Hezbollah is the Wild Card
Israel will probably not send ground troops into Lebanon to confront Hezbollah. Israel realizes it cannot decisively defeat Hezbollah, as its experience prior to 2000 made painfully obvious.
In fact, the mass murder campaign currently underway in Lebanon has little to do with Hezbollah, as our pro-Israel corporate media tells us, ad nauseam.
Instead, it has to do with ‘order out of chaos,’ rendering Arabs and Muslims helpless, destroying their societies. It has to do with balkanizing the Middle East, reducing once organized societies to mutually hostile tribal and ethnic factions, forever at each others throats, and thus exploitable and malleable. It is an updated version of British colonialism, the time-tested divide and conquer strategy.
If you require and example of this, look no further than Iraq where ‘civil war,’ externally imposed, works like an acid on the political and social fabric of the country, if indeed you can characterize what remains of Iraq a country. It is devolving into a patchwork of mutually antagonistic factions, tribes, religious sects, a situation created by false flag terrorism straight out of the neocon Pentagon.
Syria is next.
Enter James ‘World War IV’ Woolsey, former CIA spook and Booz Allen Hamilton VP.
Following on the heels of Newt Gingrich and William Kristol, Woolsey told Fox News loudmouth John Gibson that Syria needs a heaping dose of shock and awe (see video excerpt on the Crooks and Liars website) and this will serve as a prelude to doing likewise to Iran. The irascible Gibson asked why the United States simply does not go after Iran now and Woolsey admitted such things are done incrementally, in steps.
First Syria, and then Iran, along with North Korea.
As Juan Williams told ‘General’ Kristol on Fox the other day, the neocons ‘want war, war, war,’ an obvious enough fact, although Williams may now be reassigned to doing weather reports in Anchorage, Alaska.
