The mouse (rat) Hollande is carrying dirty water for the Empire once again:
On RT: France launches inquiry into Assad govt for alleged crimes against humanity.
France has launched an inquiry into Syrian President Bashar Assad’s government for alleged crimes against humanity, AFP reported. Prosecutors in Paris, with the backing of the foreign ministry, opened a preliminary inquiry on September 15 into alleged crimes committed by the Syrian government between 2011 and 2013, according to a judicial source. The investigation is largely based on evidence from a former Syrian army photographer who fled the country in 2013, taking with him some 55,000 photographs. The inquiry will be led by France’s war crimes body. Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius said the opening of the French probe should not prevent the UN from pressing on with their own investigations.
The answer is clear,Russia,China,Iran,together should have a serious talk with the French.And let them know how unhelpful they are being.Syria should convene a Syrian military court and indict French leaders for war crimes in aiding terrorists and plotting war against their nation.Those French officials,if found guilty,should be given death sentences.And wanted “dead or alive” posters issued for them.For way too long victims of NATO regimes have let NATO officials go unpunished for their crimes.Punishing a few of them under the law should drive the message home to them that their days of not having to face personal punishment for their crimes is over.I suspect there would be many in Syria and in Europe that would take the Syrian governments offer of reward.And fulfill the courts sentence on those officials.
I think by now it’s clear that Hollande is a puppet being controlled by the Puppeteer. I don’t know what skeletons he has in his closet….probably too many.
Same imbecilic Western zio-blather as usual. Ergo: Je suis un perroquet.
Hollande, BHL, and Charlie Hebdo — there you have the Humanity which Assad and Putin are committing their heinous crimes against. Serves aforesaid Humanity right.
What is the point of RT and other outlets if Russian Intel doesn’t leak the details of the machinations of FUKUS?
These war criminals are being emboldened to keep repeating their conspiracies and crimes. Good god, if Theirry Meyassan – a private citizen – will take risks to name names, why can’t the mighty Russian and Chinese states do the same?
Larov has started the UNSC session. Whilst he starts that professional woman Sam Powers is sitting there texting on her smart phone with a half smirk. I notice most countries have their foreign ministers present – where is Kerry?
Russia brought up again the funding of ISIL and for them to be added to the sanctions list. Wonder if US will veto this again. The whole worl is watching closely this time.
Looks like US continues flying planes in Syria though…….according to the updates. They are the most arrogant imbeciles – well good luck when you get hit.
[It’s unconfirmed if that’s actual footage of a Russian air strike, but RT did report on air the Russian Air Force already hit key Daesh targets]
–
PS; There goes Saker’s break though. I think this merits an all hands on deck call. Things are moving very fast since this morning. I will do what I can posting any important update I find. Big wave to the Moderators, you’ll have your work cut out with this one.
Kerry was live a few minutes ago on RT. His speech stopped short from declaring war on Russia, just about. He’s reiterating the US’s position on: that Assad must still go, there has to be a political transition in Syria, they [the US & Co] will continue to bomb Syria illegally and they “welcome” Russian involvement, but only provided if they prove themselves to be “sincere” in combating ISIS and they’re not using it as an excuse to prop-up the Assad’s government.
After the WWII here was a possibility for the world to take a course of mutual respect and collaboration among nation instead of strive. However the US absorbed the Nazi’s in its fold and with them the poison and darkness expressing itself in the growth of the military. Eisenhower warned about the military. Kennedy came and together with Nikita Khruchshev- who could have brought changes in the USSR- the darkness would have been overcome and the world could have entered a peaceful and prosperous epoch . This top to bottom “approach” failed and darkness grew. The 68 movement was another possibility, a bottom to top elan but it also got absorbed by the system ( woodstock remains the sole gathering of huge amount of people without violence what ever one may say about it) and since the the world got increasingly overpowered by the darkness.
Now the UN is a farce. israel has never abided and will never with UN resolution other western counties don’t care about resolutions also they invade bomb destroy North African countries as it pleases them. Well if they can invade the Arab countries why can’t The Arab refugees “invade” the West.
maybe a few 1000’s more should “invade” so that people there realise what it means to get your home assailed. let us hope not and that some sort of peace can return to the Middle East Also the West can just force small counties to say or vote in UN and also do what they are dictated to or… However Putin could make his stand clear before the world and especially to the anglozionist daemons; this far and no further. Although he proposed to make UN effective again I think that by now he is well matured in politics and his quick return to his working table seems to show that he does n;t put to much importance to that show.
