MOCKINGBIRD MEDIA: ISIS Nuclear Threat Echoed by Misleading Hostage John Cantlie

21st Century Wire says…

British journalist John Cantlie, said to be held captive by ISIS since 2012, once again turns up pushing ISIS propaganda - this time as a published writer in the group’s stylized online terror magazine Dabiq…

Remember back in February, we reported here at 21WIRE, how Cantlie’s video message ‘From Inside Aleppo‘ was an effort to ‘humanize’ ISIS and its future generation of fighters. The decidedly pro-ISIS video was heavily promoted by the intelligence group SITE and another media arm of ISIS, Al Hayat Media Center.

Mainstream pundits maintain that ‘Cantlie’ is under duress and might be forced into operating as a reporter for ISIS. However, since Cantlie’s prominent role in the YouTube video series “Lend Me Your Ears,” critics have been dubious of the Cantlie’s links to USAID journo James Foley - one of the as of yet, forensically unproven deaths at the hands of the estranged terror persona Jihadi John.

The Terror Videodrome

Although Cantile is stated as being in captivity for nearly 3 years now, in recent interviews with apparent ISIS militants, he appears calm, collected and clearly focused, in a slick documentary style war report. The video seemed to polarize the public with its conflicting perspectives, giving you the feeling it was a daring look inside an ongoing war-zone. However, as Cantlie interviews apparent ISIS militants, you notice the cleanliness of their uniforms, as they hold firearms that very well could be stage props, along with their very relaxed demeanor. 

Nothing in the video itself appears to be authentic, as Cantlie, fails to disclose the true nature of the West’s role in inciting terror in the region, through its various training facilities and arms trafficking to so-called “moderate” rebels.

The highly deceptive propaganda video entitled, “From Inside Aleppo,” cast the rise of ISIS as a paramilitary anti-government, anti-Western uprising, similar to what we were first told during the Arab Spring back in 2011. Of course, we’ve known for some time that both the Arab Spring and the growth of ISIS were brought to fruition through disastrous Western foreign policy objectives.

Like with alleged ISIS hostage Kayla Mueller’s video, Cantlie deceptively lays blame on Syria’s Assad (a policy stance which supports US, UK and Israeli foreign policy directives) and also blames “Western aggressors” – while subliminally trying to push a sympathetic viewpoint of ISIS linked rebel fighters.

Casting a Cloud

In Cantlie’s latest piece entitled “The Perfect Storm,” the appears as a writer for the terror group ISIS, outlining a hypothetical scenario that the United States is in danger of an attack, claiming militants could smuggle in catastrophic nuclear material via the Mexican border.

The UK’s Telegraph released some of Cantlie’s latest ISIS report for Dabiq and here is an excerpt of the propaganda piece below:

“Perhaps such a scenario is far-fetched but it’s the sum of all fears for Western intelligence agencies and it’s infinitely more possible today than it was just one year ago,” writes Cantlie.

“And if not a nuke, what about a few thousand tons of ammonium nitrate explosive? That’s easy enough to make.”

As this new threat is being built up by media engineers linked to ISIS, we should also consider that policy planners inside the Pentagon would also benefit from an ‘invisible’ threat creeping over the United States Southern borders – as it would validate future undeclared conflicts waged in the Middle East and Africa.

Zerohedge recently weighed in on the ISIS agitprop in the midst of the deceptive report from Cantlie:

“One can, of course, debate just how much the West “failed to spot the emergence of ISIS” considering it was not only the CIA which initially trained the terrorist organization in Jordan in 2012, but according to recently declassified Pentagon documents, the US was well aware the outcome its attempt to overthrow Syria’s Assad would have on the region, in the process “creating” ISIS, aka al Qaeda 2.0.”

As previously mentioned here at 21WIRE, in April a nameless and highly suspicious ‘news story’ appeared on the “Corruption Chronicles Blog” section of the website Judicial Watch, which claimed “ISIS Camp a Few Miles from Texas, Mexican Authorities Confirm.” The website claims that ‘an ISIS base’ exists approximately 8 miles from the US-Texas border in an area known as ‘Anapra’ just west of Ciudad Juárez in the Mexican state of Chihuahua.

As it turned out, the story was a fraud, as there was no evidence to prove the bold claims from Judicial Watch. Mainstream news agencies quickly backed away from the report as authorities revealed that their was no verifiable ISIS threat, denying the allegations of an terror base over the border.

And just like that the story disappeared – until Cantlie’s new report breathed life into the hyped threat…

The twisted plot laid out by Cantlie recalls the fear inducing documentary Countdown to Zero.

Here’s an excerpt from an article featured on Global Research from August of 2010, that dissects the clever power-play of propaganda at work regarding the threat of nuclear war worldwide:

“The film relies on conventional geopolitics to whip up conventional audiences into another conventional state of panic.”

“Some of the film’s talking heads promoted, engaged in and/or profit from the “War on Terror,” which critics deem a euphemism for Western resource wars in the Middle East.”

Although, Cantlie’s latest media stunt has a much smaller budget than the film Countdown to Zero, one could argue the geopolitical ramifications are the same. 

Additionally, its important to keep in mind that Cantlie’s most recent new release for ISIS is also timed in the aftermath of the false ISIS threat out of Garland, Texas and the likely provocateured rally set to take place in Phoenix, Arizona today.

Last September, the Daily Mail disclosed that Cantlie had participated in a charity bike run in 2008 for the organization Sentebale. The charitable group was founded by Prince Harry, which appears to have funding ties to USAID, through its Letsema program located in Lesotho, South Africa.

Given Cantlie’s uncanny ability to stay alive “inside ISIS” and his affiliation to those in high places Syrian conflict - is it really that hard to believe he’s a stage-managed media persona pushing Western policy objectives? 

Cantlie’s new message to the West comes, just as the Al-Qaeda affiliate group Al-Nusra Front calls for renewed attacks against the Syrian regime and its alliesnot Western targets…
