The Syrian intelligence possesses an audio recording of conversation between Daesh terrorists and US military prior to the Washington-led coalition's airstrikes on the government troops near Deir ez-Zor on September 17, the speaker of the People's Council of Syria said Monday.

"The Syrian Army intercepted a conversation between the Americans and Daesh before the air raid on Deir ez-Zor", Hadiya Khalaf Abbas said as quoted by the Al Mayadeen broadcaster.

US warplanes hit Syrian government troops near the eastern city of Deir ez-Zor on September 17, leaving 62 military personnel killed and a hundred wounded. The Pentagon said initially that the airstrike was a mistake and targeted Daesh militants.

The head of the Syrian parliament added during her visit to Iran that after the coalition's airstrikes on the government troops US military directed terrorists' attack on the Syrian army.

Syrian state television reported that 43 people, including children, were killed by an air strike carried out by US-led coalition on the Jumaili neighborhood in the Syrian city of Raqqa, which is controlled by Daesh.

“As many frustrated Americans who have joined the Tea Party realize, we cannot stand against big government at home while supporting it abroad. We cannot talk about fiscal responsibility while spending trillions on occupying and bullying the rest of the world. We cannot talk about the budget deficit and spiraling domestic spending without looking at the costs of maintaining an American empire of more than 700 military bases in more than 120 foreign countries. We cannot pat ourselves on the back for cutting a few thousand dollars from a nature preserve or an inner-city swimming pool at home while turning a blind eye to a Pentagon budget that nearly equals those of the rest of the world combined.” – Ron Paul

AMERICA’S WAR FOR THE GREATER MIDDLE EAST
A Military History
By Andrew J. Bacevich
Illustrated. 453 pp. Random House. $30.

In the opening chapter of his latest book, the military historian Andrew J. Bacevich blames Jimmy Carter, a president commonly viewed as more meek than martial, for unwittingly spawning 35 years of American military intervention in the Middle East. Bacevich argues that three mistakes by Carter set precedents that led to decades of squandered American lives and treasure.

First, Carter called on Americans to stop worshiping “self-indulgence and consumption” and join a nationwide effort to conserve energy. Self-sacrifice, he argued in what is now widely derided as Carter’s “malaise speech,” would free Americans from their dependence on foreign oil and “help us to conquer the crisis of the spirit in our country.”

The President came across as more hectoring pastor than a visionary leader, Bacevich argues in “America’s War for the Greater Middle East.” His guileless approach squandered an opportunity to persuade Americans reeling from high foreign oil prices to trade “dependence for autonomy.”

Carter’s second mistake was authorizing American support to guerrillas fighting a Soviet-backed regime in Afghanistan, a move that eventually helped fuel the spread of radical Islam. Finally, in a misguided effort to counter views that he was “too soft,” Carter declared that the United States would respond with military force to any outside effort to seize Persian Gulf oil fields. “This statement, subsequently enshrined as the Carter Doctrine, inaugurated America’s war for the greater Middle East,” Bacevich writes.

This book, Bacevich’s eighth, extends his string of brutal, bracing and essential critiques of the pernicious role of reflexive militarism in American foreign policy. As in past books, Bacevich is thought-­provoking, profane and fearless. Assailing generals, journalists and foreign policy experts alike, he links together more than a dozen military interventions that span 35 years and declares them a single war. Bacevich analyzes each intervention, looking for common themes from Carter’s late 1970s missteps to Barack Obama’s widespread use of assassination by drone strike today.

Washington’s penchant for intervention, Bacevich contends, is driven by more than America’s thirst for oil or the military-­industrial complex’s need for new enemies. In addition to these two factors, he argues that “a deeply pernicious collective naïveté” among both Republicans and Democrats spawns interventions doomed by “confusion and incoherence.”

The ultimate responsibility for the United States’ actions lies with an “oblivious” American public engrossed in “shallow digital enthusiasms and the worship of celebrity,” Bacevich writes. Americans support freedom, democracy and prosperity in other nations, he tells us, as long as they get the lion’s share of it. 

 “Ensuring that Americans enjoy their rightful quota (which is to say, more than their fair share) of freedom, abundance and security comes first,” Bacevich says. “Everything else figures as an afterthought.”

Bacevich’s argument is heavy-handed at times, but when he writes about military strategy, he is genuinely incisive. Citing numerous examples, he convincingly argues that destructive myths about the efficacy of American military power blind policy makers, generals and voters. The use of overwhelming lethal force does not immediately cause dictators or terrorists to turn tail and run, even if that’s what politicians in Washington want to believe. Rather, it often leads to resentment, chaos and resistance.

A presumption that using military power signified to friends and foes that Washington was getting serious about a problem diminished the role of diplomats and diplomacy. “ ‘Getting serious’ also implied a preference for uniforms over suits as the principal agents of U.S. policy,” Bacevich writes. “Henceforth, rather than military power serving as the handmaiden of diplomacy, the reverse would be true.”

