Do not misunderestimate the perverse creativity among the trained fraudsters posing as US government in coming up with a new perfidious action. That’s the trick of fascism: Not to be limited by any qualms or potential accountabilities. When the latter become a dawning threat, double down. Sowing death knows no limits as long as your are among the last dying.
There is no other option in the minds of the lunatics running Washington it’s Pentagon and it’s State Department with the assholes and mouths both being interchangeable…
Let’s not kid ourselves.
America made the conscientious decision to “double down” after the bank bailouts in 2008 by increasing it’s dwindling global control of energy resources requiring the immediate fix of hopeless “fracking” CONUS, and extending it’s military footprint with the invasion(s) and decimation of Libya, Syria and East Ukraine with $150 Trillion in debt to pay for these nefarious project(s) with all the liability borrowed against it’s children’s… children(s)… children(s)… futures!
Why bluff in an escalating exercise in brinkmanship? Most likely we may see rising incidents of terrorist operations against all those in the Resistance Bloc including the minor nations in the Bloc’s orbit in order to try and drive a wedge into such relationships. When they do happen Kirby will say,”I told you so.” The reply to this should be something along the lines of not fearing the terrorist and a willingness to take them on despite their actions, not like some other nations that only mouth the words of getting serious about stamping out terrorism, but in reality only stamping out their citizen’s rights and freedoms as a nuisance in the way of governments actions to represent the western Apex Elite oligarchs in their world hegemonic quest.
“… another reason for which the West wanted Russia to get involved in the Syrian mess, is to ‘absorb’ the Jihadist fanatism in its soil. If the suicide bombings start to ‘shift’ from Western targets to Russian territories, Putin will have to face another big problem, apart from any other potential ‘color revolutions’, a dead end in Syria, or, renewed Western sanctions and further economic trouble.”
This execrable Kirby and his ilk believe they are preparing Americans for war. But. Is it possible to prepare Americans for what the next war will mean for them?
Given Kirby is a complete idiot who bluffs on record without a clue what he is talking about, it seems wrong to treat anything he might have said seriously.
When you know that “Abu Ghraib” was “Mission Accomplished” 12 years ago losing hearts and minds around the globe. And your so-called diplomats are allowed to utter the most bellicose vitriol (without losing their jobs) because the lot of them have completely and utterly “lost their minds”…
Speaking as an American with more than 50 years on this planet, I can honestly say that since 9/11 the actions of my Country and it’s government have made being the “worst loser” an art form with no equal!
Kerry has said there is no point negotiating with Russia and the US will proceed by other means.
What are the implcations?
We have the fortuitous release of the MH17 ‘Investigation’ report. Without surprise, Russia is deemed culpable. The only surprise is the extent to which the JIT has had to go to fit the ‘evidence’ to the desired outcome. Apparently, now over 100 people were involved in the exercise of moving a Buk from Russia on a misguided tour through east Ukraine. They have also used a US conceptual design of the warhead rather than the actual design in order to get the shrapnel spread to fit their desired pattern. They have actually declared this Buk had a unique warhead with the fuse at the opposite end to the actual design in order to narrow down the shrapnel spread with the missile fired head on.
Anyway, a hypotheseis: The US will use this bs to try to get the Russians excluded from the UN Security Council. This would i) remove the obstacle to the US to forcing through a no fly zone ii) have Russia declared a rogue nation and and iii) protect the US from Russian response.
The problem with hypothesis lies with China. It would veto any such attempt, if for no other reason than they will be next if they don’t. Will the US try to buy them off with some deal over the South China Sea? That would serve the US by splitting China and Russia. Once Russia is down, then China could be taken down later [in the mind of the Anglo-Zionist nutjobs, that is].
We are in line for an overdose of Power in the next few weeks.
Ass covering but not at all for internal job keeping purposes. This is the fallout of the extreme displeasure of the financial backers behind this tragedy and protracted conflict, when they realized that US Administration and Army are acting like paper tigers, instead of the real ones they thought they were feeding with bribes and money.
Say you hired the best there is in mercenary circles and you end up nowhere after 5 years. So you get mad and ask your contractors to show teeth, at least to save face among your peers. These M-E walking ATMs suddenly got it: They have been robbed, Nigerian way. Some (the small state actors) are now doubting that preparation H (like Hillary) will soothe their pain. The perspective that their purchased war might end up in the hands of The Donald is indeed potential yuuuge pain, even if Little Marco was right.
Add JASTA and the Oil price seemingly glued to the floor and you get the picture. Russia did change the rules of Mecca sickos poker.
For foreigners or youngsters who never saw the advertisements on tv decades ago, the H in Preparation H stands for hemorrhoids, the abysmal fate of the butt-hurt individual. Or nation.
