Obama and Putin Lining Up to Take Over Syria’s WMDs?

US President Barack Obama, though widely expected to pursue direct action against Syrian ruler Bashar following the Houla atrocity, is preoccupied with what he regards as a greater threat to the world: a potential grab for the huge Syrian stock of chemical and biological weapons by Al Qaeda’s or other terrorist organizations. This is reported exclusively by debkafile’s Washington and intelligence sources.

The US president is trying to persuade Russian President Vladimir Putin to accept his new plan for the immediate assignment by the UN Security Council of 3,000 armed monitors to Syria to take charge of the six chemical and biological stores. Another 2,000 will join the team later. To allay Putin’s suspicions of a trick to insert Western armed forces into Syria against Moscow’s will, Obama suggested that most of the monitors would be Russian or nationals of governments lining up with its support of the Assad regime. Our sources learn that, in one of the conversations between the two presidents, Obama commented: “If only one barrel of anthrax reaches the hands of a Caucasian terrorist group, Russian will face its greatest terrorist threat in its history. Millions of Russians may perish.”

It was clear from this comment that Assad’s WMD are not stored as warheads, bombs or shells but kept in large barrels or kegs in six underground bunkers, holding Sarin (GB), Tabun (GA) and VX nerve gases, some four kinds of mustard gas and anthrax. The storage silos are spread out among Al Safir, the main Syrian missile base in the north; Cerin, a biological research center on the Mediterranean shore; military facilities at Hama and Homs; the Syrian naval base leased to the Russians at Latakia;  and Palmyra, on the highway between Homs and Aleppo.

According to the information reaching US intelligence, three of these locations are situated in heavily embattled areas between the Syrian army and rebels, in addition to which, in the last two weeks, al Qaeda elements have penetrated the war-torn districts with a view to seizing some of the WMD stores. Obama warned Putin that the jihadists have never been so close to getting hold of large quantities of such deadly unconventional weapons, especially now that the Syrian army’s 4th Division, commanded by Assad’s brother Maher, which guards those stores, is additionally assigned with suppressing the revolt and therefore inadequately manned for securing them.

If the Russian President buys his plan for 5,000 international monitors to take over the security assignment, Obama hopes he will also persuade Assad and even Tehran to accept it. Early Thursday, May 31, the US president held a video-conference call on the subject with German Chancellor Angela Merkel, French President Francois Hollande and Italian Prime Minister Mario Monti, to brief them on his initiative and his talks with Putin.

debkafile’s sources in Washington and Jerusalem add that Obama also sent personal messages to Israeli Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu and Defense Minister Ehud Barak warning them that if al Qaeda or any other terrorist groups get hold of these weapons of death, they could be smuggled into the West Bank and Gaza Strip. “Israel would be their number one target,” he said. These messages were relayed to Israeli leaders this week through visiting senior US intelligence and government figures, with the president’s assessment that the danger of Syrian WMD falling into terrorist hands was now more acute than a nuclear Iran. It provided the context for the IDF’s OC Northern Command Maj. Gen. Yair Golan’s remark Wednesday: “Within weeks or months we may face al Qaeda attacks from Syria.”

The Russian president has not yet given Obama his answer, still suspecting an American ruse for placing Western troops inside Syria. Hence his spokesman’s statement Wednesday: “Russia is not considering changing its stance on Syria and any attempts to apply pressure on Moscow are hardly appropriate.”

Tehran, taking this to mean that Putin has not rejected Obama’s proposal, was put out enough for a forceful threat: “Western intervention in Syria would result in a regional upheaval that would undoubtedly engulf Israel,” said Iranian parliament speaker Ali Larijani. “It would spread to Palestine and ash rising from the flames would definitely engulf the Zionist regime…US military officials should be aware of their dangerous game.”

This was taken by sources in Washington as an Iranian threat to burn Israel if Obama’s plan to post 5,000 armed monitors in Syria goes through. Iranian sources told debkafile that the threat was aimed equally at deterring Putin from cooperating with it. Susan Rice, the US ambassador to the UN, capped these veiled messages by warning the UN Security Council Wednesday night: “This becomes a proxy conflict with arms flowing in from all sides. And members of this Council and members of the international community are left with the option only of having to consider whether they are prepared to take actions outside of the Annan plan and the authority of this Council.”

By these words, the White House informed the Kremlin that if President Putin rejects Obama’s plan for posting 5,000 monitors in Syria, Washington will feel free to bypass the UN and the Russian veto and launch US-Western armed action in Syria in defiance of Moscow.

