Associated Press
carries almost daily reports of deadly CIA activity in Pakistan and
Afghanistan, but even in progressive journalism it is the domestic
policies put forth by the current U.S. president (who surely must be
taking, not giving, orders from Robert Gates, Leon Panetta heads of the
Central Intelligence Agency) that deserve attention. The CIA, by law
connected up solely and secretly to the chief executive, is in
itself a glaring contradiction to claims of democracy in the U.S., but
this also goes largely unaddressed even on the progressive sites of the
Internet.
Unfortunately, it seems that progressives and even socialists in the U.S. are overly cooperative with mainstream media and Congress in hardly ever asking after a secret CIA shadow government.
Almost since the CIA was founded, well before the Korean "police action' devastation, CIA operatives, in every country in the world, have been acting as commandos penetrating local society, preparing political, financial and where necessary military domination. Its four billion dollar base legal budget is known, but its vast private funding is not. Its mammoth financial empire fueled by corporate donations and funding and far flung net of banks, enterprises, publications, media outlets and infiltrated agencies within U.S. and foreign governments has been researched, documented and much of it can be found on line. CIA exploits of assassinations, overthrowing elected government and hiring goons to support U.S. business friendly dictatorships have become legendary.
A few scholarly sites on the Internet always manage to fill in a bit of what is intentionally blacked out in the Pentagon counseled and fed commercial mass media of the Western pseudo-democracies. Here, Michael Chossudovsky, consultant with a half-dozen UN agencies and publisher of Global Research out of Canada tells us:
"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. 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."
"Action against Syria is part of a 'military roadmap', a sequencing of military operations. According to former NATO Commander General Wesley Clark--by late 2001, 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.' General Wesley Clark states the following:
"The objective is to destabilize the Syrian State and implement "regime change" through the covert support of an armed insurgency, integrated by Islamist militia. "Reports on civilian deaths are used to provide a pretext and a justification for humanitarian intervention under the principle "Responsibility to Protect'."
[Pentagon official quoted by General Wesley Clark in Winning Modern Wars (page 130)]
'Responsibility to Protect' brought UN authorized bombing and Western reconquering of a wealthy Libya (recognized by the same UN as having an Human Development Index higher that than nine European countries with fine free heath care and higher education) only after a successful armed insurrection (similar to Syria's) called for by a CIA funded Libyan exile organization in London. CNN and al Jazeera produced a saturation of stories of peaceful protests being fired upon, but without corroboration and in contradiction to Reuters and even early BBC coverage of mass murder executions of government soldiers by heavily armed gangs and few civilian casualties.[5]
CNN reports incessantly that the Syrian armed forces and the police are shooting civilian protesters to death usually in double digit numbers. Independent press reports, however, confirm, from the outset of the protest movement, an exchange of gunfire between armed insurgents and the police, with casualties reported on both sides.
In The Destabilization of Syria and the Broader Middle East War , By Michael Chossudovsky writes, "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"
One would be naive to believe that after the half-century of brutal occupation of the Arab lands of Syria, Lebanon, Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco by France and those of Iraq, Jordan, Palestine, Egypt, Sudan, Somaliland, Aden, and Yemen by the British, with both occupying Libya after W.W.II, that British M16 and and the French Secret Service would not be indispensable for the johnny-come-lately America empire and its CIA.
But one would have to be even more naive to believe the excellent secret service of Israel, Mossad, at war with the Arab world since 1948 was not playing a key role in Syria and Libya, two adamant adversaries of the UN created State of Israel. Here below is some background of planning that predates the Pentagon briefing of Gen. Clark:
Experts Fear Israeli Design to Balkanize Arab States By Adam Morrow and Khaled Moussa al-Omrani, 6/19/11
" A Strategy for Israel in the 1980s written in 1981 by Oded Yinon, then a senior advisor for Israel's foreign ministry. The essay explicitly calls for breaking up the Arab states of the region along ethnic and sectarian lines. "The dissolution of Syria and Iraq later on into ethnically or religiously unique areas is Israel's primary target on the eastern front in the long run."
A few years ago, New Yorker published investigative reporter Seymour Hersh tried to awaken interest in what the CIA was doing all these years in Iraq during the massive amount of sectarian violence that U.S. government spokespersons and subservient media constantly pointed to as the reason "we have to stay in Iraq.' Almost no one took up this topic in alternative media.
For decades CIA has sponsored, provoked, initiated, and or prepared overt invasion and occupation by clandestine initiating and stoking civil wars in Greece, Korea, Iran, Guatemala, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, Lebanon, Dominican Republic, Cuba, Indonesia, Chile, Guatemala, El Salvador, Nicaragua, and Columbia, and is notorious for its success in arranging fratricide to look unprovoked by outside forces. The motive always being to prevent unified independent nations capable of negotiating for their own trade and prosperity.
