- NYTimes Urges Full-Scale War on Syria and Iraq
by Stephen Lendman, http://sjlendman.blogspot.com/
Peace is a dirty word for Times editors – even during the holiday period, promoting greater war than already, urging a new authorization for unlimited military force – instead of accurately telling readers what’s going on and the urgency for change.
–
Times editors exclusively serve powerful US-led Western monied and political interests. They’re on the wrong side of virtually all geopolitical issues mattering most – none more important than war and peace.
–
On the one hand, they accused Congress of “sit(ting) out the war against ISIS.” On the other, they highlighted nearly $60 billion appropriated for war on Syria and Iraq, without explaining it has nothing to do with combating ISIS or other terrorist groups – everything to do with supporting them against sovereign governments.
–
US wars aim for unchallenged hegemony, all independent governments marked for regime change – no matter the cost in human lives and misery. Washington wants vassal regimes it controls replacing them.
–
ISIS, Al Qaeda, Jabhat al-Nusra and various other splinter groups are US recruited, funded, armed, trained and directed imperial foot soldiers. Congress appropriates billions of dollars annually supporting them – along with unknown billions more in black CIA and other budgets doing the same thing, plus enormous ongoing mischief on a global scale.
–
All post-WW II American wars were and remain illegal against nations threatening no others – endorsed by Times editors, now urging escalated Middle East conflicts instead of demanding US naked aggression end, along with cutting off all support for ISIS and other terrorist groups.
–
The way to defeat them is by ending support. Without it they can’t exist. Instead, Times editors accused Congress of “sidestepping” its responsibility by “failing to debate and approve an authorization” for unrestrained, unlimited war.
–
Would they be willing to send their sons and daughters to fight it – potentially sacrifice their lives and well-being for imperial aims? Chicken hawks have different standards – along with no respect for fundamental rule of law principles.

On Morning Joe, Carl Bernstein says that because he’s Jewish, he could be permitted to reveal on national television that “Jewish” neo-cons were responsible for persuading President George W. Bush into starting an “insane” war against Iraq.
– - “The war in Iraq was conceived by 25 neoconservatives, most of them Jewish, who are pushing President Bush to change the course of history.”

“A new generation has its hands on the tiller of power…Jewish neocons have emerged as the Pentagon’s Paladins…Most striking is how unmentionable this is in the liberal press…These well-placed hawks are Jewish-Americans and it is their hardcore Zionism that is shaping American foreign policy. Zionism is fast becoming a poisoned chalice…There is real madness here, but who will stop it?”
