’s territorial integrity.” [2]

Perle and the Study Group on “A New Israeli Strategy Toward 2000” also call for driving the Syrians out of Lebanon and destabilizing Syria by using Lebanese opposition figures.

The document states:

“[Israel must divert] Syria’s attention by using Lebanese opposition elements to destabilize Syrian control of Lebanon.” [3]

This is what would happen in 2005 after the Hariri Assassination that helped launch the so-called “Cedar Revolution” and create the vehemently anti-Syrian March 14 Alliance controlled by the corrupt Said Hariri.

The document also calls for Tel Aviv to “take [the] opportunity to remind the world of the nature of the Syrian regime.” [4] This clearly falls into the Israeli strategy of demonizing its opponents through using public relations (PR) campaigns. In 2009, Israeli news media openly admitted that Tel Aviv through its embassies and diplomatic missions had launched a global campaign to discredit the Iranian presidential elections before they even took place through a media campaign and organizing protests in front of Iranian embassies. [5]

The document also mentions something that resembles what is currently going on in Syria.

It states:

“Most important, it is understandable that Israel has an interest supporting diplomatically, militarily and operationally Turkey’s and Jordan’s actions against Syria, such as securing tribal alliances with Arab tribes that cross into Syrian territory and are hostile to the Syrian ruling elite.” [6]

With the 2011 upheaval in Syria, the movement of insurgents and the smuggling of weapons through the Jordanian and Turkish borders has become a major problem for Damascus.

”]

In this context, it is no surprise that Arial Sharon and Israel told Washington to attack Syria, Libya, and Iran after the Anglo-American invasion of Iraq. [7] Finally, it is worth knowing that the Israeli document also advocated for pre-emptive war to shape Israel’s geo-strategic environment and to carve out the “New Middle East.” [8] This is a policy that the U.S. would also adopt in 2001.

The Eradication of the Christian Communities of the Middle East

It is no coincidence that Egyptian Christians were attacked at the same time as the South Sudan Referendum and before the crisis in Libya. Nor is it a coincidence that Iraqi Christians, one of the world’s oldest Christian communities, have been forced into exile, leaving their ancestral homelands in Iraq. Coinciding with the exodus of Iraqi Christians, which occurred under the watchful eyes of U.S. and British military forces, the neighbourhoods in Baghdad became sectarian as Shiite Muslims and Sunni Muslims were forced by violence and death squads to form sectarian enclaves. This is all tied to the Yinon Plan and the reconfiguration of the region as part of a broader objective.

In Iran, the Israelis have been trying in vain to get the Iranian Jewish community to leave. Iran’s Jewish population is actually the second largest in the Middle East and arguably the oldest undisturbed Jewish community in the world. Iranian Jews view themselves as Iranians who are tied to Iran as their homeland, just like Muslim and Christian Iranians, and for them the concept that they need to relocate to Israel because they are Jewish is ridiculous.

In Lebanon, Israel has been working to exacerbate sectarian tensions between the various Christian and Muslim factions as well as the Druze. Lebanon is a springboard into Syria and the division of Lebanon into several states is also seen as a means for balkanizing Syria into several smaller sectarian Arab states. The objectives of the Yinon Plan are to divide Lebanon and Syria into several states on the basis of religious and sectarian identities for Sunni Muslims, Shiite Muslims, Christians, and the Druze. There could also be objectives for a Christian exodus in Syria too.

The new head of the Maronite Catholic Syriac Church of Antioch, the largest of the autonomous Eastern Catholic Churches, has expressed his fears about a purging of Arab Christians in the Levant and Middle East. Patriarch Mar Beshara Boutros Al-Rahi and many other Christian leaders in Lebanon and Syria are afraid of a Muslim Brotherhood takeover in Syria. Like Iraq, mysterious groups are now attacking the Christian communities in Syria. The leaders of the Christian Eastern Orthodox Church, including the Eastern Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem, have also all publicly expressed their grave concerns. Aside from the Christian Arabs, these fears are also shared by the Assyrian and Armenian communities, which are mostly Christian.

The Maronite Patriarch and President Nicolas Sarkozy

Sheikh Al-Rahi was recently in Paris where he met President Nicolas Sarkozy. It is reported that the Maronite Patriarch and Sarkozy had disagreements about Syria, which prompted Sarkozy to say that the Syrian regime will collapse. Patriarch Al-Rahi’s position was that Syria should be left alone and allowed to reform. The Maronite Patriarch also told Sarkozy that Israel needed to be dealt with as a threat if France legitimately wanted Hezbollah to disarm.

Because of his position in France, Al-Rahi was instantly thanked by the Christian and Muslim religious leaders of the Syrian Arab Republic who visited him in Lebanon. Hezbollah and its political allies in Lebanon, which includes most the Christian parliamentarians in the Lebanese Parliament, also lauded the Maronite Patriarch who later went on a tour to South Lebanon.

Sheikh Al-Rahi is now being politically attacked by the Hariri-led March 14 Alliance, because of his stance on Hezbollah and his refusal to support the toppling of the Syrian regime. A conference of Christian figures is actually being planned by Hariri to oppose Patriarch Al-Rahi and the stance of the Maronite Church. Since Al-Rahi announced his position, the Tahrir Party, which is active in both Lebanon and Syria, has also started targeting him with criticism. It has also been reported that high-ranking U.S. officials have also cancelled their meetings with the Maronite Patriarch as a sign of their displeasure about his positions on Hezbollah and Syria.

The Hariri-led March 14 Alliance in Lebanon, which has always been a popular minority (even when it was a parliamentary majority), has been working hand-in-hand with the U.S., Israel, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and the groups using violence and terrorism in Syria. The Muslim Brotherhood and other so-called Salafist groups from Syria have been coordinating and holding secret talks with Hariri and the Christian political parties in the March 14 Alliance. This is why Hariri and his allies have turned on Cardinal Al-Rahi. It was also Hariri and the March 14 Alliance that brought Fatah Al-Islam into Lebanon and have now helped some of its members escape to go and fight in Syria.

There are unknown snippers who are targeting Syrian civilians and the Syrian Army with a view of causing chaos and internal fighting. The Christian communities in Syria are also being targeted by unknown groups. It is very likely that the attackers are a coalition of U.S., French, Jordanian, Israeli, Turkish, Saudi, and Khalij (Gulf) Arab forces working with some Syrians on the inside.

A Christian exodus is being planned for the Middle East by Washington, Tel Aviv, and Brussels. It has been reported that Sheikh Al-Rahi was told in Paris by President Nicolas Sarkozy that the Christian communities of the Levant and Middle East can resettle in the European Union. This is no gracious offer. It is a slap in the face by the same powers that have deliberately created the conditions to eradicate the ancient Christian communities of the Middle East. The aim appears to be either the resettling of the Christian communities outside of the region or demarcate them into enclaves. Both could be objectives.

This project is meant to delineate the Arab nations along the lines of being exclusively Muslim nations and falls into accordance with both the Yinon Plan and the geo-political objectives of the U.S. to control Eurasia. A major war may be its outcome. Arab Christians now have a lot in common with black-skinned Arabs.

Re-Dividing Africa: The Yinon Plan is very Much Alive and at Work…

In regards to Africa, Tel Aviv sees securing Africa as part of its broader periphery. This broader or so-called “new periphery” became a basis of geo-strategy for Tel Aviv after 1979 when the “old periphery” against the Arabs that included Iran, which was one of Israel’s closest allies during the Pahlavi period, buckled and collapsed with the 1979 Iranian Revolution. In this context, Israel’s “new periphery” was conceptualized with the inclusion of countries like Ethiopia, Uganda, and Kenya against the Arab states and the Islamic Republic of Iran. This is why Israel has been so deeply involved in the balkanization of Sudan.

