Syria Presidential Vote underway despite Militancy. … by Jim W. Dean, … with PressTV, Tehran - First published June 3, 2014 - The rebels have already been voting, early and often…with hot steel ballots. Shelling has continued on the outside of the city all day, mostly the morning wakeup call kind to remind people that they are still there, and then again at twilight… commonly done in past wars. We have the window open in the business office as the Dama Rose Hotel so we can hear the man made thunder. I am with a group of ten Western observers who have come to not only to watch the Syrian people vote , but to record their feelings about the Western powers who are inflicting such wanton destruction upon the with no mercy.

They are geared up here of a long haul, and the country is drawn together into a tight fist. For some reason they seem to object to one of the last sectarian countries in the Mideast, one that has basically free medical care, free cancer drugs… something Americans don’t have and probably never will.

Anderson Cooper and CNN have been caught staging fake news about Syria to justify military intervention. The primary “witness” that the mainstream media is using as a source in Syria has been caught staging fake news segments. Recent video evidence proves that “Syria Danny”, the supposed activist who has been begging for military intervention on CNN, is really just a paid actor and a liar. While Assad is definitely a tyrant like any head of state, a US invasion of the country is a worst case scenario for the people living there.

By pointing out that the mainstream media is orchestrating their entire coverage of this incident, we are not denying that there is a tremendous amount of death and violence in Syria right now. However, we are showing that the mainstream media version of events is scripted and staged propaganda. “Syria Danny” has also appeared on many other news programs, and every single time his story on specific events has changed. Sounds horrible huh? Source Terrorist Like this: For-the-syrians-sakes-and-for-our-own-we-must-not-intervene-8784220. What rationalisations, what self-justifications must now be going through the mind of the Syrian dictator’s British-born-and-raised wife Asma al-Assad – notoriously described as a “rose in the desert” by Vogue magazine months before Syria’s uprising began? Perhaps she has other concerns: recent photos uploaded by the regime’s Instagram account reveal her wearing a Jawbone UP, an upmarket activity tracker that monitors meals, sleep and exercise.

It is nearly two and a half years since her husband’s regime plunged Syria into an unspeakably brutal civil war by firing on what began as a secular movement for democracy: if Israel’s cruelty was “barbaric” and “horrific”, what words are left to describe her husband’s crimes? More than 100,000 dead, millions displaced, and now evidence pointing towards the firing of chemical weapon-laden missiles that suffocated families in their beds. But Western intervention would surely be disastrous. There are now two powerful al-Qa’ida groupings operating. Robert Fisk: We’re in this together… the US, Britain and al-Qa’ida will fight on same side - Comment - Voices. Quite an alliance! Was it not the Three Musketeers who shouted “All for one and one for all” each time they sought combat? This really should be the new battle cry if – or when – the statesmen of the Western world go to war against Bashar al-Assad.

The men who destroyed so many thousands on 9/11 will then be fighting alongside the very nation whose innocents they so cruelly murdered almost exactly 12 years ago. Quite an achievement for Obama, Cameron, Hollande and the rest of the miniature warlords. This, of course, will not be trumpeted by the Pentagon or the White House – nor, I suppose, by al-Qa’ida – though they are both trying to destroy Bashar. Maybe the Americans should ask al-Qa’ida for intelligence help – after all, this is the group with “boots on the ground”, something the Americans have no interest in doing. There will be some ironies, of course. In Iraq, we went to war on the basis of lies originally uttered by fakers and conmen. Say Hello to World War III, Obama Just Signed another Executive Order. President Barack Hussein Obama AKA Barry Soetoro AKA Barry the Rat, the south side Chicago back alley socialist insurgent pimp, just signed another Executive Order. You know, President Obama, who isn’t a Zionist puppet, who will not follow orders from Tel Aviv, who doesn’t really like those Jews all that much anyways.

Say hello to the Executive Order from the President regarding Authorizing the Implementation of Certain Sanctions Set Forth in the Iran Threat Reduction and Syria Human Rights Act of 2012 and Additional Sanctions with respect to Iran New sanctions fall under Iran Threat Reduction Act of 2012New sanctions close loopholes on the existing sanctions against IranAdds penalties for those companies who aid Iran’s business sectors.Punishes parent companies of subsidiaries that violate sanctions.

So, in other words, the Israeli Zionists have ordered that Iran be cut off from the world and the bank accounts of anyone who violates this dictate seized. Does it make sense? Report: CIA aids in funneling arms to Syrian rebels. • A daily summary of global reports on security issues. (Editor's note: The original headline on this story has been changed to more accurately reflect the CIA's role.)

The Syrian conflict is becoming more intractable as rebels, bolstered by weapons from Turkey, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia, are turning into a more effective adversary against President Bashar al-Assad's regime. According to a report today by The New York Times, the CIA is helping to funnel the arms to rebel groups, vetting potential recipients to avoid arming Al Qaeda-affiliated groups. The weapons include automatic rifles, rocket-propelled grenades, ammunition, and some antitank weapons, according to the report, which cited unnamed American officials and Arab intelligence officials.

Meanwhile, Russia has been accused of arming Syria, heightening concerns that the conflict could become a proxy war with each side armed by outside powers. Maj.

Testimony from victims strongly suggests it was the rebels, not the Syrian government, that used Sarin nerve gas during a recent incident in the revolution-wracked nation, a senior U.N. diplomat said Monday.