It is to be hoped that the planned collaboration with China and Iran will end up as a solid force against all western attempts at destabilization. If this coallition could perform other countries may join in and an effective world body organically be created
One thing is certain as long as the Us remains in its present form no peace on this planet is possible.
“However the US absorbed the Nazi’s in its fold” ….. I think you need to look further than paperclip. House was one who’s efforts brought the US back under control. Tragedy and Hope is a good starting point. Those that control the printing of money are in charge. Take that away from them and let sovereign countries print their own currency rather than borrow would be a start. Starikov’s book “Nationalisation of the Ruble”, download linked here many times, covers this in depth.
The UN has done nothing to stop Washington’s invasions and bombings, illegal under international law, of seven countries or Obama’s overthrow by coup of democratic governments in Honduras and Ukraine, with more in the works.
…
What about China? China’s president left the fireworks to Putin, but set the stage for Putin by rejecting US claims of hegemony: “The future of the world must be shaped by all countries.” China’s president spoke in veiled terms against Western neoliberal economics and declared that “China’s vote in the UN will always belong to the developing countries.”
…
Obama declared Washington’s purpose to “prevent bigger countries from imposing their will on smaller ones.” Imposing its will is what Washington has been doing throughout its history and especially under Obama’s regime.
…
All those refugees overrunning Europe? Washington has nothing to do with it. The refugees are the fault of Assad who drops bombs on people. When Assad drops bombs it oppresses people, but when Washington drops bombs it liberates them. Obama justified Washington’s violence as liberation from “dictators,” such as Assad in Syria, who garnered 80% of the vote in the last election, a vote of confidence that Obama never received and never will.
…
Obama said that he had Libya attacked in order to “prevent a massacre,” but, of course, the NATO attack on Libya perpetrated a massacre, an ongoing one. But it was all Gaddafi’s fault. He was going to massacre his own people, so Washington did it for him.
Be on your toes people! Propaganda is already starting to fly:
Russia launches first air strikes in Syria as non-Isis rebels claim they are being targeted
“[..] No further information was given but activists in Homs and Hama provinces have posted images and video online claiming to show Russian planes bombing groups of non-Isis rebels who are fighting Bashar al-Assad’s forces.
The death toll could not be verified but dozens of fatalities were reported, including civilians, and footage showed injured children being treated in Talbiseh, a Free Syrian Army (FSA) stronghold.”
“[..] Sergei Ivanov, chief of Putin’s administration, said that the Federation Council voted unanimously in favour of military intervention but insisted Moscow is not sending ground troops to Syria.
He said it will only use its air force “in order to support the Syrian government forces in their fight against the Islamic State” group.
But areas reportedly hit by Russian planes today included Latamneh and Tal Wasit, both in Hama governate, and Zaafrana, Homs.
All are held by the Free Syrian Army, secular rebels, or non-Isis Islamists including Jaysh al-Fath (the Army of Conquest).”
funny how civilians are always killed when non US do the bombing. and when it’s done by the US, civilians are never killed, it’s the magic of USA’s “smart bombs” for idiots.
Russia says it’s bombing ISIS in Syria. It’s actually bombing their enemies.
“[..] And Russia said its strikes today were launched against ISIS.
Don’t believe it. The strikes reported this morning aren’t happening anywhere near ISIS territory and aren’t actually hitting ISIS positions”
“[..] According to ISW researcher Genevieve Casagrande, a Russian airstrike this morning appears to have hit Talbiseh, a town in the tan rebel-held swatch just north of Homs, in Syria’s east.”
“Relations Between Russia And The United States Are At A Fairly Low Level” – by President Vladimir Putin.
-Vladimir Putin answered questions from Russian journalists following his participation in the 70th session of the United Nations General Assembly –
“Vladimir Putin: Unfortunately, the relations between Russia and the United States are at a fairly low level; this is clear without any comments from me. But it was not our initiative to cause such a slump in relations between Russia and the United States. That is the position of our American partners. Is it good or is it bad? I think it is bad – both for bilateral relations and for global affairs. But that is the choice made by the United States. We are always prepared to develop contacts and restore full-scale relations.
