Zeid replays Hashemites’ role as stooges after World Wars, says Boyle

Noting that the general sentiment within the Tamils in NorthEast and the diaspora is frustration and disappointment at the inability and unwillingness of the international community led by the US and the UN to enforce accountability for the past crimes of the Sri Lankan State, and irked by the recent statements by UN's Human Rights Chief Zeid bin Ra’ad , that Sri Lanka has made "powerful symbolic gestures of reconciliation" in an attempt to whitewash Sri Lanka's crimes, Professor Francis Boyle, an expert in international law, said that Mr Zeid is simply acting as an artificial puppet to the United States, in the same way his Hashemite family from Arabian Peninsula served under the British after the world war-I, and later became the stooges for the CIA and the United States after world war-II.

Professor Boyle, who teaches at the University of Illinois College of Law said, "[i]t is well known to those of us with expertise in the Middle East that after the First World War the British Empire took part of Zeid’s Hashemite Family from the Arabian Peninsula and put them into power in the artificial puppet statelet that the British created for them now known as Jordan as part of their spoils of war.

"With the collapse of the British Empire after World War II, the Hashemites in Jordan became wards of and stooges for the United States government and in particular the CIA.

"The CIA arms, equips, supplies, trains and pays for Zeid’s Hashemite Family and their Army in Jordan. He who pays the piper calls the tune. When the CIA says “Jump!,” Zeid and his fellow Jordanian Hashemites respond by asking: “How high?”

That is why the Americans got Zeid the job as UN High Commissioner for Human Rights. Zeid is the U.N.’s own little CIA Princeling," Professor Boyle said.
