The Clinton e-mails, big oil & terrorism against Shi’a Muslims

As terrorist bomb blasts leave a trail of innocent blood from Afghanistan to Iraq and to Syria, resulting in the martyrdom of 80 Shi’a Muslims and injury to 250 others in Kabul on July 23, the 55 casualties in Iraq’s Kazemain on July 24, the bombardment of Syrian civilians near Aleppo by the US and French aircraft on July 22,  new and startling disclosures have been coming to light from the exposure of E-mails of US Democratic presidential aspirant, Hillary Clinton.

In addition, these terrible events that were preceded by the huge July 3 explosion at Baghdad’s Karradah neighbourhood left over 300 Shi’a Muslims martyred and hundreds of others injured. The former Secretary of State, while in office not just manipulated state funds for her private electronic server, but dabbled in big oil deals and terrorist plots against Shi’a Muslims. Stay with us for interesting facts on the mindset of the former First Lady, whose run for the White House faces several impediments. Caleb T. Maupin, a MintPress journalist and political analyst who resides in New York City focusing his coverage on US foreign policy and the global system of monopoly capitalism and imperialism, mainly contributed to this research article, with necessary editions by IRIB English Radio.

Reports say only 28 percent of Americans view Hillary Clinton as honest, while sixty-seven percent view her as untrustworthy – the remaining 5-percent are still undecided. Clinton could, of course, be in an even worse position when it comes to her email. She escaped criminal charges from the FBI earlier this month, when Director James Comey laid out a searing catalog of offenses by Clinton that many interpreted as bald-faced proof that she not only broke the law but lied to the public about her email practices. Over half of Americans believe that the FBI should have brought charges against Hillary Clinton, who has been generally quiet on the topic, with the exception of a few brief TV interviews in the days after the FBI announced its findings. She is expected to remain largely mum on the details, because if she provides any more detail than she already has, she will contradict her testimony on the matter before the House Select Committee on the fiasco in Benghazi in Libya, which the GOP argues was false. It means she cannot admit she lied because doing so admits perjury to the Congress. Although, along with the State Department, she has resisted calls for her to testify, further leaks about her political scandals while in office, could have a devastating effect on her hopes for the White House. Her ties with the illegal Zionist entity and her plot for fueling sectarian conflicts in the Muslim World with emphasis on acts of terrorism against Shi’a Muslims, in line with the Takfiri policies of Saudi Arabia, warrant a probe into the events both before and after the leaking of her E-mail contents.

We need not go back to March 2011 when the peaceful protests in Syria of a group of people was skillfully exploited by Hillary’s State Department to instruct the US ambassador in Damascus to break all diplomatic norms by joining the protests and giving it a political hue against the legal government of President Bashar al-Assad, as a prelude to send in dangerously armed Takfiri terrorists from across the borders of Turkey and Jordan, where bloodthirsty criminal had been assembled from several countries with money provided by Saudi Arabia, to pose as the Syrian opposition, in order to distract attention from the crimes of the illegal Zionist entity against the Palestinians.

Let us start with, on July 1^st this year on the Last Friday of Blessed Ramadhan, when thousands of people had peacefully assembled in the streets of Zaria, a city in the northern part of Nigeria, carrying banners with images of the al-Aqsa Mosque in Bayt al-Moqaddas as well as placards and flags denouncing the illegal Zionist entity called Israel. The occasion was the International Qods Day, initiated by the Islamic Republic of Iran in 1979 to mobilise public opinion worldwide for the cherished goal of liberation of the former qibla or direction of prayer for Muslims, and eventually of the whole of Palestine which the Eastern European Jews usurped in 1948. This year’s rally in Nigeria, which proceeded peacefully in spite of threats from the Boko Haram terrorists, was particularly noteworthy, since besides Shi’a Muslims, it included Christians, Sunnis, and others who oppose Israel’s crimes against humanity. The rallies in Nigeria not only denounced the Zionists but also called for release of the leader of Nigeria’s Islamic Movement, Sheikh Ibraheem Zakzaky, who is languishing in jail, following the massacre of over a thousand Shi’a Muslims on 12^th December 2015 in Zaria by the military on the orders of the Wahhabi regime in Riyadh, and with the tacit approval of the US and Israel.

Now we understand, Hillary Clinton’s E-mails saying “sectarian war” is “not a bad thing”, and how “big oil”, whether in Nigeria or in Saudi Arabia, attracts the Americans and the Zionists, and aligns itself with fanatics who hate Shi’a Muslims, because the School of the Prophet’s Ahl al-Bayt, as Shi’a Muslims are known, with its message of social justice, and opposition to capitalism, is an enemy of Wall Street.

