“The Art of War”

The « American Party » within the institutions of the European Union

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 20 March 2019
The European Parliament has just adopted a resolution which requires that the Union stop considering Russia as a strategic partner, but rather as an enemy of humanity. At the same time, the Commission sent a warning about the Chinese threat. Everything is unfolding as if the United States were manœuvering the Union into playing a part in their own supremacist strategy.

The lies of Algerian Power

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 19 March 2019
The criteria that we habitually use in politics to explain power games do not apply to Algeria. Its current leaders are above all impostors who have fabricated, one by one, false biographies in order to obtain the consideration of their compatriots. Inch by inch, they have clawed their way to the highest summit of the State. They hold their positions there by the will of the great powers who pretend to believe their fables in order the better to manipulate them.

The price of US « protection » is skyrocketing

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 14 March 2019
The United States intend to consider their allies as protectorates no longer. Consequently, the US is asking them to pay the cost of their protection, failing which, it will withdraw. Such was President Trump’s announcement on 17 January at the Pentagon. It was presented at NATO in February, but was only made public this week. It is a decision which applies to all the allies, from Japan to Germany. The problem is that Washington is also asking its allies to align with US positions… just as they did as protectorates.

The deception of international penal Justice

The ICC intends to violate the decision of the Security Council and try Bachar el-Assad

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 12 March 2019
Everyone believed it to be impossible for the International Criminal Court (ICC) to try the Syrians, since China and Russia exercised their vetos against a Western draft resolution to do so. But no! A piece of legal sleight of hand may make it possible to dodge the decision of the Security Council. The Court hopes to incriminate President Bachar el-Assad, not for the murder of Rafic Hariri (that lie fizzled out some time ago), but for « crimes against humanity ».

Italian special forces at Camp Darby

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 5 March 2019
The reorganisation of the US base Camp Darby (Italy) masks the transfer of special forces to US command. This system already existed in the past. It was this mechanism which enabled the creation of Gladio, the service for NATO’s secret actions in Italy. Since December 2015 (article 7bis of Law 198), the President of the Italian Council has the possibility of pursuing military operations by Intelligence operations. This news gives more weight to the hypothesis that we published two months ago – NATO is preparing a wave of attacks in Europe.

From Iraqi weapons of mass destruction to Syrian chemical weapons

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 5 March 2019
In a report dated 1 March 2019, the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) attests to the fact that were never any prohibited chemical substances in Douma (Syria) during the attack of 7 April 2018. The reprisal tripartite bombing (United States, France, United Kingdom) was therefore unjustified. This scandal is exactly identical to the story of the bogus Iraqi weapons of mass destruction. It will be followed by many other items of fake news as long as the West continues to trust their medias.

Jihadism and high treason

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 26 February 2019
European citizens who were encouraged to join the armed struggle in Syria alongside the pro-Western mercenaries can not be pursued for collaboration with the enemy as long as they can claim the support of NATO and its member-states. The European states can not bring them to trial without examining the prime responsibility of their own leaders for the war against Syria.

The CIA is using Turkey to pressure China

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 19 February 2019
While Turkey has fostered economic links with China in order to solve its economic crisis, it has also publicly denounced the repression of the Uyghurs, basing its accusations on false information. Beijing sent a very cold reply. Everything is happening, now that Daesh has disappeared from Iraq and Syria, as if Ankara was once again running secret operations on behalf of the CIA, this time in Xinjiang.

The rapprochement between Paris and Berlin

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 15 February 2019
This is an extremely serious matter – under the appearance of uniting their efforts to work for peace, Paris and Berlin are linking their foreign policies, and will soon be linking their Defence policies. In reality, this evolution is proceeding from the top down, without consulting the population, and is destroying their democratic acquisitions.

Ukraine : NATO in the Constitution

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 13 February 2019
Moving always further away from democratic principles, the Ukrainian parliament has outlawed political parties and personalities who contest the project of membership of NATO and the European Union.

Can Venezuela and its neighbours survive the coming war?