As for today’s meeting, it was very useful and, what is particularly pleasant, it was very sincere. I think that our American partners explained their position quite clearly on many issues, including settling the situation in Ukraine and Syria, as well as the Middle East overall. Indeed, surprising as it may seem, we have many coinciding points and opinions about all these issues. We also have differences, which we have agreed to work on together. I hope that this work will be constructive [..]”
What a load of Obfuscation and Worship of Baal from the usually feisty “Cross Talk.”
Dmitri Babich, and Profs, Edward Lozansky, and Geoffry Roberts, spent most of their ‘brilliant’ commentary on praising Russian President Vladimir Putin’s speech as being “persuasive,” (to whom?), and they spoke of his “offers of joining an anti-terrorist coalition” (with the terrorists themselves) – Say What!?!?
Next, (I’ll admit, they didn’t commit the “we” pronoun CIA mis-direction trick), but they used the other CIA mis-direction trick, by referring, in passing, to the “export of Democratic Revolutions” by the Zio-American Oligarchs. These austere Profs, (and I warn all against trusting any Profs, who are members of the oldest profession, and sell their souls, as well as their bodies for a Tenured position, Hell! they even sell their souls for a minimum wage position at local Community colleges). Wail a Minute! Ignore the preceding remark, as I am a Prof, and have not done any of those above things – in years. End of digression.
A Key point here is: The imperialist Oligarchs export many things; but among them is not to be found any democracy. The so called ‘Profs.’ should have had the decency to make that clear.
In Vietnam, Ukraine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Guatemala, Nicaragua, The Dominican Republic, Chile, Argentina, Greece, Libya, Iran, Indonesia, Syria, Republican Spain, and Dallas in 1963, among dozens of other nations invaded and gutted by the Zionist American Oligarchs, Democracy was the FIRST casualty.
The Profs, Commentator, and Babich, were all proud of Putin’s pointed question of, and I paraphrase, “where they all went wrong.?” Hell! Even Lenin could have answered that question. Lenin could also have explained the danger of advocating unity with the very terrorist forces you are supposed to be resisting. As could have, Durruti.
Key Point # 2: However, there is a happy ending to this Missive. I have it on good authority that Vladimir Putin read my previous Missive in the Saker, in which I criticized his (Putin’s) emasculated speech before the UN, and, won over by the correctness of my argument, BOMBED the Zionist-American terrorist forces (ISIS), located on Syrian territory, without asking their (the Zio-American Oligarchs) permission. His nation, the Heroic Russia, in full Glorious revival, gave the terrorist hypocrites 1 hour notice, and commenced the bombardment. In 2015, this was the shot heard around the world.
All the fat assed profs, Diplomats, and bought politicians could not accomplish that.
Fighting most of the the leadership of my own dem party, spending $1300 to my opponent Patrick Browne’s $40,000+, blacked out of the media (TV, Papers, & Radio), I held the Dems, Greens, & Labor Party vote – 7,000, to Browne’s 10,000.
I earlier won the contested Dem primary (my $1000 v opponent & leadership’s $5,000) Campaign financial records in PA are Public record.
Had fun, winning 7,000 votes from a Free People, doing better v Browne than any candidate since. Browne still proudly displays my book – I gave him when he visited my home, while campaigning.
I Ran as a “Progressive Democrat” and “Anarchist.”
Allentown, where my children grew up, Mack Trucks, Conrail Yards where my son worked, and Bethlehem Steel, just across the city line.
Democracy is the way to go. We had little then; we have none now.
In life, it’s not whether or not you win or lose that counts; its how you lose!
Crosstalk mentions the suggestion of a three-part meeting between Putin, Xi Jinping, and Obama on somewhat the Yalta format. I haven’t seen, – apologies if it has been discussed – the RT video of Xi Jinping’s UN speech presented here, so here it is:
Moderators may not be able to keep track of false claims as they fly thick and fast now that Russia has had to involve itself in the defense of Syria. We should ourselves be wary of all claims, bearing in mind what has happened in Ukraine, and earlier in Syria itself. To those who claim that the UN is a failed institution, I will counter that such claims may serve to identify other questionable remarks. When our media is so propagandized, it is important to hear from the leadership of all countries in their own words.
Those of us who are aware of inconsistencies in the reports that will be linked here about the developed crisis in Syria can provide valuable assessments we all will very much appreciate. Thanks to all.
