L'utilisation d'armes chimiques en Syrie pourrait être un false flag israélien, selon l'ancien chef de cabinet de Colin Powell sous l'administration Bush, le colonel à la retraite Lawrence Wilkerson
L'excuse des armes chimiques est encore une fois invoquée par Israël pour bombarder à leur guise n'importe quelle cible, cette fois-ci en Syrie.

In what was a quite astounding statement, Col. Lawrence Wilkerson,
former chief of Staff for Secretary of State Colin Powell under George
W. Bush, said that the chemical weapons allegedly used in Syria could in fact be "an Israeli false flag operation."
During his interview with Cenk Uygur on Current TV (now owned by Al Jazeera),
Wilkerson said his unnamed sources in the intelligence community told
him that the evidence supporting the alleged use of chemical weapons by
the Syrian government was "really flaky."
"This could have been an Israeli false flag operation," Wilkerson said.
When Uygur asked why Israel would do such a thing and what the motivation would be, Wilkerson said, "I think we've got basically a geo-strategically, geo-political - if you will - inept regime in Tel Aviv right now."
"I think we saw really startling evidence of that in the fact that President Obama had to tell Bibi Netanyahu, 'Pick up the phone, you idiot and call Ankara [Turkey] and get yourself out of this strategic isolation you're in right now,'" Wilkerson said, referring to the situation in March of this year.
"Otherwise Bibi probably never would have done it," Wilkerson added.
Wilkerson went on to explain what he sees as a very dangerous situation for Israel brewing in the region in the clip (see below).
Retired Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, former Chief of Staff to Colin Powell during the Bush administration, talks to Cenk about how President Obama should handle early evidence that Syria may have used chemicals weapons.
"Look at Israel's situation right now, it's as dangerous as it's been since 1948," Wilkerson said. "You've got Lebanon growing increasingly unstable with [Secretary-General of Hezbollah Hassan] Nasrallah and Hezbollah having more and more political power."
"You've got Syria involved in a brutal civil war. You've got Iraq in Iran's back pocket with [Iraq Prime Minister] Nouri al-Maliki, the Sunnis realizing that and restating the civil war. You've got Saudi Arabia funding the Sunnis in Iraq," Wilkerson said.
"You've got Jordan, whose king has publicly said he wished he weren't the king. You've got Egypt in an untenable position, no longer the security that Israel needed on that flank," Wilkerson continued. "So Israel is in a very, very dangerous situation right now."
"The president has got to be very circumspect about what he does in exacerbating that situation. Netanyahu is clueless as to this,"
Wilkerson said. "I hope President Obama gave him a lecture in geostrategic realities."
Hearing statements like these come from such a major official in the Bush administration is quite noteworthy, especially since in 2006 he admitted
that he "participated in a hoax on the American people, the international community and the United Nations Security Council,"
referring to Powell's speech before the UN in 2003 laying out a case for the Iraq war.
Perhaps Wilkerson is now much less willing to jump on the bandwagon and beat the drums of war when the information justifying it is questionable at best.

• First real evidence emerges proving U.S. ally behind Syria attack
by Victor Thorn for American Free Press
October 06, 2013 AFP
AMERICAN
FREE PRESS is opposed to military interventions and wars that are not
in this country’s interest and only benefit the
military-industrial-banking complex and Greater Israel.
And
with that in mind, this week, AFP examines how doctored intelligence
reports, an incoherent foreign policy and powerful special interests
have the potential to lead the United States into World War III.
Once
restricted merely to conspiracy circles, the term “false flag attack”
became part of the popular lexicon during the recent Syrian chemical
weapons debacle. Former Representative Ron Paul (R-Tex) referred to
allegations that the Syrian government had used sarin gas as a false
flag before adding, “The group most likely to benefit from it is al
Qaeda.” But even though Muslim revolutionaries were most likely involved
in the use of chemical weapons, the source of these heinous attacks can
be traced to familiar players.
On
September 17, Jason Ditz, news editor of the website “Antiwar.com,”
wrote, “Israeli ambassador Michael Oren revealed that the Israeli
government has privately been seeking change in neighboring Syria for
the past two years since the ongoing civil war began.”
Four
months earlier, Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, Secretary of State Colin
Powell’s right-hand man during his term in the Bush administration,
spoke of an earlier chemical attack in Syria.
“This
could have been an Israeli false flag operation,” he said. “You’ve got
basically a geo-strategically, geo-political — if you will — inept
regime in Tel Aviv right now.” Wilkerson is known for calling
intelligence on Iraqi weapons of mass destruction in October 2005 a
“hoax.”
In regard to Syria,
respected ex-Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) analyst Ray McGovern
averred that so-called evidence presented by the Obama administration
“would not stand up in a court of law.” According to McGovern, despite
Israel’s attempts at perpetual instability in the Middle East, saner
heads prevailed via our military’s top brass.