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 12 February 2019
The crisis which is destabilising Venezuela, like those which are beginning in Nicaragua and Haïti, needs to be analysed in order to enable us to address it. Thierry Meyssan reminds us of three interpretative hypotheses and argues in favour of one of them. He evokes the US strategy and the ways in which it may be countered.

Iran is cornered

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 7 February 2019
The United States are preparing to organise the « Greater Middle East » without their troops. They will probably capitalise on the errors committed over the last five years by Iran in order to create a Judeo-Sunni military alliance, dubbed the « Arab NATO » by the Press, who will be sent to fight the Chiites.

Washington, the logic of force

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 7 February 2019
During the attacks on 11 September 2001, Secretary for Defense Donald Rumsfeld and his advisor, Arthur Cebrowski, defined the Pentagon’s need to dominate the entire planetary battle-field (Full-Spectrum Dominance) in order to maintain the unipolarity of the world. This is exactly what the United States are attempting today.

The US burial of the INF Treaty with European complicity

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 6 February 2019
The Pentagon has decided to install medium-range nuclear missiles in Europe, which would turn this territory into a battle-field in case of a war between the two Great Powers. It’s no surprise that NATO and the European Union have approved the suicide of the European nations.

The 116th US Congress is preparing a new war against Syria

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 31 January 2019
We were wrong to think that the Syrians were out of danger after their victory over the jihadists. They are not. Israël and the United States have not abandoned their war objective of the destruction of state structures. They are preparing a new war, this time financial, in order to prevent the reconstruction of the country and condemn the Syrian people to rot in the ruins.

Venezuela, a putsch by the US deep state

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 30 January 2019
Finally, President Trump has aligned himself with the ambitions of the US deep state for the destruction of the Caribbean Basin. He has confirmed Vice-President Mike Pence and Senator Marco Rubio in their operation to destabilise Venezuela. He may also support the same two men in their project for Israël and against Syria.

Has Donald Trump been forced to give up ?

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 29 January 2019
Has President Donald Trump abandoned the idea of transforming US politics ? Has he bowed to the ex-ruling class of his country ? Over the last two months, his administration seems to have restructured AfriCom, CentCom and SouthCom. The first military command of the Pentagon has apparently been authorised to join battle against Chinese projects on the African continent ; the second has been engaged to divide the Greater Middle East between Arabs and Persians ; and the third to destroy the State structures of the Caribbean Basin. These new missions are accompanied by a return of the neo-conservatives.

Israël, licensed to kill

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 23 January 2019
During the seven years of war against Syria, Israël continually intervened in secret, lending airborne support to the jihadists in their attempts to overthrow the Republic. Since the end of 2018, Tel-Aviv has changed its tactics, and is now proceeding with vast bombing operations which they no longer bother to hide. Their goal is to hit Iranian targets, with the tacit agreement of Russia. However, these Iranian targets seem to be no more than anecdotal. Simultaneously, Israël, having reached an agreement with the leaders of Hamas which it finances publicly via Qatar, continues to wage its war against the civilians of Gaza.

The use of terrorism according to John Bolton

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 22 January 2019
After having taken back from Daesh the State they had promised, straddling parts of Iraq and Syria, the United States now intend to recuperate some of their mercenaries in order to make use of them in a different manner. National Security Advisor John Bolton has designed new goals, new partners and new methods. Since this new system is secret, we know about it only insofar as parts of the plan have already been implemented. Thierry Meyssan explores this world of violence.

The « great game » of military bases in Africa

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 18 January 2019
Created in 2007 on the findings of an Israëli study, AfriCom (US Command for Africa) has never yet managed to install its headquarters on the continent. This structure carries out anti-terrorist operations from Germany, with the support of France in the region of the Sahel. In return, US and French transnational companies conserve a privileged access to African prime materials.

Re-Colonisation

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 15 January 2019
For Thierry Meyssan, one of the consequences of the successive ends of the bipolar and unipolar world is the re-establishment of colonial projects. One after the other, the French, Turkish and English have publicly declared the return of their colonial ambitions. We still need to know what form they will adopt in the 21st century.