I like it as the counter-Hillary 2016 slogan. “Preparation Hillary will not work to shrink the painfully swollen veins of the MIC!. This H (harridan from Hell) will just make those veins bleed even more”
Like dealers say, in dealing the last card of seven card stud, “Here it comes, down and dirty!
And certainly bloody, as well, in case the last, down card is the Queen of Spades, Hitlery Clinton.
Actually, I hope the commentator is correct but it appears that the real commander in chief of the US, Ashton-Carter in league with Gen Votel of Centcom Mid East/EurAsia, has an agenda which he will carry out. This Sheik has another world view:
As for the meme that there is a division in the ruling class of the USA over the conduct of their intervention in Syria, where is the proof? And who are the spokesmen for such divisions and where is the discussion of such divisions? Either this is because to quote the line in the movie Snowden, ” secrecy is security, and security is victory” or there is no fundamental division at all.
Well, there clearly is a division in the US ruling class. Much as the Obama regime has been a disgusting parade of Sheikh huggers and Nazi appeasers, Obama was never too keen to start WW3 with Russia or to really bet his whole kitty on Al Qaeda in Syria. It is clear to those who have eyes to see that the US military, CENTCOM and NATO had other plans when the feckless John Kerry signed off on the Syrian ceasefire and the US Air Force with NATO cooperation strafed and killed 60-80 Syrian troops on Sept. 17th. This is why Vitaly Churkin had to rather undiplomatically ask just who is in charge of American policy?
The only division among the US’ shadow ruling class is the absolute inbred morons who wish to pick a fight with a nuclear-armed state, with no idea about the consequnces – and those who wish to pick a fight with a nuclear-armed state, with some idea about the consequences and so treading more carefully.
The real ‘US ruling caste’ can be found in Tel Aviv. They want Syria destroyed, one way or another, so that they can ‘redeem’ ie steal, those bits promised to ‘Eretz Yisrael’ by their psychotic God. Indeed Deputy Knesset Speaker Smotrich openly declared on Israeli TV a few months ago, that Damascus belongs to the Jews. It’s the Oded Yinon Plan in action.
Bluffing. The ruling class does not want nuclear war. But they want to intimidate and isolate Russia, and force her to spend incessantly on defense. Then the time will be right for a color revolution at the Kremlin, cheered on by the Russian Oligarchs who want to be junior members of global corporatism, and who don’t care at all what happens to the Russian masses or the state itself.
History in reverse? The USSR breaks up into warring princedoms? Just like The Ukraine and pre-Mongol Rus’?
That would suit the Anglo-Zionist Imperial quest for hegemony very well.
Namely the rumored kalibr cruise missile strike on a secret coordination center in Syria that supposedly killed a number of US, Israeli, Saudi, Turk and other high-level operatives engaged in training and supplying terrorists…
Lots of people are wondering whether this event actually happened or not…it was only sparsely reported (Sputnik Arabic and Fars) then quickly disappeared from the news…never mentioned in Western media…
Now this commentator makes a good point that the US is obviously in a fit-to-be-tied rage…as evidenced by the Kirby outburst, but also sharp Kerry rhetoric…but why so angry…?
Obvious answer is their Nusra clients are getting creamed in Aleppo…in good part due to Russian air strikes…
But the level of these angry outbursts seems to point to something more than just Aleppo impotence…a more basic reaction…which lends credence to the theory that they are angry as hell because the Russians hit them where it hurts…right at their own spooks…
Naturally if this strike did in fact occur, the US and co. would never admit to it…since that would expose the depth of their deception about their entire Syria narrative…
Russians would likewise want to keep it quiet because that’s how the game works in dirty pool…
The missiles were indeed fired from The Flot and there was no official report of their target. On the other hand there is enough background noise to pretty much verify that the missiles did indeed hit a very high value target deep in a narrow valley in the rugged territory near Aleppo. One would think the ensuing shrieks from the likes of what’s his face et al could give some semblance of verification that the target was indeed a command and control node that was officially ‘not there’. And is now officially not there.
This little launch sent several messages as did the Kalibr launches from the Caspian Sea some months ago. One, Mother can and will touch you wherever you are. Two, Russia knows exactly who you are and where you are. Three, Kalibr has literally pinpoint accuracy, range don’t matter. Four, think of war with Mother. Think US east coast and west coast and 1500 kilometers in from coast and understand that if this comes to real you and Russia war that the continental US will no longer be protected by the oceans east and west of same. Think target rich environment with military targets all over H and creation. And, my dear Canadians, don’t think you won’t be visited. Mother has not forgotten your actions of late.
