Jordanian Monarchy Announces Plans To Invade Syria

To be expected, I was informed by a Jordanian journalist -- who will remain unnamed for obvious reasons -- his actual comment was, "The king of Jordan doesn't go to the toilet without first ringing Washington!" It should also be remembered that this compliant, sell-out king handed the 'Dome on the Rock', possibly the second holiest site of Islam, to the Israeli's under Washington's instructions, regardless of his pathetic and feeble performance afterwards. So it becomes plain that Washington, baulked by Russia's pledge to Syria to intervene if the US intervenes, is using its obedient vassals to do its dirtywork. However, if the history of Israel's conflicts with Jordan in the past indicate anything it's that Jordan is not up to the task and furthermore the endeavour could make matters extremely problematic for the corrupt Monarch.

King Abdullah, as corrupt and pliable as they come

Just one day after [vassal] Turkey’s announcement of plans to invade Syria by implementing a “no-fly zone” or “buffer zone,” Jordan has now announced that it is considering doing the same.

According to a report by the Financial Times published on Monday, the Jordanians also plan to implement a “buffer zone” on the southern border with Syria, stretching across the provinces of Deraa and Suwayda. The “buffer zone” would most likely include the city of Deraa and, like the Turkish incarnation, a “militarized zone” to “separate the buffer area from government forces.”

While the Jordanian military would obviously be involved, the zone would largely be manned by terrorists receiving support from the United States and the West.

Despite the fact that the “buffer zone” is being given the coloration of a humanitarian effort to end the fighting, protect the Jordanian border, and provide an area for refugees to gather, the fact that the Free Syrian Army fanatics and other “anti-Assad rebels” known to civilized humans as cannibals, rapists, and murderers, is a clear signal that there is nothing humanitarian about this measure.

Indeed, a true “buffer zone” would be manned by foreign military or peacekeeping forces. Allowing jihadists – parties to the war in Syria – to man the line is a complete abrogation of even the slightest attempt at public relations. Thankfully for the Jordanians, no one in the West is paying enough attention to see through their façade.

Turkey has long been a proponent of a buffer zone in Syria, as have other NATO countries. The establishment of a buffer zone, of course, would simply be a repeat of the Libyan catastrophe, the very goal of NATO and the United States for Syria.

The Telegraph has also reported that Turkish media was briefed on the orders, suggesting that the military was preparing to send a force of about 18,000 soldiers across the border. Some reports suggested the attack could come as early as Friday. The goal would be to seize territory 60 miles across and 20 miles deep in Syria, as well as the border crossings of Aazaz and Jarablus.

Such a buffer zone would provide an even deeper Forward Operating Base inside Syria from which to launch more and more terrorists to fight against the Syrian Army both from the north and the south.

Interestingly enough, the Jordanian plan comes right on the heels of the Turkish announcement proving that either the relationship between Atlanticist goals and fortuitous coincidences is still unparalleled, alive, and well or that the announcements were carefully coordinated as part of an effort to destroy the secular government of Bashar al-Assad and weaken the resolve of the Syrian people.

Such an announcement comes on the heels of a series of victories by Assad’s forces, backed by Iranian and Hezbollah fighters, in the Southwestern front, particularly in the city of Deraa.

A buffer zone, of course, has been part of the NATO agenda against Syria since the beginning of the Western-controlled crisis in the country. Remember, it was under the guise of a humanitarian corridor or buffer zone in Libya that NATO bombing took place which ultimately led to the destruction of the Libyan government, the murder of Gaddaffi, and the subsequent expansion of chaos, anarchy, and genocide across the entire North African country.

Indeed, public discussion of the implementation of a “buffer zone” began as far back as 2012 when the Brookings Institution, in their memo “Assessing Options For Regime Change” stated

An alternative is for diplomatic efforts to focus first on how to end the violence and how to gain humanitarian access, as is being done under Annan’s leadership. This may lead to the creation of safe-havens and humanitarian corridors, which would have to be backed by limited military power. This would, of course, fall short of U.S. goals for Syria and could preserve Asad in power. From that starting point, however, it is possible that a broad coalition with the appropriate international mandate could add further coercive action to its efforts.

Opposition forces are trying to control the eastern areas (Hasaka and Der Zor), adjacent to the western Iraqi provinces (Mosul and Anbar), in addition to neighboring Turkish borders. Western countries, the Gulf states and Turkey are supporting these efforts. This hypothesis is most likely in accordance with the data from recent events, which will help prepare safe havens under international sheltering, similar to what transpired in Libya when Benghazi was chosen as the command center of the temporary government.
