7 Reasons To Doubt Latest Holocaust Claims Against AssadBrandon Turbeville Coming at just the right time to ignite outrage and indignation in the dazed American public, as virtually every other report and incident in Syria has attempted to do since 2010, an alleged Syrian defector has allegedly provided thousands of photographs revealing what mainstream propagandists are calling a smoking gun of Assads humanitarian crimes. The alleged defector, who only goes by the name Caesar, spoke in front of a closed-door session of the House Foreign Affairs Committee in late July, 2014. The photos, which are supposed to number in the tens of thousands are now being analyzed by the Federal Bureau of Investigation at the request of the Ambassador-At-Large For War Crimes, Steven J.Rapp. Rapp stated in an interview that the photos are horrific some of them put you in visceral pain. This is some of the strongest evidence weve seen in the area of proof of the commission of mass atrocities. Rapp, apparently intending to head off any suggestions that the photos may be either fakes or photos of some other atrocity perhaps committed by the death squads armed, trained, funded, and directed by NATO, the Ambassador has claimed that the FBI assured him that they think it is impossible that the photographs could be forgeries. Rapp says that the FBI assured that there is no evidence of doctoring. This, of course, is quite a bizarre conclusion to reach since the investigation is not yet over. Thus, one must wonder if the FBI had determined the veracity of the photographs before even opening the packages they came in. As Michael Isikoff writes for Yahoo! News, But by the summer of 2013, Caesar has told investigators, he was so sickened by what he was seeing that he made contact with Syrian rebels. I cant do this anymore, he told them, according to David Crane, a former war-crimes prosecutor for Sierra Leone who spent hours interviewing Caesar as part of a separate review of the photos commissioned by the government of Qatar. [] Caesar began smuggling his photos to the rebels, providing them with thumb drives concealed in his shoes, Crane said. To protect his family, Caesar faked his death, staging an elaborate funeral, before he escaped from Syria in August 2013. He is now in hiding in Europe. The photos, according to Crane, document an industrial killing machine not seen since the Holocaust. They show corpses, some of them lined up in a warehouse, many appearing to be victims of starvation, their ribs protruding from emaciated bodies. The Syrian government has denied most of the photos as fake and has stated that it believes many of them to be pictures of dead terrorists who were killed in battle. The Syrian governments suggestions are entirely plausible and, indeed, quite likely to be true. Remember, NATO has already attempted to frame the Assad government for a number of war crimes and atrocities that later turned out to be the handiwork of the terrorists funded by NATO itself. The Ghouta chemical weapons attack, the famous Houla massacre, and a number of other atrocities all come to mind instantly. Unfortunately, in a gross insult to the victims of the Nazis, the Holocaust museum is placing a number of these photographs on display for propaganda purposes, an obvious attempt to dredge up memories of the Holocaust and paint Assad as the new Hitler. Such ridiculous comparisons were made the first and second time this cynical display of propaganda was pushed in mainstream media outlets. As it was then, there remain a number of reasons to question the photographs, reports, and defectors presenting the smoking gun against Assad now. 1.) The Gulf State Feudal Monarchy Qatar is the sponsor of one of the main reports and reviews of the photographs. Qatar is, of course, one of the major sponsors of the Syrian invasion (aka the Syrian rebels) and has played a massively important role in financing, training, arming, and directing the death squads currently being mopped up by the Assad government. 2.) The source of the report and photographs. One would be justified in questioning the nature of the reports and photos since the sole source of the material comes by virtue of an allegedly defected Syrian military police officer who was apparently fine with photographing thousands of dead victims for over a year until now. Regardless of the possibility for such a moral conversion, taking information from a defected member of government forces once again returns us to the realm of the activists say school of journalism a notorious method used by Western media outlets to promote the side of the death squads and only the side of the death squads as fact in popular reports. Note that Caesar himself claims that he was in touch with the Syrian opposition, meaning terrorist death squads and cannibal savages funded by the West. Apparently, he thought these murderers as a better option than Assad. If so, that perspective tells us much about the allegiances and affiliations of Caesar. 