World-famous political analyst and editor Thierry Meyssan draws on his last 10 years in the thick of the action in Syria and Libya, where he served personally as an adviser to those governments. In "Before Our Very Eyes," he shares the inside story of the 21st century regime change wars. He lays bare the "Arab Spring," the "revolutions" against Gaddafi and Assad, and the rapid rise of the jihadist monster ISIS, as masked operations of the US empire, "leading from behind." In "Before Our Very Eyes" he chronicles the onslaught against Syria and Libya, from the viewpoints of three camps: the foolish ambitions of the French neocolonialists, the fanaticism of the Muslim Brotherhood, and the lust for world domination of the Anglo-Zionist-American Empire. We see how the Anglo-American axis (the US, UK, and Israel discreetly behind the scenes) deployed their iron grip on the world's money and media to propagate a fake scenario of human rights violations. This was the cover story for the real scheme -- to utterly disable the Muslim world by bringing it under the sword of fanatics like the Brotherhood, Al-Qaeda and ISIS. Vassal regimes like Turkey, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan and the Emirates were assigned to do the heavy lifting. For public relations purposes, the US pretended to fight half-heartedly against ISIS – which in fact it had intentionally created in Iraq, to divide and conquer the insurgency. The US then covertly ferried the terrorists into Libya and Syria. It continues to prop up ISIS by devious means. Thus the wars on Libya and Syria were based on treachery and fakery from start to finish – but the suffering of millions of innocent victims is all too real. A most murderous masquerade!

Editorial Reviews

Review

Extraordinary, a real initiation into politics, easy to read.
Fascinating panorama of geopolitics by an incorruptible eyewitness.
Very enlightening. Reads like a novel, with facts far stranger than fiction ... A manual of real insight into our "elites" and media.
What our media will never dare reveal. An absolute must read. To share and give to friends.
Eye-opening. A striking analysis of the charade! For 20 years the American Deep State and its British, French, Israeli and Saudi vassals foment coups and wars behind the mask of color revolutions and Islamic terrorism. It's crystal clear, frightening, and unforgettable!
Reveals the true underpinnings of world geopolitics...
An author persecuted for his ideas, yet a remarkably well-informed insider... some pages read like major "intelligence" service reports.
Astounding truths! This is a really disturbing book but it shows how much we are manipulated by the globalist Atlanto-Zionist oligarchy which controls all the media of our lovely Western democracies!
Absolute must read. A shocking alternative to our usual media.

About the Author

Thierry Meyssan shocked the world with the first "9/11 Truth" books, his L'Effroyable Imposture in March 2002 (9/11: The Big Lie), and a sequel, Pentagate. In the 1990's he was national secretary of a French radical party which held seats in the government. He is the founder of the Voltaire Network, a major alternative international press agency. In 2005, he organized the Axis for Peace, a congress of international leaders and writers opposing illegal wars. In 2007, he was forced into exile and settled in the Middle East, where he has witnessed and participated in history in the making. He has been called France's most controversial public figure, and is the only Western observer to remain on the scene in Libya and Syria during the entire conflict. In 2011 Meyssan went to Tripoli and was appointed by Gaddafi to mobilize international support against the aggression that would destroy the Libyan republic; but the NATO onslaught came too quickly, and he narrowly escaped with his life. He is currently consultant to Syrian President Bashar al-Assad's government, and has been close to heads of state like Hugo Chavez of Venezuela and Mahmoud Ahmadinejad of Iran.

What a brave, well researched, insider perspective on the truth of the Middle East conflicts. Having Lebanese Christian heritage I know that what the media shows in the West doesn’t match the situation on the ground in the Middle East. But to finally get the truth about what is really going on in all the fake wars and fake flag attacks is a godsend.

Btw readers should keep in mind this book is fair (not diplomatic) and does not pander to the left or right. It supports good actions of world leaders and attacks bad ones related to the subject matter. This is a non-partisan perspective so if you are looking for a safe zone, this is not the place. There is no ego stroking or patting oneself on the back. Most people should feel humiliated for being played the fool, after reading this, but please don’t. Good people being deceived by rich, powerful, controlling bad people, is nothing to be ashamed of. We never stood a chance. Until we read books like this one!

As upsetting as it is to read what injustices have been perpetrated on helpless victims overseas, and what our tax dollars are really being used for, at the same time, with acquiring the truth comes by necessity a freedom that can never exist in a worldview built on lies.

All references are provided and there are a lot to more than satisfy any sceptic. This book is factual and draws matter-of-fact conclusions rather than opinions masked as fact, as we see so often in the modern art of mainstream journalism.

Kudos to the author for being brave enough to get this out there. And the addendum with the latest political updates at the end makes it extremely current, and is very much appreciated. A MUST READ!

There was so much information in this book. It was overwhelming at times because of long names. I learned a lot from the book. Thank you!
Reviewed in the United States on July 8, 2019
Thierry Mayssan should be congratulated for this important work. Given the North Korean level of propaganda Western governments have spewed since 9/11 to manipulate the public into supporting wars that killed millions abroad, and destroyed civil liberties at home, there is much in this book to recommend. "They hate us for our freedoms" I bet they chuckle over that line. Mayssan exposes names, organizations, meetings, motives, and crimes of the US deep state, along with its UK/Israeli "partners" to further their dystopian/neofeudal New World Order. The breadth of this book is such that Mayssan must cover complex side events in a few sentences. I am not against this strategy, but I wish he had included footnotes. so that readers could confirm/ investigate and reach their own conclusions. There is a bibliography at the end of the book, but this obviously isn't as usable, nor is it necessarily inclusive of all sources used.

