“The demonization of bin Laden and of al-Qaeda for the attacks of 9/11, which were carried out by the CIA, American neo-cons in the Pentagon and the Mossad, further complicates understanding what has been taking place in Syria. Al-Qaeda was a creation of the CIA. …. current US foreign policy in attacking al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, but supporting it in Syria, is inconsistent and even bizarre.“ – Professor James Fetzer

• Prof. James H. Fetzer: Washington Overtly Supporting Al-Qaeda in Syria! 
  by Kourosh Ziabari, http://www.veteranstoday.com/ 
  American philosopher and political author James H. Fetzer believes that the United States is openly supporting Al-Qaeda and the extremist Salafist and Takfiri groups in Syria and equipping the rebels and insurgents inside the country with sophisticated weapons and arms.

  “The Assad forces are making great progress in putting down the artificial uprising, which gained public sympathy because of false flag massacres of villages in Syria, which were blamed on the government but appear to have been committed by mercenaries and others, just as the UN itself has concluded that the alleged use of chemical weapons in small quantities appears to have been done, not by the government, but by the rebels,” said Fetzer in an exclusive interview with Fars News Agency.

  James H. Fetzer is a retired philosophy professor at the University of Minnesota Duluth. He has written several books on the philosophy of science, artificial intelligence, evolution and also tens of political articles about the 9/11 events and the U.S. foreign policy. Fetzer’s articles have appeared on a number of print and online publications including Veterans Today and Press TV.

  In the wake of the ongoing crisis in Syria and the continued confrontation between the government forces and the foreign mercenaries, FNA has conducted an exclusive interview with Prof. Fetzer. What follows is the text of the interview.
  –
  Q: Several Arab countries have dispatched mercenaries and fighters to take part in the ongoing battle against the government of President Bashar al-Assad. In what ways do these countries benefit from instability and insecurity in Syria? Why are they sending terrorists and fighters to Syria?
  –
  A: That Saudi Arabia and Qatar are both involved when they are both allies of the United States yet support diverse objectives reflects the complexity of the situation. Qatar supports the rise of the Muslim Brotherhood, which came to power in Egypt and Tunisia, but where the Egyptian military coup has now stemmed that ascent. The U.S.-Saudi alliance appears to be intended to minimize the influence of the Brotherhood, while creating a counter-balance to the influence of Iran in the Middle East, which Israel also supports.
  –
  While the Brotherhood was founded in 1928 and may be the best organized and most politically powerful Arab political movement, its participation in the attempt to assassinate Gamal Abdel Nasser led to a political crackdown in Egypt, where many of its followers found refuge in Saudi Arabia. After supporting the overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya, the Saudis appear to be increasingly concerned about an increase in its influence, which they fear will promote Shiite interests at the expense of the Sunnis.
  –
  The Persian Gulf Cooperation Council–which was created to fashion a common plan among the Sunni monarchies of Saudi Arabia, UAE, Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar and Oman–to resist Iran and support the Syrian rebels–has its own internal conflicts, where Saudi Arabia and Qatar are especially concerned that the Assad regime might prevail and the influence of Shiite Iran be enhanced. It therefore appears that a mix of religious and political motives have led to their involvement with and support of the Syrian rebels.
  –
  Q: There are certain Western states who are opposed to the involvement of Iran in the peace talks to end the crisis in Syria. Why do these countries don’t accept the fact that Iran is an essential and integral part of solution for bringing to an end the two-year long unrest in Syria?
  –
  A: The United States may be attempting to replay the events in Afghanistan by providing weapons to the rebels, where Stinger missiles, especially, were instrumental in shooting down large numbers of its helicopters and planes and driving the Soviets out of Afghanistan, which is well portrayed in the film, “Charlie Wilson’s Role”, apart from omitting the crucial role of Osama bin Laden, who was “our man in Afghanistan”. The demonization of bin Laden and of al-Qaeda for the attacks of 9/11, which were carried out by the CIA, American neo-cons in the Pentagon and the Mossad, further complicates understanding what has been taking place in Syria. Al-Qaeda was a creation of the CIA.
  –
  For Western nations to oppose the participation of Iran in peace talks is completely absurd. Since important elements of the Syrian rebel force have openly allied themselves with al-Qaeda, current US foreign policy in attacking al-Qaeda in Afghanistan, but supporting it in Syria, is inconsistent and even bizarre. This case represents the kinds of complications that are compounded by one set of lies (about 9/11) becoming intertwined by another – in relation to Syria and Iran. The duplicity of the US media makes it very difficult, if not impossible, for the American public to understand the depths of duplicity of US involvement in the Middle East, which is predicated upon lies nested within lies.
