I agree, and I think that all humanitarian interventions are inherently political. There are no altruistic states; i.e. governments simply plan on how to become more rich and powerful and they care only about themselves. They are not the heroes or angels of any other country as they may like to pretend sometimes.
Furthermore, there are also examples in history which prove that the CIA or the government of a country has inflicted harm upon their own people, and then they falsely blamed it on another country only so that they can justify an invasion of that country. Then, the government creates a smokescreen by covering up all their secrets with false information that everyone else starts believing in.
Governments Routinely Conduct Fake Terror
Quote:Governments routinely admit to false flag terror - governments attacking people and then blaming others in order to create animosity towards those they wish to topple. For example:
- A major with the Nazi SS admitted at the Nuremberg trials that – under orders from the chief of the Gestapo – he and some other Nazi operatives faked attacks on their own people and resources which they blamed on the Poles, to justify the invasion of Poland. Nazi general Franz Halder also testified at the Nuremberg trials that Nazi leader Hermann Goering admitted to setting fire to the German parliament building, and then falsely blaming the communists for the arson.
- The CIA admits that it hired Iranians in the 1950′s to pose as Communists and stage bombings in Iran in order to turn the country against its democratically-elected prime minister.
- Israel admits that an Israeli terrorist cell operating in Egypt planted bombs in several buildings, including U.S. diplomatic facilities, then left behind "evidence" implicating the Arabs as the culprits (one of the bombs detonated prematurely, allowing the Egyptians to identify the bombers, and several of the Israelis later confessed).

And what you said about America aiding the rebels is also true. Sometimes undercover FBI agents and intelligence groups have supplied money and weapons to certain individuals (or to their "rebels" or "enemies") and then they persuaded them to carry out an attack somewhere. There are many such stories on the internet even though mainstream media wants to suppress these kind of "top secret" information. These are the kind of dirty, manipulative tricks of today's Western ochlocracy that most people don't know anything about. You can read about some of this in the two articles below.
That is not to say that the people who give in to such plots created by the FBI are any more innocent themselves, however.
The FBI Again Thwarts Its Own Terror Plot
Quote:The FBI has received substantial criticism over the past decade -- much of it valid -- but nobody can deny its record of excellence in thwarting its own Terrorist plots. Time and again, the FBI concocts a Terrorist attack, infiltrates Muslim communities in order to find recruits, persuades them to perpetrate the attack, supplies them with the money, weapons and know-how they need to carry it out -- only to heroically jump in at the last moment, arrest the would-be perpetrators whom the FBI converted, and save a grateful nation from the plot manufactured by the FBI.

Man Is Held in a Plan to Bomb Washington
Quote:In what seems an elaborate operation, undercover F.B.I. agents who had been talking to Mr. Ferdaus for months provided him with some of the necessary components for his planned attack, including six assault rifles, three grenades, 25 pounds of C-4 plastic explosives and even an F-86 remote-controlled aircraft. The explosives and guns were provided on Wednesday just before his arrest, law enforcement officials said.
