Trump decision to end CIA-created anti-Assad forces … Can Trump administration defect the neoconservatives?
The U.S. military has provided arms to
so-called “anti-Assad moderate rebels” and trained them. However, moderates are
merely nominal and they are virtually Daeish pure and simple. As written in the
first article, after training, they turned their weapons over and joined the
Daeish. This is the CIA covert program to arm and train rebel army in Syria.”
At the G20 summit, President Trump agreed
to end such intervention in Syria and cooperate with Russia. This action not
only has great meaning but also is unbearable to neoconservatives who want to
prolong and even escalate the conflict in Syria. So the article says that this
agreement will be severely attacked and “the decision may be undermined or
sabotaged.”
The second article shows Mr. Paul Craig
Roberts’ opinion: Given the strong influence of interest groups, the prospect
of Trump succeeding to normalize relations with Russia and withdraw from the US
interventions in the Middle East is remote.
I don’t agree with these opinions. I rather
think that it is an opportunity for the Trump administration to defect the
neoconservatives. Although Pr. Pau Craig Robert gives an excellent opinion, I
think that he seems to overvalue the power of U.S. interest groups. As a matter
of fact, they have been continuously deprived of power.
The situation in Ukraine, Syria and Iraq
clearly shows it. So does the fact that they cannot cause conflicts leading to
World Wat III in spite of their desperate efforts. Quite recently many people
including David Rockefeller have died. I have a feeling that Cheney, Rumsfeld
and Bush Sr. who are presumably neocons or Nazi leader will not exist any
longer at least in two months.
I have a feeling that it is almost 100%
possible for the Trump administration to exterminate the Rockefeller faction. You
are right in thinking that the Rockefeller faction is a group of neocons, Nazi,
Zionists and military/industrial complex. There is no way that they would
surrender. I suppose that they will be destroyed.

'Trump
decision to end CIA covert ops in Syria will be severely attacked by Neocons'

<snip>
In 2014 – 2015, $500
million of US taxpayer's money was spent on training 54 so-called 'moderate
rebels', most of whom immediately turned their weapons over and joined Al-Nusra
or Al-Qaeda, explains investigative journalist Rick
Sterling.
A Washington Post article
published on Wednesday says that, according to US officials, Donald Trump decided to phase out the covert CIA program to
arm and train rebels in Syria in favor of working with Russia.
However, the White has declined to confirm
the details.
RT: If this report is accurate
and Trump decided to shut down CIA training of rebels in Syria, how might that
affect the situation on the ground?
Rick
Sterling: It’ll be a
significant step. One thing that should be pointed out is that the US,
through the CIA, or the Defense Department, the arming of extremist groups is
illegal under international law.
<snip>
RT: Assuming it's true, why do
you think the White House would decline to confirm the report?
RS: I think that is indicative of the battle underway over US foreign
policy. Already in the Washington Post report
today, the people they quote, such as Charles Lister, are very negative on it.
Lister says something like Trump’s falling into a “Russian trap.” They basically want to prolong the conflict in Syria. Lister works at the Middle East Institute, which receives
significant funding from military industrial corporations, such as Raytheon.
They don’t want the war and the conflict to end
– they want to prolong it and even escalate it.
<snip>
The decision may be undermined or sabotaged.
<snip>
RT: This isn't the first time US
officials and the president have issued conflicting messages. Why isn't there a
common line coming out of Washington?
RS: The mainstream media, unfortunately, has had a campaign attacking
Trump’s foreign policy. The only time they cheered Trump was when he launched
the missile attacks on April 6.
<snip>
This plan now, or the
news the CIA Train and Equip Program is being shut down, that is a very good
thing. We can expect it to be severely attacked
by neoconservatives, who want to prolong and even escalate the conflict
much against the interests of the American people, and obviously supremely
against the interests of the people of Syria and the region.

The neoconservatives, the
military/security complex, the Israel Lobby, and the US presstitutes have
succeeded in blocking Trump from withdrawing from Syria
and from normalizing relations with Russia. <snip> If Trump were to normalize relations, thereby
removing “the threat” that justifies the power and profit of the
military/security complex’s budget, he would likely be impeached as a traitor
to the USA. Trump’s tweets would be overwhelmed by the onslaught of the
presstitutes.
<snip>
The neoconservatives, who
serve both the Zionist state of Israel and the US military/security complex, are another of the powerful interest groups
that constrain the American government.
<snip>
The total budget of the US
military/security complex has been estimated at $1.1 trillion, a figure that is
70% of Russia’s estimated 2017 GDP.
<snip> Washington’s wars in
the Middle East involve many interests, including mundane ones such as who
controls pipeline locations and energy flows.
<snip>
If we consider the
combined power of these interest groups—the US
military/security complex with an annual budget greater than the GDP of most
countries, the neoconservatives with their ideology of
US world hegemony and alliance with both Democratic and Republican parties,
and Israel which has the US government in its pocket
and brags about it—how is it possible for
President Trump to do as he said he would do and normalize relations
with Russia and withdraw from the US interventions in
the Middle East? The prospect of Trump succeeding is remote.
