In last week’s “France Displays Unhinged Hypocrisy as Bombs Fall on Mali” report, it was stated specifically that:
“As far back as August of 2011, Bruce Riedel out of the corporate-financier funded think-tank, the Brookings Institution, wrote “Algeria will be next to fall,” where he gleefully predicted success in Libya would embolden radical elements in Algeria, in particular AQIM. Between extremist violence and the prospect of French airstrikes, Riedel hoped to see the fall of the Algerian government. Ironically Riedel noted:Algeria has expressed particular concern that the unrest in Libya could lead to the development of a major safe haven and sanctuary for al-Qaeda and other extremist jihadis.And thanks to NATO, that is exactly what Libya has become - a Western sponsored sanctuary for Al-Qaeda. AQIM’s headway in northern Mali and now French involvement will see the conflict inevitably spill over into Algeria. It should be noted that Riedel is a co-author of “Which Path to Persia?” which openly conspires to arm yet another US State Department-listed terrorist organization (list as #28), the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) to wreak havoc across Iran and help collapse the government there – illustrating a pattern of using clearly terroristic organizations, even those listed as so by the US State Department, to carry out US foreign policy.”
Now, it is reported that “Al Qaeda-linked” terrorists have seized American hostages in Algeria in what is being described by the Western press as “spill over” from France’s Mali operations.
The Washington Post, in their article, “Al-Qaida-linked militants seize BP complex in Algeria, take hostages in revenge for Mali,” claims:
“As Algerian army helicopters clattered overhead deep in the Sahara desert, Islamist militants hunkered down for the night in a natural gas complex they had assaulted Wednesday morning, killing two people and taking dozens of foreigners hostage in what could be the first spillover from France’s intervention in Mali.”
The Wall Street Journal, in its article, “Militants Grab U.S. Hostages in Algeria,” reports that:
“Militants with possible links to al Qaeda seized about 40 foreign hostages, including several Americans, at a natural-gas field in Algeria, posing a new level of threat to nations trying to blunt the growing influence of Islamist extremists in Africa.
As security officials in the U.S. and Europe assessed options to reach the captives from distant bases, Algerian security forces failed in an attempt late Wednesday to storm the facility.”
The WSJ also added:
“Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said the U.S. would take “necessary and proper steps” in the hostage situation, and didn’t rule out military action. He said the Algeria attack could represent a spillover from Mali.”
And it is military action, both covert and incrementally more overt, that will see the West’s extremist proxies and the West’s faux efforts to stem them, increasingly creep over the Mali-Algerian border, as the old imperial maps of Europe are redrawn right before our eyes.
Image: The French Empire at its height right before the World Wars. The regions that are now Libya, Algeria, Mali, and the Ivory Coast all face reconquest by the French and Anglo-Americans, with French troops literally occupying the region and playing a pivotal role in installing Western-friendly client regimes. Also notice Syria too, was a French holding – now under attack by US-British-French funded, armed, and backed terrorists – the same terrorists allegedly being fought in Mali and now Algeria.
Meanwhile, these very same terrorist forces continue to receive funding, arms, covert military support, and diplomatic recognition in Syria, by NATO, and specifically the US and France who are both claiming to fight the “Free Syrian Army’s” ideological and very literal allies in North Africa.
In reality, Al Qaeda is allowing the US and France to intervene and interfere in Algeria, after attempts in 2011 to trigger political subversion was soundly defeated by the Algerian government. Al Qaeda is essentially both a casus belli and mercenary force, deployed by the West against targeted nations. It is clear that French operations seek to trigger armed conflict in Algeria as well as a possible Western military intervention there as well, with the Mali conflict serving only as a pretense.

I really hoped that the Africans would, by now, have the sense to drive the vultures from their lands, then I saw some grinning, stupid,Mali donkeys interviewed, who said they welcomed French/NATO intervention, and I knew that faint hope was shattered..

Just left the following comment on Press TV :
Today I intend to send a round e-mail to various regional TV stations here in Norway, which have citizens involved in the hostage drama in Algeria. I want those with clout, to advise this government, to look at the bigger picture, as to why these freedom fighters need to go to such extremes, and to advise the Norwegian government, to distance itself from the US/NATO war of terror, which benefits a supremasist cabal, which feeds off of these aquisitous wars, which impoverish the citizens of countries which have resources these supremasists covet, or which do not conform to the usury rules of the cabal.. I urge other concerned peoples to do the same, in contacting governments which may be misguided.. This warmongering, and destruction, must be stopped, now, or, eventually, it will consume other parts of the world, if not all of it..

