“The Zionist regime and its allies seek to create ethnic and religious discord among Muslim countries.”-Ramin Mehmanparast, Iranian Foreign Ministry Spokesman

“This action which has been done in line with the Zionists’ criminal plots seeks to increase religious intolerances.”-Seyed Abdelmalik Al-Houthi, Yemen’s Houthi Movement

Syrian military sources say they’ve shot down an IDF aircraft flying over Damascus.

Western media say Israel is trying to stop the latest Iranian made ballistic missiles from getting to Lebanon.

Iran calling for a united front against Israel, and Iranian and Yemeni officials are calling for vengeance against the U.S. backed al Qaeda insurgents who’ve destroyed centuries old Shia shrines throughout West Asia.

Iran has condemned Sunday’s airstrike against Syria, launched by Israel.  Iran is calling for a united front against Israel.

A massive explosion rocked the Syrian capital of Damascus.  Syrian media says an Israeli missile hit the Jamraya research center.  So far no comment from Israeli sources.  This would be the second airstrike by Israel in the past three days.

People living in Damascus describe what sounds like a bunker buster bomb exploding.

In Kandahar Province, five U.S. personnel were killed by an explosion. A U.S. captain confirmed the reports.  ISAF said only: “Five International Security Assistance Force service members died following an improvised explosive device attack in southern Afghanistan.”

In another report, two U.S. personnel were shot dead by an Afghan National Army soldier.  It was confirmed by an unnamed U.S. official.

In Herat Province, a teenaged girl has been shot an killed by U.S./NATO  personnel.  Local government officials said the U.S. led troops open fired on civilians in the street.

President Hamid Karzai made it clear that no Afghan government will accept the British empire created Durand Line, which separates Afghanistan and Pakistan.  The problem is that most of western Pakistan actually belongs to Afghanistan. The evil Red Coats arbitrarily drew the line while creating the new country of Pakistan.

90 Army National Guardsmen, from Maine U.S.A., were told their deployment to Afghanistan has been “off ramped”.  Local media speculated it was part of President Obama’s plan to reduce troop levels in Afghanistan.

Afghan interpreters working for British Red Coats, begging to be taken back to Merry Ol’ England because they now fear for their lives.  U.K. Prime Minister David Cameron had already stated that no interpreters will be allowed to move to the British Isles.  The puppet Afghan interpreters said Cameron signed their death warrant:  “When they leave us, we are the first target for these people. So I don’t know why they will not recognize our service or the sacrifices we have made.”-‘Abdul’ translator working for Red Coats in Afghanistan

After the U.S. Congress spent at least $93 billion U.S. tax dollars (not counting fiscal year 2013) on building up the puppet government of Afghanistan, the Special Investigator for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR), says the U.S. Department of Defense has not met its goals for pulling out in 2014.  SIGARs found numerous problems such as inadequate system for providing fuel to Afghan government forces, more than $230 million worth of aircraft repair parts that went missing on their way to Afghan government forces,  continued high rate of illiteracy among Afghan government forces despite $200 million being spent on literacy programs.

“Afghanistan will not be able to achieve security and stability if its people
generally distrust and dismiss the government as ineffectual and corrupt.
SIGAR has published 13 audits that looked at critical U.S. programs related
to rule of law, civil service development, provincial capacity, election support,
and corruption. This work revealed serious problems, including the
lack of an integrated U.S. anticorruption strategy. It has led SIGAR to conduct
a new audit of the State Department’s primary program to train justice
sector personnel and build the overall capacity of the Afghan judicial system.
SIGAR’s Office of Special Projects is also now reviewing the current
U.S. anticorruption strategy.” -SIGAR Quarterly Report to United States Congress, 30 April 2013

President Karzai demands President Obama deliver on his promise to close Gitmo (Guantanamo Bay prison).

