A Synopsis Of This Morning's News... H/t to ChrisM my MP3Angel for supplying the audio files. «o»President Obama reached out to Iran for the Persian New Year saying he wanted to open talks and attempt to wind down the rhetoric about their nuclear power program. Some US Republicans and some Iranian theocrats holding political office In Iran are denouncing the president's move. I'd conjecture on the similarities between the two but good taste implies I desist lest the Iranian theocrats seem more reasonable in their opinion of president Obama.
«o»A US English teacher has been assassinated in a Yemeni university town leading to the distinct possibility that all US citizens in the country are in danger despite the fact that our drone strikes are continuing to wipe out that county's population a few citizens at a time... Or perhaps that's the reason US citizens are in danger there.
«o»The transportation bill passed last week by the Senate is now in the house of representatives, and despite the fact that the entire transportation infrastructure of the country will begin disintegrating if the bill isn't passed by the end of the month, in it's first day back in session, the house Republicans spent the whole day haggling over the use of 32 acres of federal land.
«o»The results for the Illinois Republican primaries are pretty much in and Romney, lagging the predictions, took the race by 12 points. There are a couple of other primaries coming up this week.
In OTHER News:
Since the MSM doesn't seem to be covering the Syrian destabilization campaign, yours truly will, and this group of clips may explain why the West has dropped their coverage like a hot Falafel:
It has been confirmed that members of Libya’s Al Qaeda affiliate, the NATO-backed LIFG 'rebels', are now literally leading the so-called Free Syrian Army (FSA).
In recent months, a certain number of Arab newspapers, favorable to the Al-Assad administration, discussed the infiltration into Syria of 600 to 1,500 fighters from the Islamic Fighting Group in Libya (IFGL), rebranded Al Qaeda in Libya since November 2007. In late November 2011, the Libyan press reported the attempt by the Zintan militia to detain Abdel Hakim Belhaj, companion of Osama Bin Laden [2] and historic leader of Al Qaeda in Libya, who became military governor of Tripoli by the grace of NATO [3]. The scene took place at Tripoli airport, as he was leaving for Turkey. Finally, Turkish newspapers mentioned Mr. Belhaj’s presence at the Turkish-Syrian... [In Full @ VoltaireNet]
Let it also be noted that the Syrian 'rebels' are also engaged in a campaign of murder and torture... Just like their Libyan counterparts:
The (Human Rights Watch) report indicates that Syria's opposition, like the NATO-backed rebels in Libya, are lawless, unprincipled, sectarian, extremists. They are far from "democracy activists" or "unarmed, helpless civilians," and very far from being "victims" of a disproportionate use of force... [More from LandDestroyer]
Meanwhile Middle East Report Online addresses at least part of yours truly's longstanding theory that the Syrian destabilization op currently in progress, although apparently no longer MSM newsworthy in the absence of anti-Syrian-government war porn, has A LOT to do with the Kurds. It doesn't address my hypothesis that the Kurds will attempt a breakaway state on the Iraq/Iran border, steal oil, and transit it to Kirkuk, across Iraq and Syria, meaning Syria's Assad needed to be removed or 'put on notice' regarding any attempt to impede the purloined oil, but there's a lot of detail in this article that points towards that possibility.
Denise Natali lays out all the "Syrian Kurdish Cards," @ MERO.
