Where is Egypt headed?

by Thierry Meyssan

Where is Egypt headed?

Damascus (Syria) | 25 April 2016
For the last five years, the history of Egypt, like that of many other Arab states, has been a succession of conspiracies, violence, announcements and denials. Everything that international public opinion has believed at one moment or another has been called into question by new elements. Thierry Meyssan attempts here to separate truth from fiction, while asking what the current President al-Sissi is still hiding.

The Orphaned Near East

The Orphaned Near East

Damascus (Syria) | 23 April 2016
The world changes suddenly, but we only notice the fact a long time afterwards. Thierry Meyssan, who, in 2012, announced the arrival of Russia in Syria – which we only saw three years later – today announces the withdrawal of the two Superpowers from the Near East.

Vladimir Putin and François Hollande

Two Heads of State face their fellow citizens

by Thierry Meyssan

Two Heads of State face their fellow citizens

Damascus (Syria) | 18 April 2016
Although the economic situation in Russia is much more difficult than in France, Russian TV viewers massively followed the programme « Direct Line with Vladimir Putin », while the French showed scarce interest in « Citizen Dialogues with François Hollande ». The audience levels of the two programmes correspond to the public support garnered respectively by each political figure. For Thierry Meyssan, contrary to the dogmas of communication gurus, TV viewers and the electorate are not swayed by poor economic indicators, but rather by their president’s capacity as a leader or as a simple manager.

Turkish Supremacy

by Thierry Meyssan

Turkish Supremacy

Damascus (Syria) | 17 April 2016
The Turkish President, Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, has repeatedly brought up the option of depriving a tenth of the population of their Turkish nationality. These are far from declarations issued by a court. We have here the application of the supremacist theory of Millî Görüş, an Islamic organization, of which he was one of the directors and which he claims to have left. If such an option were to be implemented, it would open a new regional war.

Will President Erdoğan Succeed in Depriving 5 Million Turks of Their Nationality?

by Thierry Meyssan

Will President Erdoğan Succeed in Depriving 5 Million Turks of Their Nationality?

Damascus (Syria) | 14 April 2016
As they evolve. President Erdoğan’s declarations stray more and more from universal values. While in the West, people are beginning to emit feeble criticisms of the so-called "authoritarian drift" of Ankara, Thierry Meyssan continues his narration of the establishment of a dictatorship based on the supremacy of Turkish ethnicity and "Islamic values".

Why the «Panama Papers »?

by Thierry Meyssan

Why the «Panama Papers »?

Damascus (Syria) | 13 April 2016
Contrary to what may appear to be the case, the «Panama Papers» campaign will not lead to restraining embezzlements of funds, nor to expanding liberties, but the exact opposite. The system is going to consolidate a bit more around the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, the United States and Israel, so that these and only these will control it. By violating the principle of equality before the Law and their professional ethics, the members of the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists have put themselves at the service of the enemies of liberty and the defenders of Big Capital. The fact that they had pinned down in the process some crooks will not change anything. Explanations.

Who will be the next President of the United States?

by Thierry Meyssan

Who will be the next President of the United States?

Damascus (Syria) | 4 April 2016
Thierry Meyssan analyses the political and electoral system of the United States. He believes that the only true issue of the Presidential election is the maintenance of power in the hands of the WASPs, which has never been contested since the Declaration of Independence. While Ted Cruz and Hillary Clinton are the guarantors of this status, the candidacy of Donald Trump announces a profound upheaval of the system which will only occur once the Anglo-Saxons become the minority.

The motive for the attacks in Paris and Brussels

by Thierry Meyssan

The motive for the attacks in Paris and Brussels

Damascus (Syria) | 28 March 2016
We don’t yet know who ordered the attacks in Paris and Brussels. Several potential leads have been mentioned, but only the hypothesis of an operation decided by Turkey has any serious backing. Thierry Meyssan describes the secret conflict which, for the last five years, has haunted the relations between the Europan Union, France and Turkey.

