Multi-million-funded Al Qaeda/White Helmets are back./ By Vanessa Beeley

 

Transcript:

I was actually talking to Cory Morningstar, who put me on track to investigate the White Helmets. So I think she wrote about them originally in 2014- one year after they were established by British Military Intelligence operative, James Le Mesurier, employed by Analysis Research and knowledge ( ARK) group that’s headed up by very probably an MI6 operative Alistair Harris, who’s operating in a number of countries around the world on behalf of the British government.

And we were both talking about the fact that we’re suddenly post-earthquake seeing wall-to-wall propaganda resurrecting the White Helmet brand, that of course had been extensively damaged by Syrian civilian accusations including theft, murder, torture, detention, being embedded with armed groups dominated by Al-Qaeda, organ trafficking, child abduction for presenting their chemical weapon staged events, and of course they were proven to be staged after the Douma 2018 chemical attack when the OPCW dissident inspectors, who were on the ground, pointed out that the events at the Medical Center in Douma were staged as I had already confirmed visiting the Medical Center days after the alleged attack.

So the brand itself had been we thought irreparably damaged. They tried to revive it in Ukraine. The White Helmets go to Ukraine…That didn’t really work. In fact, it really worked against them because people then started to affiliate them with the Nazi elements in Ukraine, particularly with the mercenaries going from the northeast of Syria into Ukraine to fight alongside the Azov and Aidar battalions, and also of course more recently the influx of ISIS from Syria into Ukraine to fight alongside the Ukrainian forces such as they are now.  But suddenly after the earthquakes, or the two earthquakes, major earthquakes that hit Syria on the 6th of February, we’ve seen it’s like Groundhog Day. We’ve gone back to the 2013 promotional material wall-to-wall across all media outlets, who are the White Helmets, the same kind of copy-paste Syria Campaign narratives that were produced back then, who are they volunteers- three thousand volunteers saving 115 lives in Syria etc….But what I want to focus on today is the fact that here in Syria we see that the West collectively and their allies in Israel and the Gulf States,  namely Qatar and Saudi Arabia, are capitalizing on the humanitarian tragedy on the earthquake to effectively revive the military war against the Syrian government.

I mentioned attacks carried out by ISIS…The Western media is portraying attacks by Assad personally… Of course that’s what they’ve always done against terrorist positions in the Northwest….And reality those so-called attacks have been defensive campaigns to prevent the advance of the armed groups dominated by Al-Qaeda, known to be a U.S admitted to be a U.S. asset inside Syria.. And so the White Helmet Resurrection in my view is part of this drive to re-arm, re-equip and refinance the armed groups in the Northwest to lead a military campaign alongside ISIS in the Northeast, Central Syria and the southeast, and bolstered by the latest Israeli aggression on the 19th of February around 1:00 am when they attacked various sites in Syria, including a number of sites in Damascus, killing five Syrian civilians, injuring dozens, more damaging the Damascus Citadel’s archaeological institutes destroying historical documents by UNESCO heritage site in Sweida- to the south of Damascus- 300 kilometers away from the U.S military base in al Tanf.

So, what I’m trying to say today to people that are not aware of who the White Helmets are and who may be getting pulled into funding the various donation sites that are associated with the White Helmets… I want to try and point out how this uptake in funding has come as a result of the earthquake.. So in other words the earthquake is being exploited by the West, while of course they’re maintaining to a large degree the majority of the sanctions against the bulk of the Syrian population- 80% living under the Syrian government protection.

So first of all, let’s have a look. I’ll run through quite quickly, and I’ve only really taken a small percentage of the funding campaigns that are out there linked to the White Helmets. So first of all we see secretary Anthony Blinken: “Today, I’m announcing plans for additional 100 million dollars to provide life-saving aid in Turkey and Syria”. And I have to say also when they mentioned Syria, they’re talking about Northwest Syria. They’re talking about the pocket of Syria that is controlled by Al-Qaeda or Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham and Abu Muhammad al-Julani ( The head of HTS) who by the way refused the Convoy of 14 trucks of humanitarian aid that came from Damascus through southern Idlib, and after a week of negotiation between Syrian Arab Crescent the UAE and the armed groups dominated by al-Julani, Al-Julani put out a statement saying that he wouldn’t legitimize the internationally recognized Syrian government and he wouldn’t accept the aid.

