Middle East Manipulation Festival

The financial power of the West and the media and intellectuals at its disposal are nervous. Since the late 1990s, political, economic, cultural and military power has been lost. In 2005, the countries of Triada (Canada, the United States, Europe and South Korea), with 14 per cent of the world's population, accounted for 74.2 per cent of GDP. Conversely, the BRICS countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Africa) accounted for only 13% of GDP, half of the world's population. Five years later, in 2010, the Triada had reduced its share of the world economy by 54.5%, while the BRICS stood at 28%. The forecasts at the time indicated that BRICS would account for 43 per cent of the world economy in 2050 and would easily outweigh the economic weight of the Triad and its allies (Kingdom of the Arabian Peninsula and New Zealand - Australia) with its leftist and Middle Eastern allies.

Faced with this situation, the United States and its allies, from 2010 onwards, reformed their strategy to prevent forecasting from being met. For most impoverished countries, the first step is to regain control of resources and channel their exploitation. That is why the West attacked the price of oil and gas in coordination with its allies on the Arabian Peninsula. To fuel that strategy, they stole Libya’s sovereignty and brought it under its control.

They wanted to repeat the operation in Syria stigmatizing the present government, fighting Al Qaeda and ISIS, carrying out illegal bombings against international law, promoting the direct participation of some alliance armies and promoting an endless wave of lies and manipulations.

The NATO countries and the Arab kingdoms were free of charge from the brutal regime change in Libya. The media hid data and spread lies to create a climate that masked imperialist interests and devoured intervention. However, the plays were increasingly rare. They once scored the Goal, but in the second part they have failed. They wanted to repeat the operation in Syria by stigmatizing the current government, fighting Al Qaeda and ISIS, carrying out illegal bombings against international law, promoting the direct participation of some alliance armies and promoting an endless wave of lies and manipulations. Not everything has been enough: Russia, Iran and China have put a stop to the intervention of NATO and its allies in the Security Council.

The war is not over, but, among other things, Barack Obama and The Economist magazine, the spokesman for globalization, have made it clear that the liberation of Aleppo is the failure of the West. It should be recalled that in Aleppo no opposition was organised to the government and that in 2011 there were no demonstrations. In 2012 the jihadists began the conquest, but then the media did not tell us that siege. Four years later, the Syrian Government has freed Aleppo, in eastern Syria. NATO has lost the battle and is ready to do anything to win the media war. All international journalists and all UN delegations are in the area controlled by the Syrian Government or by the Kurds, as the chances of survival against jihadist rebels are low, with a coalition between Al Qaeda and Salafists and ISIS. However, they have repeated to us, without any source, that there has been a ‘massacre’ between the Syrian armed forces and Russia, which is fighting with respect for international legality. What are the tests? zero. Some of the first people put us into theater with white helmets, today it is fully proven that they were mounts, and what's more, the United States banned the leader of white helmets from entering its territory because of terrorist ties. The final assembly has been coordinated with videos and interviews with four jihadist militants who have spread through the media without any filter, although their facebook and twitter accounts reflected their connections with Al Qaeda and ISIS. Meanwhile, the images of celebration of the inhabitants of Aleppo have been hidden from us.
