OUTRAGE!

What is happening in Syria, is a slow-motion, illegal, part-alien invasion, part-internal armed & murdering subversion, which is destroying the fabric of the country, as 1000s of innocent citizens are being killed, mostly by the attackers with some as 'collaterals' to legitimate govt. defensive operations. That the Syrian govt. resists this outrage is *correct*, as one of the prime tasks of govt.. That the US is involved, as 'accelerant' and supporter from before the start, is continuing its involvement - *proven* by Kerry’s boast, to ‘double aid’ to the ‘rebels’ - is not at all in doubt, but is touted by US-MSM plus sycophants. They admit that the CIA is supervising the import of arms and mercenaries through Turkey. Perhaps worse, the UN is involved - but *not* to stop the carnage; not effectively stopping the ‘rebel’ attacks means actually encouraging murder and the eventual US-planned rapine.

It’s not new; see Libya, Iraq, Afghanistan, ... Vietnam, N.Korea, Palestine - the latter on-going, thanks, but “No, thanks!” to *all* Jews (except genuine resisters = totally ineffective), and all world regimes not screaming for a stop to Zionists’ ethnic cleansing of pre-UNGA181 Palestine by murdering, thieving, *genocidal* methods.

Obviously, in this current worst of all worlds, there can be no security - in Syria, and in your own neighbourhood soon enough - when the supposed ‘peace-police’ are corrupt.

White House Says It Believes Syria Has Used Chemical Arms
By MARK LANDLER and ERIC SCHMITT
  «WASHINGTON — The White House said Thursday that it believes the Syrian government has used chemical weapons in its civil war, an assessment that could test President Obama’s repeated warnings that such an attack could precipitate American intervention in Syria.
... the nation’s intelligence agencies assessed “with varying degrees of confidence” that ...» 
[nytimes/'news']

Comment 1: Note that 'belief' may be done on little or *no* information; see lemma {2}.

Comment 2: Note that "varying degrees of confidence" = no agreement ($US60bio+ p/a) = someone - here some 'intel' or input - is lying, 'normal' suspect = Zs.

Comment 3: Note that such articles from the NYT are mainly (lying) propaganda anyway; no real need to read any more of it.

The Convoluted Path to ‘Chemical Weapons’ Belief
 Jason Ditz, April 25, 2013
  «Later Tuesday: Secretary of State John Kerry calls Benjamin Netanyahu to specifically press him on Brun’s claim. Kerry says Netanyahu was unable to confirm the allegation at all, while Netanyahu’s office refuses to make any public comments on the call or Brun’s claim. Kerry follows up with this non-proof by pushing NATO to send more aid to Syria’s rebels.
Wednesday: Hagel points out how weird it is that no one in Israel told him any of this stuff during his visit, in which he (civilian leader of the US military) met with Israeli military officials.
Thursday: The White House says it believes Syria has used chemical weapons on a “small scale.” Hagel says he believes that too.»

Comment 1: Note: "Kerry follows up with this non-proof by pushing NATO to send more aid to Syria’s rebels." More on this below.

Comment 2: Note: "Hagel says he believes that too," then review 'belief based on zero info,' see lemma {2}.

Contra-article 2:

Why Obama’s Chemical Weapons ‘Red Line’ in Syria Is Bogus
 John Glaser, April 25, 2013
  «Last year, President Obama outlined what would be a “red line” for his administration, beyond which arguments against going to war in Syria would lose their weight. In August 2012 he said, “A red line for us is we start seeing a whole bunch of chemical weapons moving around or being utilized.”» 
[antiwar/Glaser]

Comment: Almost all Obama&Co (i.e. each US president, the State Dept, the CIA et al. and especially the Pentagon) seem to do, is to consider where next to attack some (non-cooperative) resource-owner. Then having decided, they try to 'convince' the electorate - in itself peculiar, since the electorate is effectively neutered - see lemma {1}.

