“Peres” wrote a book about it, Americans expounded their vision,
and “Rice” found it now in a state of gestation.
Conflict for a new or greater “Middle East Project” is over oil, and the objective of Greater Lebanon and Greater Jordan is the settlement of Palestinians.
In accordance with many strategic researches and many links with highly-experienced contacts in the United States of America, the secrets of the American project for a new Middle East were revealed, by which geographic and demographic area of the old Middle East is being reformulated (Sykes-Picot) in line with the interests of the United States of America for ten lean years, and with which the countries of the Middle East, including the Arab states go through disputes, conflicts and differences which lead at the end to federalism, ethnic and sectarian cantons divided on regional states (Israel) with powerful influence of such mini small, scattered sub-States.
-Strategic Research has shown also that (China) and (United States of America) both need 70% (Seventy %) of the Middle East oil after ten to fifteen years from now.
-Consequently, the struggle for a new larger Middle East will extend to reach the western border of China (The Smaller Giant) in their dispute over oil in the project named truly ... (Greater Middle East) to include countries of the Middle East and the Near East, both in the cosmic map of the world.
-The emergence of Iran (as a Major Regional State), influential and challenging to the Greater Middle East Regional Project, thereby hindering and encountering the implementation of this American project, where the United States cannot stand against or even occupy Iran's for many considerations including geography, population and the escalating Iranian military arsenal in addition to the relative failure of American involvement in the Iraqi quagmire. Any military strike against Iran would lead to a sharp reaction and retaliation which would negatively affect the oil industry (production, transport and consumption) from the Caspian Sea to the Red Sea due to the central position of Iran geographically and politically in the Middle East.
-Therefore, for the reasons mentioned hereinabove, America preferred to strike Iran's allies, which led to aggression (sixth war) against Lebanon, with American support and motivation, Israeli means, and fitted with an Arab cover. The goal is to eliminate Hezbollah and curb and isolate Syria and thus besiege Iran later on, and finally to end the Palestinian resistance, followed by the resettlement of Palestinians and the normalization of Arabs. However, the real reason for this aggression is that UN Resolution no. 1559 reached a standstill.The other reason is Iran's refusal to negotiate with the United States in regard with Iraq.
-It is the first precedent in the history of Israel that America asks Israel not to accept the suspension of fire, and urges Israel's continued aggression in spite of the faltering Israeli forces and their failure in achieving the objectives of this American aggression. It is the first in the history of previous Arab-Israeli war, that Israeli air force and ground forces, including armor, fail in wounding Lebanese national resistance or crushing them despite the absence of air cover and armor to these small resistance, small in equipment but strong in faith. It is the first time in the history of Israel that Israeli National Security is threatened in depth, to be attacked by rocket shelling of Hezbollah in most towns, settlements and laboratories as well as marine forces, to be bombed in the Mediterranean shores of Lebanon. Really, the Israeli State has been insulted together with its coward army and people. It is time to the Arab States and peoples, by the study of this guerrilla war, which showed us that Israel and America and those behind them could be crushed and defeated. For the first time, the Arabs may be honored and the legend of Israeli power and behind it America as well as the credibility of the United Nations could fall. The Lebanese resistance proved, in its turn, to be a social, military, political and unique resistance.
-“Condoleezza Rice” has disclosed for the first time about the project of a new Middle East unlike the old one. It is the war of terrorism of both globalization and Americanization, which gave the green light to Israel to launch immoral assault against Lebanon according to the policy of scorched earth, a deliberate and systematic destruction of the land and people under the complicity of the United Nations, and under the shadow of American-Zionist (John Bolton). Unfortunately, the involvement of the United Nations representative (Tidlarsen), which was the godfather of Oslo and the Quartet Treaty, as well as the peace project which was lamented by the Secretary General of the Arab League (Amr Moussa). We should not ignore or deny the Arab role in the coverage of the Israeli aggression on Lebanon and the contribution of some Arab countries. Rome conference has been convened and failed, and dropped the masks of conspirators and misleaders from the conferees. Unfortunately, we can see the inability of the Arabs in international negotiations, as they yielded to impartial mediator (America), which handed them over to the rival enemy (Israel).
-As regards Iran, it has sent an international warning to run war if aggression is extended horizontally into a war against Syria. In contrast, as per the statement of Minister of Information, Syria threatened to enter the war by all means if Israel sought to fight a wild war to pass from the red geographical line of Lebanese forces, or if it is struck by Israeli air and, finally, whether Israel was able to defeat Hezbollah. which does not seem possible until now, in addition to that it is to prevent the implementation of any international resolution providing for the deployment of NATO forces or multinational forces on the Lebanese territory or its border with Syria.