Activists on the ground told me he was asking for ten thousand dollars per truck for it to enter Idlib to bring aid to the Syrian people under their occupation. So Blinken basically goes on this is all part of this kind of rebranding or cleaning up of the White Helmet brand. So here he states that he’s honored to meet representatives of the Syria Civil Defense, of course we know there are not the Syria Civil Defense. The real Syria Civil Defense was established in 1953 in Syria and it’s the only recognized, Syria Civil Defense by the International Organization for Civil Defense in Geneva. Added to the U.S. So Blinken’s talks about 100 million which will be distributed part of it through USAID, we have Germany offering 30 million euros for NGOs. We assume among those will be the White Helmets in the Northwest again controlled by Al-Qaeda. Samantha Power, who heads up USAID under the Biden Administration is talking look at the second part of her tweet 85 million in funding, and of course she had a conversation with Raed Al Salah (The head of the White Helmets).

And so we know that much of this funding will in effect go to the White Helmets. The White Helmets putting out their thank you tweet to Samantha Power, the USAID Bureau for humanitarian assistance, lead photographed alongside a White Helmets management. And I have to say all of this money to our knowledge is coming into bank accounts in Istanbul, that are managed by the three directors of the White Helmets: Raed Saleh, Farouq Habib and Munir Mustafa,  and of course we would like to have some transparency on how this money is going to be distributed into the Northwest which as I keep saying is under the control of al-Qaeda, again from Samantha Powers. So she very kindly adds on an additional 5 million to assist with rescue equipment fuel for life-saving operations and crucial support for ambulance networks. We’ll come on to that later.

Interesting here, I just want to point out look at the uniform and the branding of the White Helmets. We’re going very much towards kind of EU-UK fire Brigade insignia, and notice of course that everything is in English despite the fact that they work in an Arabic speaking environment. Ambassador Linda Thomas Greenfield, the United States Representative for the US, is talking about the decision to open two additional border crossings. So again, this is related in my view to the uptick in military support for the armed groups, and the Revival of the military campaign to topple the Syrian government while Syria itself is at its most vulnerable. Qatar which of course originally put in around 3 billion into supporting regime change in Syria from 2011 onwards, and whose media was responsible for much of the propaganda that demonized the Syrian government.

Now interesting that they do actually state that they’re going to support the operations of the White Helmet, but they’re a little bit coy about mentioning the amount. They say that basically they are fundraising 10 million dollars and they set aside one million. But we can assume that an awful lot more will be coming in from Qatar and Saudi Arabia. The Canadian government will provide an initial 10 million in aid to Turkey and Syria. And Denmark alongside the UK krona 20 million to the Syria civil defense. So again going directly to the White Helmets. And I think that’s around 2 million. I think sterling and a little bit more than that in dollars. The UK government not to be outdone commit to additional funding to the White Helmets to support search and rescue in Syria.

The White Helmets thanked the British delegation, which was headed up by the right honorable Andrew Mitchell who’s the Minister of State for development and Africa. Of course he was honored to meet the white Helmets Heroes involved in search and rescue operations in Northwest Syria. They’ve released an additional 4.3 million pounds. The UK foreign office funds the White Helmets year on year 2.2 million minimum, and I believe that 4.3 million has just been increased to 5 million.  I’ll do a summary of all the funding so far at the end,, but then let’s get on to what I call the kind of billionaire complex, influencer cartels “Choose Love” which was previously help refugees has had a target of 4.164 million to raise for the White Helmet. I recommend everybody goes to the UK column article: “White Helmets, Halal Systems and the Grotesque Militarization of Humanitarianism in Syria” where you will find a lot of information about Choose Love or help refugees as it was previously.

This rebranding of these NGOs, or the members of the NGO complex is very common when their reputation is tarnished. The rebranding happens just as of course it did with al-Qaeda in Syria multiple times, then we have a AVAAZ, instrumental in funding the war campaign against the Syrian government from 2011 onwards. I mentioned Danny Abdul day, and before if people remember back in, I think it was 2012 of ours had the smuggle hope for Syria Campaign, which raised over 2 million to equip the so-called citizen journalists, who produced much of the early propaganda before the White Helmets took over. So the latest of our campaigns.

