Lets talk about ducks and who is lining ducks up in Syria

Lets start by being the master of the obvious:

The situation in Syria sucks. Down right horrible.

No one knows how to stop or corral the situation.

The war is a major proxy battle for all sorts of players now.

Obama is clueless as to what to do.

Putin is not the biggest obstacle to solving Syria.

Now what are the questions.

And there are many, but the one that really matters right now and it has been a couple of weeks, is why did Syria introduce chemical weapons into the war. And I am not 100% sure the government did it, maybe 90%,but not 100%.

So here are my thoughts on what is going on and who is pushing the buttons right now and why. And with recent events my thoughts are still far fetched, but my major antagonist is not going to be that surprising.

Who has the most to gain if Syria drags the United States into the fray, no matter how limited, how short lived etc. And the answer is Iran. My why is serious big picture for them and if they are thinking this far ahead then I am really scared so I hope I am wrong. Iran also has the influence to pull this off in Syria right now which is one reason I am leaning towards the government having done it.

Iran wants the US to get involved. It gains on the political front within the Islam community. It helps it gain credibility with all the terrorists, and gains and emboldens more enemies for the United States in the Middle East and now beyond. (see recent news reports with Iran asking terrorists to attack Iraq embassy) The US doesn't have a real friend in Syria to support so any action by us has no gain for the US. Iran basically convinces Al Assad to use chemical weapons because he needs their support in his civil war which forces Obama's hand and virtually no consequences for Iran while moving forward any plans they have to dominate the Islam world. They can sit back calling out the US as an enemy of the whole Islam world, getting surrogate groups to attack us in the Middle East and maybe beyond. This gains them more appeal to different groups for them including some of the more extreme Sunni groups even though ideologically they are not getting along. Gives them a huge one up on the Saudis and their proxy groups in Syria.

The above paragraph is pretty logical and doesn't take much imagination to see them trying to do this which leaves us with the next step. Iran wants to rule from China to the Mediterranean. There use to be something called the Persian Empire even before Islam took over this part of the world. Different emperors, different times, but still a history that makes me think that Islam is just part of the picture.The Saudis and there related oil rich countries are in the way. Dragging the Saudi's into a war would be counter productive. Dragging the US into Syria, dividing the Islam world even more then gaining traction with many divergent groups by attacking US and Israel in a Public relations game, allows them to have us waste energy and resources, diminishing any allies we might never gain in the Middle East and then allowing Iran to pick up the pieces as the big hero who stood up to the Crusaders. Iran doesn't use its military until they have an upper hand.

Who else gains? Russia, they take the northern half of Asia and rebuild their empire. So has an uneasy alliance developed between Russia and Iran through Syria, both using this civil war to weaken the United States both militarily, help for Israel, and our supposed credibility on the world stage. Israel becomes more in grave danger now with a large front of Islamist countries now more aligned against them. Any allies,(we never really had), the US may rely on like the Saudis now have their hands tied or they look like they are helping the US support Israel just because Iran played the anti America card better. Saudi Arabia doesn't want Iran to become any more powerful than they are, but they would be stuck with the only recourse being actual confrontation with Iran. So Iran gambles that the Saudis don't want this, and if correct they have created either a direct empire, a proxy empire, or a series of satellite states beholden to them. They now have the beginning of an empire they truly want. And the Russians go along hoping to rebuild their might because the United States is now truly war weary, wanting to back out of the situation except for Israel and have no stomach for a direct confrontation with Iran.'

So Iran looks much different in five years, Russia is worrying Europe and is much stronger in Asia, China doesn't want to support us, even with Iran and Russia growing towards their border. So my theory is that Iran if they have half my imagination is about to pull off one of the biggest usurp of power plays in the history of the world.  Lets hope I am wrong.

Or there is a new world order ( don't you love being paranoid) and all this is their way of camouflaging larger power grab and control of all things on planet earth.

Either way the whole thing sucks.

And will the United States ever get it if this isn't a New World order scenario.


Have a great night everyone, sleep well.................................. yeah right.  lol
