First NATO-ME War Overturns Regional Order

First NATO-ME War Overturns Regional Order

Damascus (Syria) | 24 March 2020
While Europeans and Arabs are being absorbed by the coronavirus, Anglo-Saxons are changing the world order. Under US command, the United Kingdom took control of the Red Sea entrance; the United Arab Emirates turned on Saudi Arabia and inflicted a bitter defeat on South Yemen, while the Houthis did the same in North Yemen. Yemen is now split into two separate states and the territorial integrity of Saudi Arabia is threatened.

Covid-19: propaganda and manipulation

Covid-19: propaganda and manipulation

Damascus (Syria) | 21 March 2020
Returning to the Covid-19 epidemic and the way governments are reacting to it, Thierry Meyssan stresses that the authoritarian decisions of Italy and France have no medical justification. They contradict the observations of the best infectiologists and the instructions of the World Health Organization.

The world after the pandemic

by Thierry Meyssan

The world after the pandemic

Damascus (Syria) | 17 March 2020
The political reactions to the Covid-19 pandemic reveal surprising weaknesses in Western democracies: prejudice and ignorance. On the contrary, China and Cuba appear more capable of facing the future.

Which target after Syria?

Which target after Syria?

Damascus (Syria) | 10 March 2020
Events in the "Broader Middle East" since 2001 have followed a relentless logic. The current question is whether the time has come for a new war in Turkey or Saudi Arabia. The answer depends in particular on the resumption of hostilities in Libya. It is in this context that the Additional Protocol negotiated by Presidents Erdoğan and Putin to resolve the Idleb crisis must be interpreted.

Western propaganda against Turkey

by Thierry Meyssan

Western propaganda against Turkey

Damascus (Syria) | 4 March 2020
While pretending to protect Turkey, Western propaganda hides its calls for help. The problem is by no means the clashes with the Russian army at Idleb, nor the fate of the families of jihadists, it is much more serious. The world is a cruel place. It is not by blinding ourselves that we will be able to come to the aid of threatened populations.

Propaganda

The fabrication of the myth of the "Syrian revolution" by the United Kingdom

by Thierry Meyssan

The fabrication of the myth of the "Syrian revolution" by the United Kingdom

Damascus (Syria) | 25 February 2020
New documents have leaked on the organization of British propaganda against Syria. They provide insight into how bona fide journalists could have been permanently intoxicated by the myth of the "Syrian revolution" and why the UK withdrew from Syria despite the success of this operation.

"NATO Go Home!"

by Thierry Meyssan

"NATO Go Home!"

Damascus (Syria) | 18 February 2020
For two decades, US troops have been imposing their law on the broader Middle East. Entire countries are now without a state to defend them. Populations have been subjected to the dictatorship of the Islamists. Mass murders have been committed. There have been famines as well. President Donald Trump has forced his generals to repatriate their soldiers, but the Pentagon intends to continue its work with NATO soldiers.

The interpretation of the Shoah

by Thierry Meyssan

The interpretation of the Shoah

Damascus (Syria) | 5 February 2020
At the end of the Second World War, the Nazis massacred European Jews and Gypsies. Today’s interpretation of one of these genocides is based on a lack of knowledge of the human condition and carries with it many passions, which, far from avoiding its repetition, on the contrary favour it.

The deal of the century

by Thierry Meyssan

The deal of the century

Damascus (Syria) | 4 February 2020
The document released this week by the White House, Peace to Prosperity, should be taken for what it is: a proposal to work on a new basis, not a definitive peace plan. For Thierry Meyssan, instead of protesting against this project, it must be examined. It is an opportunity to unblock a situation that has been rotting for three quarters of a century.

Changing political regimes?

by Thierry Meyssan

Changing political regimes?

Damascus (Syria) | 29 January 2020
In 48 countries simultaneously, there are very large demonstrations challenging the political regime of the state. The supremacy of the democratic model, accepted by almost everyone at the end of the 20th century, is now being called into question. For Thierry Meyssan, no constitutional system will solve today’s problems, which are primarily the consequence of values and behaviour.

German Ambitions in the Wider Middle East

by Thierry Meyssan

German Ambitions in the Wider Middle East

Damascus (Syria) | 29 January 2020
75 years after the Second World War, Germany intends to become a power on the international stage once again. It has chosen to return to the expanded Middle East. But it is difficult and dangerous to rise to this level without any experience other than historical.