I also want to draw your attention to the language that’s being used by the major and by these funding campaigns. It’s doomsday in Turkey and Syria. I’ve seen this across multiple media outlets again pushing the very familiar tagline on the White Helmets, one brave group of Syrian volunteers who’s already responding literally digging people out of trouble with bare hands. Pay attention to that sentence “The white helmets are the best hope for people in parts of Syria”. Will they admit they omit the fact that “it’s the part of Syria that contains the majority of al-Qaeda and affiliated armed terrorist groups including the Uyghurs from China, Chechens, Saudi Arabians, Afghanistanis, Turkistanis, etc….”And then they are crying out for rescue supplies: fuel and an emergency shelter,  and our movement could provide it in hours. That’s interesting. Avaaz could provide materials for the White Helmets in the Northwest now.

You’ll also be seeing- and that’s where I  really want to draw people’s attention to this. You’re going to be seeing a lot of images like this: White Helmets holding children aloft, a lot of cheering and shouting and a lot of cameras, a lot of mobile phones and very clean children and children that don’t look remotely traumatized by six -now ten- days under the rubble. You’re going to see a lot of that.. Don’t please be fooled by it.

The real theory of civil defense, the Syrian Arab Crescent and the various emergency relief teams inside proper Syria are too busy actually doing their work to pose for photo opportunities. But note here the White Helmets thank of ours then you have what’s this one the Voices Project USA, which is effectively Syria Campaign. Syria campaign established by Ayman Asfari, a UK based Syrian oil baron investigated by the serious fraud organization that looked into his funding of the conservative party under Theresa May. And this is the American version of the Syria Campaign. But the Syria campaign have their own funding campaign going again showing very emotive pictures of the White Helmets: “GoFundMe” that shut down multiple fundraisers for people inside Syria under the government protection, but however managed to raise a hundred thousand to support the White Helmets riots ahead of the White Helmets was actually allowed to start a funding campaign with Gulf. On me it wasn’t shut down. The mayor of London said it can’t. In Trafalgar Square, City Hall is assisting the Syrian community and creating Syria house a space where they can pay their respects, and we even have the royal family involved in Trafalgar Square. The king looks very sorry. Syrian Community tent where members of the Syrian Community can come together to support those who need it most and guess who’s on the left of King Charles ( in the photo) that’s Ayman Asfari, who I just mentioned, who has pretentions to the throne of Syria. The king himself has committed to making a donation to the DEC appeal that has raised over 60 million for Northwest Syria.

Now this is where it gets kind of interesting. So here we’ve got an interview on Le devoir. So in this interview I’ll translate from French. We’ve heard the cries of people under the rubble but they said we don’t have equipment to save them that’s the White Helmets, and here you have one of the primary members of the White Helmets talking about the White Helmets’ needs: fuel,  search and rescue equipment, heavy vehicles, spare parts for vehicles, tires for vehicles.

Now remember how many millions are being pledged to this organization of less than 3 000 volunteers. Now in amongst the media campaign I found these photographs of the lack of heavy machinery, while the White Helmets are allegedly digging people out from under the rubble and then let’s have a look back at this. This is the White Helmets YouTube channel in Idlib. 15.2k subscribers. It’s been running since 2013, and if you can play the video Mike, I just want to show from one year ago amount of Machinery that the White Helmets had available to them. And at one point that I want to make during this video is the White Helmets operate with an annual budget from their various sponsors in the west and in the Gulf States and Israel, 35 million  per year.

The real serious civil defense, 10 000 volunteers across 80 percent of the population of Syria, have an annual budget of 50 000. While the White Helmets have all of this equipment. And while the White Helmets had in fact stolen equipment from the rails of Syria civil defense -when they occupied areas where the real Syria civil defense operated. In Aleppo- for example, I spoke to one of the captains of the Syria civil defense the real one and he told me that for 44 collapsed buildings they only had seven machines to actually help them dig people out from under the rubble.

So this gives you an indication and a comparison between the two organizations: One funded by the West in order to destabilize their country and criminalize the Syrian government. The other, the genuine Syria civil defense that is working for the Syrian people. So I want to look at this very quickly. This is the Syria Regional program for USAID final report 2020 and note in the small print at the bottom that “USAID and now the British government siphoned their funding not directly to the White Helmets but through Chemonics  International.

