Obama-Netanyahu Fallout is Theater - Planned in 2009Tony Cartalucci However, before it came to that, the Brookings Institutions policymakers explored other options including fomenting US-backed political unrest coupled with covert, violent force, the use of US State Department listed foreign terrorist organizations to carry out assassinations and attacks within Iran, and limited airstrikes carried out by either the US or Israel, or both. In retrospect, 6 years on, all of these tricks have not only been attempted to one degree or another in Iran, but have been demonstrably employed in neighboring Syria to diminish its strength which according to Brookings is a necessary prerequisite before waging war on Iran. And of particular interest considering what appears to be a growing diplomatic row between the United States and Israel is just how precisely the US planned to covertly back what would be made to appear as a unilateral Israeli first strike on Iran an attack that appears to be in the process of being justified through a carefully orchestrated propaganda campaign now unfolding. From the Mouths of US Policymakers Themselves The Brookings Institutions 2009 policy paper titled, Which Path to Persia? Options for a New American Strategy Toward Iran, makes clear that negotiations with Iran over its nuclear program is merely theater, and that it will be used to give the world the impression that the United States explored all possible peaceful options before resorting to violent regime change. The report states specifically that: any military operation against Iran will likely be very unpopular around the world and require the proper international context both to ensure the logistical support the operation would require and to minimize the blowback from it. The best way to minimize international opprobrium and maximize support (however, grudging or covert) is to strike only when there is a widespread conviction that the Iranians were given but then rejected a superb offerone so good that only a regime determined to acquire nuclear weapons and acquire them for the wrong reasons would turn it down. Under those circumstances, the United States (or Israel) could portray its operations as taken in sorrow, not anger, and at least some in the international community would conclude that the Iranians brought it on themselves by refusing a very good deal. Of course, Iran as admitted to by Brookings themselves is not governed by irrational leadership, and would not turn down a genuinely superb offer. The Brookings Institution admits openly that the US pursues a dual track foreign policy one for public consumption (making superb offers) and another aimed at ensuring Iran looks as unreasonable as possible. At one point in the policy paper, Brookings would state: The truth is that these all would be challenging cases to make. For that reason, it would be far more preferable if the United States could cite an Iranian provocation as justification for the airstrikes before launching them. Clearly, the more outrageous, the more deadly, and the more unprovoked the Iranian action, the better off the United States would be. Of course, it would be very difficult for the United States to goad Iran into such a provocation without the rest of the world recognizing this game, which would then undermine it. (One method that would have some possibility of success would be to ratchet up covert regime change efforts in the hope that Tehran would retaliate overtly, or even semi-overtly, which could then be portrayed as an unprovoked act of Iranian aggression.) Yet despite this open admission, conspiring against world peace, what is of more interest is the United States plans to disavow any responsibility for an attack it would use its regional proxy, Israel, to carry out in its place. It states specifically under a chapter titled, Allowing or Encouraging an Israeli Military Strike, that: the most salient advantage this option has over that of an American air campaign is the possibility that Israel alone would be blamed for the attack. If this proves true, then the United States might not have to deal with Iranian retaliation or the diplomatic backlash that would accompany an American military operation against Iran. It could allow Washington to have its cake (delay Irans acquisition of a nuclear weapon) and eat it, too (avoid undermining many other U.S. regional diplomatic initiatives). To no ones surprise the British Daily Mail now reports in an article titled, President Obama threatened to shoot down Israeli jets if they attacked Iranian nuclear facilities last year, claim sources, that: President Obama is alleged to have stopped an Israeli military attack against Irans nuclear facilities in 2014 by threatening to shoot down Israeli jets before they could reach their targets, according to reports to emerge from the Middle East at the weekend The threat from the U.S. forced Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu to abort a planned attack on Iraq, reported Kuwaiti newspaper Al-Jarida. Netanyahu will be in Washington for an address to Congress on Tuesday aimed squarely at derailing Obamas cherished bid for a diplomatic deal with Tehran. Here, the Daily Mail repeats a growing narrative that dovetails neatly into long-standing US foreign policy described by the Brookings Institutions report in 2009 down to the letter. In fact, the prospect of shooting down