World War 3, West Asian Front: Israel activates 2000 Reserve troops!

04 May 2013 (01:24 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Jumada t-Tania 1434/14 Ordibehest 1391/25 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

The main streamer U.S. media was all over the claims by Israel that the Syrian government used chemical weapons, but what they didn’t tell you is that Israel activated 2000 IDF reserve soldiers at the same time.

Officially the call up is being called, essentially, an impromptu war game.  But one zionist Israeli media source said their sources in the IDF called the Northern Command reservist activation “revolutionary and important”, because apparently the Israeli Defense Minister, Moshe Ya’alon, wasn’t told about it!

2000 IDF reserve soldiers were activated.  The ‘war games’ near the border with Lebanon, involve live ammo.  Rumors are spreading throughout Israel that this is actually preps for an invasion of Syria: “The scenario involves Lebanon, but it could also be Syria.”-unnamed IDF source

Ya’alon has been avoiding the Israeli media, but new reports say he’s starting to officially question why he wasn’t told about these impromptu war games.

Israeli analysts have said the size of the war games are not unusual.  What is unusual is that they seemed to be ordered on the spur of the moment, and why wasn’t the Defense Minister told?

“We don’t know what the chain of custody is.  This could’ve been an Israeli false flag operation…..what I’m hearing from the intelligence community is that that evidence is really flakey.”-Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff to Colin Powell

In an interview with The Young Turks, on Current TV (the one that Al Gore sold to Al Jazeera) Wilkerson actually used the term false flag operation twice when talking about the claims of chemical weapons use in Syria.

He also said Israeli leaders are “inept” and “clueless” about the effects of their actions on the rest of the region.

“Israel bombed Syria tonight.”-Lindsey Graham, U.S. Senator from South Carolina

Unnamed U.S. intelligence officials announced that Israel launched an airstrike on a supposed Syrian chemical weapons depot. The unconfirmed announcement was first reported by CNN (Cable News Network).

Sources in Lebanon supposedly told U.S. officials that 16 IDF (Israeli Defense Force) aircraft violated Lebanese airspace on their way to Syria.

Unnamed Israeli officials implied they launched the airstrike because they thought Syrian WMDs were being taken by U.S. backed insurgents.

World War 3, African Front: Japan increasing troops in Sudan, U.K. increasing troops in Mali!

Japan currently has 350 troops in Sudan, working under the United Nations.  The UN has just asked Japan to send more Ground Self-Defense Force personnel.  Japan’s Senior Vice Minister for Cabinet Affairs, Yasutoshi Nishimura, has just started a weekend visit to Sudan, and will discuss the issue with UN and Sudanese officials.

In Libya, a police station in Benghazi was destroyed.  The same police station was attacked last week.  Also, militia groups have surrounded pro-U.S./European government buildings.  They will not lift their blockade until their demands are met.  They want all former officials connected to Muammar Gaddafi to be banned from holding government jobs.

In Democratic Republic of Congo, the March 23 (M23) organization has ended talks with UN officials because they’ve detected that they are about to be attacked by the newly created, and precedent setting, UN Intervention Brigade.  M23 spokesman, Stanislas Baleke, said they “…are waiting for the brigade. We are ready. Our men are on maximum alert.”

In Horn of Africa, Somalia, the government is about to forcefully relocate 80000 people.  A UN spokesman said even though the pro-U.S./European government is instigating the move, the UN will help.  The government claims the refugees will be moved to a larger concentration camp, I mean refugee camp.

In Nigeria, battles have been raging in the north eastern part of the country.  In the past week at least 200 people have been killed.

The United Kingdom announces it will send more Red Coats to Mali. They claim it’s part of the European Union Training Mission to train up pro-U.S./European forces in Mali, for a major offensive: “What we are here to do is form a battalion into a cohesive unit so that it’s ready to go on operations at the end of the 10 week package.”-Major Simon Holden, 1st Battalion Royal Irish Regiment

World War 3, Asian Front: More U.S. deaths! Proof opium production is supporting organizations outside Afghanistan!

30 April 2013/19 Jumada t-Tania 1434/10 Ordibehest 1391/21 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

In Helmand Province, Nahr-e-Saraj District, nine Afghan National Army (ANA) troops killed along with three United Kingdom (Scottish)/NATO Red Coats after a home made bomb exploded.  Six Red Coats were also wounded.  ISAF said: “Three International Security Assistance Force service members died following an improvised explosive device attack in southern Afghanistan.”  (notice ISAF doesn’t mention the ANA deaths)

In relation to the Red Coat deaths, apparently they were in an armored vehicle called a Mastiff.  Prime Minister David Cameron claims he will investigate why the Mujahideen have been successful in killing Red Coats riding in a Mastiff AFV.  Here’s a clue, the thing rolled over on them when the bomb went off!