This magnificent and information-rich rant should be in a movie. Too bad movies good enough to contain it are no longer made. I am thinking Dr Strangelove caliber.
Well, Franz, eventually someone of import in the movie industry may take the time to read my novel and the short story and understand them. If so it’s possible an information rich movie may be made. Any good fiction has numerous nuggets of truth.
At my age and location rants are not only allowed but expected.
No doubt the Kalibr family is a potent weapon system…
We can judge this by the stunned reactions from the West after the Syria demonstrations…
Launch platforms are equally impressive…especially the subs…super-quiet Kilo-class diesel-electric…and nuclear Yasen and Borei-class…
Air-launched Kalibr is probably ready to go too and may be demonstrated soon…Tu-142 sub-hunter mentioned as possible launch platform…would also think the Tu-22M and others…
Not mentioned as much as Kalibr is another formidable weapon, the MKB Raduga Kh-101 air-launched cruise missile…here is a shot of a Tu-160 dropping one against Syria targets…note the Su30 escort…
Tu-160 carries 12 ‘101s on two rotary launchers (think revolver that drops down from bomb bay)…this is a stealthy (0.01 square meter RCS), subsonic cruise missile with a range up to 5,500 km…and accuracy of 5 m…can be conventional HE or nuclear-tipped…
Yes range does matter in a standoff weapon…US AGM-86 has a published range of less than half…2,400 km…same subsonic speed (M0.8) and launched from subsonic B-52…
Rumored max range of Kh-101 is said to be 10,000 km…
Should mention here ‘101’s air launch platform…White Swan (Tu-160)…world’s biggest ever combat aircraft has no match in the world…flying at twice the speed of sound and carrying 40 tons of ordnance…50 percent bigger than Concorde at 275 tons max takeoff weight…
Also the Tu-95…still a capable heavy bomber…I’ll take the Bear over Stratofortress any day of the week…both still going strong after six decades…
Problem with low-flying subsonic cruise missiles is that they can be defended by fighter jets with look-down, shoot-down radar…that’s why supersonic terminal flight stage of Kalibr is a big deal…not easy to defend…also why Kh-101 is stealthy…
Dear Auslander:
I live just south of Fort Lewis and the Bangor Nuclear sub base in Washington. Do you think I should move? Further east, further south or what? I wonder. I really like my five acres with a good water well and polite distance from the capitol city of Olympia. what should I do?
Don’t worry, Jim, I doubt you’ll be seeing Kalibr’s floating past your porch. As an aside my lass has again categorically refused to go to the mainland and spend some time with the children in their very safe haven.
“quickly disappeared from the news…never mentioned in Western media…”
Russian successes and Western failures are not reported in the MSM. Just ask the New York Times and the Washington Post. This is the American Propaganda M.O. since the West lost Crimea and Russia reasserted its dominion in Sevastopol.
And today the MSM is weeping alligator tears over the bombing deaths of Aleppoians — especially the children. As if no one died in Pee Wee Bush’s invasion of Iraq 13 years ago. As if the countries whose boots the American and English MSM lick, were not ten thousand times worse with the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan and the fire bombing of Dresden, Germany.
Tired of fighting, the Allies didn’t care how many women and children they killed as long as they got home before the pot roast was done.
If you want a job with the MSM, you can’t to any better than buying yourself a copy of “Hypocrisy for Dummies.”
OK. So an unknown retired officer of the US Navy whose current vocation is reading from a teleprompter read some threatening passages and passed them on verbatim. Big deal.
Kirby was what is know as a remf, never having ‘been there done that’, in other words a warrior he ain’t. Now, when a non warrior reading a teleprompter or prepared script and who was nothing but a rear echelon sufferer of the Oedipus Complex threatens one of the strongest countries in this world with violence and terror few, if any, will take this lovely minion seriously. If he is serious about his threats I’m sure his desires can be facilitated and he will be taken where, to coin a phrase, ‘the Blue Max grows’. I’ll even pay for his ticket and give him a crash course in how to use one of Comrade Kalashnikov’s finest odes to world peace before patting him on the bumm and sending him onward to match his deeds with his mouth.
Gimme a break, this clown makes Psaki look almost sane and that truly boggles the mind. An officer he may have been but a gentleman he will never be.
I think you’re entirely right, Auslander, and this video and your comments do much to assuage the utter revulsion and confused anger that people with a clue over here are feeling today. Isn’t Kirby the guy who wore his alma mater’s football jersey to a press conference the day of a big game, in order to “impress” the foreign reporters? It’s beyond embarrassing, it’s barely f-ing literate and a display of just how incompetent a government filled with brown-nosing ladder-climbers can degenerate. Caracalla’s Roman PR hacks were pros in comparison.