In the same context as the sectarian divisions in the Middle East, the Israelis have outlined plans to reconfigure Africa. The Yinon Plan seeks to delineate Africa on the basis of three facets: (1) ethno-linguistics; (2) skin-colour; and, finally, (3) religion. To secure the realm, it also so happens that the the Institute for Advanced Strategic and Political Studies (IASPS), the Israeli think-tank that included Perle, also pushed for the creating of the Pentagon’s U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM).

An attempt to separate the merging point of an Arab and African identity is underway. It seeks to draw dividing lines in Africa between a so-called “Black Africa” and a supposedly “non-Black” North Africa. This is part of a scheme to create a schism in Africa between what are assumed to be “Arabs” and so-called “Blacks.”

This objective is why the ridiculous identity of an “African South Sudan” and an “Arab North Sudan” have been nurtured and promoted. This is also why black-skinned Libyans have been targeted in a campaign to “colour cleanse” Libya. The Arab identity in North Africa is being de-linked from its African identity. Simultaneously there is an attempt to eradicate the large populations of “black-skinned Arabs” so that there is a clear delineation between “Black Africa” and a new “non-Black” North Africa, which will be turned into a fighting ground between the remaining “non-Black” Berbers and Arabs.

In the same context, tensions are being fomented between Muslims and Christians in Africa, in such places as Sudan and Nigeria, to further create lines and fracture points. The fuelling of these divisions on the basis of skin-colour, religion, ethnicity, and language is intended to fuel disassociation and disunity in Africa. This is all part of a broader African strategy of cutting North Africa off from the rest of the African continent.

Preparing the Chessboard for the “Clash of Civilizations”

 

It is at this point that all the pieces have to be put together and the dots have to be connected.

The chessboard is being staged for a “Clash of Civilizations” and all the chess pieces are being put into place.  The Arab World is in the process of being cordoned off and sharp delineation lines are being created. These lines of delineation are replacing the seamless lines of transition between different ethno-linguistic, skin-colour, and religious groups.

Under this scheme, there can no longer be a melding transition between societies and countries. This is why the Christians in the Middle East and North Africa, such as the Copts, are being targeted. This is also why black-skinned Arabs and black-skinned Berbers, as well as other North African population groups which are black-skinned, are facing genocide in North Africa.

After Iraq and Egypt, the Libyan Arab Jamahiriya and the Syrian Arab Republic are both important points of regional destabilization in North Africa and Southeast Asia respectively. What happens in Libya will have rippling effects on Africa, as what happens in Syria will have rippling effects on Southeast Asia and beyond. Both Iraq and Egypt, in connection with what the Yinon Plan states, have acted as primers for the destabilization of both these Arab states.

What is being staged is the creation of an exclusively “Muslim Middle East” area (excluding Israel) that will be in turmoil over Shiite-Sunni fighting. A similar scenario is being staged for a “non-Black North Africa” area which will be characterized by a confrontation between Arabs and Berber. At the same time, under the “Clash of Civilizations” model, the Middle East and North Africa are slated to simultaneously be in conflict with the so-called “West” and “Black Africa.”

This is why both Nicolas Sarzoky, in France, and David Cameron, in Britain, made back-to-back declarations during the start of the conflict in Libya that multiculturalism is dead in their respective Western European societies. [9] Real multiculturalism threatens the legitimacy of the NATO war agenda. It also constitutes an obstacle to the implementation of the “Clash of Civilizations” which constitutes the cornerstone of U.S. foreign policy.

In this regard, Zbigniew Brzezinski, former U.S. National Security Advisor, explains why multiculturalism is a threat to Washington and its allies: “[A]s America becomes an increasingly multicultural society, it may find it more difficult to fashion a consensus on foreign policy issues [e.g., war with the Arab World, China, Iran, or Russia and the former Soviet Union], except in the circumstances of a truly massive and widely perceived direct external threat. Such a consensus generally existed throughout World War II and even during the Cold War [and exists now because of the ‘Global War on Terror’].” [10] Brzezinski’s next sentence is the qualifier of why populations would oppose or support wars: “[The consensus] was rooted, however, not only in deeply shared democratic values, which the public sensed were being threatened, but also in a cultural and ethnic affinity for the predominantly European victims of hostile totalitarianisms.” [11]

Risking being redundant, it has to be mentioned again that it is precisely with the intention of breaking these cultural affinities between the Middle East-North Africa (MENA) region and the so-called “Western World” and sub-Saharan Africa that Christians and black-skinned peoples are being targeted.

Ethnocentrism and Ideology: Justifying Today’s “Just Wars”

In the past, the colonial powers of Western Europe would indoctrinate their people. Their objective was to acquire popular support for colonial conquest. This took the form of spreading Christianity and promoting Christian values with the support of armed merchants and colonial armies.

At the same time, racist ideologies were put forth. The people whose lands were colonized were portrayed as “sub-human,” inferior, or soulless. Finally, the “White Man’s burden” of taking on a mission of civilizing the so-called “uncivilized peoples of the world” was used. This cohesive ideological framework was used to portray colonialism as a “just cause.” The latter in turn was used to provide legitimacy to the waging of “just wars” as a means to conquering and “civilizing” foreign lands.

Today, the imperialist designs of the United States, Britain, France, and Germany have not changed. What has changed is the pretext and justification for waging their neo-colonial wars of conquest. During the colonial period, the narratives and justifications for waging war were accepted by public opinion in the colonizing countries, such as Britain and France. Today’s “just wars” and “just causes” are now being conducted under the banners of women’s rights, human rights, humanitarianism, and democracy.