In Kapisa Province, Mujahideen say they’ve shot down a NATO/ISAF attack helicopter in Alasay District.  A medivac ‘copter was later seen at the site of the crash.

In Herat Province, a NATO/ISAF recon drone (UAV) crashed in Shindand District.  Mujahideen say they’ve recovered the wreckage.

In Farah Province, Bakwa District, a NATO/ISAF supply convoy was ambushed.  Reports say ten security guards were killed, 12 wounded.  Three patrol vehicles and three fuelers were destroyed.

In Faryab Province, Khwaja Musa District, Mujahideen ambushed ANA vehicle patrol.  Nine ANA troops joined the Mujahideen.

This year’s opium eradication campaign is going badly for the Afghan National Army and Police (ANP).  The operation began 40 days ago and already 141  government personnel have been killed, 86 wounded.   According to Afghanistan’s deputy counter-narcotics minister, Ibrahim Azhar, the Afghan opium poppy industry is generating $70 billion USD per year, yet only 5% of that ends up in Afghanistan.  So who’s getting the lions share?

In Kunar Province, more claims that Pakistan fired artillery rockets into Afghanistan.  Local government officials say 37 rockets hit Dangdam District, no casualties reported.

In Badakhshan Province, provincial officials say they’ve won the release of ten ANA personnel.  They had been captured by Mujahideen in Wardoj District, back in March.  The capture of the ANA troops resulted in a major offensive launched by Afghan and U.S./NATO units, which failed to free the government soldiers.

In Parwan Province, a dramatic crash of a Boeing 747 cargo plane was captured on video.  The U.S. contractor operated plane had just taken off from Bagram airbase, and appears to stall out over a well traveled road.  The stall could be a sign the plane was overloaded, or the pilot had the plane at too steep of an angle starving the engines of air.  Everyone onboard was killed.  The plane was on its way to Dubai.

Also in Parwan Province, Afghan NDS officials claim they arrested two fueler drivers who place explosives on their fueler trucks, bound for Bagram airbase.

In Farah Province, in Petawak area between Bakwa and Gulistan districts, a NATO/ISAF supply convoy was ambushed.  Mujahideen claim they killed 25 security guards and wounded 10 others. The vehicles in the convoy were destroyed.

In Pakistan, a suicide bomber used a motorcycle bomb to kill at least eight people and wound 45 others.  Several diplomats from Afghanistan were among those killed, however, Pakistan police say the target of the attack was a Pakistani police official.

The New York Times reports that the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) has paid President Hamid Karzai tens of millions of U.S. tax dollars.  Karzai admitted to reporters that the Afghan National Security Council has been paid off with U.S. tax dollars for the past ten years. An unnamed U.S. government official said what I’ve been saying: “The biggest source of corruption in Afghanistan, was the United States.”

U.S. military officials admitted that an USAF Beechcraft MC-12 spy aircraft went down in Zabul Province the day before. Four U.S. aircrew were killed.

In Parwan Province, Siyagard District, Mujahideen attacked a checkpoint, which resulted in a three hours long battle.  Mujahideen captured the checkpoint, along with large amounts of weapons, ammo and radio equipment.

In Ghazni Province, Zana Khan District, the deputy police chief, and his two bodyguards were assassinated by explosion. Local Mujahideen announced “Today was our first day of the new operation….”

In Herat Province, Rabat-e-Sangi District, at midnight Mujahideen launched a two hours long battle against the Tor Ghondi logistics base.  Several people killed and wounded, eight fuelers destroyed and 10 other fuel trucks damaged.

In Daikondi Province, Mujahideen claim to have taken control of the Bandar District after a brief battle with Afghan government forces.

In Zabul Province, Mujahideen ended their four day battle for Nawbahar District.  Dozens killed and wounded.  Mujahideen say they broke off the engagement when U.S./NATO/ISAF attack helicopters showed up.

In Nangarhar Province, Chaparhar District, director of provincial development council, Malak Mohkam Khan, said a U.S. patrol open fired on a family working in a farm field.  Two adults and two children were killed.  Khan said the U.S. personnel claimed they were being shot at from the farm field.

World War 3, North American Front: Mexico kicks out U.S. ‘law enforcement’ agencies, blames them for drug war!

