I just read this:
US Secretary of State John Kerry has said the militant Lebanese Shia Islamist group Hezbollah and Iran are helping perpetuate President Bashar al-Assad’s “campaign of terror” in Syria. Mr Kerry said thousands of Hezbollah fighters were contributing significantly to the violence. He added that Iran was actively supporting Hezbollah’s involvement.
Oh jeez, Mr. Kerry is deploring that foreign elements are involved in the war on Syria. But how is it that Mr. Kerry had nothing to say when many tens of thousands of foreign fighters invaded Syria from Lebanon and Turkey? Where was Mr. Kerry when the Israelis bombed Syrian targets, not once, but twice?
Kerry also had bad things to say about Russia and its fulfillment of military contracts with Syria. But why did Mr. Kerry have nothing to say when US allies like France and Qatar flooded the country with weapons?
Could it be because Washington’s puppets are losing this war?
Indeed, all the information seems to confirm that the strategic town of al Qusayr has almost been liberated from the Wahabi crazies. The Syrian military is said to be in control of the center of the city, while Hezbollah controls all the roads in and out of the city. The insurgents are still in control of several heavily fortified neighborhoods, equipped with tunnels and bunkers. Unless the insurgency manages to break through the Hezbollah blockade the outcome is basically a matter of time.
Hence Mr. Kerry’s hypocritical histrionics.
The Saker
the empire is fulminating and showing its weaknesses and dead ends.
three weeks ago it was ranting about chemical weapons. two weeks ago it was yelling about alleged massacres. now it is all hezbollah.
the histrionics of William Hague and John Kerry are indicative of the shift in momentum in syria.
Al Akhbar still predicts a hard week of fighting in Qusayr, but the outcome is probably predetermined, especially if the city is blockaded.
@Anonymous:Al Akhbar still predicts a hard week of fighting in Qusayr
I recently discovered Al Akhbar and I find them pretty good. I will say that since don’t know the terrain, this is just a wild guess, but one week to take a neighborhood which has been fortified with trenches, tunnels, hidden passages through walls, mines (tank anti-personnel), ammunition dumps, rest areas and medical positions and which is defended by a semi-skilled and desperate force with plenty of anti-tank weapons, heavy machine guns, mines, mortars, etc. would be very very fast. I hope that they can do it. If the Wahabis did not expect to be pushed back so fast, and there are signs of that, then their defense could crumble faster. But if they had months to prepare, this could be hellishly difficult. Look at the Israelis who could not control Bint Jbeil in over a month of intense operations by their elites units.
God willing, the Wahabis have been over confident and their morale is crumbling. It could be over fast. But if a determined force is dead set on making a last stand, then things could take much more time, in particular if the Syrian command wants to minimize casualties in their own forces.
Nothing new about the hypocrisy of it all, just like here in Lebanon with the Saudi funded and ran March 14 th party that has been whining and crying about Hezbollah involvement in Syria, and calling for the government to do something about it, while people in their party have been deeply involved since day one, or maybe even before it all even began…and now that Hezbollah is really involved now, they are raising the anti by accusing them of atrocities even though they know Hezbollah does not have a reputation or a history for such…
Like Madeline Albright, who claims not to have known of her Jewish ancestry, John Kerry is also a Jew. His family’s name is Cohen. His family must have been some sort of bigwig for his father to be able to marry in to the Forbes publishing empire and to land a cushy high-level sinecure in the State Department. Unlike Madeline Albright, I do not believe that all twenty top level deputies appointed by John Kerry are Jews though. In any event this sort of chutzpah is typical of State Department leaders, and as long as the media is willing to play along, the average lemming will be none the wiser.
@Ghost of WLP: LOL! I am always amazed at this Jewish compulsion to change names. Of course, they will blame that on this mysterious and totally cause-less “psychopathology” called “anti-Semitism”, but this is self-evidently nonsense. Take, for example, the Jews amongst the Bolsheviks – they were in such a pro-Jewish environment (when the Secret Police was roughly 80% Jewish) that it could hardly get better, and yet they still clung to their fake names like Trotsky, Beloborodov, Zinoviev, Kamenev, Sverdlov, etc. etc. etc.
And now Albright, Kerry and who else?
Weird…
Who else? I suspect many of the Anglo-American establishment are married into wealthy Jewish families.
Actually I was mistaken about the Forbes family having made a fortune in publishing. The Forbes family is a wasp family that, according to that article, first made its fortune in China. I do know that the Sassoon family were Jews who owned a monopoly on China’s opium trade, though I have never heard anything about the Forbes.
If you want to know who else might have Jewish roots, look at Franklin Delano Rosenfeld whose family arrived in Holland from Spain, and the Rockefeller family whose family arrived in France from Turkey and has roots in Thessalonika. Also, if you have a chance to visit the Flagler mansion in Palm Beach Florida (Flagler was Rockefeller’s business partner) you’ll notice that nowhere in any of artwork or embellishments of that elaborate manison are there any hints of Christian iconography anywhere — just a lot of gratuitous freemasonic imagery.
Also, John McCain is married to the daughter of goy gangster who was a major figure in the Lansky-Bronfman crime syndicate. Today they own the distribution rights to all Annheiser Busch beer in the southwest. The Busch brewing dynasty was founded by German Jews. Also the Monsanto family were Jews who reaped a fortune in the slave trade.
