The Atrocities Prevention Board\u2019s only use was as a fig leaf for a policy that had caused the atrocities. And the cause of those atrocities is buried inside Directive 11.<\/p>\n<p>With Obama\u2019s typical use of technicalities to avoid transparency, Directive 11 was used to guide policy in the Middle East without being officially submitted. It is possible that it will never be submitted. And yet the Directive 11 <a href=\"http:\/\/www.newyorker.com\/magazine\/2011\/05\/02\/the-consequentialist\">group was described<\/a> as \u201cjust finishing its work\u201d when the Arab Spring began.<\/p>\n<p>That is certainly one way of looking at it.<\/p>\n<p>Directive 11 brought together activists and operatives at multiple agencies to come up with a \u201ctailored\u201d approach for regime change in each country. The goal was to \u201cmanage\u201d the political transitions. It tossed aside American national security interests by insisting that Islamist regimes would be equally committed to fighting terrorism and cooperating with Israel. Its greatest gymnastic feat may have been arguing that the best way to achieve political stability in the region was through regime change.<\/p>\n<p>What <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2011\/02\/17\/world\/middleeast\/17diplomacy.html\">little we know<\/a> about the resulting classified 18-page report is that it used euphemisms to call for aiding Islamist takeovers in parts of the Middle East. Four countries were targeted. Of those four, we only know for certain that Egypt and Yemen were on the list. But we do know for certain the outcome.<\/p>\n<p>Egypt fell to the Muslim Brotherhood, which collaborated with Al Qaeda, Hamas and Iran, before being undone by a counterrevolution. Yemen is currently controlled by Iran\u2019s Houthi terrorists and Al Qaeda.<\/p>\n<p>According to a <em>New York Times<\/em> story, Obama\u2019s Directive 11 agenda appeared to resemble Che or Castro as he \u201cpressed his advisers to study popular uprisings in Latin America, Eastern Europe and Southeast Asia to determine which ones worked and which did not.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The story also noted that he \u201cis drawn to Indonesia, where he spent several years as a child, which ousted its longtime leader, Suharto, in 1998.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The coup against Mubarak with its coordination of liberals, Islamists and the military did strongly resemble what happened in Indonesia. The most ominous similarity may be that the Muslim mobs in Indonesia targeted the Chinese, many of whom are Christians, while the Muslim mobs in Egypt targeted Coptic Christians.<\/p>\n<p>Both were talented groups that were disproportionately successful because they lacked the traditional Islamic hostility to education, integrity and achievement. Islamist demagogues had succeeded in associating them with the regime and promoted attacks on them as part of the anti-regime protests.<\/p>\n<p>Chinese stores were looted and thousands of Chinese women were raped by rampaging Muslims. Just as in Egypt, the protesters and their media allies spread the claim that these atrocities committed by Muslim protesters were the work of the regime\u2019s secret police. That remains the official story today.<\/p>\n<p>Suharto\u2019s fall paved the way for the rise of the Prosperous Justice Party, which was founded a few months after his resignation and has become one of the largest parties in the Indonesian parliament. PJP was set up by the Muslim Brotherhood\u2019s local arm in Indonesia.<\/p>\n<p>His successor, Bacharuddin Jusuf Habibie, was more explicitly Islamist than Suharto and his Association of Muslim Intellectuals (ICMI) conducted a campaign against Christians, Hindus and Buddhists. It helped purge non-Muslims from government while Islamizing the government and Indonesia\u2019s key institutions.<\/p>\n<p>Habibie had been the Chairman of ICMI and ICMI\u2019s Islamists played a key role in moving Suharto out and moving him in. It was obvious why Obama would have considered the Islamization of Indonesia and the purge of Christians under the guise of democratic political change to be a fine example for Egypt.<\/p>\n<p>While we don\u2019t know the full contents of Directive 11 and unless a new administration decides to open the vaults of the old regime, we may never know. But we do know a good deal about the results.<\/p>\n<p>In its own way, PSD-10 tells us something about PSD-11.