Forest of Dean Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 On 5/11/2018 at 07:33, Zetterlund said: I remember an old thread predicting what the next year's major news stories would be, not sure of the year but it was before anyone had heard of ISIS. I thought back then Syria would turn into another Iraq style invasion but they opted for funnelling weapons and money to jihadi proxies instead. It's the '7 countries in 5 years' PNAC plan playing out, although they didn't count on Putin saying "that's plenty" in Syria. Iran and Lebanon have still to be ticked off the list. That's just a recollection of Wesley Clark on how the declaration of war was internally announced to him. None of PNAC's documents say anything about 7 countries in 5 years. In fact the most famous one "Clean Break" explicitly talks about "containment" of the Syrian government and not regime change. That's in contrast to the call in the document for overthrow of Saddam. https://web.archive.org/web/20140125123844/http://www.iasps.org/strat1.htm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted May 15, 2018 Share Posted May 15, 2018 Israeli spokeswoman has said they can't put them all in jail.

They are not and never have been remotely interested in peace which they could have had over twenty years ago. They want victory and conquest and are basically conducting a state sponsored genocide lasting decades against a people they view as inferior. Israel are today's Nazis. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The party line from the Israelis is 'its Hamases fault' even the Whitehouse is repeating this and more disgracefully 'Labour Friends of Israel' as well. Israeli minister for propaganda, Mark Regrev, said hamas wanted to break into Jerusalem and kill Israelis, and that the IDf were "surgical with their strikes" and that they were killing terrorists! Hundreds of children shot , a baby killed by tear gas, but its Hamases fault' because they hide behind children. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
