The fact that ISIS have grown from strength to strength over the past few years with US planes in the sky, and suddenly in a matter of a few days their positions are being dismantled by Russian planes and their members forced to flee to safer zones over the borders – is a testimony to the fact that the US has been shepherding this terror group and assisting its missions on the ground.
The CIA spends years paying, training, and supporting ISIS and the Russians scattered ISIS like sheep in a few days. I love it!
Mind you, that is the question. We’ve heard plenty about the bombings, and I’ve hypothesized that these bombings are likely to be more serious than the Western bombings, and co-ordinated with the Syrian army and Hezbollah, and combined with resupply of same, so should lead to results where the Western bombings didn’t.
But I haven’t yet heard much about whether that has actually begun to happen, whether the Syrian armed forces and their allies have actually begun to make gains. Are our chickens hatching, or have we begun to count a titch early?
The best move to end the carnage would be if an unfortunate accident was to befall the evil swine Erdogan. He’s about to rig an election to secure more power to continue his jihad. I am impressed at how well he faked ‘falling out’ with Israel.
There is more on Sputnik which makes the situation crystal clear,
i.e. it is no coinsidence that idiots are spreading the word now,
are they in panic? http://sputniknews.com/politics/20151004/1028003214/cameron-admits-nuclear-weapon.html
Did the Britons forget that it was Adolf who has almost finished them (if not hesitating in Dunkerque)? They want to pull fingers with Russia and even bully them???
Yeah Cameron – the only thing that will ensure is your destruction A-hole, if that doesn’t get the porker out nothing will. Keep digging Cameron your doing a fine job. Of course I think he is talking to the Kremlin myself. As if Russia can be threatened. Putin would have never given that speech if he thought he could be…without destroying the enemy. Not a chance. What a fool.

Some may find the last part of Mr. Mumblebrain’s comment a tad overdone, but apparently it is literally true–some sort of stupid student stunt in his university days.
England is the only real enemy of Russia, france, Germany, Europe and of rest of world.
Both world wars were plotted by England
That evil country has been allowed to exist too long atleast 100 years morethan it should havd. England should have been wiped out of map and divided into small plots atkeast 100 years ago when it was at brink of defeat by Germans in world war which englandxhersrlf had plotted to mske Germany fight Russia.
It’s *wonderful* watching US officials having meltdowns now that a real military power with competent intelligence gathering capabilities is scrubbing out the US-Israel created fake-ISIS stain. Stick that in your eretz-Israel pipe and smoke it, you Washington whores.

FULL VIDEO OF STUDIO FILMING FAKE ISIS BEHEADING WAS REAL AND BANNED EVERYWHERE. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A PICTURE, BUT NO, THE ENTIRE VIDEO WAS NAILED FROM A MEMBER OF JOHN McCAIN’S STAFF BY CYBER BERKUT AND IT IRREFUTABLY PROVES THE ISIS VIDEOS WERE PRODUCED IN A STUDIO BY McCAIN.
If “Islamic terror” was in any way real, they would not need to fake it. Islamic terror is a HOAX and that is all there is to it, this is solid gold, RIGHT CLICK AND SAVE, ARCHIVE AND POST! http://82.221.129.208/cyberkut.mp4
Russia bombed CIA base in Syria! HA HA HA HA HA! eat dirt.
Yep. One of the airstrikes hit an area primarily held by rebels backed by the Central Intelligence Agency and allied spy services, U.S. officials said, catapulting the Syrian crisis to a new level of danger and uncertainty
U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Russia’s approach to the Syrian war — defending Assad while ostensibly targeting extremists — was tantamount to “pouring gasoline on the fire.”
“I have been dealing with them for a long time. And this is not the kind of behavior that we should expect professionally from the Russian military,” Carter said at a Pentagon news conference.
The U.S. and its allies were angry at the Russians on many scores: that they are supporting Assad; that they aren’t coordinating their actions with the existing, U.S.-led anti-Islamic State coalition; that they provided terse notice only an hour before their operations; that they demanded the U.S. coalition stay out of Syrian airspace; and that they struck in areas where anti-Assad rebels — not Islamic State — operate.
Jim Stone RESPONSE:
I hope Russia does more of this. Anyone with as little as 3 well functioning neurons knows the U.S. is ISIS and the CIA is the support for ISIS. COME ON NOW, RUSSIA, YOU HAVE NUKES, GROW SOME BALLS, DO SOME HOUSE CLEANING AND MAKE NO APOLOGIES. God, 20 years ago I never thought I’d ever say that.
HEADLINE SHOULD BE:
Russia mops up America with their cheapest low class fighters and bombers! Yep, they just used the antiquated TU-95 and the mega cheap SU-25. That’s what America gets for lying about everything, that is what America gets for BEING ISIS. There is no way Russia can do anything in Syria that will clean up this mess without hitting American “intelligence” because that is all the opposition to Assad is composed of, no matter what face is put on that opposition.
This is EXACTLY WHY Russia hit the U.S. when going after “ISIS”
Isis is a psy op, run from offices in Washington D.C. and many foreign satellite bases. The fact that ISIS is a psy op staging company is irrefutable, and they do really fake looking beheadings with CIA/Mossad actors, CPR dolls and British rappers.

1 ) Absolutely no use of CAPITAL LETTERS (as this is considered SCREAMING).
You nail it TerraHerz like I tried to do with this astrological piece weighing in the Speech of my life:
Just read your link to Astromundane Diary including watching for a second time Putin’s UN watershed words. As a double Sagittarius I found the Diary energizing but also jarring in this mundane space. “What’s a sweetheart like you doing in a dump like this?” (Dylan)
Yes, absolutely in love with your blog. I am “earth” Taurus, but I am told that rather than ruled by Venus, that Mercury rules my chart, with a very tight conjunction of Moon Neptune in Libra….Does that make me “innocent as a child”? Kinda like that notion.
Plan to spend lots of time reading your work. Difficult for my limited knowledge but very pleasing so will read it over again.
Question: Have you worked on Putin’s chart?
I love the way you placed his speech on the birthchart of US. btw I use that chart for US also.
Another Question: Do you use the Morinus software?
If Russia gave the US forewarning of its targets, the Yanks would warn their terrorist allies to scram. Russian jets are legally in Syria at the invitation of the internationally recognised Government. US and stooge jets are not, and their intrusion into Syrian airspace is an aggression, the ‘supreme crime’ under International Law.
Good for them! I hope they can get rid of the rebels and help Assad to stabilize the nation.
This will probably get me in trouble with the ‘authorities’ here but what the heck…
Freak if they don’t know us by now…. still, martial law hasn’t been declared yet so no knock on the door. A possible computer virus to put you out of action though…protect yourself as best you can.

For the record; when people die, I don’t feel elated or the need to gloat about their deaths. They might be very misguided idiots, ones that would slit my throat in a heartbeat [hahaha], but death is final.
R; Energy never ceases to exist. On a molecular level, we ‘live’ on. Fe; the hemoglobin in my blood contains iron particles. Iron can only be made in the core of a dying star, so yes, in that sense everything lives on for ever, but I most certainly hope, I won’t be aware which of my current molecules are part of what, after my death :o)
Daniel Rich…the eternal molecule…is an even more ridiculous theory than reincarnation…I don’t know how these ‘scientists’ come up with these idiotic theories to avoid the concept of re-incarnation, that the ancient world on every continent believed in.
Matter cannot be destroyed in its essence, just like energy. If you cannot accept that, Ann, then you cannot accept how the universe functions and how life goes about forming itself. And that’s too bad.
And reincarnation is not at all inconsistent with Christianity. Jesus never preached against it. In fact, it can be argued that he endorsed the concept. But the Council of Nicea put a stop to such “heresies.”
For an answer to your assertions on both topics I would suggest you read Mark Cahill’s “One Heartbeat Away. Your Journey into Eternity.” He is a very fine writer and Apologist. Atheism doesn’t have a leg to stand on… This universe was designed… And not by committee. (C:
only if you follow stupid dogmas of RC church and all its copycats….not Russian Orthodox…its for real…but all other western churches are copycats of RC and that is where it all started to go wrong.
Wait . . . Russian Orthodox doesn’t do Heaven and Hell? And is potentially optional about reincarnation? How interesting. So what is their stance on what happens when you die?
Reminds me the short story called, $1.98. Where a mere human being saves the life of a Rat. The rat turns out to be King of Rats. So, the King wants to pay back the human, but being so small he can only pay back in small.
The guy ask for a gorgeous girl he is in love. Eventually, the King of Rats solves the problem and grants the wish of the man. He breaks downs everything in a human and turns out to be $1.98
Quoting all this my childhood memory, with inflation we might be upto $20 these days.
The Muslims like Christians don’t believe in “Reincarnation”. The “Cow Worshiping People” who came out of Egypt to Palestine, and took them 40 years to reach Palestine, they had the belief of “Reincarnation”. They assimilated themselves with the Arabs who were mostly Monotheism and took their belief. Some of them parted this belief to the early Christians of the Levant.
My Jewish friend tells me that Hebrew was not dead for about 25 centuries, it was dormant. Dead or dormant means the same thing. However, he does agree that it was “Revived or Reincarnated” from Arabic in 19th century.
Both the Septuagint and the Masoretic Text are not real McCoy. These are both transliteration of the TaNaKh in Hebrew language. So, we are back to the history of Hebrew language, a dead or dormant language for 25 centuries.
The Tribe has changed lots of things, including the history of Hebrew language and they got the Romans to accept the TaNaKh being the “True Word of God” as Old Testament and the concept of “Chosen People”
Old Testament is nothing but woven tales of old ladies, but by Christianity (largest population) accepting the “Old Testament” being the “True Word of God”, they have empowered “The Tribe” with the concept of “Chosen People”.
I usually joke that the Zoroastrians (Hindus) civilization was well established before the conception of Adam and Eve of Judeo/Christianity. There was a Christian monk who took all those begat and came with that Adam and Eve are about less than 6000 years old. Go figure!
Islam (submit) is the same religion which came on all mankind. Cultures and societies moved away from Islam (submit) and then came another Prophet to remind them.
Juedo/Christianity and Abrahamic religions are derogatory terms, which leaves half of the world population out. Both Zoroastrians and Hinduism are beautiful religions and both are believers of the Monotheism. Therefore, the Juedo/Christianity and Abrahamic religions don’t have monopoly on Monotheism.
The Aryans (Persians/Iranians) language is Sanskrit, from which which we get Greek, English and other languages and so forth.
The Semite language is Arabic, which is the central language of all Semite dialects, and from it we get Farsi, Urdu, Hindi and so forth. Hindi used to be written with Arabic scripts but now after Indira Gandhi, it is written with Sanskrit script.
The Hindu religious terms like bRahma, bRahman and bRahim are Arabic terms describing Allah. The first verse of Holy Quran is, “In the name of Allah, who is Rahman and Rahim”. Rahm is the Womb and Rahma is Mercy, thus God/Allah Mercy comes from the Womb.
Rahman is Unconditional Mercy and Rahim is Eternal Mercy.
So these people who came out from Egypt with Moses were not Monotheistic. When they met Arabs, they adopted the religion of Monotheistic Arabs and claimed it as their own. Thus, the Old Testament is nothing but woven tales.
They also parted their belief about reincarnation to the Arabs, such as the early Christians of Levant.
The Holy Quran doesn’t use the degradation term of Judeo/Christianity, it uses the term “People of The Book (singular)”. This Quranic term is all inclusive of Zoroastrians (Hindus), Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Your mundane knowledge about cow worshipping people is laughable, but i will give you a short insight into it. The whole world when in need of spirituality heads to india, bali or russia. Now you can ask why russia, check out the stonehedge of russia and the artifacts found there. Hindus have never migrated from egypt or wheresoever ever, they have migrated only from india outside.. If ever you quote some one, please think twice before you post, as the person you quote will definately have a high value page in wiki and everyone here knows the authenticity of wiki. Hinduism in its pure form does not preach conversion either with sops or sword.
Check the history and india and hindustan has given refuge to all the people from the world and only the ungrateful jews screwed india. As much as muslim world or christian world is now dominated by jews or their slaves, so is hinduism. Hinduism respects every religion and is the most tolerant religion in history.
Just try to explain some even very basic science to people without solid education… On “social networks” all are “equal” “by definition” – a hopelessly ignorant person and a thoroughly schooled one.
Russia has set up a no-fly zone in Northern Syria!
“General Breedlove believes that “very complex air defense system” deployed by Russia in Syria is aimed not against the “Islamic state”, which does not have aviation. “They are against someone else,” said the commander of the NATO forces in Europe.”
Fighter, bomber, ground-attack and remotely piloted aircraft conducted six airstrikes in Syria:
— Near Hasakah, three strikes struck three separate ISIL tactical units and destroyed three ISIL structures, two ISIL fighting positions and an ISIL motorcycle.
— Near Raqqah, a strike struck an ISIL tactical unit.
— Near Mara, a strike destroyed an ISIL excavator.
Tee hee hee!
Love it, also the brief comments below.