As expected the West Media is already full of vids and photos of the massive civilian casualties from the Russian air strikes against the anti Assad fighters including of course photos of dead and wounded children. Unfortunately for them RAF released the gun camera footage of the strikes almost immediately after the strikes, just seen live on Channel 24 in Russia, and they in no way resemble what is being touted in the WM footage.
Oddly the West Media studiously ignored for 18 months the videos and photos of the dead and wounded civilians in Novorossiya, victims of Kiev’s relentless campaign to destroy infrastructure, physical plant, shops, magazines, small and large industry, transportation systems, water and gas lines, Minsk 1 & 2 be damned. I wonder why.
The international situation is getting quite ugly. DC has clearly stated today that President Assad must go, that the only contribution to the Syrian Civil War that is allowed for RAF is to strike ISIS, not any of the other groups attacking Syria. US/EU/NATO seem to have a serious problem with their airborne target acquisition systems in that more often than not they seem to bomb Syrian Army positions rather than ISIS and other terrorist groups trying to take Syria, such targeting mistakes later fobbed off as just that, mistakes. One I can see even with the most modern of acquisition systems, two maybe, dozens and more, not hardly.
I think it is only a matter of time before one side or the other in the heat of the moment shoots down an aircraft and when that happens the consequences are huge. Will the aggrieved side then proceed to attack the shooters? Will the shooters then attack any aircraft that is not theirs? What will the political ramifications of such acts lead to? Major units of the Black Sea Fleet are in the Med and in the general area of conflict, as are major units of the US Navy. Will the start of air hostilities result in a battle between the respective fleets? Probably so, in fact I would say definitely so.
Bottom line, at this time the chances of war between RF and China against US/EU/NATO are the highest in my lifetime. I hope it does not come to war but I’m not optimistic.
“One thing is certain as long as the Us remains in its present form no peace on this planet is possible”
The problem of this darkness is that, the roots of this madness to “Own” the all world and enslave all of the nations to work only for us and we will just parasite on everyone was established in old Egypt when these dark people were expelled from Egypt.
These are generations and generations who are holding this message and translating this to the next generations to keep going till we will achieve our goals.
You can see they have tried through Hitler to achieve this goal and when it fell apart they transported all of the former Hitler closest assistants to the USA to continue to work on this plan from every single angle, lower the education level/ stupid people are much easer to manipulate / globalization, non sense wars just loot the countries and gain more financial power, wall street manipulations, Federal reserve ,drugs and it can go on for ever.
Yes, our advantage came to the point that more and more people can see the clear picture that they have decided to achieve this goal through the elected and absolutely corrupted officials and implement fascistic terror on us around the world. The evidence is absolutely visible not just in US, but around the all world. Members of the BRICK’s countries / their leaders / they understand that this is a total non- sense to enslave 7 bill people around the world because this is an enormous power when these people will take their power into their hands. They can see much better solution to bring back the balance “You live and let another people live too in dignity” and this is the difference between the psychopaths and mentally stable people.
We are now on the peak of this final fight after centuries of abuse and it is obvious that these parasites are not going to give up till last minutes when it is going to be trevealed that their plan is already exposed for the all world and they must to give up.
I just really hope that every single person who has abused and implemented this dark plan for the all world will be ask to take a responsibility what they have done and accept the punishment.
Let’s hope for the brighter future for all of the humanity around this beautiful earth.
Russia must be careful in executing this war because west would like her to fail so a lot of lies. When Saudi Arabia can attack Yemen eith impunity for 7 months and angloamericans can attack afganistan and continue yo occupy that land for 15 years _all with millions of civilian deaths then why Isrussia not allowed to conduct her war with out hurry and with no value given to criticism?
Russia must not get distracted to reply to thse western lies and accusatiob-ignore them or retort with example.
Russia must win this war withoverwhelming force. No point in going healfhearedly as if gping on champion fight with both hands tied.
Russia must do massive awe and swift victory. Not only russua must ein but also itshould be apparent thatshe has won handsomly. Only then this evil angloamerican empitre will get puncutred.
That is why Russia must concentrate pn winning war rather than getting distracted by Nato scu–bags.
I love Peter Lavelle and Crosstalk, but he has started interrupting way too much. He hardly lets any of his guests finish what they are saying or even finish a sentence and takes over the conversation and takes it in his preferred direction. It is fine to give direction to the conversation, but not to interrupt and take over.
