A hierarchical society is only possible on the basis of poverty and ignorance, this new version is the past and no different past can ever have existed. In principle the war effort is always planned to keep society on the brink of starvation.

How the US fuelled the rise of Isis in Syria and Iraq war on terror, that campaign without end launched 14 years ago by George Bush, is tying itself up in ever more grotesque contortions. On Monday the trial in London of a Swedish man, Bherlin Gildo, accused of
terrorism in Syria, collapsed after it became clear British intelligence had been arming the same rebel groups the defendant was charged with supporting.

US soldiers resisting Obama's support of Al Qaeda
U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency's previously classified 2012 report on the origin of the Islamic insurgency against Bashar al-Assad was released to the public on 18 May 2015, and it revealed the Obama Administration's knowledge, at least since that time, that "the Salafist [Saudi-backed fundamentalist Sunni Islamic], the Muslim Brotherhood [Qatari-backed fundamentalist Sunni Islamic] and AQI [Al Qaeda in Iraq] are the major forces driving the insurgency in Syria", and acknowledgement that "the West, Gulf countries [Saudi Arabia and Qatar mainly], and Turkey support the opposition [to Bashar al-Assad], while Russia, China, and Iran support the regime", so that the U.S. Government is, in fact, allied with Al Qaeda there, to overthrow Assad.

Tracing ISIS’ Weapons Supply Chain—Back to the US
https://www.wired.com/story/terror-industrial-complex-isis-munitions-supply-chain/

the summer of 2012, David H. Petraeus, who was then C.I.A. director, first proposed a covert program of arming and training
rebels as Syrian government forces bore down on them.

The proposal forced a debate inside the Obama administration, with some of Mr. Obama’s top aides arguing that Syria’s chaotic battlefield
would make it nearly impossible to ensure that weapons provided by the C.I.A. could be kept out of the hands of militant groups like the
Nusra Front. Mr. Obama rejected the plan.

But he changed his mind the following year, signing a presidential finding authorizing the C.I.A. to covertly arm and train small groups
of rebels at bases in Jordan. The president’s reversal came in part because of intense lobbying by foreign leaders, including
King Abdullah II of Jordan and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel, who argued that the
United States should take a more active role in trying to end the conflict.

US war crimes in Syria exposed
The United States committed war crimes of staggering proportions last year during its four-month-long siege of the Syrian city
of Raqqa, demolishing up to 80 percent of the city with an unrelenting blitzkrieg of
bombs and artillery shells that killed hundreds of civilians.
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2018/06/07/pers-j07.html

Democrats Helped Cultivate the Barbarism of ISIS
The clue, after all, was in the name. With the US and Gulf states using oil money to wage a proxy war against Assad, ISIS saw its chance to
establish a state inspired by a variety of Saudi Arabia’s Wahhabist dogma. ISIS needed territory for their planned state, and the Saudis and
US obliged by destroying Syria.

This barbarian army, one that murdered other religious groups as infidels and killed fellow Sunnis who refused to bow before their absolute
rule, became the west’s chief allies in Syria. Directly and covertly, we gave them money and weapons to begin building their state on parts of Syria.

Again, let us ignore the fact that the US, in helping to destroy a sovereign nation, committed the supreme war crime, one that in a rightly
ordered world would ensure every senior Washington official faces their own Nuremberg Trial. Let us ignore too for the moment that the US,
consciously through its
actions, brought to life a monster that sowed death and destruction everywhere it went.

WikiLeaks Reveals How the US Aggressively Pursued Regime Change in Syria, Igniting a Bloodbath
A December 13, 2006 cable, “Influencing the SARG [Syrian government] in the End of 2006,”1 indicates that, as far back as 2006 –
five years before “Arab Spring” protests in Syria – destabilizing the Syrian government was a central motivation of US policy.
The author of the cable was William Roebuck, at the time chargé d’affaires at the US embassy in Damascus. The cable outlines
strategies for destabilizing the Syrian government. In his summary of the cable, Roebuck wrote:
We believe Bashar’s weaknesses are in how he chooses to react to looming issues, both perceived and real, such as the conflict between
economic reform steps (however limited) and entrenched, corrupt forces, the Kurdish question, and the potential threat to the regime from the
increasing presence of transiting Islamist extremists. This cable summarizes our assessment of these vulnerabilities and suggests that there
may be actions, statements, and signals that the USG can send that will improve the likelihood of such opportunities arising.
Roebuck thus argued that the US should try to destabilize the Syrian government by coordinating more closely with Egypt and
Saudi Arabia to fan sectarian tensions between Sunni and Shia, including by the promotion of “exaggerated” fears of Shia
proselytizing of Sunnis, and of concern about “the spread of Iranian influence” in Syria in the form of mosque construction and business activity.

The Smearing of Robert Fisk…Now That He Can’t Defend Himself

But Fisk infuriated these western al-Nusra lobbyists even further when he visited the town of Douma in 2018 and raised
serious questions about claims made by the jihadists who had been ruling the town that, just before Assad’s forces drove them out,
the Syrian military had bombed it with chemical gas, killing many civilians. The story, which at that stage was based exclusively
on the claims of these head-chopping jihadists, was instantly reported as verified fact by the credulous western media.

Based solely on claims made by the al-Qaeda franchise in Douma, President Donald Trump hurriedly fired off missiles at Syria, in
flagrant violation of international law and to cheers from the western media.

Fisk, of course, knew that in discrediting the evidence-free narrative being promoted by the western press corps
(who had never been in Douma) he was doing himself no favours at all. They would resent him all the more. Most of his peers
preferred to ignore his revelations, even though they were earth-shattering in their implications. But once the official watchdog body
the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) issued its report into Douma many months later, implicitly backing the jihadists’
version of events, Fisk’s earlier coverage was snidely dismissed by fellow journalists.

Sadly for them, however, the story did not end there. Following publication of the OPCW’s Douma report, a number of its senior
experts started coming forward as whistleblowers to say that, under pressure from the US, the OPCW bureaucracy tampered with their
research and misrepresented their findings in the final report. The evidence they had found indicated that Assad had not carried out
a chemical attack in Douma. More likely the jihadists, who were about to be expelled by Assad’s forces, had staged the scene to make
it look like a chemical attack and draw the US deeper into Syria.

Of course, just as the corporate media ignored Fisk’s original reporting from Douma that would have made their own accounts
sound like journalistic malpractice, they resolutely ignored the whistleblowers too. You can scour the corporate media and
you will be lucky to find even an allusion to the months-long row over the OPCW report, which gained enough real-world
prominence to erupt into a major row at the United Nations, including denunciations of the
OPCW’s behaviour from the organisation’s former head, Jose Bustani.

The Qatari state has been accused of playing a central role in a secret money laundering operation to send hundreds of millions of dollars to jihadists in Syria.
A claim issued this week at the High Court in London alleges that a private office of the Gulf state’s monarch was at the heart of clandestine routes by which money was transferred to an al-Qaeda affiliate, the Nusra Front.
Two Qatari banks, several charities, wealthy businessmen, leading politicians and civil servants are among the defendants in a claim for damages lodged by nine Syrians.
