Maybe why Saad Hariri resigned?

Interestingly, Wesley Clark was named in the Paradise Papers, I thought I recognized his name but it just clicked when I saw this.. not sure what to make of it. Apparently he was director of an online gambling company with offshore subsidiaries.

He was named, but they also say he did nothing wrong.

Clark, who was identified in a New Jersey government report as a member of Amaya’s corporate governance committee overseeing confidentiality and trading policy as of December 2014, has not been accused of wrongdoing.

The Jews on Lebanon’s border have been itching for another massacre of their Christian and Muslim neighbors. If the Saudis openly assist them in their murderous endeavor it looks like the cover will finally be blown on their genealogical heritage.

The Middle East is the home of Islamic civilization and divided into three major fractions, which have great historical pasts:

• osman and it’s successor turkey
• Persian aka Iran
• Arabic aka Saudi Arabia and UAE

So all of them dream of reviving the lost empires.

This three regional powers are involved in the Syrian civil war and Iran and Saudi Arabia are fighting a proxy war in Yemen. Lebanon is an Ally for Iran and common enemy of Israel (think of Hezbollah) and Saudi Arabia.

In a global scale we have as major powers Russia and USA on different sides, so this is going to be a very interesting and ugly escalation, which will shape the geopolitical landscape.

I’m personally more focused on the geopolitical landscape, but you guys may have an idea that’s happening behind the scenes. I’m curious to hear your take on the situation.

Osman....like Tim Osman?

Thanks, I mixed up the German word for the Ottoman Empire with the English. Fixed it!

Osman was the founder of the Ottoman dynasty!

Not judging or condescending here, just trying to follow your logic. But.

You’re not even close. Are these three from memory or did you read an article, post or book that categorizes it this way?

What we call the Middle East today is made up from so many warring tribes, attempting to say the power is being pushed between 3 major factions is what got us into this mess after WW2.

You have families and blood line issues, you have Sunni and Shi’a. Don’t forget the Kurds, Turks or Armenians.

There are so many major factions there, all they need is a Big Brother country to provide arms and military type materiel and they will massacre their opposing groups.

These major categories Of the Islamic worlds are well established, Especially from Samuel Huntington, a Havard professor, who wrote a influential book on this topic (Clash of civilizations - remaking if the world order)

Of course, you divided these groups into smaller ones, but all these smaller groups can be allocated to the major groups and will feel like they belong due to common history, shared customs and similar language.

Sadly, once again, Harvard has it wrong.

Just labeling millions of people from Egypt to Yemen, basically all of these regions as Arabic, Persian or Ottoman/Osman/Turks is not only culturally inaccurate but also insensitive.

How would you classify Somalis since they were in the original article? How about Afghanis?

I only caution you on global generalizations and motivators.

OP said major categories. There are also minor categories and a bunch of ways to balkanize the major categories (which seems to be what's been going on.)

Competitors in oil supply for demand and logistics pipelines.

It's all a rich man's pissing match.

Israel does the invading it will never be invaded...

They got hurt badly during their last attempt to rape & pillage at will.

Somalia is on the menu now too.

Oman and the various Emirates are also on the list. OIL reserves.

And Trump is going along with it all praising the fucking Saudis.

So is this how WW3 begins? Or am I reaching too far?

Well, if true then I bet it'll be like WWII and US will stand the same position of not participating into the war. Then, incredibly, another Pearl Harbor will happen (or another 9/11) and voila, they'll join the war.

We’re going to take out 7 countries in 5 years: Iraq, Syria, Somalia, Libya, Sudan, Iran and Yemen.

Well they sure as he'll fucked up their five year goal.

They figured we'd just roll over Iraq and most of our country would support em.

I'm so confused by your last statement. A joint invasion OF Israel AND Saudi, and the US is gonna provide air support for the invasions of 2 of our allies?

That's some absolute nonsense.

Prediction: the first thing they go for, or build a semi-permanent base at are the Baalbek stones.

It's always about the antiquities with these people. Did you know Saddam was constructing an Annunaki exhibit in Iraq, just prior to the invasion.

Then the invasion occurs and the FIRST thing the "rioters" go for is the museum. Now they don't just take the copies out on display, no they blow the hinges off the vault and take the real stuff...

Just watch.

That's actually worthy of a post; well calculated prediction.

Does anyone know if these 7 counties have Rothchild controlled banks? It has something to do with their currencies not being part of the centralized banking system or something

This is the textbook r/conspiracy response. All invasions/ destabilizations are due to the Rothschild family.

Ironically on r/conspiracy critical thinking is subdued by all theories blaming the same few groups over an over.

Israel Rothschilds Clinton’s CIA Etc.

I think this sub is controlled to keep the focus on these same groups over and over to make the place look dumb, and deflect true discussion and investigation into real culprits.

I understand your response. However as I see it it is still most logical motivation. And I'm not saying the Roth child's etc are to blame. I just think money is to blame. One world government? No, Mr robot was right, we are already part of the one world corporation. There is a board of directors, I don't know who they are, but you can bet that money and the desire to abuse power are at the root of almost all the decisions being made in this corporation.

this is textbook "Im a shill" response. Instead of furthering a discussion and looking into a possible link, you attack an entire subreddit and their ability for critical thinking ?

In the year of 2000 there were eight countries without a Rothschild owned or controlled Central Bank:

Afghanistan Iraq Sudan Libya Cuba North Korea Iran Syria

Coincidence ??????

Cuba we’ve opened relations and visitation back up with, along with trade. Moving things in a positive direction with them yet no Rothschild bank. Some of the most isolated/ unstable countries also lack an international banking structure, is it really that shocking. Yes, it is a coincidence. But you can’t see that because you’ve been brainwashed only to be able to see that one angle.

some people are playing the game "risk" in real time...

if only we knew was rolling the dice....