Shoaib was managing director of the planned Inquilab Television until he was sacked last year……. এরপর চৌধুরী সাহেব একাধারে ১৭ মাস জেল খাটেন। চৌধুরী সাহেব কিছুদিন ইনকিলাব পত্রিকার সাংবাদিক হিসেবেও কাজ করেছেন। তিনি ইনকিলাব টিভি প্রতিষ্ঠা করার জন্যও কাজ করেছেন। তিনি ইনকিলাব টিভির এম.ডি হিসেবে নিযুক্ত হন। ইনকিলাব টিভিতে তার প্রায় এক মিলিয়ন টাকার মোট ৩০% শেয়ার ছিল বলে দাবী করেন। ইনকিলাব পত্রিকা যখন জাতীয়তাবাদী ও ইসলামী শক্তির পক্ষে কাজ করছিল, ঠিক সেই মুহূর্তেও ইনকিলাব টিভির সর্বোচ্চ পদে ঘাপটি মেরে ছিল দেশ ও জাতির শত্রু এবং ইসরাইলের এ চর! এ ঘটনা থেকে কি বি.এন.পি. ও ইসলামী সংগঠন বা প্রতিষ্ঠানগুলো কোনো শিক্ষা নেবে? ১৯৬৫ সনে সিলেটে জন্ম নেয়া এ নরাধম, পাপিষ্ট, দেশদ্রোহী ও তার সাঙ্গপাঙ্গরা এখনও নির্বিঘ্নে তাদের কলুষিত কার্যক্রম চালিয়ে যাচ্ছে। এবার তারা তৈরী করতে যাচ্ছে ব্ল্যাক (Black) নামে একটি সিরিজ সিনেমা। যা তার ভাষ্যমতে, এ বছরের এপ্রিল মাসে (১৪১৮ বাংলা নববর্ষে) পশ্চিমবঙ্গে মুক্তি পেয়েছে। যার মূল লক্ষ্য হচ্ছে ইসলামকে বিশ্ববাসীর কাছে বিকৃতভাবে তুলে ধরা। বাংলা ভাষায় সিনেমাটি নির্মাণ করা হলেও ইংরেজী, হিন্দি, উর্দূ ও ফ্রেন্স ভাষায় এর সাব টাইটেল লিখে আন্তর্জাতিক বাজারে ছাড়া হয়েছে। ছবিতে নায়িকা হিসেবে কাজ করেছেন মডেল কন্যা শতাব্দি। ব্ল্যাক ছবিতে নায়িকা হিসেবে কাজ করেছেন মডেল কন্যা শতাব্দি ছবিটি নিয়ে নায়িকা শতাব্দি বলেন: “ছবির স্ক্রিপ্টে খুবই ভালো লেগেছে আমাকে। শোয়েব চৌধুরী ও তার দলের মত আন্তর্জাতিক মানের টিমের সাথে কাজ করতে পারা আমার জন্য অত্যন্ত সম্মানের”। ছবিতে গান গেয়েছেন সংগীত শিল্পী রুনা লায়লা, আগুন, এস.আই টুটুল, অনিমা ডি কস্তা ও ফকির শাহাবুদ্দিন। কী আছে এই সিনেমায়? শান্তিগ্রাম বাংলাদেশের প্রত্যন্ত অঞ্চলের একটি গ্রাম। পয়ত্রিশ বছর আগে এখানে বিভিন্ন ধর্ম-বর্ণের লোকজন বেশ শান্তিতে বসবাস করত। কিন্তু কয়েক দশক থেকে পুরো গ্রামে ইসলাম পন্থীদের ইসলামী কর্মকান্ড ব্যাপকভাবে বৃদ্ধি পাচ্ছে। মসজিদ মাদরাসার হুজুরদের প্রভাব দিন দিন ব্যাপকভাবে বৃদ্ধি পাচ্ছে। এরা নিজেরাই শরীয়া আইন চালু করে জনগণের জীবন যাত্রা বিভীষিকাময় করে তুলেছে। মোল্লারা গ্রামের পুরুষদের একাধিক বিবাহে উৎসাহ দিচ্ছে। এভাবে একাধিক স্ত্রী যাদের আছে তারা সেইসব স্ত্রীদের সাথে দাসীর মতো আচরণ করছে এবং সেই একাধিক স্ত্রীদের কৃষিকাজসহ নানা কাজে লাগাচ্ছে। কিন্তু যখন কোন মহিলা অসুস্থ হচ্ছে, তখন তাকে হাসপাতাল বা ডাক্তারের কাছে যেতে দেওয়া হচ্ছে না এই অজুহাতে যে হাসপাতালগুলো শয়তানের আড্ডাখানা যেখানে নারী-পুরুষ পর্দা ছাড়াই অবাধে মেলামেশা করে। গ্রামে মোল্লা ও মাতব্বরদের সমন্বয়ে শরীয়া কমিটি করে দোররা মারাসহ বিভিন্ন শারীরিক শাস্তির ব্যবস্থা করা হচ্ছে নিয়মিত। এই গ্রামেই বাস করে কিছু বাউল সম্প্রদায়ের লোক। এরা মূলত: হিন্দু ও সূফী মুসলিম গোত্রের মানুষ। বাউলরা ধর্মের সম্প্রীতির বাণী শুনাতো। গ্রামের উগ্র ইসলামপন্থীদের প্রভাবে তাদের জীবনেও নেমে আসে বিভীষিকা। মোল্লারা তাদের আল্টিমেটাম দেয়, হয় মুসলিম হও না হয় এই এলাকা ত্যাগ কর। এদিকে গ্রামে ইসলামী এনজিওদের প্রভাব দিন দিন বৃদ্ধি পায়। তারা হিন্দু, খৃষ্টান, বৌদ্ধসহ অন্যান্য অমুসলিমদের ইসলাম গ্রহণের জন্য আর্থিক প্রলোভন দেয়, ঋণ দেয়। তাতে কাজ না হলে ইসলাম গ্রহণ করতে চাপ দেয়। এতেও কাজ না হলে ঐসব অমুসলিম পরিবারের যুবক-যুবতীদের অপহরণ করে জোরপূর্বক ইসলাম গ্রহণে বাধ্য করে। এভাবে একদিন দেখা যায় যে, গ্রামটি অমুসলিমশূন্য হয়ে গেল। ব্ল্যাক সিনেমায় দেখানো হচ্ছে কিভাবে জোরপূর্বক চাপিয়ে দেয়া শরীয়া আইন মানুষের জীবনকে দুর্বিষহ করে তুলছে সাথে সাথে সংখ্যালঘু অমুসলিম সম্প্রদায়কে নির্মূল করছে। শোয়েব চৌধুরীর এই সিরিজ সিনেমাটি যে দেশ ও ইসলাম বিরোধী ভয়ানক প্রোপাগান্ডার অংশ, এতে কোন সন্দেহ নেই। বিশ্বের দরবারে বাংলাদেশ ও মুসলিম জনগোষ্ঠিকে হেয় করার জন্য এই জঘন্য ঘৃণ্য প্রচেষ্টা। ইসলাম সম্পর্কে যার বিন্দুমাত্র একাডেমিক জ্ঞান নেই তার দ্বারা ইসলামের গুরুত্বপূর্ণ বিধান নিয়ে সিনেমা নির্মাণ করা কূপমণ্ডুকতার শামিল। তিনি ডাহা মিথ্যা কথা দিয়ে এ সিনেমাটি নির্মাণ করেছেন। যে সমস্ত তথ্য এ সিনেমাটিতে দেয়া হয়েছে তার সাথে বাস্তবতার কোন মিল নেই। গত ১২ জানুয়ারী ওয়াশিংটন বাংলা রেডিওতে শোয়েব চৌধুরী তার নির্মিতব্য ব্ল্যাক সিনেমা নিয়ে যে খোলামেলা সাক্ষাৎকার দেন তাও মিথ্যা দিয়ে ভরা। তিনি বলেন, “A secular government came to power in the year 2008 but things really didn’t change much at Bangladesh. Every year almost sixteen thousand Hindu Women in Bangladesh are kidnapped and converted to Islam forcefully. The numbers have not changed in the year 2011 also”. অর্থাৎ- “২০০৮ সনে বাংলাদেশে সেক্যুলার সরকার ক্ষমতায় এলেও বাংলাদেশের অধিকাংশ অবস্থার বাস্তবিক কোন পরিবর্তন আসেনি। বাংলাদেশে প্রত্যেক বছর প্রায় ১৬ হাজার হিন্দু মহিলা অপহৃত হয় এবং তারা বাধ্য হয়ে ইসলাম ধর্ম গ্রহণ করে। ২০১১ তে এসেও এই সংখ্যা কমেনি মোটেও”। এর চেয়ে জঘন্য মিথ্যাচার আর কি হতে পারে! সেক্যুলার সরকার ক্ষমতায় আসার পরে পরিবর্তনের নামে ইসলাম ধ্বংসের মহোৎসবকে আড়াল করা কিংবা এর মাত্রা আরও বৃদ্ধির জন্যই কি তার এ আয়োজন? শোয়েব চৌধুরী কি নির্দিষ্ট করে ঐ প্রত্যেক বছর অপহৃত হওয়া এবং বাধ্য হয়ে মুসলিম হয়ে যাওয়া হিন্দু মহিলার নাম বলতে পারবেন? তারা কোন গ্রামের এবং কোন বাপের সন্তান তার তথ্য কি চৌধুরীর কাছে আছে? বিশ্ব বিখ্যাত পপশিল্পী ক্যাট স্টিভেন (ইউসুফ ইসলাম), টনি ব্লেয়ারের শ্যালিকা লরা বুথসহ উন্নত বিশ্বের লাখো লাখো অমুসলিমকে কোন বাংলাদেশী মুসলিমরা ইসলাম গ্রহণে বাধ্য করছে? তিনি এরকম আজগুবি আরো অনেক কথা বলেছেন। তিনি বলেন: The oppression of the religious minorities at Bangladesh continues unabated. There were many incidents of attacks on the Hindu mandirs during the Durga puja, this year. None were reported and the governments at Bangladesh is least bothered to take up the causes for minorities. তিনি সাক্ষাৎকারে আশা প্রকাশ করে বলেন: The purpose of making the film is not at all commercial but to make people aware of what happens with the woman; once she is abducted and converted. The girl’s family is not aware of what the girl goes through after kidnapping. The film tries to answer this and in the process make people aware of the evil of this practice and the suffering of humanity. শয়তানের ভালো কথার মধ্যে যেরকম শয়তানীতে ভরপুর থাকে; কল্যাণের কিছু থাকে না, তেমনি শোয়েব চৌধুরীও তার দোসরদের নিয়ে বাংলাদেশ ও এদেশের সংখ্যাগরিষ্ঠ জনগণের ধর্ম নিয়ে বিশ্ববাসীকে বিভ্রান্ত করার চেষ্টা করছে। ধর্মদ্রোহী এই কুলাঙ্গারের চোখের সামনে শত শত মানবতা বিরোধী কর্মকান্ড হলেও