NATO Envoy: Military Planning Against Iran and Syria is Underway

The grand chessboard is in play.
Last month we reported that the Pentagon has issued a warning order to ‘Prepare for War’.
According to Dmitry Rogozin, Russia’s envoy to NATO, it’s not just Israel and the Pentagon that are getting ready to expand the middle east theater:
Rogozin said in an interview with Russia’s Izvestia daily newspaper published on Friday that the NATO was pursuing a long-reaching goal of preparing an attack on Iran, adding that the alliance intends to change governments whose views do not coincide with those of the West.
“The noose around Iran is tightening. Military planning against Iran is underway. And we are certainly concerned about an escalation of a large-scale war in this huge region,” Rogozin added.
The Russian envoy further pointed out that Syria and later Yemen could be NATO’s last steps on the way to launch an attack on Iran.
This comes as there are speculations that Israel is preparing for an attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities to divert attention from Palestinian efforts to join the United Nations.

If Russia is to be believed (and be assured that Mr. Rogozin would not be giving interviews without prior consent from Mr. Putin and President Medvedev) the missile defense shield being built by the EU is designed not to defend against missiles from Iran, but to prepare for an attack:
Washington has said its nuclear missile defense plans were designed to prevent any possible missile strikes from Iran or North Korea.
“The missile defense system is not purely a defensive system,” envoy Dmitry Rogozin said. “There are serious and authoritative experts in Russia and in other countries who fear that the creation of a European missile defense system, officially assigned the task of blocking a threat from Iran, may in fact be a pretext for preparing an attack on Iran.”

Since 2001 Western nations have continued to expand their prescence in the region, and with the events in Egypt, Tunisia, Libya and other nations it’s becoming clear that not only is World War III on the horizon, we may very well be involved in it right now.
Tension is building, and as the economic, financial and political woes in the US come to a head, we can fully expect blame to be shifted, in one form or another, to Iran and others who will be deemed hostile to world peace and the safety of the United States.
Iran is in play, but first Syria and Yemen may need to be addressed. Rogozin claims that this, too, is becoming reality:
NATO is planning a military campaign against Syria to help overthrow the regime of President Bashar al-Assad with a long-reaching goal of preparing a beachhead for an attack on Iran, Russia’s envoy to NATO Dmitry Rogozin said.
The UN Security Council condemned on Wednesday ongoing violence in Syria and urged the country’s authorities to stop using force against peaceful protesters, while saying the current situation in the country has not yet called for NATO interference.”
[This statement] means that the planning [of the military campaign] is well underway. It could be a logical conclusion of those military and propaganda operations, which have been carried out by certain Western countries against North Africa,” Rogozin said in an interview with the Izvestia newspaper published on Friday.

We can ignore this as pure speculation and conjecture, or we can consider that this is how World Wars have started in the past. The chess pieces moved around on the board for over a decade before World War I became reality. The same was true for World War II.
What we may be witnessing now is the prelude to a third war that will encompass most of the world. If Iran is attacked it is difficult to predict how the Chinese and the Russians will respond, but considering their position on Libya, they won’t be happy about it.
Couple that with trillions in their reserves that will be hyperinflated away and the battle for critical resources like oil, water and food, and we have a recipe for disaster.

The american economy is on it’s heels. The american people are fed up with dictatorship of the Fed. Even the stupid NeoCon Repugnicans are fed up with WallStreet/Washington shenanigans. If US starts a real war, there will be draft riots. Rothschild will lose the war. He will die in a Nuclear Holocaust. Praise God.
Thats gonna be funny,Hey Those people will fight back and have missles,tanks,jets,subs,radar,8 million troops,and china,syria,pakistan,russia on their side in one way or another…..Oh YESSSSSSSSSS
I wouldn’t count on it. Syria, probably. The rest, no.
The type of missile banks would end any debate. Surface to air missile to missile banks are obviously defensive unless they play multi-role purposes and can hit jet fighters invading the nation’s boundaries. A psychotic theocracy with nuclear bombs being exported to Venezuela, South America to drop on the USA is a scary thought as is exported to the Balkans to nuke people in Europe and Russia. Then again, so is the thought of a botched NATO effort that really does start WW3. “WW4 will be fought with sticks and stones.” Pointless if you just destroy all progress that took 200 years in the making in 3 years time.
Nuclear missiles coming to a neighborhood near you? You bet! Think Russia and China aren’t thinking about the US and England if push comes to shove? I would not count on it not being in their planning, I mean who wouldn’t want to take out the Rothschilds and their World War fantasies that have been going on for 400 years (of late).
WW3 started over 9 years ago.Its just flaming up right now. The World economy depoends on The USA,plain and simple. Even Chinas economy will fizzle when We idiot Americans stop buying their cheap products. Syria,followed by Irans response to Turkey hitting Syria,and Iran are onthe chopping block. Yes I beleive nukes will fly on this one when China respondes.Lets see who our friends are now. The newest and greatest weapons will be shown off ! I hope we all enjoy the show ! The end will follow for all in my opinion. You elite wont even be able to hide underground,so go for it ! Greedy Pukes
Russia and China are both trapped in the same net that we are in. Zionist conquered Russia in 1917 and China in 1949. The Federal Reserve used US dollars to finance the destruction of both of these nations after their takeover of the Us in 1913. Our masters of disasters play us against them and vise versa to keep us slaving away, paying the bills as they amass larger and more deadly weapons. Which they use to blackmail the governments of the world into falling in line or be destroyed. One day they will unleash them on America when we are not needed by them any longer. These rogues finance both sides of every conflict to consolidate power into their hands. Nothing happens by chance its always the same element causing belligerent action.
You are spot on. Thank you for being informed!
I think, with others writing here, that World War III has already begun, and is only now moving into high gear. My country, the United States, is run by tyrannical psychopathic killers who are totally disconnected from their own people, from any notion of decency, fairness or restraint, and from reality. How could sane people challenge two of the best-armed and equipped nuclear nations in the world to a thermonuclear war? By threatening to attack both Syria and Pakistan, that is what we, and NATO, are doing! Couple this with the dire economic condition of both the U.S, and NATO countries, and the consequent, growing threat of internal chaos and revolution we have, and one sees even more insanity. This is a prescription for disaster and defeat, and perhaps even military occupation by Russia and China, following our almost certain defeat.
I can envision a Chinese and Russian Nuremberg-style tribunal being set up in devastated Washington, D.C., after this catastrophic war, to try America’s “leaders” for war crimes. Bush, Cheney, their staffs, as well as Obama and his administration, and of course military officers, would all be tried, doubtless found guilty, and executed. The still habitable parts of Europe and North America would then become Chinese and Russian colonies. This, I believe, is the future that awaits us, but it might even be an optimistic vision! Perhaps the still-classified weapons all the combatants have developed for just such a war would be so devastating that the entire Northern Hemisphere would be uninhabitable for thousands of years. Scalar weapons, if they are indeed operational, as is rumored, would destroy the entire Earth, shatter it into fragments, and perhaps even destroy the Solar System! Such weapons would be used, if they are available, by any nation faced with annihilation. What kind of people would willingly risk this? Only madmen!