-All I hope is that Arabs in their international negotiations do not miss, but invest this victory over Israel, and to turn from the concept of surrender to the concept of resistance and then to an advanced notion in the culture of victory?!!! The victory of the resistance is undoubtedly a victory for the Arab and Islamic nation in all of the ongoing Arab-Israeli conflict, a conflict over land, water, oil, which is also a conflict over existence and border altogether.
•To return to the very beginning, I recall what was published in the (Cham Press): a translation by Dr. Ahmed Al-Issa of his article (Limits of blood and the new Middle East) in the Journal of the American Armed Forces and published by the American officer (Ralph Peters). This new American project of the new Middle East, along with the abolition of the current limits in favor of new ethnic and sectarian ones. The project is based upon the partition, segmentation and the placement of some current states which grow for definite objectives and turn into new sub-States.
-“Ralph Peters” considers Middle East Conflicts and the recurrent tension in the region as a result of (logical) major imbalance in the current arbitrary boundaries set by, as he put it (Utilitarian Europeans). Based on the premise that (international border could not be fully fair). But the size of the gross injustice that prevailed determines the difference between what he calls "freedom and oppression, tolerance and atrocity, and the legitimacy of terrorism or war and peace." It is alleged that "unfair borders in the Middle East generate turbulent region more than it can bear." It is true that the Middle East suffers from multiple problems, such as cultural stagnation and social injustice, religious extremism, but the key to understanding the great failures in the region, he says, is not Islam but the border between the states of the region about which any discussion is still prohibited.
-While “Ralph Peters” acknowledges that the ethnic and religious groups in the Middle East practiced mixing coexistence and intermarriage, but we have to redraw the boundaries in order to be fair with the existing ethnic groups. A long list of such groups is mentioned from the perspective of ethnic and religious or sectarian classification. He recognizes that the subject matter addressed herein consists of "Enormous manmade deformations – deformations distortions that will not stop of generating hatred and violence unless corrected". Peters recalled those who do not want to rearrange the border as a kind of "thinking of impossible" reminding "ethnic cleansing" which prevailed since five thousand years for a return to the so-called "blood borders". Peters believes that the continuing war between the Arabs and Israel is not a struggle for existence, but is otherwise on the border and that the region will continue to suffer as long as the borders are in turmoil and infinite trouble.
-For these reasons, and for a new Middle East, Peters submits a new American roadmap which abolishes the existing borders and divides States, shifting the current state to many sub-States, whereby new states emerge, small states grow and large states get smaller. The biggest loser in the new map is Saudi Arabia. As for Iraq, it will be transformed into three sub-states. There is a new situation for Syria and others which will appear later.
-Peters casts blame on the United States and its allies not to invest great opportunity after the fall of Baghdad to divide Iraq into three states for what he calls "end injustice". The division will lead to a Shiite state in the south, Sunni in the center and a Kurdish state (Free Kurdistan) in the north. Here Peters addresses Western countries saying "Free Kurdistan from Diyarbakir to Tabriz will be friendlier to the West from Bulgaria to Japan."
-As for the small Iraqi Sunnis made up of three provinces in the center will only choose subsequently unity with Syria. Syria will lose the entire coastal region in favor of the "Greater Lebanon Mediterranean character leading to the return of the Phoenician". But Iraqi Shiite south will be the nucleus "of the State of the Shiite Arab majority which will extend along the Persian Gulf". Jordan will maintain the current territorial borders plus new areas of Saudi Arabia, i.e. there will be larger Lebanon and larger Jordan. The interpretation here is the absorption and resettlement of the Palestinians in Jordan and Lebanon.
-Peters considers the reason for the stagnation in the Islamic world because of the way in which the Royal Family in Saudi Arabia deals with Mecca and Medina which despises them as a special "feudal property". He says that such holy places should not be left under the control of the police state, as being one of the world's most intolerant and repressive regimes. He adds that "the arrival of the Saudis to wealth and hegemony is the worst thing that happened to the Muslim world all over centuries, since the age of the Prophet and the worst of what happened to the Arab nation since the "Ottoman victory if not Mongolian" (literal translation). It is therefore proposed to develop Mecca and Medina under the authority of a private religious authority like the Vatican (Super Islamic Vatican). It is proposed to incorporate Saudi coastal oil wells of the Shiite state, particularly as these are Shiite areas and incorporate southeast Saudi Arabia, Yemen, and the northern part with Jordan. Thus, the current inventory of Saudis in Riyadh and the surrounding areas can be made. This way, says Ralph Peters "Saudi family would not be able to inflict further harm and evil Islam and the world."
