RNA - This destabilization project consists in creating an arc of instability, chaos, and violence as part of a larger policy to expand US and NATO as a means of containing Iran, Russia and China as well as their regional allies.
The “New Middle East” project was introduced publicly by Washington and Tel Aviv with the expectation that Syria would be the pressure point for realigning the whole region and thereby unleashing the forces of “constructive chaos.” This “constructive chaos” - which generates conditions of violence, terrorism and sectarian warfare - would in turn be used so that the US, Britain, and Israel could redraw the Mideast map with their geo-strategic needs and objectives.
To this end, the United States and NATO garrisoned and divided Afghanistan. They then inseminated animosity in the Levant by creating the terrorist group of ISIL, where a Syrian war is being supported and divisions in Iraq continue to agitate. The Eastern Mediterranean has been successfully militarized by NATO as well. Syria, Iran and Yemen continue to be demonized by the Western media and politicians, with a view to justifying a military agenda. In turn, the Western media has fed, on a daily basis, fake news that the populations of Iraq, Syria and Yemen cannot co-exist and that the conflict is not a war of occupation but a “civil war”.
Attempts at intentionally creating animosity among the different ethno-cultural and religious groups of this particular region are systematic and goal-oriented too. They are part of a carefully designed covert intelligence agenda. Even more ominous, many Arab regimes, such as that of Saudi Arabia, are assisting Washington in fomenting terrorism and divisions between local populations. The ultimate objective is to fuel sectarian warfare and weaken the resistance movement against foreign occupation through a “divide and conquer strategy” which serves Anglo-American and Israeli-Wahhabi interests in the broader region.
Silly how amid all these undisputable facts and figures, some out-of-touch politicians and “pundits” in the West are still trying to claim otherwise. They blame Iran for the current chaos and present the concept of a redrawn Middle East as a “humanitarian” and “righteous” arrangement that would benefit the peoples of the Muslim world!
For instance, addressing the 53rd session of the Munich Security Conference in Germany this week, US Vice President Mike Pence claimed the nuclear deal between Tehran and the world powers has given Iran “additional resources” to “destabilize” the region.
He further accused Iran of being “the state sponsor of terrorism,” and added, “Let me be clear again. Under President Trump, the United States will be fully committed to insuring that Iran never obtains a nuclear weapon capable of threatening our countries, our allies in the region, especially Israel, asserted the former Indiana governor.”
It doesn’t take a strategic mind to debunk Pence’s anti-Iran myth, as the peaceful nature of the nuclear program has been emphasized by the International Atomic Energy Agency time and again, even before the nuclear deal was clinched with the world powers in 2015. More so, it was President Donald Trump who himself called former President Barack Obama the creator of ISIL terrorist group, now wreaking havoc in Syria, Iraq, and Libya. It was also the CIA that “admitted” training the ISIL forces in Jordan in 2012 in a bid “to regime change Syria and contain Iran.”
Clearly, all these criminal moves and programs were destined to destabilize the entire planet. Similarly, the United States and NATO created an anti-Muslim and anti-immigrant culture and called it “counterterrorism”. They are now busy administering a familiar dose of nationalism and anti-Muslim policies in all interactions with the public, linking the presence of Muslim immigrants to the rise in terror attacks and blaming them for everything that has gone wrong with Western economies and societies.
At the forefront of this increasingly xenophobic Christian West, mired in contradictions of strategy and goals, is Trump’s Muslim ban announcement - the bars on entry from Muslim countries and a revamping of the refugee admissions process, which have only led to further protests and chaos not just in the United States but also in Europe.
This is an admission of US policy failure both in Syria and Iraq – plus that ridiculous map. There is no clash of civilizations here. What we are witnessing can only be described as nothing other than US creating more problems for itself, US undermining any chance of Muslim solidarity, US forging a democratic façade in the client states, US keeping the Middle East structurally underdeveloped even in oil-rich nations, US identifying Israel’s role with its own national interests, and US pouring more fuel on the flames of war and chaos.
Vice President Pence is free to wear blinders and deceive himself into believing that Iran is behind the current madness. But he is wrong to assume his glaring contradictions and willful incompetence can fool the entire planet and manufacture consent, let alone help the United States and its duped allies escape the harsh judgement of history.