তা তার চোখকে স্পর্শ করে না। ভারতে মুসলিম জনগোষ্ঠী যে অবর্ণনীয় দু:খ-কষ্টের মধ্যে দিনাতিপাত করছে তা নিয়ে তিনি কি কোনদিন ভেবেছেন? সভ্যতার এই চরম উৎকর্ষের যুগে গুজরাটে কয়েক হাজার মুসলিমকে পুড়িয়ে মারলেও চৌধুরীদের রক্ত পিপাসা মেটে না, উসকানিমূলক বক্তব্য দিয়ে বাংলাদেশকে আরেক গুজরাট বানাতে চান। বাবরী মসজিদ ভেঙ্গে গুড়িয়ে দেয়াকে অসাম্প্রদায়িক(?) চৌধুরী সাহেব কী বলবেন? কাশ্মীর, আফগানিস্তান, ফিলিস্তিন, ইরাকে প্রতিদিন শতশত নর-নারী যে নির্মমতার শিকার হয় তা কি এই বিকৃত মস্তিস্কওয়ালা বিপথগামী সাংবাদিককে কখনো ব্যাথিত করে? জারজ রাষ্ট্র ইসরাইল যখন ফিলিস্তিনী নাগরিকদেরকে নির্বিচারে হত্যা করে, নারীদের ধর্ষণ করে, শান্তির জনপদকে অশান্ত করে, অবরোধ করে ও মানুষের বেঁচে থাকার অধিকার নষ্ট করে তখন তা নিয়ে চৌধুরী সাহেব সিনেমা তৈরী করেন না কেন? বসনিয়া, কসোভোর কসাইদের নিয়ে তার কেন মাথা ব্যথা নেই? ইসলামবিরোধীচক্র বিশেষত ইসরাইলের পালকপুত্রের কাছে ওগুলো কোন অন্যায় নয়। ওগুলোর বিরুদ্ধে বললেতো আর প্রভূদের থেকে ভিক্ষা পাওয়া যাবে না! বাংলাদেশের পার্বত্য অঞ্চলে কারা উপজাতীয়দের খ্রীষ্টান বানায় তা সবাই জানে। শুধু তাই নয় অনেক এনজিওর বিরুদ্ধে সারা বাংলাদেশে মুসলমান বালক-বালিকাদেরকে ধর্মান্তরিত করার অভিযোগ আছে। স্কুলে বালক-বালিকাদের চোখ বন্ধ করে চকলেট দিয়ে আবার চোখ খোলার পরে জিজ্ঞেস করা হয় কে এই চকলেট দিল? সবাই যখন উত্তর দেয় ম্যাডাম দিয়েছে; তখন তাদেরকে চোখ বুজে আল্লাহর কাছে চকলেট চাইতে বলা হয় এবং চকলেট না পাওয়া গেলে বলা হয় আল্লাহ বলতে কিছু নেই। কিন্তু এসব দৃশ্যকে এড়িয়ে গিয়ে ইসলামী এনজিওর বিরুদ্ধে সর্বৈব মিথ্যা অভিযোগ দিয়ে যে সিনেমা বানানো হলো তা এ দেশের সাম্প্রদায়িক সম্প্রীতিকে বিনষ্ট করবে। বিশ্বের কাছে বাংলাদেশ সম্পর্কে ভুল ম্যাসেজ যাবে। ভারত, যুক্তরাষ্ট্র ও ইসরাইলসহ অন্যরাষ্ট্রগুলো আমাদের উপর ক্ষিপ্ত হবে। চৌধুরী সাহেব জিহাদের কি বোঝেন? জিহাদ মানে যুদ্ধ ও হত্যা নয়। জিহাদ অর্থ হচ্ছে- জন্ম থেকে মৃত্যু পর্যন্ত মুসলিমকে ইসলামের উপর টিকে থাকার চেষ্টা করা। নফস, শয়তান ও তাগুতের বিপক্ষে সত্যের পক্ষে অটল থাকার প্রাণান্তকর প্রচেষ্টার নাম জিহাদ। জিহাদ হচ্ছে- ব্যক্তি, পরিবার ও রাষ্ট্রিয় পর্যায়ে ইসলামকে প্রতিষ্ঠিত করার জন্য জান মাল ও সবকিছু দিয়ে একান্ত চেষ্টা করা। হিজাব নারীর অলংকার। এটি নারীকে শোয়েব চৌধুরীর মত শয়তানদের কু-দৃষ্টি থেকে রক্ষা করে। হিজাব কখনো নারীর কোন অধিকারকে ক্ষুন্ন করে না। তবে হ্যাঁ হিজাব চৌধুরী সাহেবদের মতো ভোগবাদীদের লাম্পট্যকে বাধাগ্রস্থ করে। ইসলাম পুরুষের চরিত্রকে পবিত্র রাখার জন্য বিবাহের ব্যবস্থা করেছে। প্রয়োজন হলে শর্ত সাপেক্ষে একসাথে চারটি বিয়ের অনুমতিও দেয়া হয়েছে। তবে ইসলামের শর্ত মেনে একসাথে চারজন স্ত্রী ঘরে রাখা মোটামুটি অসম্ভব। শোয়েব চৌধুরী মূলত: বহু বিবাহের নামে ইসলামের বিবাহ নামক পবিত্র প্রথাকে বিলোপ করার চেষ্টা করছেন। ঘরে বৈধ বৌ থাকলে যে অবাধে নাইট ক্লাবে গমন, বহু নারীর সংস্পর্শ পাওয়া খুব কঠিন তা তিনি ভালো করে জানেন বিধায় বিবাহ উচ্ছেদের এই পরিকল্পনা। তার আরেক দোস্ত তসলিমা নাসরিন তার এক বইতে চৌধুরীর মতো বাবার বয়সী প্রগতিশীল পুরুষদের মহৎ(?) চরিত্রের বয়ান লিখে হৈ চৈ ফেলে দিয়েছিলেন। বাংলা সাহিত্যের আরেক দিকপাল তার মেয়ের বান্ধবীর সৌন্দর্য দেখে মুগ্ধ হয়ে সকল লাজ লজ্জা ফেলে বিয়েই করে ফেললেন। আরেক বিখ্যাত বৃদ্ধ কবির (এখন মরহুম) কাছে নাকি বিশ্ববিদ্যালয়ের ছাত্রীরা রাত যাপন করার আবদার করতেন এবং তা তিনি ফেলতে পারতেন না তার মহত্বের গুণে। শোয়েব চৌধুরী কি বলতে পারবেন বাংলাদেশের কোন কোন মোল্লা একাধিক স্ত্রী রেখে তাদেরকে দিয়ে কৃষি কাজ করান? কোন মোল্লার বউ চিকিৎসার অভাবে ঘরে বসে মারা গেছেন? অবশ্য অভাবগ্রস্থ সাধারণ বাংলাদেশীদের অনেকেই চিকিৎসার অভাবে মারা যেতে পারেন, সেটি কোন বিশেষ গেষ্ঠির জন্য নির্দিষ্ট নয়। তিনি যে কাল্পনিক শান্তিগ্রামের কথা বলেছেন সে রকম কি কোন বাস্তবিক গ্রামের অস্তিত্ব এদেশে আছে? বাংলাদেশে আবহমান কাল ধরে হিন্দু, খ্রীষ্টান, উপজাতি ও অন্যান্য সম্প্রদায়ের সাথে মুসলমানদের যে সদ্ভাব বিদ্যমান আছে তার নজির বিশ্বের কোথাও নেই। এদেশে উপজাতির জন্য সরকারীভাবে কোটা পদ্ধতি চালু আছে। হিন্দুরা এদেশে মন্ত্রিত্ব করছে, এম.পি হচ্ছে। পুলিশ অফিসার, ডিসি, এসপিসহ বিভিন্ন অফিস আদালতে হিন্দুদের উপস্থিতি কম নয়। বরং কখনো কখনো তাদের ভাব দেখলে মনে হয় না তারা এদেশে সংখ্যালঘু। তারপরও শোয়েব চৌধুরীর হিন্দুদের নিয়ে যে এত উদ্বেগ তার পিছনে রহস্য কি? তিনি শুধু সংখ্যালঘু নির্যাতনের কথা বলে সংখ্যাগুরু নির্যাতনের বিষয়টিও এড়িয়ে যাওয়ার চেষ্টা করছেন। মিশর, তিওনিসিয়াসহ পৃথিবীর বিভিন্ন দেশে যুগের পর যুগ সংখ্যাগরিষ্ঠ মুসলিম জনগোষ্ঠি সেক্যুলার শক্তির দ্বারা নির্যাতিত হলেও ওদিকে তাকানোর সুযোগ চৌধুরীর নেই। সংখ্যাগরিষ্ঠ মুসলিম দেশ হলেও বাংলাদেশেও আজ কী ঘটছে? গুটিকয়েক নাস্তিক ও ইসলাম বিদ্বেষীদের ক্ষমতার দাপটে ইসলামী চেতনা, ইসলামী শিক্ষা, ইসলামী রাজনীতি ও ইসলামী সংগঠন আজ ধ্বংসের দ্বারপ্রান্তে। সংখ্যাগরিষ্ঠ জনগণের বিশ্বাস ও চেতনার প্রতীক মাহমুদুর রহমানরা আজ বন্দীশালায় ধুকেধুকে মরছে, আর তাদের বিরুদ্ধে ষড়যন্ত্রকারী সাংবাদিক তৌহিদী জনতার চোখে ধুলা দিয়ে বাংলাদেশে বসেই ইসলামের বিরুদ্ধে ছবি নির্মাণ করে তামাশা দেখছে! এরা মূলত সংখ্যালঘুর দোহাই তুলে সংখ্যাগরিষ্ঠকে নির্মূলের আয়োজন করছে। পরিসংখ্যান বলছে, যে এলাকায় মাদরাসা বেশী সেই এলাকায় শান্তি ও নিরাপত্তা বেশী। সে এলাকায় তুলনামূলকভাবে অপরাধ সংঘটিত কম হয়। সারাদেশে এত ইভটিজিং, নারী-ধর্ষণ, এসিড সন্ত্রাস ও নারী নির্যাতন কারা করছে? ঐসব ঘটনায় কয়জন মাদরাসার ছাত্র জড়িত? রেকর্ড বলছে মাদরাসার ছাত্ররা এসব কাজে জড়িত নেই বললেই চলে। তারপরও মাদরাসার বিরুদ্ধে এত বিষোদগার কেন? কারণও সবার জানা। হান্টিংটনের গবেষণায় আগামী শতাব্দীতে পাশ্চাত্যের সামনে বড় চ্যালেঞ্জ হচ্ছে ইসলাম ও মুসলমান। অতএব বিভিন্ন ছলনায় এদেরকে নির্মূল করা চাই। বিশ্বব্যাপী মুসলিম নিধন করতে তথাকথিত মুসলিম সহযোদ্ধাদের বিকল্প নেই। শোয়েব চৌধুরীরাতো ঐ দলেরই গর্বিত সদস্য। যাইহোক ব্ল্যাক ছবিতে শোয়েব চৌধুরী যে বিষয়গুলোর অবতারণা করেছেন তার সাথে বিচ্ছিন্ন দু একটি ঘটনা ছাড়া বাস্তবতার কোন মিল নেই। শুধুমাত্র বিকৃত মস্তিস্ক সম্পন্ন বিবেকহীন নির্বোধ দিয়েই এরকম বাস্তবতা বিবর্জিত দেশ ও ইসলাম বিরোধী ছবি নির্মাণ করা সম্ভব। গত ১লা বৈশাখ তিনি ছবিটি মুক্তি দিয়েছেন। বাংলাদেশের ইসলামপ্রিয় জনতাকে তার এই হীন প্রচেষ্টাকে রুখে দিতে হবে। দেশ ও ইসলাম বিরোধী সকল অপতৎপরতাকে ঐক্যবদ্ধভাবে প্রতিহত করতে হবে। বাংলাদেশ সরকারের কাছে অনুরোধ তারা যেন এ বিষয়টিকে গুরুত্ব দিয়ে ব্ল্যাক সিনেমাকে নিষিদ্ধ করে দেশ ও ইসলামের ভাবমূর্তি রক্ষায় এগিয়ে আসেন। লেখক: সহকারী অধ্যাপক, আন্তর্জাতিক ইসলামী বিশ্ববিদ্যালয় চট্টগ্রাম।

