‘Truth Will Come Out’ of Western Hand Behind Terrorism

“The ‘Islamic State’ has reached unprecedented and likely unexpected proportions never achieved by the nebulous ‘al-Qaeda’ – a creation of the American FBI and CIA – and has gone well beyond the control of its Western mentors, using Qatar and Saudi Arabia as intermediaries. The truth will come out and the world will know that the United States and the more proactive countries of the European Union are no strangers to the advent of cross-border terrorism and to the disorder that now threatens world security.”

The Islamic State organization must be “destroyed,” proclaimed U.S. head of state Barack Obama at the NATO summit last Friday [Sept. 5]. And his peers in the Atlantic Alliance are echoing him, particularly French President François Hollande – who has fallen to an abysmal level of popularity unprecedented in France and finds the current global disorder a welcome diversion, as it helps him forget his incapacity to restore an economy adrift and French hope of a better tomorrow. Sending the army into Mali, in Central Africa, or even into Iraq, is easier than finding solutions to the problems plaguing his country.

 

At last weekend’s NATO summit, the tone was unmistakably hawkish, whether about Ukraine, on which the NATO secretary general, Denmark’s Anders Fogh Rasmussen, flew into a vitriolic diatribe against Russia, or in relation to the emergence of the “Islamic State,” which ransacks everything in its path. On Ukraine, the aggressive comments of Mr. Rasmussen, which his peers have not sought to clarify, were tantamount to a declaration of war. Indeed, the only management of the Ukrainian or jihadist crises boiled down to threats of “strikes” for some, or “sanctions” for others.

 

The “28” members of the Alliance seemed bloodthirsty, with no interest in understanding the genesis of these events or to provide alternatives to the use of force. These “top flight” politicians should know that no military solution lasts forever. So, there is more concern about the effects of the rise of jihadism than about its causes.

At the NATO summit, rather than trying to understand how this chain of events is possible, there was alarm over the blowback that would result from the return of some 2,000 European jihadists participating in the bloodbath in Iraq and Syria. Whilst the killing remains far from the West, the massacres of Iraqis, Syrians, Kurds, Christians and others, Yazidis or Turkmens are the least of their concerns. This is shameless self-centeredness when we know that said “Islamic State” was created primarily by major powers anxious to maintain low and medium intensity conflicts in these regions. These conflicts, for a long time, have eaten into the industrial and scientific development of these countries, thereby eliminating them as potential military competitors.

 

During the Gulf wars in the 1990s, the United States was particularly avid at striking universities, research centers, Iraqi university hospitals and all sites that could be used for research of any kind. This is how an American general translated it: “We will set Iraq back a hundred years.” This is what was done. The development of this country has been at a standstill for 30 years.

 

Certainly, the “Islamic State” has reached unprecedented and likely unexpected proportions never achieved by the nebulous “al-Qaeda” – a creation of the American FBI and CIA – and has gone well beyond the control of its Western mentors, using Qatar and Saudi Arabia as intermediaries. The truth will come out and the world will know that the United States and the more proactive countries of the European Union are no strangers to the advent of cross-border terrorism – through the use and manipulation of thugs and fanatics who know nothing about Islam, and to the disorder that now threatens world security.

The West and the Gulf monarchies have supported the rebellion against the Syrian government – a rebellion fought with jihadist groups in the ranks, one of which has transformed into the “Islamic State.” It is also the West that supported the fascist coup, with neo-Nazi tendencies, in Ukraine – a procession of its military, political and intelligence leaders have made the trip to Kiev – with the result of the possible, if not probable, split with eastern Ukraine. The West doesn’t admit its “errors” or its bad times, whether in Ukraine or the Middle East. So in Iraq, the West is pushing to arm Iraqi Kurdish militias, when what is needed is the strengthening of the official, under-equipped Iraqi army.

 

Baghdad has neither the means, nor the capability, to oppose this fait accompli, when the Americans and Europeans put the militias of an autonomous province before the national army on which the state depends. This is just one of those details that shows the shocking falsity and duplicity of said Westerners, whose only interest is maintaining their hegemony over the world, even if the price is global devastation.
