From the first sudden, and quite dramatic, appearance of the fanatical Islamic group known as ISIS which was largely unheard of until a year ago, on the world's stage and which promptly replaced the worn out and tired al Qaeda as the world's terrorist bogeyman, we suggested that the "straight to beheading YouTube clip" purpose behind the Saudi Arabia-funded Islamic State was a simple one: use the Jihadists as the vehicle of choice to achieve a political goal: depose of Syria's president Assad, who for years has stood in the way of a critical Qatari natural gas pipeline, one which could dethrone Russia as Europe's dominant - and belligerent - source of energy, reaching an interim climax with the unsuccessful Mediterranean Sea military build up of 2013, which nearly resulted in quasi-world war.
The narrative and the plotline were so transparent, even Russia saw right through them. Recall from September of last year:

Probably about the owner, Daniel Ivanjiiski, a Bulgarian, also convicted of insider trading. His daddy, Krassimir Ivanjiiski, has the same mailing address in Bulgaria as the company, ABC Media that zerohedge.com is registered to. Daddy also used to be in the higher echelons of the communist hierarchy. So Zero Hedge most likely is part of Putin’s hybrid war against the West. In this particular case the info may be correct, although the slant is always the same -bad America, bad everything American.
More indication that Obama may not what he purports to be but more of a plant by powerful forces to implement agenda 21.
Bump.
Oh fudgepacker
I wonder at that too. Why send a fudgepacker to a mooselimb country?
I know someone who got involved in the denar scam a while back. Well, they had their own little group of conspiracy theorist’s over in Iraq that seemed to be very well connected and that is what they were saying too. This was about a year ago.
Why would Assad be opposed to the pipeline? If he was in favour of it, wouldn’t that end the nightmare? And yes, I do find this theory plausible although unproven.

Omg
If this is true how many murders tortures and rapes are directly in the heads of US political leaders?
Are there any depths to which obama wil not sink when it becomes “personal”, as it did with him wanting to depose Assad?
This zero hedge is full of wall Street types for readers and the author and pals are into conspiracy theories.
Obama ( a code word “thug”) is responsible for all of this.
I read conflicting info on Assad. Whether he is wonderful or not, I see no better alternatives. It is hard to trust any info in this area. I trust the Obama White House the least.
What we read seems far different from what happened. Christian sites and villages that have existed for thousands of years were doing fine when Assad was in control. Look at the cities in ruins. Syria was doing just fine until the US got involved.
Connect this dot to Obama telling Putin five months prior, in March 2012, that he'd have more flexibility.
Because he depends on Russia for support. Naturally, the Russians will fight tooth and nail to prevent that pipeline from being built.
Just because you are paranoid it doesn’t mean someone isn’t out to get you.
Circumstantially this scenario is very plausible. Maybe the novices running our govt never intended to set up a “jihad “ army of radicals to overthrow Assad and in the process, set a brushfire that would get out of control, but they certainly are novices enough to have done so.
“So, 2011 — the end of 2011, when the US military left the country, AQI, which was the predecessor to ISIS, was at its weakest point, it was at its nadir. As soon as we left, they started to rebound. They started to rebound because the military pressure came off of them, and they started to rebound because Prime Minister Maliki, without the US there to babysit him, started making a whole rash of bad political decisions which alienated Sunnis…The bottom line is AQI would never have rebounded had we stayed there in some number.”
If you use the site for investing I am told it has good INFO. I don’t pay attention to writers who don’t use their real name.
