Read appropriately, it could be said that the U.S. has had one “Middle East” policy, since 2000, and the U.S. State Department is not it’s architect, just one of the “international” agencies through whom behind-the-scenes “world planners” are operating, with THEIR operatives placed where ever, in whatever institutions they are needed, for those plans, including the institutions of various governments, our own included, or institutions are created and appropriately labeled, for them to carryout their assigned roles.
To see this coming one only had to ask, at the start of the “Syrian opposition call for Assad to step down”, why then?, what was new?, was it just because it was the season?, had Assad just previously become more brutal? (NO!), had is government suddenly become “worse”, (NO!!), so why at that time??
Because forces outside of Syria, forces outside of the “Syrian opposition” decided it was time. You think they don’t have something they are expecting for themselves? And, given what you now understanding about whose paying for the “Syrian revolt” at this time, now that you know who are the movers and shakers behind it, where do you see “Syrian” policy vis-a-vis Israel going when the dust clears?
What did the Guardian miss? (or leave out on purpose). Anglo-American interests are not the only interests represented in, or providing funding to many of the so called “democracy projects” directed at Syria. There is big Middle East money and persons, with stakes in many of the institutes mentioned, and its not Iranian either.
So, is it even really an “Anglo-American” project, or are they just being played, just being given the driver seat in a game they don’t own?
“Anglo-American interests”
Brazilo-italio,,,Canadian-indonesian, Paki-Argentinian, etc.
American interests and British interests are not the same, except in the view of our masters. Britain has always had very different interests than the USA, and seeks to drag us into their policy goals. They love spending American lives, equipment and cash to do what they deem critical.
This is especially true in light of Britain becoming an Orwellian totalitarian state that has given itself over to the Moslems. Our interests have never been more divergent.