And let’s have a look. So this was since 2013 to 2020. I’ve circled in Red. So 46% of the funding, 25.2 million went to the supply of heavy equipment for the White Helmets. So their claims that they don’t have heavy equipment available are false, and so therefore one has to ask: Where are the millions going??? and let’s just do a quick recap of what I’ve talked about. So, Blinken talked about 100 million [part of it via USAID], and we also have to remember USAID’s connections to the CIA. Germany 30 million Euros. So, 31.7 million dollars USAID, 85 million plus an extra 5 million for the White Helmets, Denmark in collaboration with the UK 1.9 million, the UK FCDO about 6 million. Choose Love $4.8 million. DEC that I mentioned that the King Charles is going to be donating to 72 million dollars,  Qatar at least 10 million. So the total is 316 million so far.

And as I said I’ve only scratched the surface. I’ve not looked into the EU, the UN pledges, etc…, and the White Helmets 20 million minimum. So their annual budget is 35 million. They’re getting that anyway one assumes, and here we have 20 million on top for 3 000 volunteers that already have all the equipment they need to dig people out. So why is this money needed. And just a quick reminder from John Pilger award-winning journalist/ film maker as he said: “I think in 2016 or 2017, the White Helmets are complete propaganda construct”, and he also mentioned they’re working alongside Nusra Front, which is Al-Qaeda in Syria.

NOTE: Avaaz is U.S.-based nonprofit organization launched in January 2007 that promotes global activism on issues such as climate change, human rights, animal rights, corruption, poverty, and conflict. In 2012, The Guardian referred to Avaaz as “the globe’s largest and most powerful online activist network

 

 

 

 

Transcript with Time-Stamps:

I was actually talking to Corey Morningstar
0:03
um who put me on track to investigate
0:06
the White Helmets so I think she wrote
0:07
about them originally in 2014 one year
0:11
after they were established by British
0:13
Military Intelligence operative James
0:15
Le Mesurier
0:17
um employed by Analysis Research and
0:20
knowledge Arc group that’s headed up by
0:23
very probably an MI6 operative Alistair
0:26
Harris who’s operating in a number of
0:30
countries around the world on behalf of
0:32
the British government
0:33
and we were both talking about the fact
0:36
that we’re we’re suddenly
0:38
post-earthquake seeing wall to wall
0:41
propaganda
0:42
resurrecting the White Helmet brand that
0:45
of course had been extensively damaged
0:48
by Syrian civilian accusations including
0:53
um theft, murder, torture, detention, being
0:56
embedded with armed groups dominated by
0:59
Al-Qaeda, organ trafficking, child
1:01
abduction for
1:03
um presenting their chemical weapon
1:07
um staged events and of course they were
1:09
proven to be staged after the Douma 2018
1:12
chemical attack when the OPCW dissident
1:16
inspectors who were on the ground
1:17
pointed out that that the events at the
1:22
Medical Center in Douma were staged as I
1:25
had already confirmed visiting the
1:28
Medical Center days after the alleged
1:30
attack so the brand itself had been we
1:33
thought irreparably damaged they tried
1:36
to revive it in Ukraine the White
1:38
elmets go to Ukraine that didn’t really
1:41
work in fact it really worked against
1:44
them because people then started to
1:47
affiliate them with the Nazi elements in
1:50
Ukraine particularly with the
1:51
mercenaries going from the northeast of
1:53
Syria
1:54
into Ukraine to fight alongside the Azov
1:58
and Aidar battalions and also of course
2:01
more recently on the influx of Isis from
2:04
Syria into Ukraine to to fight alongside
2:08
the Ukrainian forces such as they are
2:10
now but suddenly after the earthquakes
2:14
or the two earthquakes major earthquakes
2:16
that hit Syria on the 6th of February
2:20
we’ve seen uh I mean it’s like Groundhog
2:23
Day we’ve gone back to the 2013
2:25
promotional material wall to wall across
2:29
all media Outlets who are the White
2:31
Helmets the same kind of copy paste
2:34
Syria Campaign narratives that were
2:37
produced back then who are they
2:39
volunteers three thousand volunteers
2:41
saving 115
2:43
000 lives in Syria etc etc but what I
2:46
want to focus on today is the fact that
2:49
that
2:50
um here in Syria we see that the West
2:53
collectively and their allies in Israel
2:57
and the Gulf States namely Qatar and
2:59
Saudi Arabia are capitalizing on the
3:02
humanitarian tragedy on the earthquake
3:04
to effectively revive the military war
3:08
against the Syrian government I
3:09
mentioned attacks carried out by ISIS
3:13
um the Western media is portraying
3:15
attacks by Assad personally of course
3:18
that’s what they’ve always done against
3:20
terrorist positions in the Northwest and
3:23
reality those so-called attacks have
3:26
been defensive
3:28
um campaigns to prevent the advance of
3:31
the Armed groups dominated by Al-Qaeda
3:33
known to be a U.S admitted to be a U.S
3:36
asset inside Syria and so the White
3:40
Helmet Resurrection in my view is part
3:43
of this drive to re-arm re-equip
3:47
refinance the armed groups in the
3:49
Northwest to lead a military campaign
3:52
alongside ISIS in the Northeast Central
3:56
Syria and the southeast
4:00
um and bolstered by the latest Israeli
4:03
aggression on the 19th of February
4:04
around 1am when they attacked
4:07
um various sites in Syria including a
4:10
number of sites in Damascus killing five
4:12
Syrian civilians
4:14
um injuring dozens more damaging the
4:17
Damascus Citadel
4:19
archaeological institutes destroying
4:21
historical documents by UNESCO heritage
4:24
site in Sweida to the south of uh
4:27
Damascus 300 kilometers away from the
4:30
U.S military base in al Tanf so
4:34
um what I’m trying to to say today to
4:37
people that are not aware of who the
4:39
White Helmets are and who may be getting
4:42
pulled into funding the various
4:45
um donation sites that are um associated
4:49
with the White Helmets I want to try and
4:51
point out how this uptake in funding has
4:55
come as a result of the earthquake
4:58
um so in other words the earthquake is
4:59
being exploited by the West while of
5:03
course they’re maintaining to a large
5:04
degree the majority of the sanctions
5:07
um against the bulk of the Syrian
5:09
population the 80 living under the
5:12
Syrian government protection
5:15
um
5:16
so first of all let’s have a look uh
5:18
I’ll run through quite quickly and I’ve
5:20
only really taken
5:23
um a small percentage of the funding
5:25
campaigns that are out there linked to
5:27
the White Helmets so first of all we see
5:30
secretary Anthony Blinken today I’m
5:32