Scott
Baker, senior editor of the liberal website “Op-Ed News,” addressed
this issue on September 11. “McGovern says the military got to the
president, overriding even the objections of the military’s Joint Chiefs
of Staff,” wrote Baker on his website.
On
September 2, popular news website “The World Tribune” editorialized
about the military’s wise request to slow down the path to war in the
form of General Martin Dempsey, who showed his reluctance to be a
participant in this potential fiasco.
“Dempsey
has been unusually blunt in his remarks with both Obama and Vice
President Joe Biden,” opined the “Tribune.” “His assessment is that any
U.S. war against Assad will involve his foreign allies, and that means
Tehran and to a smaller extent, Moscow.”
Already,
comparisons between Obama and President George W. Bush and Vice
President Dick Cheney have been made, particularly in terms of lies and
exaggerations regarding weapons of mass destruction.
For
example, Secretary of State John Kerry stated that 1,429 people,
including 426 children, died in the August 21 chemical attack just
outside Damascus. Yet humanitarian group Doctors Without Borders, which
has doctors on the ground in Syria, estimated the total at only 355. Red
Cross Operations Director George Kettaneh directly contradicted Obama
administration claims that a Syrian man had tested positive for traces
of toxic gases in his bloodstream.
Yossef
Bodansky, the senior editor for Defense & Foreign Affairs magazine,
took it a step further in a September 1 article published on the news
agency’s website, entitled “Did the White House Help Plan the Syrian
Chemical Attack?”
As former
director of the Congressional Task Force on Terrorism and Unconventional
Warfare, Bodansky’s sources acknowledged that on August 13, at a
Turkish military prison in Antakya, representatives from Qatar, Turkey
and the U.S.—including U.S. Ambassador Robert Ford—met with Syrian
opposition leaders to unleash a “war changing development.”
Saleh
Muslim, overseer of the Kurdish Democratic Union Party, agreed with
Bodansky’s assessment, asserting that this secret meeting was “aimed at
framing Assad and provoking an international reaction.”
Lawrence Wilkerson, the former chief of staff of Colin Powell in the Bush Regime, has stated in an interview with The Real News Network
that U.S. senators John McCain and Lindsey Graham, known for their
servile groveling to Israeli interests, are “bordering on being
traitors.”
In the second part of the interview Wilkerson confirmed what many
political commentators have been saying for years, that Israel is
engaged in a divide and conquer strategy in the Middle East to pave the
path for their grand vision of a “Greater Israel”. Israel intends to
weaken and undermine all of its regional competitors by instigating and
fomenting internal conflict in those countries — just as they did in
Lebanon in the 1980s.
Wilkerson recently stated that the chemical attack in Syria that took
place in late August of this year was likely an Israeli false-flag
operation.
It is likely that Al Qaeda rebels – and not the Syrian government –
carried out the chemical weapons attack which the hawks in Washington
are trying to use as a reason to invade.
The Syria Tribune released a video in December allegedly showing Syrian rebels
killing rabbits with chemical weapons, and threatening to use them
against supporters of the Syrian government. (It is impossible at this
point to say whether this is genuine or propaganda).
Col. Lawrence Wilkerson – the former chief of staff to Secretary of
State Colin Powell under President George W. Bush – said yesterday that
the Syrian chemical weapons could be a “Israeli false flag operation”.
Wilkerson said that he had been told by his sources in the
intelligence community that evidence that Syria had used chemical
weapons was “really flaky” and that President Barack Obama should think twice before intervening.
“This could have been an Israeli false flag operation,” he said.
“You’ve got basically a geo-strategically, geo-political — if you will —
inept regime in Tel Aviv right now.”
Indeed, Neoconservatives planned regime change in Syria – and throughout the Middle East and North Africa – 20 years ago.
Col. Lawrence Wilkerson, the former chief of staff to Secretary of
State Colin Powell under President George W. Bush, on Thursday warned
that the chemical weapons that were reportedly used in Syria could be a
“Israeli false flag operation” because Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu
was running an “inept regime.”
During an interview with Current TV’s Cenk Uygur, Wilkerson explained
that he had been told by his sources in the intelligence community that
evidence that Syria had used chemical weapons was “really flaky” and
that President Barack Obama should think twice before intervening.
“This could have been an Israeli false flag operation,” he said.
“You’ve got basically a geo-strategically, geo-political — if you will —
inept regime in Tel Aviv right now.”
Wilkerson pointed to the fact that Obama had to tell Netanyahu
to “pick up the phone, you idiot,” and call Turkish Prime Minister
Recep Tayyip Erdogan to apologize for a Israeli raid that killed killed
eight Turkish civilians aboard a Gaza-bound flotilla in 2010.
