The lies of Algerian Power

by Thierry Meyssan

The lies of Algerian Power

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 deception of international penal Justice

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

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

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 ».

From Iraqi weapons of mass destruction to Syrian chemical weapons

by Thierry Meyssan

From Iraqi weapons of mass destruction to Syrian chemical weapons

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

Jihadism and high treason

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

The CIA is using Turkey to pressure China

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

The rapprochement between Paris and Berlin

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.

Can Venezuela and its neighbours survive the coming war?

by Thierry Meyssan

Can Venezuela and its neighbours survive the coming war?

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

Iran is cornered

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.

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

by Thierry Meyssan

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

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.

Has Donald Trump been forced to give up ?

by Thierry Meyssan

Has Donald Trump been forced to give up ?

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.

The use of terrorism according to John Bolton

The use of terrorism according to John Bolton

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.

Re-Colonisation

by Thierry Meyssan

Re-Colonisation

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 terrible forthcoming destruction of the « Caribbean Basin »

by Thierry Meyssan

The terrible forthcoming destruction of the « Caribbean Basin »

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.

by Thierry Meyssan

Metamorphosis

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

The United States refuse to fight for the transnational financiers

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 United States are preparing a war between Latin-American states

by Thierry Meyssan

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

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 Aim of the Global Pact on Migration

by Thierry Meyssan

The Aim of the Global Pact on Migration

Damascus (Syria) | 17 December 2018
While seven states have already refused to sign the Global Pact on Migration, (which it is claimed was drafted in their interests), Thierry Meyssan revisits the history of this document and the philosophy which inspired its authors. The two strands of thought that thread this document together are the philosophies of Karl Popper and states releasing all control of their borders.

Who does Emmanuel Macron owe?

by Thierry Meyssan

Who does Emmanuel Macron owe?

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.

How the West eats its children

by Thierry Meyssan

How the West eats its children

Damascus (Syria) | 4 December 2018
For Thierry Meyssan, by taking to the streets, the French have become the first Western population to take personal risks to oppose financial globalisation. Although they do not realise it, and still imagine that their problems are exclusively national, their enemy is the same force that crushed the region of the African Great Lakes and a part of the Greater Middle East. In order to understand the project which inextricably unites these apparently disparate events, we have to take a step back.

When you want to sanction States, you call them « terrorists »

by Thierry Meyssan

When you want to sanction States, you call them « terrorists »

Damascus (Syria) | 27 November 2018
The new unilateral sanctions by the United States against Iran, Russia and Syria add to the previous actions concerning the same three targets. They now form the most unforgiving embargo in History. The way in which they have been organised is illegal according to the definition of the Charter of the United Nations – these are weapons of war, designed for killing.

Secession from the European Union

by Thierry Meyssan

Secession from the European Union

Damascus (Syria) | 20 November 2018
For Thierry Meyssan, the way in which Germany and France are refusing the right of the United Kingdom to leave the European Union demonstrates the fact that the EU is not simply a straight-jacket - it also goes to show that the Europeans still care as little about their neighbours as they did during the two World Wars. Manifestly, they have forgotten that governing a country means more than simply defending its interests in the short term, but also thinking in the long term and avoiding conflicts with its neighbours.

What the mid-term elections tell us about US interior conflict

by Thierry Meyssan

What the mid-term elections tell us about US interior conflict

Damascus (Syria) | 13 November 2018
The US mid-term elections have been interpreted by the major medias in terms of the partisan divide between Republicans and Democrats. However, continuing his in-depth analysis of the social fabric, Thierry Meyssan sees a clear retreat of the Puritans faced with the Lutherans and the Catholics. Donald Trump’s political realignment, just as that of Richard Nixon before him, is close to succeeding.