Israel Reported ‘Behind Blast’ That Killed Iran’s Missile Chief

Time magazine quotes ‘western intel source’ as saying Mossad carried out blast at missile base near Tehran

Time’s correspondent in Jerusalem, Karl Vick, is reporting that Israel was responsible for the huge blast on Saturday at a Revolutionary Guard missile base, about 35 km west of Tehran. Vick quotes a western intelligence source as saying that Mossad carried out the sabotage attack, adding that more such attacks are to be expected –

“There are more bullets in the magazine.”

Blast: Brigadier General Hassan Moghaddam was fatally injured in the blast, which killed 17 people in total, at a Revolutionary Guard compound 25 miles east of the capital Tehran

If true, it would be the most damaging blow to date in the covert war against Iran‘s nuclear weapons programme. It killed 17 Iranian revolutionary guardsmen, including the head of the missile programme, General Hasan Moghaddam, decribed in the Iranian press as “a pioneer” of Iran’s missile project [Farsi]. His official job description was head of the ‘self-sufficiency department” for munitions. The Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, was at the funeral today.

Last week’s IAEA report [pdf] included a range of evidence that Iranian technicians had explored ways of making a warhead small enough to put on top of a Shahab-3 missile, which has a 2000 km range variant, the Shahab-4.

Dead: Brigadier General Hassan Moghaddam was fatally injured in the blast

Iranians carry a picture and coffin of General Hassan Moghaddam, a Revolutionary guards commander, who was killed during a blast in a military base, in Tehran, Iran, Monday.

 

The base that was bombed was reported to be a storage site for Shahab-3 missiles, and the official media reported that the explosion took place when munitions were being moved. There was no explanation why General Moghaddam was present at the time.

Press TV quotes the head of the revolutionary guard public relations department, Lt General Ramezan Sharif, as ruling out sabotage, but then adding that an investigation into the cause of the blast is still underway.