Back in the 70’s I had family in Academia who were funded by USAID and State. In those days, most of these people were intelligent useful idiots, as it were, who really believed they were doing projects to save the third world and promote democracy and human rights. They were in retrospect totally brainwashed most of the time, but for crying out loud, they at least had to behave themselves, put on a good show, and act diplomatic at conferences. The incompetence of Psaki, Kirby, et al is mind-blowing, but it may be our saving grace — our deep state, state and minions are not as clever and brilliant as they imagine themselves to be, by a very long shot. You just can’t fake such a pitiful performance, nor do competent agencies hire such boneheads to represent them in public. Thanks again for invaluable perspectives from Krim.
I am assuming at this point that the Russian staff are fully appraised of the contents of HC’s private unsecured email server and are waiting for events to unfold. The US never refuted or retracted a word of the Manning and Snowden revalations. With a security leak of these proportions there is no element of geopolitical surprise. Has anyone considered the theory that HC is in fact a deep penetration Kremlin mole? …….jus’ musin’
“Meanwhile, Russian experts are concerned that harsh rhetoric might quickly turn into direct clashes, with Moscow and the US engaging in an all-out ‘war by proxy’ in Syria. Analysts have pointed out that Russia has not been able to achieve even limited cooperation with the Obama administration on Syria, and things might get even worse under his successor.
“Therefore,” the analyst suggested, “the scenarios for proxy conflicts with the US can take severe and dramatic turns – that much was confirmed by Kirby’s remarks. Washington did not allow itself to make such frank statements even during the Cold War. Factually, behind Kirby’s words is a direct threat.”
Ermakov stressed that “it’s clear that Russia’s response to this threat will consist of holding to our position in Syria, whatever the US may be willing to stoop to.”
“In fact, this was the same thing the US did in Afghanistan; really the subtext of Kirby’s statement was exactly that – a threat to move the Afghan scenario to Syrian soil. In Afghanistan, we can recall, the Mujahedeen also transitioned from using ancient Enfield rifles to modern weapons, after the US revised its strategy.”
Ultimately, whatever happens next, Ermakov emphasized that “if Russia were to show weakness in response to the US threat, the situation would shift fundamentally [against it] in all respects, including in negotiations and the working group on restoring Syria; therefore, there will not be any significant concessions on our part.”
I do not exclude that the new president, whoever it may be, will be put in a situation where he or she will not be able to drastically turn the tables.”
“One has to understand that the US president is just the tip of the iceberg. Behind him is a team of actors and groups that support him. Perhaps the worsening situation in Syria today was created so that the new leader will not leave the desired ‘policy line’.”
The last quote about forcing the hand of the new american regime probably is a major factor behind israel having their pindo pets go on the offensive, and not just against Syria. This gives a clinton regime a headstart, since I assume this regime would only incorporate minor changes from the out going obama regime. Also, responses from the victims of these israeli-american aggressions can be used to whip up war fever, which translates into psywar to help war monger clinton’s campaign. The rally round the flag bs.
The hand forcing, I think, is manly aimed at a possible trump regime, who doesn’t appear to be enthusiastic about war against Syria or Russia. The more involved the u.s. is, the more difficult it will be to reverse it.
Another piece of Certified Human Garbage. Itching for the Nobel Peace Prize, perchance?
Looks like an alcoholic, by the way. Neatly explains what’s ‘moderate’ about the Pindos’ preferred head-choppers; they don’t seem to bother too much about un-Islamic behaviour.
He certainly makes some good points, but I’m afraid his overall optimism is a big mistake–I think this seems to be fairly widespread in Russia. He wants “heavy hitters” to make threats, well then listen to Ash Carter and Hillary. There is no question that the Anglo-Zionist empire is hegemonic and will not give up this ambition. There is no question it will keep pushing the Russians and Chinese until they submit or until the hegemon believes that it really won’t submit. Once that point is reached all hell will finally break loose. They will keep probing and escalating everywhere until that point is reached.
Putin to be convicted of crime against humanity by West in a western court. Julie Bishop Foreign Minister Australiar expects confirmation of the 100 persons involved in the targeting and shooting down of Mh17 by this year end or certainly by end of January. Stitching up Russian leadership for this tragedy is a pathetic smear.
To give you an idea of what Julie Bishop is, you ought to know of her past as a lawyer. Years ago she represented asbestos peddlers in cases for compensation brought by victims of asbestos-related lung cancer, asbestosis and mesothelioma. Bishop was central in the tactic hit upon, where these court cases were constantly delayed by legal manoeuvring, knowing that these dreadful diseases killed quickly, the victims often lasting only months, in very great pain. When they died, the court cases lapsed, and, no doubt, Bishop got a bonus. Just another Imperial toady and psychopath, a female of the species, like Powers, Clinton, Albright and the Rices et al.
