World War 3: Egypt & Israel at war in the Sinai! U.S. increases military aid to Egypt! But who are they fighting?

12 August 2012

Egyptian President, Mohammed Morsi, has “retired” the top two Egyptian military commanders; Chief of Staff Sami Enan and Defense Minister Hussein Tantawi, one week after the 05 August 2012 insurgent attack against Egypt and Israel.

In the latest battles taking place on the Egyptian/Israeli border, Egyptian security forces claim to have killed at least seven insurgents, and captured a cache of weapons including mines and anti-aircraft missiles.

However, one village leader says the claim of killed insurgents is doubtful: “There were no bodies found or transferred to local hospitals.”-Ahmed Sallam, resident of El Arish

The locals say the insurgents are not from the area, although Egyptian officials believe that some of the insurgents are Egyptians and Palestinians.

In another incident, three Egyptian cops were killed, four wounded, when their vehicle flipped over as they were chasing insurgents.

Some people think Bedouins (nomads) are behind the attacks against Egyptian forces.  There have been cases of weapons being brought in from Libya, after the U.S./European led insurgency ended in that country, and ending up in the hands of nomads.

One villager who saw the 05 August 2012 insurgent attack said: “Whoever did this was very well trained.”-Abu Asma, witnessed insurgent attack on Egyptian border post

Egypt is now building up ground forces in the Sinai, specifically mechanized infantry operating YPR 765 armored personnel carriers (APC).  The military action is being called Operation Eagle 2.

An Israeli media source said United Nations Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) troops were attacked, however, MFO officials say no such attack took place.

11 August 2012

Unconfirmed media reports said that Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) had crossed into Sinai by several hundred meters. This might be connected with the Amnesty International report the day before.

U.S. media reports said that the Obama administration has promised the new Egyptian government increased military assistance, as well as: “…police training, and electronic and aerial surveillance…” The New York Times

10 August 2012

Egyptian military leaders accused three members of Hamas (some reports say five) of training the insurgents who conducted the 05 August attack against Egypt and Israel.

There are reports that Egyptian troops are randomly arresting Bedouins and Palestinians in the Sinai. The police chief of the village El Arish found teenaged Palestinians in his jail. He told reporters he had no authority: “He belongs to the army now.”-Mohamed Suleiman

Other reports say men as old as 72 years have been arbitrarily arrested. Many of the older men arrested had been political prisoners under the U.S. supported Mubarak regime.

Egyptians in the Sinai say the Egyptian army seems to be putting on a show: “We thought they were chasing someone, but their arms [weapons] were directed up and we didn’t see who they were fighting with. We couldn’t find any bodies or signs of battle after they left.”-witness from al Toumah village

Also, Amnesty International released a report saying Israel was using the insurgent activities in the Sinai as an excuse to stop illegal immigration, by sending IDF troops into Egyptian territory to round up what the IDF claims to be “infiltrators”.

Amnesty International says such IDF tactics have been going on for months, and they have swore statements from IDF troops as proof: “…was taken to a briefing given by reservist soldiers who served at the border site before him, who told him of a new procedure to stop ‘infiltrators’ by stationing soldiers hundreds of meters inside Egypt in order to stop them before they arrive at the border.”

“The problem is that at present neither Israel nor Egypt know enough about who the enemy is, where he is situated, who his handler is and who is paying him.”-Alex Fishman, Yediot Aharonot daily

Egyptian military claimed their helicopters killed 20 insurgents, however, local villagers said that any insurgents in the area had already left by the time the helicopters showed up.

Israel handed over the bodies of those insurgents involved in the 05 August attack. The identities of the attackers are not being made public.

“…Israel is taking advantage of such attacks, using them as justification to push measures that serve the state’s security vision for the border triangle……the perpetrators are serving Israeli interests by undermining Egyptian security and providing Israel with pretexts to justify the way it deals with Palestinians.”-Al-Monitor

06 August 2012 

“The armed forces have been careful in the past months and during the events of the revolution not to shed Egyptian blood…but the group that staged yesterday’s attack is considered by the armed forces as enemies of the nation who must be dealt with by force.”-Egyptian military statement

“Israel and Egypt clearly have a shared interest in maintaining a quiet border. But when talking about the security of Israeli citizens, Israel must and will rely only on itself.”-Benjamin Netanyahu, Prime Minister of Israel

“We hope this will be a fitting wake up call for the Egyptians to take things in hand on their side more forcefully.”-Ehud Barak, Israeli Defense Minister

One Israeli media source said the “wake up call” for Egypt was known about by the Israeli government well in advance of the 05 August attack: “Israeli intelligence had information on the planned attack, which allowed the military to have helicopters in the area to strike the vehicle, an Israel Defense Forces spokesman said Monday……Israel had shared the intelligence with Egypt in advance of the attack…”-Jewish Telegraphic Agency

 05 August 2012

Insurgents attacked an Egyptian border post, killing 16 Egyptian soldiers.  The attack came while they were eating dinner. For some reason no guards were posted on that night.  Even though local villagers ran to see what was going on, no military or police forces responded for at least an hour.