Back off, Peter! Let your guests speak for more than one sentence. Bear in mind that many of your guests are not native English speakers. So, that is even less considerate of you.
But you were also regularly cutting off Geoffry from Cork, who is a native English speaker. He was less inclined than the others to give up the floor before he was finished . . .
I appreciate that, in general, moderators/hosts of “talking heads” panel programs walk a slippery slope– modest set-ups and a modicum of background information too easily turn into impromptu speechmaking that overwhelms the group discussion.
This tendency is more acute when, as with “Crosstalk”, the host is more of a moderator/participant than a detached questioner/interviewer.
Lavelle seems genuinely passionate about his work, and regular “Crosstalk” watchers know the sore points that prompt him to turn his “setups” into impassioned rants.
I’m not presuming to “diagnose” Lavelle, but I can’t help notice that he speaks in two distinctive tones: he’s either subdued, and speaks in an unctuous, mellow lower register– or else he gets worked up and shifts into Rant Mode.
“Crosstalk”‘s conceptual slogan, or premise, is that everyone is encouraged to “jump in”, but when Lavelle gives himself permission to jump in so often, he seems unaware or indifferent that he’s splashing too much water out of the pool.
It’s hard to believe that he and his production team are oblivious to this problem, so perhaps he just can’t help himself.
Great. Thank you.
There speaks an intelligent national leader.
Just shows up how embarrassingly limited ours are, especially Obama. Why especially? Because Obama really thinks he is something special whose — doesn’t stink. He has a huge superiority complex and it shines through in every word he says and every “sort of” expressoin on his face.. Actually, the man is incredibly cold. So his mediocrity combined with his pride make him worse than the rest of the incoherent pack.
He would never be able to put together a coherent response such as the one Putin produced easily and clearly.
Putin is cool, calm, and collected, and can put together a whole essay while thinking on his feet.
Obviously, the world sees this—even these journalists saw this—and it has to give them pause.
Ann: Where is the link you mention in your following post? I would like to see that.
Thanks. Katherine
I like Obama and God bless him. He was dealt a very, very bad hand and add to that Netanyahu was constantly breathing on his neck.
Today, Netanyahu is history with AIPAC. Under the fog of ISIS, Russia is at the doorstep of Israel in Syria. Pretty soon, Russia will be at the doorstep of Israel in Lebanon, then Iraq and then Egypt…..
BTW, Saudi Arabia is paying Russia to arm Egypt with the best of equipment. Russia will arm Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran ….. with the best of equipment and Netanyahu cannot do anything.
Obama has refused to see him this year so far. He might see him on November 8. However, Netanyahu has burned his bridges with everyone. So when Russia moves into Syria, he cannot go to USA, he goes to Russia and comes back empty handed.
Even AIPAC cannot do anything. There is stunned silence there!
To me the best USA President is Obama and worst USA President is Bill Clinton, and not Bush. Now, I can see why Al Gore wanted to loose the Presidency so bad, as he didn’t wanted to be called worst like Bush.
Russian jets started striking ISIS positions in Syria

-Vladimir Putin answered questions from Russian journalists following his participation in the 70th session of the United Nations General Assembly –
“Vladimir Putin: Unfortunately, the relations between Russia and the United States are at a fairly low level; this is clear without any comments from me. But it was not our initiative to cause such a slump in relations between Russia and the United States. That is the position of our American partners. Is it good or is it bad? I think it is bad – both for bilateral relations and for global affairs. But that is the choice made by the United States. We are always prepared to develop contacts and restore full-scale relations.
As for today’s meeting, it was very useful and, what is particularly pleasant, it was very sincere. I think that our American partners explained their position quite clearly on many issues, including settling the situation in Ukraine and Syria, as well as the Middle East overall. Indeed, surprising as it may seem, we have many coinciding points and opinions about all these issues. We also have differences, which we have agreed to work on together. I hope that this work will be constructive [..]”

What a load of Obfuscation and Worship of Baal from the usually feisty “Cross Talk.”
Dmitri Babich, and Profs, Edward Lozansky, and Geoffry Roberts, spent most of their ‘brilliant’ commentary on praising Russian President Vladimir Putin’s speech as being “persuasive,” (to whom?), and they spoke of his “offers of joining an anti-terrorist coalition” (with the terrorists themselves) – Say What!?!?