Hmm, comments are not posting.
Regarding Chinese Navy visit to Scand, wonder whether that is to make a show in the Baltic. For the benefit of the Baltic NATO “powers.”

I use to be able to access the latest Carlos Latuff cartoons @ https://latuffcartoons.wordpress.com/
but lately that has not been the case.The link contains the old archive but not the latest drawings like the one above. Can someone point me in the right direction, please?
No one captures the crimes of the empire like Carlos. His cartoons speak volumes and help to educate the masses and undermine the lies of the MSM.
Good Sunday Morning to the Saker – who is out looking at alligators.
Let’s get to the Good stuff:
The preliminaries to an all-out global World War 3 have been raging for some time now.
It is no secret that the War in Europe (Ukraine, and earlier, Yugoslavia, and Georgia,) have involved conflict between Russia and its few allies, against the Zionist American Anglo imperialists (and French and German and most of the smaller European puppet nations).
The Russian and Chinese leaders have attempted to limit this conflict to the “Preliminaries,” and attempt to keep it from becoming the main event. As an analogy, the Russians, and many of us are existing in the Spanish Civil War of 1936-39 stage of global confrontation; and we understand that the Russian and Chinese leaders are attempting to limit the Global Confrontation to that preliminary stage of History, – And Win it There. The Republic must hold, and Franco and his backers must fall. If the imperialists can be broken here, the world conflagration can be prevented.
Referring to the earthshaking events in Syria:
The Saker was brilliant, when he wrote: “It would be a mistake to focus primarily on what will happen next. I would argue that what has already happened is far more significant.”
These are the key points; open your eyes and ears; face the facts; take a deep breath.
1. The Russians are bombing the Zionist American Anglo and French imperialist forces in the Middle East. The Russian leaders took this decision after much thought and hesitation.
2. The Russian leaders made this decision in order to fulfill their Constitutional and Moral Responsibilities to defend the continued survival of their-the Russian people, their nation, and their Slavic brothers and sisters. They could not save their Serbian loved ones in 1990, but they never forgot that the security of Russia lies in a reborn Yugoslavia with a most happy Belgrade and huge access to the Mediterranean. Everything to the east of Yugoslavia reborn will next fall into its natural place.
3. Syria, and then Iraq, and then Kurdistan (reborn), and then Iran, are the places and peoples to lead the counter-attack against the Zionist Nazi enemy. It has begun. In 3 days the results are electric.
In Summary:
The Russians are conducting their second march to Berlin. They thought long and hard about it. At the United States Nations Russia’s elected President, Vladimir Putin, still had not made up his mind. He and his nation got nowhere (as we say) at that Hot Air event. They were forced to realize (and internalize-face the hard fact) that there was no-one currently within the American Oligarchy with the ability to restore America’s sovereignty and, by that route, world political balance.
The Kennedys and their Camelot republic of a 1000 Days are long dead, and former President Jimmy Carter, and the noble former Congressman Ron Paul, never had a chance. The Russian delegation returned home, took a deep breath, looked each other in the eyes, gave some marching orders, and commenced to blow the hell out of the imperialist occupying forces in Syria.
We now understand that all those American Air Sorties (so-called ‘bombing raids’) were just what the Iraqi Government was telling anyone willing to listen, “Resupply Missions” to the Zionist-American founded ISIS Terrorists. The shock of the Zionist-American operatives on the ground as they were being blown to pieces and having their supplies destroyed, (for the first time), must have been something to see. “Help! We are being bombed. Who is bombing us? Is there some mistake?”
At every stage of this war, the Russians are attempting to limit the conflict to the preliminaries. They meet regularly with the Land Thieves in Tel Aviv, talk with CIA Kerry, and tone down their rhetoric against Hollywood Obomber, the fake-pseudo President of the US, head of the pseudo, and unconstitutional government of traitors in Washington DC..
The first counterattack delivered in Syria by the Glorious Russian Air Force was the shot heard around the world (I know I wrote that on this website once before); it is a pleasure to write it again.
For the Democratic Republics!
For the Restoration of and Independence of the American Republic!
I have been saying this for many years! We had mcain with leaders of ISIS and you cant believe they are not being given their marching orders. Just saw mcain foaming in the mouth and yelling about the US shooting down Russian air planes. carter the peanut president let loose the hordes to attack the soviets. Now if such a peace nick can start the global jihadi movement, imagine what a nut case will do. Someone else who know obomber said the guy was not a good liar cause you just have to take everything he say says a lie. It was from an interview for a grant and he said the lies were so thick that it was blatant they were lies. When a 3 km long convoy takes over Iraqi towns, and the people who were supposed to protect them run away.. it should remind you off Iraq 2001 where the Iraqi generals were bribed to walk away.. Now what is amazing is they could not get the Syrian generals to do that even if they got a lot of lower ranking Syrian traitors to do it. Hence the attempt to kill them covertly..
Now CNN is saying the US leads ISIS.. I say ofcourse.. The US lead al queda.. always has.. telling me some guy who frequents strip clubs and pays for prostitutes and lives on a military base is a fanatical suicidal killer.. well maybe a fanatical killer but suicidal? hardly.. unless he was suicided by cheney and bunch..
In Syria they ran into something they didn’t have in Iraq,”loyalty”. Its hard to define,and if you don’t feel it ,its hard to understand.But in Syria,many of the leaders belonged to groups that owe their very survival to the Assad family (Alawites,Christians,secular Sunni).And they know the fate of themselves,their families,and their peoples,if the terrorists gain power.That will engender a great deal of loyalty in someone.So that is one of the big differences between the Syrian situation and the Iraqi situation.
That was not it. The same thing was done to Iraq.. They tried it in Libya but that only worked so far so they had to use nato to destroy it. Syrians saw what happened with Iraq, have you forgotten all the Iraqi’s who welcomed US troops? The generals had all flown away to live in mansions in Florida but the people actually wanted to be liberated. After a decade of sanctions and finding shit in their drinking water they welcomed it. I just shook my head but lots of people got in my face about bad saddam, which I did agree with, was never a fan of saddam or any megalomaniac.. But I also saw the other side, history is a good guide in that respect, see south America and the Aztec’s and such.. North America and the great tribes, canadan and the eskimo’s, Australia and New Zealand and some of the peaceful tribes there were wiped out by the Maori who fled the white invasion. What happened with china, india, Tibet etc.. Now look at the number of Syrian generals who took the money and fled the first chance they got. So a whole bunch of them did leave but the foot soldiers did not have that choice. But once they were out they had no choice but to fight but something funny happened.. Instead of getting bombed, they were offered the chance to join back or go back to civilian life and a lot of them did take that. Which is why there are hardly any Syrians who are fighting the Syrian government. From what I have seen, even those who are because of some reason they cant go back, send their wives and children to go live in government controlled areas.. Also why such a large number of the population still live under government areas.. The terrorists might control 75% of the country but they only control less than 20% of the population. Remember what these terrorists did to entire tribes who opposed them in Iraq.. The entire male populations were massacred. I bet any Syrians still fighting are under the direct control of nato forces. That cartoon is accurate. Russia does not need to bomb all terrorist facilities.. Look for mass exodus of nato advisors and controllers.. Soon followed by the foot soldiers.. This entire thing will end in under 6 months. Once the leaders who give orders are off the battle filed the fanatics wont last for long. In a few months supplies will be real tough and ammo will be in rather short supply. No more resupply missions. No more orders and logistics and satellite images.. We will still have small groups but they wont be effective against army groups. Look at what happened to the LTTE when their logistics ran out.
Peter, Putin’s calling of the Real Evil Empire’s bluff has sent the Zionazis and Judeofascists in particular into a frenzy of fearful hysteria. For example, today’s piece in the Guardian by Nick Cohen, in my opinion the very bottom of the Judeofascist barrel in the UK, smearing not just Moslems and singing the praises of Sabbat Goy stooge ‘Moslems’, but also vilifying Jeremy Corbyn for daring to treat Palestinian, Gazan and south Lebanese untermenschen as human beings, is indicative, I believe, of an evil mind (one of the prime supporters of the aggression and genocide in Iraq)in the grip of existential fear. All plainly psychotic and imbecilic, when all Israel needs to do is give up the phantasies of Eretz Yisrael and treat the Palestinians and their neighbours as fellow human beings. But they absolutely refuse to do so.
Interesting video showing new Chinese artillery shells that don’t need “artillery”.And mortars that aren’t hot to touch,amazing.The Syrians and NAF in Novorossia could certainly use them:
Wouldn’t shoulder fired artillery and mortar shells be less time consuming? I mean, who brings a ruler to the battlefield, to fire shells from an artificial molehill?
True,but having to have (and take with you) artillery pieces,in some situations is impossible.Plus,if the enemy targets them you are out of business.You can have tons of ammo.But without the artillery pieces its worthless to you.With that shown in the video,the shells are the artillery.The enemy can’t just destroy the launcher and they knock out your artillery.The point for me, was to show the cleverness of Chinese weapons designers.Who would have ever thought that the shells could fire “themselves” on a battlefield.
Erdogan in all this, & that Grocery Clerk 3rd Class over there in France.
.
A US analyst supposedly just a private citizen researcher/blogger is Whitney.
Some info here is old, many days, & the way events are moving that’s old!
So, NOV1 to watch out for, as well as OCT 24 (date of those 2 ignominious treaties 1844 & 1860 force-signed by China).
The significance of the Reuters article cannot be overstated. It suggests that there was a quid pro quo for the use of Incirlik, and that Turkey’s demands were accepted. Why is that important?