Iran’s drift towards US and Israeli behaviour

by Thierry Meyssan

Iran's drift towards US and Israeli behaviour

Damascus (Syria) | 21 January 2020
Beyond the showdown between Washington and Tehran, Thierry Meyssan highlights the profound change in Iran’s behaviour. This country, which used to be very observant of international law, now disregards it, joining the United States and Israel, which have never recognized it.

Behind the Scenes of U.S./Iran Relations

by Thierry Meyssan

Behind the Scenes of U.S./Iran Relations

Damascus (Syria) | 14 January 2020
By having Iranian General Qassem Soleimani assassinated in Iraq, President Trump nearly provoked the Third World War. At least that is the version of the US opposition and the international press. For Thierry Meyssan, what happens behind the scenes is very different from the show on stage. According to him, there is a move towards a coordinated military withdrawal of the United States and Iran from the Middle East.

Preparing for a new war

by Thierry Meyssan

Preparing for a new war

Damascus (Syria) | 7 January 2020
The arrival of new weapons and fighters in Libya heralds a new war against the population. In reality, the situation has never calmed down since the attack by NATO in accordance with the Rumsfelf/Cebrowski strategy of endless war. By taking a further step, the protagonists will not solve anything, but will extend the conflict zone.

For the European Union, the time has come to use force

by Thierry Meyssan

For the European Union, the time has come to use force

Damascus (Syria) | 31 December 2019
The new European Commission has clearly stated its project in the era of US withdrawal: to restore Western Europe’s dominance over the rest of the world from the 16th to the 19th century. To achieve this, it is adopting a trumped-up ideology that uses the vocabulary of its philosophers in the wrong way. This posture would be laughable if it could not lead to war.

Fake wars and big lies (11/25)

The Two Frances

by Thierry Meyssan

The Two Frances

Damascus (Syria) | 30 December 2019
We continue the episodic publication of Thierry Meyssan’s book, Before Our Eyes. In this episode, France appears divided: on the one hand, the President plays into the hands of the Anglo-Saxons and his Gaullist rival into the hands of Qatar, while two very right-wing ministers rely on former Libyan Prime Minister Baghdadi Mahmoudi to defend the Libyan people. In this moment of truth, each actor must position himself with fear in his stomach. Few will remain true to themselves.

Lebanon: the background to the banking crisis of the century

by Thierry Meyssan

Lebanon: the background to the banking crisis of the century

Damascus (Syria) | 17 December 2019
The collapse of the Central Bank of Lebanon following a major state scam plunged the country into an unparalleled economic and financial crisis. The country is now paying for its 76 years of political dependence and 8 years of complete political vacancy. The reality of its situation is very different from the perception of its citizens.

NATO Wants to Become the Atlantic-Pacific Alliance

NATO Wants to Become the Atlantic-Pacific Alliance

Damascus (Syria) | 12 December 2019
No one stops the Pentagon. While the military deployment project around China mentioned by Hillary Clinton in 2011 had officially been abandoned, NATO had just had it endorsed by the London Summit. The process has been launched and is expected to start with Australia’s accession in 2026.

Fake wars and big lies (9/25)

France Manipulated

by Thierry Meyssan

France Manipulated

Damascus (Syria) | 11 December 2019
We are continuing the publication of Thierry Meyssan’s book, “Before Our Very Eyes, Fake Wars and Big Lies”. In this episode, the author shows that post-colonial France was recruited by the United Kingdom and the United States to join the wars against Libya and Syria, without both powers informing her about their "Arab Spring" project. The French leaders, caught up in the misappropriation of funds, saw nothing coming. When they realized that they were being kept out of the planning process, their reaction was purely communicative: they tried to appear as the admirals of the operation, without worrying about the consequences of their partners’ actions.

Multilateralism or International Law?

by Thierry Meyssan

Multilateralism or International Law?

Damascus (Syria) | 11 December 2019
Contrary to popular belief, the multilateralism promoted by Europeans is not opposed to the bilateralism practiced today by the United States, but to international law. The "Paris Peace Forum", organised by President Emmanuel Macron, did not identify any method to prevent conflicts, just to try to save what remains of four centuries of European hegemony.

Fake wars and big lies (8/25)

The Agony of French Foreign Policy

by Thierry Meyssan

The Agony of French Foreign Policy

Damascus (Syria) | 2 December 2019
We are continuing the publication of Thierry Meyssan’s book, Before Our Very Eyes, Fake Wars and Big Lies. We start the second part on French politics with, in this episode, the appearance of Jacques Chirac and Nicolas Sarkozy. Gradually, small gifts will transform Paris’ foreign policy from serving France to personal arrangements between friends.