Carla del Ponte, a member of the U.N. Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria, told Swiss TV there were “strong, concrete suspicions but not yet incontrovertible proof,” that rebels seeking to oust Syrian strongman Bashar al-Assad had used the nerve agent. But she said her panel had not yet seen any evidence of Syrian government forces using chemical weapons, according to the BBC, but she added that more investigation was needed. Damascus has recently facing growing Western accusations that its forces used such weapons, which President Obama has described as crossing a red line. But Ms. del Ponte’s remarks may serve to shift the focus of international concern. SEE ALSO: Syria to Secretary of State John Kerry: You’re lying She gave no further details, the BBC said.

“From numerous interviews with doctors, Ghouta residents, rebel fighters and their families….many believe that certain rebels received chemical weapons via the Saudi intelligence chief, Prince Bandar bin Sultan, and were responsible for carrying out the (deadly) gas attack,” he writes in the article. The rebels noted it was a result of an accident caused by rebels mishandling chemical weapons provided to them. “My son came to me two weeks ago asking what I thought the weapons were that he had been asked to carry,” said Abu Abdel-Moneim, the father of a rebel fighting to unseat Assad, who lives in Ghouta. As Gavlak reports, Abdel-Moneim said his son and 12 other rebels died in a weapons storage tunnel. The father stated the weapons were provided to rebel forces by a Saudi militant, known as Abu Ayesha, describing them as having a “tube-like structure” while others were like a “huge gas bottle.”

Ghouta, Syria — As the machinery for a U.S. -led military intervention in Syria gathers pace following last week’s chemical weapons attack, the U.S. and its allies may be targeting the wrong culprit. Abdel-Moneim said his son and the others died during the chemical weapons attack. "Doctors" Behind Syrian Chemical Weapons Claims are Aiding Terrorists. August 25, 2013 - (Tony Cartalucci) The "evidence" upon which the West is propping up its narrative of the Syrian government using chemical weapons against large numbers of civilians hinges so far entirely on claims made by "Doctors Without Borders. " In the New York Times article, "Signs of Chemical Attack Detailed by Aid Group," it is reported: An international aid group said Saturday that medical centers it supported near the site of a suspected chemical weapons attack near Damascus received more than 3,000 patients showing symptoms consistent with exposure to toxic nerve agents on the morning of the reported attack.

Of those, 355 died, said the group, Doctors Without Borders. The statement is the first issued by an international organization working in Syria about the attack on Wednesday in the suburbs northeast of Damascus, the capital. While it is often described by the Western media as "independent," nothing could be further from the truth.

Will This Photo Prevent the Military Aggression Against Syria ? BBC whitewashes Syria 'heart-eating cannibal' to justify arming al-Qaeda. Foreign-backed militants clash with Syrian Army forces in the northern city of Aleppo. (File photo) It can be understandable that the mainstream Western media, being a tool in the hands of the warmongering elite, continues to portray the Syrian government as the main perpetrator in the conflict. But what seems shocking yet obnoxiously shameful is the BBC with complete lack of integrity sinking down to the level of justifying cannibalism; and all of this in an attempt to shift the public opinion towards backing their governments in arming al-Qaeda in Syria.

As the fear of a strike on Syria looms, the international community is becoming more and more concerned about the USA siding with al-Qaeda in the war against Assad. The USA also vows to continue arming the rebels regardless of the war. The public opinion in the West is largely against the war simply for the reason that the rebels are no good guys. The rebels have been reported to have committed grave crimes in Syria. The article reads:

A report released on Monday contains an email exchange between two senior officials at British-based contractor Britam Defence where a scheme 'approved by Washington' is outlined explaining that Qatar would fund rebel forces in Syria to use chemical weapons.

Barack Obama made it clear to Syrian president Bashar al-Assad last month that the U.S. would not tolerate Syria using chemical weapons against its own people.

March 9, 2013 (LD) - The primary reason, we are told, that the West must immediately begin wider operations to support the so-called Syrian rebels is to head off extremists - namely Al Qaeda, from overrunning Syria.

This narrative has been sold for nearly a year now as it has become evidently clear that all major offensives in Syria against the Syrian people and their government have been led by Al Qaeda terrorist fronts, including most notoriously, Jabhat al-Nusra. It turns out, however, according the London Telegraph, that the US and Britain have already been arming terrorists operating in Syria for some time, including a massive airlift of 3,000 tons of weapons, sent across Syria's borders with Jordan and NATO-member Turkey. In the Telegraph's article titled, "US and Europe in 'major airlift of arms to Syrian rebels through Zagreb'," it is reported: Threatwatch: Syrian refugee flood brings many dangers - health - 05 September 2013.

" That is what António Guterres, the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, this week called the 6 million Syrian refugees – a quarter of the country's people – uprooted from their homes. This may be the biggest impact of the Syrian civil war, says Anthony Cordesman of the Center for Strategic and International Studies in Washington DC.

The use of chemical weapons on civilians in the Syrian conflict was a crime against humanity. As such it should be the subject of a real criminal investigation, and those responsible should be brought to justice.

However, if the U.S. and NATO have their way that's not going to happen. In their book a simple accusation is as good as a conviction and therefore there's no point providing any real evidence. Let's just skip right to missile strikes shall we? This really isn't surprising to anyone who's been paying attention though. The United States has had Syria and Iran in their cross hairs for a long time. There are three primary psychological techniques that the powers that be in any given era use to build up the public support needed to take a country to war: 1Create the impression that the aggressor is actually acting in self defense or in defense of a helpless nation. 3De-humanize the enemy.