Because Turkey had three demands:
1–Safe zones in north Syria (which means that Turkey would basically annex a good portion of Syrian sovereign territory.)
2–A no-fly zone (which would allow either Turkish troops, US Special Forces or US-backed jihadi militants to conduct their military operations with the support of US air cover.)
3–A commitment from the US that it will help Turkey remove Assad.
Did Obama agree to all three of these demands before Erdogan agreed to let the USAF use Incirlik?
Yes, at least I think he did, which is why I think we are at the beginning of Phase 2 of the US aggression against Syria. Incirlik changes everything. US bombers, drones and fighters can enter Syrian airspace in just 15 minutes instead of 3 to 4 hours from Bahrain. That means more sorties, more surveillance drones, and more air-cover for US-backed militias and Special Forces on the ground. It means the US can impose a de facto no-fly zone over most of Syria that will expose and weaken Syrian forces tipping the odds decisively in favor of Obama’s jihadi army. Incirlik is a game-changer, the cornerstone of US policy in Syria. With access to Incirlik, victory is within Washington’s reach. That’s how important Incirlik is.
And that’s why the normally-cautious Putin decided to deploy his warplanes, troops and weaponry so soon after the Incirlik deal was signed. He could see the handwriting on the wall. He knew he had to either act fast and turn the tide or accept the fact that the US and Turkey were going to topple Assad sometime after Turkey’s snap elections on November 1. That was his timeline for action. So he did the right thing and joined the fighting. http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article52531.html
An interesting “minor” detail shown in yesterday’s South Front video –
Note (at video time 0:35, say) the legend “TERRITORIAL CONTROL”, where black indicates ISIL controlled areas, red the Syrian government’s, yellow the Kurdish, green the rebel forces (FSA & Al-Qaeda), and green-black striped the mixed ISIS and rebel forces. The video clearly shows that the Russian jets bombed mainly targets in the green (!) territory – meaning that the RF’s primary targets were not ISIL, but the anti-Syrian-government US-supported terrorists (“rebels”)! Apparently, these air-strikes are well coordinated with the Syrian government mopping operations. And all that the Anglo-Zionist organizers can do now is boil mad and drop dead from acute heart failure :-)
It means that Russia is fighting *terrorists* in Syria – it targets both ISIL and the other terrorists (“rebels”) – and all of these are bona-fide Anglo-Zionist creations. We see in real time the Anglo-Zionist power gradually but surely declining…
To do one,you have to do the other.The rebel terrorist areas are the closest to the Russian bases.And it is the area nearest to the populated pro-government regions.To be effective in liberating the whole of Syria the Syrian government needs to secure all the areas they hold.You can’t effectively fight a war when you have rebel areas mis-meshed inside your own areas.If they can secure those “behind the lines” areas.Then they will only have one group of terrorists to be fighting.Not have to hold back soldiers to protect yourself from attacks from behind.The government held areas, are something like the Novorossian areas were last year.Where maps showed “pockets” of UAF troops inside those areas.It took a while but they eliminated all those pockets and secured a stable NAF held territory.I think that should be (maybe is) the Syrian governments strategy as well.Eliminate the rebels in the pockets in Syria,and move in a united assault on the ISIS held regions.As to who holds those rebel areas now.I think it is different groups in different areas.Some are ISIS (from even the MSM reports of the past).Many are al-Nusra.And the others ,various groups of terrorists.Like Russians said today .what is a “moderate terrorist” in Syria.Just “who do the West consider moderates”.While the West tosses that term around constantly.They never seem to pinpoint who “exactly” they are talking about.
Obama says Russian strategy in Syria is ‘recipe for disaster’
The chairman of the Senate armed forces committee also said Russian president Vladimir Putin was “treating the United States with disdain and contempt” over Syria, carrying out airstrikes and “inserting himself into the Middle East in a way that Russia has not been since Anwar Sadat threw them out in 1973”.
When Lawrence of Arizonia speaks, the MIC listens!
they are obviously Drain bAMAGED people in comitee. Russia is at serious war with mortal enemy. Islamic jihadists. Not some “imperial” game paid by gangs…banksters from Wall St. or some semite family. Airspace above Syria is protected and in full control by Russia. They will not trade RF security for US nonsense. If US wrong decode russians, situation could develop in definitely wrong and dangerous way.
OCT4
WASHINGTON (CNN) —Sen. John McCain says that GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump doesn’t understand the problems posed by Russia’s new role in the Syrian conflict.
“I don’t think he understands very well the situation. And he’s entitled to his opinion,” the Arizona Republican said Sunday in an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.”
McCain was pushing back against Trump’s assertion last week that the United States should let ISIS and Syria’s army fight — and let Russia worry about ISIS there. Trump’s comment came as Russia launched air strikes in the region.
South Front has a brilliant new Russian video with English subtitles that everyone will enjoy. It shows how Russia is being called an aggressor again, while the United States is actually committing the aggressive actions. It’s under 4 minutes and very well made – it packs a punch:
Strasbourg (France) (AFP) – Around 12,000 people flocked to hear the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan address an anti-terrorism rally in the French city of Strasbourg Sunday, one a number of his supporters have organised in the run-up to a snap election in Turkey next month.
———————————————————–
Istanbul: Russia’s bombing campaign in Syria is a “grave mistake” and its support for the regime will be judged by history, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned on Sunday.
“The steps Russia is taking and the bombing campaign in Syria are quite unacceptable to Turkey,” Erdogan told reporters at Istanbul airport before leaving for a visit to France.
“(…) Unfortunately, Russia is making a grave mistake,” he said.
Given Moscow’s friendly relations with Turkey, its actions in Syria are “worrying and disturbing,” Erdogan said.
The strikes will “isolate Russia in the region,” he predicted.
ANKARA, Turkey — Turkey’s president says his country has taught Europe and the world a lesson on humanity by hosting 2 million refugees from Syria and Iraq.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Sunday accused European nations of “confining refugees into the depth of the Mediterranean” in a reference to refugees who drown while trying to reach Europe.
He was speaking at a rally in Strasbourg, France, attended by hundreds of Turks, ahead of Turkey’s Nov. 1 elections. The speech was televised live in Turkey.
TEHRAN (FNA)- A senior Iraqi politician revealed that his country along with Iran, Russia and Syria have set up an information exchange center which will pave the ground for the formation of a quadrilateral operations room in campaign against terrorism.
“The information center has been formed some days ago after 6 months of discussions,” Political Advisor to the Head of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq Mohsen Hakim told FNA on Sunday.
Elaborating on the information exchange room, he said that the officer in charge is changed every three months but the reports are provided to the Iranian, Iraqi, Russian and Syrian armies’ joint chief of staff every day to update their information.
Hakim underlined that the information center can be a preliminary step to set up a joint operations room or Centcom.
He further reminded his country’s need to logistical aid and air backup, and said Iraq at present doesn’t need ground forces to fight against the terrorist groups.
TEHRAN (FNA)- Jason Rezaian, an Iranian-American national who is held by Iran for espionage charges, has been imprisoned for his attempts to help the US Senate to advance its regime change plots in Iran, a senior Iranian legislator said citing an IRGC report on Rezaian’s case.
“Based on a report by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) intelligence organization, Jason Rezaian is an Iranian national with US origin and is such an important agent for the Americans that they have made strenuous efforts to free him,” Rapporteur of the parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Nozar Shafiyee told FNA on Sunday.
“Jason Rezaian has had the duty to exercise the thoughts of those people in the US Senate who believe that if the US can revive its pre-Revolution relations with Iran, the Iranian government can be overthrown easily,” he added, citing the report.
An interesting little piece of information I just found out which I wasn’t aware of before and which (together with the Iran/Syria pipeline) explains why Assad “has got to go” according to the western psychopaths :
“Syria has switched all of the state’s foreign currency transactions to euros from dollars amid a political confrontation with the United States, the head of state-owned Commercial Bank of Syria said on Monday.
“This is a precaution. We are talking about billions of dollars,” Duraid Durgham told Reuters.
The bank, which still dominates the Syrian market although private banks have been allowed to set up in the last few years, has also stopped dealing with dollars in the international foreign exchange flows of private clients.
The United States has been at the forefront of international pressure on Syria for its alleged role in the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri a year ago. Damascus denies involvement in the killing.
“It looks like a kind of pre-emptive action aimed at making their foreign assets safer, preventing them from getting frozen in case of any conflict,” said a Middle East economist who requested anonymity”.
The US dollar has to be protected at any cost it seems. Sadam Husein wanted to start selling Iraqs oil in euros instead of dollars and he was murdered and Iraq destroyed as a state, Ghadafi wanted to start selling Libyas oil for gold instead of dollars and he was brutally murdered after being sodomised with a sharp dagger by the wests rabid jihadi dogs and Libya destroyed as a state, now they are trying to do the same thing to Assad and Syria and if they could they would love to do it also to president Putin and Russia, Iran, China. Who is going to be next on the hit list for the evil bastards ? The world better wake up to the evil in their midst and get together to rid the planet of this cancer before it is too late, same as Hitler and his third reich were gotten rid of because the evil is the very same.
Red Crescent Declares Emergency State in West Bank
October 04, 2015 – 23:17
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Palestinian Red Crescent on Sunday declared ‘state of emergency’ after Israeli settlers’ flare-up of violence across the West Bank, including the occupied al-Quds (Jerusalem).

