Palestine Burns While Parisians Mourn
by Stephen Lendman
Israel murders, brutalizes, mass imprisons and tortures Palestinians daily - ignored by Western and Israeli media scoundrels, disgracefully blaming victims for state-sponsored high crimes, amounting to slow-motion genocide against an entire population.
Parisians justifiably mourn their dead, victims of likely false flag terrorism. Worldwide sympathy supports their family members and an aggrieved nation.
Palestinians suffer isolated on their own. The world community ignores their horrific ordeal. Jewish rights alone matter. Since October 1, Israel killed 86 Palestinians, the vast majority extrajudicially executed in cold blood. Clear evidence exposed the myth of knife-wielding terrorists. Over 8,000 Palestinians were injured, scores arrested daily, children treated as brutally as adults, women the same as men.
Profile of a False Flag
by Stephen Lendman
Evidence known so far strongly indicates false flag responsibility for Friday’s Paris attacks. They’re usually identifiable the way fingerprints ID people.
They’re strategically timed, most often for what’s planned to follow. Post-9/11 horrors are well documented. America declared still ongoing war on humanity.
The 9/11 incident provided a treasure trove of giveaways showing what happened was other than the official narrative. The most obvious was how could a handful of terrorists outwit America’s 16 intelligence agencies, including sophisticated NSA eavesdropping on anyone or anything suspicious back then?
No evidence implicated Al Qaeda. Nothing to this day - yet claims persist. Without verifiable hard facts, they’re specious.
U.S. Yields to Russia’s Insistence Upon Democracy in Syria
Eric Zuesse
The Syrian peace talks in Vienna, over the weekend, produced an agreement between all parties, and it constitutes a major defeat for the United States, because the result is entirely in accord with the longstanding Russian position, which the U.S. government has consistently opposed, that only the Syrian people should have the right to determine who will, and who won’t, be able to run in Syrian elections.
The AP headlined on Sunday, November 15th, “Syrian Legislator Praises Aspects of Plan to End War,” and quoted Syrian parliamentarian Omar Ossi, head of the parliament’s reconciliation committee, as telling the AP that “the plan has many points that ‘run in harmony’ with Assad’s position.” What Ossi objected to was that some nations are “betting on the issue of toppling the Syrian regime by military force,” instead of by allowing democracy to determine the result.
Syria Not Invited to Talks on Resolving Endless War
by Stephen Lendman
On November 14, around 20 nations will meet in Vienna for more talks on resolving the long-running Syrian conflict - launched by Obama, intending to continue it until Assad is replaced by a US-controlled puppet.
Late October talks accomplished nothing. Participants agreed to disagree. Expect nothing more significant this time. Syria wasn’t invited to either session, left out of discussing its own status and future.
How can peace be achieved without its involvement? UN special envoy for Syria Staffan de Mistura ignored the affront, saying “(m)y job is to make sure that large countries such as Russia, Saudi Arabia and Iran sit around the table and set out a political plan.” It’s worthless without Syrian involvement, showing no US intent to resolve things responsibly. On Wednesday, Iranian Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs, Hossein Amir-Abdollahian, suggested Tehran won’t participate in Saturday talks. Iranian Tasnim News Agency then quoted him saying “Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif will definitely not attend the next round of Vienna talks on Syria.”
US Warplanes Reportedly Bombing ISIS Held Syrian Oil Fields
by Stephen Lendman
They provide a key source of ISIS income, millions of dollars through an illegal pipeline to Turkey where it’s sold, according to Turkish http://sputniknews.com/world/20151031/1029376526/turkey-islamic-state-pipelines.html" target="_blank">Sputnik News reported.
America’s bombing campaign avoided striking ISIS-held Syrian oil fields so far. “This fact really makes (me) wonder, given that one of the steps of Obama's plan to fight ISIL was the destruction of sources of the Islamic State's income," Dursunoglu noted. Drone and satellite spotted tanker trucks carrying ISIS oil are allowed to cross into Turkey freely. Did US tactics change? If so, why?