Just a few days after the Qods Day rallies across the world, neighborhoods in the predominantly Shi’a Muslim oil-rich eastern province of what the British created as Saudi Arabia in 1932, were rattled with bombs – the work of terrorists of the IS or the self-styled Islamic State of Iraq and Syria. It is an irony that Shi’a Muslims live as second-class citizens and are deprived of their own oil wealth.in this particular area, which has been their ancestral homeland, long before the Wahhabi brigands from Najd occupied it – similar to the occupation of Palestine by the Zionists of East Europe. The Shi’a Muslims are mostly not permitted to become educated, and are forced to work as manual laborers. While the Saudi ruling family lives in luxury, it is Shi’a Muslims who sweat in the oil fields and refineries, extracting and refining the thousands of barrels exported by the repressive regrime every day. The Shi’a community in Saudi Arabia still boils with rage over the fact that their most high ranking leader, Ayatollah Sheikh Nimr Baqer an-Nimr, was executed in January this year.

Lebanon’s legendry anti-terrorist movement, the Hezbollah, has had its mosques targeted by ISIS bombs, as its fighters continue to support the Syrian government on the battlefield against terrorists – funded by the Saudis, trained by Turkey, armed by the Zionists, and supported by the US and certain West European states. Meanwhile, in Iraq, the long suppressed Shi’a Muslims majority which Saddam and his Ba’th minority party used to massacre at will, has faced a wave of terrorism since the US invasion of Iraq. One of the most holy sites, the al-Askariyayn Shrine in Samarra, where the 10^th and 11^th Infallible Imams of the Prophet’s Household repose in peace, was bombed in 2006 by Saudi-funded and US-backed Takfiri terrorists, resulting in the destruction of its beautiful golden dome. Over the year later, Takfiri terrorists used explosives to destroy the two exquisite minarets of this shrine, which thanks to the resolve of the Iraqi people has been rebuilt.

Almost everywhere Shi’a Muslims are being targeted and killed. The Islamic Republic of Iran, the only country in the world with a government based on the School of the Ahl al-Bayt of Prophet Mohammad (blessings of God upon him and his progeny), faces a wave of attacks motivated by sectarian hatred, fueled by the Saudis. A terrorist outfit styling itself Jundollah or ‘soldiers of God’, in spite of its devilish nature, operates on Iran’s border with Pakistan and Afghanistan, funding its operations by smuggling heroin. The outfit was infiltrated by the US Port Authority Police, which refused to notify Iran of pending terrorist attacks.

On July 4^th, this year, over a year after the disclosure of Hillary Clinton’s electronic malpractice while in office, Wikileaks released 30,000 of her e-mails. A number of her e-mails dealt with Iraq. In some of the e-mails it can be read how she and other State Department officials scrambled to protect from the Iraqi government’s evacuation orders, the armed Iranian rebels of “Camp Ashraf” in which are based the notorious MKO terrorists – known in Iran as hypocrites for their siding with Saddam during the war against the Islamic Republic and designated legally by the US as a Foreign Terrorist Organization until 2013. The MKO terrorists have conducted many assassinations and bombings, martyring since 1980 thousands of Iranians including senior government officials, such as the president, the prime minister, the judiciary chief, ministers and MPs. In 1991, the MKO dutifully served Saddam in attacking Iraqi Shi’a Muslims and desecrating the holy shrines in Najaf and Karbala. The most notorious of MKO’s recent acts has been assassinating peaceful Iranian scientists in coordination with Mossad. Hillary Clinton’s newly released e-mails show how the elected Iraqi government grew tired of the presence of a group of murderous terrorists who were using Iraqi soil as a headquarters for their operations. Hillary and other State Department officials negotiated with the Iraqi government, doing everything they could to make sure that the MKO terrorists, who have killed tens of thousands of innocent civilians over the last three decades, were not arrested and were safely evacuated to a new location.

The United States and Israel, in a close alliance with Saudi Arabia, are actively supporting the killing of Shi’a Muslims around the world. From the US-backed Nigerian regime, to Yemen, Iraq, and Syria, forces that are actively calling for the slaughter of Shi’a Muslims, are receiving sometimes passive and sometimes blatant support. One of the already leaked Clinton e-mails indicates that US leaders are considering the possible benefits of a sectarian war between Sunnis and Shi’a Muslims across the region. An e-mail forwarded to Hillary Clinton about Syria contained the deeply disturbing passage: “The fall of the House of Assad could well ignite a sectarian war between the Shi’as and the Sunni majority of the region, drawing in Iran, which, in the view of Israeli commanders would not be a bad thing for Israel and its Western allies.”

