Mike
Ruppert was convinced last New Year that world war was imminent. He
then became equally convinced that it was not going to happen.
It
may be that his earlier analysis was right, but his timing was out.
Syria
And Iran Dominoes Lead To World War
Almost
three years ago I wrote an analytical piece on the concept of
deliberately engineering wars, big and small, by elitists to distract
the masses away from particular global developments that work to the
benefit of the establishment power structure. That article was
entitled ‘Will
The Globalists Trigger Yet Another World War?’:

In
that analysis, I concluded that since at least 2008, the powers that
be (whether posing as Republicans or Democrats) had set in a motion a
series of events that revolved around Iran, and most disturbingly,
Syria, which could be used to trigger a vast global war scenario.
Today, unfortunately, it seems my concerns were more than valid, and
circumstances evolving in that particular region are dire indeed.
Now,
some may argue that circumstances in the Middle East have always been
“dire” and that it does not take much to predict a renewal of
chaos. Admittedly, for the past six years alone the American public
has been treated to one propaganda campaign after the other testing
the social waters to see if a sizable majority of the citizenry could
be convinced to support strikes against Iran. The U.S. and Israeli
governments have come very close on several occasions in rhetoric and
in the build up of arms, to just such an event. However, I would
submit that the previous threats of war that came and went are
absolutely nothing in comparison to the danger today.
Syria’s
civil war has developed into something quite frightening, well beyond
the blind insurrections of the so-called “Arab Spring”. So many
outside interests (especially U.S. interests) are involved in the
conflict it is impossible to tell whether there are actually any real
revolutionaries in Syria anymore. This unsettling of the country’s
foundation has taken a turn which I warned about recently, namely,
the removal of UN monitors from the area, which was announced only
days ago:
The
removal of UN monitors is a sign that some kind of strike is near the
horizon.
Accusations
of potential “chemical weapons stores” in Syria are being floated
by the Department of Defense as a clear cut rationale for invasion,
and Israel has essentially admitted that an attack on Iran is not
only on the table but beyond planning stages into near
implementation. Even Israeli citizens are openly worried that theirgovernment is “serious” this time in its calls for preemptive
attack, stockpiling gas masks and even protesting against the policy:
The
tension of the atmosphere surrounding this crisis is unlike anything
the Middle East has seen in decades, and that includes the U.S.
invasions of Iraq and Afghanistan.
But
before we can understand the true gravity of this situation, we must
first confront some misconceptions…
Firstly,
I realize that there are many people out there who have natural and
conditioned inclinations towards the hatred of Muslim nations. There
are also just as many people out there who are inclined to distrust
the intentions of the government of Israel. Both sides make good
points on occasion, and both sides also have a tendency to get lazy,
painting with a ridiculously broad brush and blaming all the woes of
the world on one side or the other so that they don’t have to think
through the complexities of globalism and the one world technocratic
club, or accept that “Al-Qaeda” is not the biggest threat to
peace and stability. It’s much easier to convict an entire race, or
an entire religion, than it is to comprehend the mechanizations of an
elite minority that plays both sides off each other.
Whatever
side you may favor, simply know that in the end the sides are
irrelevant. We could argue for months about who is just, who is
right, who was there first, etc. Again, it’s irrelevant. What does
matter, though, are the potential consequences of an exponential
conflict in the region, which no one can afford.
Sadly,
there are still plenty of Americans out there that believe the U.S.
is the “richest nation on the globe” and has finances beyond
reckoning with which to wage endless wars.
Here
are the facts. Here is exactly what will happen if the U.S., NATO, or
Israel, enter into a hot war with either Iran or Syria, and the
results are not optimistic:
1)
Syria And Iran Will Join Forces
In
2006, Iran and Syria signed a mutual defense treaty in response to
the growing possibility of conflict with the West. Both countries are
highly inclined to fulfill this treaty, and it would seem that Iran
is already doing so, at least financially, as Syria spirals into
civil war. In fact, the U.S. supported insurgency in Syria was likely
developed in order to strain or test the mutual aid treaty. Given
that the CFR is now applauding Al-Qaeda for its efforts in
destabilizing the country, I hardly find it outlandish to suggest
that the entire rebellion is being at least loosely organized by NATO
interests to either draw Iran into open military support of Assad and
a weakening proxy war, or to remove Syria from the equation in
preparation for a strike on Iran itself (take notice that whenever
the mainstream media shows images of Syrian rebels, they are always
smiling or looking valiant with guns held high; a typical subliminal
tactic used to paint them as “the good guys”):
2)
Iran Will Shut Down The Strait Of Hormuz
With
all the grandstanding at the Department of Defense, you would think
that the Hormuz is a non-issue. This is a mistake. The strait is
around 21 miles wide at its narrowest point which lays right off the
coast of Iran, however, of that 21 miles only two safe shipping lanes
are available, each measuring a miniscule 2 miles across. Hormuz is
one of two of the most vital oil transit checkpoints in the world,
and approximately 20% of all oil produced passes through it. The
logistics for blocking the two working shipping lanes on the strait
are simple given the existence of the new Ghader Missile System,
which Iran tested successfully this year. The weapon is specifically
designed as a “ship-killer” with the ability to travel at Mach 3,
and evade most known radar methods:
In
the tightly boxed in waterways of the Hormuz, a large scale and
difficult to track missile attack would be devastating to any Navy
present, and would turn the sea lanes into a junk yard impossible to
navigate for oil tankers. Result? A catastrophic inflationary event
in oil around the world, making gasoline unaffordable for most people
and most uses. The EU’s recent move to stockpile oil in preparation
for an Iran strike reveals the seriousness of the situation:
3)
Israeli Action Will Draw In The U.S.