The Palestinian Red Crescent raised the alert status across the West Bank to third degree, declaring a ‘State of Emergency’, WAFA reported.
The Palestinian Red Crescent activated its central operations room at its headquarter in al-Bireh/Ramallah as well as mobilized all volunteers and teams to provide relief to Palestinians against the backdrop of escalated recent settlers’ violence against Palestinians and their properties.
Israeli settlers late Saturday and Sunday – following two separate killing incidents of Israelis by Palestinians – went on a revenge rampage, under the protection of Israeli army forces , against Palestinian civilians and their properties, leading to violent clashes across the West Bank districts, which left dozens of injuries and suffocation cases among Palestinian locals.
Saker, Pat Lang posted a link (in French) reporting that Russian jets drove 4 Israeli jets out of Syrian airspace on Oct. 2. If this is true, that means Putin is serious about guarding Syria from aerial attack. “Is Bibi really this blindly arrogant and stupid? Did Washington greenlight this?” Lang wonders.
Seamus, the Zionazi Air Force will probably suffer from the same problem that the Israeli Aggression Force suffered when it attacked south Lebanon in 2006. After years of doing nothing but terrorise old people and women and children at check-points and murdering stone-throwers with sniper-shots to the head or back as they ran away, when faced by trained, brave, fighters from Hezbollah, they got their arses kicked. The Israeli Bombing Hospitals with Impunity Force might not handle trained opposition terribly well.
Saudi Arabia’s deadly airstrikes in Yemen have continued with warplanes pounding the outskirts of the capital as well as a district in the northwest of the country.
Saudi jets on Sunday targeted the Fag Atan area, located in the mountainous outskirts of the capital Sana’a.
Saudi warplanes also struck trucks carrying much needed food supplies in the northwestern province of Sa’ada. At least three people were killed in the attack.
The Saudi fighter jets also bombed a border area in the same province.
Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has put on display its defense achievements at an exhibition in the capital Tehran.
The week-long event which kicked off on Saturday showcases a bewildering array of military and defense equipment developed and already unveiled by the IRGC’s Navy, including missile and radar systems as well as drones and vessels, reported Fars News Agency.
Among the most important accomplishments displayed at the exhibition were different types of missile systems.
One of the missiles put on show was Saeqeh (Thunderbolt) also known as Kerm-e-Abrisham (Silkworm).
Today at 2:53 PM
Six Russian fighter jets type Multirole Sukhoi SU – 30 SM have intercepted 4 Israeli McDonnell Douglas F-15’s fighter bombers attempting to infiltrate the Syrian coast.The Israeli F 15 warplanes have been flying over Syrian airspace for months and in particular the coast of Latakia, which is now the bridgehead of the Russian forces in Syria.
The Israeli jets would generally follow a fairly complex flight plan and approach Latakia from the sea
On the night of 1 October 02, 2015, six Sukhoi SU-30 Russian SM fighters took off from the Syrian Hmimim airbase in the direction of Cyprus, before changing course and intercepting the four Israeli F-15 fighters off the coast of Syria, that were flying in attack formation.
Surprised by a situation as unexpected and probably not prepared for a dogfight with one of the best Russian multipurpose fighters, Israeli pilots have quickly turned back South at high speed over the Lebanon.
The Lebanese army has officially announced at 2313 Z (local time) that four “enemy aircraft” (Israeli) had crossed the airspace of the Lebanon.
This ‘incident’ between the Russian and Israeli combat aircraft struck with amazement the command of the Israeli air force, which has estimated that a possible dogfight between F-15 Israelis and the Russian Su-30 would have led to the destruction of the four aircraft Israelis.
Israel has strongly protested to Moscow of the incident but the Russians demanded explanations about the presence of Israeli military aircraft in full Syrian airspace.
This incident indicates that the protection of Syrian airspace is now under the protection of the Russian air weapon. What causes gnashing of teeth in Washington.
The incident has been ignored by major news agencies but relays political and media of Israel in the United States, Europe and in the Arab world will redouble their efforts to demonize the Russian support for the Syrian Government.

“Russia’s role During the Civil War. The Czar it may have been Catherine, sent the Russian fleet to both the Pacific and the Atlantic to block the British…”
I would like to add my take on past US relations with Russia.
During the American Civil War (1861-1865), President Abraham Lincoln (1809-1861-1865) received unexpected support from Russia when Tsar Alexander II (1818-1855-1881), said that: ‘The Union was essential to maintaining the world balance of power…’ and ‘… if France or Britain gave help to the South, Russia would consider this an act of war’.
Tsar Alexander II conveyed his views via the 10 July 1861 dispatch from Prince Aleksandr Gortchakov, Minister of Foreign Affairs to Mr de Stoeckl, Russian Ambassador at Washington.
Then Tsar Alexander II backed his words with action and ordered the Russian Pacific Fleet to San Francisco harbour and the Russian Baltic Fleet to New York harbour. The Admirals of the Fleets were given sealed orders and told to report to President Lincoln in the event of war with Great Britain or France.
It is worth noting that Lincoln had thwarted the money lenders when he refused their exorbitant interest war-loans and instead had printed his own money and government bonds to fund his war effort. On 14 April 1865, just five days after Lincoln won the war, he was assassinated.
A year later, on 4 April 1866, Tsar Alexander II faced the first of many assassination attempts! On hearing this awful news, the United States sent Gustavus Fox (Assistant Secretary of the Navy) on a special mission (in a naval ship with escort vessels) to personally, ‘Congratulate the Emperor on his lucky escape from death and to thank the Russian people for their friendship’.
Never before had a message been conveyed from one country to another in such a grand manner – this unique act clearly expressed America’s gratitude to Russia.

Concerning the attack by US AC 130- gunship on the hospital in Afghanistan, killing doctors and medical support, patients and other collaterals.
The investigation will be conducted by the Dutch, the Australians, the Ukrainians and all are sworn to secrecy.
The OSCE will be in Afghanistan by Christmas 2016 or 2017, whichever comes later.
Don’t let the Donbass militia touch anything at the hospital until they get there.
Oh, the verdict is already in. Putin ordered the attack and Russia was flying the US warplane.
There will be a special court to pronounce judgement and punish the Russians.
Meanwhile, more sanctions will be put on the Russian economy.
Mats, I just posted this on the succeeding article, but I will put it here as well, we seem to be on the same page.
Now that it is quite clear that ISIS/al Qaeda is a US mercenary force, it is significant that the US and Afghan forces just destroyed Kunduz after it was taken over by the Taliban. The Taliban is an enemy of ISIS and of the US and its Afghan puppet. The heroin trade runs through Aghanistan. This is a critical theater of the war which can easily spread into Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, etc. from northern Afghanistan.
LOL
Congratulations to Latuff – you are a genius to explain all with some clever pen strokes.
A picture paints a thousand words.
The fact that ISIS have grown from strength to strength over the past few years with US planes in the sky, and suddenly in a matter of a few days their positions are being dismantled by Russian planes and their members forced to flee to safer zones over the borders – is a testimony to the fact that the US has been shepherding this terror group and assisting its missions on the ground.
The CIA spends years paying, training, and supporting ISIS and the Russians scattered ISIS like sheep in a few days. I love it!
A billion dollars a year from the CIA alone, never mind all the other financing from the Gulf and the rest of the vassal states in the West.
RR
Mind you, that is the question. We’ve heard plenty about the bombings, and I’ve hypothesized that these bombings are likely to be more serious than the Western bombings, and co-ordinated with the Syrian army and Hezbollah, and combined with resupply of same, so should lead to results where the Western bombings didn’t.
But I haven’t yet heard much about whether that has actually begun to happen, whether the Syrian armed forces and their allies have actually begun to make gains. Are our chickens hatching, or have we begun to count a titch early?
The best move to end the carnage would be if an unfortunate accident was to befall the evil swine Erdogan. He’s about to rig an election to secure more power to continue his jihad. I am impressed at how well he faked ‘falling out’ with Israel.

