RUMMY: 'We’re going to take out 7 countries in 5 years-Starting with Iraq & Syria-Ending With Iran'

Syria is on the neocon hit list.
(and we KNOW what that means)

“‘Oh, it’s worse than that,’ he said, holding up a memo on his desk. ‘Here’s the paper from the Office of the Secretary of Defense (then Donald Rumsfeld) outlining the strategy. We’re going to take out seven countries in five years.’ And he named them, starting with Iraq and Syria and ending with Iran.”


While Clark doesn’t name the other four countries, he has mentioned in televised interviews that the hit list included Lebanon, Libya, Somalia and Sudan.

Doesn't matter who is President or Secretary of State. The "PNAC" is the operative plan.

Syria is one of the 7. Think the CIA might be behind what's going on?
They certainly know how.