Next, (I’ll admit, they didn’t commit the “we” pronoun CIA mis-direction trick), but they used the other CIA mis-direction trick, by referring, in passing, to the “export of Democratic Revolutions” by the Zio-American Oligarchs. These austere Profs, (and I warn all against trusting any Profs, who are members of the oldest profession, and sell their souls, as well as their bodies for a Tenured position, Hell! they even sell their souls for a minimum wage position at local Community colleges). Wail a Minute! Ignore the preceding remark, as I am a Prof, and have not done any of those above things – in years. End of digression.
A Key point here is: The imperialist Oligarchs export many things; but among them is not to be found any democracy. The so called ‘Profs.’ should have had the decency to make that clear.
In Vietnam, Ukraine, Iraq, Afghanistan, Guatemala, Nicaragua, The Dominican Republic, Chile, Argentina, Greece, Libya, Iran, Indonesia, Syria, Republican Spain, and Dallas in 1963, among dozens of other nations invaded and gutted by the Zionist American Oligarchs, Democracy was the FIRST casualty.
The Profs, Commentator, and Babich, were all proud of Putin’s pointed question of, and I paraphrase, “where they all went wrong.?” Hell! Even Lenin could have answered that question. Lenin could also have explained the danger of advocating unity with the very terrorist forces you are supposed to be resisting. As could have, Durruti.
Key Point # 2: However, there is a happy ending to this Missive. I have it on good authority that Vladimir Putin read my previous Missive in the Saker, in which I criticized his (Putin’s) emasculated speech before the UN, and, won over by the correctness of my argument, BOMBED the Zionist-American terrorist forces (ISIS), located on Syrian territory, without asking their (the Zio-American Oligarchs) permission. His nation, the Heroic Russia, in full Glorious revival, gave the terrorist hypocrites 1 hour notice, and commenced the bombardment. In 2015, this was the shot heard around the world.
All the fat assed profs, Diplomats, and bought politicians could not accomplish that.
For the Democratic Republics!

@ Peter J. Antonsen,
Q; All the fat assed profs, Diplomats, and bought politicians could not accomplish that.
R; I’ve tried to accomplish many things in life and mostly failed. I’m proud of the successes though.
How about you?
“October 09, 2000|The Morning Call – To the Editor:
We ask Latinos and all residents of the 131st state House District to elect Dr. Peter J. Antonsen as our state representative on Nov. 7. Dr. Antonsen is a friend, a concerned resident, scholar and lifelong supporter for equal rights for all people.” – http://articles.mcall.com/2000-10-09/news/3337922_1_campaign-finance-reform-latinos-allentown
Did you succeed?
Fighting most of the the leadership of my own dem party, spending $1300 to my opponent Patrick Browne’s $40,000+, blacked out of the media (TV, Papers, & Radio), I held the Dems, Greens, & Labor Party vote – 7,000, to Browne’s 10,000.
I earlier won the contested Dem primary (my $1000 v opponent & leadership’s $5,000) Campaign financial records in PA are Public record.
Had fun, winning 7,000 votes from a Free People, doing better v Browne than any candidate since. Browne still proudly displays my book – I gave him when he visited my home, while campaigning.
I Ran as a “Progressive Democrat” and “Anarchist.”
Allentown, where my children grew up, Mack Trucks, Conrail Yards where my son worked, and Bethlehem Steel, just across the city line.
Democracy is the way to go. We had little then; we have none now.
In life, it’s not whether or not you win or lose that counts; its how you lose!
Peter J. Antonsen

Well Peter, you don’t just talk the talk – you really do walk the walk.
I still say drop the ‘anarchist’ and you’ll walk that bit further. :)
Didn’t think Putin had the time to wade through the comments on this blog, much less take any advice.
But nice to know he takes an occasional dekko :)
Thanks eimar,
I also doubt that Vladimir Putin has the time to pay attention to us mortals at Saker.is. But, you never know.
Don’t know where we would be without the efforts of the Saker.
Only mortals can appreciate immortality!