3.) Caesar reminiscent of Curveball. We cannot forget the famous Codename, Curveball that played a major role in the initiation of a previous and still ongoing conflict that was later admitted to be a fabrication. Being fooled by the same type of propaganda twice in eleven years is indeed a humiliation too great for a country to bear. 4.) Past claims of Assads Crimes Against Humanity. It is important to remember past experiences with Western charges against Assad for alleged crimes against humanity, all of which turned out to have been committed by the death squads, not the Syrian government. From the Houla massacre to the Ghouta chemical weapons attacks, the Syrian government has been exonerated by all credible evidence. The death squads, however, have been proven guilty by virtue of their own video tapes and YouTube accounts, of some of the most horrific acts imaginable. While many innocent people have no doubt been killed in the crossfire between the military and the death squads, the Western media has done everything in its power to place the blood of each and every death inside Syria in the hands of the government. 5.) Possibility that the death squads could have killed the victims shown in the photographs, that the death squads are themselves the victims, or that the photographs contain a mix of the two. The victims shown in the report have clearly been abused and starved. However, before jumping to conclusions about just how these unfortunate individuals met their fate, perhaps it would be a good idea to look back at the context of the victims. As mentioned earlier, the death squads operating in Syria are no strangers to crimes against humanity, murder, and torture. In fact, they have been both the initiators of such depravity and overwhelmingly the largest proprietors of it. Furthermore, the fact that the victims were starved does not necessarily mean that they were starved by the government. Indeed, it is important to remember that, due to the siege of a number of cities by both the military and the death squads as well as due to death squad cruelty and attempted cordoning off of specific areas, food shortage has been a serious concern in some areas for some time. There is also plentiful evidence of death squad groups killing innocent people and shipping their bodies to the places where cameras are set up, waiting for the recording of the propaganda piece. The Ghouta chemical attack is just one instance in which innocent civilians were captured and killed by the death squads and used as stage props for propaganda purposes. Indeed, it is also important to remember that the death squads themselves are quite adept at keeping prisoners in atrocious conditions. Remember, it was reported not too long ago that the Syrian military was able to free a number of captive Syrian women from the hands of the death squads who had kept them in captivity in underground tunnels for months on end for the purposes of using them as sex slaves. 6.) The photographs were conveniently released just two days before the Geneva II Peace Conference meeting on Syria the first time. Now they are conveniently released as the United States and NATO are considering a Buffer Zone in Syria. After the retraction of an invitation to Iran to attend the peace conference, the Qatari-funded report regarding the photographs was released just two days before the peace conference was scheduled to take place. With such evidence being studied and analyzed and a report being compiled, to believe that it was only a coincidence that the information was released two days before the conference is absurd. If this evidence was real and of such grave importance why did world leaders only learn of it days before the peace conference? If world leaders knew, why did it take so long to hear about it? Now, as the United States and NATO eye a no-fly zone in Syria, the photographs are being recycled complete with the requisite Hitler references during the run-up to the implementation of the buffer zone. The convenience of this report for the NATO and GCC agenda to destroy Syria and overthrow Assad is such that precludes its honesty. 7.) Involvement of Color Revolution NGOs. Caesars entire trip to the United States has been organized and facilitated by the Coalition For A Democratic Syria, an organization that has very close ties with the National Democratic Institute (NDI), a subsidiary of the National Endowment for Democracy, both groups being notorious color revolutions operations. The NDI website states that It is also notable that the SDCs website contains a number of pictures of Syria with the Green, White and Black flag of the death squads and their smokescreen moderate faction instead of the real Red, White, and Black flag of the Syrian government. The NDI website also admits funding terrorists in Syria albeit through very couched terms. It says, Considering all of the information provided in this article, taken in conjunction with the convenient timing of the release of the reports and the photographs (convenient, at least, for the enemies of Syria), as well as the fact that NGOs, color revolution organizations, and shadowy defectors are providing the information, such reports and photographs should be taken with a large grain of salt. The Western media has not only been wrong, but has lied on so many occasions in the past, that it cannot be expected to tell the truth now.