Obama’s Gaffe Hints at Hidden Agenda in Second Term

By Michael Barone via Townhall

Kasey’s note:  I am very afraid of what our man-child, narcissistic President could do to America if given another four years.  The I, Me, My President (except when it comes to owning the blame for something) is living in his make-believe kingdom where he is the ruler and we are his subjects.  He believes he is omnipotent and can make his own rules without any regard to Congress or the Constitution. We should be very concerned about his recent comment – a sign of a very power-driven and delusional leader.

“I actually did vote for the $87 billion before I voted against it.”

So said John Kerry, in Huntington, W.V., on Tuesday, March 16, 2004, two weeks after he had clinched the Democratic presidential nomination by carrying every state but Vermont in the Super Tuesday primaries.

Kerry was responding to an ad run by George W. Bush’s campaign criticizing his 2003 vote against an $87 billion supplemental appropriation for the Iraq war. Two days later, the Bush campaign ran an edited version of the ad with the “actually did vote” footage added.

Kerry had a defensible position. He did actually vote for a Democratic version of the supplemental that included a provision raising tax rates on high earners. He voted against the Republican version without the tax increase, knowing it would pass. The troops would not go unfunded.

But those 14 words were repeated again and again by the Bush campaign in the next eight months. Kerry was labeled a flip-flopper, and delegates at the Republican National Convention brandished flip-flops for the TV cameras one night.

The “did actually vote” sentence hurt Kerry because it underlined a critical weakness.

Like most other Senate Democrats, including Kerry’s vice presidential nominee John Edwards, Kerry had voted for the Iraq War resolution in October 2002. But when things started going badly in Iraq in 2003, and after consistent Iraq War opponent Howard Dean shot to the top in Democratic polls, Kerry like many other Democrats said the war was a mistake and should be ended.

Thus the statement met columnist Michael Kinsley’s famous definition of a gaffe: when a politician tells the truth. Kerry supported the war, then opposed the war. Flip, flop.

Fast forward to Monday, March 26, 2012, in Seoul, South Korea. Barack Obama was talking to outgoing Russian President Dmitry Medvedev. He was evidently unaware that his comments were audible via an open microphone.

“On all these issues, but particularly missile defense, this, this can be solved, but it’s important for him to give me space,” Obama said. “Yeah, I understand, I understand your message about space. Space for you,” the Russian replied.

“This is my last election,” Obama said. “After my election, I have more flexibility.”

“I understand,” Medvedev said. “I will transmit this information to Vladimir.” The reference is to Vladmir Putin, the real ruler of Russia during Medvedev’s Potemkin presidency.

Note Obama’s use of the first-person adjective. Most American politicians speak of “the” election. Obama calls it “my” election. This sort of personalization comes naturally to a leader whose first public reaction to the death of a Florida teenager was, “If I had a son, he’d look like Trayvon.”

But of course what’s really damaging here is the implication that Obama has a hidden second-term agenda.

Mitt Romney, Rick Santorum and Newt Gingrich were all quick to pounce. “President Obama signaled that he’s going to cave to Russia on missile defense, but the American people have a right to know where else he plans to be flexible in a second term,” Romney said.

Romney went too far in characterizing Russia as “our number one geopolitical foe.” But Russia is at least a strategic competitor and, despite Obama’s “reset,” not a particularly friendly or helpful one.

Already in his first term Obama propitiated Russia by canceling missile defense installations in Poland and the Czech Republic, both NATO allies. “Were they trading Poland?” headlined the Polish tabloid Fakt yesterday.

And Obama certainly surprised the Catholic bishops with his Health and Human Services decree that Catholic hospitals’ health insurance must include coverage of procedures they consider sinful. What further surprises are in store for them and others in a second term?

Obama felt obliged to defend his statement by saying it will take “the next nine, 10 months to work through some of the technical aspects” of missile defense. That’s weaker than Kerry’s response.

Some commentators are saying Obama’s words will hurt less than Romney’s press spokesman’s “Etch-a-Sketch” analogy. But that hurts mainly in Republican primaries, and Romney seems well on his way to the nomination.

Obama’s comment reminds general election voters, most of whom dislike his current major policies, that he might go even further “after my election.”

The Republican National Committee has already cut a 60-second spot on Obama’s words. You can expect to hear them as often this year as voters heard Kerry’s damaging sentence in 2004.