“Look at Israel’s situation right now, it’s as dangerous as it’s been
since 1948,” Wilkerson remarked. “You’ve got Lebanon growing
increasingly unstable with [Hezbollah chief Sayyed Hasan] Nasrallah and
Hezbollah having more and more political power. You’ve got Syria
involved in a brutal civil war. You’ve got Iraq in Iran’s back pocket
with [Iraq Prime Minister] Nuri al-Maliki, the Sunnis realizing that and
restating the civil war. You’ve got Saudi Arabia funding the Sunnis in
Iraq. You’ve got Jordan, whose king has publicly said he wished he
weren’t the king. You’ve got Egypt in an untenable position, no longer
the security that Israel needed on that flank.”
“So Israel is in a very, very dangerous situation right now. The
president has got to be very circumspect about what he does in
exacerbating that situation. Netanyahu is clueless as to this. I hope
that President Obama gave him a lecture into geo-strategic realities.”
Watch the video below from Current TV’s The Young Turks, broadcast May 3, 2013.
Front: Benjamin Netanyahu, son of terrorist secretaire to Jabotinski, Back: Menachem Begin, terrorist leader of the Irgun and follower of Jabosintki. The Irgun was an offshoot of the Haganah, which evolved into the Shin Bet. See video: Israel was born out of Jewish terrorism
Lawrence Wilkerson, former chief of staff to Secretary of State Colin Powell, says Israel may have conducted ‘false flag’ operation. Describes its government as inept and Netanyahu as ‘clueless.’
By Chemi Shalev
Retired U.S. Army Colonel Lawrence Wilkerson, who once served as Secretary of State Colin Powell’s Chief of Staff, believes that the chemical weapons used in Syria may have been an Israeli “false flag” operation aimed at implicating Bashar Assad’s regime.
Wilkerson made his astounding assertion in an interview on Current TV, the network once owned by former Vice President Al Gore and recently purchased by Al-Jazeera.
Wilkerson said that the evidence that it was Assad’s regime that had used the chemical weapons was “flaky” and that it could very well have been the rebels or Israel who were the perpetrators. Asked why Israel would do such a thing, Wilkerson said: “I think we’ve got a basically geostrategically, geopolitical inept regime in Tel Aviv right now.”
“I think we saw really startling evidence of that,” Wilkerson continued, “in the fact that President Obama had to tell Bibi Netanyahu ‘Pick up the phone, you idiot, call Ankara and get yourself out of this strategic isolation you’re in right now.”
A “false flag” operation is a covert attack on foreign or domestic soil carried out by governments or organizations under a false identity, aimed at placing blame on the enemy. It originates with a ruse once used in naval warfare in which ships would hoist the enemy’s flags in order to infiltrate his ranks.
Wilkerson, 63, a former Army helicopter pilot who flew combat missions in Vietnam, served as Colin Powell’s chief of staff in 2002-2005.
He was responsible for reviewing the intelligence information used by Powell in his by now infamous February 2003 United Nations Security Councilappearance on Saddam Hussein’s weapons of mass destruction.
After his retirement, Wilkerson described this presentation as “a hoax” and became an outspoken critic of the Bush Administration’s handling of the Iraq war. He now serves as a professor at Virginia’s William and Mary College and is a guest commentator on several U.S. television networks.
Speaking on the Current’s Young Turks program, Wilkerson said that because of the instability in the Middle East, Israel’s current geo-strategic situation is “as dangerous as it’s been since 1948.”
He added that President Obama “has got to be very circumspect about what he does in exacerbating that situation.”
“Netanyahu is clueless as to this,” Wilkerson said. “I hope President Obama gave him a lecture in geostrategic realities.”

Extraits d’un article de la revue Kivounim (Orientation), publié par l’« Organisation Sioniste mondiale »
à Jérusalem (n° 14, février 1982). Ils présentent un plan de
démembrement des États arabes qui constitue la référence du projet de
« remodelage du Proche-Orient » de l’administration Bush.
Archives de février 1982
« La
reconquête du Sinaï, avec ses ressources actuelles, est un objectif
prioritaire que les accords de Camp David et les accords de paix
empêchaient jusqu’ici d’atteindre (…) Privés de pétrole et des revenus
qui en découlent, condamnés à d’énormes dépenses en ce domaine, il nous
faut impérativement agir pour retrouver la situation qui prévalait dans
le Sinaï avant la visite de Sadate et le malheureux accord signé avec
lui en 1979.
