French Book on "Arab Spring" and the Black Chambers
Sami Kleib, As-Safir Newspaper
If the details published in the newly-released French book on Qatar ("Le Vilain Petit Qatar: Cet Ami Qui Nous Veut Du Mal) were founded and true, the whole story of the "Arab Spring" would be a conspiracy concocted painstakingly in the black chambers. It is a story of a solid relation between "Israel" and Qatar, that debuted since the 90's of the past century, and that was crowned by the US and France, when Qatar, led by Prince Hamad, had decided in 1993 to sell gas for the Hebrew state, because it had found in direct ties with Tel Aviv a way to be part of Washington's circle of friends.
Lutfallah Ship
The book compiles information, secrets, and interviews, among which is one on the Lutfallah ship the Lebanese Army had arrested almost a year ago on its route for Syria with weapons on board.
According to the tally, with the beginning of the "Syrian Spring," the international community turned a blind eye to arms-laden ships coming from Qatar and Libya into Syria through Lebanon. But the increasing smuggling operations sparked the concerns of the Mossad, who dashed to inform the international peacekeepers and the Lebanese Army. On April 27, 2012, Lutfallah ship was arrested in the sea. That was a warning for Doha to be more confidential in its operations and to reduce its support for Jihadists. Everyone discovered that Qatar has helped those hardliners also through advisers, including the former al-Qaeda official Abdul Karim Balhaj, who became later one of Libya's top politicians.
The book, written by France's top investigative journalists, namely Nicolas Beau and Jacques-Marie Bourget, reveals that ever since Doha opened the "Israeli" diplomatic representation bureau, it has received personalities like Shimon Peres and Tzipi Livni, who used to indulge herself with shopping in Qatar's fanciest malls and to stopover at the Prince's palace.
The book relates that PM Sheikh Hamd Bin Jassem, currently locking horns with Crown Prince Sheikh Tamim, is not a fancier of the of the Palestinian cause.
"Will those idiots keep on annoying us?" a businessman close to Hamad quoted the Sheikh as screaming when they were once watching TV and saw Palestinian officials on screen.
Al-Jazeera, a Jewish Idea
Speaking of television, the French authors skim through the why and wherefores of founding al-Jazeera or, as they term it, "the TV that owns a state." They say that the idea of launching this channel is not a genius idea of Prince Hamad, although he is a smart man. It was rather the normal result of the 1995 assassination of "Israeli" Premier Yitzhak Rabin. Following the assassination, brothers David and Jean Friedman, French Jews, decided to work on making peace between "Israel" and Palestine. They called their friends in the US, members of the AIPAC (American Israel Public Affairs Committee) who helped Qatar Prince stage a coup against his father.
Sheikh Hamad found that a brilliant idea that would serve his sponsors on one hand, and open the doors of the Arab world to "Israel" on the other.
The authors say that Hamad took the idea from the Jewish brothers and then cast them aside after Riyadh started to accuse Qatar of the creation of a Jewish channel.
Accordingly, the appointment of Mahmoud Jibril, Libyan, as a consultant for this project is worth-mentioning. In fact, the Americans have handed him the key to the channel, after it was launched. This proves that the channel was sought to baffle things in the Middle East. That was Jibril's mission, who, 15 years later, chaired Libya's National Transitional Council.
The "Spring," a Western-Qatari Fabrication
Mahmoud Jibril was not the sole US pawn in the Arab Spring. Information published in the book are so dangerous that one may raise doubts over what has been happening since two years.
The story began years ago. The US took the decision to change the Arab nation through soft revolutions, relying on social media. In September 2010, Google organized the Internet Freedom Forum in Budapest. Former US State Secretary, Madeleine Albright, later launched the Maghreb and Middle East bloggers' network foundation. A series of forums were held in Qatar, titled "Conference of New or Restored Democracies." In 2006, Bill Clinton, his daughter, and Condoleezza Rice participated in one of the conference's forums. At the time, it was agreed upon a secret document, "Plans of Change in the Arab World." As a result, Hisham Mursi, Egyptian, and Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi's son-in-law, founded the Academy of Change. The foundation comprises a number of hackers and bloggers. In January 2011, it kicked off Operation al-Tunisia (the Tunisian), which was directly administrated by the US.
The book also mentions Gene Sharp, American, the godfather of the "nonviolent resistance" idea, which is mainly based on the Internet and the "rebellion videos," where pitiable scenes are shot, whether fabricated or not. Sharp is the founder of Albert Einstein Institution, under the supervision of the US Intelligence, with the Serbian leader Srdja Popovic, who had worked for the orange revolutions in Ukraine and Georgia. Sharp received trainees which Qatar and the US sent to Belgrade.
At Einstein Institution, Mohammad Adel, the hero of the Arab Spring in Egypt, was trained. He is also member at the Academy of Change in Qatar.
The French writers explain the means of media fabrication. They advance examples, such as the images broadcast by US channels in 1991 of cormorants they alleged the diesel of Saddam Hussein's jet had killed. In fact, those pictures were taken in the rooms of Torrey Canyon oil tanker in Britain. Other shots were taken in American studios.
Moreover, the book tells dangerous information on Libya occupation and Moammar Gadhafi's killing as well as debriefs on the murder of at least three personalities well versed about the Gadhafi's "generosity" to former French President Nicolas Sarkozy and others, among whom the former Oil Minister Shukri Ghanem, who was said to have sunk in Switzerland. Huge financial interests were behind Libya's strike, namely the huge money deposits of Gadhafi in Qatar, and Qatar's desire to occupy Gadhafi's positions in Africa, where the Gulf country stretched its financial, political, and security webs under the pretense of humanitarian aids.
The French authors are not tentative on mischievously pointing out at Sarkozy's wrath when Gadhafi tried to seduce the French President's first wife, Cecilia, during their visit in Libya to release the nurses accused of instilling HIV in Libyan children's blood. The book contains a similar hint regarding Seikha Mozah.
Both Beau and Bourget expound, on one hand, the volume of Qatari investments in France, how Qatari leaders bought most of the French politicians including current President Francois Hollande, and hired ex Foreign Minister Dominique de Villepin as their attorney. Yet on the other hand, they point out at the real French anger over Qatari funding of Jihadists and terrorists in Mali and other countries.
It was a tremendous interests web that made Qatar take over the French decision and almost buy everything, including the Organization of La Francophonie.
Nonetheless, all this may not serve for long. It is true that Qatar has bought a lot of real-estates, factories, and sports teams in France, but Hollande has avoided visiting Qatar during his first foreign tours and had been to KSA then UAE instead.
Not less remarkably in terms of money and business deals, Hollande's companion has, during the G8 summit in Washington, offered the US First Lady a Le Tanneur handbag, a trademark manufactured by Hollande's very factory Sheikha Mozah had saved. Sales have suddenly towered.
Did Qaradawi Visit "Israel"?
During their preparations for their book, the authors met with tens of French, US, and Arab officials, among whom the divorcee of Sheikh Youssef Qaradawi. This Algerian lady is now an MP. "To me, he [Qaradawi] is a pressure means. He had secretly visited "Israel" in 2010 and received an appreciation certificate from the US Congress. He is an agent, and my evidence is that his name is not included in the US list of personae non gratae," she says.
The book is likely to make a big fuss in France and abroad. This book is one of a series of releases that are now available in the French bookstores to unearth a lot of ambiguities related to political decisions made between Qatar and France and explain that there is a dangerous scheme behind the Arab Spring and that money has been the master of France's political ethics for the past years. This encloses an immense catastrophe for the country of freedom, fraternity, and equality.