Yeah Cameron – the only thing that will ensure is your destruction A-hole, if that doesn’t get the porker out nothing will. Keep digging Cameron your doing a fine job. Of course I think he is talking to the Kremlin myself. As if Russia can be threatened. Putin would have never given that speech if he thought he could be…without destroying the enemy. Not a chance. What a fool.
RR
Cameron is just a recidivist liar and a molester of deceased pigs.
Some may find the last part of Mr. Mumblebrain’s comment a tad overdone, but apparently it is literally true–some sort of stupid student stunt in his university days.
England is the only real enemy of Russia, france, Germany, Europe and of rest of world.
Both world wars were plotted by England
That evil country has been allowed to exist too long atleast 100 years morethan it should havd. England should have been wiped out of map and divided into small plots atkeast 100 years ago when it was at brink of defeat by Germans in world war which englandxhersrlf had plotted to mske Germany fight Russia.
Yes, Carlos Latuff’s cartoons are always spot on [well, in may, many cases]. – link to Latuff’s WordPress cartoons.
When I saw the above cartoon a couple of days ago, it nearly made me ‘pimp.’
Is it just me or did Latuff really manage to get the bear’s face to look like Putin [or vice versa]?
It’s *wonderful* watching US officials having meltdowns now that a real military power with competent intelligence gathering capabilities is scrubbing out the US-Israel created fake-ISIS stain. Stick that in your eretz-Israel pipe and smoke it, you Washington whores.

Russia bombed CIA base in Syria! HA HA HA HA HA! eat dirt.
Yep. One of the airstrikes hit an area primarily held by rebels backed by the Central Intelligence Agency and allied spy services, U.S. officials said, catapulting the Syrian crisis to a new level of danger and uncertainty
U.S. Defense Secretary Ash Carter said Russia’s approach to the Syrian war — defending Assad while ostensibly targeting extremists — was tantamount to “pouring gasoline on the fire.”
“I have been dealing with them for a long time. And this is not the kind of behavior that we should expect professionally from the Russian military,” Carter said at a Pentagon news conference.
The U.S. and its allies were angry at the Russians on many scores: that they are supporting Assad; that they aren’t coordinating their actions with the existing, U.S.-led anti-Islamic State coalition; that they provided terse notice only an hour before their operations; that they demanded the U.S. coalition stay out of Syrian airspace; and that they struck in areas where anti-Assad rebels — not Islamic State — operate.
Jim Stone RESPONSE:
I hope Russia does more of this. Anyone with as little as 3 well functioning neurons knows the U.S. is ISIS and the CIA is the support for ISIS. COME ON NOW, RUSSIA, YOU HAVE NUKES, GROW SOME BALLS, DO SOME HOUSE CLEANING AND MAKE NO APOLOGIES. God, 20 years ago I never thought I’d ever say that.
HEADLINE SHOULD BE:
Russia mops up America with their cheapest low class fighters and bombers! Yep, they just used the antiquated TU-95 and the mega cheap SU-25. That’s what America gets for lying about everything, that is what America gets for BEING ISIS. There is no way Russia can do anything in Syria that will clean up this mess without hitting American “intelligence” because that is all the opposition to Assad is composed of, no matter what face is put on that opposition.
This is EXACTLY WHY Russia hit the U.S. when going after “ISIS”
Isis is a psy op, run from offices in Washington D.C. and many foreign satellite bases. The fact that ISIS is a psy op staging company is irrefutable, and they do really fake looking beheadings with CIA/Mossad actors, CPR dolls and British rappers.

I love the way you placed his speech on the birthchart of US. btw I use that chart for US also.

If Russia gave the US forewarning of its targets, the Yanks would warn their terrorist allies to scram. Russian jets are legally in Syria at the invitation of the internationally recognised Government. US and stooge jets are not, and their intrusion into Syrian airspace is an aggression, the ‘supreme crime’ under International Law.
Good for them! I hope they can get rid of the rebels and help Assad to stabilize the nation.
This will probably get me in trouble with the ‘authorities’ here but what the heck…

@ mod,
Q; ***until they re-incarnate – mod
R; Energy never ceases to exist. On a molecular level, we ‘live’ on. Fe; the hemoglobin in my blood contains iron particles. Iron can only be made in the core of a dying star, so yes, in that sense everything lives on for ever, but I most certainly hope, I won’t be aware which of my current molecules are part of what, after my death :o)
Daniel Rich…the eternal molecule…is an even more ridiculous theory than reincarnation…I don’t know how these ‘scientists’ come up with these idiotic theories to avoid the concept of re-incarnation, that the ancient world on every continent believed in.
Matter cannot be destroyed in its essence, just like energy. If you cannot accept that, Ann, then you cannot accept how the universe functions and how life goes about forming itself. And that’s too bad.
I don’t know why they can’t both be true.
And reincarnation is not at all inconsistent with Christianity. Jesus never preached against it. In fact, it can be argued that he endorsed the concept. But the Council of Nicea put a stop to such “heresies.”
“… And reincarnation is not at all inconsistent with Christianity. …”
Both are old wives superstitions.
For an answer to your assertions on both topics I would suggest you read Mark Cahill’s “One Heartbeat Away. Your Journey into Eternity.” He is a very fine writer and Apologist. Atheism doesn’t have a leg to stand on… This universe was designed… And not by committee. (C:
er, I thought Christians go to either heaven or hell.
only if you follow stupid dogmas of RC church and all its copycats….not Russian Orthodox…its for real…but all other western churches are copycats of RC and that is where it all started to go wrong.
Wait . . . Russian Orthodox doesn’t do Heaven and Hell? And is potentially optional about reincarnation? How interesting. So what is their stance on what happens when you die?
Salam Daniel Rich,
Reminds me the short story called, $1.98. Where a mere human being saves the life of a Rat. The rat turns out to be King of Rats. So, the King wants to pay back the human, but being so small he can only pay back in small.
The guy ask for a gorgeous girl he is in love. Eventually, the King of Rats solves the problem and grants the wish of the man. He breaks downs everything in a human and turns out to be $1.98
Quoting all this my childhood memory, with inflation we might be upto $20 these days.
Best regards,
Mohamed
@ Mohamed,
My grams told me, “S/he who has all the answers, asks no questions.”
To which I replied, “What did you just say?”
:o)
Salam Daniel Rich,
I was just agreeing with you that, “Energy never ceases to exist.” It simply changes form, e.g. from Mechanical Energy to Electrical Energy.
The story is very old, just old, old like me. Basically, if one breaks down the chemicals in human body, it turns out to be $1.98
Basically, the story was about the humility of mankind.
It reminds me one of my favorite Rock n Roll song by Kansas:
“I close my eyes only for a moment, and the moment’s gone
All my dreams pass before my eyes, a curiosity
Dust in the wind, all they are is dust in the wind
Same old song, just a drop of water in an endless sea
All we do crumbles to the ground, though we refuse to see
Dust in the wind, all we are is dust in the wind”
Mohamed
mohamed….that’s like ‘all the matter human (and other mammals) have is 98% water….
Salam Sister Ann,
The Muslims like Christians don’t believe in “Reincarnation”. The “Cow Worshiping People” who came out of Egypt to Palestine, and took them 40 years to reach Palestine, they had the belief of “Reincarnation”. They assimilated themselves with the Arabs who were mostly Monotheism and took their belief. Some of them parted this belief to the early Christians of the Levant.
My Jewish friend tells me that Hebrew was not dead for about 25 centuries, it was dormant. Dead or dormant means the same thing. However, he does agree that it was “Revived or Reincarnated” from Arabic in 19th century.
Both the Septuagint and the Masoretic Text are not real McCoy. These are both transliteration of the TaNaKh in Hebrew language. So, we are back to the history of Hebrew language, a dead or dormant language for 25 centuries.
The Tribe has changed lots of things, including the history of Hebrew language and they got the Romans to accept the TaNaKh being the “True Word of God” as Old Testament and the concept of “Chosen People”
Old Testament is nothing but woven tales of old ladies, but by Christianity (largest population) accepting the “Old Testament” being the “True Word of God”, they have empowered “The Tribe” with the concept of “Chosen People”.
Best regards,
Mohamed
Mohamed,
Werent the Hindus – around a heck of a long time – ‘Cow-worshipping people’? Doesn’t Hinduism pre-date the Abrahamic religions of the M.E.?
And didn’t that part of the world midwife Buddhism, and the doctrine of reincarnation?
Curious to know how you assimilate this.
Salam eimar,
Well said! :)
I usually joke that the Zoroastrians (Hindus) civilization was well established before the conception of Adam and Eve of Judeo/Christianity. There was a Christian monk who took all those begat and came with that Adam and Eve are about less than 6000 years old. Go figure!
Islam (submit) is the same religion which came on all mankind. Cultures and societies moved away from Islam (submit) and then came another Prophet to remind them.
Juedo/Christianity and Abrahamic religions are derogatory terms, which leaves half of the world population out. Both Zoroastrians and Hinduism are beautiful religions and both are believers of the Monotheism. Therefore, the Juedo/Christianity and Abrahamic religions don’t have monopoly on Monotheism.
The Aryans (Persians/Iranians) language is Sanskrit, from which which we get Greek, English and other languages and so forth.
The Semite language is Arabic, which is the central language of all Semite dialects, and from it we get Farsi, Urdu, Hindi and so forth. Hindi used to be written with Arabic scripts but now after Indira Gandhi, it is written with Sanskrit script.
The Hindu religious terms like bRahma, bRahman and bRahim are Arabic terms describing Allah. The first verse of Holy Quran is, “In the name of Allah, who is Rahman and Rahim”. Rahm is the Womb and Rahma is Mercy, thus God/Allah Mercy comes from the Womb.
Rahman is Unconditional Mercy and Rahim is Eternal Mercy.
So these people who came out from Egypt with Moses were not Monotheistic. When they met Arabs, they adopted the religion of Monotheistic Arabs and claimed it as their own. Thus, the Old Testament is nothing but woven tales.
They also parted their belief about reincarnation to the Arabs, such as the early Christians of Levant.
The Holy Quran doesn’t use the degradation term of Judeo/Christianity, it uses the term “People of The Book (singular)”. This Quranic term is all inclusive of Zoroastrians (Hindus), Jews, Christians and Muslims.
Best regards,
Mohamed
Mohamed,
Your mundane knowledge about cow worshipping people is laughable, but i will give you a short insight into it. The whole world when in need of spirituality heads to india, bali or russia. Now you can ask why russia, check out the stonehedge of russia and the artifacts found there. Hindus have never migrated from egypt or wheresoever ever, they have migrated only from india outside.. If ever you quote some one, please think twice before you post, as the person you quote will definately have a high value page in wiki and everyone here knows the authenticity of wiki. Hinduism in its pure form does not preach conversion either with sops or sword.
Check the history and india and hindustan has given refuge to all the people from the world and only the ungrateful jews screwed india. As much as muslim world or christian world is now dominated by jews or their slaves, so is hinduism. Hinduism respects every religion and is the most tolerant religion in history.

