Why is Trump’s withdrawal from Syria getting so much criticism from the media and Congress?

President Trump’s announced withdrawal of U.S. troops from the Kurdish-controlled part of Syria has brought a wave of criticism from the mainstream media and members of Congress. One rare voice of support for the withdrawal came from Ron Paul, who wrote an article entitled “Washington is Wrong Once Again – Kurds Join Assad to Defend Syria.”

Dr. Paul wrote: When President Trump Tweeted last week that “it is time for us to get out of these ridiculous endless wars,” adding that the US would be withdrawing from Syria, Washington went into a panic. Suddenly Republicans, Democrats, the media, the think tanks, and the war industry all discovered and quickly became experts on “the Kurds,” who we were told were an “ally” being sent to their slaughter by an ignorant President Trump.

But it was all just another bipartisan ploy to keep the “forever war” gravy train rolling through the Beltway. (end quote)

While Paul’s position to remove the troops from Syria is sensible and correct, his conclusion about why the U.S. has been supporting the Kurds in Syria misses the mark. “The military-industrial-Congressional-media complex” is not the reason the U.S. has helped the Kurdish minority seize and occupy nearly one-third of Syria. Likewise, the media criticism for Trump’s withdrawal is not because of the loss of a “cash cow” in Kurdistan.

The real reason why the U.S. has helped the Kurds take a very large part of Syria (from the Euphrates River to Iraq) is because this is the Zionist (i.e. Israeli) strategy for the dismantling of Syria. The Kurds have been allies of Israel since the 1960s, if not longer, as the attached photos document.

The war in Syria was fomented and fueled by Israeli terrorists with support from the U.S., Saudi Arabia, Turkey, and others. The goal was to destroy the power of the central government and fragment the nation into ethnic enclaves, like a Kurdish region in the northeast quarter of the country.

Israel provided weapons and terrorist leadership for the factions it controlled, like ISIS. Using terrorism to fragment nations has been an Israeli tactic used in Palestine, Lebanon, and Iraq. It was used in Syria for the same purpose. The Kurds went along with it and were used to fight ISIS and seize a very big chunk of Syria, which also happened to be the oil-rich section of the country.

Trump’s planned withdrawal from Kurdish-occupied Syria puts this Israeli plan for a separate Kurdish enclave in danger because the Kurds now need help from the Assad government against their arch-enemy Recep Erdogan and the Turkish forces and their Syrian mercenaries.

The War on Terror agenda is an Israeli plan to rule the Middle East by breaking up the Arab states into small squabbling ethnic enclaves that will lack the power to challenge Israeli hegemony in the region. To assign blame for the Kurdish plight to the “military-industrial complex” is to miss the real source of the problem.

This is the subject of my book, The War on Terror: The Plot to Rule the Middle East (2017).
