Market analyst and investor Alex Krainer wonders whether by suddenly giving up Syria without a fight, Iran and Russia may have set a trap for the Zio-American Empire: “This surprised nobody. The (claim) that they came by surprise is just is inconceivable to me. That the Russians signed a truce with duplicitous backstabbing Erdogan and then they completely took their eye off the ball and just thought that ‘we have nothing to worry about there’—that’s inconceivable to me. And so the only explanation that makes sense to me is that this was by design. Also, the way the Syrian army folded, it wasn’t just one place. It was a place after place after place after place. From the top, too. It was coordinated. So they were given orders to pull back, to demobilize, to melt away. And then the question is why?

“The only place you walk into that easily is a trap. And so once you remember, how did the West finally break the Soviet Union? They drew them into Afghanistan. So that was the Soviet Union’s quagmire. It’s actually not rocket science.”

We’ll also discuss Alex’s warning that London may be in the crosshairs for a false flag attack.

Excerpts:

Kevin Barrett: So Alex, should we start with the London webcams? Have they been turned back on? Whatever happened to those?

Alex Krainer: I have no idea whether they've been turned back on. Last I checked was a few days ago, and they were not. They were still black. What happened since then, because it's been about 10 days since I posted my article, I assume that they're still black. I guess I could check, but I'm assuming that they're black.

For me, that's a very suspicious thing because there are several hundred webcams around London. And since I published my article, a handful of people wrote back and they said oh, look, this one's working and this one's working. And in fact, it turned out to be two of them working. Two or three people wrote back that the one on Abbey Road is working, and I checked. It is. And then a couple of them pointed out another one. I forget which one. It's working.

But all the other ones are black. So that's not something that can happen randomly, just by some random error that all of a sudden several hundred webcams go offline or go black all at the same time. And I found it very, very alarming because somebody obviously had to make a decision about that. It's a major European city. What's the reason why the webcams should be off? To me, the likely reason for that is that they are preparing a false flag attack and that they are hiding evidence.

Let's suppose that they are going to detonate a nuclear device above London, or a dirty bomb or some kind of a very big explosion. Maybe they would spend a few months shipping out the artwork, shipping out the gold, whatever valuable things they don't want to be destroyed or don't want to be looted. And they might be shipping in the explosives. And so maybe it's better that no evidence of that remains recorded anywhere.

So that could be the reason. But why would our venerable leaders in the West, our dear leaders, do such a nefarious thing? Well, as we know—and I documented this in my article that I published a few days ago—we've had several among the most prominent Western leaders,among whom General Mark Milley and Boris Johnson and President Morawiecki of Poland, all saying the same thing: that, quote-unquote, "if we lose in Ukraine, it will be the end of Western hegemony. We will lose the world for generations." Statements to that effect, and some of them in those exact words.

So how big are the stakes? The stakes are huge.

And we have seen them desperately trying to somehow engineer consent for war in Europe among the Western public. Because we know that there's no willingness among the Western public to escalate the war, to go collectively to war against Russia, to start another world war on the European continent. And so perhaps consent could be obtained if you had some kind of a very very emotionally charged event, something very spectacular, visible to everyone, happen. And then they could say, oh look at what the Russians have done to us! Now we have to go and kill them!

A mushroom cloud over London would be pretty iconic.

A mushroom cloud over London would be one of those indelible images that would stay with us for all eternity. And if West prevailed in this war by any chance, it would be enshrined in history that Russia dropped a nuclear bomb on London.

And then these recent provocations with storm shadow missiles and the ATACAMs also work to that angle. Because all of a sudden, the Western powers that decided, all of them, the United States included, to authorize Ukraine to launch long range, Western provided missiles to strike deep into Russia. Strategically, that doesn't change anything. It's not going to change the trajectory of the war. It's not going to turn things around for Ukraine. They can inflict some pain on the Russians, blow up a few things, kill a few people, but that's it. They can't win the war.

And Vladimir Putin has made it very plain that we understand that this is not Ukraine attacking us, because it's not Ukraine's weaponry. Ukrainians are not capable of targeting those weapons, of programming their trajectories, of selecting the targets. Ukrainians can provide the real estate and maybe pull the trigger, but everything else has to be prepared and programmed by Western technicians.

So the Russians understand perfectly that this is an attack by Western powers against Russia proper, which is an act of war. So it seems to me that the only reason why they would be doing it since it's exacerbating risks of escalation, but it cannot turn around the trajectory of the war, is to provoke a response from Russia. So that the Russia says okay, so now you, the French, you, the British, you, the Americans, are striking at us. Now we're going to strike back at you. And then, you know, they get to invoke NATO Treaty Article 5. And then you have the confrontation between Russia and the collective West, NATO.

But the Russians are not stupid. They're not buying the provocation. They're not falling for it. And they will not strike at any NATO target outside of Ukraine. So in that case, you have to do it yourself, right?

If we look at the history of warfare over centuries around the world, when the ruling establishment has to mobilize their populations, the whole of society effort to go and kill their adversaries for them, to win their war for them, they routinely organize false flag attacks. When we needed to go to start global war on terror, they somehow orchestrated the 9/11 attacks. I hope this is not news to anybody.

Let's look at Syria then. I would have thought that maybe what happened with Syria was that Russia and the Zio-American empire cut a deal and said, okay, we see Ukraine's going down one way or another. And so the American side sees Trump's coming in, new people there who are willing to get out of Ukraine and stop that war. So to let you do that, you're going to have to give us Syria. And so that would be one explanation for why the Syrian resistance to this so-called liberation from Assad just melted away like nothing.

However, there's another explanation which may be partly compatible, and that is what you offered in a recent video interview in which you suggested that it was a trap, that you can't walk that easily into victory. If you walk in that easily, it's got to be a trap. And you compare this to the Russian bear trap set by Brzezinski when Brzezinski confessed to a French magazine, I think it was Le Point, that he had baited the Russian bear into coming into Afghanistan in order to finish off the USSR. And so maybe the Russians are going to have their revenge by turning the Zionists and the Americans loose on Syria and making it their project and their liability and their responsibility. And maybe that's not going to work out too well for them.

And so I think you may be onto something. In particular, though I don't think you stressed this, what I would add to your analysis is that the Russians may see that the U.S. leadership is dominated by Zionists. And the Zionists are willing to sacrifice American imperial interests and strategies in service to their maniacal, delusional Zionist craziness. And so (the Russians say) “let's let the Americans get hijacked by the Zionists and go insane in Syria and the Middle East. The Americans already lost $8 trillion (on the 9/11 wars for Israel). They lost all their soft power going along with this Zionist 9/11 thing. So let's get them bogged down in the Middle East again, and get them doing irrational things, because they're under total Zionist control. The American empire is going to do crazy self-destructive thing...