Israeli Intelligence Sources: NATO Killed Qaddafi

German Intelligence played a behind the scenes role on behalf of NATO

 

by Julie Lévesque

An article released by the Israeli intelligence news service DEBKAfile reveals NATO allies are competing “over who will take credit for his termination and therefore for ending the alliance’s military role in Libya”. (DEBKAfile, US and NATO allies vie over “kudos” for Qaddafi’s termination, October 24, 2011.)

According to DEBKA,

“American sources are willing to admit that US drones operated by pilots from Las Vegas pinpointed the fugitive ruler’s hideout in Sirte and kept the building under surveillance for two weeks, surrounded by US and British forces.

Both therefore had boots on the ground in breach of the UN mandate which limited NATO military intervention in Libya to air strikes.” (DEBKAfile, op.,cit.)

This contradicts NATO’s claims: “No NATO ground troops have participated in the operation – NATO’s success to date has been achieved solely with air and sea assets.” (NATO, NATO and Libya – Operation Unified Protector.)

DEBKA adds:

According to the London Daily Telegraph, his [Qaddafi’s] presence in the convoy was first picked up by the USAF River Joint RC-135V/W intelligence signals plane, which passed the information to French warplanes overhead who then carried out the strike on Qaddafi’s vehicle. (DEBKAfile, op.,cit.)

The Israeli website also points out that the Germany’s Secret Service the Bundesnachrichtendienst (BND) “played an important role in intelligence-gathering” in revealing where Qaddafi was hiding.

The report further states:

It was generally believed in Tripoli that the strongmen ruling the capital, Abdel Hakim Belhaj, ex-al Qaeda, and Ismail and Ali al-Sallabi, heads of the Libyan Muslim Brotherhood, only granted [Libya’s transitional leader] Abdul-Jalil’s wish for a big liberation rally in Benghazi after he agreed to declare the new Libya a Sharia state. (Ibid.)

This would mean that in reality, Libya’s new leaders are not the members of the National Transitional Council officially backed by NATO and promoted in the Western media as democrats. DEBKAfile‘s sources claim “the transitional leader will be little more than a figurehead”.

NATO’s stated objective in Libya has been “protecting civilians under threat of attack in Libya”. The Alliance declared that in early September “’Friends of Libya’ – heads of state and government as well as representatives of key international and regional organizations – met in Paris to discuss ways to aid Libya’s transition to a functioning democracy”. (NATO, op.,cit.)

However, Western “Friends of Libya” generally see Sharia law as incompatible with democracy.

DEBKA’s report concludes:

A primary objective of the Arab Spring as promoted by the United States and the Western Alliance is the substitution of those dictatorships by fundamental Muslim regimes whose leaders quite frankly usher Sharia law in to the liberated countries. (DEBKAfile, op.,cit.)

It should be noted that, in terms of public relations, Israel would profit from the presence of another Islamic regime, since Israel’s propaganda is largely based on the exisitence of  an alleged “hostile Muslim environment” in the Middle East.

Pakistan and “The Haqqani Network” : The Latest Orchestrated Threat to America and The End of History

by Dr. Paul Craig Roberts | Global Research,

Have you ever before heard of the Haqqanis? I didn’t think so. Like Al Qaeda, about which no one had ever heard prior to 9/11, the “Haqqani Network” has popped up in time of need to justify America’s next war–Pakistan.

President Obama’s claim that he had Al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden exterminated deflated the threat from that long-serving bogyman. A terror organization that left its leader, unarmed and undefended, a sitting duck for assassination no longer seemed formidable. Time for a new, more threatening, bogyman, the pursuit of which will keep the “war on terror” going.

Now America’s “worst enemy” is the Haqqanis. Moreover, unlike Al Qaeda, which was never tied to a country, the Haqqani Network, according to Admiral Mike Mullen, chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, is a “veritable arm” of the Pakistani government’s intelligence service, ISI. Washington claims that the ISI ordered its Haqqani Network to attack the US Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan, on September 13 along with the US military base in Wadak province.

Washington claims that the ISI ordered its Haqqani Network to attack the US Embassy in Kabul, Afghanistan.

Senator Lindsey Graham, a member of the Armed Services committee and one of the main Republican warmongers, declared that “all options are on the table” and gave the Pentagon his assurance that in Congress there was broad bipartisan support for a US military attack on Pakistan.

As Washington has been killing large numbers of Pakistani civilians with drones and has forced the Pakistani army to hunt for Al Qaeda throughout most of Pakistan, producing tens of thousands or more of dislocated Pakistanis in the process, Sen. Graham must have something larger in mind.

The Pakistani government thinks so, too. The Pakistani prime minister,Yousuf Raza Gilani, called his foreign minister home from talks in Washington and ordered an emergency meeting of the government to assess the prospect of an American invasion.

 Meanwhile, Washington is rounding up additional reasons to add to the new threat from the Haqqanis to justify making war on Pakistan: Pakistan has nuclear weapons and is unstable and the nukes could fall into the wrong hands; the US can’t win in Afghanistan until it has eliminated sanctuaries in Pakistan; blah-blah.

Washington has been trying to bully Pakistan into launching a military operation against its own people in North Waziristan. Pakistan has good reasons for resisting this demand. Washington’s use of the new “Haqqani threat” as an invasion excuse could be Washington’s way of overcoming Pakistan’s resistance to attacking its North Waziristan province, or it could be, as some Pakistani political leaders say, and the Pakistani government fears, a “drama” created by Washington to justify a military assault on yet another Muslim country.

Over the years of its servitude as an American puppet, the Pakistan government has brought this on itself. Pakistanis let the US purchase the Pakistan government, train and equip its military, and establish CIA interface with Pakistani intelligence. A government so dependent on Washington could say little when Washington began violating its sovereignty, sending in drones and special forces teams to kill alleged Al Qaeda, but usually women, children, and farmers. Unable to subdue after a decade a small number of Taliban fighters in Afghanistan, Washington has placed the blame for its military failure on Pakistan, just as Washington blamed the long drawn-out war on the Iraqi people on Iran’s alleged support for the Iraqi resistance to American occupation.

Some knowledgeable analysts’ about whom you will never hear in the “mainstream media,” say that the US military/security complex and their neoconservative whores are orchestrating World War III before Russia and China can get prepared. As a result of the communist oppression, a signifiant percentage of the Russian population is in the American orbit. These Russians trust Washington more than they trust Putin. The Chinese are too occupied dealing with the perils of rapid economic growth to prepare for war and are far behind the threat.

War, however, is the lifeblood of the profits of the military/security complex, and war is the chosen method of the neoconservatives for achieving their goal of American hegemony.

Pakistan borders China and former constituent parts of the Soviet Union in which the US now has military bases on Russia’s borders. US war upon and occupation of Pakistan is likely to awaken the somnolent Russians and Chinese. As both possess nuclear ICBMs, the outcome of the military/security complex’s greed for profits and the neoconservatives’ greed for empire could be the extinction of life on earth.

The patriots and super-patriots who fall in with the agendas of the military-security complex and the flag-waving neoconservatives are furthering the “end-times” outcome so fervently desired by the rapture evangelicals, who will waft up to heaven while the rest of us die on earth.

This is not President Reagan’s hoped for outcome from ending the cold war.

You Know About 9/11, Do You Know About 9/16?

9/16 – The Day of 1982, Israeli militia killed 3500 muslims within 36 hours.

A TRUTH THAT IS NEVER REMEMBERED IN THE SEPTEMBERS OF OUR LIVES.

Sabra was the name of a poor neighbourhood in the southern outskirts of west Beirut & Shatila a refuge camp set up for the palestinians in 1949. Over the year the 2 areas became ever more mingled and by the autumn of 1982 their population had been swelled by muslims fleeing the illegal occupation of south lebanon by the israeli army.

