World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 16-17 August 2013: U.S. General says U.S. is a big fail! More corruption on the occupier’s side!

A retired U.S. Army Lieutenant General criticized how the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan has been handled: “By my count right now, we’ve had 11 overall U.S. commanders in Afghanistan during 12 years of war.  No university and no business could survive that kind of turnover and remain successful.  We’re doing this in the middle of a war where the enemy is actively trying to make you fail.”-David Barno

 In Kandahar Province, Kandahar airbase, a suicide bomber attacked a U.S./NATO military convoy.  22 NATO and Afghan military personnel wounded, three civilians wounded.  The suicide bomber was wearing a bomb vest.

In Herat Province, Karkh District, local police say nine construction workers, who were working on a nearby bridge project, were killed while staying at a police checkpoint.  One cop was killed, another wounded during the Mujahideen attack.  Mujahideen say everyone at the checkpoint was armed and shooting, including those the police say were construction workers.  One Mujahid was killed.  Mujahideen say they also captured weapons.

Mujahideen reported many attacks on police checkpoints across Afghanistan.

In Kabul Province, Kabul city, a magnetic ‘sticky’ bomb was placed on a parked vehicle.  The explosion did not kill or wound anybody, according to local police.

In Helmand Province, Marjah District, a family of eight drove over a landmine.  Five killed, three wounded.  The Stars and Stripes reports another waste of taxpayer money in the contractor operated Helmand Regional Distribution Center.  It is literally a privately run FOB (Forward Operating Base).  It was built and is operated by controversial Swiss based Supreme Group.  That contractor has come under fire before, accused of ripping off taxpayers.  The U.S. Congress supposedly is investigating the $4.2 billion USD mega-FOB over billing disputes.

According to the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) military contractors now outnumber actual military personnel by two to one.

In Balkh Province, Mazar-e-Sharif city, a fire destroyed at least 200 businesses.  No official reason for the fire, but some witnesses say there was an explosion before the fire.

In Farah Province, Farah Rod District, a NATO supply convoy was ambushed on the Herat HWY.  Ten fueler trucks were torched, eight security guards killed, five wounded.  Three Mujahideen wounded, two killed.    Also, in the same district, a religious leader in Takht Manzar area was kidnapped by U.S./Afghan National Army personnel during a helicopter raid.  And a local government military commander was assassinated, along with his bodyguards.  It was done by a suicide bomber wearing a bomb vest.  Locals say it was about time the A-hole commander died: “Auz Khan was notorious in the area for his brutally and utter loyalty to foreign invaders and was the one that also martyred a 60 year old…”

NATO member Poland announced they are pulling out, or are they?  Polish officials said in October about 600 troops will return home, but that still leaves 1-thousand Polish troops incountry.

Documentary filmmakers in New Zealand have revealed the truth about Kiwi military operations in Afghanistan.  Officially New Zealand Defence Forces were supposed to be involved in reconstruction projects, but the journalists found they spent most of their time on military patrols.  Also, the New Zealand Special Air Service was supposed to be conducting training of Afghan troops, instead there is evidence they were actually conducting Israeli style home invasions.

A U.S. Marine from Florida admitted to local news media that he loved killing people in Afghanistan: “I like the way people look up to us as Marines. That enforces the way we carry ourselves. I like being a warrior. Very few people can do it and I’m proud to be one who can.”-Charles Legido

Legido bragged about the 70 firefights he was in.  To give a clue where the U.S. might be attacking next, Legido’s next deployment is to Yemen.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Korea ships ballistic missiles to Syria! Japan to join fight! It is about regime change!

29 August 2013 (22:27 UTC-07 Tango 28 August 2013)/22 Shawwal 1434/07 Shahrivar 1391/23 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

Japanese news media reporting that government sources from Japan and Republic of Korea (aka South Korea) say Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (aka North Korea) shipped 40 new short range ballistic missiles to Syria earlier this year.

U.S. sources say Syria is planning on using the missiles on Israel if it is attacked.

Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary, Yoshihide Suga, said his country is working with United States on future attacks against Syria.

