THE TRUTH (as in documented history of the United State of America and Syria)
"Assad Must Go, Obama Says," Washington Post, August 18, 2011,
Four
years later the United States is still openly funding various
organizations committed to this purpose, most of which consists of armed
invaders of Syria, all the while the CIA has been reported to be
helping train various morphing groups, even before being reported to be
behind, along with Pentagon, ISIS, the latest such anti Syrian
government group to to have entered into Syria.[1] All this most
certainly constitutes crimes against peace and crimes against humanity
under Nuremberg Principles of International law.[2]
THE
DIPLOMATIC TRUTH (as spoken by Syria's Deputy Prime Minister and
Minister of Foreign Affairs Walid al Moualem during the UN General
Debate)
"Instead
of settling regional and international conflicts by peaceful means,
some known countries continue pursuing aggressive policies against
certain nations. Political hypocrisy increases to intervene in the
domestic affairs of States under the pretext of humanitarian
intervention or the responsibility to protect. And when those
aggressive policies did not prove beneficial for some countries, like
Syria, those well-known States reveal their true face and threaten with
blatant military consensus. Those same countries were supporting
terrorism in Syria."
Note the absence of naming the US, Britain, France, NATO, Turkey, Israel, Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Instead:
"some known countries continue pursuing aggressive policies against certain nations"
Since
President Obama passed on the decision of the ruling financial element
in the centers of power that have owned the US government since the
early 1930's,[2] a quarter of a million Syrians have met violent death
and millions made refugees.
QUESTION:
With so many of his country's people already dead and millions fleeing
to Europe, why was Syria's Foreign Minister unable to call a spade a
spade. Is it fear? Will it make US leaders less likely to bomb and
finish the job as they have threatened to do twice.
Syrian Foreign Minister Walid al Moualem:
"The
international community should act in accordance with the relevant
resolutions on counter-terrorism and take measures to compel the
countries financing, arming, training and providing safe havens and
passage for terrorists."
A
quarter million dead, and no call for prosecution of what the Foreign
Minister certainly described as crimes against peace and crimes against
humanity in the Nuremberg Principles of international law in the UN
Charter.
Also
embarrassing, was the Foreign Minister's use of the term "the
international community," long used as a euphemism for 'the Colonial
Powers.' These now 'neocolonial powers' still dictate to the rest of
the world, which is the real international community of more than two
hundred nations that make up the United Nations.
Syrian Foreign Minister continued:
"We
were the ones targeted by poisonous gases in Khan al-Assal, near
Aleppo," he said. Syria had requested an investigation mission and
demanded the inclusion in its mandate the ability to determine who had
used chemical weapons, but the United States, France and the United
Kingdom had limited the [UN] mission's functions to deciding whether
chemical weapons had been used. The mission had been awaited for more
than five months and then withdrawn before completing its work."
The
Syrian delegate pointing out what appears to be a UN Secretariat
insidious cooperation with the Syrian government's self-announced
enemies, might well have been expected to call for a criminal
investigation of that mission's impartiality, but none was called for
though Syria had been put in great danger, being falsely condemned in
corporate media and targeted for US air strikes while the UN mission's
stonewalled on releasing its findings.
Syrian Foreign Minister:
"There
remains the challenge that is facing all of us whether those who are
supplying terrorists with these types of weapon will abide by their
legal commitments, since terrorists who used poisonous gases have
received chemical agents from regional and Western countries that are
well known to us,"
Perhaps due to overly diplomatic language, there appears to be a confusion here.
'Those supplying terrorists with weapons' are prosecutable as criminals.
What legal commitment could be expected from investors in terrorism?
Moreover, what else but prosecution with lawsuits for indemnity could
possibly dissuade profit intended investment?
The
Foreign Minster clearly identified the US and it allies as having
committed a crime against humanity in Syria. But when there is
accusation of crime, usually and logically there follows a demand for
prosecution and justice for victims. But illogically, the Foreign
Minister's statement contains no such demand, and what he said next was
tantamount to a weak plea for Syria's attackers US and EU to 'refrain'
from breaking the law:
"The
United States and the European Union should refrain from imposing
immoral economic measures that contradicted the rules of international
law and the principles of free trade, and accordingly lift the embargo
on Cuba, as well as all unilateral coercive measures imposed on Syria,
Venezuela, Belarus, Iran and the Democratic People's Republic of Korea."
