Official PA daily: US behind civil war in Syria and supports the killings

Sep 1, 2013 12:28 pm By Robert Spencer

The U.S. is behind it all? What about the Zionists? Serious slacking from the Palestinian Authority: “PA daily: US behind civil war in Syria and supports the killings,” by Itamar Marcus and Nan Jacques Zilberdik for Palestinian Media Watch, September 1:

Since the beginning of what is called the “˜Arab Spring”, the official Palestinian Authority daily has been publishing opinion pieces accusing the US and Israel of being behind the civil wars in the Middle East in order to divide and weaken Arab states and strengthen American power. The deaths in the Arab world, including those in Syria following the chemical attack, are presented as actions in line with US policy. The official PA daily wrote today:

“Events of mass killings do not upset [America] because they themselves have used killing as a means and a strategy to attain global domination”¦ This is a tyranny and an effort whose goal is to divide every country”¦ Americans aspire to topple the nation states that appeared in the Arab world after WWII.”

The threatened US airstrike is likewise being presented as a continuation of the American policy whose goal is, according to the PA daily, “to re-divide the Arab people’s nations according to ethnic groups, religion and ethnicity…” Worse yet, the US is being presented by the PA daily as a bloodthirsty imperialist country seeking the death of Arab civilians:

“There is nothing in international relations more offensive or painful than the American invasion and the Americans” barbaric behavior”¦ The Americans knew that Assad was destroying Syria and this is what they had hoped for, so they worked to have the massacres and destruction continue.”

The PA daily”s demonization of the US has been a constant theme for some time. Former editor-in-chief of the official PA daily Hafez Barghouti wrote a few months ago:

“What is happening in Syria is that it is being exhausted, so that its characteristics as a state disappear, until there is an appropriate political party, a friend and outgrowth of the Americans, to take over the government.”

A regular columnist in the same daily wrote about the turmoil in Egypt:

“What is happening now in Cairo is a warning [sign] for the capabilities of the forces waiting to destabilize Egyptian society, erase its national identity, and turn large sectors of society against the state, as part of a decision that seems similar to the US Intelligence’s decision to mobilize tens of thousands of Iranians in the streets of Tehran in order to overthrow Muhammad Mosaddeq’s government in the early 1950s.”

The turmoil and sectarian unrest in Iraq today is being presented as something the US intended for Iraq and now is imposing on Syria:

“After the destruction of Iraq and the actions to divide it, this attempt is now repeating itself in Syria.”

This demonization of the US by the official PA daily continues unabated following the announcement last week that the US has pledged an additional $148 million to the PA”s general budget. It should be noted that the writers in the PA daily are paid their salaries from this same budget that the US is funding.

The following are longer excerpts of these and additional accusations from articles in the official PA daily, claiming that the US and Israel conspire to divide and harm Arab countries and rule over them. In addition, the accusation that the US was behind the attacks on the World Trade Center on 9/11, is repeated:

America uses “killing as a strategy to attain global domination”

Article by Adli Sadeq, PLO Ambassador to India and regular columnist for the official PA daily:

“We do not and will not support an American bombing of Syria… There is no logic in agreeing that Americans are entitled to appoint themselves as those responsible for justice… Americans have a well-defined role that they are devoted to: To obstruct justice, to provide a base for oppression, and to support tyranny, when doing so is in their interest. Events of mass killings do not upset them because they themselves have used killing as a means and a strategy to attain global domination…

The most severe aspect of blatant American interference in the Syrian conflagration is their hijacking an inevitable achievement – freedom and the sweeping away of tyranny – and claiming credit for it themselves, as if they are responsible for fulfilling the hopes of nations … This is a tyranny and an effort whose goal is to divide every country… Americans aspire to topple the nation states that appeared in the Arab world after WWII.”
[Al-Hayat Al-Jadida, Sept. 1, 2013]…
