The Pentagon document leaked to Judicial Watch talks of creating a “Salafist principality” in eastern Syria, which would serve as a counterweight to the Shiite influence in the region as represented by the Alawite (a Shiite sect) al-Assad government and their Iranian allies.
Not to mention ISIS also provides a very convenient excuse for further US intervention in Syria – the real goal of which is removing Assad at any cost, including even the deaths of hundreds of thousands, the laying waste to a country and subjecting large territories to the scourge of medieval barbarism.
But the United States of America has never shirked from the hard decisions needed to “defend freedom.” [Corporate freedom, that is.—Ed.]
Sometimes killing millions is what it takes. You know, the general in Vietnam who said “We had to destroy the village, in order to save it.” Hiroshima and Dresden. Or Madeleine Albright telling 60 Minutes that killing 500,000 Iraqi children was “worth it” just to depose Saddam Hussein:
Being a member of the inner councils of imperialism makes you immune to prosecution for any crime against humanity no matter how heinous…she says she made a “mistake”, but clearly what she has gotten is no more than a slap on the wrist.
In one of the recent GOP presidential deabtes, Hugh Hewitt made it clear what is expected of a US president: being able to “kill innocent children, by not the scores, but the hundreds and the thousands” if that’s what it takes to acheive US policy objectives. The audience wasn’t even shocked by the question. They only booed when Hewitt attacked Carson personally:
We shouldn’t be surprised then that the United States considers it “worth it” to create ISIS and kill many thousands more, just to depose Bashar al-Assad. This is the total moral depravity which charaterizes US foreign policy and has done for at least a century.
And we equally shouldn’t be surprised at Washington and the MSM’s intense hatred of Vladimir Putin, who actually had the gall to fight and destroy ISIS rather than let their savagery spread to Russia (and Europe).
The CIA (with Zbigniew Brezinski) provoked a Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, then created the Mujahadeen which morphed into al-Qaeda.
Yesterday in Brussels we saw another example of the blowback from Western regime change operations. We shall surely see more.
But the CIA and Mossad never think that far ahead. Or more likely they just don’t care.

1) Can we claim that Brussels was ISIS blowback? It may look like it was but where is the precise evidence?What happened could just as easily have been Machiavellian terror.
2) Why should anyone trust the truthfulness of a Pentagon document leaked to Judicial Watch- this could just as easily be a deliberate leak to create a limited hangout that yes we admit our policies in the ME and especially in Iraq have contributed to the growth of extremism which might even merge with other groups into a Salafist state whilst this admission covers over the massive recruitment, training, arming, payment, supply and maintenance of forces on the ground esp through Turkey which are the barest essentials for military success/ we admit a degree of responsibility so we can hide the full extent of a planned outrage
3) Which US Govt is being discussed?There are several concurrent US foreign policies in Syria some clandestine,some official, by different arms of the US State.4) The conclusions reached over Carsons replies to CNN are disingenuous. Carson is not responsible for ISIS, nor is the first question framed within the claimed context which is the deaths of children as collateral damage not the deliberate murder of children as part of an alleged US policy against ISIS with which Carson is not remotely connected, which is why the audience booed. This article barely scratches the surface of what is a much deeper, vastly larger and more sophisticated intelligence operation than even in Libya, which was the prototype…..