During Lam Son 719, the U.S. planners had believed that any North Vietnamese forces that opposed the incursion would be caught in the open and decimated by the application of American aerial might, either in the form of tactical airstrikes or airmobility, which would provide ARVN troops with superior battlefield maneuvering capability. Firepower, as it turned out, was decisive, but “it went in favor of the enemy…Airpower played an important, but not decisive role, in that it prevented a defeat from becoming a disaster that might have been so complete as to encourage the North Vietnamese army to keep moving right into Quang Tri Province.”[86]
The number of helicopters destroyed or damaged during the operation shocked the proponents of U.S. Army aviation and prompted a reevaluation of basic airmobile doctrine. The 101st Airborne Division alone, for example, had 84 of its aircraft destroyed and another 430 damaged. Combined U.S./ARVN helicopter losses totaled 168 destroyed and 618 damaged.[87] Wiki

There is a bigger game afoot that I guesstimate maybe only one person out of a hundred thousand are even slightly aware of and out of that small number even less than 10% fully understand. Count me among the number of those being only slightly aware. So please bear with me because I’m firmly convinced that a knowledge and a understanding of the new architecture and technology that this ‘bigger game’ employs are fundamental to having a more accurate world view. It’s because I never see the results of this ‘bigger game’ considered in any of the hundreds of pages I read concerning current events that I offer up my humble opinion.
A look back over the last 5 or 6 hundred years will prove that the history of the worlds reserve currencies runs parallel the worlds empires. Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, France, Britain, US, and now that baton of reserve status is being passed to the WORLD. Do you understand?? Of course you don’t, I barely do myself and I have been deeply involved in researching this financial technology for the last couple of years. One would imagine after the all time I put into this I would have a better knowledge of my topic. The hard truth is, I’m really not exceptionally bright, and the folks designing this new system (built on the back of the old system) are very bright and love to use arcane financial language, what a headache. Nevertheless we can learn enough of it to get the gist of it, and we must if we are to gain a more accurate picture of this new financial system’s effect on current world events.
At this point I feel I must give it up to my mentor, JC Collins and his blog “Philosophy of Metrics.” Please allow me to quote from his most recent post as a example of his important contribution to a deeper understanding of world events.
“The historic moment which we have long discussed has arrived. As of Oct. 1, 2016, the Chinese renminbi is a part of the weighting composition of the Special Drawing Rights (SDR) of the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The RMB joins the USD, British pound, eruo, and Japanese yen in the SDR basket, and will see it’s international status develop even further as the once unipolar USD dominated international monetary system begins it’s transformation into a multilateral framework.”
That is the first paragraph, the following is the last.
“The vast majority know nothing of this transformation of the international monetary system from what has existed since the end of WW2. October 1, 2016 will come and go with little fanfare. Some may begin to sense that something has changed,but exactly what that change is will not be well defined. Hidden in the march of online commentary, and ignored by the mainstream media, can be found the monetary truth. a truth that can no longer be denied. -JC”
That ‘monetary truth’ JC speaks of is the “bigger game ” I speak of, and firther contend is the major driver of current world events. To learn more I recommend you at least peruse JC’s blog site,”Philosophy of Metrics” and include the information available in your world view, if you do not, you could find yourself looking “cockeyed.” You understand??
US is the “masters of propaganda”, and they have been the leading propagandists of the world with its Hollywood style lies. But nowadays, lesser and lesser People take anything American serious, as the world is clearly splitting in to those who follow the truth and the evil ones. But unfortunately, far, far to many swallow anything coming from the land of lies to easy.
There is no division in the US ruling class. When Gen MacArthur refused to accept the policies of Truman, the commander in chief at the time, he was FiReD! OK. Ashton-Carter and Votel ignore the plan of the current President and Sectary of State and, indeed, go one step further and actively sabotage it. And Nothing, I repeat, Nothing happens to them.
So I just cannot accept the very simplistic meme that “there obviously is a split in the ruling class”. It looks as if either they all are on board with letting Ashton-Carter become defacto Commander-in-Chief or else what is going on is hardly described by–“there obviously is a split in the ruling class”. It appears more like what is happening is an unopposed soft coup.
Another meme is : “Soros funds Black Lives Matter ergo the whole rather shapeless movement operating under that umbrella is ruled by NGO type thugs.” Does this really describe reality on the ground? It did not describe what was happening in Ferguson which gave rise to the rather amorphous slogan over a year ago. There are many other organizations in the Afro American community and their members may or may not use that slogan among other slogans which reflect the interests of the community. Black Lives Matter when All Lives Matter.
