THE REAL ASSAD



Bashar al Assad is a huge fan of the Electric Light Orchestra.

The New Lion of Damascus is book about Bashar al Assad by American academic David Lesch.

Lesch is sympathetic to Assad.

Lesch states that Bashar impresses people with his "politeness, his humility and his simplicity"

"He played soccer with neighbourhood children, ping-pong with his father, and his friends’ mothers came home to chat and cook meals with his mother Anisa."



Lesch sees Bashar al-Asad as a “combination of computer nerd, ophthalmologist, devoted family man, westernized pop-culturist, outgoing and caring friend, humble and reluctant leader..."

Patrick Seale’s Asad: The Struggle for the Middle East is also sympathetic towards Bashar.

Asma, Bashar's wife, grew up in London, and worked as a banker at JP Morgan.

Her father is a Sunni Muslim.

Asma has immersed herself in social work.


Hafed al Assad (right) the father of Bashar. 

But what about Bashar's father?

From 1976 to 1982, Islamists carried out a terrorist campaign against the secular 'reformist' government of Syria.

The Muslim Brotherhood's violence included bomb attacks and the targeting of government officials.

In 1982, in Hama, Islamists attacked people "while sleeping in their homes and killed whomever they could kill of women and children, mutilating the bodies of the martyrs in the streets, driven, like mad dogs, by their black hatred." 

The security forces then "rose to confront these crimes." 

It should be noted that the Muslim Brotherhood has been described as being a tool of the CIA and MI6.

And what of Bashar?

According to the Financial Times's Roula Khalaf, Bashar "built relationships with businessmen eager for change to the socialist economy, and with political activists hungry for a whiff of freedom of expression. 

"Bashar al-Assad became a vociferous critic of bureaucratic corruption and those he recommended were placed in key positions in government."

According to the Financial Times's Roula Khalaf, when Bashar became president "political prisoners were released and discussion forums thrived" in what became known as the Damascus Spring.

"Technocrats were brought into the government, as were European advisors to help reform the administration."


Israel sees Syria as a supporter of the Palestinians and as an opponent of Israel's plans for a Greater Israel.

Bashar's problem is that the USA decided, well before 9 11, that it was going to bring about regime change in several countries, including Syria.

General Wesley Clark said the aim of this plot (to destroy the governments in Syria, Libya etc) was this: "They wanted us to destabilize the Middle East, turn it upside down, make it under our control."

The CIA and its friends presumably have a number of assets in Syria, including people within the security forces.

The CIA and its friends began their attack in 2010.

On March 15 2010, the tribes in Dera’a, the southern province, sparked the Syrian revolution with mass protests.

SHABIHA

Who are the Shabiha?

Originally they were said to be drugs gangsters.

President Assad is reportedly opposed to the Shabiha.

"In the 1990s... Mr Assad - with the approval of his father Hafez, the then president - tried to curb its activities."

Basil al-Assad, the current president’s brother, led a campaign against the Shabiha in the early 1990s.

Some of the Shabiha are Sunnis opposed to President Assad.

"Analysts say shabbiha-style militias made up of the Sunni Muslims who represent the majority of the population have also started to emerge in regions like the province of Homs, where Houla is located."

1. "Last week we were told by the media (including the FT) and Western Governments, that it was artillery fire from tanks and Syrian soldier to blame for the Houla massacre. They cried blue murder.

"The UN investigation then contradicted this.

"Now, western Governments and their media (propaganda) tell us it is the shabbiha, again without proof but with the same absolute certainty."

2. "One Ft 'reporter' is 'reporting' from Abu dhabi and the other is based in Beirut? Why not just leave them in London? Wouldn't it be much easier and cheaper? 

"They're quoting 'analysts' in the UK capital anyway.

"As for the story about pro-government militia dressed in army uniforms? Well that's exactly what 'opposition' thugs would do, wouldn't they? Oh they put on white sports shoes? Wow, that's highly convincing!"

CIA FELL OUT WITH SYRIA OVER HEROIN?

Bush and Assad (senior)

Did the USA fall out with Assad over heroin?

Syria's Basil Assad died in a car crash in 1994.

Reportedly Basil was killed because of his role in suppressing the Syrian-Lebanese drug trade in the Bekaa Valley. (Website)

'CIA asset' Monzer al Kassar at home

1. In the 1980's, Syria reportedly had links to 'the CIA's trade in arms and heroin'.

According to "The Last Circle" , by Cherie Seymour - Chapter 8:

Syria's Monzer Al Kassar, a friend of the Assad family, reportedly worked with the USA's Colonel Oliver North.