In another repeated mistake, triumphalist American commanders prematurely declare victory without realizing that their opponent has simply withdrawn to fight another day as a guerrilla force, as occurred in Afghanistan in 2001. They also personalize the enemy, wrongly assuming that the removal of figures like Saddam Hussein, Osama bin Laden and Muammar Qaddafi will instantly end conflict.

From Somalia in 1993 to Yemen today, American commanders and policy makers overestimated the advantage American military technology bestows on them. And most crucially of all, the United States has failed to decide whether it is, in fact, at war.

“In the war for the greater Middle East, the United States chose neither to contain nor to crush, instead charting a course midway in between,” Bacevich writes. “Instead of intimidating, U.S. military efforts have annoyed, incited and generally communicated a lack of both competence and determination.” The historical forces at work in the Middle East are different from the dynamics that led to American victories in World War II and the Cold War. American officials have failed to understand that. What’s more, a deluded Washington foreign policy establishment believes that an American way of life based on “consumption and choice” will be accepted over time in the “Islamic world.”

But it is here, in his description of the “Islamic world,” that Bacevich stumbles. What is missing in this book about “the greater Middle East” are the people of the greater Middle East. 

Bacevich’s most highly developed Muslim character in these pages is Saddam Hussein. The former Afghan president Hamid Karzai is a distant second. Beyond those two, the rest of the world’s estimated 1.6 billion Muslims come across as two-dimensional caricatures.

And so Bacevich lumps together vastly different nationalities — from Bosnians to Iraqis to Somalis — often referring to all of them primarily as “Muslims.” The dizzying complexities of each country’s history, politics, culture, resources and rivalries are missing. And when it comes to how “Muslims” view the world, Bacevich veers into the simplistic essentialism that he accuses Washington policy makers of following.

Bacevich suggests that in the “Islamic world” lifestyles based on “consumption and choice” might not work. Such broad-brush statements might well be considered simplistic and even bigoted if applied to other faiths. Can one contend that a “Christian world,” “Hindu world” or “Jewish world” exists? Are such generalizations analytically useful? Do the world’s hundreds of millions of Muslims practice their faith identically?

As a result of this essentialism, Bacevich glosses over a vital point about the Middle East today: A historic and brutal struggle between radicals and modernists for the future of the region is underway. One can argue that the United States has no place in that fight, but making sweeping generalizations about Muslims as Bacevich does limits our understanding of the forces at work in the region. It also plays into the hands of extremists who seek to divide the world by faith.

In the most troubling passage of the book, Bacevich breezily questions pluralism itself. “According to one of the prevailing shibboleths of the present age, this commingling of cultures is inherently good,” he writes. “It fosters pluralism, thereby enriching everyday life. Yet cultural interaction also induces friction, whether spontaneously generated or instigated by demagogues and provocateurs.”

We do live in a dangerous world, but it is also an inevitably interconnected one. The commingling of cultures cannot be stopped. Nor should it be.

For all that, Bacevich is right that the United States’ reflexive use of armed intervention in the Middle East is folly. An unquestioning faith in military might and an underinvestment in diplomacy has tied Washington in a policy straitjacket. Bacevich’s call for Americans to rethink their nation’s militarized approach to the Middle East is incisive, urgent and essential.

It's also far and away the most generously funded, with policymakers offering U.S. troops no shortage of opportunities to practice their craft. So why doesn't this great military ever win anything? Or put another way, why in recent decades have those forces been unable to accomplish Washington's stated wartime objectives? Why has the now 15-year-old war on terror failed to result in even a single real success anywhere in the Greater Middle East?

• Are there any military actions that the president of the United States may not order on his own authority? If so, what are they? Bit by bit, decade by decade, Congress has abdicated its assigned role in authorizing war. Today, it merely rubberstamps what presidents decide to do (or simply stays mum). Who does this deference to an imperial presidency benefit? Have U.S. policies thereby become more prudent, enlightened, and successful?

• The U.S. military today garrisons the planet in a fashion without historical precedent. Successive administrations, regardless of party, justify and perpetuate this policy by insisting that positioning U.S. forces in distant lands fosters peace, stability, and security. In the present century, however, perpetuating this practice has visibly had the opposite effect. In the eyes of many of those called upon to "host" American bases, the permanent presence of such forces smacks of occupation. They resist. Why should U.S. policymakers expect otherwise?

• Apart from a commendable determination to discomfit Trump and members of his inner circle (select military figures excepted, at least for now), journalism remains pretty much what it was prior to November 8th of last year: personalities built up only to be torn down; fads and novelties discovered, celebrated, then mocked; "extraordinary" stories of ordinary people granted 15 seconds of fame only to once again be consigned to oblivion - all served with a side dish of that day's quota of suffering, devastation, and carnage.