The EU votes for the installation of new US missiles in Europe

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 10 January 2019
The member States of the European Union have unanimously aligned themselves with the military strategy of their American big brother. They have accepted that their own territory may transform itself into a nuclear battleground in the case of conflict between the United States and Russia.

The terrible forthcoming destruction of the « Caribbean Basin »

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 8 January 2019
President Trump has announced the withdrawal of US combat troops from the « Greater Middle East », but the Pentagon is still pursuing the implementation of the Rumsfeld-Cebrowski plan. This time the aim is to destroy the States of the « Caribbean Basin ». This is nothing like the overthrow of pro-Soviet regimes, as in the 1970’s, but the destruction of all regional State structures, without consideration for friends or political enemies. Thierry Meyssan observes the preparations for this new series of wars.

Metamorphosis

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 8 January 2019
We are republishing here the editorial from Al-Watan in which Thierry Meyssan presents to his Syrian readers the withdrawal of US troops from their country. This article includes certain data which has been ignored by the Western medias, and which throw light on the way in which this decision was taken by President Trump with his Saudi and Qatari allies - and his Russian partners.

The United States refuse to fight for the transnational financiers

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 25 December 2018
The US withdrawal from Syria and Afghanistan, as well as the resignation of General Mattis, attest to the upheaval that is shaking the current world order. The United States are no longer the leaders, either on the economic or the military stage. They refuse to keep fighting for the sole interests of the transnational financiers. The alliances that they used to lead will begin to unravel, but without their erstwhile allies admitting the powerful ascension of Russia and China.

The Italian Minister for Defence in military fatigues for « peace » in Afghanistan

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 18 December 2018
Minister for Defence Elisabetta Trenta (5-Star Movement), on the mike of a musical radio station, sang « C’era un ragazzo che come me amava i Beatles e i Rolling Stones » , and declared « This song makes me think about the value of peace, a priceless value that we must always preserve ».
Ten days later, in Afghanistan, the military-garbed Minister praised « our armed presence outside of the frontiers of Italy, guided by the values of our Constitution, on a fundamental mission for peace ». (...)

The United States are preparing a war between Latin-American states

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 18 December 2018
Little by little, the partisans of the Cebrowski doctrine are advancing their pawns. If they must cease creating wars in the Greater Middle East, they’ll just turn around and inflame the Caribbean Basin. Above all, the Pentagon is planning to assassinate an elected head of state, ruin his country, and undermine the unity of Latin-America.

The USA is preparing for a confrontation with Russia and China

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 13 December 2018
The US Commission on the National Defense Strategy was created in 2017 in order to provide Congress with some expertise on the subject. However, its principal source of information is the US Institute of Peace, the equivalent of the NED for the Secretary of Defense. As a result, its bipartisan attitude is in reality the point of view that the Pentagon wants to defend via the Democrat and Republican Parties.

Who does Emmanuel Macron owe?

by Thierry Meyssan

Damascus (Syria) | 11 December 2018
President Macron is often presented as a Rothschild Boy. This is true, but secondary. Thierry Meyssan demonstrates that he owes his electoral campaign mostly to Henry Kravis, the boss of one of the world’s largest financial companies, and to NATO – a considerable debt which weighs heavily today on the solution to the Yellow Vests crisis.

Behind the US attack on Chinese Smartphones

by Manlio Dinucci

Rome (Italy) | 5 December 2018
Donald Trump’s attempt to re-balance the commercial flow between China and the USA does not correspond only to his aim of bringing de-localised jobs back to the United States. Indeed, the deployment of new transport and communications infrastructures is swiftly becoming a threat to the US position as leader of the world. The struggle centred around Huawei illustrates the way in which economic and military preoccupations inter-connect. Already, many States have observed that Washington is so far unable to decode this technology. Thus, as they did in Syria, they have entirely re-equipped their Intelligence services with Huawei material, and forbid their civil servants to use any others.