Israeli planes was discussed as one of many props used in this geopolitical theater. The US, as prescribed by Brookings, is portrayed as desperately trying to hammer out an almost unreasonably accommodation with Iran, while mad dog Israel seeks to unilaterally attack Iran thus giving the US the plausible deniability it openly claimed it would disingenuously attempt to create ahead of any Israeli attack on Iran. It should be noted that the summation of Israels military might is a result long, extensive, and continuous US military support meaning that Israeli military operation is even possible without it. It is also clear that the 2009 Which Path to Persia? policy paper still represents a vivid window into a much deeper and well-entrenched doctrine still to this day being used to reorder the Middle East into alignment with Western special interests. It is a signed confession of a now evident conspiracy against global peace and stability. It should be read, in full, before the United Nations Security Council before those who wrote it and the corporate-financier interests who sponsored it are brought to international justice. Anything less proves that the United States and its regional proxies, not Iran, are the rogue states, working against global peace and stability, with many standing examples already of their atrocities on display, and more apparently still to come. Tony Cartaluccis articles have appeared on many alternative media websites, including his own at Two different faces of evil. Iran is not fooled by their game. Unfortunately, the majority of the American public are fooled and have been hoodwinked for a long long time Sympathy for the Devil is a great song. Ill be playing it in the background while Bibi gives his speech before Congress. Please do yourself a favor and mute the box when the pig demon spews its vile disdain for the living world Lucifer is coming to rape America of its young men and women. LOL Lets see; a rabidly xenophobic, apartheid, serially ethnic cleansing, self-proclaimed theocracy with nuclear weapons, whats not to love? Iranian Jews live in peace inside Iran. The Iranians dont hate Jews, but they do not like Israeli Zionists. Anything else is propaganda for war. The Rothschild State, AKA; Israel. Imagine how deceived the sheeple will be with a state controlled internet? They already have. Feel free to look up all the videos from 2008/2009 of Obama speaking at AIPAC and proclaiming his unwavering support for Israel. Feel free to look up all the Zionist advisors who close ranks around Obama. This is all theatrics. Some of it may be to throw people off from thinking that Zionists/Israel control the USA because this is now becoming public knowledge and the propaganda techniques of labelling the truth conspiracy theory and anti-Semite have worn thin. I figured as much. All the world is a stage. This particular instance is not exceptional. There is very little truly dynamic activity in politics it is MOSTly theatrics. Funny I cant remember the last time Iran invaded another country. The truth is, there is no truth, not even in this article.. Naw,its the truth.Just not politically correct. This reminds me of three people I use to work with. They fought, argued, put each other down, yelled at each other and some people fell for their not getting along. BUT, the same three went hunting, fishing and had family get together, they were total BS. They snow job a lot of people and used it to get their way. Someone better attack something my dividend check hangs in the balance And what else to expect from the epicenter of evil, Jewmerika and her handler Israel? Obamas and Netanyahus political difference are all a front Once the lid comes off that can o truth. Where will they hide? Its all an act on the world stage. Israel will still get its billions in US taxpayer dollars every year. Not to mention all the military aid on top of that. Aggression towards the enemies of jews and Israel will continue all over the world with bogus wars and assasinations, not to mention the arming of terrorists groups, such as ISIS. Jews will still own almost all sports teams, banks, insurance companies, stores, the federal reserve, medical supply companies, etc., etc.. Yeah, its ALL a scam. There is no truth left in this world except in the lower/lowest levels of human society where truth and honesty is alot of times all one has to their name. Upper levels are nothing but lies and agendas. its simply the nature of the beast. There has NEVER been such a thing as a completely truthful and honest king or queen. They must lie and deceive to SOME degree in order to preserve their position. The movers and shakers behind the scenes are no different. They gauge the public opinion on current events and then tailor their agendas to accommodate for a degree of satisfaction amongst the citizenry. Like now. They know the public image of Israel is far less than flattering, so now theyre creating the illusion that there is some tension between Bibi and Obama. its ALL theater. At the end of the day Israel WILL get what it wants and Iran or whoever else WILL be attacked. Where things go from their is anyones guess, but dont buy the horsesh*! sure to be shoveled at you through the MSM that either Israel acted unilaterally or that it was provoked, because NEITHER would be true. There has NEVER been such a thing as a completely truthful and honest king or queen.