Danish taxpayers have already given Afghanistan $630 million, now the government leaders of Afghanistan and Denmark have signed a long term military pact: “Denmark has been deeply engaged in Afghanistan for more than 11 years. So it is only natural that we now sign a strategic partnership agreement and thus seal a mutual desire on a long term cooperation. Denmark will remain engaged in Afghanistan even after 2014.”-Helle Thorning-Schmidt, Prime Minister of Denmark

In Nangarhar Province, a two hour battle raged along the Durand Line border with Afghanistan and Pakistan.  Pakistani media reports one Afghan border cop killed, two Pakistani soldiers wounded.  However, Afghan media say nine Pakistanis were killed, one Afghan border cop killed and three wounded.  It happened at the Gursal border gate.  Afghan government officials said the Pakistanis were caught trying to capture the newly built Afghan side of the gate.  Other reports say the Afghan National Army is building up forces in that area.

In Farah Province, provincial government officials say a U.S./NATO airstrike killed eight Mujahideen.

In Nuristan Province, provincial government officials say a member of al Qaeda, from Yemen, was killed by U.S./NATO drone strike.

150 Army National Guardsmen, from Alabama U.S.A., were just told their December deployment to Afghanistan has been “off ramped”.

Once again, and thanks to the generous donation of tax money from taxpayers in Europe, North America and even East Asia, the Afghan economy is booming!  That’s according to the latest report from the World Bank.  According to the World Bank, Afghanistan’s 2012 GDP hit an incredible 11.8%!   Doesn’t that make all you happy taxpayers feel good?

World War 3, West Asian Front: U.S., NATO and Israel escalate war on Syria & Iran!

22 April 2013 (15:08 UTC-07 Tango)/11 Jumada t-Tania 1434/02 Ordibehest 1391/13 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

Chronology of recent events:

14 April 2013; Syrian government troops begin pushing back U.S./NATO/Israeli backed insurgents (thousands of which are Chechens recruited by U.S. CIA and trained in Turkey and Greece), capturing many bases and most roads around Aleppo and Idlib.

15 April 2013; two U.S. citizens who are ethnic Chechens, and who were most likely recruited and trained by CIA to fight Jihad in Syria (revealed by U.S. ally Saudi Arabia last year), turn their U.S. training against the U.S. in classic blowback, allegedly setting off two bombs at the Boston Marathon.

In Aleppo Province, Syria, U.S. trained insurgents blow up a car, killing two and wounding 18.  U.S./Israeli trained insurgents also attacked the Palestinian Handarat refugee camp and killed seven people.

In Jaramana City, Syria, U.S. trained insurgents fire mortar rounds which land on a bus at a bus stop. At least four people killed, 12 wounded.

Russia’s Imperial Orthodox [Christian] Palestine Society sends 30 tons of aid to the Syrian government. The week prior Russia’s Ministry of Civil Defense, Emergencies and Disaster Relief sent 26.7 tons of aid to Syrian refugees in Lebanon.

Syrian government forces launch offensives in the provinces of Homs, Idlib, Daraa, Latakia, Hama, Deir ez-Zor, Aleppo, and Damascus.

16 April 2013; “Britain and France were complacent about supporting al Qaeda directly or indirectly…….The same forces that are killing innocent people in Syria are in Jordan too……We have stupid Arabs who are facilitating what the others are planning for the region. But the conspiracy begins in the west!”-Faisal al-Miqdad, Syria’s Deputy Foreign Minister

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad grants mercy on thousands of insurgents now in Syrian prisons.  Most will have their sentences cut in half, while those who were to be executed will serve life in prison. However, Decree Number 23 applies only to insurgents captured before 16 April.

The U.S. Senate Foreign Relations Committee adopted Senate Resolution 65, which says the taxpayers of the United States will provide Israeli with all diplomatic, economic and military assistance if Israel decides to unilaterally launch a first strike against Iran: “We have our plans and forecasts….If the time comes, we’ll decide.”-Lieutenant General Benny Gantz, Israeli Defense Forces Chief of Staff

17 April 2013; “Our Syrian people will not allow France to return to their country through supporting the armed terrorist groups and their conspiracy to further shed the blood of the Syrians!”-Syrian Foreign Ministry statement

Syrian President Bashar al-Assad warns that the U.S. training of insurgents will result in blowback: “The West has paid heavily for funding al Qaeda in its early stages. Today it is doing the same in Syria, Libya and other places, and will pay a heavy price in the heart of Europe and the United States.”

