According to Dr Ali Kadri, war is big businesses. I guess the vultures don't want the Syrian war to end because there is so much money to be made it of it. And they want to get those gas pipelines from Saudi Arabia to Europe because that's when the big bucks start. If only people in the West knew what's going on?

Now how does Steve Bannon square this up with his Christianity? But he wanted a war with Iran.

On Friday, August 31st, Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov announced that Russia has handed to the OPCW (Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons), and to the U.N., “proof” that the U.S. Government has been working with Al Qaeda to set up a chemical incident in Syria. The U.S. and its allies will then use that incident as a supposed justification for invading Syria as a ‘humanitarian’ response to a chemical attack allegedly by Syria’s Government, but actually done by U.S.-backed forces. The goal is to re-ignite the 7-year-old ‘civil war’ between Syria’s Government and U.S.-backed ‘rebels’, who consist almost exclusively of fundamentalist-Sunni jihadists that are trained and led by Al Qaeda in Syria, with U.S. help and Saudi financing.
On August 29th Global Research headlined “Video: US Creates Strike Force to Attack Syria”, and posted an August 28th report from South Front saying:

But it gets serous: the nuclear war threat again which we were trying to avoid with the election of Trump. It just goes to show there is no democracy. And see how the British and the French are in on the action. KV
Also on April 18th, Turkey’s newspaper Yeni Safak headlined “US to build Arab force in NE Syria as part of new ploy: The US is seeking to amass an Arab force in northeastern Syria comprised of funding and troops from Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the UAE.”

That effort by Trump failed; so, the only path forward for him on Syria now is a U.S. invasion, but this one will have to be much larger than the last one, which was done on April 14th, and in which UK and France also supplied a few of the 100+ missiles. Perhaps, if the U.S. does that, Russia will this time target and maybe destroy some U.S. planes and warships. Then, the question would be whether to go to all-out nuclear war, over the Syrian matter and, of course, over America’s other excuses for its aggressions against Russia and its allies, such as America’s 2014 conquest of Ukraine and turning that country over to nazis.
Perhaps these are the reasons why Russia is announcing clearly, ahead of time, that it won’t simply acquiesce if the U.S. tries this faked accusation against Syria, yet again. Perhaps things won’t be so easy, if there is a “next time” on this particular matter.

Eric Zuesse - Russia Squelches Trump’s New Plan to Invade Syria

From the Economy of Permanent War, by Claire Connelly.

War is not an anomaly, nor an exception to the rule, but a prerequisite of free trade, or so says Dr Ali Kadri, Senior Fellow at the National University of Singapore.

Dr Kadri specialises in the economics of accumulation through destruction, the production of waste and militarism, particularly in the Middle East.
He is a former visiting fellow at the Department of International Development at the London School of Economics and the principal author of several United Nations reports addressing the right to development in Western Asia.
