Amnesty International Propaganda Targets Russia & Syria

Shameless propaganda stunt by US State Department run, Soros-funded front Amenesty International.
by Tony Cartalucci

April 13, 2012 - The Amnesty International "infographic" titled, "Shocking Facts About Who’s Arming Human Rights Abusers," portraying Russia's arming of Syria as "fueling the most bloodshed" is not "shocking" at all when one realizes the disingenuous human rights advocacy organization is run by US State Department officials and is funded by convicted criminal George Soros' Open Society Institute (annual report page 8) as well as the UK Department for International Development (page 8), the European Commission, and other corporate-funded foundations. The "infographic," in this context, clearly becomes a case of shameless, politically motivated propaganda using the Amnesty International "brand" to give it the legitimacy its increasingly distrusted sponsors lack.






Image: Amnesty International's "infographic" aimed at the lowest possible intellectual denominator in their target audience. While Syria might be the biggest enemy of the US currently, it is by no means the greatest human rights violator - Ugandan "president-for-life" Museveni displaces entire populations of tens of thousands of people in single US-British land grabs and has led regional military campaigns that have killed millions - yet he receivesmillions in military aid and arms from the West. Such hypocrisy reveals Amnesty International as the politically-motivated front it ultimately is. (click here to enlarge)

....


The graphic is so inaccurate, so full of such overt, easily refuted lies, it must be aimed at the most ignorant, impressionable members of Western society. It also contains glaring inexplicable hypocrisy. For instance, while Russia defends its arming of Syria's government by citing documented evidence that the unrest is being fomented by foreign-funded, well armed terrorists committing a multitude of atrocities, even according to Human Rights Watch, Amnesty International's sister organization, what imaginable excuse could France, Germany, the US, or the UK have for arming Syria, Bahrain, Yemen, or Libya past or present - especially when these same nations have justified the total summation of their foreign meddling and military interventionism with acting upon "humanitarian concerns?"

The next glaring deception comes from Amnesty International's "Human Cost" tally. Amnesty cites themselves as the source for the tallies, admitting that they have no accurate information regarding Libya or whether or not the tally includes the thousands upon thousands killed in NATO's onslaught or during the genocidal orgy carried out by NATO-armed and backed Libyan Islamic Fighting Group (LIFG) terrorists. It should be noted that NATO's Libyan legion of terror is still to this day carrying out systematic atrocities (also covered here) in both Libya,and across the Arab World.

One assumes that Amnesty International's tally for Syria comes either from the UN's already discredited tally, or Amnesty International's own tally taken from London-based foreign-funded NGO's working out of the British Foreign Ministry's office who are basing their tallies on hearsay and overt fabrications.

The UN number was likewise based on hearsay, taken from opposition members in Geneva and compiled by Fortune 500 think-tank director, Karen Koning AbuZayd. AbuZayd sits on theWashington D.C. based Middle East Policy Council, along side current and former associates of Exxon, the US military, the CIA, the Saudi Binladin Group, the US-Qatari Business Counciland both former and current members of the US government. Clearly, by representing the very interests who have been trying to reorder the Arab World for their own convenience for decades, AbuZayd's involvement compromises the entire UN report as well as the credibility of the UN itself.



Image: Amnesty International using the same "activism 2.0" gags employed by their junior partners at Invisible Children, the perpetrators of the Kony 2012 scam. Note the "Donate Now: Fight bad guys with every dollar," and how like Invisible Children, Amnesty addresses its audience as if they are children - a tried and true method employed by propagandists. Ironically, Amnesty and Invisible Children also both so happen to cultivate a myriad of connections with the US State Department and corporate interests.

....

But perhaps what is most offensive of all, is not the intelligence-insulting lies told by Amnesty International, but rather the information they failed to include in their "infographic." This includes information like the 60-billion dollar arms deal the US signed with notorious human rights abuser Saudi Arabia - the largest arms deal in US history - and the billions upon endless billions of dollars sent to the Israeli government to maintain its belligerent regional posture as well as maintain their nation-sized concentration camp, sometimes called "Palestine."