On september the 15th of 1982 the israeli militia completely surrounded and sealed off the camps from the outside world they set up observation posts on the roofs of nearby tall building to watch the events of the 16th, 17th and the 18th. In the evening of september 16th, 1982 with permission enguided by israeli flares group of large militia armed with guns, knives and hatchets entered Sabra and Shatila.

DURING THE FOLLOWING 36 HOURS THEY MURDERED 3500 MEN WOMEN AND CHILDREN. THE FIGURES ARE DISPUTED. IT’S DIFFICULT TO COUNT. THE SOULS OF THOSE BURIED TANGLED IN MASS GRAVES OR CRUSHED UNDER THOSE VERY HOUSES THEY SOUGHT REFUGE FROM WITHIN OR SCATTERED FACE DOWN ON ROADSIDES. FLEFING ON WITNESSING THE MASSACRE WE ARE TOLD BY JOURNALISTS THAT THEIR STORIES WERE WRITTEN BY THE FLIES THAT WOULD LAND ON THEIR NOTEPADS WEARING boots of blood AND WARLORD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS ULTRA-VIOLANCE WAS LATER REWARDED WITH THE PROUD PRIME MINISTRIAL COLOURS OF HIS NATION. TO THIS DAY NO ONE HAS BEEN PROSECUTED FOR THIS MASS MURDER.

Those screams of the mate licked anguish and those dark colonial knights on the beirut suburb have only amplified of every passing year. There martyres will continue to haunt us to learn what is it that they will teach me. Never to trust which is precious to those who cannot and will not value it.

LEARN, LEARN TO VALUE THE BLOOD ON THOSE BOOTS. LET ME CATCH IT AND DROP A PROMISE. PROMISE TO MY CHILDREN AND THEIR CHILDREN. AFTER THEM WILL LEARN THE TRUTH. THAT OUR ARMS MUST THICKEN AND OUR SHOULDERS MUST BROADEN SO THAT WE CAN BEAR THE RESPONSIBILITIES OF PROTECTING WHAT IS OURS TO SURVIVE THOSE BLOODY CORRIDORS OF SABRA AND SHATILA. A CHILDS HEAD MUST ONLY MEET WITH THE LIPS OF ITS MOTHER NOT THE EDGE OF AN AXE. THE ONE WE LOVE MUST BE BURIED IN WHITE CLOTHS NOT UNDER DIESEL CATERPILLAR TRUCKS OF HATE. THE SHELTERS WE BUILD SHOULD NOT BE USED TO CRUSH. THE LIFE THEY GIVE SANCTION TO BENEATH THEM AND THE THICKEST ARMS AND BROADEST SHOULDERS ARE THOSE OF THE CALIPHS.

The Destabilization of Syria and the Broader Middle East War

by Michel Chossudovsky

What is unfolding in Syria is an armed insurrection supported covertly by foreign powers including the US, Turkey and Israel.

Armed insurgents belonging to Islamist organizations have crossed the border from Turkey, Lebanon and Jordan. The US State Department has confirmed that it is supporting the insurgency.

The United States is to expand contacts with Syrians who are counting on a regime change in the country.

This was stated by U.S. State Department official Victoria Nuland. “We started to expand contacts with the Syrians, those who are calling for change, both inside and outside the country,” she said.

Nuland also repeated that Barack Obama had previously called on Syrian President Bashar Assad to initiate reforms or to step down from power.” (Voice of Russia, June 17, 2011)

The destabilization of Syria and Lebanon as sovereign countries has been on the drawing board of the US-NATO-Israel military alliance for at least ten years.

Action against Syria is part of a “military roadmap”, a sequencing of military operations. According to former NATO Commander General Wesley Clark–the Pentagon  had clearly identified Iraq, Libya, Syria and Lebanon as target countries of a US-NATO intervention:

“[The] Five-year campaign plan [included]… a total of seven countries, beginning with Iraq, then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia and Sudan” (Pentagon official quoted by General Wesley Clark)

In “Winning Modern Wars” (page 130) General Wesley Clark states the following:

“As I went back through the Pentagon in November 2001, one of the senior military staff officers had time for a chat. Yes, we were still on track for going against Iraq, he said. But there was more. This was being discussed as part of a five-year campaign plan, he said, and there were a total of seven countries, beginning with Iraq, then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Iran, Somalia and Sudan.

…He said it with reproach–with disbelief, almost–at the breadth of the vision. I moved the conversation away, for this was not something I wanted to hear. And it was not something I wanted to see moving forward, either. …I left the Pentagon that afternoon deeply concerned.”

The objective is to destabilize the Syrian State and implement “regime change” through the covert support of an armed insurgency, integrated by Islamist militia. The reports on civilian deaths are used to provide a pretext and a justification for humanitarian intervention under the principle “Responsiblity to Protect”.

Media Disinformation

Tacitly acknowledged , the significance of an armed insurrection is casually dismissed by the Western media. If it were to be recognized and analysed, our understanding of unfolding events would be entirely different.

What is mentioned profusely is that the armed forces and the police are involved in the indiscriminate killing of civilian protesters. Press reports confirm, however, from the outset of the protest movement an exchange of gunfire between armed insurgents and the police, with casualties reported on both sides.

The insurrection started in mid March in the border city of Daraa, which is 10 km from the Jordanian border.

The Daraa “protest movement” on March 18 had all the appearances of a staged event involving, in all likelihood, covert support to Islamic terrorists by Mossad and/or Western intelligence. Government sources point to the role of radical Salafist groups (supported by Israel)

Other reports have pointed to the role of Saudi Arabia in financing the protest movement.

What has unfolded in Daraa in the weeks following the initial violent clashes on 17-18 March, is the confrontation between the police and the armed forces on the one hand and armed units of terrorists and snipers on the other which have infiltrated the protest movement.

….

What is clear from these initial reports is that many of the demonstrators were not demonstrators but terrorists involved in premeditated acts of killing and arson. The title of the Israeli news report summarizes what happened:  Syria: Seven Police Killed, Buildings Torched in Protests.

(See Michel Chossudovsky, SYRIA: Who is Behind The Protest Movement? Fabricating a Pretext for a US-NATO “Humanitarian Intervention”, http://www.globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=24591 Global Research,  May 3, 2011)

The Role of Turkey

The center of the insurrection has now shifted to the small border town of Jisr al-Shughour, 10 km from the Turkish border.

Jisr al-Shughour has a population of 44,000 inhabitants. Armed insurgents have crossed the border from Turkey.

Members of the Muslim Brotherhood are reported to have taken up arms in northwest Syria.

There are indications that Turkish military and intelligence are supporting these incursions.

There was no mass civilian protest movement in Jisr al-Shughour. The local population was caught in the crossfire. The fighting between armed rebels and government forces has contributed to triggering a refugee crisis, which is the center of media attention.

In contrast, in the nation’s capital Damascus, where the mainstay of social movements is located, there have been mass rallies in support rather than in opposition to the government.

President Bashir al Assad is casually compared to presidents Ben Ali of Tunisia and Hosni Mubarak of Egypt. What the mainstream media has failed to mention is that despite the authoritarian nature of the regime, president Al Assad is a popular figure who has widespread support of the Syrian population.

The large rally in Damascus on March 29, “with tens of thousands of supporters” (Reuters) of President Al Assad was barely mentioned. Yet in an unusual twist, the images and video footage of several pro-government events were used by the Western media to convince international public opinion that the President was being confronted by mass anti-government rallies.

On June 15, thousands of people rallied over several kilometers on Damascus’ main highway in a march holding up a 2.3 km Syrian flag. The rally was acknowledged by the media and casually dismissed as irrelevant.

AP. Thousands of supporters of Syrian President Bashar Assad carry a 2,300-metre-long Syrian flag in a demonstration in Damascus on Wednesday.

