More and more ships and other military assets continue gathering off the Syrian coast. Both US and Russia are moving stuff around. Currently the congressional leadership are all on board with this. Since the first lie didn’t work to excuse an attack, they are cooking up alternatives, but the likelihood this will fade away are just about zero.
Just as a reminder: This is a banking war. Syria is the current target for trying to break outside the dollar-denominated trade and defying the global banking cartel. We could talk about several related issues, but the real matter is banking and control over the debt. The plutocrats won’t be hurt by this stuff regardless of how it turns out militarily. I sense this could be a make-or-break for them in the sense of whether they’ll have to change the game in future rounds.
So it won’t matter what excuse has to appear; they shall have their war on any terms. We should expect any number of really nasty surprises here in the US and just about anywhere we have “interests.” I’m willing to bet one portion of this will be some kind of false flag incident. I shudder to think of the suffering it will mean for innocent folks.
One of the things I’m keeping an eye out for is relatively harmless in that sense: some kind of doomsday virus or malware. There have been some really nasty hints in this direction slipping out of government offices. I can’t say what sort of targeting we might see, but a part of me wonders if there won’t be a general threat hitting a really large number of computers. Naturally, whatever comes in terms of cyber-warfare will be blamed on the whipping boy of the day — in this case, Syria. It’s probably one of the few things where I have some hope of helping in some significant way once it happens.
Meanwhile, there remains yet much sorrow to come as the plutocrats will be forced to show their hand, in that they will have to come right out and defy the whole world in attacking Syria. I have no doubt they mean to have their war at any cost to the rest of us.
