THE “ARAB SPRING” AND US GLOBAL HEGEMONY “ARAB SPRING” THE AND GLOBAL HEGEMONY Wall Street and London corporate- financier-funded NGOs and proxies along with NATO forces engineered the 2011 uprisings in the Middle East and have installed puppet leaders open to their agendas for economic and political control. n January 2011, we were told that "spontaneous", "indigenous" uprising ad begun sweeping North Africa and the Middle East in what was being ailed as the "Arab Spring". It would be almost four months before the corporate media would admit that the US had been behind the uprisings and that they were anything but "spontaneous" or "indigenous". In a 14 April 2011 New York Times article titled "US Groups Helped Nurture Arab Uprisings", it was stated: "A number of the groups and individuals directly involved in the revolts and reforms sweeping the region, including the April 6 Youth Movement in Egypt, the Bahrain Center for Human Rights and grass-roots activists like Entsar Qadhi, a youth leader in Yemen, received training and financing from groups like the International Republican Institute, the National Democratic Institute and Freedom House, a nonprofit human rights organization based in Washington..." Regarding the US National Endowment for Democracy (NED), the article added: “The Republican and Democratic institutes are loosely affiliated with the Republican and Democratic Parties. They were created by Congress and are financed through the National Endowment for Democracy, which was set up in 1983 to channel grants for promoting democracy in developing nations. The National Endowment receives about $100 million annually from Congress. Freedom House also gets the bulk of its money from the American government, mainly from the State Department." It is hardly a speculative theory, then, that the uprisings were part of an immense geopolitical campaign conceived in the West and carried out through proxies with the assistance of disingenuous foundations, organisations and the stable of NGOs maintained throughout the world. As we will see, preparations for the "Arab Spring” and the global campaign that is now encroaching on both Russia and China, as predicted in February 2011's "The Middle East & then the World", began not then, as unrest had already begun, but years before the first "fist" was raised and within seminar rooms in Washington, DC, and New York, US-funded training facilities in Serbia and camps held in neighbouring countries, not within the Arab world itself. by Tony Cartalucci © 24 December 20II Email: cartalucci@gmail.com Website: http://landdestroyer.blogspot.com Article available at: http://tinyurl.com./7e6elnj by Tony Cartalucci © 24 December 20II The Timeline: 2008-2010 — Preparing the Battlefield 3-5 December 2008: Egyptian activists from the now infamous “April 6" Youth Movement were in New York City for the inaugural Alliance of Youth Movements (AYM) Summit, also known as Movements.org. There, they received training, networking opportunities and support from AYM's various corporate and US governmental sponsors, including the US Department of State itself. The AYM 2008 Summit report states that James Glassman, the then Under Secretary of State for Public Diplomacy and Public Affairs, attended, as did Jared Cohen, who sits on the policy planning staff of the Article available at: http://tinyurl.com./7e6elnj NEXUS ° II Email: cartalucci@gmail.com FEBRUARY - MARCH 2012 www.nexusmagazine.com
