AGGRESSION
DISGUISED AS CIVIL WARS
by Thierry Meyssan
If we accept to take a step back, we notice that the different conflicts which have bloodied
the Greater Middle East for the last sixteen years, from Afghanistan to Libya,
have not been a succession of civil wars, but the application of regional
strategies. Thierry Meyssan reminds us of the objectives and the tactics
of these wars since the « Arab Springs » and observes the preparation of those
to come.
At the end of 2010, a series of wars
began, initially presented as popular uprisings. Successively, Tunisia,
Egypt, Libya, Syria and Yemen were swept under by the « Arab Spring », a
reprise of the « Great Arab Revolt » of 1915, initiated by Lawrence of Arabia –
with the difference that this time they would not be
relying on the support of the Wahhabites, but the Muslim Brotherhood.
All these events had been carefully
planned by the United Kingdom from 2004, as revealed by the internal
documents of the Foreign Office leaked by the British whistle-blower Derek
Pasquill [1].
With the exception of the bombing of Tripoli (Libya), in August 2011, they were
born not only of the non-violent destabilisation techniques of Gene
Sharp [2],
but also of William S. Lind’s « 4th Generation War » [3].
Implemented by the US armies, the
British project of the « Arab Spring » overlapped with that of the United
States military – the destruction of societies and states at the
regional level, as formulated by Admiral Arthur Cebrowski, popularised by
Thomas Barnett [4],
and illustrated by Ralph Peters [5].
The events seemed to calm down in
the second quarter of 2012, so that on 30 June in Geneva, the United States and
Russia agreed to a new distribution of the Middle East.
However, the United States did not
honour their signature. A second war began in July 2012, in Syria, then
in Iraq. Small groups and commandos were succeeded by vast land armies composed
of jihadists. This was no longer a 4th Generation War, but a classic war of
position, adapted from the techniques of Abou Bakr Naji [6].
This time, in accordance with
the work of Robin Wright [7],
the intention to prevent the re-opening of the « Silk
Road » was superimposed on the two previous objectives when China
revealed its ambition.
The events seemed to calm down during the last quarter of
2017, after the defeat of Daesh, but the investments in
the conflicts were such that it seemed impossible for the partisans of war to
give up without attaining their goals.
We then watched a second attempt to
re-launch hostilities with the Kurdish question. After a first failure
in Iraq, there was a second failure in Syria. In both cases, the violence of
the aggression forced Turkey, Iran, Iraq and Syria to unite against their
exterior enemy.
Finally, the United Kingdom decided
to pursue its initial objective of domination via the Muslim Brotherhood, and
for that purpose, created the « Little Group », as revealed by Richard
Labeviere [8].
This secret structure includes Saudi Arabia, the United States, France and
Jordan.
From their side, the United States,
applying Kurt Campbell’s « Pivot to Asia » [9],
have just decided to concentrate their forces against
China. For that purpose, they are reforming the Quadrilateral Security
Dialogue with Australia, India and Japan.
Meanwhile, Western public opinion
believes that the single conflict which has already devastated all of the
Greater Middle East, from Afghanistan to Libya, is a succession of civil wars
for democracy.