-=*=-

Argument: I dimly recall the 'ascendency' of the current al-Assad, Bashar, following the death of his father Hafez. There was some concern about the older brother Bassel taking over, and some relief when the older died and the succession passed to the younger. Bashar al-Assad was a bit 'Westernised' and tried some neoliberal 'reforms,' but at a rough guess Syria was considered insufficiently (US-)compliant, AND/OR the only 'road to Tehran' the US/Zs wish to use 'runs through Damascus.' (About 12,100,000 results). At any rate, Wesley Clark (7 countries in 5 years; About 1,630,000 results) accurately foretold the US-attack on Syria now underway. Recently, Kerry promised to 'double aid to Syrian rebels,' thus *proving* what is an 'open secret,' namely that the US is up to its (murdering to steal) bottom-lip in subverting Syria. None of the above should be unknown to current affairs aficionados, let alone at all controversial.

Then kindly consider these two quotes: "where the oil resources constitute a stupendous source of strategic power, and one of the greatest material prizes in world history", *PLUS* "... But in the political field we are the attackers and the Arabs are those defending themselves. They are living in the country and own the land, ..." might give a glimpse of a few horrible truths.

The quote-sources may be found by some judicious google-searches, but again should not be at all controversial. The hideous truth of the matter is that there are two evil rogue-regimes active, 'merrily' murdering to steal, practically at will.

-=*=-

Fazit: Long story short; in many jurisdictions, it is an offence to ignore a serious accident, and an even worse offence to ignore a crime in progress. So where are the truth&justice seekers, and why are they not taking effective steps to halt then correct the horrendous depredations of the horridly criminal Z and US regimes?

My dream? - That the wait for effective help will not be long.

Lemmas:

{1} Our ('Western') democracies are 'sham' = tyrannies.

A properly-functioning democracy has at least three preconditions; a fully&fairly informed electorate, a wide choice of *bona fide* candidates who, upon election, faithfully and effectively work *for* we, the people's best interests. Aus, as many 'Western' so-called democracies, arguably fails all three preconditions.

Proofs: A proof of being *mis*-informed = the Iraq imbroglio; 'they' (B, B & H, say) *knowingly* lied to us, proof = all 'intel-sources' were bogus, identified as such beforehand, and not even *one* miserable, little WMD was ever found – and they looked, and looked ...

A *dis*-proof of 'wide choice' is the deliberate 'false dichotomy' of a notionally 'two-party' system, and associated 'platforms' - incapable of offering any sane grouping of life-choices.

A proof of being *mis*-represented = when reps sell-out to the 'big end of town' (newly '<1%,' thnx OWS), they clearly are *not* representing us, we the people. More; bipartisan = un- & anti-democratic (implementation of neoliberalism, say - or war) - since bipartisan offers the voters *zero* choice. Neoliberalism is (always was) *not* in we the people's interest; proof = continuing wealth-transfer from the 99%+ to the <1%. Additional proof of neoliberalism = bad for the 99%+ is the climbing prices of privatised services (toll-boothing) and the falling household = labour share of income (globalisation; wage/job arbitration), aka spiral-down for the 99%+.

IF sham-democracy can be proven (which I claim QED) THEN all laws that result are invalid = (should be) inoperative.

IF it's not "of, by, for (us, we the people)" THEN it's not "as advertised" = defective product; AND "no taxation without (non-fake) representation" THEN refund our mis-directed $s – plus %, don't need "Please."

{2} There is no (can be no - perceivable) g*d.

Proof: Any (putative) god [n. 1 a (in many religions) superhuman being [POD]] is defined as *outside* our (= 'the') universe (as some claimed 'creator,' say). Everything *inside* the universe is based on matter or energy - which Einstein showed are interchangeable (e = mc**2). By the conservation 'laws' (no known exception, none expected), matter/energy may neither be created nor destroyed. Since information is 'mediated' by matter/energy, no 'external' info may reach into the universe, so any 'entity' outside the universe is ‘blatantly,’ ‘obviously’ & ‘utterly’ unreachable to any inside, and vice-versa. QED

Note: This may not exhaustively preclude the existence of any supernatural anythings, just that we may never know of/communicate with any such – nor could such affect any thing/person. IF there can be no communication, neither to nor from, THEN what's to discuss? One could appeal to 'common sense,' but it's seemingly quite rare. Consider Occam's razor; what could any g*d offer? IF the conservation laws are correct (which I claim) THEN no creator required, just some 'phase-change.' Add 2nd thermo-law (entropy tends to increase), then no Qs outstanding.