At best, the only difference between Russia's arming the legitimate government of Syria, and the US arming Libyan terrorists, Saudi despots, and Israeli megalomaniacs is clever Western propaganda used to mischaracterize each instance, justifying it when it suits the West, and demonizing it when arms dealing works against them. At worst, the difference is in fact that Russia is arming standing governments while the US and its NATO-Arab League partners are veritably arming notorious terrorist organizations, many listed on both British and US government lists of "foreign terrorist organizations." This includes the Iraqi-Iranian Mujahideen-e-Khalq (MEK), the aforementioned LIFG, and Baluchi terrorists on the Iranian-Pakistani border.

The purpose of this arming of terrorists is to do exactly what Amnesty International accuses Russia of doing, fueling bloodshed. In fact, as the West demanded Syria's President Bashar al-Assad to withdraw troops from Syrian cities according to a UN brokered "peace plan," the West's proxy rebels openly denounced the deal and promised to fight on. Instead of berating the rebels, the West along with their Arab League partners pledged cash and weapons to the rebels encouraging them to flaunt the "peace deal" and indeed perpetuate the bloodshed.

And this is only the latest in a long series of politically-motivated stunts pulled by Amnesty International specifically targeting both Russia and Syria. Whatever credibility Amnesty International might have had left after its participation in the destruction of Libya and indeed its own "fueling of bloodshed" in North Africa, it has completely buried under the battlefields of Syria.

Denuncian a la AIEA por estar involucrada en los asesinatos de científicos iraníes

                         


(Hispantv) “La Agencia Internacional de Energía Atómica (AIEA) está involucrada en el asesinato selectivo de científicos iraníes”, ha denunciado este jueves el expresidente de la Agencia de Energía Atómica Árabe (AEAA), Mahmud Barakat

“Esta es una política que se repite constantemente. La AIEA está involucrada en el asesinato de los científicos nucleares iraníes, ya que es la única entidad que posee informaciones precisas y confidenciales en este sentido”, agregó Barakat.

En una entrevista concedida a Nile TV, Barakat ha señalado que si “Irán no da información a la agencia se crea un escándalo, y acusan a Irán de no ser transparente al respecto, y si da información, se realizan los asesinatos selectivos”, informa IRIB.

Asimismo, el político explicó que el programa nuclear de Irán con fines pacíficos pretende satisfacer las demandas internas del país; asimismo, el uso de la energía atómica es una necesidad permanente para un país que ha gastado mil millones de dólares en la construcción de instalaciones nucleares.

Barakat criticó el doble rasero de Washington sobre el programa pacífico nuclear de Irán, agregando que Estados Unidos y el régimen israelí, ellos si poseen un sinnúmero de armas nucleares.

Teherán sostiene que como miembro de la AIEA y país signatario del Tratado de No Proliferación Nuclear (TNP), tiene el derecho de utilizar la tecnología nuclear para usos pacíficos como la generación de electricidad e investigación médica.

Mientras tanto, el régimen israelí, poseedor de más de 200 ojivas atómicas, no permite que la AIEA inspeccione o supervise su controvertido programa nuclear, amén de hacer oídos sordos a la demanda de adherirse al TNP.

El 11 de enero del año en curso, el catedrático iraní, Mostafa Ahmadi Roshan, fue asesinado en Teherán, la capital de Irán, tras explotar la bomba lapa colocada en su coche.

Ahmadi Roshan, es el cuarto científico iraní, vinculado con el programa nuclear pacífico iraní que ha sido asesinado durante los últimos dos años. Dariush Rezainejad (julio de 2011), Masud Ali Mohammadi (enero de 2010) y Mayid Shahriari (noviembre de 2010) perdieron la vida en atentados similares, mientras que Fereydun Abasi (noviembre de 2010) sufrió heridas.

