“Former US military adviser David Kilcullen says there
would be no Isis without Iraq
invasion” Lizzie Dearden, March 4, 2016.
“The persecution of
Christians throughout the Middle East, as well as the silence with which it has
been met in the West, are the subject of journalist Ed West’s Kindle Single “The
Silence of Our Friends.” The booklet is a brisk and chilling litany of
horrors: Discriminatory laws, mass graves,
unofficial pogroms, and exile. The persecuted are not just Coptic and Nestorian Christians who have
relatively few co-communicants in the West, but Catholics, Orthodox, and
Protestants as well.”Geoffrey Grider. January 23, 2014.
“For more than a
decade, extremists have targeted Christians and other minorities, who often
serve as stand-ins for the West. This was especially true in Iraq after the U.S. invasion, which caused
hundreds of thousands to flee. ‘‘Since 2003, we’ve lost priests, bishops and
more than 60 churches were bombed,’’ Bashar Warda, the Chaldean Catholic
archbishop of Erbil, said. With the fall of
Saddam Hussein, Christians began to leave Iraq in large numbers, and the
population shrank to less than 500,000 today from as many as 1.5 million in
2003.” Eliza Griswold, July 22, 2015.
“In Saddam Hussein’s Iraq,
Christians were left alone if they did not interfere in politics. Indeed, they
prospered as doctors, lawyers, journalists, academics, engineers, businessmen.
A Christian, Tariq Aziz, was Saddam’s foreign minister who negotiated with
Secretary of State James Baker to try to prevent what became the Gulf War.” Patrick
J. Buchanan, The American Conservative, April 14, 2017
“Before 2003, there
were still 800,000 Christians in Iraq. But after a decade of church
bombings and murders of priests, their numbers have plummeted. When the Islamic
State seized a third of Iraq,
Christians under the group’s rule had to convert to Islam and pay a tax or face
beheading.” Patrick J. Buchanan, The American Conservative, April 14, 2017
“Retired Lt. General
Michael Flynn, the former head of the Defense Intelligence Agency who came up
through intelligence positions in Iraq and Afghanistan, says that the George W.
Bush administration’s Iraq war was a tremendous blunder that helped to create
the self-proclaimed Islamic State, or ISIS.” Matt Ferner, 11/30/2015 03:19

“With their command
and control centre based in Istanbul, Turkey, military supplies from Saudi Arabia and Qatar in particular were
transported by Turkish intelligence to the border for rebel acquisition. CIA
operatives along with Israeli and Jordanian commandos were also training
FSA rebels on the Jordanian-Syrian border with anti-tank and anti-aircraft
weapons. In addition, other reports
show that British and French military were also involved in these secret
training programmes. It appears that the same FSA rebels receiving this elite
training went straight into ISIS – last month one ISIS commander, Abu
Yusaf, said, ‘Many of the FSA people who the west has trained are actually
joining us.’” Nafeez Ahmed
I believe many Christians and other denominations would
still be alive today and the countries where they lived would still be whole,
were it not for the “illegal wars” planned and carried out by Western war
criminals (past and present) in positions of power. Some of these war criminals
purport to be “Christian” but they and their associates created the unholy mess, that has resulted in not only the
killings of Christians, but other unfortunate peoples in Iraq, Libya,
Syria, Yemen, Afghanistan and other countries
too. Yet, one wonders, why the media has
not reported or made the connection that these terrible crimes against humanity
are the result of the depredations planned by; “The War Criminals That Opened
The Gates Of Hell.” Such, is the state of the “investigative news” business
that it has become, “Propaganda Peddlers for war criminals...” that are
training terrorists, that are killing Christians and other peoples’ as well.
“The effective propagandist must be a master of the art
of speech, of writing, of journalism, of the poster and of the leaflet. He must
have the gift to use the major methods of influencing public opinion such as
the press, film and radio to serve his ideas and goals, above all in an age of
advancing technology.” - Joseph Goebbles, Nazi Propagandist
Despite the overwhelming evidence that our “leaders” and their
treacherous “allies’ are funding, training and arming terrorists that are
slaughtering Christians and other denominations in the Middle East; this information
is suppressed. Instead, we are fed a daily diet of B.S. by “TV News and
Newspapers” that protects the war criminals in our midst. Though one courageous
American politician did say this:
“Under U.S. law it is illegal for any American to
provide money or assistance to al-Qaeda, ISIS
or other terrorist groups. If you or I gave money, weapons or support to
al-Qaeda or ISIS, we would be thrown in jail.
Yet the U.S.
government has been violating this law for years, quietly supporting allies and
partners of al-Qaeda, ISIL, Jabhat Fateh al Sham and other terrorist groups
with money, weapons, and intelligence support, in their fight to overthrow the
Syrian government.[i]... Rep. Tulsi Gabbard, December 8,
2016,Press Release.
“Known and
documented, Saudi Arabia has
played a key strategic role in promoting and financing terrorism on behalf of Washington. Moreover,
Saudi weapons purchases from the US
and Canada are also being
used to equip and arm various ‘opposition’ rebel groups in Syria including
the ISIL and Al Nusrah.”
“The West may have to
pay a price for its alliance with Saudi Arabia and the Gulf monarchies, which
have always found Sunni jihadism more attractive than democracy....Western
powers and their regional allies have largely escaped criticism for their role
in reigniting the war in Iraq....” Patrick Cockburn, The Independent, U.K.
13 July 2014.
“The refugee crisis
should be seen as the warning signal that the United States and its NATO allies
– especially Britain and France – are bringing the world to a state of chaos
that is going to keep spreading and that is approaching a point of no
return. It is quick and easy to break things. Putting them back
together may be impossible. Civilization itself may be more fragile than it
seems.” Diana Johnstone, September 7, 2015.
I believe based on abundant evidence, what we are seeing is:
The Actions of the ‘Depraved’ and other “... evidence of planning of wars” is
available at links below.
Therefore, in closing I ask: “Should Some Political Leaders
and Others Be Tried as Accessories After the fact?”
And: “Are There War Criminals Living In America, Canada,
England, Germany, France and other NATO Countries?”
And Finally: Do We
Need Present Day Nuremberg
Trials?
“The Nuremberg trials were a series of trials held
between 1945 and 1949 in which the Allies prosecuted German military leaders,
political officials, industrialists, and financiers for crimes they had
committed during World War II.”