And Japan’s neo-imperialist Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe, is in Qatar for security meetings with Arabian peninsula countries.  He told local news media that military action against Syria should be about regime change.   The emir of Qatar, Tamim bin Hamad Al-Thani, agreed.

Martial Law Lebanon: You must now publicly ID your car if you want to park on the street!

28 August 2013 (17:24 UTC-07 Tango)/21 Shawwal 1434/06 Shahrivar 1391/22 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

“We urge citizens who leave their cars in infrequent parking locations to put cards that identify the owners of these vehicles.  The card should include the full name of the driver, as well as the place of residence and the phone number that he or she can be reached on…….We call on citizens not to make a scene in the case of a suspicious car and to avoid damaging the vehicle.”-Lebanese Internal Security Forces

Lebanon’s ISF is using recent car bombings as an excuse to require people to ID their cars when parking on the street.  Apparently with the escalating U.S./Israeli  instigated war in Syria, Lebanese officials expect things to get really bad in Lebanon.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Jordanian official says troops are ready to invade Syria! Insurgents will also be targeted! It’s about the oil!

28 August 2013 (17:12 UTC-07 Tango)/21 Shawwal 1434/06 Shahrivar 1391/22 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

Arab news sources say an unnamed, but high level, Jordanian government source says U.S., Jordanian and even Saudi Arabian military personnel are  ready to invade Syria.  The invasion will be rationalized with the claim that U.S. led forces are creating a safe buffer zone in southern Syria for refugees: “A buffer zone will be created in southern Syria to accommodate the new numbers of Syrian refugees, and Western and Arab fighter jets have been put on alert at the Jordanian-Syrian border as a precaution against any retaliation by the Syrian regime against Jordanian territory.”

The so called buffer zones could actually be Syrian oil fields as the Jordanian official called them “sensitive sites”.

The Official also said that warplanes from the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia arrived.  Their crews have been trained for attacks against specific targets in Syria: “These forces have been trained in terrains that are similar to Syria’s geography to guarantee that they would reach their targets with the minimum losses possible.”

The official said some U.S./Western backed insurgent groups viewed as too radical will also be targeted: “Military strikes will also target several positions of the terrorist groups that are operating in Syria.”

World War 3, West Asian Front: Russians evacuate Syria, U.S. & Jordanian forces invade Syria, Israel mobilizes stormtroopers!

28 August 2013 (12:40 UTC-07 Tango)/21 Shawwal 1434/06 Shahrivar 1391/22 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

Reports out of Jordan that U.S. forces are mobilizing on the Jordan-Syrian border.   Reports that Russia has evacuated about 100 citizens out of Syria.  Those citizens supposedly asked to leave, Russia has not issued an evacuation order.  There are still thousands of Russians in Syria.

Two commercial airliner pilots reported that the United Kingdom has dispatched military aircraft to the island country of Cyprus.  Residents told British news media “activity there has been much higher than normal over the past 48 hours.”

Israeli news media reports that U.S. backed insurgents are massing for a major attack on Damascus.  Israel has canceled all leave for military personnel and has activated reserve units.  Gas masks are being handed out to the public.

French news source, Le Figaro, says U.S., Israeli and Jordanian special ops forces are already inside Syria.  They invaded on 17 August, and are part of a 300 man insurgent force.  Then more U.S./Israeli/Jordanian special ops forces invaded on 19 August.

A few days ago the Stars and Stripes reported that an emergency three day meeting was called by U.S. Army General Martin Dempsey.   The meeting is in Jordan and ends today.  It involves generals from Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, United Kingdom, France, Germany, Italy and Canada.   Recently Dempsey told the U.S. Congress that any military action against Syria would result in another long war for the U.S.

World War 3, East Asian Front: TriLateral Imperialism as the U.S. mulls allowing Japan to invade Korea!!!

28 August 2013 (12:06 UTC-07 Tango)/21 Shawwal 1434/06 Shahrivar 1391/22 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

The TriLateral imperialist member leaders of Europe, North America and East Asian will allow Japan to draw up invasion plans of Korea!