Crosstalk mentions the suggestion of a three-part meeting between Putin, Xi Jinping, and Obama on somewhat the Yalta format. I haven’t seen, – apologies if it has been discussed – the RT video of Xi Jinping’s UN speech presented here, so here it is:
http://www.rt.com/news/316829-china-xi-unga-speech/
Moderators may not be able to keep track of false claims as they fly thick and fast now that Russia has had to involve itself in the defense of Syria. We should ourselves be wary of all claims, bearing in mind what has happened in Ukraine, and earlier in Syria itself. To those who claim that the UN is a failed institution, I will counter that such claims may serve to identify other questionable remarks. When our media is so propagandized, it is important to hear from the leadership of all countries in their own words.
Those of us who are aware of inconsistencies in the reports that will be linked here about the developed crisis in Syria can provide valuable assessments we all will very much appreciate. Thanks to all.
As expected the West Media is already full of vids and photos of the massive civilian casualties from the Russian air strikes against the anti Assad fighters including of course photos of dead and wounded children. Unfortunately for them RAF released the gun camera footage of the strikes almost immediately after the strikes, just seen live on Channel 24 in Russia, and they in no way resemble what is being touted in the WM footage.
Oddly the West Media studiously ignored for 18 months the videos and photos of the dead and wounded civilians in Novorossiya, victims of Kiev’s relentless campaign to destroy infrastructure, physical plant, shops, magazines, small and large industry, transportation systems, water and gas lines, Minsk 1 & 2 be damned. I wonder why.
The international situation is getting quite ugly. DC has clearly stated today that President Assad must go, that the only contribution to the Syrian Civil War that is allowed for RAF is to strike ISIS, not any of the other groups attacking Syria. US/EU/NATO seem to have a serious problem with their airborne target acquisition systems in that more often than not they seem to bomb Syrian Army positions rather than ISIS and other terrorist groups trying to take Syria, such targeting mistakes later fobbed off as just that, mistakes. One I can see even with the most modern of acquisition systems, two maybe, dozens and more, not hardly.
I think it is only a matter of time before one side or the other in the heat of the moment shoots down an aircraft and when that happens the consequences are huge. Will the aggrieved side then proceed to attack the shooters? Will the shooters then attack any aircraft that is not theirs? What will the political ramifications of such acts lead to? Major units of the Black Sea Fleet are in the Med and in the general area of conflict, as are major units of the US Navy. Will the start of air hostilities result in a battle between the respective fleets? Probably so, in fact I would say definitely so.
Bottom line, at this time the chances of war between RF and China against US/EU/NATO are the highest in my lifetime. I hope it does not come to war but I’m not optimistic.
After Obama was given the Nobel Peace Prize, I don’t think any decent person would want it.

Bernie you are totally right as you said:
“One thing is certain as long as the Us remains in its present form no peace on this planet is possible”
The problem of this darkness is that, the roots of this madness to “Own” the all world and enslave all of the nations to work only for us and we will just parasite on everyone was established in old Egypt when these dark people were expelled from Egypt.
These are generations and generations who are holding this message and translating this to the next generations to keep going till we will achieve our goals.
You can see they have tried through Hitler to achieve this goal and when it fell apart they transported all of the former Hitler closest assistants to the USA to continue to work on this plan from every single angle, lower the education level/ stupid people are much easer to manipulate / globalization, non sense wars just loot the countries and gain more financial power, wall street manipulations, Federal reserve ,drugs and it can go on for ever.
Yes, our advantage came to the point that more and more people can see the clear picture that they have decided to achieve this goal through the elected and absolutely corrupted officials and implement fascistic terror on us around the world. The evidence is absolutely visible not just in US, but around the all world. Members of the BRICK’s countries / their leaders / they understand that this is a total non- sense to enslave 7 bill people around the world because this is an enormous power when these people will take their power into their hands. They can see much better solution to bring back the balance “You live and let another people live too in dignity” and this is the difference between the psychopaths and mentally stable people.
We are now on the peak of this final fight after centuries of abuse and it is obvious that these parasites are not going to give up till last minutes when it is going to be trevealed that their plan is already exposed for the all world and they must to give up.
I just really hope that every single person who has abused and implemented this dark plan for the all world will be ask to take a responsibility what they have done and accept the punishment.
Let’s hope for the brighter future for all of the humanity around this beautiful earth.
Russia must be careful in executing this war because west would like her to fail so a lot of lies. When Saudi Arabia can attack Yemen eith impunity for 7 months and angloamericans can attack afganistan and continue yo occupy that land for 15 years _all with millions of civilian deaths then why Isrussia not allowed to conduct her war with out hurry and with no value given to criticism?