While the Syrian regime is by no means democratic, the objective of the US-NATO Israel military alliance is not to promote democracy. Quite the opposite. Washington’s intent is to eventually install a puppet regime.

The objective through media disinformation is to demonize president Al Assad and more broadly to destabilize Syria as a secular state. The latter objective is implemented through covert support of  various Islamist organizations:

Syria is run by an authoritarian oligarchy which has used brute force in dealing with its citizens. The riots in Syria, however, are complex. They cannot be viewed as a straightforward quest for liberty and democracy. There has been an attempt by the U.S. and the E.U. to use the riots in Syria to pressure and intimidate the Syrian leadership. Saudi Arabia, Israel, Jordan, and the March 14 Alliance have all played a role in supporting an armed insurrection.

The violence in Syria has been supported from the outside with a view of taking advantage of the internal tensions… Aside from the violent reaction of the Syrian Army, media lies have been used and bogus footage has been aired. Money and weapons have also been funnelled to elements of the Syrian opposition by the U.S., the E.U….Funding has also been provided to ominous and unpopular foreign-based Syrian opposition figures, while weapons caches were smuggled from Jordan and Lebanon into Syria. (Mahdi Darius Nazemroaya, America’s Next War Theater: Syria and Lebanon? http://globalresearch.ca/index.php?context=va&aid=25000, Global Research, June 10, 2011)

The joint Israel-Turkey military and intelligence agreement

The geopolitics of this process of destabilization are far-reaching. Turkey is involved in supporting the rebels.

The Turkish government has sanctioned Syrian opposition groups in exile which support an armed insurgency. Turkey is also pressuring Damascus to conform to Washington’s demands for regime change.

Turkey is a member of NATO with a powerful military force. Moreover, Israel and Turkey have a longstanding joint military-intelligence agreement, which is explicitly directed against Syria.

…A 1993 Memorandum of Understanding led to the creation of (Israeli-Turkish) “joint committees” to handle so-called regional threats. Under the terms of the Memorandum, Turkey and Israel agreed “to cooperate in gathering intelligence on Syria, Iran, and Iraq and to meet regularly to share assessments pertaining to terrorism and these countries’ military capabilities.”

Turkey agreed to allow IDF and Israeli security forces to gather electronic intelligence on Syria and Iran from Turkey. In exchange, Israel assisted in the equipping and training of Turkish forces in anti-terror warfare along the Syrian, Iraqi, and Iranian borders.”

…

Already during the Clinton Administration, a triangular military alliance between the US, Israel and Turkey had unfolded. This “triple alliance”, which is dominated by the US Joint Chiefs of Staff, integrates and coordinates military command decisions between the three countries pertaining to the broader Middle East. It is based on the close military ties respectively of Israel and Turkey with the US, coupled with a strong bilateral military relationship between Tel Aviv and Ankara. ….

The triple alliance is also coupled with a 2005 NATO-Israeli military cooperation agreement which includes “many areas of common interest, such as the fight against terrorism and joint military exercises. These military cooperation ties with NATO are viewed by the Israeli military as a means to “enhance Israel’s deterrence capability regarding potential enemies threatening it, mainly Iran and Syria.” (See Michel Chossudovsky,“Triple Alliance”: The US, Turkey, Israel and the War on Lebanon, August 6, 2006)

Covert  support to armed insurgents out of Turkey or Jordan would no doubt be coordinated under the joint Israel-Turkey military and intelligence agreement.

Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan with (former) Prime Minister Ariel Sharon (2004)

Dangerous Crossroads: The Broader Middle East War

Israel and NATO signed a far-reaching military cooperation agreement in 2005. Under this agreement, Israel is considered a de facto member of NATO.

If a military operation were to be launched against Syria, Israel would in all likelihood be involved in military undertakings alongside NATO forces (under the NATO-Israel bilateral agreement).  Turkey would also play an active military role.

A military intervention in Syria on fake humanitarian grounds would lead to an escalation of the US-NATO led war over a large area extending from North Africa and the Middle East to Central Asia, from the Eastern Mediterranean to China’s Western frontier with Afghanistan and Pakistan.

It would also contribute to a process of political destabilization in Lebanon, Jordan and Palestine. It would also set the stage for a conflict with Iran.

Special Report : World War 3 Looming

Infowars Insider: World War 3 Report

As noted in our previous newsletter and in detailed reports posted on Infowars.com and Prison Planet.com, the agenda during the meeting of the globalists at Bilderberg 2011 in Switzerland last week focused on a plan for expanded war in Libya and the Middle East. The purpose of this criminal expansion is three fold – to spread chaos throughout the region and install new regimes amenable to the elite and their banking system domination; to profit as banksters have for centuries on war and misery; and finally to further weaken the global economy by raising the price of oil, disrupting its delivery, and introducing the economic decline war brings.

On Wednesday, Infowars.com received additional confirmation that an escalation of the Libyan conflict is now in the works. In a report filed by Aaron Dykes, a source located at Fort Hood in Texas said Special Forces will head to Libya in July and the 1st Calvary Division (heavy armor) and III Corps will deploy in late October and early November.

“This information was confirmed by numerous calls and e-mails from other military personnel, some indicating large troop deployment as early as September,” Dykes reported. “Among these supporting sources is a British S.A.S. officer confirming that U.S. Army Rangers are already in Libya. The chatter differs in the details, but the overall convergence is clear- that a full-on war is emerging this fall as Gaddafi continues to evade attempts to remove him from power.”

On Tuesday, we reported that the CIA has expanded its drone war from Pakistan into Yemen on the Arabian Peninsula. Obama approved the secret plan without consulting Congress last year. It has been under development for several months and is set to be rolled out in July. In May, the State Department ordered all “non-essential” U.S. diplomats and family members to leave Yemen immediately. It also issued a warning to Americans to abstain from traveling to Yemen.

On Thursday, the Israeli intelligence propaganda site, DEBKAfile, reported that U.S. warships are being moved to the Mediterranean coast of Syria, precisely in line with forecasts that the Bilderberg Group intended to launch a massive new war in the Middle East, writes Prison Planet journalist and editor Paul Joseph Watson.

The Israeli IDF claims Hezbollah in Lebanon now has approximately 50,000 missiles, including long-range missiles it received from Iran. “Hezbollah cruise missiles could threaten US ships with anti-ship missiles with a range of 65 miles,” Secretary of Defense Robert Gates said late last month. The Israeli website Ynet News cites Israeli security officials who say Hezbollah currently has no less than 550 bunkers, 300 surveillance sites and 100 other facilities.

Since Israel’s invasion in 2006, both Hezbollah and Israel have prepared for war

Since Israel’s invasion in 2006, both Hezbollah and Israel have prepared for war. On Sunday, the Jewish state will conduct a nationwide drill intended to prepare its 7.5 million citizens, the security establishment, and civil emergency services for the possibility of war, according to People’s Daily Online. Israel, Hezbollah, Syria, and Iran have all prepared for war over the last year and Israel has conducted a number of civil defense exercises, including exercises for chemical warfare attacks.

The global elite are working behind the scenes to make a large and catastrophic war a reality between now and the end of the year. A nuclear dimension to any conflict cannot be underestimated – Israel and Pakistan have sizable nuclear arsenals (Pakistan is engaged in a fifty plus year game of brinkmanship with nuclear rival India). Iran, Syria, Saudi Arabia, the Arab Emirates, and Jordan have sophisticated military arsenals.

Order out of Chaos – and profit through war and mass murder – is the mantra of the global elite. In addition to representing a military hardware bonanza for the bankers and their transnational aerospace corporations, a big war in the Middle East, South Asia, and now Africa will also reduce the surface population to a considerable degree, as did the last World War. This aspect also works in favor of the globalist agenda with its eugenics obsession and contempt for human life.