Bolivia, laboratory of a new destabilization strategy

by Thierry Meyssan

Bolivia, laboratory of a new destabilization strategy

Damascus (Syria) | 26 November 2019
The international press reports the events in Bolivia with caution. It describes the overthrow of President Evo Morales, evokes yet another coup d’état, but fails to identify what is really happening. It does not see the emergence of a new political force, hitherto unknown in Latin America. For Thierry Meyssan, if the continent’s religious authorities do not immediately assume their responsibilities, nothing can prevent the spread of chaos.

Six Conflicting Global Projects

by Thierry Meyssan

Six Conflicting Global Projects

Damascus (Syria) | 19 November 2019
The six major world powers approach the reorganization of international relations according to their experiences and dreams. Prudently, they intend to defend their interests first before promoting their vision of the world. Thierry Meyssan describes their respective positions before the fight begins.

The Insoluble Contradictions of Daesh and the PKK/YPG

by Thierry Meyssan

The Insoluble Contradictions of Daesh and the PKK/YPG

Damascus (Syria) | 12 November 2019
We only know what is happening in the Levant through the war propaganda of the country in which we live. We ignore other points of view and, more importantly, how our armies have behaved. To disentangle the true from the false, historians will have to examine the available documents. However, what the Western military literature tells us contradicts the statements of politicians and the narrative in the newspapers. It is only by becoming aware of the existence of the Pentagon’s strategy since 2001 that we will be able to understand what really happened and why such contradictions are occurring today.

Propaganda and Post-Truth

by Thierry Meyssan

Propaganda and Post-Truth

Damascus (Syria) | 5 November 2019
For 18 years, we have been debating the strange evolution of the media, which seems to place less and less value on facts. We attribute this phenomenon to their democratization through social networks. It would be because from now on any person can become a journalist, that the quality of information would have collapsed. The right to speak should therefore be reserved for the elites.
What if it’s exactly the opposite? If the censorship we are considering was not the answer to the phenomenon, but its continuity?

The Future of the Levant

by Thierry Meyssan

The Future of the Levant

Damascus (Syria) | 30 October 2019
We can’t resist publishing Thierry Meyssan’s editorial in al-Watan, Syria’s leading daily newspaper. He describes the United States/Russia agreement for the Levant.

Peace or the Fight Against CO2: You Have to Choose your Priority

by Thierry Meyssan

Peace or the Fight Against CO2: You Have to Choose your Priority

Damascus (Syria) | 30 October 2019
Two policies are being pursued at the global level. The first aims to defend the future of humanity by putting an end to the main current cause of wars: access to fossil energy sources. The second aims to defend the planet by limiting CO2 production, mainly due to the use of fossil fuels. These two policies contradict each other. It is important to choose your priority.

The New World is Emerging Before Us

by Thierry Meyssan

The New World is Emerging Before Us

Damascus (Syria) | 22 October 2019
Thierry Meyssan underlines the extreme gravity, not of the US withdrawal from Syria, but of the collapse of the world’s current landmarks. According to him, we are entering a short transition period, during which the current masters of the game, the "financial capitalists" - and those he refers to here have nothing to do with either original capitalism or the original bank - will be rejected in favour of the rules of law laid down by Russia in 1899.

All that is hidden from you about the Turkish operation "Source of Peace" (3/3)

The Turkish invasion of Rojava

by Thierry Meyssan

The Turkish invasion of Rojava

Damascus (Syria) | 21 October 2019
While the international community publicly fears the brutality of the Turkish intervention in northern Syria, it unofficially welcomes this intervention as the one and only solution to bring peace to the region. The war against Syria ends with one more crime. The fate of Idleb’s foreign mercenaries, the rabid jihadists during eight years of a particularly savage and cruel war, has yet to be determined.

Kurdistan, imagined by French colonialism

by Thierry Meyssan

Kurdistan, imagined by French colonialism

Damascus (Syria) | 19 October 2019
Contrary to popular belief, Rojava is not a state for the Kurdish people, but a French fantasy of the interwar period. The aim was to create a rump state with Kurds equivalent to Greater Israel, which was being considered with Jews. This colonial objective was reactivated by Presidents Sarkozy, Hollande and Macron including the ethnic cleansing of the region intended to host it.
