Does the (allegedly) staged Oct 7 attack is about renewing the Trans-Arabian Pipeline (as a gas pipeline) and toppling Bashar Assad – in order to replace the Russian gas supply to Europe. It worked pretty well for the US once in 1949, so they might be trying it again.
Several facts point in this direction:
First, the enormous strike force – mainly American but not only – that has been built in the Mediterranean Sea. The formal justification is “to deter Iran”, but for this purpose this force should be deployed near Iran. The USS Ford, the newest, largest and most advanced aircraft carrier of the US Navy was headed to the east Mediterranean just one day after Oct. 7 attack, with its accompanying strike group. Apparently, it’s been already in the Med Sea waters – must be a coincidence.
Also, U.S. Air Force F-15 Strike Eagles Deploy To Jordan Amid Gaza Crisis – October 14, 2023.
And US to send 2nd aircraft carrier to eastern Mediterranean – October 15, 2023.
And USS Mount Whitney Deploys to the Region with Senior Admiral Aboard. It is a command and control ship, the flagship of the U.S. Sixth Fleet. Mount Whitney also serves as the Floating Command Platform (ACP) for NATO’s Naval striking and support forces. – October 18, 2023. (We’ll stop at that.)
Second, while all eyes and ears and fiery debates (about who is the evil and who the Devil) are focused on Israel-Gaza conflict, and while it feels as if the Media reports in much details only on these occurrences and on the protests against them all around the world – it might be just a distraction from the real US and West intentions. It is as much important to heed to what the media do not talk about, as to what they do report – may be even more.
Third, on November 15, 2023, a Frech Court issued an arrest warrant to Bashar Assad for war crimes, allegedly happened in 2013. So why now? Why did they wait 10 years? Is it in order to prepare the public mind to regard a war against Syria as justified.
Fourth, 360,000 IDF reservists were mobilized and together with the regular army, it is more than in Yom Kippur War.
Fifth, “The Golan Heights loaded with military presence”. (a trustworthy eye witness)
Sixth, (November 22 update) – Significant air traffic of US and West airplanes to Lebanon: “Between October 8 and November 10, 32 planes landed, nine of which belonged to the US, Dutch, and British Air Forces and landed at the Hamat base, and 23 planes belonging to the US, French, Dutch, Spanish, Canadian, Italian, and Saudi armies landed at the base designated for military and diplomatic aircraft on the west side of Beirut Airport.” Including some mysterious flights from Israel to Lebanon touching Cyprus surface to refrain from breaking the law. Are these flights intended to strengthen military capabilities against Hezbollah, or actually against Syria?
Some background and history of the Tran-Arabian Pipeline:
The Trans-Arabian Pipeline was built as part of a joint venture between four American oil companies: Standard Oil of New Jersey, now Esso, Standard Oil of California-Chevron, Texaco, and Socony-Vacuum Oil Company Mobil. But was eventually acquired by Aramco. The company built and operated the oil pipeline, which stretched for 1,214 km from Kaysouma in Saudi Arabia (south of the neutral zone between Iraq and Saudi Arabia) to the port of Zahrani, Sidon in Lebanon.
The pipeline began operating in 1950 and at its peak carried half a million barrels of oil per day. The pipeline was an important factor in the world’s oil trade and strengthened the U.S. position in the Middle East.
Wikipedia tell us that the Syrian government initially opposed the plan, but four days after a military coup d’état which toppled the democratic elected president, Shukri al-Quwatli, the deal was ratified. The coup’s leader, Husni al-Za’im, was overthrown and murdered 136 days later, but the project was unstoppable.
On 30 March 1949, al-Za’im seized power in a bloodless coup d’état. There are “highly controversial” [Wikipedia] allegations that the U.S. CIA engineered the coup. The coup was carried out with discreet backing of the American embassy, concerned about the increasing presence of far-left anti-democratic elements in the government, possibly assisted by Syrian internal political elements.