Good Sunday Morning to all at saker.is.
Good Sunday Morning to the Saker – who is out looking at alligators.
Let’s get to the Good stuff:
The preliminaries to an all-out global World War 3 have been raging for some time now.
It is no secret that the War in Europe (Ukraine, and earlier, Yugoslavia, and Georgia,) have involved conflict between Russia and its few allies, against the Zionist American Anglo imperialists (and French and German and most of the smaller European puppet nations).
The Russian and Chinese leaders have attempted to limit this conflict to the “Preliminaries,” and attempt to keep it from becoming the main event. As an analogy, the Russians, and many of us are existing in the Spanish Civil War of 1936-39 stage of global confrontation; and we understand that the Russian and Chinese leaders are attempting to limit the Global Confrontation to that preliminary stage of History, – And Win it There. The Republic must hold, and Franco and his backers must fall. If the imperialists can be broken here, the world conflagration can be prevented.
Referring to the earthshaking events in Syria:
The Saker was brilliant, when he wrote: “It would be a mistake to focus primarily on what will happen next. I would argue that what has already happened is far more significant.”
These are the key points; open your eyes and ears; face the facts; take a deep breath.
1. The Russians are bombing the Zionist American Anglo and French imperialist forces in the Middle East. The Russian leaders took this decision after much thought and hesitation.
2. The Russian leaders made this decision in order to fulfill their Constitutional and Moral Responsibilities to defend the continued survival of their-the Russian people, their nation, and their Slavic brothers and sisters. They could not save their Serbian loved ones in 1990, but they never forgot that the security of Russia lies in a reborn Yugoslavia with a most happy Belgrade and huge access to the Mediterranean. Everything to the east of Yugoslavia reborn will next fall into its natural place.
3. Syria, and then Iraq, and then Kurdistan (reborn), and then Iran, are the places and peoples to lead the counter-attack against the Zionist Nazi enemy. It has begun. In 3 days the results are electric.
In Summary:
The Russians are conducting their second march to Berlin. They thought long and hard about it. At the United States Nations Russia’s elected President, Vladimir Putin, still had not made up his mind. He and his nation got nowhere (as we say) at that Hot Air event. They were forced to realize (and internalize-face the hard fact) that there was no-one currently within the American Oligarchy with the ability to restore America’s sovereignty and, by that route, world political balance.
The Kennedys and their Camelot republic of a 1000 Days are long dead, and former President Jimmy Carter, and the noble former Congressman Ron Paul, never had a chance. The Russian delegation returned home, took a deep breath, looked each other in the eyes, gave some marching orders, and commenced to blow the hell out of the imperialist occupying forces in Syria.
We now understand that all those American Air Sorties (so-called ‘bombing raids’) were just what the Iraqi Government was telling anyone willing to listen, “Resupply Missions” to the Zionist-American founded ISIS Terrorists. The shock of the Zionist-American operatives on the ground as they were being blown to pieces and having their supplies destroyed, (for the first time), must have been something to see. “Help! We are being bombed. Who is bombing us? Is there some mistake?”
At every stage of this war, the Russians are attempting to limit the conflict to the preliminaries. They meet regularly with the Land Thieves in Tel Aviv, talk with CIA Kerry, and tone down their rhetoric against Hollywood Obomber, the fake-pseudo President of the US, head of the pseudo, and unconstitutional government of traitors in Washington DC..
The first counterattack delivered in Syria by the Glorious Russian Air Force was the shot heard around the world (I know I wrote that on this website once before); it is a pleasure to write it again.
For the Democratic Republics!
For the Restoration of and Independence of the American Republic!
IMAGINE
I have been saying this for many years! We had mcain with leaders of ISIS and you cant believe they are not being given their marching orders. Just saw mcain foaming in the mouth and yelling about the US shooting down Russian air planes. carter the peanut president let loose the hordes to attack the soviets. Now if such a peace nick can start the global jihadi movement, imagine what a nut case will do. Someone else who know obomber said the guy was not a good liar cause you just have to take everything he say says a lie. It was from an interview for a grant and he said the lies were so thick that it was blatant they were lies. When a 3 km long convoy takes over Iraqi towns, and the people who were supposed to protect them run away.. it should remind you off Iraq 2001 where the Iraqi generals were bribed to walk away.. Now what is amazing is they could not get the Syrian generals to do that even if they got a lot of lower ranking Syrian traitors to do it. Hence the attempt to kill them covertly..
Now CNN is saying the US leads ISIS.. I say ofcourse.. The US lead al queda.. always has.. telling me some guy who frequents strip clubs and pays for prostitutes and lives on a military base is a fanatical suicidal killer.. well maybe a fanatical killer but suicidal? hardly.. unless he was suicided by cheney and bunch..
In Syria they ran into something they didn’t have in Iraq,”loyalty”. Its hard to define,and if you don’t feel it ,its hard to understand.But in Syria,many of the leaders belonged to groups that owe their very survival to the Assad family (Alawites,Christians,secular Sunni).And they know the fate of themselves,their families,and their peoples,if the terrorists gain power.That will engender a great deal of loyalty in someone.So that is one of the big differences between the Syrian situation and the Iraqi situation.
That was not it. The same thing was done to Iraq.. They tried it in Libya but that only worked so far so they had to use nato to destroy it. Syrians saw what happened with Iraq, have you forgotten all the Iraqi’s who welcomed US troops? The generals had all flown away to live in mansions in Florida but the people actually wanted to be liberated. After a decade of sanctions and finding shit in their drinking water they welcomed it. I just shook my head but lots of people got in my face about bad saddam, which I did agree with, was never a fan of saddam or any megalomaniac.. But I also saw the other side, history is a good guide in that respect, see south America and the Aztec’s and such.. North America and the great tribes, canadan and the eskimo’s, Australia and New Zealand and some of the peaceful tribes there were wiped out by the Maori who fled the white invasion. What happened with china, india, Tibet etc.. Now look at the number of Syrian generals who took the money and fled the first chance they got. So a whole bunch of them did leave but the foot soldiers did not have that choice. But once they were out they had no choice but to fight but something funny happened.. Instead of getting bombed, they were offered the chance to join back or go back to civilian life and a lot of them did take that. Which is why there are hardly any Syrians who are fighting the Syrian government. From what I have seen, even those who are because of some reason they cant go back, send their wives and children to go live in government controlled areas.. Also why such a large number of the population still live under government areas.. The terrorists might control 75% of the country but they only control less than 20% of the population. Remember what these terrorists did to entire tribes who opposed them in Iraq.. The entire male populations were massacred. I bet any Syrians still fighting are under the direct control of nato forces. That cartoon is accurate. Russia does not need to bomb all terrorist facilities.. Look for mass exodus of nato advisors and controllers.. Soon followed by the foot soldiers.. This entire thing will end in under 6 months. Once the leaders who give orders are off the battle filed the fanatics wont last for long. In a few months supplies will be real tough and ammo will be in rather short supply. No more resupply missions. No more orders and logistics and satellite images.. We will still have small groups but they wont be effective against army groups. Look at what happened to the LTTE when their logistics ran out.