Syria: peace implies international condemnation of the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood

by Thierry Meyssan

Syria: peace implies international condemnation of the ideology of the Muslim Brotherhood

Damascus (Syria) | 6 November 2018
Although several peace projects are currently circulating in the chanceries, Thierry Meyssan points out their inadequacy for this sort of war. According to him, those who begin with an amputated analysis of the conflict, yet still believe they are doing the right thing, will not only fail to resolve the problem, but will pave the way for a new war. It is imperative to treat the ideological question as a priority.

The Silk Road and Israël

by Thierry Meyssan

The Silk Road and Israël

Damascus (Syria) | 30 October 2018
Beijing continues unceasingly to develop its « Silk Road » project. China’s vice-President, Wang Qishan, has undertaken a tour of the Near East which took him to Israël for four days. According to the agreements which have already been signed, within two years China will control the major part of Israël’s agro-food industry, its high technology and its international exchanges. A free trade agreement should follow, and the geopolitics of the whole region will be turned upside down.

What is not being said about the quadrilateral summit on Syria

by Thierry Meyssan

What is not being said about the quadrilateral summit on Syria

Damascus (Syria) | 30 October 2018
The quadrilateral summit in Istanbul on Syria has endorsed the political advances of Russia, but has decided nothing. Moscow gave its Turkish, French and German partners a lesson on the situation. The allies of Washington are having a hard time digesting their defeat and drawing its conclusions.

The Quincy Pact only protects the King of Arabia, not his heir

by Thierry Meyssan

The Quincy Pact only protects the King of Arabia, not his heir

Beirut (Lebanon) | 23 October 2018
The Panamanians who remember Washington’s arrest of its employee, General Noriega, will not be surprised by the fate reserved for the Crown Prince of Saudi Arabia. The Jamal Khashoggi affair is one of MBS’s most insignificant crimes, but will probably be his last. The Saoud family is not protected by the Quincy Pact, which only applies to the King. The United States should recuperate several billion dollars.

Counter-terrorism according to Trump

by Thierry Meyssan

Counter-terrorism according to Trump

Damascus (Syria) | 16 October 2018
While the new US anti-terrorist strategy doesn’t change much in terms of the fight itself, it operates a profound modification of the working rules of the Pentagon and the Secretariat of Homeland Security. It is not so much a rationalisation of what has been developed since 2001, but more a redefinition of the missions of the federal State.

International relations: the calm before the storm?

by Thierry Meyssan

International relations: the calm before the storm?

Damascus (Syria) | 9 October 2018
All international problems are currently suspended, awaiting the results of the US mid-term elections. The partisans of the old international order are gambling on a change of majority in Congress and a rapid destitution of President Trump. If the man in the White House holds fast, the protagonists of the war against Syria will have to admit defeat and move on to other battle fields. On the other hand, if Donald Trump should lose the elections, the war on Syria will immediately be revived by the United Kingdom.

UNO : birth of the post-Western world

by Thierry Meyssan

UNO : birth of the post-Western world

Damascus (Syria) | 2 October 2018
The administration of the UNO had been hoping for a clash between the pro- and anti-Trump factions during the General Assembly. What actually happened was very different. While several States, including France, denounced the methods of the resident of the White House, Russia undertook an analysis of the Western alliance. According to Moscow, most of our current problems are due to the desire of the old colonial powers to conserve their domination of the rest of the world - at whatever the cost. In order to overtake them, a formidable coalition has been born.

Will London, Paris and Tel-Aviv be sanctioned by Moscow and Washington?

by Thierry Meyssan

Will London, Paris and Tel-Aviv be sanctioned by Moscow and Washington?

Damascus (Syria) | 25 September 2018
The confrontation which recently occurred in Lattakia may result in a complete global redistribution of the cards. There are two reasons for this, the second of which is being hidden from the Western world. First of all, it cost the lives of 15 Russian soldiers; secondly, it not only implicates Israël, but also the United Kingdom and France. This is potentially the most dangerous crisis in more than 60 years. We now have to find out whether President Trump, currently in the middle of his election campaign, is capable of supporting his Russian counterpart, in order that the United States and Russia may sanction the colonial powers as they did in 1956, during the Suez crisis.
