World War 3, East Asian Front: Japan shoots self in foot, says there was no World War 2, while prepping for invasions with U.S.!

24 April 2013 (13:04 UTC-07 Tango)/13 Jumada t-Tania 1434/04 Ordibehest 1391/15 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe keeps pissing off China and Korea, this time saying there is “…no clear definition of an invasion internationally…” by Japan at the beginning of what is called the Second World War.

In the mid 1930s to early 1940s Japan invaded mainland east Asia from Russia, Manchuria, China all the way down to Vietnam (Indochina).  Now Japanese leaders are denying it ever happened!

On top of that the Japanese government is considering issuing new school books which will claim many islands lying between Japan, Korea, China and Russia, to belong to Japan, as well as change the history of the Second World War to claim Japan was fighting a defensive war from the start. (most Japanese don’t even know about their attack on Pearl Harbor).

This move will destroy efforts to create a military pact between Japan and South Korea against North Korea.

Prime Minister Abe, just yesterday, threatened China with military action if any Chinese set foot on any of the islands Japan considers theirs: “….we have made sure that if there is an instance where there is an intrusion into our territory or it seems that there could be landing on the islands then we will deal with it strongly.”

Today, Japan’s Kyodo news agency revealed that Japan has conducted war games with U.S. forces on an island off the California coast.  The scenario involved Japan invading and capturing an island!

Here’s what U.S. officials said about the whole thing: “Our position is that we don’t take a position on territorial issues. In the case of Japan……we do have certain treaty obligations with Japan that we would honor.”-U.S. Army General Martin Dempsey

World War 3, Africa Front: Arab Spring in Tunis part of CIA Israeli al Qaeda recruiting scam!

Ever since the so called Arab Spring ‘democracy’ revolution in the African country of Tunis (Tunisia), Tunisians say thousands of young men, women and even children have been recruited by the U.S. CIA, in league with Turkey, Greece and Israel to go and fight and die for al Qaeda in the U.S. backed war in the West Asian country of Syria!

“I know that Turkey has facilitated my son’s entry to Syria. I blame the Turkish authorities for the sorrow of Tunisian and Syrian mothers. One of our youths has left for Syria with his wife and daughter. They were sold. Is this what they call jihad?”-Tunisian grandmother protesting recruitment of Tunisians for False Flag war in Syria

“We are poor people. My son did not have money or a passport to travel to Turkey, but he has been recruited by people who have financial resources.”-Tunisian father protesting False Flag recruitment

“International networks are recruiting young people…Qatar and other countries are serving the interests of America and Israel.  We are aware that the zionists and their allies are conspiring against the resistance movement in Syria….to occupy more land.”-Monji Rahoui, Tunisian Member of Parliament

To understand the Israeli conspiracy that’s being called Arab Spring, research Oded Yinon, a zionist who actually published the basic plan back in 1982.

World War 3, North American Front: False Flag Project Smooth, “no information” that Iran “sponsored” terrorists!

23 April 2013 (00:38 UTC-07 Tango)/12 Jumada t-Tania 1434/03 Ordibehest 1391/14 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

Bullshit U.S. main streamer media has been running rampant with claims that Iran was behind the foiled (False Flag) terrorist attack in Canada.

Canadian Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP) did not make such a statement!

Investigators found the al Qaeda in Iraq flag on the internet profile page of one of the suspects.  At a press conference one of the Mounties stated that they thought the suspects were getting “support” from “al Qaeda elements in Iran”. However, the Mountie stressed: “Now I can tell you that there’s no information to indicate that these attacks were state sponsored.”-James Malizia, RCMP

It was revealed that the RCMP and the U.S. FBI had been tracking the alleged terrorists since August 2012.

Fact: As I’ve posted before, al Qaeda is the sworn enemy of Iran!  Al Qaeda has declared all Shia as heretics to be killed, Iran is majority Shia!

If al Qaeda is operating in Iran it is as a U.S. supported irregular force, to attack Iranians.  There have been such terrorist attacks against Iranian nuclear scientist over the past decade!

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.

Government & Religious Evil: Israel reveals their plans for Holocaust against non-Jews!!!

“The idea that views non-Jews as having equal rights in the state goes against the opinion of the Torah…”-IDF version of Laws of the Mezuzah

Last year the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) approved a book called Laws of the Mezuzah.  It was endorsed and written by IDF rabbis.

Basically the book tells IDF members that non-Jews (Gentiles; Christians, Muslims etc) living in Israel do not have the same political or economic rights as Jews.

The book also says that doorways/buildings should be marked with mezuzahs (a container with a verse from the Torah), so that IDF personnel can quickly identify who is not a Jew: “….the military establishment must see to it that mezuzahs are installed….”-IDF Laws of the Mezuzah

Even Israeli media sources are saying the IDF version of Laws of the Mezuzah is “showing non-Jews the door”.   (sounds like NAZI stuff to me, and all you happy taxpayers in the U.S. are paying to support this kind-o-stuff)

“The era of interference by other powers or hemispheric regions is outdated…..we are democratic societies that’re united and strong.”-Antonio Patriota, Foreign Minister of Brazil

A couple of days after Bolivian officials said they had evidence that the United States was about to overthrow the newly elected President of Venezuela, Brazil has stepped up and basically told the U.S. to stay the hell out!