-As for Iran, it will lose, in it turn, large parts of the territory of Azerbaijan and Kurdistan and the Shiite state and Free Baluchistan, but would get the "Heart" of Afghanistan because this region is linked linguistically and historically with Iran. Iran will become an ethnic State once again, but does not take a decision on "Bendrebbas." As for Afghanistan, it will compensate for the loss of Pakistan as it is the return of tribal areas in northwestern Pakistan, Afghan brethren will join the residents of these areas. In order to return non-natural corollary Pakistan to a natural State, it must abandon the Baluch to the emergence of a "Free Baluchistan".
-Kuwait will remain in the new Middle East unchanged. The UAE will include some of the new Shiite state, which will be hostile to Iran and not ally says Peters. Dubai will remain the same club "for the corrupt wealthy people". The author alleges that Babylon fell three times and will remain volatile until the natural boundaries are verified. He concludes his article with the words "Unless there is a correction of the border in the Greater Middle East consistent with these natural borders and bonds of blood and religion, there will be more bloodshed in the region", as if he warns of the bloodiest limits if the American blood boundaries did not succeed.
What is the new Middle East Project?
Despicably, and with unprecedented arrogance, Condoleezza Rice announced that it had extended another week to «Israel» to continue its brutal war against Lebanon and said: What is happening today is painful for the birth a new Middle East. Thus, the war against the brother Lebanon is an American-Israeli project so as to draw a new map of the region worse than that of Sykes-Picot. Hence, the continuation of aggressive war came from Washington.
•How the new Middle East Project is born? As expressed by Dr. Ghazi Hussein in the Bulletin of integrity: “The term New and Larger Middle East has many political roots behind its usage; it does not stem from the characteristics of the region or its demographic or political nature, but from the vicinity of the area to Europe and European desire to exploit its wealth and fight its people, and the elimination of Arab unity and Arab regime, tearing the Arab homeland into sectarian and ethnic sub-states, and the reinstallation (as is happening in Iraq) and legitimizing the Jewish rape of Palestine and the liquidation of the Arab case of Palestine, the Zionist project established to serve the Zionist entity and American imperialism. Imagine Theodore Hertzel, the founder of the Zionist movement (A Middle Eastern Commonwealth in which Jews have an active state wherein they will have a major economic and leading role and which will be their investments center). The Zionist conference of Baltimore held in 1942, recommended the establishment of a Middle Eastern Commonwealth led by Jews. Jews of Britain and the United States succeeded in instilling «the idea of the Middle East» in the heart of British and American policies during World War II. They set forth a plan for the Judaization of Arab Palestine and the establishment of «Israel» and turning it into a modern industrial base to be the cornerstone of future American projects and schemes in the region.
-«Israel» and the United States planned for a war of aggression in June 1967 and the invasion of Lebanon in 1982 for their military and political targets; the American administration prevented the aggressor «Israel» from the withdrawal in application of the resolutions of international legitimacy. Labor Zionist Party launched the establishment of Israeli-Palestinian-Jordanian union like the Benelux union between Belgium, Netherlands and Luxembourg. Jewish intellectuals called for feeding sectarianism and fragmenting the major Arab Countries.
-This Zionist planning does not care about the principles of right, justice and international law and international covenants and conventions, the sovereignty and independence of Arab countries and the inviolability of its territory, but depends upon the law of the jungle in igniting preventive and preemptive wars and imposing a “fait accompli” resulting from the use of force and the Jewish settler colonialism and to compel Arab governments to be subservient to the Zionist schemes, while violating their will. The American Jewish orientalist “Bernard Lewis” set forth a blueprint for the Middle East published in the American journal “Foreign Affairs” in the fall of 1992 under the title: «Reconsideration of the Middle East». It draws up a new Middle East geographic boundaries to Islamic republics in Central Asia. He expected the abolition of the role of the Arabs in the new history of the region in favor of other regional forces with «Israel» in the forefront.
