When the Obama Administration is criticizing Iran about Syria, it’s usually to do with putative weapons shipments to the Assad government, and usually is followed with griping about Iraq constantly searching Iranian planes and not finding those weapons.
The latest allegation takes the cake though, as the Treasury Department is accusing Iran of “assisting al-Qaeda” in sending jihadist fighters to Syria to attack the Assad government.
The allegation seems to center around a single “facilitator” who purportedly lives along the Iran-Afghan border and has provided passports to al-Qaeda recruits, with the assumption that they’re being used to flock to Syria, and with the added assumption that Iran is letting them do so.
That the Assad government is literally Iran’s closest ally on the planet and that al-Qaeda is openly hostile to Iran’s Shi’ite government are both unchanged, and of course that means Iran backing al-Qaeda against Syria is literally the last thing they’d do. The Treasury Department didn’t reconcile that fact with anything, but rather just stated the allegation, like so many others, as a matter of course.
During Iraq war it was Saddam Hussein who not only had a atomic bomb, whom was behind the nine eleven but he also was arming Talibans and all other Saudis-Wahhabis terrorists groups from Afghanistan to Yemen to Yugoslavia to Libya and is still him who supports the Syrian terrorists with American made weapons which are sold to Saudis, it is still him who trains the Neo Sunni terrorists in Jordan, is still him who dictates to Turkish government what to do about Al-Quaeda traveling freely in and out of Turkish border into Syria, oh yehhhh, the Middle East problem is because and about Saddam Hussein, America or EU have nothing to do with it, they just get their order from Israel. Long from the truth, sarcastically said…,yes.
Since when is the US Treasury issuing allegations? The Treasury has intel? WTF?!? The Obama regime is one confused, if not convoluted, circle jerk if ever there was one.
I noticed that the Daily Star article this digest is referencing never identifies the offending Treasury spokesman.
Anonymous Treasury spokesperson doesn't want it's name associated with such a staggeringly asisine remark. You just can't fix stupid.
“The kettle calling the pot black.” What a bunch of hypocrites!
While this US Treas "comment" on Iran might be a mistake or incorrectly reported, it is also a hallmark of a propaganda war to tell Big Lies constantly, no matter how absurd. The target population for such lies are not historians or Middle Eastern analysts, but regular people (Americans) who can barely tell you where the Middle East actually is. So absurd lies will be issued simply to tarnish Iran's reputation amongst the ignorant.
The idea is that listeners/readers will simply recall "Iran bad" and not reflect on the obvious contradictions embedded within the Big Lie.
It is all much more simple then it looks. It is called incompetence. People hired to high positions are loud mouthed, vulgar, and ignorant. They are ready to shout slogans as soon as they are created, and on occassion mix up their sloganeering, as they have no clue what is really going on, nor do they care. Proudly they "create" reality, and imagine that the whole world is standing in attention and hanging onto every their word.
What do you mean ?inexplicably"? It is expected. The Satanic oligarchy must conflate Syria, Iran, Russia, and any other sovereign nation that won't willing submit to the communo-fascist NWO.
That is just rich, seeing as how Iran is fighting no less than two Al Qaeda "afilliates" the MKO and Jundullah. Also hilarious seeing that Prince Bandar of the House of Saud is pretty much openly known as teh godfather of Al Qaeda in Syria, but he's only following his orders from Foggy Bottom.

I guess this puts John McCain and Iran on the same side, doesn't it?
After 9-11 and especially after the holocaust in Iraq, all the decent people from the State Department resigned and all the moral people from the foreign service resigned. With what was left; what do you expect? There is a lot of BS being thrown around (death of Osama, Syrian government used gas, etc.), that some people do not believe. You can't fool all the people all the time.