18 April 2013;  “We are working very, very closely with the Syrian opposition.”-John Kerry, U.S. Secretary of State

U.S. historian/economist, Webster Griffin Tarpley, says the U.S. is training insurgents for use in Syria “…as a kind of irregular or auxiliary force, a kind of irregular infantry…using al Qaeda as an irregular opposition force.” Tarpley also stated that it looks like the U.S. is now getting ready to use regular military forces to invade Syria.

Syrian government forces capture the strategic village of Abel, in Homs Province.  The village is at the cross roads of Homs, Damascus and Aleppo provinces.

19 April 2013; “Israel partnership with terrorist groups, allowing those armed groups to cross the separation line in the occupied Syrian Golan, treating their wounded in Israeli hospitals and returning them to the Syrian territory through the separation line…”-Bashar Ja’afari, Syrian Ambassador to the United Nations

UN officials blamed the U.S. supported/trained FSA is conducting murderous rapes: “The International Federation of Human Rights interviewed a Syrian man who witnessed the kidnapping of a young girl by elements of the Free Syrian Army. The girl was raped, and then killed. Her body was thrown in front of her house!”-Zainab Hawa Bangura, Special Representative of the UN Secretary General on Sexual Violence in Conflict

The United States announces that it is sending an additional 200 military personnel to Jordan.  Last year Iraqis and Jordanians revealed that U.S. troops who were supposed to be heading back to the States from Iraq were diverted to Jordan.

Russian Foreign Ministry Spokesman, Alexander Lukashevich, warned that the U.S. is intentionally escalating the war: “These actions exacerbate the Syria crisis, which is now gaining the dimensions of a regional crisis.”

Syrian government forces shoot down a U.S. recon balloon over the province of Idlib.

U.S. trained insurgents tried to capture the Syrian city of Talkalakh, near Lebanon.  They were repelled and retreated back into Lebanon.

20 April 2013;  The U.S. Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) director, U.S. Army Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, admitted Syria is winning: “…maintains the military advantage, particularly in firepower and air superiority….”

A massive battle in the Syrian province of Latakia, resulted in 200 U.S. insurgents killed by government forces.

Tunisia’s Mufti, Othman Battikh, said the U.S./NATO/Israeli backed insurgency in Syria is not true Jihad.  Those recruited to go fight against the Syrian government (like the alleged Boston Bombers) were “…fooled and have been brainwashed.”

The Obama administration announced that it will force happy U.S. taxpayers to fork over more money to the insurgents.  $130 million USD more!

U.S. trained insurgents assassinate 10 Syrian Finance Ministry civil servants in Damascus.

Syrian government forces capture several towns and cities along the border with Lebanon. (Qadesh, Mansouriyah, As’adiyah, and Radwaniyah in Homs Province)

Reports that Jordanian officials stole the IDs of 5000 Syrian refugees in the Zaatari refugee camp. Syrians who fled the camp say that Jordanian police are forcing Syrians to pay $200 to get their IDs back, and to be allowed to return to Syria.  Reports also say Syrians trying to flee the camp without paying the money were met with tear gas.

21 April 2013; The Syrian government says the overwhelming majority of Syrians are working to fight the U.S. trained insurgents.  Syrian government forces have captured military equipment made in the NATO member country of Turkey.

Israeli and British media reveals that the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) are attempting to convince Turkey to allow them to use a Turkish airbase, so that IDF aircraft can bomb Iran: “Until the recent crisis, Turkey was our biggest aircraft carrier. Using the Turkish airbases could make the difference between success and failure once a showdown with Iran gets underway.”-unnamed IDF source

U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel said the U.S. has no problem with Israel acting unilaterally against Iran:  “Israel will make the decisions that Israel must make…..”

John Kerry wrapped up his third trip to Turkey since becoming U.S. Secretary of State in February 2013 (I believe this is his second trip in April, one in March).  That’s a lot of trips to Turkey within three months. The main focus of every trip was trying to get Turkey to kiss and make up with Israel, for the purpose of building a more unified military front against Syria and Iran.

The Voice of America reported that the 11 country Friends of Syria axis will now direct all future aid to a General Salim Idris of the Free Syrian Army.  Yes that’s the same U.S. trained FSA the UN accuses of rape and murder.  John Kerry was ecstatic about the Friends of Syria decision:  “I think that maybe one of the most important single things that was agreed on last night that can make a difference to the situation of the ground.”