Russia must not get distracted to reply to thse western lies and accusatiob-ignore them or retort with example.
Russia must win this war withoverwhelming force. No point in going healfhearedly as if gping on champion fight with both hands tied.
Russia must do massive awe and swift victory. Not only russua must ein but also itshould be apparent thatshe has won handsomly. Only then this evil angloamerican empitre will get puncutred.
That is why Russia must concentrate pn winning war rather than getting distracted by Nato scu–bags.
I love Peter Lavelle and Crosstalk, but he has started interrupting way too much. He hardly lets any of his guests finish what they are saying or even finish a sentence and takes over the conversation and takes it in his preferred direction. It is fine to give direction to the conversation, but not to interrupt and take over.
Back off, Peter! Let your guests speak for more than one sentence. Bear in mind that many of your guests are not native English speakers. So, that is even less considerate of you.
But you were also regularly cutting off Geoffry from Cork, who is a native English speaker. He was less inclined than the others to give up the floor before he was finished . . .
Katherine
Salam Katherine,
I fully agree with you. I quit watching him as he salivates too much lately.
Best regards,
Mohamed
I agree.
I appreciate that, in general, moderators/hosts of “talking heads” panel programs walk a slippery slope– modest set-ups and a modicum of background information too easily turn into impromptu speechmaking that overwhelms the group discussion.
This tendency is more acute when, as with “Crosstalk”, the host is more of a moderator/participant than a detached questioner/interviewer.
Lavelle seems genuinely passionate about his work, and regular “Crosstalk” watchers know the sore points that prompt him to turn his “setups” into impassioned rants.
I’m not presuming to “diagnose” Lavelle, but I can’t help notice that he speaks in two distinctive tones: he’s either subdued, and speaks in an unctuous, mellow lower register– or else he gets worked up and shifts into Rant Mode.
“Crosstalk”‘s conceptual slogan, or premise, is that everyone is encouraged to “jump in”, but when Lavelle gives himself permission to jump in so often, he seems unaware or indifferent that he’s splashing too much water out of the pool.
It’s hard to believe that he and his production team are oblivious to this problem, so perhaps he just can’t help himself.
Here is a fantastic excerpt from Putin in NY…I got it off Russia Insider, which I watch everyday…this is worth watching
https://youtu.be/Z3dLeMrt7aY
Great. Thank you.
There speaks an intelligent national leader.
Just shows up how embarrassingly limited ours are, especially Obama. Why especially? Because Obama really thinks he is something special whose — doesn’t stink. He has a huge superiority complex and it shines through in every word he says and every “sort of” expressoin on his face.. Actually, the man is incredibly cold. So his mediocrity combined with his pride make him worse than the rest of the incoherent pack.
He would never be able to put together a coherent response such as the one Putin produced easily and clearly.
Putin is cool, calm, and collected, and can put together a whole essay while thinking on his feet.
Obviously, the world sees this—even these journalists saw this—and it has to give them pause.
Ann: Where is the link you mention in your following post? I would like to see that.
Thanks. Katherine
Salam Sister Katherine,
I like Obama and God bless him. He was dealt a very, very bad hand and add to that Netanyahu was constantly breathing on his neck.
Today, Netanyahu is history with AIPAC. Under the fog of ISIS, Russia is at the doorstep of Israel in Syria. Pretty soon, Russia will be at the doorstep of Israel in Lebanon, then Iraq and then Egypt…..
BTW, Saudi Arabia is paying Russia to arm Egypt with the best of equipment. Russia will arm Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran ….. with the best of equipment and Netanyahu cannot do anything.
Obama has refused to see him this year so far. He might see him on November 8. However, Netanyahu has burned his bridges with everyone. So when Russia moves into Syria, he cannot go to USA, he goes to Russia and comes back empty handed.
Even AIPAC cannot do anything. There is stunned silence there!
To me the best USA President is Obama and worst USA President is Bill Clinton, and not Bush. Now, I can see why Al Gore wanted to loose the Presidency so bad, as he didn’t wanted to be called worst like Bush.
Cut the fog out and one will see ……..
Best regards,
Mohamed
Can’t agree with you re Obama (still would like to see the “boorish toast” link) but we can probably agree on “Long Live Greater Syria!”
Katherine
and here’s another very short video of ill-mannered boob of US President forgetting to include dear Putin in a toast…