Mayssan often speaks of the "Greater Middle East Project" as a goal of London and DC. This would result in a patchwork of tiny, anemic nations, none over 10M citizens. Why this would this benefit US/UK is never mentioned. It is however a stated goal of Israel, and the Israel-first, jewish neocons of the Clinton-era Project for a New American Century who's membership infested the Bush Jr. administration and the Pentagon's Office of Special Plans. Mayssan mentions the following: "Between 12 and 14 October 2003, there was a strange meeting at the King David Hotel in Jerusalem. The invitation announced: “Israel is the moral alternative to Eastern totalitarianism and Western moral relativism. Israel is the ‘Ground Zero’ of the central battle for the survival of our civilisation. Israel can be saved, and the rest of the West with it. It is time for us to meet in Jerusalem”. Several hundred personalities from the extreme right of the United States and Israel were received at the expense of the Russian Mafia. Avigdor Lieberman, Benjamin Netanyahu and Ehud Olmert were there to congratulate Elliot Abrams, Richard Perle and Daniel Pipes. They all shared the same belief system– theopolitics. According to them, the “End Time” is close. Soon the world will be governed by a Jewish institution based in Jerusalem." Unfortunately after dropping this bombshell, for the remainder of the book Mayssan regards Israel as the junior partners. Israel refers to this plan as the the "Greater Israel Project" and its right to expand its borders from Bagdad to Cairo. The US military has told its soldiers they should be prepared to die for Israel. Has Israel told its soldiers the inverse? Of course not. The goyim are expendable. But then Mr. Mayssan may just be attempting to avoid a visit from Mossad, and that I can understand.

I detected a couple small errors, which aren't consequential given the scope of the book (one regarding the nuclear weapon theft from Minot AFB at the end of W's administration, and one regarding Obama's pedigree) but given the lack of footnotes, and the clandestine nature of the book's material it gives the reader pause as to what other errors may exist. That said, a valuable book.

Although it's many of the middle eastern names wree hard to pronounce, the author takes you on a journey through the history of civil wars and what caused them. Forget everything you thought you knew about your country and it's political agenda. This it's mind blowing and leaves you with your mouth open!

At the beginning of 2002, just a few months after 9/11, Thierry Meyssan wrote the biggest blockbuster in French publishing history, L’Effrayeuse imposture. Meyssan convinced French president Chirac, and the whole Muslim world, that 9/11 was a fraud. His book was the most important single factor leading to France’s refusal to join the US war on Iraq. Meyssan’s bestseller was perhaps the most important and influential 9/11 truth book of all time, because it came out early enough to have a major impact on history.

Now Meyssan is out with a new book providing an alternative perspective on the wars that 9/11 was scripted to unleash…especially their second phase under Obama. Before Our Very Eyes: Fake Wars and Big Lies from 9/11 to Donald Trump exposes the so-called “Arab Spring” of 2011 as a fraud engineered by Pentagon regime-changers and their hirelings.

Along with the analysis, Meyssan recounts how he personally played a major role in resisting the Obama Adminstration’s proxy wars on Libya and Syria. Though I don’t fully agree with his analysis—I think he underestimates the (admittedly flawed) Muslim Brotherhood and overestimates Donald Trump—I would still rank Before Our Very Eyes as the best, most insightful and accurate history of the post-2011 Muslim East. Unlike all of the official and pseudo-alternative histories, this one follow’s W.C. Fields’ advice to “take the bull by the tail and look the facts in the face.” And the facts show that we are being outrageously lied to by leaders whose incompetence, corruption, fanaticism, sadism, and almost unimaginable mendacity will boggle the minds of future historians.

5.0 out of 5 stars Discussion of US global strategy
Reviewed in Germany on April 28, 2019
Das Buch schildert, wie sich die globale Strategie der USA umsetzt, einige Staaten im Chaos zu halten und von jeglicher Entwicklung abzuhalten. Das Bindeglied zu den vielen militärischen Einsätzen ist in Deutschland konkret. So unterläuft North Stream 2 jegliche Sanktion gegen Russland. Gleichzeitig ist Deutschland in der NATO dem Oberkommando der US Generäle ausgesetzt und soll sich und die EU präsentieren als Absatzmarkt für Gas aus Qatar.

Das Buch ist hochinteressant und man muß sich nur darauf verlassen, dass die EU Mitgliedstaaten alle zwanghaft NATO Länder sind und dem Pentagon gehorchen. Inwiefern sind wir auch Betroffene? Before our Eyes ist daher sehr relevant. Der Autor ist preisgekrönt und sehr gut lesbar, weil er versucht Positionen zu verstehen. Er ist Analytiker. Super gutes Buch.

Reviewed in Australia on March 6, 2024
When taken individually, each world event seems important and relevant only to those immediately effected.
However, as described in this book, when viewed collectively, we are made aware that we are subjected to a virtual web of manipulation, lies and control by those with a vested interest.
Possessed of an arrogance beyond belief, humanity faces it's biggest challenge to recover the freedoms we have inadvertantly given away.
A detailed and comprehensive treatise on the modern world.