La gran mentira

Igual que no había armas de destrucción masiva en Irak, y aún así se inventaron informes y fotos que enseñaron en la sede de la ONU, en Iran no hay nada parecido a un programa nuclear militar secreto y con ánimos de matar a americanos.
Simplemente no existe. Igual que no había armas en Irak.
En Irak mintieron los inspectores y se manipuló la información.
En Iran se está haciendo lo mismo con organismos como la AIEA. Las mentiras se publican, pero la prensa calla la verdad.

'Sketchy IAEA report sets stage for war'

According to a 2009 Wikileaks cable, IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano asserted that "he was solidly in the US court on every key strategic decision, from high-level personnel appointments to the handling of Iran's alleged nuclear weapons program."

A former International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) director has spoken out against the agency's recent report on Iran's nuclear program, saying he does not want to see another war waged based on “recycled, discredited data.”

“In the 24-page document, intended for a restricted distribution but widely available on the Internet, all but three of the items that were offered as proof of a possible nuclear-arms program are either undated or refer to events before 2004,” Robert Kelley wrote in an article titled “Nuclear Arms Charge against Iran Is No Slam Dunk” on the Bloomberg website on Wednesday.

Of the remaining three, he added, two are attributed only to two member states, “so the sourcing is impossible to evaluate.”

Kelley said the remaining allegation was in fact a revival of a two-page document, “purporting to come from Iran,” which the IAEA received in 2009.

“Mohamed ElBaradei, who was then the agency's director general, rejected the information because there was no chain of custody for the paper, no clear source, document markings, date of issue or anything else that could establish its authenticity. What's more, the document contained style errors, suggesting the author was not a native Farsi speaker. It appeared to have been typed using Arabic, rather than a Farsi, word-processing program.”

The IAEA released its latest report on Tehran's nuclear program on November 8, claiming that Iran has been engaged in activities related to developing nuclear weapons before 2003, which “may still be ongoing.”

Iran dismissed the report as "unbalanced, unprofessional and prepared with political motivation and under political pressure mostly by the United States.”

Having already lobbied for the imposition of four rounds of UN Security Council sanctions against Iran, the US and its allies have since used the recent IAEA report to slap even stricter unilateral sanctions on the Islamic Republic.

On New Year's Eve, US President Barack Obama signed into law fresh economic sanctions against Iran's Central Bank in an apparent bid to punish foreign companies and banks that do business with the Iranian financial institution.

The European Union followed suit with its foreign policy Chief Catherine Ashton threatening Tehran with continuing sanctions. “I expect Iran will realize that we will continue with sanctions. EU members are discussing further sanctions right now,” she said.

The EU foreign ministers are expected to hold a meeting later this month on January 23 to discuss proposed embargo on Iran's oil exports.

The IAEA report has more alarmingly led to calls from various US and Israeli corners for a military strike against Iran.

On December 20, US Defense Secretary Leon Panetta claimed that Iran was one year away from building an atomic weapon, threatening that Washington will take every step “necessary” to stop Tehran's nuclear program.

Less than a week later, Chairman of the US Joint Chiefs of Staff General Martin Dempsey said the US military is ready to launch a military strike against Iran, if occasion necessitates.

With the upcoming US presidential election, the Republican candidates have similarly heightened the anti-Iran rhetoric, in an apparent bid to win Zionist votes.

Meanwhile, Israeli officials have also recently stepped up their war rhetoric against Iran. On November 21, Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned the "time has come" to deal with Iran. Israeli President Shimon Peres also threatened on November 6 that an attack against Iran is becoming "more and more likely."

The former IAEA director said he is “speaking up” about the flawed IAEA report, “because, as a member of the IAEA's Iraq Action Team in 2003, I learned firsthand how withholding the facts can lead to bloodshed.”

“Having known the details then, though I was not allowed to speak, I feel a certain shared responsibility for the war that killed more than 4,000 Americans and more than 100,000 Iraqis. A private citizen today, I hope to help ensure the facts are clear before the US takes further steps that could lead, intentionally or otherwise, to a new conflagration, this time in Iran,” he said.