announcing plans for additional 100
5:34
million dollars to provide life-saving
5:36
Aid in Turkey and Syria and I have to
5:39
say also when they mentioned Syria
5:41
they’re talking about Northwest Syria
5:42
they’re talking about the pocket of
5:44
Syria that is controlled by Al-Qaeda or
5:48 Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham  and Abu Muhammad al-Julani
5:51
the head of HTS who by the way
5:56
refused the Convoy of 14 trucks of
5:59
humanitarian Aid that came from Damascus
6:02
through southern Idlib and after a week
6:05
of negotiation between Syrian Arab
6:08
Crescent the UAE and the armed groups
6:10
dominated by al-Julani put out a
6:13
statement saying that he wouldn’t
6:15
legitimize the internationally
6:18
recognized Syrian government and he
6:19
wouldn’t accept the aid activists on the
6:22
ground told me he was asking for ten
6:25
thousand dollars per truck for it to
6:27
enter Idlib to bring Aid to the Syrian
6:29
people under their occupation
6:31
so Blinken basically goes on this is all
6:35
part of this kind of
6:37
um rebranding or cleaning up of the
6:41
White Helmet brand so here he he states
6:43
that he’s honored to meet
6:44
representatives of the Syria Civil
6:46
Defense of course we know there are not
6:48
the Syria Civil Defense the real Syria
6:51
Civil Defense was established in 1953 in
6:54
Syria and it’s the only recognized Syria
6:56
Civil Defense by the International
6:58
Organization for Civil Defense in Geneva
7:02
um added to
7:05
um the U.S so Blinken talks about 100
7:07
million which will be distributed part
7:09
of it through USAID we have Germany
7:13
um offering 30 million euros for NGOs we
7:18
assume among those
7:20
um will be the White Helmets in the
7:22
Northwest again controlled by Al-Qaeda
7:24
Samantha Power who heads up
7:27
um USAID under the Biden Administration
7:30
is talking look at the second part of
7:34
her tweet 85 million in funding and of
7:37
course she had a conversation with right
7:39
Salah the head of the White Helmets and
7:42
so we know that much of this funding
7:44
will in effect go to the White Helmets
7:48
the white helmets putting out there
7:49
thank you tweet to Samantha Power The
7:52
USAID Bureau for humanitarian assistance
7:54
lead photographed alongside a white
7:58
helmet
7:59
management and I have to say all of this
8:02
money to our knowledge is coming into
8:04
bank accounts in Istanbul that are
8:07
managed by the three directors of the
8:09
White Helmets
8:14
Mustafa and of course we would like to
8:17
have some transparency on how this money
8:20
is going to be distributed into the
8:22
Northwest which as I keep saying is
8:24
under the control of al-Qaeda again from
8:27
Samantha Powers so she very kindly adds
8:30
on an additional 5 million to assist
8:33
with rescue equipment fuel for
8:35
life-saving operations and crucial
8:37
support for ambulance networks we’ll
8:39
come on to that later
8:42
um interesting here I just want to point
8:43
out look at the uniform and The Branding
8:46
of the White Helmets we’re going very
8:48
much towards
8:50
um kind of EU UK fire Brigade insignia
8:54
and notice of course that everything is
8:57
in English despite the fact that they
8:59
work in an Arabic speaking environment
9:03
um Ambassador Linda Thomas Greenfield
9:05
the United States Representative for the
9:08
US is talking about the decision to open
9:11
two additional border crossings so again
9:13
this is related in my view to the uptick
9:16
in um military support for the armed
9:19
groups uh and the Revival of the
9:21
military campaign to topple the Syrian
9:25
government while Syria itself is at its
9:27
most vulnerable Qatar which of course
9:31
originally put in around 3 billion into
9:33
supporting regime change in Syria from
9:36
2011 onwards and whose media was
9:39
responsible
9:40
um for much of the propaganda that
9:43
demonized the Syrian government now
9:46
interesting that they do actually state
9:49
that they’re going to support the
9:50
operations of the White Helmet but
9:53
they’re a little bit Coy about
9:55
mentioning
9:56
um the amount
9:58
um they say that basically they are
10:02
fundraising 10 million dollars and they
10:05
set aside one million but we can assume
10:08
um that an awful lot more will be coming
10:09
in from Qatar and Saudi Arabia the
10:12
Canadian government will provide an
10:14
initial 10 million in Aid to Turkey and
10:16
Syria
10:18
um and Denmark alongside the UK uh uh
10:24
krona 20 million to the Syria civil
10:26
defense so again going directly to the
10:29
White Helmets
10:31
um and I think that’s around
10:35
um 2 million I think uh Sterling and a
10:39
little bit more than that in dollars
10:42
um the UK government not to be outdone
10:45
commit to additional uh funding to the
10:47
White Helmets to support search and
10:50
rescue in Syria uh the White Helmets
10:52
thanked the British delegation which was
10:55