Facing Turkey, Europe chooses suicide

by Thierry Meyssan

Facing Turkey, Europe chooses suicide

Damascus (Syria) | 21 March 2016
By signing an agreement with Turkey to slow the influx of refugees – which happens to be illegal in international law – the leaders of the European Union have taken a step further in their pact with the devil. A large part of the 3 billion Euros annually allotted to Ankara will serve to finance support for the jihadists, and as a result will increase the number of migrants who are fleeing the war. Above all, by repealing the visa regulations with Turkey in the next few months, the Europeans are establishing free circulation between the Al-Qaïda camps in Turkey and Brussels. By crushing the Iraqi and Syrian people under the pressure of the jihadists whom they are indirectly financing, and abandoning the Turkish people to the dictatorship of President Erdoğan, they are preparing the foundations for a vast confrontation of which they will themselves be the (...)

Russia and Victory

by Thierry Meyssan

Russia and Victory

Damascus (Syria) | 17 March 2016
The announcement of the partial withdrawal of the Russian Army from Syria has spawned a great number of commentaries which illustrate the preconceived bias of their authors rather than reality. Thierry Meyssan points out that the facts demonstrate not only that the differences between Moscow and Damascus have been resolved, but that Russia – which managed to topple the Western powers into the anti-terrorist camp – intends to allow Syrians to liberate their territory by themselves.

Towards a new war in Lebanon

by Thierry Meyssan

Towards a new war in Lebanon

Beirut (Lebanon) | 15 March 2016
Lebanon has not been respecting its own constitution since May 2008, and no longer has a budget reserve. The country today is essentially adrift, and has once again become an easy prey for Israël. The failure of the operation against Syria has forced the colonial parties to seek a new target. While a second civil war can still be avoided, it will be difficult to avoid a new invasion.

The nuclear Near East!

by Thierry Meyssan

The nuclear Near East!

Damascus (Syria) | 7 March 2016
While the West was applying pressure on Iran to abandon its civilian nuclear programme, the Saudis were buying the atomic bomb from Israel or Pakistan. From now on, to everyone’s surprise, the Near East has become a nuclear zone, dominated by Israel and Saudi Arabia.

Moscow, a rampart against the jihadists

by Thierry Meyssan

Moscow, a rampart against the jihadists

Damascus (Syria) | 29 February 2016
Since 2012, Moscow has been trying to rally the Western powers to its cause – to defend civilisation against jihadism, as the world was once united against Nazism. In order to do so, it first of all dissociated the White House from the combatants that the United States call « rebels », and whom Moscow regards as « jihadists ». Today, it is trying to isolate Turkey. Far from being a diplomatic epiphenomenon, the cessation of hostilities in Syria marks an about-face. Washington has just admitted that there are no « moderate » armed groups, or none left.

How Turkey supports the jihadists

by Thierry Meyssan

How Turkey supports the jihadists

Damascus (Syria) | 22 February 2016
Russia questioned the future of Turkey when it delivered to the Security Council an intelligence report concerning Turkey’s activities in support of jihadists. The document includes about ten revelations which implicate the activities of the MIT. The problem is that each of the operations listed refers back to operations in which the same actors worked with the United States or their allies against Russia. This information adds to that which is already available concerning the personal connections between President Erdoğan and the Al-Qaïda banker, and the information about Erdoğan’s son and the illegal use of the oil stolen by Daesh.

The USA and Russia become allies in Syria

by Thierry Meyssan

The USA and Russia become allies in Syria

Damascus (Syria) | 15 February 2016
The meeting of the International Syria Support Group seems to have marked the takeover of the Syrian situation by the White House, to the detriment of the « neo-conservatives » and the « liberal hawks ». The final declaration imposes supervision of the UNO by the US and Russia, which removes Jeffrey Feltman from his prerogatives. It imposes free circulation of humanitarian aid and the end of hostilities. The formula chosen legitimises Russian military action, not only against the al-Nusra Front and Daesh, but also against Ahrar el-Sham and Jaysh el-Islam. However, the declaration does not mention the Franco-British project for the creation of a pseudo-Kurdistan.

