Secretary of State Hillary Clinton is calling for an R2P humanitarian military intervention in Syria
to curb the atrocities allegedly ordered by the government of president Bashar Al Assad.
In a twisted logic,
Clinton recognizes that while “opposition forces” are integrated by Al Qaeda affiliated terrorists,
the government rather than the terrorists is held responsible,
without a shred of evidence,
for the ongoing massacre of civilians.
The killings are carried out quite deliberately as part of a diabolical covert operation.
The enemy is then blamed for the resulting atrocities.
The objective is to justify a military agenda on humanitarian grounds.
In US military jargon,
it’s called a “massive casualty producing event”, the historical origins of which go back to “Operation Northwoods”,
an infamous 1962 Pentagon Plan, consisting in killing civilians in the Miami Cuban community,
with a view to justifying a war on Cuba.

“Code named Operation Northwoods, the plans reportedly included the possible assassination of Cuban émigrés,
sinking boats of Cuban refugees on the high seas, hijacking planes, blowing up a U.S. ship,
and even orchestrating violent terrorism in U.S. cities.
The plans were developed as ways to trick the American public and the international community
into supporting a war to oust Cuba’s then new leader, communist Fidel Castro.”

In the logic of Operation Northwoods, the killings in Syria are carried out to “create a helpful wave of indignation”,
to drum up public opinion in favor of an R2P US-NATO operation against Syria.
“The international community cannot sit idly by, and we won’t”, said US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton.
What lies behind this outburst of humanitarian concern by “the international community”.
Is America coming to the rescue of the Syrian people?
What is the real reason for America’s war on Syria?
