The US state funds Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States, which all fund al-Qaeda. The US state uses al-Qaeda for false-flag operations to foment sectarian conflict to break up states, as in Iraq, Libya, Syria and Iran.

The US state also uses criminal gangs. Using Pakistan, Turkey, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf states, it runs the drugs route from Afghanistan through Turkey and the Balkans to Western Europe and the USA, often using NATO planes.
The CIA runs the top Afghan and Pakistani drug traders. Dennis Dayle said: “In my 30-year history in US Drug Enforcement Administration and related agencies, the major targets of my investigations almost invariably turned out to be working for the CIA.”

Yes, Guy Cybershy, you are sort of right, I think.
Orwell's novel tries but cannot capture the enormity of,
for example, the horror of Stalin's reign of terror; and no
literary work can adequately capture the nature of life in
a wrecked place like Iraq or Afghanistan. John Pilger
uses Nineteen Eighty-Four as a reference point to
impress upon readers the cynicism of the Obama
regime's defence of its position; however, the literary
allusion has the unintended effect of further removing
what the US is saying and doing from reality and aligning
it with the world of the imagination. US presidents are
already so heavily mediated by TV and their spin-
doctors that they have come to possess a kind of
fictional identity, which merges with their 'real' existence.
Pilger is trying to replace the narrative Obama and his
image-makers created with another image, Oceania; but
it is one that has already been used for another
purpose, viz, the undermining of sympathies felt by naive
Western intellectuals for the USSR in the immediate
post-war period.

I agree with you, John, but ...

Lawyer Obama's double-talking words are lawyering mystifications, blatant falsehoods, & more mystifications.
I wouldn't expect anything else.

But surely your brief quote laying all the blame on the Caspian oil pipeline is a profound distortion also.
It could result in more mystification because you completely leave out the glaring behemoth of Israeli Zionist State expansionism.

"Exodus" the blockbuster movie!
"God gave this land to me."
From the Tigris to the Euphrates.
You must remember this; Zionism is still Zionism.

You say; "Even Obama's mystification of the 9/11 attacks as justification for his war is false. More than two months before the twin towers were attacked, the former Pakistani diplomat Niaz Naik was told by the Bush administration that a US military assault would take place by mid-October. The Taliban regime in Kabul, which the Clinton administration had secretly supported, was no longer regarded as "stable" enough to ensure US control over oil and gas pipelines to the Caspian Sea. It had to go."

But ...you leave it there.

The Caspian oil pipeline is part of it, but the pipeline's big job is to provide the cover for the Zionist Expansionist State agenda to destroy Iran & its culture.
The Zionist cabal has already succeeded in destroying Iraq using American booty & blood.

From you, this a significant lapse.

Some not so widely known facts:

"... it was revealed in 1996 that in 1949, Orwell offered to provide a secret Foreign Office Propaganda Unit linked to the intelligence services with the names of writers who could be trusted to write anti-communist propaganda, and also with the names of writers and journalists whom he regarded as being `crypto-communist' and `fellow-travellers'. This unit had been set up by the Attlee government in response to the “developing communist threat to the whole fabric of Western civilisation”. Well-known writers, such as Bertrand Russell, Stephen Spender and Arthur Koestler were employed to disseminate misinformation about the USSR, the East European Peoples' Democracies and the communist Parties of Western Europe. Papers release also show that the IRD (Information Research Department) actively promoted the foreign language publication of Animal Farm in places such as Saudi Arabia, where anti-imperialist activity was threatening the oil revenues of imperialism.

...
"... Orwell's lack of understanding of politics, combined with his rabid anti-communism, meant that he was trying to get Animal Farm published in 1943, just as the future of humanity was being decided and the USSR was sacrificing all at Stalingrad. Publisher after publisher rejected it, until the war ended and the book's usefulness as a tool in the coming Cold War was recognised. Writing in The Guardian in August 1995, Stuart Jeffries says that although “many of those who read the book were right-wingers eager for a novel which appeared to show an ex-socialist recanting his beliefs. . . the book was chiefly aimed at the faithful, those who believed that the Soviet Union was the way and the truth”.

We will take a common day example of the curse of
Heroin. As it is normally believed that Herion like
Terrorism popped out of blue from Pakistan Tribal
Areas/Afghanistan. It is generally believed that simple
tribal men and war lords are only responsible for
menace of Heroin but never told the link between
Afghan War, CIA, Heroin, BCCI and finance for US
Stringers made by private MNCs.

Heroin is prepared from morphine (extracted from
opium) by boiling it with acetic anhydride, and then
using a process that involves hydrochloric acid,
strychnine, and caffeine. The most essential chemical
for Heroin (i.e. acetic anhydride) is produced only in
West, No Muslim country has any plant for producing
acetic anhydride. Recently its import to Afghanistan
through Karachi Afghan transit route under flag of
NATO/US since 9/11 has increased exponentially.
MNCs producing all such chemicals are making
billions.
Heroin was basically invented by BAYER
Pharmaceutical/Agro MNCs. It is also operating in
many countries like Pakistan and making Billions. CIA
introduced Heroin in South America, Vietnam and Last
of all Afghanistan/Pakistan. Hereon and present drug
economy is very similar to Colonial era Opium trade.
