It’s that zero-support Special Relationship again
Hague….surprisingly mature for his age
The Slog: This is what the BBC
says about the chemical weapons atrocities with which Bashar Assad is
credited: ‘Attacks using chemical weapons have killed hundreds of people
near the Syrian capital, Damascus, the opposition alliance says’. The
Opposition alliance, folks, is a polite way of saying “Those nice guys
in the Muslim Brotherhood what America backs, like”. So we can trust
them, right?
In a classic clanger of a quote in the Telegraph last Wednesday,
William ‘Mekon’ Hague told the Party’s house magazine, “Evidence of the
attack is deteriorating every day”. And he dismissed claims that the
Brotherhood may have staged or even committed the atrocity themselves.
Given they have form in this area, it is baffling me as to why Willy is
so sure….given that he presented no evidence at the time – or since.
He did say he wanted the UN to go in and check the veracity of the
story. But yesterday, Camerlot was gung-ho for a joint US/UK action
against Assad. I wonder why the UN inspection route has been abruptly
dropped, but not Mr Hague: he dismissed suggestions that the attack
could have been faked by rebels fighting against Assad’s regime. “I
think the chances of that are vanishingly small,” he concluded.
Why? Hague went on to add, “This is our priority at the moment: to
make sure that a UN team can investigate on the ground and establish the
facts.”If this does not happen, Mr Hague said Britain would return to
the UN Security Council to “get a stronger mandate and for the world to
speak together more forcefully about this so that there can be access.”
But yesterday, um, that didn’t seem to be on the agenda any more. Guess why…
Overnight, ABC news in Australia reports that the the Assad regime has approved the UN demand to visit the chemical weapons site.
But a United States official said the development was
“too late to be credible” and Washington was all but certain the
government had gassed its own people.
What will little lapdog Willy say now, we ask ourselves? The whole thing is a sick joke.
……………………………………………………..
Three days after the Coalition came to power, I posted to say that
William Hague, the new Foreign Secretary, had flown to Washington when
he should’ve flown to Berlin and Paris, followed by Brussels. Since
then, the bloke has been falling – at first steadily, and latterly right
off a cliff – in my estimation. Now we are seeing the results of Hague
and his idiot-run FCO in the shape of a planned attack on Syria.
Our self-styled élite will never learn. But anyway, these are the real facts surrounding this lunacy:
1. Neither the US nor the UK has presented one shred of evidence to pin chemical weapons attacks on the regime.
2. We are going to war in support of an Islamist organisation – the
Muslim Brotherhood – because that’s who America is backing. They are
trying (and failing) to wrest power from a non-Islamist (but equally
repugnant) Assad regime run by minority Alawhites.
3. For eighteen months now, the agents of US/UK “policy” in Syria
have been calling the imminent demise of Bashar Assad. ‘Atrocities’,
‘Attacks on Turkey’ and so forth were all false flag stunts to justify
later actions…..as are the chemical weapons accusations. They were all
wrong, so now we are furthering policy to oust Assad by the illegal use
of force.
4. Both Britain and America are hugely dependent on oil as a
resource, and some degree of stability in the Middle East. This is now
their “strategy” for achieving it….ie, the usual one: invent a crime and
a danger, and then punish it militarily. (See Iraq, Libya, Gulf War etc
etc).
5. The US backs the Muslim Brotherhood because they are an anti-Iran
schism inside Islam. Both the US & the UK want Iran taken out
because of its bomb building process….and because Israel is our ally.
I’d like to know which clown came up with the idea of backing terrorists
in order to get rid of terrorists: should we therefore have backed
Protestant Militia in Northern Ireland against the IRA in the 1980s?
6. We can only gape in wonder at the US/UK hypocrisy in condemning
the Egyptian military ‘coup’, while preparing to launch one against
Assad themselves. The military in Egypt are being demonised
because….guess who, the Muslim Brotherhood, are opposing the military.
Ten years after the start of the War on Terror bollocks, we are
backing the US in a kack-handed Middle East policy promising war on two
fronts….and one invasion immediately. Like every US foreign venture
since Korea, it involves ludicrously optimistic war aims, naive policy
strategies, and cynical agendas.
There is only one thing Britain needs to get here: out of the Special Relationship, once and for all.