The insurgents stole an APC, drove one mile into Israel, where they were blown up by Israeli forces.

An Israeli official blamed the attack on Iran: “Iranian backed terrorists again [?] struck at our Southern border today killing 15 Egyptian guards and attempting to massacre Israeli civilians.”-Michael Oren, Israeli Ambassador to the U.S.

My thoughts are that this whole thing is a set up!  The groups behind this (right wing religious nut jobs in the U.S., Israel and Egypt) are trying real hard to push Israel and Egypt into a full blown war.

Military leaders of the United Kingdom are asking the British government to keep their troops in Afghanistan past the 2014 pull out date.  An unnamed British military source said: “The plan is for British and U.S. troops to take a back seat role next year but that is not going to happen in reality. The ANA [Afghan National Army] has been able to build capacity but it lacks quality and that’s the worry.”

In Herat Province, three children were killed after a bomb went off in the area they were playing in.

ISAF claims an al Qaeda “leader” was killed in Kunar Province.

09 August 2012, France has revealed they are sending troops to the border between Jordan and Syria. Syria was a French colony between World War One and World War Two.

Officially the first French troops are medical personnel, supposedly to treat refugees, but other sources say they are to treat wounded rebels: “There will be many wounded who have crossed the Jordanian-Syrian border, those wounded by gunfire who will need surgery.”-Colonel Gerard Dosseh, French military

The Italians have also set up medic facilities along the Jordanian-Syrian border.

Syrian rebels, including those claiming to be with al Qaeda, are reportedly being trained by the infamous U.S. corporation now known as Academi (aka Xe Services, Blackwater USA and Blackwater Worldwide).

World War 3: U.S. led NATO member Turkey invades Syria

07 August 2012, there are reports from northern Syria that hundreds of Turkish soldiers and armored vehicles crossed into Syria.  Turkey is denying such reports, but has already warned the Syrian government that they would invade on the pretext of fighting Kurdish Mujahideen.

There are reports that 40 of Turkish troops have been captured inside Syria, as well as the capture of a Turkish general in the Syrian city of Aleppo.

Witnesses to the Turkish raid said the troops stopped at a village, and were escorting a large number of militants who are not Turkish. The Turks also gave the militant group weapons including anti-aircraft missiles.

The name of the village is Jarablos (aka Cerablos), it is in the Kurdish dominated area of Syria.

Kurds have been fighting for almost a hundred years to regain their autonomous regions, which run through Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran.  The Kurds lost those areas when the British stabbed them in the back after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, after the end of World War One.

World War 3: U.S. occupation of Afghanistan; 29 July – 31 July. U.S. violates night raid agreement, again! Auswitch in Kabul! Mujahideen profiting from NATO supply routes from Pakistan! Afghanistan on verge of war with Pakistan! Afghan cops behind new war with Tajikistan! ISAF investigation reveals Green on Blue attacks caused by ass hole U.S. led forces!

31 July 2012

French occupation troops began pulling out.  France wants all their troops out by the end of 2012.

In Herat Province, yet again U.S. forces conducted a night time raid.  This time four civilians were wounded inside their home.  Local Afghan officials said the U.S. did not consult with them, and no Afghan government troops accompanied the U.S. troops, which are violations of the recent agreements signed between Afghanistan and the U.S.!  For some reason U.S. occupation troops have been conducting a lot of night time raids in Herat Province, many of them look like vengeance raids against local cops!

In Laghman Province, one teenager was killed, four wounded, after they found an old mine and started hitting it with a rock!

The U.S. puppet country of Georgia said a 17th soldier has died from wounds received in Afghanistan.  He had been in a coma since January 2012, after being caught in a mortar attack.

Mujahideen revealed they are actually making money off the U.S./NATO supply convoys coming through Pakistan!  The money is being made by charging the convoy security companies a fee which will allow the convoys to go through without being attacked.  This is actually standard practice in this part of the world, has been going on since the time of the Silk Road, think of it as a type of  Mafioso toll road.  So what this means is that the real reason a U.S./NATO supply convoy is attacked is because they didn’t pay the local ‘security’ fees!

In Badakhshan Province, a local police chief has been arrested and accused of instigating a border war with Tajikistan. The border was closed after Tajikistan troops conducted a cross border raid into Afghanistan. Tajik officials say it was in response to attacks against Tajik villages, the attackers came from Afghanistan.

The Afghan senate officially accused Pakistan of attacking Afghanistan.  Some officials claim Pakistan has fired 3,000 artillery rockets into Kunar Province in the past two months.  Afghan government officials believe the shelling is part of a covert plan by Pakistan to flood Afghanistan with insurgents.

In Kunar Province, local government officials claim they’ve killed six militants, and captured three.  Officials say some of the militants were Pakistani.

30 July 2012

In Farah Province, at least 23 U.S. trained militia men have defected to the Mujahideen. Afghan government officials, including President Hamid Karzai, warned the United States against such a program because the Soviets tried the same thing back in the 1980s, and it failed.

