US “back in the saddle again” with Al-Qaeda-Wahabi Terrorists in Syria

Following the systematic elimination of the Al-Qadea leadership that wrestled control of Al-Qadea away from the US Intelligence Agencies, the US has embarked in a intense redeployment of Al-Qaeda through-out MENA as an key component in fighting its “democracy wars”. All the while the US conveniently uses Al-Qaeda’s “anti-western terrorist reputation” to provoke fear in the Western Public in help facilitate public support of its strategic aims of expanded hegemonic domination of MENA. – Phlipn

US Openly helping Al-Qaeda Terrorists infiltrate Syrian rebels
27 July, 2012 – JNN

JNN 27 July 2012 Damascus : The United States Helping Al-Qaeda militants and other Wahabi terrorists in Syria to help the country’s armed rebels overthrow the government of President Bashar al-Assad.

“The evidence is mounting that Syria has become a magnet for Wahabi extremists, including those operating under the banner of al-Qaeda,” the website Antiwar Website cited a New York Times report as saying.

The article attributed the escalating presence of militants in Syria over the past days to “a convergence with the sectarian tensions across the country’s long border with Iraq.”

According to chairman of the US House Intelligence Committee Rep. Mike Rogers, as many as a quarter of the many rebel groups in Syria see themselves as al-Qaeda offshoots.

The growing al-Qaeda presence seems to disturb neither Washington, nor its allies in their decision to send communication gear, military intelligence, and arms to militias in Syria.

Washington’s silence on the July 18 bombing in Damascus drew sharp criticism from Moscow, where Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov blamed the US for “directly justifying terrorism.”

“In other words, to say it in plain Russian, this means ‘we (the United States) will continue to support such terrorist acts for as long as the UN Security Council has not done what we want’,” Lavrov said on Wednesday.

US intelligence officials have revealed CIA’s chicanery in its so-called “vetting process,” which is to safeguard the aid for Syrian rebels fall into the hands of extremists.

The process involved unreliable, third-party sources and that the truth is that the US is least informed on the identity and motivations of the people receiving the money and weapons, the officials admitted.

The support for al-Qaeda and other terror cells in Syria is feared to throw the militants into power and give them a staunch stronghold if the US-led campaign managed to finally topple the Assad government.

The German Federal Intelligence Service (BND) has revealed that al-Qaeda is responsible for numerous terrorist attacks in Syria, including the Houla massacre.

The BND estimates that al-Qaeda has carried out “about 90 terrorist attacks” in Syria between late last December and early July, German daily Die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitungwrote in an article on July 16.

The revelation was made public by the German government in response to a parliamentary question.

The German government also confirmed that it had received numerous reports from the BND on al-Qaeda’s involvement in the May 25 massacre in the Syrian town of Houla in the central province of Homs, in which 108 people, including dozens of children and women, were killed execution-style.

However, the German government stated that the reports were supposed to remain classified “by reason of national interest.”

The West and the Syrian opposition blamed the Syrian government for the carnage, but a Syrian government-appointed fact-finding mission had said that armed groups had carried out the massacre to frame the government and foment sectarian strife.

The intelligence reports raise several questions about the terrorist nature of the self-proclaimed Free Syrian Army, and even more so about the fact that many of the armed terrorists, killed in clashes with Syrian security forces, carried foreign passports.

On Thursday, The New York Times published an article, stating that “the evidence is mounting that Syria has become a magnet for Wahabi extremists, including those operating under the banner of al-Qaeda.”

Syria has been the scene of violence by armed groups since March 2011. The violence has claimed the lives of hundreds of people, including many security forces.

Damascus blames “outlaws, saboteurs, and armed terrorist groups” for the unrest, asserting that it is being orchestrated from abroad. The West and the Syrian opposition accuse the government of killing the protesters. …more
