Transcript for 12/9/24: WHY SO SYRIA? HOLY BOOK VENGEANCE

Almost everything that’s wrong in the world starts from an implacable resistance to the existence of a state of consciousness. Denial of the fact that every new human life born into this world is a divine spark, a fecund manifestation of limitless potential.

A denial of the fact that higher consciousness is actually the default position of humanity – not a distant goal only attainable by a dedicated minority.

So many remain in a state of resistance to their innate connection with the source of life, thus sealing themselves in a well-constructed prison. Something greatly encouraged via the dumbing down priorities enforced by the architects of global control.

Religious institutions created within this control system teach that only some outside savior can rescue humanity from the ubiquitous spread of evil – of which they themselves are the prime perpetrators.

It is the inability to throw off a long-existing fixation with this form of irrational dogma that has brought the world so perilously close to the brink today.

The world is still grasping the speed of what can be seen as apocalyptic events in recent days, and the collapse of a ruling dynasty in Syria that laid waste to the country during a catastrophic civil war. But the implications are also quickly sinking in — and not least the prospect of more upheaval and violence as groups tussle for control.

This grand deception, sold to we the people under the moniker ‘the one truth’, leads to senior representatives of leading religious institutions and Political chairs averting their eyes, as millions are murdered due to fearsome divisions created by the mass indoctrination of mankind to a grossly distorted interpretation of the road to salvation.

Religious institutions feign shock, but do nothing to expose and put an end to the slaughter of the innocents with the escalating wars ; the pedophilia and prostitution laid on for their own priests; the crass power-play of politicians; the gross materialistic indulgence of profit obsessed corporations; the cowardly posturing of their own brotherhood and the anti-life politics of control of the deep state.

The hypocrisy is complete, since – while turning away from reality – they present their saviors as supreme actors in defense of life, justice and truth.

Religious institutions are subservient to the authority of the State, just as they are subservient to their very own gods – each of which is proclaimed as ‘the one and only true savior of mankind’ and therefore permanently at war with other challengers for that title.

So deeply has this ideological dogma infested the minds, bodies and spirits of humanity that, over the centuries, it has provoked a thoughtless submission to authority figures as well as a plague of passivity and the denial of the basic responsibility that comes with being a trustee of the health and welfare of planet earth.

The protagonists of this disease have rolled our world onto its back – while simultaneously pleading ‘not guilty’ to reducing divine sparks to lifeless expressions of fear, obedience and cowardice.

Looks like we are in a series of multiple wars on all fronts -- and only the historians have the luxury of calling it World War III. 

When it comes to apocalyptic events in the world , there are moments in history that spark the imagination toward apocalyptic themes. I had a listener write me one time and tell me "I don't care about those little skirmishes in he middle east, they happen all the time, but when Damascus falls , I will then listen and wait for the coming of the lord."

Well, I can understand the sentiment as I have read the bible and know of what he speaks of.

However the apocalyptic scriptures hat are usually set for the last chapter if the bible is found in Isaiah.

It reads : "See, Damascus will no longer be a city but will become a heap of ruins."

Pretty clear, but we do not know how it is destroyed exactly.

Many interpretations suggest that the prophecy might refer to a specific event in the ancient past or could be seen as a symbol of judgment against nations. Others believe it could relate to future conflicts in the region, given the ongoing instability in Syria and surrounding areas.

But further we read in Jeremiah that Damascus will be meet a huge fiery attack. Therefore her young men shall fall in her streets, and all the men of war shall be cut off in that day, saith the LORD of hosts. And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Damascus, and it shall consume the palaces of the leaders.

In what seems like out of nowhere, years of stalemate between the Syrian government and the terrorists known by mainstream media channels and Western governments as the “Syrian opposition” was broken by a massive push on the part of terrorist forces toward Aleppo. After capturing numerous areas surrounding the city, Aleppo itself was overrun.

It seemed like no one saw the terrorist onslaught coming and, when they did, it doesn’t appear that anyone – Syria, Hezbollah, Iranian-backed militias, or Russian forces – could stop them. The terrorists took only hours to capture what it took Syrian forces years to liberate.

Now, with the city of Aleppo once again teeming with the extremists of ISIS, Al-Nusra Front, and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham, these same terrorists are now knocking loudly on the doors of Damascus and Homs as well. Indeed, the Syrian government has not found itself in such dire straits since the beginning of the conflict in 2011. Once again, Western governments and mainstream media outlets are discussing the potential “fall of Assad” almost as if the “fall” is a foregone conclusion.

As Bashar Al-Assad the leader of Syria fled to Moscow, the looters started raiding the presidential palace and people took to the streets of Damascus to celebrate his demise. The Syrian president had tried to hang on until the bitter end, still desperately sending an SOS to anyone who would listen, including Donald Trump. 

Assad had managed to endure the popular uprising against him for more than 13 years. But the message from his one-time allies and foes was clear: You’re on your own. 

Russia, which had saved his skin back in 2015, only offered him sanctuary this time. Iran turned its back on him by saying in not so many words that he had brought it all on himself. 

Multiple Arab and US officials told Bloomberg that a power vacuum could now be dangerous. Memories of Muammar Qaddafi’s Libya and Saddam Hussein in Iraq loom large in the region: In both countries, those entrenched rulers were swept aside in brief moments of euphoria, only for the countries to descend into deeper turmoil.

Russia has military bases in Syria and will seek to protect its interests. But the Kremlin is occupied by its war in Ukraine. Iran, which has traded direct attacks with Israel in recent months, is also weakened. Arab officials, though, don’t expect the Islamic Republic to give up its influence in Syria without a fight. 