Venezuela is considered to have the fairest election system in the World, while the democracy of the U.S. is now questioned.

Antonio Patriota also revealed that U.S. Secretary John Kerry has asked to have a meeting with Brazilian officials concerning Iran and Syria. He blasted current U.S. tactics in Syria: “We are not in favor of unilateral sanctions……the truth is that there are destabilizing elements associated with fundamentalist agendas. We find it worrying that certain actors have a willingness to arm the factions.”

He also hinted that U.S. President Barack Obama was planning a trip to Brazil by the end of the year.

World War 3: Boston Bombings blowback for U.S. war in Syria! Explains unprecedented manhunt! Assad warned of ‘rebels turning on the West’!

20 April 2013 (12:14 UTC-07 Tango)/09 Jumada t-Tania 1434/31 Farvardin 1391/11 Bing-Chen (3rd month) 4711

“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.”-Bashar Hafez al-Assad, President of Syria

“Any attempt to make a link between Chechnya and the Tsarnaevs, if they are guilty, is pointless. They grew up in the U.S., their views and beliefs were formed there. The roots of evil must be searched for in America.”-Ramzan Kadyrov, President of Chechnya

The U.S. main streamer media might like to tout the Russia/Chechnya connection concerning the two suspects killed and wounded on Friday, but, what they don’t tell you is that the U.S. has been actively recruiting Chechens to go and fight in Syria!

At the beginning of 2012 it was revealed by Saudi Arabia that the U.S./European/Israeli/Saudi led insurgency in Syria included large numbers of Chechens from Russia: “Up to 6 thousand foreign volunteers are fighting on the side of the Syrian opposition, and among them are Chechens according to Saudi intelligence…….According to an AFP source in Riyadh, in these brigades, under the flag of Al-Qaeda, are citizens of Algeria, Egypt, Tunisia, Saudi Arabia, and also Chechyna.”-Gazeta 

The U.S. backed insurgent group Jaish al-Muhajireen wa Ansar (aka Muhajireen Brigade), fighting in Syria, was formed by a Chechen known as Abu Omar al Chechen.

Also, the al Qaeda linked and U.S. backed Jabhat an-Nuṣrah li-Ahl ash-Shām (aka Al Nusrah Front) is made up of Chechens.  According to the Pakistan Christian Post, most of the dirty work in the major operations conducted by insurgents are being done by Chechens.  The article accuses Turkey, Georgia and the U.S. CIA of being behind the recruitment, training and deployment of Chechens in Syria!

Russian officials say they’ve known for awhile now that the U.S. is actively recruiting Chechens to fight an illegal war in Syria.

The mother of the two suspects (by the way they are U.S. citizens, born in Kyrgyzstan) says that ever since they moved to the United States, in 2002, the FBI had been hounding them: “They [FBI] used to come, they used to talk to me…they were controlling him, they were controlling his every step…and now they say that this is a terrorist act! Never ever is this true, my sons are innocent!”-Zubeidat Tsarnaeva

Of note, the father and mother of the two suspects ended up moving back to Russia, because of repeated harassment and even arrests on charges of damage to property.

This is starting to look like a classic case of federal officials trying to recruit American ‘Muslims’ to go fight a U.S. backed Jihad against the legitimate government of Syria, only instead of going to Syria these guys decided to turn their U.S. combat training against the United States.  Classic blowback!

This could explain the unprecedented manhunt, because the federales knew who they were dealing with because the evil federales are the ones who trained them!

Here’s a probable reason why this U.S. operation failed.  The family might be originally from Chechnya, but they claim they are not devout Muslims. It was only recently, after being approached by federales, that one of the  suspects suddenly became serious about it: “He was not devout. But just recently, maybe two years ago, he started praying about five times a day….”-Maret Tsarnaeva, suspects’ aunt

Their uncle, Ruslan Tsarni, told U.S. media that he stopped talking to them in 2009, because of their sudden infatuation with Islam.  Tsarni said that he was told they were being influenced by a ‘convert’ to Islam.  Classic FBI/CIA recruitment Modus Operandi!

A former Russian special forces veteran thinks the whole thing (Boston Bombings) was intentional, to distract from, and even justify crimes committed by the U.S. federales in other countries: “Putting a young Chechen in those shoes was top notch professionalism in distracting everyone from the true identity and motives of the planner. The executors were chosen to confuse the American public and simultaneously untie the White House’s hands in a way that would justify a departure from the rhetoric of non-involvement in military action on foreign territories.”-Aleksey Filatov, Russian ‘Alpha’ Special Forces team-veteran

“We do know in the UN which are the two battalions. Interestingly, one of them was trained by the Americans, that’s what the American ambassador himself told me!”-Zainab Hawa Bangura, UN special representative on sexual violence

United Nations officials investigated mass rape cases in the Democratic Republic of Congo (not to be confused with Republic of Congo).  126 women were raped, and UN investigators confirmed it was carried out by two DRC government battalions, one of which was trained by U.S. forces in 2010.

Recently rebels succeeded in taking control of DRC.  Even though it’s been proven that crimes against humanity were indeed being carried out by government troops, the UN created the first ever military force (Intervention Brigade) to invade DRC and remove the rebels from control.