headed up by the right honorable Andrew
10:57
Mitchell who’s the Minister of State for
10:59
development and Africa of course he was
11:03
honored to meet the white helmet Heroes
11:04
involved in search and rescue operations
11:06
in Northwest Syria
11:08
um they’ve released an additional
11:11
additional 4.3 million pounds
11:15
um the UK foreign office funds the white
11:18
helmets year on year 2.2 million minimum
11:22
and I believe that 4.3 million has just
11:25
been increased um to 5 million I’ll do a
11:29
summary of all the funding so far at the
11:32
end but then let’s get on to what I call
11:35
the kind of Billionaire Complex
11:37
um
11:38
influencer cartel Choose Love which was
11:41
previously help refugees has had a
11:45
target of
11:47
4.164 million to raise
11:50
um for the white helmet I recommend
11:52
everybody goes to the UK column article
11:54
White Helmets and Halal systems the
11:57
grotesque militarization of
11:59
humanitarianism in Syria where you will
12:01
find a lot of information about Choose
12:04
Love or help refugees as it was
12:07
previously this rebranding of these ngos
12:10
or the members of the NGO complex is
12:13
very common when their reputation is
12:15
tarnished the the rebranding happens
12:18
just as of course it did with al-Qaeda
12:21
in Syria multiple times then we have a
12:25
AVAAZ
12:26
um
12:27
instrumental in funding uh the the war
12:32
campaign against the Syrian government
12:34
from 2011 onwards I mentioned Danny
12:36
Abdul day and before
12:38
um if people remember back in I think it
12:41
was 2012 of ours had the smuggle hope
12:44
for Syria Campaign which raised over 2
12:47
million to equip the so-called citizen
12:50
journalists who produced much of the
12:53
early propaganda before the white
12:54
helmets took over so the latest of ours
12:57
campaign I also want to draw your
12:59
attention to the language that’s being
13:01
used by the major and by these funding
13:03
campaigns it’s doomsday in Turkey and
13:06
Syria I’ve seen this across multiple
13:08
media utlets
13:10
again pushing the very familiar tagline
13:14
on the White Helmets one brave group of
13:16
Syrian volunteers who’s already
13:18
responding literally digging people out
13:20
of trouble with bare hands pay attention
13:22
to that sentence
13:24
the white helmets are the best hope for
13:26
people in parts of Syria will they admit
13:28
they omit the fact that it’s the part of
13:30
Syria that contains the majority of
13:32
al-Qaeda and Affiliated
13:35
um armed terrorist groups including the
13:37
Uyghurs from China, Chechens, Saudi
13:39
Arabians Afghanistani,
13:42
um Turkistanis Etc
13:44
um and then they are crying out for
13:46
rescue supplies fuel an emergency
13:48
shelter and our movement could provide
13:51
it in hours that’s interesting a vars
13:53
could provide
13:55
um materials for the white helmets in
13:58
the Northwest now you’ll also be seeing
14:01
and that’s where I I really want to draw
14:03
people’s attention to this you’re going
14:04
to be seeing a lot of images like this
14:07
white helmets holding children Aloft a
14:10
lot of cheering and shouting and a lot
14:13
of cameras a lot of mobile phones and
14:17
very clean children and children that
14:19
don’t look remotely traumatized by six
14:22
now ten days under the rubble
14:25
um you’re going to see a lot of that
14:27
don’t please be fooled by it the real
14:29
theory of civil defense the Syrian Arab
14:32
Crescent and the various emergency
14:33
relief teams inside proper Syria are too
14:37
busy actually doing their work to to
14:40
pose for photo opportunities
14:44
um but note here the White Helmets thank
14:45
of ours then you have
14:49
um what’s this one the voices project
14:51
USA which is
14:53
um effectively Syria Campaign Syria
14:55
campaign established by Eamon as fari
14:58
um a UK based uh Syrian uh oil Baron uh
15:03
investigated by the serious uh fraud
15:07
um organization
15:09
um that looked into his funding of the
15:12
conservative party under Theresa May
15:16
um and this is the American version of
15:18
the Syria Campaign but the Syria
15:20
campaign have their own funding
15:23
um campaign going again showing very
15:26
emotive pictures of the white helmet
15:29
GoFundMe that shut down multiple
15:32
fundraisers for people inside Syria
15:35
under the government protection but
15:37
however managed to raise a hundred
15:39
thousand to support the white helmets
15:41
riots
15:43
ahead of the White Helmets was actually
15:45
allowed to start a funding campaign with
15:47
Gulf on me it wasn’t shut down the mayor
15:50
of London said it can’t in Trafalgar
15:52
Square City Hall is assisting the Syrian
15:54
community and creating Syria house a
15:57
space a space where they can pay their
15:59
respects and we even have the royal
16:01
family involved in Trafalgar Square the
16:04
king looks very
16:06
sorry
16:08
um Syrian Community tent where members