Beware facile slogans and easy conclusions. Something is very rotten in Denmark (USA).
My thinking on that is, the different departments of government have stopped obeying Obama in anything they think contradicts what the new President wants done. Since Obama was foolish enough to let himself be co-opted early on by the neo-cons. And allow them to grow even more powerful.Now he is feeling the “blowback” from that.They believe (rightly or wrongly) Clinton will succeed Obama very soon. They know she is a confirmed neo-con like they are. So they are taking actions,if not direct orders ,from her and her minions. As in the past,when the old King lays dying,the court officials,move to embrace the ” New King”. The only thing able to stop them is if a “pretender” raises up as a usurper to take the throne. And the PTB are counting on “the Donald” not being that “one”.
I mostly agree with the content of the video and with most of the comments here, but it seems that PolitRussia.com is now engaging in the same slick brainwashing technique that has become common in the West, especially in religious broadcasts and videos; that of using certain kinds of background music to help evoke a desired emotional response. One religion even tried to copyright the technique under the name “Heartsell” (the LDS Church’s media arm Bonneville Corporation). Having become aware of the technique, I oftentimes find it distracting, even when I agree with the message as I do here.
KIrby’s implied threat echos the implicit threat Bandar made to Putin in 2013 of sending terrorists to the Sochi Winter Olympics if Putin did not accept a deal to stop supporting Assad. I didn’t think Bandar was arrogant, but rather he was utterly fxxkxxg stupid. Threatening Putin with terrorist attacks??? You gotta be kidding….
The “evildoers” are being exposed daily it seems. But we can be sure little if any of those reports will reach the Western public (certainly not the US public). Now the UN is officially blaming the humanitarian disaster in Syria on the US and EU sanctions:
Very nice video! Well rounded, laid back delivery: straight forward and intelligent reasoning, with attention and some repetition of details and facts, completely understated, dismissive humour and creating the perfect USA counter balance. Nice example of the way the Russian mind thinks and expresses itself; different from the western way
In Deir ez-Zor, Syria, The Syrian Army was attacked in its positions with weapons which the ISIS does not possess. And it becomes clear which participant in this Syrian war owns the aircraft which were used to kill Syrian Army officer and men, as well as Russian personel. A combination of A-10 Warthog tactical air support planes and Drones was used to first make bombing runs, followed by murderous mopping up operations by the Drones which the US military used to shoot Syrian troops in the chaos aftermath, and this included both downed and wounded as well as those who could still move. These attacks were coordinated with the counter-offensive staged by ISIS terrorists who moved in to re-take the positions after the US air strikes were completed.
The State Department, or the Pentagon may be able to get away with denying the attack was intentional, and claiming they made a huge mistake, but what will they do about hundreds of Syrian witnesses who watched the carnage they committed? These witnesses do not report an incident that can be characterized as a “mistake.” Is the US now going to just dismiss these reports, or, will they move to eliminate the witnesses who could testify and convict the US as a perpetrator of war crimes? The witnesses consistently report a concerted and painstakingly executed offensive committed by another country, the USA, which has not even bothered to formally declare war against them. No war declaration because if the United States tried it, they would be ruled as unjustified by the United Nations which so far has rejected AND repudiated their claims of atrocities allegedly committed by the Assad regime. In each case, UN investigators and officials have not been able to confirm the made-up charges following their false flag attacks carried out against the civilian population.
By now, it should be plain and incontrovertible to all observers that the United States, and allies are present in Syria illegally and in numbers. It cannot be denied at all that supporting a “popular uprising” against an autocratic dictatorship has been a ruse, and fabrication from the start. In other words, there is no civil war going on in Syria, this is naked international aggression against a sovereign nation, it is piracy of the first order, and it is crimes against humanity. The prime minister of Syria has said that the United States should be ashamed of itself after this aggression, while feigning a “war against terror” but that says nothing of the cold blooded murder that has been committed. The United States has committed the final act which destroys its last shred of credibility as a force for peace in our world, and its government has committed crimes which can only be answered by the American people removing this regime from power: All members of the Executive branch from the President on down, and all members of a complicit Congress which not only enabled this despicable act, but encouraged the President to do so.
This report rides that line where the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency ( C.I.A. ) secretly operated until September 18, 2016 amongst what is called the Dead Cities of Syria dating back to the 1st century ( likely even earlier ); once long forgotten places – no more.
My report intentions are simply trying to heighten awareness levels on a variety of educationally stimulating subjects surrounding some points of human interest not easily discovered by population masses glued to only their cable television sets, laptop computers, or smartphones; providing broadcasts albeit from multinational corporate mainstream media or seemingly independent alternative forms of entertainment.