01 May 2013 (10:51 UTC-07 Tango)/20 Jumada t-Tania 1434/11 Ordibehest 1391/22 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

“Before, you had Agency A from the U.S. government that would deal with agency X, Y and Z from Mexico and then Agency B from the U.S. that would also deal with agency X, Y and Z from Mexico. Nobody knew what was going on!”-Sergio Alcocer, Mexico’s deputy foreign secretary for North American affairs

The new President of Mexico, Enrique Peña Nieto, is saying no to free access to Mexico by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security and its minions (FBI, CIA, DEA, ATF and border patrol).

What most people in the rule of law United States don’t know is that the Bush Jr lover, former Mexican President Felipe Calderon, gave free access to U.S. Homeland Security Department.  Most gringos don’t know that even their CIA had free range in Mexico, supposedly to fight drug lords.

The violence dramatically increased after the U.S. got directly involved in supposedly fighting the drug lords in Mexico.

Some sources say the Drug War started in 2000, when President Vicente Fox brought in military units to fight a drug lord in Nuevo Laredo, Tamaulipas.

The war escalated when President Felipe Calderon took over, and that’s when Homeland Security got directly involved.  And lets not forget the billions of dollars all you happy U.S. taxpayers gave to the Calderon regime, in the name of fighting the Drug War (money authorized by both the Bush Jr and Obama administrations).

Now after 13 years of the Drug War, in which at least six of those years overtly involved the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, more than 73000 people have been killed, 100000+ arrested/detained/captured and more than 27000 disappeared!!! (don’t forget the U.S. Operation Fast and Furious, that was one operation that became public, in which U.S. citizens were killed)

Keep in mind the majority of people killed were not drug dealers, but innocent civilians, including migrants from Central America, and dozens of U.S. citizens on vacation!

At one point Homeland Security, and the states of Arizona and Texas were scare mongering for National Guard troops to be sent into action.

And here’s an interesting stat; from 2008 to 2011 the number of ‘murders’ attributed to the Drug War skyrocketed by five times what they were in 2006 and 2007.  That happens to correspond to the increase in U.S. tax dollars the Obama administration gave to Calderon.

Remember gringos, this is what happens when your Big Bro/Sis Homeland Security ‘takes care of you’!

There have been numerous cases where local Mexican police were arrested for killing migrants, and some of those bad cops say they had direction from U.S. sources!

Now the new democratically elected government of Mexico demands that all U.S. Homeland Security minions pass through the Mexican Secretary of the Interior.

There is also a meeting planned between Nieto and Obama.  Nieto is sounding the same action plan that Fox sounded before losing favor with Bush Jr.  It just happens to be the same action plan Bill Clinton once called for: ‘It’s the economy, stupid!’

So after a decade of throwing billions of U.S. taxpayer money into a Drug War (that’s probably nothing but a big False Flag event), Mexican and U.S. officials are now thinking, mmmm, ‘maybe if people had lots of good paying jobs they wouldn’t need to turn to dealing drugs, or more importantly, they wouldn’t be angry with their Big Bro/Sis government?’

But don’t forget the warning that former U.S. Secretary of State Caspar Weinberger co-wrote with Peter Schweizer (called The Next War); if the Mexican government fails to toe the line with U.S. policies then War were Declared!  (several wars warned about in The Next War have come to pass)

World War 3, Economic Front: Demand for fuel way down in Japan! Yet prices going up?

01 May 2013 (09:17 UTC-07 Tango)/20 Jumada t-Tania 1434/11 Ordibehest 1391/22 Ding-Si (3rd month) 4711

Japan’s Natural Resources and Energy Agency reporting a big decrease in the number of gas stations.  Almost 20 years ago there were more than 60000 gas stations in Japan, now there are 35000.

Gas station operators blame falling demand and increased operating costs, making the business of selling fuel unprofitable. Yet fuel prices go up for Japanese drivers.

Japan buys its crude oil based on the more expensive Brent Crude price, which has been way higher than U.S. (WTI) Crude.  Some reports say that Japan pays as much as three times what other countries pay, because Japan makes a lot of ‘spot’ purchases.

Another problem is the 11 March 2011 nuclear disaster.  Japan has been forced to switch to other forms of generating electricity, mainly petroleum based.  So while demand for fuel for vehicles might be down, demand for fuel for power stations is up.

According to the U.S. Energy Information Agency, Japan is now the number one importer of liquified natural gas, number two importer of coal and third biggest importer of crude oil.

The result is that the Japanese are paying a lot more for utilities.   Yet Japanese utility companies are losing money!

The major power companies of Japan reported they lost $20 billion USD from 2011 to 2012, and they’ve lost another $16 billion from 2012 to 2013!  So they’ve jacked up their rates, some by as much as 8.5%.

