With what is described as the sudden fall of Bashar al-Assad’s regime in Syria, Israel unleashed hundreds of air strikes on its neighbor. America joined the bombing frenzy, saying she wanted to destroy ISIS forces that are among different groups involved in a long, bloody civil war.
Fourteen years of conflict have killed more than 350,000 Syrians, displaced millions and Syrian refugees have sought safe places in the world. Syrians want a new day and want to build their own future.
The truth is Israel, the United States and the UK have no desire or plan for Syrians to exercise self-determination. They envision remaking the Middle East and setting the stage for the destruction of Iran.
The U.S. and other Western nations are moving quickly to try to recast the rebel leader of the successful offensive, Abu Mohammed al-Golani of Hayat Tahir al-Sham (HTS), who was once declared a terrorist. Media reports say he wants a reproachment with the West and has promised a more “liberal” Syria where the rights of minorities, women and citizens will be respected.
Will he ever get the chance to reunite a fractured country or will Israeli and American meddling produce another divided, failed state and more Syrian suffering?
Israel nor America desire peace and development in Syria.
The “Israeli government does not seem comfortable … . The new political power in Damascus is likely to exhibit greater solidarity with the Palestinians.
According to an Al Jazeera report, “Jake Sullivan has made clear that the U.S. is not going to condemn or even criticize Israel’s foray into occupied territory in Syria. He has said it is logical and claims it is temporary.” Mr. Sullivan is U.S. National Security Advisor.
A divided Syria, already reduced to rubble, is a weak Syria. That suits Western interests very well. America, Israel, Turkey, and Gulf states have been involved in Syria, where different players have backed different factions who control different parts of the country.
Israel has moved military forces into Syria in the name of preserving her security. Or is Israel expanding its occupation with an aim to establish what is called “Greater Israel?”
Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Zionists have been vocal about remaking the Middle East to their liking. He has watched the slaughter of nearly 50,000 Palestinians in Gaza in just over a year. Many Israelis have gleefully spoken of taking the enclave outright as they exterminate Palestinians.
Mr. Netanyahu has watched as Israeli bombs, paid for and provided by the U.S., have decimated much of Lebanon. Thousands have been killed and more than 1.2 million people are displaced. Israeli Defense Forces have moved into Lebanon taking territory.
Since Israel has been allowed to move unchecked, is there reason to expect the settler state will simply stop?
The Honorable Minister Louis Farrakhan, some 11 years ago, spoke of America’s war on Islam. He cited a retired U.S. general’s disclosure of plans by neo-conservatives to attack seven Muslim states, Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and Iran, over five years.
“On Monday, August 26, 2013, the U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry held a press briefing in which he announced the Obama Administration’s conclusion and determination that ‘the Syrian government used chemical weapons on innocent people,’”
The Minister observed in a special message, “America’s Errant Foreign Policy,” delivered in August 2013 as Part 34 of his 58-week lecture series “The Time and What Must Be Done.”
“What would Syria have to gain by using chemical weapons to cause America to intervene militarily in her country as she is experiencing this terrible civil war? I think it is America and Europe that are tired of the civil war going on so long without definitive results in the favor of the West and Israel,” the Minister said in 2013.
“America did not want Iran to be the victor in that war! America said ‘a victory for Iran’ was totally unacceptable,” he explained. Israel was not a “dispassionate observer” having provided America with intelligence claiming a Syrian chemical weapons attack.
“The government of America and its leadership are taking America and the world on a very dangerous course,” Minister Farrakhan warned.
Long before the Sept. 11, 2011, attack on the World Trade Center, schemes to implement regime change among Muslim nations were hatched. “Just days after 9/11, General Clark said he was shown a Pentagon memo that describes how they planned ‘to take out seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and then Iran—five years and seven countries.’
This was being planned to ensure that the control of the riches of that area would always be available to America and her allies,” Minister Farrakhan explained.
This path is not a good path for the United States.
“America: Even though you plan well, there is another Planner over and above your plans—that is The Best of Planners. And your plans, under His Plan, is causing you to fulfill the scripture that says ‘you will lay a trap and get caught in it, and you will dig a ditch for others, but you will fall in it yourself,’” warned the Minister, quoting scripture.
His words and his warnings have been constant and consistent. We are watching the war of Armageddon unfold before our eyes.