Reportedly, Al Kassar sold heroin to the USA and some of the profits were used by North to buy arms for the fascist Nicaraguan Contras.

The US Tower Commission probe into Irangate revealed that Al Kassar had been paid $1.2 million by Oliver North's coconspirator General Richard Secord to move weapons from Israel to the Contras.

In her book "October Surprise," former Reagan White House aide Barbara Honegger alleged that Al Kassar's heroin smuggling network in Italy was used to send NATO arms to Iran with the help of Italian intelligence officials linked to the Masonic lodge, P2.

Al Kassar was reported to hold large tracts of land in Lebanon's Bekaa Valley.

2. In 1988, the CIA allegedly brought down PanAm 103 over Lockerbie.

The CIA reportedly wanted to destroy Major Charles McKee and his team who had gathered evidence of CIA drug smuggling and who were flying to the USA to act as whistleblowers.

According to "The Last Circle" , by Cherie Seymour - Chapter 8:

Lester Coleman, a Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) officer worked with the secret unit, Middle East Collection 10 (MC10) in Cyprus.

Two senior MC10 members, Mathew Kevin Gannon and Major Charles Dennis McKee, were on PanAm flight 103 when it exploded; they had just returned from a mission in Beirut.

Coleman explained that the Drugs Enforcement Administration (DEA), with the narcotics squad of the Cypriot national police, the German BKA police and British customs, ran an operation through Cyprus and airports in Europe, including Frankfurt.

The operation involved delivering heroin from the Bekaa Valley in Lebanon to the United States; the operation was codenamed "Khourah." Coleman maintained that Pan Am Flight 103 was being used by the DEA.



3. Reportedly, Lockerbie was about heroin.

According to "The Last Circle" , by Cherie Seymour - Chapter 8:

Pan Am hired the private investigative firm of Interfor to look into the bombing.

Interfor maintained that PanAm 103 was part of a heroin smuggling route run by a drug trafficking ring protected by the CIA.

Interfor claimed the ring was overseen by Monzer Al Kassar.

The CIA and DEA had apparently both instructed Germany's internal intelligence agency, the BKA, to allow certain suitcases to pass uninspected onto US bound flights at the Frankfort airport, where Flight 103 originated.

A suitcase which was supposed to be full of the usual heroin was covertly substituted with a suitcase full of explosives.


4. Reportedly, the CIA interfered with the evidence in the Lockerbie case.

According to David Guyatt (LOCKERBIE - THE SYRIAN CONNECTION - Deep Black Lies):

Within hours of Pan Am 103 exploding over the small Scottish village, CIA agents were swarming over the wreckage...

Aboard the downed plane was a secret, five-man Defence Intelligence Agency 'team' headed by Major Charles 'Tiny' McKee.

A suitcase belonging to McKee was recovered and emptied before being returned to the site to be 'found' again.

Inside had been a large quantity of Heroin, some 'sensitive' documents, plus a large quantity of cash and travellers cheques.

These items were 'purged' from official records.

Incredibly, an unidentified body was also removed from the crash site.

No official explanation has been given for these extraordinary examples of evidence tampering.


5. In 1989, the drug smuggling continued.

In 1989, CNN aired a report that included clandestine video pictures of members of the Colombian drug cartel meeting with Syrian drug lords in Larnaca, Cyprus.

The Syrian identified in the video tapes was Raiss Assad the nephew of Syrian president, Hafaz Assad. (DEA: Syria a Major Player in Drug Trade)


6. In 1990, Syria gained its reward.

From "The Last Circle" , by Cherie Seymour aka Carol Marshall - Chapter 8, we learn:

Syria was part of George Bush's coalition which toppled Saddam.

In 1990, the USA allowed a government backed by Syria to take power in Lebanon.

Under the agreement with the USA, Syria kept control of Lebanon's Bekaa Valley famous for its production of heroin and other drugs.

7. The newspaper Scotland on Sunday reported 16/9/ 2001 that Osama bin Laden made his fortune in part by working with Jewish-Russian mafia operations in Qatar and Cyprus. (Cached)

From an article entitled Robert Gates, Lockerbie, October Surprise, Iran-Contra, we learn of the following allegation:

Reportedly, al Kassar would have known about Mohamed Atta 'flying Lebanese heroin into Florida for Porter Goss's 911 operation'.

Reportedly, tied to Porter Goss' 911 training operation in Florida were the Muslim Brotherhood, and agents of the intelligence agencies of Saudi Arabia, Germany, Syria and Pakistan.