Russia Issues International Arrest Warrant for Convicted Felon George Soros

Putin Issues Arrest Warrant for Financial Terrorist George Soros!!

DAVOS/SWITZERLAND, 27JAN10 - George Soros, Cha...

Soros’ use of these cross-collateralized compounded derivatives utilizing Luxembourg banks violates the terms of the Basil II European Union banking agreement.

The thing that should give pause to the Heads of State Western is like Putin did in freeing Russia from those who wanted to bring the total economic and social collapse and beat up in jail all those who have tried.

Are they influencing Lubawitschern Putin? The fact is that Putin is loyal to Russia and its people, and never allow anyone, even when he is in command in that nation, to sell out his country and into the clutches of the NWO lasciarela. For this he ordered to issue an international arrest warrant against George Soros, who has been caught red-handed as he prepared to send financial aid to what is called opposition in Russia, which recently made the streets in dozens of thousands of people telling lies and misinformation-cheating during the elections.

Now Mr. Soros has little room to continue his dirty games with the speculation that has devastated the entire global financial system, in collaboration Rothschild / Rockefeller and other jackals.

Putin’s speech, which was officially issued by the Russian authorities.

Today it is made public the following statement by the Russian Federation and its Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, has been asked for an arrest warrant against the International Terrorist Finance, the Hungarian currency-Mogul George Soros, the Russian secret serviceshave found that Soros was using foreign currency derivatives with other Danes to start an attack against the Russian Currency Shares in the market.

  1. Political Vel Craft In Russia’s Pravda: Obama The Chicken Is Being Plucked!

It should be noted that Soros was using these derivatives with the help of Luxembourg banks, which is forbidden after the contract was made by the EU called Basel II.

Both the IMF (International Monetary Fund) and European Union have issued an Interpol “Red Notice” which is not only against the immediate arrest of Soros, but also against the Sharks on Finance, Bush, Clinton, criminal organization, Marc Rich and his firm, which is located in Switzerland, the Commodities Broker-Richfield, which is why the Russian Premier Putin has recently met the Chef of the Federal Reserve Bernanke Bermard making clear that the Russian Federation will not accept that such use is made of people like Soros and Rich to commit criminal acts of the derivatives market and Finance, which led to social destabilization across the globe.

Putin will be done and start the hunt for these criminals and their accomplices Bankers Rothschild, Rockefeller.

Turkey does not go down to the will of the West.

The turkey is not associated with the embargo that the U.S. / Israel and the EU have decided to take against Iran, has stated that the turkish government spokesman, adding that since the decision when the embargo will not be officially given by ‘ UN, Turkey will continue to import oil from Iran, since both states have agreed in the contracts they have in common, the spokesman continued his speech, stating that the EU states that have passed the Embargo you are penalized for their own to please the U.S. government without thinking that the reactions of citizens would be contrary to their decisions, this leads to moodiness and social problems (they’re seeing), Iran itself has decided to cut oil supplies to the EU immediately even if they decided that the embargo should be implemented within 6 months from the declaration.

Turkey itself has commercial contracts with Iran, which also consist of providing material for the maintenance of its nuclear plants that are used for electricity and how it is spread by the Western media who write under pressure governments US / Israeli that control them 100%, that Iran is almost ready to build its atomic and therefore always to serve their master without thinking such catastrophic consequences may ensue, to consider that the Obama administration had agreed that the Turkey remained on good terms with Iran, since when “probably” a threat by the Israeli government to influence the upcoming elections for the presidency, has persuaded him to change course.

The Israeli government made the request of the Greek government of Israeli troops to be stationed with the adjacent military airport on the island of Cyprus, makes it clear that diplomacy has no place in the ranks of the Israeli government, for them, there is only violence under the guise of a threat does not exist and with which they would like to take the absolute domination in the Middle East.

.P.S. At this hour the government of Greece is ready to leave the European Union and try to save their nation similar to that which took place in Iceland.

P.P.P.S. This is a direct warning to the privately owned, criminal Federal Reserve:

Any attempt to ‘bail out’ Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan and their bogus credit claims against the nation of Greece using U.S. Taxpayers money will lead to a major response by the U.S. Military.

In closing, a direct message to alleged pResident Barack Hussein Obama-Soetoro:

When you signed the TREASONOUS, UN-Constitutional National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which permanently shredded the U.S. Constitution, you declared war on theAmerican People and forfeited any chance of an alleged re-election.