The American expert in the region's affairs “Robert Stphalo” expected that some Arab countries may involve «Israel» as a principal player directly and openly in the game of balance-of-powers and differences among themselves by building alliances between them and «Israel», by which such countries become more powerful in their conflicts, traditional and contemporary differences. Stphalo attributes this new phenomenon to two facts: firstly, that «Israel» is the dominant military force in the region, capable of shifting the balance-of-power between an Arab State against another Arab country. And secondly, that a number of Arab countries realized that the key to Washington is often in «Israel», and therefore those States should improve their relations with «Israel» to ensure a good relationship with Washington. The creator of “Dimona Atomic Reactor” the butcher of Qana “Shimon Peres” thought about a new Middle East in November 1992 in a meeting with a group of educated Egyptians in the National Institute for Middle East Studies in Cairo. “Israel” submitted in the book of Peres «a new Middle East System», which appeared in 1993 in Oslo agreements and Wadi Araba and the tires economic summits in Casablanca, Amman, Cairo and Doha, a colonial project for domination of the region's economies, change of its culture and leaderships, revoking the «Larger Israel» geographical approach and adopting the economically «Greater Israel».
• United States & the Greater Middle East Project
-The United States put at the beginning of March 2004 «the Greater Middle East Project» set by Bernard Lewis and Shimon Peres, and replaced the word of the new scheme put forward by Peres by the word “Greater”. But, Condoleezza Rice returned on July 21, 2006 and used the new word “New” instead of “Larger”.
-The American administration believes that there is a real opportunity after changing the Iraqi regime by force and war on Lebanon to redraw the map of the new Arab and Islamic region, worse than that of Sykes-Picot, while the worldwide Judaism and «Israel» had declared war on Arabs and Muslims.
-The “New” or “Larger” Middle East Project came into existence in accordance with a study by the two Jewish advisers in the Bush administration, Richard Perle and Douglas Fayt under the title:“A new strategy to ensure the security of «Israel»”. The study calls for the abandonment of Oslo agreement due to the inability of the Palestinian Authority and respect for human Jews in the «Jewish state of Greater Israel», linking Israeli and U.S. interests in the region with the overall American strategy.
-The killer “Sharon” alleged that terrorism that struck the United States is the same, which strikes «Israel» for several decades, the Jews of the American administration claimed that the detestation of Arabs towards «Israel» is stemming from religious and historical legacy and that the Arab-Islamic culture and curriculum are responsible for the hatred and incitement to murder Jews and Americans.
• American perceptions of the Greater Middle East Project
-The American project is stemmed from two main pillars: the first pillar says that the substantial deterioration in the Arab situation in the political, economic and social aspects requires the beginning in reform. And second: that these conditions constitute a fertile ground for the emergence of extremism and international terrorism.
-The project calls for the need to initiate change and reform, the necessity to assist international efforts to achieve it, because the United States rejected these conditions and insisted to be change them and to eradicate terrorism (resistance), hatred and incitement against «Israel» as well as American interests, the American initiative identified reform in three goals: democracy, knowledge and women's freedom, and included the means to achieve them.
-The United States is working to integrate the Zionist entity in the Arab region and stabilize it on the expense of land and rights of Palestinians, Arabs as well as Muslim rights, and make it the dominant Center and the region to maintain the indivisibility and underdevelopment, dependence and exploitation. The United States sponsored the Zionist project for the future of the region and integrated it in its cosmic strategy and brings it today into existence to secure control over the oil wells and pathways as well as its assets and liquidate the question of Palestine.
-The project aims to force the Arabs to cancel the boycott and scramble for normalization as well as impose the hegemony of «Israel» on the Arab economies. It is characterized by two main indications: firstly, that it is a curtain to integrate «Israel» in the region and assume the role of leader and center, and secondly: that the driver and motivator of the project is American from outside the region. We may be surprised in hearing the talks of the United States about freedom and democracy, which worked and is working to bury the freedom of people in Palestine, Lebanon, Iraq, Afghanistan, Somalia, and everywhere in the world and which is the most powerful nation in history that practiced genocide wars and other wars of aggression. It is the only country in the world that used nuclear bombs and weapons and ammunition internationally banned completely-American, weapons and used by internationally banned «Israel» in the wars of aggression against Lebanon and Palestine. The new witness is the massacre at Qana first in 1996 and then the second being Qana massacre in 2006, it is the criminal and racist policy of America and Israel against civilians?!!!
In conclusion, I say that history will remember those who are victory makers and those who are conspirators and submissive Arab rulers. History will write down the barbarism, brutality and criminality of America and the Israeli government. We are in a crisis of regional conflicts and international terrorism, which exceeded the dialogue of civilizations into a conflict between religions in the American project for “A New Middle East”.
