Syria’s Assad Struck Because Pacifist Fundamentalism Leads To Horror


Good people will want to, have always wanted to, strike down Syria’s Assad and North Korea’s Kim. Pacifist fundamentalism is worse than an hypocrisy. It brings not just death, but the apocalypse (consider Nazism).

In August 2013, French pilots were in their seats in their fully armed planes, ready to strike Assad, when Obama lost his nerve, or got a call from one of his masters, decided to be worse than a hypocrite. Obama decided it was OK, after all, to use neurotoxic weapons such as Sarin to kill thousands, including children. Neurotoxic weapons against cities can only kill innocent people, such as children.

A Few Of The Hundreds Of Children Assassinated By Nerve Gas In 2013 By War Criminal and Criminal Against Humanity Assad. In Just One Single Attack In Damas (and there hundreds of such attacks). Unsure About Playing Knight In Shining Armor, Or Maybe Paid to Do So, Obama Lost His Nerve At The Last Minute. He Claimed To Stay Cool, Watching This, When He Had the Means to Punish It, and Thus Became A Smirking Accomplice of It. In A Way, It’s Worse Than What Happened In The Nazi Extermination Camps, Because We Had No Picture Of Exterminated Children!

By way of comparison with Assad and Obama, Adolf Hitler, not a humanitarian of renown, decided, in 1945 NOT to use neurotoxic weapons against his ferocious enemies, who were determined, and had declared officially, that they would not stop until they had annihilated Nazi Germany. Nazi stocks of gases such as Sarin were enough to kill dozens of millions, and the Nazi had the means to bring those gases over the targets (Western armies, London, Paris, etc.). In spite of the fact using the neurotoxins could have been imagined by the most crazed Nazis as a way to bring the war to a standstill, the Nazis did not consider using them.

The top Nazis knew all too well that the British, if no one else, would reply in kind. This sort of tit for tat had happened in 1940. The Nazis devastated Coventry. The Brits replied in kind, on a much greater scale. Rightly so.

This is why Hitler did not go fully neurotoxic in 1945.

Trump fired 59 cruise missiles at the Shariat Assad air base in Syria which fired the neurotoxins.

Good.

Barack Obama and the plutocrats in London (who are friends of Bachar El Assad) let humanity down in 2013. Civilization needs to be defended.

It’s telling that Trump, so vomited upon by the pseudo-progressives, is the one defending civilization, whereas their puppet president, who was the object of a cult by the plutocrats that be, did nothing which could upset the enemies of civilization, his, de facto, friends.  Trump’s action is an excellent message for all those who believe they can scare civilization into submission. An excellent way to set up the right context with President Xi of the People Republic of China, visiting the US president at Mar a Lago this weekend, reminding him that civilization without a great wall cannot be defended. But now civilization is one, and the great wall has to be in the minds.

There are great walls which cannot be crossed, because they ought not to be crossed, and the usage of weapons of mass destruction against civilian populations is one of them.

      Assad had stopped using neurotoxins and Sarin in a blatant way, since 2013. However, he started again in the last 2 weeks. Moreover, there is evidence that Russian personel and a Russian drone was used while the Sarin carrying Sukkhoi 22 was loaded and during the strike. Trump was extremely right to put an end to that criminal drift. Trump didn’t need to go to the UN to punish a chemical strike, per SDN law from the 1920s…

      Syrian Air Force has already lost 2/3 of its planes in the war. Around 400 are left. 20 lost in this strike.
      Pictures I saw show the base was essentially destroyed. That runways can be operated is neither here not there.

      When fighting Kaddafi in the desert, decades ago, the French cratered a runway, which was smart, because 1000 miles from the closest water, it was hard to replace, and access (Kaddafi was visiting, the aime was to kill him too) The runway couldn’t be repaiered for years. Not this way in Syria… Tomahawks list at 800K these days…

    A “shot across-the-bow,” is an awesome analogy. For at least today, we can nevermind the arguments about number of planes destroyed, or usefulness of the airport. That trifling bit of data is for the armchair quarterbacks. I am no supporter of Mr. president grab-em, and it took many real pictures of death to wake up his brain. But this is so much better than the brains of our leaders which “did not wake up” and take action several years ago when the gas was used by the same evil entity.
    So now we can enjoy the effects from that shot across-the-bow, both militarily and philosophically, when performed in the name of civilization against the plutocrazed ones.

      When Obama and Trump were in that car, during the inauguration, Obama confided the big problem was North Korea, and he didn’t know what to do. He couldn’t do anything, because nobody serious could take Obama seriously. Obama did strictly nothing serious during his entire presidency, he was just good at looking good. But it takes more that sciolism to impress real malefactors, real evil power (pluto-kratos) monsters…

    • Patrice Ayme Says:

      The French and American republics’ militaries had elaborated a complex attack together. A US Tomahawks’ attack was presumably a crucial part. True, in Libya, the French Air Force attacked on its own, using the Rafales’ ability to intefere electronically with anti-missile systems, while Mirage 2000s conducted the strikes, without waiting for the US missile attack (which was launched at night, 12 hours later). In Libya, the French president forced Obamas’s hand.

      In 2013, Obama yanked the strike decision at the last minute (literally). Clearly the French army couldn’t proceed (the same would have happened if roles had been reversed). If France had lobbed a few cruise missiles, then, as in the 1930s, France would have been accused of aggressivity as she was in the 1930s against the Soviet, Italian and German fascists…

      However the situation in Syria is more complex: at the time Assad had more than 600 warplanes. Moreover, the major air forces of Israel and Turkey patrol the area too.