• In present-day America, expressing reverence for those who serve in uniform is something akin to a religious obligation. Everyone professes to cherish America's "warriors." Yet such bountiful, if superficial, expressions of regard camouflage a growing gap between those who serve and those who applaud from the sidelines. Our present-day military system, based on the misnamed All-Volunteer Force, is neither democratic nor effective. Why has discussion and debate about its deficiencies not found a place among the nation's political priorities?

• Why do terrorist attacks that kill a handful of Europeans command infinitely more American attention than do terrorist attacks that kill far larger numbers of Arabs? A terrorist attack that kills citizens of France or Belgium elicits from the United States heartfelt expressions of sympathy and solidarity. A terrorist attack that kills Egyptians or Iraqis elicits shrugs. Why the difference? To what extent does race provide the answer to that question?

There's a storm brewing down in the divided state of Virginia. On one side, we have the gun-grabbing, post-birth baby-killing, Communist Governor Ralph Northam and the new Demonrat legislative majority poised to assume control in January 2020. Standing in opposition to the Red tyrant are thousands of citizens, over 100 towns, and the majority of county sheriffs who have announced their intention to disobey the new gun laws soon to be imposed, and declared their counties as “Second Amendment Sanctuaries.”

As of now, Northam and his Demonrat goons haven't shown any signs of backing down on their announced enforcement of a whole slew of coming "gun control" ™ laws -- including enhanced universal background checks, a ban on "assault weapons" ™ and "red flag" laws that would allow the "temporary" removal of guns from someone whom the "authorities" deem to be "dangerous."

1. The tyrant Ralph Northam. // 2. His gun-grabbing scheme has stirred up  the good ol' boys of rural Virginia. // 3. The rural counties in red have all declared their defiance. The Demonrat base is mainly located in the urban and "diverse" areas.

The Marxist mask is off. Soros' wholly-owned demons in the state where CIA-Langley is based don't give a whiff about "public safety." No. Northam and his greasy gang of Globalists are only concerned about centralizing power, and disarming the rural White men in preparation for the round-up and slaughter which all commies pray (to Satan) to see one day.

Also being targeted are pro-gun police officers. Marxist Millennial Demonrat Legislator Lee Carter, 32, has sponsored a bill which would punish any cop who “willfully refuses to perform the duties of his employment” with termination. That particular piece of tyranny was filed just days after Northam threatened the counties and towns that adopted the Second Amendment sanctuary resolutions Northam: “If we have constitutional laws on the books and law enforcement officers are not enforcing those laws on the books, then there are going to be consequences, but I’ll cross that bridge if and when we get to it.”

1. Demonrat Assemblyman Lee Carter wants to cleanse Virginia law enforcement of all good cops who refuse to go after innocent gun owners. // 2. Tranny Assemblyman -- woman -- thing Danica Roehm, 35, is another outspoken gun-grabber. // 3. CIA crisis actor Chris Hurst, 32, whose fiance was fake-killed on live TV is also a member of Virginia's demonic delegation.

In addition to the hand of Soros (cough cough) in Virginia, billionaire Bolshevik Michael Bloomberg (cough cough) dropped $2.5 million to help the statehouse become narrowly Democrat (a 21 to 19 state Senate & 55 of 100 seats in the House of Delegates.) The incoming Demonrats,  seized on that narrow majority to announce coming prohibitions on the sale, transfer and possession of  “assault weapons” and standard magazines. Violating the measure would be a state felony -- which means that law abiding citizens who currently own these firearms would have to surrender them to the "authorities."

There is even talk among some Demonrats of calling out the National Guard to handle the rebellion and enforce the intended confiscation. Should that happen, expect the situation to blow up. In a way, to quote Thomas Jefferson, the Virginian father of the Declaration of Independence, some bloodshed of both "tyrants and patriots" would be necessary to water the "tree of liberty." But we suspect that at some point, Northam will blink. The whole country would explode if Demonrats started arresting or even killing the patriots of Virginia -- and Trump would have the perfect pretext to intervene on behalf of the Second Amendment activists.

We'll be keeping an eye on this dangerous drama down in Virginia. Stay tuned, and Happy New Year!.

Jefferson on liberty:  "What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? the tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots & tyrants. It is it's natural manure."

Boobus Americanus 1: I read in the New York Times today that the Governor of Virginia is not going to back down to the NRA gun nuts who are threatening to defy gun control laws.

Boobus Americanus 2: Good. It's about time someone stood up to the gun lobby.

 St. Sugar: Bring it on, Boobuss. Bring it on!

Editor: As much as I don't want to see good people get hurt or killed, an armed rebellion -- led by police and military patriots -- may be the only way out.