‘Dead Cities’ are difficult to reach without a guide so, your adventure now begins.
September 10, 2016:
Russia TU 214 military Communication Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance aircraft was deployed near the Sam’an Mountain ( also known as “Mount Simeon” etc. ) region outside NorthWest Aleppo, Syria whereupon it detected a subterranean signals intelligence ( SIGINT ) remote communications operation command post bunker of the Central Intelligence Agency ( C.I.A. ) occupied with nearly ‘250’ multinational intelligence officers, from:
America;
Israel;
France;
United Kingdom;
Saudi Arabia;
Qatar;
Turkey; and,
Other Nations.
On September 17, 2016 the United States led France and Australia military fighter-bombers to strike eleven ( 11 ) United Nations ( UN ) food relief supply trucks earmarked for arrival at a food distribution warehouse for the people of Aleppo, whereafter several Syria Army encampments holding Russia military soldiers were also bombed and killed.That strike, from at-least four ( 4 ) bunker-busting cruisemissle type surface-to-surface missiles known as their KALIBR ( Caliber ) missiles, were fired from an offshore Syria position where a Russia military warship discovered that C.I.A. bunker had been directing Al-Nusra Army ( ANA ) Saudi Arabia commanders leading terrorist strikes against Syria, Russia and China allied military positionings in Syria:
I am currently engaged in capturing a copy of the ‘C.I.A. intelligence command post audio communication transmission’ surrounding the C.I.A. intelligence bunker in Syria strikes, which Russia aerial intelligence surveillance confirmed proving the C.I.A. called-in the Turkey military air strike bombing on UN food supplies delivered by 11 supply trucks to the civilian distribution warehouse of humanitarian relief for more than 265,000 people without food, water, medicine, hospitals, electricity and other basic human necessities.
The following day on September 18, 2016 a Russia warship launched KALIBR cruisemissiles striking a secret CIA intelligence communications command and control center bunker located northwest of Aleppo, Syria within the mountains of St. Simeon where Syria’s ancient historical sites are located and used to cover-up the 250 multinational Western intelligence staff insIde the CIA bunker that was completely destroyed killing all US, UK, Saudi, Qatari, and others within.
Do not misunderestimate the perverse creativity among the trained fraudsters posing as US government in coming up with a new perfidious action. That’s the trick of fascism: Not to be limited by any qualms or potential accountabilities. When the latter become a dawning threat, double down. Sowing death knows no limits as long as your are among the last dying.
There is no other option in the minds of the lunatics running Washington it’s Pentagon and it’s State Department with the assholes and mouths both being interchangeable…
Let’s not kid ourselves.
America made the conscientious decision to “double down” after the bank bailouts in 2008 by increasing it’s dwindling global control of energy resources requiring the immediate fix of hopeless “fracking” CONUS, and extending it’s military footprint with the invasion(s) and decimation of Libya, Syria and East Ukraine with $150 Trillion in debt to pay for these nefarious project(s) with all the liability borrowed against it’s children’s… children(s)… children(s)… futures!
I really enjoyed this video.
Why bluff in an escalating exercise in brinkmanship? Most likely we may see rising incidents of terrorist operations against all those in the Resistance Bloc including the minor nations in the Bloc’s orbit in order to try and drive a wedge into such relationships. When they do happen Kirby will say,”I told you so.” The reply to this should be something along the lines of not fearing the terrorist and a willingness to take them on despite their actions, not like some other nations that only mouth the words of getting serious about stamping out terrorism, but in reality only stamping out their citizen’s rights and freedoms as a nuisance in the way of governments actions to represent the western Apex Elite oligarchs in their world hegemonic quest.
“… another reason for which the West wanted Russia to get involved in the Syrian mess, is to ‘absorb’ the Jihadist fanatism in its soil. If the suicide bombings start to ‘shift’ from Western targets to Russian territories, Putin will have to face another big problem, apart from any other potential ‘color revolutions’, a dead end in Syria, or, renewed Western sanctions and further economic trouble.”

This execrable Kirby and his ilk believe they are preparing Americans for war. But. Is it possible to prepare Americans for what the next war will mean for them?
Given Kirby is a complete idiot who bluffs on record without a clue what he is talking about, it seems wrong to treat anything he might have said seriously.
When you know that “Abu Ghraib” was “Mission Accomplished” 12 years ago losing hearts and minds around the globe. And your so-called diplomats are allowed to utter the most bellicose vitriol (without losing their jobs) because the lot of them have completely and utterly “lost their minds”…
Speaking as an American with more than 50 years on this planet, I can honestly say that since 9/11 the actions of my Country and it’s government have made being the “worst loser” an art form with no equal!