La
situation économique de l’Égypte, la nature de son régime, et sa
politique panarabe, vont déboucher sur une conjoncture telle qu’Israël
devra intervenir…
L’Égypte,
du fait de ses conflits internes, ne représente plus pour nous un
problème stratégique, et il serait possible, en moins de 24 heures, de
la faire revenir à l’état où elle se trouvait après la guerre de juin
1967. Le mythe de l’Égypte « leader du monde arabe » est bien mort (…)
et, face à Israël et au reste du monde arabe, elle a perdu 50% de sa
puissance. À court terme, elle pourra tirer avantage de la restitution
du Sinaï, mais cela ne changera pas fondamentalement le rapport de
force. En tant que corps centralisé, l’Égypte est déjà un cadavre,
surtout si l’on tient compte de l’affrontement de plus en plus dur entre
musulmans et chrétiens. Sa division en provinces géographiques
distinctes doit être notre objectif politique pour les années 1990, sur
le front occidental.
Une
fois l’Égypte ainsi disloquée et privée de pouvoir central, des pays
comme la Libye, le Soudan, et d’autres plus éloignés, connaîtront la
même dissolution. La formation d’un État copte en Haute-Égypte, et celle
de petites entités régionales de faible importance, est la clef d’un
développement historique actuellement retardé par l’accord de paix, mais
inéluctable à long terme.
En
dépit des apparences, le front Ouest présente moins de problèmes que
celui de l’Est. La partition du Liban en cinq provinces (…) préfigure ce
qui se passera dans l’ensemble du monde arabe. L’éclatement
de la Syrie et de l’Irak en régions déterminées sur la base de critères
ethniques ou religieux, doit être, à long terme, un but prioritaire
pour Israël, la première étape étant la destruction de la puissance
militaire de ces États.
Les
structures ethniques de la Syrie l’exposent à un démantèlement qui
pourrait aboutir à la création d’un État chiite le long de la côte, d’un
État sunnite dans la région d’Alep, d’un autre à Damas, et d’une entité
druze qui pourrait souhaiter constituer son propre État —peut-être sur
notre Golan— en tout cas avec l’Houran et le Nord de la Jordanie. (…) Un
tel État serait, à long terme, une garantie de paix et de sécurité pour
la région. C’est un objectif qui est déjà à notre portée.
Riche
en pétrole, et en proie à des luttes intestines, l’Irak est dans la
ligne de mire israélienne. Sa dissolution serait, pour nous, plus
importante que celle de la Syrie, car c’est lui qui représente, à court
terme, la plus sérieuse menace pour Israël. Une guerre syro-irakienne
favoriserait son effondrement de l’intérieur, avant qu’il ne soit en
mesure de se lancer dans un conflit d’envergure contre nous. Toute forme
de confrontations inter-arabe nous sera utile et hâtera l’heure de cet
éclatement. (…) Il est possible que la guerre actuelle contre l’Iran
précipite ce phénomène de polarisation.
La
Péninsule arabique toute entière est vouée à une dissolution du même
genre, sous des pressions internes. C’est le cas en particulier de
l’Arabie saoudite : l’aggravation des conflits intérieurs et la chute du
régime sont dans la logique de ses structures politiques actuelles.
La
Jordanie est un objectif stratégique dans l’immédiat. À long terme,
elle ne constituera plus une menace pour nous après sa dissolution, la
fin du règne de Hussein, et le transfert du pouvoir aux mains de la
majorité palestinienne.
C’est
à quoi doit tendre la politique israélienne. Ce changement signifiera
la solution du problème de la rive occidentale, à forte densité de
population arabe.
L’émigration
de ces Arabes à l’Est —dans des conditions pacifiques ou à la suite
d’une guerre— et le gel de leur croissance économique et démographique,
sont les garanties des transformations à venir. Nous devons tout faire
pour hâter ce processus.
Il
faut rejeter le plan d’autonomie, et tout autre qui impliquerait un
compromis ou une participation des territoires, et ferait obstacle à la
séparation des deux nations : conditions indispensables d’une véritable
coexistence pacifique.
Les
Arabes israéliens doivent comprendre qu’ils ne pourront avoir de patrie
qu’en Jordanie (…) et ne connaîtront de sécurité qu’en reconnaissant la
souveraineté juive entre la mer et le Jourdain. (…) Il n’est plus
possible, en cette entrée dans l’ère nucléaire, d’accepter que les trois
quarts de la population juive se trouve concentrée sur un littoral
surpeuplé et naturellement exposé ; la dispersion de cette population
est un impératif majeur de notre politique intérieure. La Judée, la
Samarie, et la Galilée, sont les seules garanties de notre survie
nationale. Si nous ne devenons pas majoritaires dans les régions
montagneuses, nous risquons de connaître le sort des Croisés, qui ont
perdu ce pays.
Rééquilibrer
la région sur le plan démographique, stratégique et économique, doit
être notre principale ambition ; ceci comporte le contrôle des
ressources en eau de la région qui va de Beer Sheba à la Haute-Galilée
et qui est pratiquement vide de juifs aujourd’hui. »