Mass Psychology

by Thierry Meyssan

Ted Cruz PsyOp

Damascus (Syria) | 8 February 2016
For the first time in History, a team specialised in psychological operations is attempting to fabricate a candidate for the US Presidential elections and win him a home in the White House. His victory, if they succeed, would prove that it is possible to falsify the electoral process itself. It would also call into question the power of the military on civil institutions.

Geneva 3

Towards peace in Syria without armed opposition

by Thierry Meyssan

Towards peace in Syria without armed opposition

Damascus (Syria) | 1 February 2016
The Geneva 3 negotiations for peace in Syria have just begun, after the pro-Saudi opposition finally submitted to the demands of the US State Department and agreed to participate. However, observes Thierry Meyssan, while Washington and Moscow were hoping for a rapid peace agreement in December, and adopted Resolution 2254, the United States are now convinced that the leaders chosen by Riyadh are incapable of exercising power.

Germany and the UNO against Syria

Germany and the UNO against Syria

Damascus (Syria) | 28 January 2016
The neo-conservatives and liberal hawks who have been preparing the war against Syria since 2001 have been relying on several states from the UNO and the Gulf Co-operation Council. While we know about the role played by General David Petraeus in launching and pursuing the war until today, two personalities - Jeffrey Feltman (number 2 at the UNO) and Volker Perthes (Director of the main German think tank) - have remained in the shadows. Together, with the support of Berlin, they have been using and are still manipulating the United Nations in order to destroy Syria.

China deploys in the Near East

China deploys in the Near East

Damascus (Syria) | 25 January 2016
The Chinese President, Xi Jinping, has embarked on a tour of Saudi Arabia, Egypt and the Islamic Republic of Iran. Officially, he will not be speaking of politics, but only of economy. China is proposing that the states of the Near East participate in the construction of a new « Silk Road » in order to enhance their development and liberate themselves from Western colonialism.

Who organised the attacks of January and November 2015 in Paris?

by Thierry Meyssan

Who organised the attacks of January and November 2015 in Paris?

Damascus (Syria) | 22 January 2016
New information, published by the Croatian daily Slobodna Dalmacija, alleges that the French state was responsible for the attacks which occurred in Paris in January and November 2015. Either the French authorities had previously infiltrated the groups which perpetrated these attacks, and chose not to intervene to prevent them, or else they were directly implicated in the organisation of the attacks. In any case, it remains to be determined who made these decisions, and whether or not he was acting on behalf of the Republic.

State of the Union address 2016

Obama - My combat

by Thierry Meyssan

Obama - My combat

Damascus (Syria) | 19 January 2016
The last State of the Union address by President Obama was the occasion of a vigourous panegyric in favour of his country, in all points the best « on Earth » (sic). Unfortunately, his magnificent rhetoric was not based on a single convincing argument. His splendid oratory was thus unable to mask the reality of the decline of the United States, the result being that his Republican adversaries have made it the theme of their campaign.

Towards the collapse of Saudi Arabia

by Thierry Meyssan

Towards the collapse of Saudi Arabia

Damascus (Syria) | 11 January 2016
While the Saud family enjoys the last few moments of its dictatorship, the decapitation of the leader of the opposition, Nimr al-Nimr, deprives half of the Saudi population of all hope. For Thierry Meyssan, the fall of the kingdom has become inevitable. It will probably be accompanied by a long period of extreme violence.

How Bulgaria supplied drugs and weapons to Al-Qaïda and Daesh

Damascus (Syria) | 4 January 2016
The best-kept secrets must be revealed in the end. The mafia cartel which governs Bulgaria has been caught supplying drugs and weapons to Al-Qaïda and Daesh, at the demand of the CIA, both in Libya and Syria. The affair is all the more serious since Bulgaria is a member of NATO and the European Union.