Peter, Putin’s calling of the Real Evil Empire’s bluff has sent the Zionazis and Judeofascists in particular into a frenzy of fearful hysteria. For example, today’s piece in the Guardian by Nick Cohen, in my opinion the very bottom of the Judeofascist barrel in the UK, smearing not just Moslems and singing the praises of Sabbat Goy stooge ‘Moslems’, but also vilifying Jeremy Corbyn for daring to treat Palestinian, Gazan and south Lebanese untermenschen as human beings, is indicative, I believe, of an evil mind (one of the prime supporters of the aggression and genocide in Iraq)in the grip of existential fear. All plainly psychotic and imbecilic, when all Israel needs to do is give up the phantasies of Eretz Yisrael and treat the Palestinians and their neighbours as fellow human beings. But they absolutely refuse to do so.
Interesting video showing new Chinese artillery shells that don’t need “artillery”.And mortars that aren’t hot to touch,amazing.The Syrians and NAF in Novorossia could certainly use them:
https://www.facebook.com/814926108591799/videos/891237664293976/
@ Uncle Bob 1,
Wouldn’t shoulder fired artillery and mortar shells be less time consuming? I mean, who brings a ruler to the battlefield, to fire shells from an artificial molehill?
The above is what the first TOW and/or JAVELIN missiles must have looked like – link to youtube
True,but having to have (and take with you) artillery pieces,in some situations is impossible.Plus,if the enemy targets them you are out of business.You can have tons of ammo.But without the artillery pieces its worthless to you.With that shown in the video,the shells are the artillery.The enemy can’t just destroy the launcher and they knock out your artillery.The point for me, was to show the cleverness of Chinese weapons designers.Who would have ever thought that the shells could fire “themselves” on a battlefield.
@ Uncle Bob 1,
The close proximity between shooter and target + time needed to set it up = certain death.
It’s a clever idea, granted, but impracticable in reality, imo.
This is what happens when one does the job seriously – link SANA
News you won’t find in Mindless Streams of Malarkey – [MSM] – where poppycock fills the airwaves.
Erdogan in all this, & that Grocery Clerk 3rd Class over there in France.
.
A US analyst supposedly just a private citizen researcher/blogger is Whitney.
Some info here is old, many days, & the way events are moving that’s old!
So, NOV1 to watch out for, as well as OCT 24 (date of those 2 ignominious treaties 1844 & 1860 force-signed by China).
The significance of the Reuters article cannot be overstated. It suggests that there was a quid pro quo for the use of Incirlik, and that Turkey’s demands were accepted. Why is that important?
Because Turkey had three demands:
1–Safe zones in north Syria (which means that Turkey would basically annex a good portion of Syrian sovereign territory.)
2–A no-fly zone (which would allow either Turkish troops, US Special Forces or US-backed jihadi militants to conduct their military operations with the support of US air cover.)
3–A commitment from the US that it will help Turkey remove Assad.
Did Obama agree to all three of these demands before Erdogan agreed to let the USAF use Incirlik?
Yes, at least I think he did, which is why I think we are at the beginning of Phase 2 of the US aggression against Syria. Incirlik changes everything. US bombers, drones and fighters can enter Syrian airspace in just 15 minutes instead of 3 to 4 hours from Bahrain. That means more sorties, more surveillance drones, and more air-cover for US-backed militias and Special Forces on the ground. It means the US can impose a de facto no-fly zone over most of Syria that will expose and weaken Syrian forces tipping the odds decisively in favor of Obama’s jihadi army. Incirlik is a game-changer, the cornerstone of US policy in Syria. With access to Incirlik, victory is within Washington’s reach. That’s how important Incirlik is.
And that’s why the normally-cautious Putin decided to deploy his warplanes, troops and weaponry so soon after the Incirlik deal was signed. He could see the handwriting on the wall. He knew he had to either act fast and turn the tide or accept the fact that the US and Turkey were going to topple Assad sometime after Turkey’s snap elections on November 1. That was his timeline for action. So he did the right thing and joined the fighting.

Lawrence Wilkerson: The Travails of Empire.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=ckjY-FW7-dc
Colonel Wilkerson was chief of staff to colin powell,(sec state 2001-2005).
“the empire is in deep,deep trouble”
I can just see the latest Frau Trump playing Eva Braun.
An interesting “minor” detail shown in yesterday’s South Front video –
Note (at video time 0:35, say) the legend “TERRITORIAL CONTROL”, where black indicates ISIL controlled areas, red the Syrian government’s, yellow the Kurdish, green the rebel forces (FSA & Al-Qaeda), and green-black striped the mixed ISIS and rebel forces. The video clearly shows that the Russian jets bombed mainly targets in the green (!) territory – meaning that the RF’s primary targets were not ISIL, but the anti-Syrian-government US-supported terrorists (“rebels”)! Apparently, these air-strikes are well coordinated with the Syrian government mopping operations. And all that the Anglo-Zionist organizers can do now is boil mad and drop dead from acute heart failure :-)
What does that mean? Russia in not targeting ISIL afterall and is just trying to keep Assad in power?
It means that Russia is fighting *terrorists* in Syria – it targets both ISIL and the other terrorists (“rebels”) – and all of these are bona-fide Anglo-Zionist creations. We see in real time the Anglo-Zionist power gradually but surely declining…
To do one,you have to do the other.The rebel terrorist areas are the closest to the Russian bases.And it is the area nearest to the populated pro-government regions.To be effective in liberating the whole of Syria the Syrian government needs to secure all the areas they hold.You can’t effectively fight a war when you have rebel areas mis-meshed inside your own areas.If they can secure those “behind the lines” areas.Then they will only have one group of terrorists to be fighting.Not have to hold back soldiers to protect yourself from attacks from behind.The government held areas, are something like the Novorossian areas were last year.Where maps showed “pockets” of UAF troops inside those areas.It took a while but they eliminated all those pockets and secured a stable NAF held territory.I think that should be (maybe is) the Syrian governments strategy as well.Eliminate the rebels in the pockets in Syria,and move in a united assault on the ISIS held regions.As to who holds those rebel areas now.I think it is different groups in different areas.Some are ISIS (from even the MSM reports of the past).Many are al-Nusra.And the others ,various groups of terrorists.Like Russians said today .what is a “moderate terrorist” in Syria.Just “who do the West consider moderates”.While the West tosses that term around constantly.They never seem to pinpoint who “exactly” they are talking about.
This really needs to be passed around folks…exactly the sort of thing that raises consciousness and sticks….
Great Work.

Senator John McCain said on Sunday the US was now engaged in a proxy war with Russia in Syria, as a result of “an abdication of American leadership” on the part of the Obama White House.
Obama says Russian strategy in Syria is ‘recipe for disaster’
The chairman of the Senate armed forces committee also said Russian president Vladimir Putin was “treating the United States with disdain and contempt” over Syria, carrying out airstrikes and “inserting himself into the Middle East in a way that Russia has not been since Anwar Sadat threw them out in 1973”.
When Lawrence of Arizonia speaks, the MIC listens!
they are obviously Drain bAMAGED people in comitee. Russia is at serious war with mortal enemy. Islamic jihadists. Not some “imperial” game paid by gangs…banksters from Wall St. or some semite family. Airspace above Syria is protected and in full control by Russia. They will not trade RF security for US nonsense. If US wrong decode russians, situation could develop in definitely wrong and dangerous way.
How dare they disrespect us! I suspect TPTB are both frothing at their mouths and s***ing at the same time…
OCT4
WASHINGTON (CNN) —Sen. John McCain says that GOP presidential front-runner Donald Trump doesn’t understand the problems posed by Russia’s new role in the Syrian conflict.
“I don’t think he understands very well the situation. And he’s entitled to his opinion,” the Arizona Republican said Sunday in an interview with CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union.”
McCain was pushing back against Trump’s assertion last week that the United States should let ISIS and Syria’s army fight — and let Russia worry about ISIS there. Trump’s comment came as Russia launched air strikes in the region.
http://www.kcci.com/politics/mccain-trump-doesnt-understand-syria/35646328
Yes, if Trump gets elected, he’ll have Trump sent to a “re-education camp” to make sure POTUS does the “right thing”.
South Front has a brilliant new Russian video with English subtitles that everyone will enjoy. It shows how Russia is being called an aggressor again, while the United States is actually committing the aggressive actions. It’s under 4 minutes and very well made – it packs a punch:
(Must See Video) Russia Is Aggressor… Again
Russians lately are really starting to call the US empire out as the murderous liar that it is.
World headline stories “Erdogan Turkey”; some results shocking.
Erdogan far behind in polls…goes to France to campaign!

Strasbourg (France) (AFP) – Around 12,000 people flocked to hear the Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan address an anti-terrorism rally in the French city of Strasbourg Sunday, one a number of his supporters have organised in the run-up to a snap election in Turkey next month.

Istanbul: Russia’s bombing campaign in Syria is a “grave mistake” and its support for the regime will be judged by history, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan warned on Sunday.
“The steps Russia is taking and the bombing campaign in Syria are quite unacceptable to Turkey,” Erdogan told reporters at Istanbul airport before leaving for a visit to France.
“(…) Unfortunately, Russia is making a grave mistake,” he said.
Given Moscow’s friendly relations with Turkey, its actions in Syria are “worrying and disturbing,” Erdogan said.
The strikes will “isolate Russia in the region,” he predicted.

ANKARA, Turkey — Turkey’s president says his country has taught Europe and the world a lesson on humanity by hosting 2 million refugees from Syria and Iraq.
Recep Tayyip Erdogan on Sunday accused European nations of “confining refugees into the depth of the Mediterranean” in a reference to refugees who drown while trying to reach Europe.
He was speaking at a rally in Strasbourg, France, attended by hundreds of Turks, ahead of Turkey’s Nov. 1 elections. The speech was televised live in Turkey.