In the country of Brunei a meeting of defense (war pigs) officials is taking place, and it’s led by trilateral leader United States (the 2013 Association of Southeast Asian Nations defense ministers meeting).  According to Japanese news media the Japanese Defense Minister, Itsunori Onodera, asked U.S. Secretary of Defense Chuck Hagel for permission to draw up attack plans against Korea, specifically the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (aka North Korea).

Officially both the U.S. and Japanese leaders claim it’s necessary to counter any missile strike threat from Korea.  This would mark the first time since the Second World War that Japan would openly plan to invade another country!

The current right wing neo-imperialist government of Japan says they do not want to play second fiddle to the United States when it comes to Korea, they want the option of unilateral military action.

Koreans should be upset, whether they live in the north or in the U.S. puppet south, because Japan has a history of invading and occupying Korea: 1st invasion Gregorian year 1592, 2nd invasion 1597.  It was those first invasions that created in the minds of Japanese that Korea belonged to Japan.

The Japan-Korea Treaty of 1876 was an imperialist move by Japan, using the rule of law at that time (proof that the ‘rule of law’ can be pure evil) to subjugate Korea to their rule.   That process involved destabilizing Korea, much like what the U.S.-British empire is doing in Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt and Syria.  (destabilizing an area prior to imperial take over is an age old British empire tactic.  in military terms it’s the same concept as softening up the target area before invasion.)

Japan occupied Korea from 1905 to 1945, and has yet to pay for all the atrocities it committed against the Koreans.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 14-15 August 2013: More proof the U.S. ain’t leavin’! Afghanistan is a test for the new British-U.S. Empire!

In Kunar Province, Asadabad city, local government officials say a NATO/ISAF rocket artillery attack killed two civilians.  U.S./NATO officials denied the attack, but local officials say the rockets were launched from a NATO/ISAF base.

In Takhar Province, Khwajah Bahauddin District, a remote controlled bomb went off as a Afghan National Police convoy passed by.  Reports say at least 16 people killed or wounded.

In Herat Province, Injeel District, a translator for NATO/ISAF troops was assassinated.  His computer was taken.

In Baghlan Province, Kabul-Baghlan highway, a remote controlled bomb exploded killing two bodyguards and wounding two people.  It was an assassination attempt on a politician from Balkh Province.  The politician survived.

Despite a female politician’s family swearing she and her children were not kidnapped, Mujahideen released the very same children today.   Mujahideen also say they have the female member of parliament and will exchange her for prisoners.  Of course now the family admits she was kidnapped.

At least 75 Afghan National Army and National Police personnel have switched sides and bacame Mujahideen, in the provinces of Nangarhar, Helmand, Zabul and Badghis.

Reports that President Hamid Karzai nominated a ‘jihadi’ to run for president in 2014.

An election fraud watchdog has already cried foul!  The Free and Fair Election Foundation of Afghanistan is reporting at least 1-thousand cases of voter registration fraud.  The frauds include children being registered to vote, voter IDs being given out to the wrong person and more than one voter IDs issued per person.

Japan gives Afghanistan $8.2 million USD for a new computer sciences building at Kabul University.  Japan also gave Kabul University ten buses.

The Carnegie Endowment for International Peace stated that Iran is well positioned to be a major influence in Central Asia, and that the United States should improve relations with Iran, in order to facilitate long term U.S. policies in the area.

USMC General Joseph Dunford insisted that a significant number of U.S. troops should remain after the supposed 2014 U.S./NATO pullout: “The post-2014 presence is a lot more complicated than the numbers and the numbers have become a distraction, to be honest with you.”

Recently retired U.S. Navy Admiral, James Stavridis, gave this clue to what the U.S. has planned after 2014: “Why 15,000 troops? The post-2014 mission needs to be spread across Afghanistan, with centers in each of the regional commands; north (Mazar-e-Sharif), west (Herat), south (Kandahar), and east (Bagram). There will have to be smaller centers in some of those regions as well, and a reliable ability to protect our own people and potentially provide some in-extremis support to the Afghan National Security Forces. All told, that will require 15,000 troops, still quite low compared with the 130,000 we had on the ground as recently as two years ago. This level would also provide critical mentoring and training in the areas in which the ANSF are still developing, logistics, intelligence, medical support, close air support, and so forth.”