From the Geneva Communiqué to Resolution 2254

by Thierry Meyssan

From the Geneva Communiqué to Resolution 2254

Damascus (Syria) | 21 December 2015
The terms of Resolution 2254 mostly confirm those of the Geneva Communiqué, which was adopted three years ago. The two greatest military powers in the world agree that the Syrian Arab Republic should be maintained, while the imperialists - with France in the front line – pursue their dream of changing the Syrian régime by force. But the world has changed over the last few years, and it will not be as easy to sabotage this new agreement as it was in 2012.

Military operations in preparation in and around Syria

by Thierry Meyssan

Military operations in preparation in and around Syria

Damascus (Syria) | 14 December 2015
The Western Press doesn’t have much to say about the military operations in Syria, except to affirm, without the slightest proof, that the Coalition is successfully bombing Daesh jihadists while the Russians continue to kill innocent civilians. It is in fact difficult to form a reasonable idea of the current situation, particularly since each side is readying its weapons in preparation for a wider conflict. Thierry Meyssan describes what is going on.

The Climate Pretext 3/3

1997-2010: Financial Ecology

by Thierry Meyssan

1997-2010: Financial Ecology

Damascus (Syria) | 7 December 2015
After serving Henry Kissinger and Margaret Thatcher, environmental rhetoric was reused by Al Gore. This was no longer to divert attention from US wars of Empire, nor to restore the greatness of the British Empire but rather to save Anglo-Saxon capitalism. In this third and final part of his study of environmental discourse, Thierry Meyssan analyzes the preparatory dramatics for the Earth Summit of 2012 and the Cochabamba rebellion.

The unavowable project for a pseudo-Kurdistan

by Thierry Meyssan

The unavowable project for a pseudo-Kurdistan

Damascus (Syria) | 7 December 2015
Paris and London are multiplying their categorical declarations against Daesh, its programme of ethnic cleansing and its terrorist attacks. And yet they are preparing in secret for the ethnic cleansing of Northern Syria with a view to creating a pseudo-Kurdistan, and the re-localisation of Daesh to Al-Anbar in order to create a « Sunnistan » there. Thierry Meyssan analyses this plan, and underlines the numerous contradictions in the official discourse.

Why did Turkey shoot down the Russian Soukhoï 24 ?

by Thierry Meyssan

Why did Turkey shoot down the Russian Soukhoï 24 ?

Damascus (Syria) | 30 November 2015
Turkey made a bad mistake when it shot down the Russian aircraft which had strayed into its airspace for 17 seconds. The operation, conceived to teach Russia not to interfere with the Third Syrian War – designed to create a colonial state in Northern Syria to which the Turkish Kurds would be transferred – had the opposite effect. Moscow has reinforced its anti-aircraft capacities in Syria, and has isolated Turkey. Ankara has now lost the benefit of the secret oral agreement it had concluded with Hafez el-Assad. And London, Paris and Tel-Aviv no longer know how to implement their plan.

France and Israël launch a new war in Iraq and Syria

by Thierry Meyssan

France and Israël launch a new war in Iraq and Syria

Skopje (Macedonia) | 23 November 2015
On one hand, the French government is mobilising all its media in order to keep its population focused on the attacks of the 13th November. On the other, with Israël, it is launching a new war in Iraq and Syria. The objective is no longer to overthrow the secular Syrian régime, nor to destroy its army, but to create a colonial state straddling the border between Iraq and Syria, to be managed by the Kurds, in order to apply a stranglehold on the Arab states. The dream of an Israeli nation between the Nile and the Euphrates is back.

The French Republic taken hostage

by Thierry Meyssan

The French Republic taken hostage

Damascus (Syria) | 17 November 2015
The war which has now spread to Paris is incomprehensible for those French citizens who are ignorant of practically all the secret activities of their government in the Arab world, of its unnatural alliances with the Gulf dictators, and its active participation in international terrorism. These policies have never been discussed in Parliament, and the major media have rarely dared to take an interest in them.