The Lockerbie Case: Megrahi says in a new book that he was framed

From the Scottish edition of The Sunday Times:

"The Libyan convicted of the Lockerbie bombing claims he will produce evidence that will prove he was framed for Britain's worst terrorist atrocity.

"In a forthcoming book ... Megrahi alleges that British and American authorities knew that a crucial piece of evidence linking Libya to the downing of Pan Am 103 was planted.

"Documents obtained by his defence team are said to reveal that a fragment of electronic timer - said to be part of the bomb - was subjected to forensic testing before Megrahi's trial in 2000.

"The Libyan claims that the tests failed to detect explosive residues on the fragment but that this information was not revealed at his trial.

"Sources close to Megrahi believe evidence of such tests would severely undermine the safety of his conviction.

"At the Libyan's trial ... forensic scientists testified that the fragment was part of a circuit board used as a trigger for the bomb. They stated it had not been tested for explosive residues...

"This evidence ... helped to convict Megrahi...

"The Sunday Times has also seen unpublished British intelligence documents from 1989 revealing that the Scottish police were convinced that a barometric bomb - triggered by altitude, not an electronic timer - downed Pan Am 103.

"Megrahi has been working with a British journalist on a book, the publication of which is imminent.

"Sources close to the project said that in Megrahi: You Are My Jury, the Libyan reveals that forensic tests were conducted on the timer fragment.

"It suggests the fragment was not part of the Lockerbie bomb and adds weight to claims that it was 'introduced' later to bolster the case against Megrahi...

"The timer fragment became a key plank in the case against Megrahi...

"It was claimed that months after the December 21 bombing ... in 1988, a tiny piece of circuit board was found in a piece of clothing about 25 miles away from Lockerbie. The prosecution ... linked this fragment of circuit board, described as part of the bomb trigger, to Megrahi.

There may have been a fall out over heroin, but the recent Syrian Crisis is (in my opinion) based on a different set of criteria.

It is based on the Globalist strategy of creating an 'arc of tension', and, further, instability and weakness among North African and Middle Eastern countries.

The prize and objective is bigger than heroin smuggling.

It's partly to make the Mediterranean Sea a Globalist lake.

Syria is the last significant Mediterranean shoreline that is independent from the Western oriented Globalists. Algeria is semi-independent from the West, and, guess what, an "Arab Spring" gambit was abortively tried there, too, but it never got off the ground. Algeria's shoreline is much less strategic than Syria's.

But Zionist and Israeli objectives are definitely part of the motivation, too.

Zionists want to "exterminate" the Assad government (I have that on high authority -- personal knowledge -- "Exterminate" is a direct quote from a reliable source).

The word choice is surprising for its vivid & blunt viciousness, but not the general objective -- that is well known.

But more ominous is the strategy:

The Western press has been blaming the Assad government for mass slaughter, when in reality, the rebels/insurgents are the ones slaughtering innocents.

The Zionists think the 'Western Press Cover' is enough to fool the American People and other Western publics. My suspicion based on this source, is that Zionists will claim that Assad is bent on and engaged in committing Christian Genocide (some 10% of the Syrian population is Christian out of 22 million people overall).

Of course, it would be really the opposite, the rebels slaughtering Christians, with the rebels armed and trained by the West, Gulf Cooperation Council, and, apparently, Israel.

But with an impending Christian Genocide allegedly to be perpetrated by the Assad regime, that would tip the political balance in America for full-fledged military intervention to "stop the Christian Genocide" and allow the "extermination" of the Assad government.

Of course, this is all patently absurd, as the Christian minority stands either with their fellow minority Muslim Alawite sect Assad government or is against armed insurrection because they know what would happen if there was a full on drive to exterminate the Assad government by the Muslim Brotherhood and other radicalized Muslim factions.

Still, the Zionists are very confident of their ability to direct & control the American corporate press (with good reason as they own or control almost all of it), and are arrogant enough to think they can pull it off.

A "Christian Genocide" might also give the Zionists the cover they need to go into Syria to physically control at least parts of the country or all of it, if the violence got too bad (cynically with Israeli assistence).

Israel needs to commit genocide if they are to fulfill their objective of creating a Greater Israel from the banks of the Nile to the banks of the Euphrates.

A 'Class of Civilizations' might be the avenue Israel needs to exterminate any Arabs standing in the way of Greater Israel.

But first they need to get rid of the Christians in Syria.

What better way than to blame it on the Assad Government -- no matter that any objective observer would know that is false.

Conclusion: Zionists (of the Greater Israel mind-set) are sociopathically out of control (some would call it being insane).