      The UK did nothing because the UK’s main busines is plutocracy, and the Assad family has billions of property in Western Europe (some of it even in Paris!). Striking one state-plutocrat would have been the wrong message to the united plutocrats of the world (just like the plutocrats hate their own Trump, as Trump sends the wrong message; Trump just attacked fellow plutos Putin and Assad, truly an horror, as far as plutos are concerned…).

      The rest of the EU is a bunch of cowards who learned nothing most important from the Hitlerian adventure. Just like Hitler, they are into veganism, protecting the animals and minorities, for all to see, while loving to be petted by the mightiest plutocrats.

      Merkler tried to make us believe that everything will be OK, as long as we welcome 20 million Syrian refugees, and as long as we don’t use military force (as in Libya). In other words, do as in the 1930s, up to that dreadful year of 1939, when the French Republic declared war to Merkler’s predecessor, Hitler himself…

          Well, for all too long, intellectuals in Europe have been confused. The last ones less confused were Nietzsche and his student (and imitator) Camus.

          Before WWII, French intellectuals were confusing Stalin with a Communist (very few doubted: Camus, Aron). During WWII, rose the likes of Sartre and De Beauvoir. Sartre was smart enough to pretend being in the resistance after a few years of entertaining the Wehrmacht (as Vichy official Mitterand did, when he saw the GIs in the distance). De Beauvoir was a fanatical Nazi. That’s dreadful, considering that she is one of a handfull of female philsophers of the 20th century…

          After WWII, most French intellectuals switched to the new master, US plutocracy. So they were against the French empire (to replace it by the American empire), and for Mao (so that Nixon-Kissinger could travel there and look good).

          In recent years, a number of French intellectuals have risen against this madness. First there were the confused “New Philsophers”, billionaire Pluto BHL being the most obvious (he censors my comments on his sites, then steal their ideas…) BHL is not all bad (just as Sartre and De Beuavoir were not all bad). However BHL is very courageous, and I admire some of his insanity.

          Even more recently, the likes of Finkielkraut, now at the Academy (thanks Hades!) and Eric Zemour have piled critques against Islamofascism and respect thereof. Zenmour was judicially harassed, just as Marine Le Pen (who long led the presidential polls this year).
          Michel Onfray, popular French philosopher and atheist. Onfray attacks Islam and other monotheistic religions, speaking of “Muslim fascism” that has risen with the Islamic Revolution in Iran, and considers Islamic teachings to be “structurally archaic

          France, as a state, had no idea for at least 10 years.
          By the way, the “whole saudi oil goldman etc pluto complex” is pretty much dissected only on this site. The closest politician revealing it is French leftist Melanchon, who is running strong in the French presidency (ahead of the traditional pro-Wall Street Socialist Benoit Hamon…). Melanchon explicitly said that Islamism lived from the fossil fuel preponderance.

      The point is that International Law against chemical weapons from the 1920s has to be enforced. That was shortly after Churchill used them.
      https://www.theguardian.com/world/shortcuts/2013/sep/01/winston-churchill-shocking-use-chemical-weapons

      The racist fascist invading exterminationists Prussianized Germans made a massive surprise chemical attack in World War One, in the hope of breaking the Franco-British front inside France. They killed more than 6,000 French troops within minutes. However, the anticipated breaktrough didn’t work out as the gas slowed the vicious Germans down, and the French moved reserves and artillery. Afterwards the French and British had to scramble to use gas against the proto-Nazi swines, just to hold the front.

      So Assad had, and has, to be punished. However, I am not opposed for him to be replaced by another, cleaner Alawite general. That was always my position. Assad is from an enormously wealthy Pluto family. Preserving Assad Pluto status was his main initial goal. Assad does not care about Alawites as much as he claims, otherwise he won’t be piling so much hatred against them.

      Pipeline considerations could well become moot, considering the shrinking icecaps. Amusingly, if the stupid Bannon is removed by Trump, there is more hope for a carbon tax. Bannon was against the strike against Assad, BTW. At least that’s all very logical…

    As for Hitler not using it, I think Hitler may not have been relevant here. The Generals would know that the military value of it is actually rather pathetic, and in general it is more trouble than it is worth. The deployment of it in Syria is actually rather pointless, but you raise a good point – sarin is not that difficult to make if you have the precursors and a sophisticated facility, but I don’t see the Syrians as having those, so where does it come from?

      The city that was struck with Sarin, causing the reaction of Trump, had been struck several times with chlorine gas in preceding weeks, including an attack just 2 days prior. In those cases, people most struck were inside houses.
      With Sarin, the gas, an aerosol, goes everywhere.

      I tried not to make the argument Sarin is easy to make. When made copious amounts of acid are made too, with neutralize it. So prefer system involve a binary. A 155mm Sarin shells was exploded on a US convoy in Iraq by insurgents. Only two GIs were incommodated: the sheel was binary and supposed to rotate quickly for mixing during explosion, or then the contents were too old, self-neutralized. The Sarin is Syria was fresh.

      Hitler had up to ten tons of Sarin (A 1939 German discovery), quite a bit in artillery shells. The Nazis had also tons of weaponized other nerve agents. They didn’t use them, because it was too horrible, they all agreed. At least on the elite race…

      The Syrians had more than 2,000 tons of nerve agents destroyed after the Obama deal, so they know how to do it. Sarin has to be remade or reconditioned anyway, so the destruction of these 2,000 tons would have happen anyway…

      The Assad regime is using gas to win. It used nerve gas probably hundreds of times since the Obama deal, and it was certified twice by the UN in 2014, and 2015. One attack shortly before the last one killed an orthopedic doctor… I am a strong believer in conspiracies, and I do believe Assad has been protected in the UK because of his Pluto connections… However Syrians make their own Sarin, no doubt… For a state, ain’t hard. For insurgent, impossible.