The West’s rapacious reign of terror continues without any end in sight. They have become like their masters, the Jews, pure predators, while the citizens of the West care only about royal gossip, celebrities, and the latest Apple gadget. A criminal class ruling over a pathetic populace. Really, it’s a perfect fit.

(…) FRENCH TROOPS IN MALI – After six days of aerial attacks, on January 16, 2013, French troops began to engage the Islamist rebels whose advances to the south are threatening to overthrow the unelected military regime – and the Rothschild-owned gold mines (….)
(…) “We – not just the French, but all nations – have to combat terrorism.”
- French Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius on Mali (…)
(…) The real purpose of the French intervention, however, is to protect the Rothschild-owned gold mining operations in the south from being taken over. Mali is the third largest gold producer in Africa after South Africa and Ghana and the biggest mines in Mali are owned by Rothschild-controlled firms (…)
(…) MALI IS ‘GOLD COUNTRY’ – Foreign investors profit from the gold of Mali while its people wallow in poverty. Nine out of ten people in Mali live in dire poverty and 72 percent of the population survives on less than a dollar a day.Ninety percent of the Malian population is Muslim (…)

NEW SPEAK – HOLOSPEAK!
“the Islamist rebels”
Everytime a Muslim fights back the European barbarians, savages, perverts and mass murderers who invade their country, bomb them, kill their people, destroy their culture, plunder their wealth and steal their resources, they are labelled “ISLAMISTS”!
We are living in an upside world!

Just sent round the following, in e-mails, entitled “why are so many so blind?” :
“Today I intend to send a round e-mail to various regional TV stations and local media, here in Norway, and elsewhere, which have citizens involved in the hostage drama in Algeria. I want those with clout, to advise these governments, to look at the bigger picture, as to why these freedom fighters need to go to such extremes, and to advise these governments, to distance themselves from the US/NATO war of terror, which benefits a supremasist cabal, which feeds off of these aquisitous wars, which impoverishes the citizens of countries, countries which have resources these supremasists covet, or which do not conform to the usury rules of the cabal.. I urge other concerned peoples to do the same, in contacting governments which may be misguided.. This warmongering, and destruction, must be stopped, now, or, eventually, it will consume other parts of the world, if not all of it..”
This was a comment I posted after a news report, on Press TV, a news channel, I might add, which is becoming extremely popular, due to honest reporting, and which, therefore, is being sabotaged, in an attempt to hush it up, by the aforementioned supremacist cabal, their proxies, and all their usefull tools. The report was about the hostage crisis in Algeria..
How many people have died, or been displaced, because of this never ending, supremacist war, of terror, power, and greed? MILLIONS.. Millions have died.. Millions have been driven from their homes, and their lands, forced to flee, to live like beggars, in camps, being fed, by a corrupt organization, which is merely one of the many tentacles of the global war machine, which is waging wars, against these countries, which do not comply with their rules, of world domination, or which have resources the supremacist cabal craves, in order to hold on to power..
This situation has been ongoing for many years, people being slaughtered in many parts of the world, in order to empower the cabal. Lands, such as Kashmir, and Palestine, being occupied, by those placed there, by the cabal, in order to repress any resistance, in the eastern, middle eastern, countries. Those countries which do not comply, are destroyed, countries such as Iraq, Libya, and Syria, who dared to defy the cabalistic monetary system, the system which is responsible for the fiscal disaster, which is devastating several countries, and impoverishing their citizens..
Why are countries such as the US, UK, Germany, France, Canada, and Australia, continueing these acts of aggression, toward countries which do not pose a threat to them? whilst their citizens are becoming impoverished, many homeless, many without work. Why do other countries support this worldwide rape, and pillage, of countries whose resources are used to feed the supremacist machine? Organizations too, fuel the unrest, which is threatening to destroy this planet, which is pretty much on the brink of nuclear disaster, organizations such as NATO, the EU, and the UN..
People, ordinary people, in many parts of the world, are waking up to reality. Many ordinary people are risking their lives, in an attempt to draw attention to their plight. Many have died, mostly children, but world leaders DO NOT CARE ABOUT PEOPLE. Those driving the supremacist cabal, regard people on a par with donkeys, beasts of burden, there but to empower them. What the compliant world leaders fail to see, and many ordinary citizens too, is, that they too are donkeys, beasts of burden, working to ensure the power of the cabal..
I doubt that things will change anytime soon, but I for one am tired, of the global, never ending wars, the theft, and corruption, which is taking place on a global scale. Had those countries, which are spreading hate, and war, as a political policy, instead, acted differently, with honest diplomacy, not the kind concealed in an iron fist, just imagine how the world could have been, peace instead of war, and plenty for all.. It is all so sad, and such a waste..