On Sunday morning, rebels seized control of the television station and hailed the “fall of the criminal Assad regime.” Assad decided to step down and left the country, Russia’s foreign ministry later said.

It unleashed a political situation in which much remains uncertain – not least the nature of the new government forming in Damascus. It’s also unclear whether that leadership will be able to govern the war-torn country at all.

A collapse of Syria’s government might lead to the rise of something even worse.

First, Saddam Hussein death left a lot of political instability in Iraq. Basically, Iraq lived what Libya lived after Kadafi's death. Both of Libya and Iraq didn’t recover and they are still on a constant decline.

Again 

The United States and its allies were pouring billions of dollars into arming pro-democracy rebels fighting to overthrow President Bashar al-Assad. But the militias that posed the greatest threat to Damascus were led by religious extremists bent on turning Syria into an Islamist caliphate.

What if Assad fell, analysts asked, only to be replaced by groups that Washington regarded as terrorists? The scenario was given a name: the “catastrophic success.” 

The risk of a wider regional conflict that could directly draw in the United States, along with other countries.

But would we become the policeman again? I suspect that we will not be the policeman but we may see ourselves getting all intimate with Al Qaeda, Isreal and Turkey -- which is one hell of a combination.

But now according to authorities that the Islamist fanatics have changed their ways. 

They now call themselves Hayat Tahrir al-Sham-- but does changing the brand name change the attitude? Or the actions that were ones considered fanatical and terrorist?

While HTS claims that it has changed, some of Syria’s neighbors remain skeptical.

“They may have evolved, but their essential ideology is still the same,” said one Middle Eastern official, speaking on the condition of anonymity to discuss military assessments, as reports of fresh HTS conquests streamed in late last week.

Biden or his Warhawks know exactly what he is doing — or those who are pulling his strings are having their political Pinocchio performing the way they like.

The fundamental question is whether this retaliatory attack will lead to escalation, including an Israeli counter-attack on Iran.

Why do we have to war when Israel will do it for us?

This appears to be part of the plan called TIRANNT.

“Theater Iran Near Term”, a scenario of waging a war against Iran following the defeat of Iraq and Syria was the unspoken concept. Under the auspices of US Central Command, TIRANNT focused on both “Near Term” following the Iraq war as well as “Out-Year” (signifying sometime in the future) scenarios for war with Iran and Syria ” …including all aspects of a major combat operation, from mobilization and deployment of forces through postwar stability operations after regime change.”

The 2003 decision to target Iran under TIRANNT as well as all subsequent endeavors and “secret plans” were part of the broader Middle East military roadmap. Already during the Clinton administration, US Central Command (USCENTCOM) had formulated in 1995 under the doctrine of “Dual Containment” “in war theater plans” to invade first Iraq and then Iran.

A new bloody phase has opened up in Syria, as if it was ever possible to contemplate another one in that tormented land. Silly terms such as “moderate” are being paired with “rebels”, a coupling that can also draw all kinds of criticism.

Are these moves making Biden the worst President since Nixon? Voters have delivered a devastating verdict on Joe Biden's time in office, branding him the worst president in almost 50 years.

The poll results are extremely interesting because they partially reflect America’s profound partisan divide 1006 registered voters polled, everyone thought Biden was totally awful.

Some 44 percent placed him as one of the worst two, while only 14 percent placed him in the top two, giving him a net score of 30 points underwater.

That was worse than Nixon, who came out with negative 25, and Donald Trump, with negative 15.

The thing about Biden’s presidency is that he wasn’t a victim of circumstances.

Even Carter could be said to have been a victim of the Iranian Revolution, although it’s hard to imagine anyone handling it worse than he did.

Biden is unique in that he deliberately created the circumstances that made his presidency so disastrous. It was his affirmative, proudly touted policies that drove inflation, opened the border, and led to so much American weakness on the world stage that two potential “WWIII starting points” erupted. It was his values, his weaknesses, his corruption, and his senility that got moved events.

I would hope that History would be cruel to Biden -- and that all of the things that happened during his tenure will be seen as a fiasco, from inflation to escalating war. Also allowing the patients to run the Asylum.

I want his legacy to be tarnished in his own mind. Anyone who has wreaked such terrible havoc on this once proud nation deserves to be horribly aware of the disdain in which his countrymen hold him.

He was no hero. no peacemaker. He used the security state to apprehend and silence his critics and held on to the presidency even though those around him knew he was unfit to continue. He leveled the economy because of Covid and leaves behind a legacy of blood shed -- because of the wars he and his NATO buddies created. 

We read or hear almost nothing about the dominant backers in this latest round of bloodletting in Syria. 

We are told about the advances of one organization in particular: Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an outgrowth of Jabhat al-Nusra, a former al-Qaeda affiliate. While the urgent reporting stressed the suddenness of it all, HTS has been playing in the jihadi playground since 2017, suggesting that it is far from a new and improved organization keen to get in on the kill.

HTS is the biggest group in what is dubbed Operation Deterrence of Aggression. 

HTS has a series of goals. It purports to be an indigenous movement keen on eliminating the Assad regime, establishing Islamic rule and expelling all Iranian militias from Syrian soil. But megalomania among zealots will always out, and Abu Mohammed al-Jawlani, their leader has shown himself a convert to an even broader cause, evidenced by this remark: “with this spirit… we will not only reach Damascus, but, Allah permitting, Jerusalem will be awaiting our arrival”.

Oh yes I am sure they are clearing the way for Holy Book vengeance against Israel.

So the babble about God, apocalypse and theocracy will be happily supplemented by covert operations and arms sales, which of course pays homage to the demon Mammon.

But I am told it all works out in the end -- well, it is the beginning I worry about.
