Elegant Infiltration


Wikileaks is one hell of an entity, we all know and appreciate it. The latest release of documents are without doubt one of the most antiwar, anti establishment and pro humanitarian act an entity as such could possibly have done. There is a “but“ here and by looking at the index of theses documents and the summery of its statistical highlights, it causes an inevitable feeling of seeing an elegant flow of disinformation….. We all know and have seen enough evidence to know the atrocities and injustices that have occurred in the past decade, irretrievably that of one of USA’s sixteen secret service establishments or carried out by private security militia organizations a la “Xe” better known as “BlackWater”, not to mention the audacity with which the professional US military interpreted/twisted international law beyond recognition, by legalizing torture through their highest elected/appointed officials…etc.etc.etc.

Now, if we were an officer of one of the countless (sixteen) intelligence services in the US, and confronted with a phenomenon like the “Wikileaks” and after having unsuccessfully tried to discredit the owner of this organization (by claiming sexual abuse/rape or other perversions.... something that usually works in the US) then we would probably decide to at least control the flow of information or documents to him or it, since we can not stop the publishing in this time of global internet connections. It is only natural that by controlling the flow, we would actually change and manipulate the content to ones advantage or to another's disadvantage. We truly would be amateurs or incompetent civil or military servants if we could not deal with such a leak a second or third time around.

One sees in this latest leaks, names and numbers…. Numbers that can “NOT” possibly be true or verified. Until now all statistical researches regarding Iraqi casualties were around 1,000,000 .. plus minus 10,000, but now they edited it down to 10% that number into 109,000, and to cut and torpedo our doubts, they immediately claim and take blame for over 65% innocent civilian share of that number. The next issue is shifting the blame for tortures in Iraq by putting it mainly and solely upon the Iraqi security services like the police, with themselves having only looked away and tolerated the whole show. Not to mention the names issued……
Prior to this leak, we had an Afghanistan leak and there we saw some obscure names of the Afghan versions of Jim,Jack and Bob…. Needless to say, non were ever actually identified officially, but always possible that a few dozen Jims or Jacks and Bobs were picked up and never seen again. The 300 or so names issued here on Iraq are no different, they are so common that every one yet no one could ever be implicated, or worse the names could be authentic but actually leaked to endanger those who would not collaborate….Finally no report would be final if there is no mention of Iran's naughtiness in the region, so the obligatory rhetoric of “Iran sending weapons to this and that”….

I guess mixing truth and lies makes doubting/believing the whole thing more difficult, but be very careful in believing/rejecting everything you read, no matter who publishes it.

The Sanctions

Mr. M. Sahimi wrote "When she was running for president in 2008, Hillary Rodham Clinton threatened to obliterate Iran if it attacked Israel. Her opponent, Barack Obama, responded that Clinton’s threat was "too much like Bush" Four years later Iran has not attacked Israel (and will not do so, unless attacked by Israel first), but President Obama is actually carrying out the threat that his current secretary of state made in 2008, waging an undeclared war on Iran and Iranians. The U.S. and Israel have launched cyber attacks, assassinated Iranian nuclear scientists , and supported armed ethnic groups that carry out terrorist operations inside Iran, killing innocent people. In addition, Israel has been active in the  Kurdistan region of Iraq and in the Republic of Azerbaijan , encouraging and supporting small separatist movements among Iranian ethnic groups, such as the Kurds and Azeris. But the most devastating part of the undeclared war on Iran is the tough econ

Chaldoran 1514 AD

Image
It was late summer in the year 1514, and Iran had a new dynasty in power(The Safavid 1501-1722). The distinctive difference here was the fact that the Safavids were the first "Shia" dynasty that used all methods in the book to convert all Iranians into a homogeneous religion, since the "Iranshahr" factor (which was the name that Iranians used for their country) did not seem enough to mobilize a sense of national unity to refute new national threats, mainly the Afghans and the Turks. The Safavid used issues like the marriage of "BiBi-Shahrbanu" (sister of the last Sassanid King) with "Imam Hussain" and the fact that the fourth Shia "Imam Zein-Ol-Abedin" had not only prophet blood, but also Iranian Royal blood, which stimulated nationalistic feelings of even the most fanatic Sunni Iranians to convert. Furthermore the most convincing argument, was the sword and the famous sentence attributed to the founder of this dynasty was "Either

Wikihoax on Iran

Image
Here are some of the supposed leaks on Iran, mixed with some true ones concerning other countries and their heads of states or controversial ministers (of course harmless ones), making it a bit problematic and that much harder for consumers of such information to "not" believe. Always remember,the most talked about issue amongst all heads of states without exception is and has been the mother of all conflicts (namely the Israeli & Palestinian conflict). Yet there is not a single word issued from anywhere or anyone, not even sworn enemies of one or the other states.... If that did not give you a reason to doubt then nothing else shall. When something smells like a fish, swims like a fish, then it must be a fish.This Wikileaks business has been the target of an article by this site (Here) So needless to emphasize anymore about disbelieving the authenticity of the content of wikileaks concerning Iran. Nonetheless, here are the Iran related ones. US Embassy Ottawa (2008) .. T