22 April 2013;  Turkish government officials denied reports from the British and Israeli media that Israel was planning on using a Turkish airbase to launch airstrikes against Iran.

The U.S. and Israel agreed on a $10 billion weapons deal.  When you realize that most of the money Israel gets comes from U.S. taxpayers, essentially Israel is getting the advanced weapon systems for almost free: “……the United States will make available to Israel a set of advanced new military capabilities….including anti-radiation missiles and advanced radars for fighter jets, KC135 refueling aircraft, and most significantly the V-22 Osprey…”-Chuck Hagel, U.S. Secretary of Defense

Syrian government forces launch offensive to retake the strategic town of al-Qusayr near the border with Lebanon.

In the province of Idlib, Syrian government forces destroyed a military supply convoy coming from Turkey.

U.S. trained insurgents bombed a military checkpoint in the town of al-Mleiha.  And in Damascus City, they fired mortar rounds which killed two girls, and wounded 13 other people, mostly children.

The European Union (EU) announced they will amend their oil and weapons ban against Syria, so that they can overtly provide weapons to U.S. trained insurgents, and they can buy petroleum from insurgents who control key pipelines.

Russian officials condemned the EU.

U.S. trained insurgents kidnapped two Orthodox Christian archbishops.

French media reporting that the Jordanian government will allow Israel to fly drone (UAV) airstrikes against Syria, through Jordanian airspace.

Magnitude 5+ earthquakes increasing? Several 7+ quakes so far for April 2013!

20 April 2013 (02:02 UTC-07 Tango)/09 Jumada t-Tania 1434/31 Farvardin 1391/11 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

There has been several magnitude 7 earthquakes around the world in just the past three weeks.

The USGS uses a modified type of richter scale magnitude system.  They tried to clear up confusion a few years ago with a press release, but I think it just made things more confusing.

Most western media are using USGS magnitude readings when they report earthquakes, but, several countries have created their own magnitudes that do not match USGS magnitude reports.  I am presenting USGS magnitudes.

The following are the 6 to 7+ magnitude quakes for April, so far:

On 20 April 2013 Sichuan, China, was hit by a 6.6 quake, followed by four 5 quakes.  Reports say at least 152 killed, more than 3000 injured!  The Chinese are calling the initial quake a 7+ magnitude.

Russian Kuril Islands (on the Pacific Ring of Fire) were hit with a 6.1 magnitude quake, followed by a 5.3 quake.

On 19 April 2013, again the Russian Kuril Islands, hit with a 7.2, then a 5.7.  The Kuril Islands have been experiencing many magnitude 5 and 6+ quakes since the beginning of this Gregorian year.

For more example of how different quake reports are used by different countries, on 18 April 2013, Japanese officials reported a 7 magnitude quake off the coast of northern Japan. However, the USGS did not report such a quake.  It is possible that the Kuril Islands 7.2 quake reported on early 19 April by USGS is the same quake that Japan claimed on the 18th.  Japan and Russia both have claims to some of the Kuril Islands.

On 16 April 2013, a 7.8 quake hit along the Iran-Pakistan border.  At least 40 people killed, mainly on the Pakistani side.

Papua New Guinea (on the Pacific Ring of Fire) 6.6 quake.

On 14 April 2013, again Papua New Guinea hit with 6.6 quake.  The island country has also been experiencing many magnitude 5+ quakes.

06 April 2013, Indonesia (Pacific Ring of Fire) a 7 quake.

From 01 April to 20 April 2013 there have been at least seven magnitude 6+ quakes.  For all of April 2012 there were ten magnitude 6+ quakes (which included two 8+ quakes near Sumatra on the Pacific Ring of Fire).  We have a little under a week and a half left for April 2013, will mother Earth break last years April numbers?

By the way, officials in San Francisco, California, just passed new earthquake safety rules.  The new law forces owners of wooden framed multi-story buildings to reinforce the lower walls and to help distribute the weight of the building more evenly on the frame.  It’s estimated it will cost property owners $60000 to $130000 USD per building.  The law comes after years of study by seismologists.