According to The New York Times, US warplanes are attacking “oil fields that the Islamic State controls in eastern Syria…” Claiming it’s to “disrupt one of the terrorist group’s main sources of revenue,” according to unnamed US officials is rubbish.
Russia Reacts to Likely Paris False Flag
by Stephen Lendman
Russia continues doing more to confront the scourge of terrorism than any other nation. America is its main proliferator - state terrorism, the worst kind, using ISIS and other takfiri terrorists to help advance its imperium.
US officials responded duplicitously to Friday’s Paris incident, their comments ignoring America’s war OF terror on humanity.
Russian officials reacted responsibly. Musovites laid flowers in front of France’s embassy in solidarity with Parisians. Unlike Obama, Vladimir Putin always says what he means and means what he says.
Obama and Netanyahu Rant Post-Paris Attacks
by Stephen Lendman
Obama and Netanyahu partner in each other’s high crimes, proliferating state terror, blaming victims for their ruthlessness.
Following a meeting with Turkey’s Recep Tayyip Erdogan at the G-20 summit, Obama vowed to “redouble” America’s war on ISIS in Iraq and Syria.
Killing innocent people in Paris is an attack “on the civilized world,” he blustered - ignoring a near-certain false flag, Washington’s dirty hands likely involved, complicit with France and perhaps Israel, as well as US support for the terrorist scourge he claims to oppose.
Expect escalated war on humanity ahead, maybe doubling down on today’s horrors. What nation does Obama plan to attack next? Is US ground invasion of Syria coming? Will America risk direct confrontation with Russia and/or China?
Blowback or False Flag in Paris?
by Stephen Lendman
It’s too soon to know for sure. Given French complicity with ongoing US state terror throughout the Middle East, North Africa and elsewhere, odds strongly favor the latter.
Multiple likely well-planned Friday night attacks in Paris had a disturbing aroma to them - including France’s knee-jerk police state reaction. More on this below. Here’s what happened.
At least seven apparently well-coordinated attacks occurred, gunmen with automatic weapons and suicide belts killing over 150 victims. Many others were injured. Stade de France stadium was struck during a football (soccer) match between France and Germany.
So was the Bataclan theater during a concert, restaurants full of patrons, a cinema, and pedestrians on Bichat Street, the Avenue de la Republique and Boulevard Beaumarchais.
Putin at the G-20, Lavrov in Vienna
by Stephen Lendman
During an informal meeting among BRICS countries at the G-20 summit in Antalya, Turkey, Putin said “(w)e all understand perfectly well that coping with the terrorist threat and helping millions of people who have lost their homes, is possible only by combining the efforts of the entire world community” united against a common scourge.
“As for the threat of terrorism, we have all seen the horror that took place in Paris. We sympathize with the people affected. We always stand for joining efforts to effectively deal with the terrorist threat.”
Putin and Obama met for a short 20-minute discussion on the sidelines of the summit. No details were revealed on what they said. Earlier they exchanged comments during an official photo-op.
US Rejects Russia’s Syrian Peace Proposal
by Stephen Lendman
Throughout four-and-a-half years of conflict, Russia has gone all-out to resolve it diplomatically - in stark contrast to Washington, wanting endless war continued, no matter the devastating human toll.
Obama bears full responsibility for horrific carnage and mass displacement, using ISIS and other takfiri terrorists, imported foot soldiers from scores of countries, supplemented since September 2014 by US air attacks on Syrian infrastructure and other government targets, aiming to replace Assad with a Western-controlled puppet, eliminate an Israeli rival and isolate Iran.
Washington rejected earlier Russian peace proposals, again its latest effort, deceptively claiming so-called opposition figures dismissed it. It’s unclear who they are or if a legitimate non-terrorist opposition exists.
A Russian text published by Reuters is fair and sensible - an eight-point proposal titled “Approach to the Settlement of the Syrian Crisis” - prepared ahead of more international talks in Vienna on Syria this week.