The hypothetical war discussed by Hillary Clinton’s e-mails is not exactly what’s happening. Observers in the West are tempted to repeat commonly heard statements like “these people have been fighting for hundreds of years”. However, if one looks deeper at the conflict, it is evident these cliches do not apply. For example, in the Islamic Republic of Iran, Sunni Muslims are free to openly practice their faith, as are Christians, Zoroastrians, and Jews. All believers in monotheism are guaranteed religious freedom under the Iranian constitution, which is based on the teachings of the Prophet’s Ahl al-Bayt.

In Syria, Lebanon’s Hezbollah and advisors from Iran are standing shoulder to shoulder with not just the Sunni Arab majority of Syria, but with the Christians, the Kurds and other ethnic and religious groups, in order to fight the Takfiri terrorists. The overwhelming majority of the soldiers in the Syrian Arab Army loyal to the internationally recognized Syrian government, are Sunnis, although President Assad is an Alawite.

In Yemen, the Zaidi Shi’a Ansarullah organization, is aligned with both Sunnis and secularists in a Revolutionary Committee to fight Saudi-led state terrorism against the country. Shi’a Muslims are simply not pushing religious sectarianism in the region, neither are most Sunnis. The call for violence against people on the basis of their religious and ethnic background is coming from a specific group of Takfiri heretics, who follow the Wahhabi cult and claim to be Sunni, despite the fact that the majority of Sunnis do not consider them to be Muslims at all in view of their cannibalistic behaviour and barbarism against men, women and children, in violation of the letter and spirit of the holy Qur’an. Because of the Saudi and Qatari connection, as well as the sale of crude from the occupied oilfields of Syria and Iraq through Turkey and with the blessings of the US, these terrorists have lots of money behind them. The campaign of violence, primarily targeting Shi’a Muslims cannot truly be described as a “Sunni-Shi’a” conflict. In reality, this is a war on civilization waged by Wahabbis. The most open targets of the Wahabbi terrorists are Shi’a Muslims, but many Sunnis and Christians have been slaughtered by them as well. As Wahabbi terrorists get stronger, it is not only the Shi’a, but Christians, Druze, Izadis, and even moderate Sunnis who are in great danger.

Wahabbism is a distorted interpretation of Islam started by Mohammad Ibn Abdul-Wahhab, who was disinherited by his scholarly father for his heretical views. Ibn Abdul Wahhab’s divisive ideas appealed to Ibn Saud, a desert brigand of Najd, who adopted them in 1744, in order to legitimize his plunder and killing of neighbouring tribes. On 21 April 1801 the Wahhabis raided the holy cities of Karbala and Najaf and after massacring thousands of innocent men, women, and children, these brigands stripped the gold from the domes and minarets of the holy shrines of Imam Ali and Imam Husain (peace upon them). Next, in 1803 and 1804, the Wahhabis attacked and looted the holy cities of Mecca and Medina, massacring thousands of Muslims. Of course, the Ottoman Turks retaliated and destroyed the Aal-e Saud clan and executed their chief in Istanbul. The British who were scheming to disintegrate the Ottoman Empire, stepped in the late 1800s to fund and promote the remnants of the Aal-e Saud clan ant its heretical ideology of Wahabbism. In 1932, the British gifted the Wahhabi clan with a country called Saudi Arabia. With the British exit from the region after World War 2, the United States began cooperating with Saudi Arabia and Wahabbism. The reason Britain and the US aligned with the Wahabbis was obvious: oil. The Arabian Peninsula is one of the most oil-rich regions in the entire world. With Saudi Wahabbis as their allies, British Jewish bankers like the Rothschilds secured access to the oil of the Persian Gulf region. After the Russian Revolution, the American and Anglo bankers were desperate for oil, because the Soviet Union had taken the Baku oil fields of Azarbaijan out of their hands. Control of Saudi Arabia’s oil was key in securing the allied victory during the Second World War. The Nazis great weakness was their dependence on imported oil to fuel their war machine.

