Of course, no one requires any reply directly or indirectly, because the reason is quite obvious.
After Afghanistan, Pakistan, Iraq, Libya the NATO-UNSC evils now target Iran. These western rogue states think once Syria is destabilized, its ally Iran would be completely isolated. This is their exaggerated ambition.
The Islamic Republic of Iran has not only an extensive coastline along the Persian Gulf and the Arabian Sea, it also has a significant naval fleet of destroyers, frigates and submarines. In recent years, it has developed its naval power in response to US threats. Its entire coastline is militarized.
Importantly, the Persian Gulf is a strategic waterway which is of particular relevance to US Command and Control (CC). The Arabian Sea and the Persian Gulf are heavily militarized. The US Fifth Fleet operates out of Manama, Bahrain. US Central Command (USCENTCOM) operates out of Qatar. America and its allies have several naval bases adjacent to Iranian territorial waters.
Iran is an ally of Syria but it does not have a border with Syria. For Irans commodity trade to reach the Mediterranean by land through Syria would require transit through Iraq (under US military occupation) and/or Turkey, a US ally and NATO stronghold.
The obvious reason for NATO targeting Iran and Syria has been clearly spelt out by one of hawkish presidential candidates. Syria is Irans only ally in the Arab world. Its their route to the sea. Its the route for them to arm Hezbollah in Lebanon, which threatens, of course, our ally, Israel. And so seeing Syria remove Assad is a very high priority for us (Mitt Romney, presidential debate, October 23, 2012)
But, without presidential knowledge of geopolitics and more specifically of geographic waterways, military mistakes with far-reaching consequences are more likely to occur. Already, the deadly consequences of invasion of Afghanistan by NATO terror gangs led by USA-UK terror twins have disastrous for the humanity.
But even as the CIA-Pentagon go on rampage against their perceived fake enemy, the US presidents just continue to enjoy their paid holidays their choicest locations.
That is the fate not just of the Americans alone, but entire world!
But now the Sunni Arab nations somehow think that the NATO would never attack them because they all love Arabs too much. Did Afghanistan ever think that the Russian-American-European rogue states would occupy it one day, killing millions of Muslims on some pretexts?
Did Gen Musharraf while letting the NATO rouges use Pakistani soil to attack neighboring Islamic Afghanistan for extra military aid, foresee the CIA agenda for Pakistan?
Still worse, had Jinnah who founded Islamic Pakistan to ensure existence and prosperity of Muslims foreseen decadence of that nation within about 50 years because of a corrupt system and faulty selfish leadership that uses the power and nation’s resources for their own benefits?
More bluntly, had Jinnah indeed laid foundations for a beggar puppet state without real sovereignty as the world looks at that nation now?