Sadly,
the Foreign Minister when speaking of support for the US-Iran 'nuclear
deal' inexplicably used words that seemed to put another US victim,
Iran, on a par with its deadly attacker:
"Syria
looked positively upon efforts by the United States and Iran to bridge
the gap of mistrust and hoped it would reflect constructively on the
stability of international relations."
The
Foreign Minister citing a "A gap of mistrust" seemed to minimize the
criminal sanctions and threats of nuclear attack of the US, as if the
constantly popularized 'mistrust' of Iran was something other than an
excuse for continuing US actions to dominate Iran as it has done since
its CIA with British secret services organized the violent conditions
for the bloody overthrow of Iran's democratic government in 1953.
And
in confirming his country's support for the right of the Palestinian
people to an independent State, Foreign Affairs Walid al Moualem took
the same lip service line as almost every other delegate that spoke at
this 2015 General Debate, while Iran, Syria's closest ally, calls for
one democratic state for all the inhabitants of Palestine, as did Yehudi
Menuhin, Albert Einstein and Martin Buber. They, as perhaps as much as
million orthodox Jews the world over today look back on a a typical
British Empire joint Anglo-American colonial crime against humanity that
used the survivors of a Holocaust and WW II made possible by enormous
American investment in, and joint venturing with, a prostate Nazi
Germany that built Hitler's Wehrmacht up to world number one military in
five years, all the while Hitler was making clear his intentions to
clean Europe of Jews and move against the Soviet Union.
An
incipient colonial powers created UN, with only one quarter of the
members of today's UN, was pressured into approving a phony and insane
never meant to be implemented UN partition plan to cut British occupied
Palestine into six disjointed pieces that would as expected torch the
Holy Land into permanent civil war that would allow for the right
Zionists funded by Wall Street to force a brave international socialist
Zionist majority to fight for their lives and at the same time be used
conquer out a military state to serve as a Western outpost in the oil
rich Arab lands.
By
calling for a two state solution of Palestine, in opposition to its
ally Iran's calling for a single democratic state, the Syrian foreign
minister seems to have Syria backing the continued division of Palestine
as most everyone else does while sleepwalking through reality. Your
archival research peoples historian has written about the same colonial
powers, who forced through passage of the pretentious United Nations
Partition Plan for Palestine intended to torch the British ruled and
occupied Holy Land, having, for sixty-seven years, kept up a
murderously deceitful pretense of trying to bring peace to Palestine and
the oil rich Middle East.[3]
There
has been for decades an atmosphere of appeasement in the UN General
Assembly's yearly General Debate. Years from now when the East resumes
it world leadership in political economy and the arts and sciences after
five centuries of savage European racist domination and the United
Nations is reconstituted and free of colonial powers control, people
will look back in astonishment to UN General Debates in which nations
bombed and invaded by the US and NATO merely complained at first and
then were for years silent, unable for fear of more punishing sanctions,
to logically call for justice under Nuremberg Principles international
law.
Devastated
Syria, allowing the US to get away with genocide again during the 2015
General Debate of the UN General Assembly, is just one example in a
field, which Martin Luther King described as 'atrocity wars and covert
violence on three continents since 1945 meant to maintain unjust
predatory investments that Americans refuse to give up the immense
profits therefrom bringing privileges and pleasures.[4]

If one googles 'US funds ISIS' among the first items that come up are:
People also ask"
When was Isis formed?
Under
its former name Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (Isis), it was
formed in April 2013, growing out of al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI). It has
since been disavowed by al-Qaeda, but has become one of the main
jihadist groups fighting government forces in Syria and Iraq.""
Which country created Al Qaeda?
In
this video Hilary Clinton admits that the US government created and
funded Al-Qaeda in order to fight the soviet union, and she even
considers that as a good thing.

Synopsis: Israel
is in bed with a US business elite that once heavily invested in
Hitler, was itself anti-Semitic in outlook, coldly indifferent and even
complicit during the Holocaust its investments made possible. A popular
quip in Yiddish goes, "with such friends, who needs enemies?" Arabs
saved Jews from Christian persecutions in 637, 1187, 1492. Now
Christians are persecuting Arabs. Needed! Jewish-Arab Semitic
solidarity.