16:10
of the Syrian Community can come
16:11
together to support those who need it
16:13
most and guess who’s on the left of King
16:16
Charles that’s Eamon asvari who I just
16:19
mentioned who has
16:21
um pretentions to the throne of Syria
16:24
um the king himself has committed um to
16:28
making a donation to the dec appeal that
16:32
has raised over 60 million for Northwest
16:35
Syria
16:37
um mud now this is where it gets kind of
16:39
interesting so here we’ve got an
16:41
interview on uh Le de voir so on this
16:45
interview I’ll translate from French
16:47
we’ve heard the cries of people under
16:49
the rubble but they said we don’t have
16:51
equipment to save them that’s the white
16:54
helmet and here you have one of the
16:57
primary members of the white helmets
16:58
talking about the white helmet needs
17:01
fuel search and rescue equipment heavy
17:04
Vehicles spare parts for vehicles tires
17:06
for vehicles now remember how many
17:08
millions are being pledged to this
17:10
organization of Less Than 3 000
17:14
volunteers now in amongst the media
17:16
campaign I found these photographs of
17:19
the lack of heavy machinery while the
17:23
white helmets are allegedly digging
17:25
people out from under the rubble and
17:27
then let’s have a look back at uh this
17:30
is uh the white helmet YouTube channel
17:33
in adlib 15.2 subscribers it’s been
17:37
running since
17:38
2013. and if you can play the video Mike
17:41
I just want to show from one year ago
17:45
amount of Machinery that the white
17:46
helmets hard available to them
17:53
and at one point that I want to make
17:55
during this video is the white helmets
17:58
operate with an annual budget from their
18:02
various sponsors in the west and in the
18:05
Gulf States and Israel
18:07
um on 35 million 35 million per year the
18:11
real serious civil defense 10 000
18:13
volunteers across 80 percent of the
18:16
population of Syria have
18:18
um an annual budget of 50 000. while
18:23
um the white helmets have all of this
18:25
equipment and while the white helmets
18:26
had in fact stolen equipment from the
18:28
rails of Syria civil defense when they
18:31
occupied areas where the real Syria
18:33
civil defense operated
18:36
um in Aleppo for example I spoke to one
18:40
of the captains of the Syria civil
18:42
defense the real one and he told me that
18:45
for 44
18:46
um collapsed buildings they only had
18:49
seven machines to actually help them dig
18:52
people out from under the rubble so this
18:55
gives you an indication
18:57
um and a comparison between the two
18:59
organizations one funded by the West in
19:02
order to destabilize their country and
19:05
criminalize the Syrian government the
19:07
other the genuine Syria civil defense
19:09
that is working for the Syrian people
19:11
so I want to look at this very quickly
19:14
um this is the Syria Regional program
19:16
for usaid final report 2020 and note in
19:20
the small print at the bottom that USAID
19:22
and now the British government siphoned
19:25
their funding not directly to the White
19:27
Helmets but through Kimonics uh
19:30
International
19:31
and let’s have a look so this was since
19:34
2013 to 2020 I’ve circled in Red so 40
19:41
46 of the funding
19:44
25.2 million went to the supply of heavy
19:49
equipment for the White Helmets so these
19:52
claims that they don’t have heavy
19:54
equipment available are false and so
19:57
therefore one has to ask where are the
19:59
millions going and let’s just do a quick
20:02
recap of what I’ve talked about so
20:04
blinken talked about 100 million part of
20:06
it via usaid
20:09
um and we also have to remember USAID’s
20:12
connections to the CIA Germany 30
20:16
million Euros so
20:18
31.7 million dollars usaid 85 million
20:22
plus an extra 5 million for the White
20:24
Helmets Denmark in collaboration with
20:27
the UK 1.9 million the UK foreign office
20:31
with think we’re up to about 6 million
20:33
now Choose Love in dollars Choose Love
20:37
4.8 million
20:39
um DEC that I mentioned that the King
20:42
Charles is going to be
20:43
um donating to 72 million dollars Qatar
20:48
at least 10 million
20:50
um so the total is 316 million so far
20:53
and as I said I’ve only scratched the
20:55
surface I’ve not looked into the EU of
20:58
the UN pledges etc and the White Helmets
21:01
20 million minimum so their annual
21:05
budget is 35 million they’re getting
21:07
that anyway one assumes and here we have
21:10
20 million on top for 3 000 volunteers
21:13
that already have all the equipment they
21:15
need to dig people out so why is this
21:17
money needed and just a quick reminder
21:20
from
21:22
um John Pilger award-winning journalist
21:24
and filmmaker as he said I think in 2016
21:28
or 17 the White Helmets are complete
21:32
propaganda construct and he also
21:35
mentioned they’re working alongside
21:37
Nusra Front which is Al-Qaeda in
21:40
Syria