Forget
what the U.S. Joint Chief of Staff General Martin Dempsey says; the
U.S. will absolutely involve itself militarily in Iran or Syria
following an Israeli strike. To begin with, there is no way around a
supporting or primary role, especially when Iran closes the Strait of
Hormuz. With 20% of the world’s oil supply on hiatus, at least half
of the American populace will be crying out for U.S. military
involvement. Guaranteed. Dempsey’s claim that Israel may not get
American support is simply a charade meant to infer that the
subversion of Syria and Iran is not necessarily a joint venture,
which it absolutely is. There is zero chance that an Israeli strike
will not be met with frantic calls by the Pentagon and the White
House to open the floodgates of U.S. military might and protect one
of our few “democratic allies” in the Middle East.
4)
Syria Will Receive Support From Russia And China
The
Russian government has clearly stated on numerous occasions that they
will not step back during a strike against Syria, and has even begun
positioning naval ships and extra troops at is permanent base off the
coast of Tartus, a development which I have been warning about for years
Tartus
is Russia’s only naval base outside the periphery of its borders,
and is strategically imperative to the nation. Action by the U.S. or
Israel against Syria would invariably elicit, at the very least,
economic retaliation, and at the most, Russian military involvement
and possible widespread war.
China,
on the other hand, will likely respond with full scale financial
retaliation, up to and including a dump of U.S. Treasury Bonds (a
move which they have been preparing for since 2005 anyway). With oil
prices skyrocketing due to increased Middle Eastern distress,
multiple countries including the BRIC trading bloc nations and most
of the ASEAN trading bloc will have the perfect excuse to dump the
dollar, allowing for the introduction of the IMF’s newly revamped
SDR (Special Drawing Rights) global currency mechanism to take hold.
Syria
is the key to what I believe will be an attempt on the part of
globalists within our government to actually coax a volatile conflict
into being, a conflict that will create ample cover for the final
push towards global currency, and eventually, global governance.
5)
Economic Implosion Will Become “Secondary”…To The Banksters’
Benefit
In
the minds of the general public, the economic distress that we will
soon face regardless of whether or not there is ever a war with Iran
and Syria will be an afterthought, at least for a time, if the threat
of global combat becomes reality. The fog of war is a fantastic cover
for all kind of crime, most especially the economic kind. Sizable
wars naturally inhibit markets and cause erratic flux in capital
flows. Anything, and I mean anything, can be blamed on a war, even
the destruction of the U.S. economy and the dollar. Of course, the
real culprits (international and central banks) which have been
corrupting and dismantling the American fiscal structure for decades
will benefit most from the distraction.
Syria
and Iran are, in a way, the first dominos in a long chain of terrible
events. This chain, as chaotic as it seems, leads to only one end
result: Third world status for almost every country on the planet,
including the U.S., leaving the financial institutions, like monetary
grim reapers, to swoop in and gather up the pieces that remain to be
fashioned into a kind of Frankenstein economy. A fiscal golem. A
global monstrosity that removes all sovereignty whether real or
imagined and centralizes the decision making processes of humanity
into the hands of a morally bankrupt few.
For
those on the side of Israel, the U.S., and NATO, and for those on the
side of the Middle East, Russia China, etc., the bottom line is,
there will be no winners. There is no "best case scenario".
There will be no victory parade, for anyone. There will be no great
reformation or peace in the cradle of civilization. The only people
celebrating at the end of the calamitous hostilities will be the
hyper-moneyed power addicted .01%, who will celebrate their global
coup in private, laughing as the rest of the world burns itself out,
and comes begging them for help.