Looks like the only money makers here are the oil companies.

The Russian Foreign Ministry says a Russian Nordwind Airlines airliner was fired at with two missiles, as it flew over Syria.

The Syrian government reported to Russian officials that U.S. backed al-Qaeda insurgents launched two ground to air missiles at the airliner.  The crew of the airliner confirmed they noticed “battle action on the ground“.  There were 159 people on the plane.

The plane was enrout from Egypt to Russia’s republic of Tatarstan.  The aircrew performed evasive maneuvers and the missiles exploded near the aircraft.

The U.S. Department of Defense admits yet another contractor ripped off U.S. taxpayers!  This time the taxpayers were overcharged $757 million USD!  The contractor to blame is Swiss based Supreme Foodservice.  The capitalist company is also accused of ripping off British taxpayers. For some reason, the U.S. agency in charge of contracts, Defense Logistics Agency, failed to do their job:  “This has to be one of the prime poster childs for a government contract spun out of control!”– John Mica, U.S. Representative from Florida

In Zabul Province, Shah Joy District, a U.S. aircraft went down.  At least four personnel killed.  U.S. officials deny it was shot down.  The majority of occupation personnel in Zabul Province are U.S.

While the Red Coat United Kingdom is pulling out troops from Afghanistan, the Ministry of Defence revealed that they are now conducting drone (UAV) attacks on Afghanistan.

Mujahideen groups have announced the start of a new offensive, called operation Khalid bin Walid (a reference to the Mujahideen defeat of the Soviet Union puppet government in 1992/Mujahideen Victory Day).  Diplomatic institutions and airbases will be the main targets, and suicide bombers will be used.

In Faryab Province, provincial government sources say Mujahideen killed at least five local cops, and captured 15.   The provincial governor said there was an estimated 300 Mujahideen involved in the attack.

Logar Province: The U.S. Army revealed that a Blackhawk helicopter pilot and a co-pilot were killed on 23 April, in Pul-I-Alam District.  This happened to take place on the same day that Mujahideen claimed they shot down a U.S./NATO ‘copter, killing U.S. personnel and capturing most of the Turkish, Uzbek and Afghan passengers.  The claim that it was a U.S. ‘copter has been denied by U.S. media. The U.S. Army refuses to confirm Mujahideen claims, saying only that the two personnel died from “wounds sustained from enemy indirect fire”.

The Oklahoma Army National Guard’s 149th General Support Aviation Battalion held deployment ceremonies. They’re going to Afghanistan.

Kandahar Province: It was revealed that back on 23 April at least 50 U.S./NATO aircraft (mainly helicopters) were “severely damaged” by a massive hailstorm at Kandahar airbase.

In Takhar Province, six local cops were shot by one of their own.  This is becoming a standard MO, as the cops were poisoned before they were shot.

In Logar Province, Mujahideen are asking for fellow Mujahideen being held captive by Afghan/U.S. forces to be freed, in exchange for the freedom of the Turkish-NATO/Afghan personnel captured on 22 April, when their helicopter went down.

In Kandahar Province, local government officials say they’ve captured eight militants from Pakistan. Also, in Panjwai District, locals attacked Afghan government forces as they tried to burn an opium poppy field.  One Afghan cop wounded.

A former contractor for a U.S. AID project has been sentenced to two and a half years in an Afghan prison, and a $9500 fine.  He was convicted in Afghan court of embezzlement and forgery.  The investigation into the case involved investigators from U.S. AID.

In Kandahar Province, four kids were killed, one wounded, after a roadside bomb exploded.  In Maiwand District, nine government de-miners (removers of landmines) were captured by Mujahideen.

The United Nations says civilians casualties have increased 30% compared to the same time last year.

After first reporting they were on their way out of Afghanistan, Sweden has changed its mind. Swedish officials say they will now keep at least 200 troops in Afghanistan after the 2014 NATO/ISAF pullout date.

Also, U.S. NATO ally Turkey says they will keep all their troops currently in Afghanistan, after the U.S./NATO/ISAF 2014 pullout.

The United States announced it will increase drone (UAV) strikes after the 2014 pullout date.

The commander of Russia’s Airborne Assault Forces, Colonel General Vladimir Shamanov, said $300 million USD will be spent on creating a fifth tactical-strategic command to support the New World Order’s fight against ‘terrorism’.

The fifth element forces will consist of rapid reaction forces and a separate mobile military command.

The two to three years plan involves training up Russia’s army and navy units in military intelligence gathering, to be used in United Nations operations as well as Russian ops.