No more hot meals for U.S. forces in Afghanistan: “As a part of the responsible drawdown of operational forces…..commanders in some areas have altered the ration cycle. The same number of meals is provided, but the type of meal may have changed. Commanders have not eliminated breakfast.”-U.S. Army Major Adam Wojack, ISAF

16 Army National Guard troops from the U.S. Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands deployed to Afghanistan.  They are deploying as members of the Guam Army National Guard.

324 airmen of the Delaware Air National Guard deployed to Afghanistan.  Delaware Army National Guard soldiers are now training in Texas for deployment as well.  At least 700 Delaware Guard members are deployed around the World, and state officials say despite talk of pulling out of Afghanistan by the federal government they expect even more of their state militia to be deployed.

In Herat Province, two Italian/NATO troops wounded.  Their convoy was hit by an explosion.

In Jawzjan Province, Mujahideen captured a security check point.  Four cops killed, six wounded and captured.  Mujahideen also captured AK-47s and RPGs. Local government officials say the Mujahideen had help from cops that went over to their side.

Despite billions in tax money from other countries, unemployment is still rampant in Afghanistan.  An Afghan government report says 500000 jobs need to be created within the next year, or the security situation will get worse.

Afghan government officials say they’ve launched a campaign to wipe out 15,000 hectares (37,050 acres) of opium poppies.  But that’s only 10% of this year’s expected crop.  Already 24 Afghan National Police and seven Afghan National Army personnel have been killed in this year’s drug war.  Many were killed by landmines planted around the poppy fields.  90% of the World’s opium comes from Afghanistan.  Who’s buying that much, are there really that many addicts?  (???pharmaceutical companies looking for cheap ingredients for their opiate based pain killers???)

A U.S. investigation is proving what Afghan President Hamid Karzai has been claiming, that the United States is working with Mujahideen!  The U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) issued a report called Contracting With the Enemy.  It claims that millions of U.S. tax dollars have been flowing to Mujahideen! In fact the report says that 80% of U.S. reconstruction contracts might be financing the Mujahideen!  The report is available in PDF at the www.sigar.mil website.  Check it all you happy taxpayers!

U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Christopher Ward of Oak Ridge, Tennessee, was buried.  He was killed, along with five other U.S. citizens, the weekend before in Afghanistan.

In Nangarhar Province, the Jalalabad airbase was attacked (yet again), this time a civilian helicopter was damaged.

In Kunar Province, local government officials claim Pakistan fired artillery rockets into Afghanistan. Two people killed, two wounded.

The Australian Digger base at Tarin Kowt being readied for shut down as Diggers start packing up.  Australia wants to have their troops home by Xmas 2013.

While the diggers are getting out, Georgia Army National Guard engineer units arrived to replace Army National Guard engineer units from Oklahoma.

In Kunar Province, Afghan National Army (ANA) troops and Mujahideen engaged in several battles.  One battle involved at least 100 Mujahideen and lasted five hours.  At least 13 ANA soldiers killed, nine captured.  It sounds like Mujahideen took control of Nari District.  Mujahideen claim they suffered no casualties.

After ten months, residents of Kentucky welcomed back their Army National Guard engineer units.

In Helmand Province, Marjah District, a remote detonated bomb killed one civilian and wounded two others.

An Afghan government investigation into a U.S./NATO airstrike in Kunar Province confirms that at least 15 civilians were killed, four were children.  Another 25 people were wounded. U.S./NATO/ISAF officials called all victims Mujahideen.  The investigation said only seven Mujahideen were killed!

World War 3, West Asia Front: G8 +, Wars in the Middle East will not end, behind Arab Spring!

Syria: “…..reaffirmed their commitment to supporting a Syrian-led political transition, and the work of Joint UN and Arab League Special Representative Brahimi…..called for the UN Security Council to remain seized of this matter…”

Yemen: “….re-affirmed their strong support for the political transition process in Yemen, including the start of the National Dialogue Conference, as outlined in the Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) Initiative and the UN Implementation Plan…urged all parties to comply with UNSCRs 2014 and 2051…..welcomed the generous pledges made by the Friends of Yemen….recognised the stability of Yemen remains essential for the stability of the wider region, and the maintenance of international security….advance security sector reform and ongoing efforts to counter the continued threat from AQ-AP and other violent extremists.”