What monkey can't see, monkey can't do; any 'belief' (here in some g*d = supernatural) is done based on *no* information - by definition.

A PS on belief:

Try this google: quote tony blair "I passionately believe"

About 1,510,000 results

Tells us almost all we need to know really; the 'icing on the cake' being Blair's 'self-conversion' to Roman Catholicism after the illegal "Shock'n whore" attack = smashing of Iraq = *millions* dead who otherwise would be alive, *more* millions both internally displaced and outright fled, infrastructure destroyed = life in Iraq back to 'the stone age.' Thanks, but "No, thanks!" to Blair as part of the B, B & H mass-murdering to steal trio + others in the 'coalition of the killing.'

The only important operable belief 'our tyrants' have, is that they can get away with their wicked crimes; Q: Why does the world let 'em?

UN approves first ever global arms trade treaty
 By Brendan Trembath, wires
 Posted April 03, 2013 08:51:44
  «"The agreement of the arms trade treaty sends a clear message to arms dealers who supply warlords and dictators that their time is up," said Anna Macdonald of the global development group Oxfam.
"They will no longer be able to operate and arm themselves with impunity. The world will be watching and will hold them accountable."
Amnesty International's Frank Jannuzi said the NRA, which claimed credit last year for persuading the United States to block the treaty in July 2012, had failed this time.» 
[ausBC/'news']

20 years, they say, wrangling about this - and suddenly a breakthrough, simultaneously isolating three of US' 'prime' targets - such an unexpected coincidence! And NGOs preening, "Look what we can do!"

Liars all.

This is nothing but breathless hypocrisy; the text was obviously constructed such that Syria, Iran and N.Korea were made to feel that they had no other option but to vote against it, and Russia (amongst others) abstained. Funny, that Syria, Iran and N.Korea are US-declared 'enemies,' N.Korea having already long ago been smashed:


“After destroying North Korea’s 78 cities and thousands of her villages, and killing countless numbers of her civilians, [General] LeMay remarked, “Over a period of three years or so we killed off – what – twenty percent of the population.” It is now believed that the population north of the imposed 38th Parallel lost nearly a third its population of 8 – 9 million people during the 37-month long “hot” war, 1950 – 1953, perhaps an unprecedented percentage of mortality suffered by one nation due to the belligerance [sic] of another.” (quoted in Richard Rhodes, “The General and World War III,” The New Yorker, June 19, 1995, p. 53.)


N.Korea is still under US-pressure; some say their latest threats are actually a call for direct negotiations - to get that pressure *off* them.

Iran suffered a violent, anti-democratic US/UK coup in 1953, since the Iranians took their country back in 1979, the US has mercilessly pursued them. The US(NATO) plus Arab League is now sponsoring alien invaders to infiltrate and attack Syria, and not so long ago F+UK/NATO smashed Libya. Some NGOs 'help' in these smashings; unless so-called responsible entities actively oppose crimes-in-progress, they make themselves accessories.

Vis-à-vis Iraq, the UN did nothing +ve, the then UN-Sec-Gen admitted that the US/UK/Aus attack was illegal - and yet now, the UN and various NGOs are celebrating a treaty which may, one day, do something against the dirty, *murdering* arms business, which the US leads, and Germany, say, supplies nuclear-capable submarines to Israel - the same Israel that has stolen most of pre-UNGA181 Palestine = ethnic cleansing by genocidal methods, seemingly UN-approved - or at least, *proven* by the bloody, 65+ year long status quo, UN-tolerated.

The situation is much worse than this 'quickie' describes; we are being 'smothered' in vast lie-clouds, while the <1% consolidates its control over the world, syphoning ever more of our, we (= 99%+) the people's $s into their already obscenely rich pockets, and allowing the ruining of our once jewel-like planet's comfortable life-supporting ecosphere.
