There's No Such Thing As ISIS": Whistleblowing Journalist Destroys West's Terror Narrative, Warns Of Crackdown On "Dissidents

A day after the massacre of innocent citizens by Islamic extremists that turned the streets of Paris into charnel house and left 132 civilians dead, the beleagured Syrian President Bashar al-Assad had a message for the West.

While condemning the attacks and branding the perpetrators “savages”, Assad reminded the world and the western powers demanding his overthrow in particular, that Syria has faced this brand of terrorism for five years. In what amounted to an "I told you so" moment, Assad, a civilised man, educated in Britain but trained by experience in dealing with bloodthirsty fanatical nutcases, also said the following: "We said, don't take what is happening in Syria lightly. Unfortunately, European officials did not listen."

Assad also took the opportunity to rub salt in the wounds by commenting that the US and EU sponsorship of Wahabi Muslim regimes in Saudi Arabia and Qatar that support (both explicitly and implicitly) Sunni extremism in Syria and elsewhere is the root cause of the problem. His language was less provocative than that which he used in September (presumably because he was trying not to inflame tensions less than 24 hours after the Paris massacre). Here’s what he said: "The question that is being asked throughout France today is, was France's policy over the past five years the right one? The answer is no."

Presumably, Assad was referencing the West’s support for the various rebel groups, including ISIS and Al Nusra (collectively Daesh) seeking to oust his government. Those groups, have received money, guns, and training from US and EU 'military advisers' at various times, as well as being given support from the CIA, Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. The situation on the ground is of course so fluid that it’s nearly impossible to keep track of where the guns, money, and fighters end up, meaning that even those observers who yeel 'conspiracy theorist' at anyone drawing obvious conclusions would be hard pressed to contend that the US has not at least indirectly armed and trained ISIS.

Perhaps the most overlooked passage in all of the leaked documents that have surfaced thus far is the following from a declassified Pentagon report dated August 2012 and obtained by Judicial Watch:

...there is the possibility of establishing a declared or undeclared Salafist Principality in eastern Syria (Hasaka and Der Zor), and this is exactly what the supporting powers to the opposition want, in order to isolate the Syrian regime, which is considered the strategic depth of the Shia expansion (Iraq and Iran).”

That’s it. The official confirmation that the USA backed the ISIS bid to recreated the Islamic Caliphate that once ruled the area from the Mediterranean to the Persian Gulf.

If that is not a smoking gun, Pol Pot was an innocent man, but nobody in a position of power seems to care as the leaders of the free world continue to suck up to the traitor and war criminal Obama, (whose supporters still insist he is not a closet Muslim,) continues to support the efforts of the most extreme versions of Islam in overthrowing secular dictators and replacing them with extremist Sunni Muslim theocracies.

The passage above clearly states that the US knew this was coming and viewed it as “exactly what the supporting powers to the opposition want” on the way to not only “isolating” Assad, but also to breaking Tehran’s Shiite crescent.

Although that’s such a critical excerpt, it has been habitually overlooked, and ironically, tragedies like that which occurred in Paris only serve to galvanize public opinion around an ideal rather than around the search for answers and that, is a dangerous, dangerous thing.

In that context and (importantly) in the context of French President Francois Hollande’s push to alter the French Constitution, we bring you the following interview with journalist Gearoid O’Colmain who pretty much blows apart the entire charade in the space of ten minutes.