Iran: “G8 Foreign Ministers expressed their deep concern regarding Iran’s continuing nuclear and ballistic missile activities….Iran has the ability to avoid further isolation and improve its situation only if it promptly addresses the concerns of the international community [meaning the Trilateral Commission, which is actually what the G8 is].”

Israel/Palestine: “Ministers expressed grave concerns about the poor state of the Palestinian economy, and the impact this has on Palestinian state-building efforts. Ministers affirmed their support for the Palestinian Authority and encouraged Arab countries, as well as emerging economies, to extend the fullest assistance possible to revitalising the Palestinian economy.”

“The Ministers welcomed the Egyptian-brokered ceasefire of 21 November 2012 which ended hostilities in Gaza and southern Israel, condemned rocket attacks in contravention of this and urged all sides to uphold their commitments.”

There was no mention of ongoing/current atrocities committed by Israel against Palestinians since the November ‘ceasefire’.  There was no mention that the zionist government of Israel is the main reason the Palestinian economy is in shambles!

Arab Spring: “The Deauville Partnership with Arab Countries in Transition has played an important role in bringing together Middle Eastern and North African countries in transition, regional partner countries, G8 members, and International Financial Institutions in an effective and pragmatic partnership to promote successful economic and political transition.”

What this means is the G8/Trilateral Commission is behind the Arab Spring, and it is nothing more than the Western Christian Financier takeover of Islamic dominated countries, because Islam does not accept western christian financial (banking) policies.

The Group of Eight are: United States, Russia, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, France, Canada, Japan, plus European Union.

Officials with the U.S. states of Oregon and Georgia, say their National Guard units are still on standby to be deployed to Afghanistan in 2014! The state military officials were responding to local media questions regarding rumors the state militias were told they’ve been “off-ramped” from deployment.  The rumors were started because the Indiana National Guard was told, for the third time in three years, that they’ve been off-ramped for Afghanistan deployment.  There have been reports that more RA and Guard units are being sent to Somalia.

A U.S. Air force pilot was killed when his F-16 Falcon/Viper crashed.  ISAF mentioned only that the F-16 was on a night mission.

In Kabul Province, Deh Sabz District, Mujahideen claim they shot down a U.S./NATO aircraft.  They say the plane broke apart as it came down. U.S./NATO helicopters came in afterward and bombed the wreckage in order to prevent Mujahideen collecting any weapons or sensitive items.

In Ghazni Province, local government officials say the U.S./NATO conducted a Blue on Green airstrike.  They say U.S./NATO aircraft bombed local policemen in Deh-Yak district: “A number of the Afghan local police officers were patrolling when they were attacked by NATO aircrafts, killing four police officers along with two civilians.”-Fazal Ahmad, District governor

In Parwan Province, Mujahideen attacked the U.S. Bagram air base.  Ten U.S. military vehicles, and a contracted fueler, were destroyed. Mujahideen say they attacked a fuel terminal near the base.  However, local government officials say the vehicles were destroyed when a single gas cylinder accidentally exploded.

In Maidan Wardak Province, home invasions continue despite the U.S. SOF forces supposedly pulling out.  The house of Sultan Muhammad in Syed Abad district was invaded, and one of his cousins, and two of his employees were kidnapped.

In Kapisa Province, after an all day battle with Mujahideen, in which locals say the Mujahideen won, U.S. led forces then began raiding homes in Tagab District.  Locals say 50 people were kidnapped, and two people were beaten unconscious.

In Bakhshan Province, the Afghan government has declared a major military offensive in Wardoj/Wardaj District over.

NATO claims that the Afghan National Army (ANA) is losing 5000 troops every month.  Not to battle, to desertion.  According to the study, when you include death, captures and firings the ANA lost 63000 troops last year!

The Scottish media reporting that the U.K. Ministry of Defence has drastically increased the removal of military forces and equipment from Afghanistan.  The biggest increase is in equipment considered ATCO (Attractive to Criminal and Terrorist Organizations).