In a report out of the British empire country of Canada, it was revealed that the War on Terror is nothing more than an exercise of the new British-U.S. empire: “…the institutions of the Canadian state were remade in a decade after 9/11 to reflect new imperial realities……Canadians were urged to see their armed forces not as their armed forces, but as part of a North American and North Atlantic security system.….the creation of a network of soldier-journalists, specialized and secretive groups of civil servants supposedly devoted to ‘democratic governance’ and an unending attempt to control the images and messages broadcast….”-Afghanistan and the politics of memory, Ottawa Citizen

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 12-13 August 2013: Cholera outbreak! $1 trillion worth of Rare Earth Minerals!

The Afghan Interior Ministry says at least 14 people killed in military operations in Balkh, Ghazni, Kandahar and Kunduz provinces.  Three Mujahideen wounded, two captured.

In Ghazni Province, reports that men dressed in Afghan National Army (ANA) uniforms stopped a bus, then dragged eight people off and killed them (sounds like what’s happening in Mexico).

In Kandahar Province, another cemetery bomb killed two people and wounded three.

In Uruzgan Province, Char Chino District, seven people killed, four wounded after at least three explosions, according to local police.

In Farah Province, Bala Baluk District, reports that one woman killed, and four women and five children wounded after U.S. trained government forces fired indiscriminately into a village.

In Bakhshan Province, Derayam District, 1400 people sickened with cholera.  25 people are critical, a 19 years old woman died.  Health officials blame lack of clean water.  NGOs and the United Nations have sent health teams to treat the sick.

In Parwan Province, Parsa Valley, villagers rebelled against U.S. trained government troops.  Reports say the villagers have succeeded in kicking out government forces.

43 members of the Afghan National Army, and various police agencies, joined the Mujahideen.  At least five are ANA officers.  The defections took place in the provinces of Laghman, Paktiya, Balkh, Uruzgan, Helmand and Juzjan.

The family of a female member of parliament who was reported kidnapped, along with her children, claims she is safe in Turkey.  However, police swear she was kidnapped as she drove to Kabul.

More reasons why the U.S. is really in Afghanistan for the natural resources: An estimated $1-trillion USD worth of rare earth minerals to build your new tablets and cell phones!  That’s according to a U.S. Department of Defense report which calls Afghanistan the “Saudi Arabia of lithium”.

World War 3, West Asian Front: Syria allows UN inspectors to investigate latest gas attack! Has massive evidence it was Flase Flag Op by U.S. backed insurgents!

“An army unit is surrounding a sector of Jobar where terrorists used chemical weapons…..the army found barrels marked ’made in Saudi Arabia’  and gas masks.”-Syrian news media report

Syrian Foreign Minister, Walid Al-Muallem, says the United Nations inspection team is welcome to inspect the recent gas attack in Damascus.

In the Damascus suburb of Jobar, Syrian Arab Army (SAA, government) troops have found a tunnel being used by U.S. backed insurgents for making massive amounts of chemical bombs.  The SAA says the discovery was made by troops who then suffered chemical inhalation, some are in critical condition.

The SAA also reported that there have been major battles between government forces and U.S. insurgents in that area for several days.  It’s possible that the latest gas attack was the result of government conventional artillery strikes hitting an insurgent chemical weapon making operation.

The Australian Department of Defence is crying about Afghanistan’s exit tax!  Afghanistan is charging the Diggers $3545 per container, that leaves Afghanistan by road.  Australia says it might be cheaper to fly the military equipment out.

The Afghan government has agreed to hold peace talks with Mujahideen in Turkey or Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.

The U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) reports that an Afghan trucking contractor working for the U.S. military has stolen $77 million USD!  It took three years of investigating to find where the money went.

According to German news media reports, the Afghan Ministry of Defense says U.S. taxpayers are paying for 24 brand new C-130 transport aircraft for the Afghan National Air Force, on top of the 20 Super Tucano COIN birds!