Iran, Iraq, Russia, Syria to Set Up Joint Operations Room Soon
TEHRAN (FNA)- A senior Iraqi politician revealed that his country along with Iran, Russia and Syria have set up an information exchange center which will pave the ground for the formation of a quadrilateral operations room in campaign against terrorism.
“The information center has been formed some days ago after 6 months of discussions,” Political Advisor to the Head of the Islamic Supreme Council of Iraq Mohsen Hakim told FNA on Sunday.
Elaborating on the information exchange room, he said that the officer in charge is changed every three months but the reports are provided to the Iranian, Iraqi, Russian and Syrian armies’ joint chief of staff every day to update their information.
Hakim underlined that the information center can be a preliminary step to set up a joint operations room or Centcom.
He further reminded his country’s need to logistical aid and air backup, and said Iraq at present doesn’t need ground forces to fight against the terrorist groups.
TEHRAN (FNA)- Jason Rezaian, an Iranian-American national who is held by Iran for espionage charges, has been imprisoned for his attempts to help the US Senate to advance its regime change plots in Iran, a senior Iranian legislator said citing an IRGC report on Rezaian’s case.
“Based on a report by the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) intelligence organization, Jason Rezaian is an Iranian national with US origin and is such an important agent for the Americans that they have made strenuous efforts to free him,” Rapporteur of the parliament’s National Security and Foreign Policy Commission Nozar Shafiyee told FNA on Sunday.
“Jason Rezaian has had the duty to exercise the thoughts of those people in the US Senate who believe that if the US can revive its pre-Revolution relations with Iran, the Iranian government can be overthrown easily,” he added, citing the report.
In late July 2014, Iran confirmed that four journalists, including Washington Post correspondent Jason Rezaian, had been arrested and were being held for questioning.
http://english.farsnews.com/newstext.aspx?nn=13940712001397
An interesting little piece of information I just found out which I wasn’t aware of before and which (together with the Iran/Syria pipeline) explains why Assad “has got to go” according to the western psychopaths :
“Syria has switched all of the state’s foreign currency transactions to euros from dollars amid a political confrontation with the United States, the head of state-owned Commercial Bank of Syria said on Monday.
“This is a precaution. We are talking about billions of dollars,” Duraid Durgham told Reuters.
The bank, which still dominates the Syrian market although private banks have been allowed to set up in the last few years, has also stopped dealing with dollars in the international foreign exchange flows of private clients.
The United States has been at the forefront of international pressure on Syria for its alleged role in the assassination of former Lebanese Prime Minister Rafik al-Hariri a year ago. Damascus denies involvement in the killing.
“It looks like a kind of pre-emptive action aimed at making their foreign assets safer, preventing them from getting frozen in case of any conflict,” said a Middle East economist who requested anonymity”.
The US dollar has to be protected at any cost it seems. Sadam Husein wanted to start selling Iraqs oil in euros instead of dollars and he was murdered and Iraq destroyed as a state, Ghadafi wanted to start selling Libyas oil for gold instead of dollars and he was brutally murdered after being sodomised with a sharp dagger by the wests rabid jihadi dogs and Libya destroyed as a state, now they are trying to do the same thing to Assad and Syria and if they could they would love to do it also to president Putin and Russia, Iran, China. Who is going to be next on the hit list for the evil bastards ? The world better wake up to the evil in their midst and get together to rid the planet of this cancer before it is too late, same as Hitler and his third reich were gotten rid of because the evil is the very same.

Red Crescent Declares Emergency State in West Bank
October 04, 2015 – 23:17
TEHRAN (Tasnim) – Palestinian Red Crescent on Sunday declared ‘state of emergency’ after Israeli settlers’ flare-up of violence across the West Bank, including the occupied al-Quds (Jerusalem).
printPrint
The Palestinian Red Crescent raised the alert status across the West Bank to third degree, declaring a ‘State of Emergency’, WAFA reported.
The Palestinian Red Crescent activated its central operations room at its headquarter in al-Bireh/Ramallah as well as mobilized all volunteers and teams to provide relief to Palestinians against the backdrop of escalated recent settlers’ violence against Palestinians and their properties.
Israeli settlers late Saturday and Sunday – following two separate killing incidents of Israelis by Palestinians – went on a revenge rampage, under the protection of Israeli army forces , against Palestinian civilians and their properties, leading to violent clashes across the West Bank districts, which left dozens of injuries and suffocation cases among Palestinian locals.
Saker, Pat Lang posted a link (in French) reporting that Russian jets drove 4 Israeli jets out of Syrian airspace on Oct. 2. If this is true, that means Putin is serious about guarding Syria from aerial attack. “Is Bibi really this blindly arrogant and stupid? Did Washington greenlight this?” Lang wonders.
Seamus, the Zionazi Air Force will probably suffer from the same problem that the Israeli Aggression Force suffered when it attacked south Lebanon in 2006. After years of doing nothing but terrorise old people and women and children at check-points and murdering stone-throwers with sniper-shots to the head or back as they ran away, when faced by trained, brave, fighters from Hezbollah, they got their arses kicked. The Israeli Bombing Hospitals with Impunity Force might not handle trained opposition terribly well.

Saudi Arabia’s deadly airstrikes in Yemen have continued with warplanes pounding the outskirts of the capital as well as a district in the northwest of the country.
Saudi jets on Sunday targeted the Fag Atan area, located in the mountainous outskirts of the capital Sana’a.
Saudi warplanes also struck trucks carrying much needed food supplies in the northwestern province of Sa’ada. At least three people were killed in the attack.
The Saudi fighter jets also bombed a border area in the same province.
http://www.presstv.ir/Detail/2015/10/04/431867/Iran-IRGC-missile-system-launch-pad-drone
Iran’s Islamic Revolution Guards Corps (IRGC) has put on display its defense achievements at an exhibition in the capital Tehran.
The week-long event which kicked off on Saturday showcases a bewildering array of military and defense equipment developed and already unveiled by the IRGC’s Navy, including missile and radar systems as well as drones and vessels, reported Fars News Agency.
Among the most important accomplishments displayed at the exhibition were different types of missile systems.
One of the missiles put on show was Saeqeh (Thunderbolt) also known as Kerm-e-Abrisham (Silkworm).
I sure hope that Russia doesn’t bomb the headquarters of ISIS…….
Bombing Washington DC could start a war.
well, maybe there is a shred of truth in this.. time will tell.
http://peakoil.com/publicpolicy/iran-readies-massive-syrian-ground-invasion
like one of the comments say, “what a crock of propaganda this is”…
testing, testing 1 2 3:
Today at 2:53 PM
Six Russian fighter jets type Multirole Sukhoi SU – 30 SM have intercepted 4 Israeli McDonnell Douglas F-15’s fighter bombers attempting to infiltrate the Syrian coast.The Israeli F 15 warplanes have been flying over Syrian airspace for months and in particular the coast of Latakia, which is now the bridgehead of the Russian forces in Syria.
The Israeli jets would generally follow a fairly complex flight plan and approach Latakia from the sea
On the night of 1 October 02, 2015, six Sukhoi SU-30 Russian SM fighters took off from the Syrian Hmimim airbase in the direction of Cyprus, before changing course and intercepting the four Israeli F-15 fighters off the coast of Syria, that were flying in attack formation.
Surprised by a situation as unexpected and probably not prepared for a dogfight with one of the best Russian multipurpose fighters, Israeli pilots have quickly turned back South at high speed over the Lebanon.
The Lebanese army has officially announced at 2313 Z (local time) that four “enemy aircraft” (Israeli) had crossed the airspace of the Lebanon.
This ‘incident’ between the Russian and Israeli combat aircraft struck with amazement the command of the Israeli air force, which has estimated that a possible dogfight between F-15 Israelis and the Russian Su-30 would have led to the destruction of the four aircraft Israelis.
Israel has strongly protested to Moscow of the incident but the Russians demanded explanations about the presence of Israeli military aircraft in full Syrian airspace.
This incident indicates that the protection of Syrian airspace is now under the protection of the Russian air weapon. What causes gnashing of teeth in Washington.
The incident has been ignored by major news agencies but relays political and media of Israel in the United States, Europe and in the Arab world will redouble their efforts to demonize the Russian support for the Syrian Government.

“Russia’s role During the Civil War. The Czar it may have been Catherine, sent the Russian fleet to both the Pacific and the Atlantic to block the British…”
I would like to add my take on past US relations with Russia.
During the American Civil War (1861-1865), President Abraham Lincoln (1809-1861-1865) received unexpected support from Russia when Tsar Alexander II (1818-1855-1881), said that:
‘The Union was essential to maintaining the world balance of power…’ and ‘… if France or Britain gave help to the South, Russia would consider this an act of war’.
Tsar Alexander II conveyed his views via the 10 July 1861 dispatch from Prince Aleksandr Gortchakov, Minister of Foreign Affairs to Mr de Stoeckl, Russian Ambassador at Washington.
Then Tsar Alexander II backed his words with action and ordered the Russian Pacific Fleet to San Francisco harbour and the Russian Baltic Fleet to New York harbour. The Admirals of the Fleets were given sealed orders and told to report to President Lincoln in the event of war with Great Britain or France.
It is worth noting that Lincoln had thwarted the money lenders when he refused their exorbitant interest war-loans and instead had printed his own money and government bonds to fund his war effort. On 14 April 1865, just five days after Lincoln won the war, he was assassinated.
A year later, on 4 April 1866, Tsar Alexander II faced the first of many assassination attempts! On hearing this awful news, the United States sent Gustavus Fox (Assistant Secretary of the Navy) on a special mission (in a naval ship with escort vessels) to personally, ‘Congratulate the Emperor on his lucky escape from death and to thank the Russian people for their friendship’.
Never before had a message been conveyed from one country to another in such a grand manner – this unique act clearly expressed America’s gratitude to Russia.

My, how times have changed! If Putin survived an assassination attempt, our gummint would wonder what went wrong….
Concerning the attack by US AC 130- gunship on the hospital in Afghanistan, killing doctors and medical support, patients and other collaterals.
The investigation will be conducted by the Dutch, the Australians, the Ukrainians and all are sworn to secrecy.
The OSCE will be in Afghanistan by Christmas 2016 or 2017, whichever comes later.
Don’t let the Donbass militia touch anything at the hospital until they get there.
Oh, the verdict is already in. Putin ordered the attack and Russia was flying the US warplane.
There will be a special court to pronounce judgement and punish the Russians.
Meanwhile, more sanctions will be put on the Russian economy.
Mats, I just posted this on the succeeding article, but I will put it here as well, we seem to be on the same page.
Now that it is quite clear that ISIS/al Qaeda is a US mercenary force, it is significant that the US and Afghan forces just destroyed Kunduz after it was taken over by the Taliban. The Taliban is an enemy of ISIS and of the US and its Afghan puppet. The heroin trade runs through Aghanistan. This is a critical theater of the war which can easily spread into Turkmenistan, Tajikistan, etc. from northern Afghanistan.
The Russians, Chinese and the rest of SCO are prepared to deal with them.
Pakistan and India are now fully in SCO. Iran will be shortly.
Plenty of manpower and firepower to deal with ISIS and the Taliban.
The US has no friends anywhere in South Asia or Central Asia.
It is like the way SE Asia became. Only the drug lords do business with the US.

Israel is carrying out false flag rocket attacks from Gaza in order to carry out airstrikes against Gaza.

After the Russian intervention, the US/ISIS/al Qaeda coalition may be resupplying their forces with more advanced weapons directly through Turkey.
