Netanyahu came to the U.S. in 2002 after 9-11. Actually, he came in September 20, 2001, if I remember correctly, and gave a speech that said, There's terrorism, but you don't fight the terrorists, you fight the governments that back the terrorists. That's the idea. So you go to war. You don't just have a kind of an anti-terrorism effort, you go to war.

And the first of those wars was Iraq, but Syria was supposed to be exactly the next war. And the timeline was this remarkable idea of seven wars in five years. According to all of the understanding that we now have from lots of insiders, from documents, from the archives, what happened was the US got bogged down in Iraq. There was the insurgency.

We didn't move onward to the next war, which was to be Syria, which was to happen already 20 years ago. But in 2011, what really brought Assad down last week started under Obama. Yes, and this is also interesting. It doesn't really matter who's president. This is long-term deep state policy. Obama ordered the CIA to overthrow Assad. So that started in 2011.

But why would Obama want to overthrow Assad? Because Israel has run American foreign policy in the Middle East for 30 years. That's how it works. We have an Israel lobby. We have this clean break strategy. We have a plan for seven wars in five years. And what's interesting is they actually kind of carry out this madness. They don't explain any of it to the American people. They don't tell anybody.

But you can watch step by step. We've had six of those seven wars. The only one that hasn't happened is Iran. And if you watch every day now, the MSM, the mainstream media is pushing for U.S. war with Iran. Netanyahu is pushing for war with Iran. They're really trying to get this started to make seven out of seven. But Obama, you know, for no reason.

particular reason, by the way, but he launched two of these wars on the list of seven. He launched the war to bring down the Libyan government, Muammar Gaddafi, in the fall of the war started in March 2011. And he and Hillary Clinton, his secretary of state, said Assad must go. in the spring of 2011. I remember scratching my head at the time saying, oh, that's interesting.

How are they going to do that? Syria was a normal functioning country at the time, despite whatever you read, whatever propaganda is said, Syria was a normal functioning country. I recently dredged out a report by

the International Monetary Fund on Syria in 2009 that praised the Syrian government for its reforms and its rapid economic growth and looked forward to continued years of economic development. In other words, it was not this. wasteland or this battlefield. It was an actual normal country. Was it a threat to the United States?