Wahabbism began to spread during the 1970s, as steeper oil prices made Saudi Arabia far wealthier. The CIA aided Osama bin Laden in building a Wahabbi army in Afghanistan to fight against the People’s Democratic Party during the 1980s. Now two dangerous groups of Wahabbi terrorists control huge chunks of Syria – the so-called Islamic State of Iraqi and Syria (referred to as ISIS or Daesh), and the an-Nusra Front. Among the so-called “moderate” rebels, the majority are Wahabbis of some variety. It is widely confirmed that Saudi Arabia, as well as some western countries have been actively supporting the an-Nusra Front. General David Petraeus recently testified before Congress that he believed the United States should directly join these efforts, and send guns to an-Nursa, previously known as al-Qa’eda in Syria. Saudi television not only promotes Wahabbism, but fixates on hate for Shi’a Muslims. Saudi Arabia’s propaganda to Muslims around the world preaches that Iran is somehow attempting to conquer the world into a Shi’a empire. Saudi propaganda dismisses all the forces resisting Wahabbi terrorism in the Middle East as some kind of vast, Iranian conspiracy, despite the fact that they are one of the most religiously and politically diverse military coalitions in world history, containing Communists, Islamic Revolutionaries, Arab Nationalists, and Christians, which are all united against Wahabbi terrorism. The Nigerian government that slaughtered Shia Muslims in December, the Saudi-Wahabbi Kingdom, and Hillary Clinton, all have one thing in common: They all work closely with the top US oil companies. British Petroleum, Royal Dutch Shell, Exxon-Mobile, and Chevron are the four largest oil companies in the world, and are commonly called the “Supermajors.” They function almost like a trust or cartel, by coordinating production and pricing with each other.  All four of them buy Saudi oil.

Hillary Clinton’s personal foundation (along with the Council on Foreign Relations which strategizes for the CIA, and other major US foreign policy think tanks) is openly bankrolled by Exxon-Mobile and other big oil corporations. The Nigerian government cooperates closely with Shell and Chevron as the top oil- exporting country on the African continent. Shell oil even maintains its own private army in the oil-rich Niger Delta Region. It’s no coincidence that Wahhabi terrorists in “Boko Haram” have been terrorizing people in Nigeria for over a decade. Saudi Arabia’s spreading of Wahhabi fanaticism around the world depends on its relationship with big oil corporations on Wall Street. Everywhere big oil goes, Wahhabism is not far behind. Wahhabi terrorists are working to overthrow the Syrian Arab Republic, a country that cooperates closely with the Islamic Republic of Iran, and had been talking about joint oil pipelines and ventures when the civil war began five years ago. Wahhabi terrorists are working to fight against the democratic uprising in Yemen, and restore the Saudi- backed dictator Mansour Hadi. Wahhabi terrorists have targeted Russia, and even unleashed a wave of stabbings on trains in the People’s Republic of China. The targets of Wahhabi fanatics are also the biggest enemies of Wall Street. The destruction of Libya in 2011 with a NATO bombing campaign, and the toppling of the Islamic Socialist government unleashed Wahhabi forces in the country. Al-Qa’eda and ISIS had almost no presence in Libya before 2011, but since the NATO bombing campaign they have become stronger than ever before. The same can be said for Iraq and Afghanistan. US foreign policies, executed in the name of a “War on Terror,” seem to be making Wahhabi terrorists more powerful.

It makes sense that big oil would align itself with fanatics who hate Shi’a Muslims, who honor not just the Prophet of Islam, but his Blessed Progeny, the Infallible Imams of the Ahl al-Bayt. The sayings of Imams contain many anti-capitalist and populist sentiments. They side with the oppressed and strive to promote the cause of the downtrodden masses. The Islamic Revolution of Iran in 1979 took a major oil producing country out of the hands of Wall Street and London. The Shah, who had acted as the puppet of big oil corporations, and lived in splendor as his country remained underdeveloped and impoverished, and was toppled. The Islamic Republic of Iran came into existence with slogans such as “Neither East nor West”, “Neither Capitalism nor Communism, but Islam”. The Islamic Revolution in Iran inspired Muslims all across the world. Within Saudi Arabia, Shi’a oil workers rose up and battled against the Wall Street oil monarchy. Shi’a Muslims in Lebanon have formed the legendry anti-terrorist movement, the Hezbollah, which acts almost as a commune state, caring for the people and arming them to defend themselves. Hezbollah scored a huge victory against Israeli invaders in 2006. In Nigeria, Pakistan, Lebanon, Iran, Iraq, Saudi Arabia and elsewhere, Shi’a Muslims are obligated by their faith to stand not just for religious principles, but also for social justice. Within Iran, one can see government officials who honor Malcolm X and the Black Liberation Movement of the United States. The Iranian government came to the aid of the Irish Republican Army as it battled against the British Empire in the 1980s. Iran has continued to aid the Palestinian people in their fight against Israel, despite much of the Palestinian leadership being very hostile to them, and their having a different religious perspective. The attack on Shi’a Muslims is done in order to protect the rich and powerful, because Shi’as have become a vehicle with which those who long for stability and social justice can express themselves. Everyone who values justice and wants an end to terrorism should be deeply concerned about the rising persecution of Shi’a Muslims. This is the reason Hillary Clinton’s e-mails show call for sectarian conflict among Muslims.