International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) Brigadier General Gunter Katz (of Germany) held a meeting with Afghan government officials over the increased attacks against U.S. led occupying troops by Afghan government troops.  So far this year there were 21 attacks launched against U.S. led forces by Afghan government forces.  Katz says most of those incidents had nothing to do with Mujahideen: “We have thoroughly probed these incidents. Our investigations have revealed such incidents take place due to personal matters, pressure and other such issues.”

The Afghan House of Representatives approved a new military pact with the United Kingdom.  The pact includes political cooperation, security issues,  improvement of legal system, economic and social development.  Other countries recently signing “strategic” pacts with Afghanistan are India, United States, France, Germany, Australia and Italy.

A Kabul hospital being run by the United States is now being investigated for abusing patients, in “Auschwitz like conditions”! The ass hole military commander in charge, U.S. Army Lieutenant General William Caldwell, and his deputy, Major General Gary Patton, are being accused of interfering with the investigation.

The accusers are whistleblowers and U.S. military investigators: “The evidence is clear to me that General Caldwell had the request withdrawn and postponed until after the [November 2010 U.S. congressional] election and then, after the election, tried to intimidate his subordinates into a consensus that it need not move forward at all.”-Retired U.S. Army Colonel Gerald Carozza Jr

Another investigator believes Caldwell was also acting on orders from the Department of Defense, citing a DoD memo which said: “Under no circumstances will they be shared outside of this command, transmitted via email, posted to the internet, or duplicated in any way without prior approval of the Command Surgeon….”-Jason Chaffetz, U.S. House Representative from Utah

In September 2011, the Wall Street Journal revealed that people in the U.S. run Dawood National Military Hospital were dying of simple infections and even starvation, because the patients did not have the money to pay for treatment or food!!!  Retired U.S. Air Force Colonel Schuyler Geller confirms the accusations in a memo, and is now an official witness.

Several high ranking officers blew the whistle on the Auschwitz operation, and were reprimanded by Caldwell: “Lt Gen Caldwell screamed at these three officers, waving his finger at them for trying to bring in the DoD IG [Inspector General].”-Retired U.S. Army Colonel Gerald Carozza Jr

Caldwell is also being investigated for violating the Military Whistleblower Protection Act.

In Uruzgan Province, someone bombed a local Mosque, killing five people. Local officials suspect the target was a judge, who was killed in the blast.

ISAF claims they arrested an explosives expert in Kunduz Province. They say he is part of the Islamic Movement of Uzbekistan.

29 July 2012

In Ghazni Province, local government officials claim they’ve launched a campaign against the Mujahideen, using local villagers as militia.

Also in Ghazni Province, more than 100 shops were burned down.  Local government officials are blaming it on an electrical short circuit. The fire was so huge that local officials asked U.S. led occupying forces to help put it out.

ISAF said: “Two International Security Assistance Force service members died following an insurgent attack in western Afghanistan today.”

In Kunar Province, four Afghan army officers were arrested.  They are accused of selling back weapons to Mujahideen, weapons that were confiscated in raids.

Also in Kunar Province, local officials claim Pakistan fired 250 rockets into the area.

In Kabul Province, and Afghan parliament member survived an assassination attempt.  Another official was wounded in the attack.

Also in Kabul Province, two people were sentenced to 16 years in prison for spying.  No official word on who they were spying for, but unnamed sources say they were working for Iran.

In Maidan Wardak Province, a local official was assassinated: “The Governor of Chak district, Mohammad Ismael Wafa, was on his way to office this morning when unidentified armed men opened fire on his vehicle killing him on the spot and injuring his son.”-official government statement

The Afghan Interior Ministry claim that more than 17 Mujahideen were killed in battles in Nangarhar, Kunduz, Balkh, Ghazni and Helmand provinces.

World War 3: Former IDF inteligence boss says any Israeli attack against Iran would be the beginning of continued attacks for years to come

The following quotes are from Major General Aharon Ze’evi Farkash, former Israeli Defense Forces intelligence chief

“An attack is not a single strike and once it happens we are in a whole other world. Iran will pull out of the [nuclear] Non-Proliferation Treaty…..and it will be clear that they need a bomb now so that we cannot attack them again. This means that Israel will need legitimacy to be able to maintain the operation with more attacks within weeks, months and years after.” 

“Israel without legitimacy will not be able to, over time, maintain the results of a successful attack.”

“I think that within this window it is difficult to imagine that something will happen a month before [U.S.] elections.”

World War 3: Lebanese parliament official says World War guaranteed if Syria attacked

“I don’t think the Syrian regime would collapse, but if it gets close to collapse, a new world war will erupt because China and Russia won’t let the regime in Syria collapse!”-Michel Aoun, Free Patriotic Movement

04 August 2012, a member of the Lebanese parliament warned that a third world war was guaranteed if Syria was attacked.

In a TV interview he also gave these warnings: “The U.S. is interested in Israel’s security and this requires targeting Syria.” also “There are already organizations loyal to Al-Qaeda under different names in the country and no one knows their connections.”
