Kevin Barrett

Listen HERE Ken Meyercord is the author of “Immoral Injury,” the heart of my recent Veterans Today post “Trump’s Shameless Murder of Soleimani Will Kill Thousands of US Troops—By Suicide.” Ken is also a fearless truth warrior who attends think-tank-sponsored events in the Washington, DC area and asks the hard questions. Watch him intervene during the Q&A at the SETA Foundation’s forum on US war on Iran (at the 1:02:50 minute mark) asking about a near-future Iran-liberates-Iraq-from-US-occupation scenario. Concerning which, he writes: “The SETA event took place on Tuesday, before Iran retaliated with missiles. The moderator collected 5 questions at…

Kevin Barrett

Above is part of Press TV’s rolling coverage of the aftermath of Trump’s murder of Gen. Soleimani. Below is my interview with Tasnim News Agency from last October. -KB Gen. Soleimani World’s Most Accomplished Military Figure in Counter-Terrorism: Analyst TEHRAN (Tasnim) – An American political analyst and author described Iran’s IRGC Quds Force Commander Major General Qassem Soleimani as the “world’s most accomplished military figure” in the field of counter-terrorism. “Major General Qassem Soleimani is the world’s most accomplished military figure in the field of counter-terrorism…Gen.

Is a Hidden Hand Destabilizing Iraq?

Kevin Barrett

The United States has “hijacked” the anti-government protests in Iraq to destabilize the country for defying Washington’s demands, an American scholar says. “The United States occupying Iraq was one of the greatest war crimes of the past century and the occupiers are now calling for immediate new elections,” said Kevin Barrett, an author, journalist and radio host with a Ph.D.  in Islamic and Arabic Studies. “When the occupier says it’s time for the current government to step down on the basis of these protests, that’s a sign that the protest has been hijacked and weaponized by the occupation,” Barrett told…

CIA Mockingbird Asset NYT Pushes Color Revolution Coup Attempt in Iraq By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor, for Crescent International I wrote this article two weeks ago. Since then, it has become abundantly clear that its thesis is correct. -KB In early October, violent protests broke out in Baghdad and other Iraqi cities. Some of them degenerated into all-out riots. Eight members of the security forces and almost 100 civilians were killed, and more than 5,000 wounded. At the time of this writing (October 21), the situation is beginning to flare up again as the Arba‘in pilgrimage winds down. The…

Arbaeen: The world’s biggest event

Kevin Barrett

By Kevin Barrett, Veterans Today Editor Today is Arbaeen, the annual commemoration of the martyrdom of Imam Hussein, the Prophet Muhammad’s grandson. During the past decade an estimated twenty to thirty million people (with outlier estimates closer to fifty million) have been making the pilgrimage to Karbala each year. Wikipedia’s list of “largest peaceful gatherings” is dominated by recent Arbaeen pilgrimages. It seems rather miraculous that Iraq—the nation most devastated by the 9/11-triggered Zionist-incited scorched-earth operations—should be hosting a pilgrimage five to ten times as big as the much better known canonical Muslim Pilgrimage, the Hajj. The Saudis, with all…

Iraq, Syria defeating Oded Yinon plan a.k.a. Daesh?

Kevin Barrett

I just gave this interview with Press TV, pointing out that the “terrorism” targeted by the so-called “war on terror” was invented by Netanyahu and colleagues at the JCIT in 1979. Its purpose is to hasten the destabilization and balkanization of Middle Eastern countries, and to rally the West behind a permanent war on Islam for Israel.
