May’s Distress Signal:
Rasa - It takes skill to make something half-truth truth again. And skill is something British Prime Minister Theresa May doesn't have, in particular when it comes to scapegoating Iran.

RNA - She made that clumsily clear when she warned war-party Washington on Friday about “Iran’s malign influence in the Middle East.” May claimed pushing back on “Iran’s aggressive efforts” to increase its "arc of influence from Tehran through to the Mediterranean" was a priority for the UK.

 

Further still, during a press conference with President Donald Trump, she commented on UK and US foreign policy more broadly, saying that the allies must “stand together” as forces for good in the world, while simultaneously trying to distance themselves from foreign policy blunders.

 

The part that says “forces for good in the world” is ridiculous. It is now post-truth that the United States, Britain and Israel – and not Iran - are behind the ongoing process of destabilization and political fragmentation in Iraq, Syria and Yemen:

 

-The term “New Middle East” was first uttered in 2006 in Tel Aviv by former US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice. It was subsequently heralded by Israel at the height of the Anglo-American sponsored Israeli war on Lebanon. The criminal hordes told the international community that the project for a “New Middle East” was being launched from Lebanon.

 

-It was a confirmation of an Anglo-American-Israeli “military roadmap” for the Middle East. The project was designed to create an arc of instability, chaos and violence extending from Lebanon and Syria to Iraq, the Persian Gulf, Iran and Afghanistan.

 

-The chaos – which generated conditions of violence and warfare throughout the region - would in turn be used so that the United States, Britain, and Israel could invade the region and redraw the map of the Middle East in accordance with their geo-strategic needs and objectives - under the guise of fighting terror.

 

-The project to regime change the targeted nation states has been packaged as a solution to regional hostilities, but this is misleading, false and fictitious. The regime-change advocates avoid to depict the roots of the problems and conflicts. What Prime Minister May doesn't acknowledge is that almost all the ongoing conflicts, including the emergence of ISIL, are the consequence of overlapping Anglo-American-Israeli agendas. They have nothing to do with Iran.

 

-The ongoing bloodshed and chaos are the result of the deliberate aggravation of pre-existing tensions. Sectarian divisions, ethnic tensions and internal violence are being exploited in various parts of the region. Syria is just one of many examples of this Anglo-American strategy of “divide and conquer.” Other examples are Iraq, Yemen, Libya and Afghanistan.

 

-Western-style democracy has been a requirement only for those which do not conform to Washington’s political demands. Invariably, it constitutes a pretext for sanctions and confrontation. Saudi Arabia, Bahrain and Jordan are examples of undemocratic states that Washington has no problems with because they are allies. These unelected regimes are assisting Washington and terror proxies to foment divisions in Syria, Iraq and Yemen. They seek to weaken the resistance movement and serve Anglo-American-Israeli interests.

 

Prime Minister May was right to declare terrorism as a persistent threat to global peace and security. But she refused to mention which countries helped create the current mess in the first place. There is ample ground to think on those lines because both the US and UK governments conveniently looked the other way when ISIL poured into Iraq and Syria and they termed it as “an internal matter.”

 

They created the proxy to exploit it for various purposes, one of which was to contest the Russian power with which Washington is at odds over Ukraine and Eurasia, and Iran with which Washington and London are at odds over its growing influence and its model as an independent state.

 

May’s distress signal on Friday in Washington made it clear that the Anglo-American-Israeli military roadmap has been a foreign policy blunder and that they can no longer remake the Middle East in their own image.