<\/p>\n<p>Obama\u2019s insistence that human rights be made a core national security interest paved the way for political and military interventions on behalf of Islamists. Obama had never been interested in human rights; his record of pandering to the world\u2019s worst genocide plotters and perpetrators from Iran to Turkey to Sudan made that clear. When he said \u201chuman rights\u201d, Obama really meant \u201cIslamist power\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>That was why Obama refused to intervene when the Muslim Brotherhood conducted real genocide in Sudan, but did interfere in Libya on behalf of the Brotherhood using a phony claim of genocide.<\/p>\n<p>Positioning Samantha Power in the Office of Multilateral Affairs and Human Rights at the National Security Council was part of the process that made over the NSC from national security to servicing a progressive wish list of Islamist terrorist groups that were to be transformed into national governments.<\/p>\n<p>Power, along with Gayle Smith and Dennis Ross, led the Directive 11 project.<\/p>\n<p>Secret proceedings were used to spawn regime change infrastructure. Some of these tools had official names, such as \u201cThe Office of The Special Coordinator For Middle East Transitions\u201d which currently reports directly to former ambassador Anne Patterson who told Coptic Christians not to protest against Morsi. After being driven out of the country by angry mobs over her support for the Muslim Brotherhood tyranny, she was promoted to Assistant Secretary of State for Near Eastern Affairs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe Office\u201d is still focused on \u201coutreach to emergent political, economic and social forces in Egypt, Tunisia, and Libya\u201d even though counterrevolutions have pushed out Islamists in Egypt and Tunisia, while Libya is in the middle of a bloody civil war in which an alliance of the Muslim Brotherhood and Al Qaeda controls the nation\u2019s capital.<\/p>\n<p>But even as Morsi\u2019s abuses of power were driving outraged Egyptians into the streets, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.investigativeproject.org\/4056\/exclusive-deputy-of-banned-suicide-bomb-endorsing\">Gayle Smith<\/a>, one of the three leaders of Directive 11, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.breitbart.com\/national-security\/2013\/06\/26\/ipt-exclusive-banned-clerics-outspoken-deputy-visits-white-house\/\">reached out to the \u201cInternational Union of Muslim Scholars<\/a>\u201d, a Muslim Brotherhood group that supported <a href=\"http:\/\/www.globalmbwatch.com\/international-union-of-muslim-scholars\/\">terrorism against American soldiers<\/a> in Iraq and which was now looking for American support for its Islamist terrorist brigades in the Syrian Civil War.<\/p>\n<p>The men and women responsible for Directive 11 were making it clear that they had learned nothing.<\/p>\n<p>Directive 11 ended up giving us the Islamic State through its Arab Spring. PSD-11\u2019s twisted claim that regional stability could only be achieved through Islamist regime change tore apart the region and turned it into a playground for terrorists. ISIS is simply the biggest and toughest of the terror groups that were able to thrive in the environment of violent civil wars created by Obama\u2019s Directive 11.<\/p>\n<p>During the Arab Spring protests, Egyptian Foreign Minister Ahmed Aboul Gheit had told Hillary Clinton that his government could not hand over power to the Muslim Brotherhood. \u201cMy daughter gets to go out at night. And, God damn it, I\u2019m not going to turn this country over to people who will turn back the clock on her rights.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>But that was exactly what Hillary Clinton and Obama were after. And they got it. Countless women were raped in Egypt. Beyond Egypt, Hillary and Obama\u2019s policy saw Yazidi women actually sold into slavery.<\/p>\n<p>Directive 11 codified the left\u2019s dirty alliance with the Muslim Brotherhood into our foreign policy. Its support for Islamist takeovers paved the way for riots and civil wars culminating in the violence that birthed ISIS and covered the region in blood.<\/p>\n<p>And it remains secret to this day.<\/p>\n<p>___<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/258089\/directive-11-obamas-secret-islamist-plan-daniel-greenfield\">http:\/\/www.frontpagemag.com\/fpm\/258089\/directive-11-obamas-secret-islamist-plan-daniel-greenfield<\/a><\/p>\n<\/article>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Behind the rise of ISIS and the Middle East\u2019s civil wars is Directive 11.