Kerry has said there is no point negotiating with Russia and the US will proceed by other means.
What are the implcations?
We have the fortuitous release of the MH17 ‘Investigation’ report. Without surprise, Russia is deemed culpable. The only surprise is the extent to which the JIT has had to go to fit the ‘evidence’ to the desired outcome. Apparently, now over 100 people were involved in the exercise of moving a Buk from Russia on a misguided tour through east Ukraine. They have also used a US conceptual design of the warhead rather than the actual design in order to get the shrapnel spread to fit their desired pattern. They have actually declared this Buk had a unique warhead with the fuse at the opposite end to the actual design in order to narrow down the shrapnel spread with the missile fired head on.
Anyway, a hypotheseis: The US will use this bs to try to get the Russians excluded from the UN Security Council. This would i) remove the obstacle to the US to forcing through a no fly zone ii) have Russia declared a rogue nation and and iii) protect the US from Russian response.
The problem with hypothesis lies with China. It would veto any such attempt, if for no other reason than they will be next if they don’t. Will the US try to buy them off with some deal over the South China Sea? That would serve the US by splitting China and Russia. Once Russia is down, then China could be taken down later [in the mind of the Anglo-Zionist nutjobs, that is].
We are in line for an overdose of Power in the next few weeks.
Unpayable, this is the real diagnostic and prognosis about the US.
Wrong.
Ass covering but not at all for internal job keeping purposes. This is the fallout of the extreme displeasure of the financial backers behind this tragedy and protracted conflict, when they realized that US Administration and Army are acting like paper tigers, instead of the real ones they thought they were feeding with bribes and money.
Say you hired the best there is in mercenary circles and you end up nowhere after 5 years. So you get mad and ask your contractors to show teeth, at least to save face among your peers. These M-E walking ATMs suddenly got it: They have been robbed, Nigerian way. Some (the small state actors) are now doubting that preparation H (like Hillary) will soothe their pain. The perspective that their purchased war might end up in the hands of The Donald is indeed potential yuuuge pain, even if Little Marco was right.
Add JASTA and the Oil price seemingly glued to the floor and you get the picture. Russia did change the rules of Mecca sickos poker.
Excellent edgy, scatological comment!
For foreigners or youngsters who never saw the advertisements on tv decades ago, the H in Preparation H stands for hemorrhoids, the abysmal fate of the butt-hurt individual. Or nation.
I like it as the counter-Hillary 2016 slogan. “Preparation Hillary will not work to shrink the painfully swollen veins of the MIC!. This H (harridan from Hell) will just make those veins bleed even more”
Like dealers say, in dealing the last card of seven card stud, “Here it comes, down and dirty!
And certainly bloody, as well, in case the last, down card is the Queen of Spades, Hitlery Clinton.
Actually, I hope the commentator is correct but it appears that the real commander in chief of the US, Ashton-Carter in league with Gen Votel of Centcom Mid East/EurAsia, has an agenda which he will carry out. This Sheik has another world view:
http://www.fort-russ.com/2016/10/is-russia-fulfilling-1000-year-old.html
As for the meme that there is a division in the ruling class of the USA over the conduct of their intervention in Syria, where is the proof? And who are the spokesmen for such divisions and where is the discussion of such divisions? Either this is because to quote the line in the movie Snowden, ” secrecy is security, and security is victory” or there is no fundamental division at all.
Well, there clearly is a division in the US ruling class. Much as the Obama regime has been a disgusting parade of Sheikh huggers and Nazi appeasers, Obama was never too keen to start WW3 with Russia or to really bet his whole kitty on Al Qaeda in Syria. It is clear to those who have eyes to see that the US military, CENTCOM and NATO had other plans when the feckless John Kerry signed off on the Syrian ceasefire and the US Air Force with NATO cooperation strafed and killed 60-80 Syrian troops on Sept. 17th. This is why Vitaly Churkin had to rather undiplomatically ask just who is in charge of American policy?
The only division among the US’ shadow ruling class is the absolute inbred morons who wish to pick a fight with a nuclear-armed state, with no idea about the consequnces – and those who wish to pick a fight with a nuclear-armed state, with some idea about the consequences and so treading more carefully.
The real ‘US ruling caste’ can be found in Tel Aviv. They want Syria destroyed, one way or another, so that they can ‘redeem’ ie steal, those bits promised to ‘Eretz Yisrael’ by their psychotic God. Indeed Deputy Knesset Speaker Smotrich openly declared on Israeli TV a few months ago, that Damascus belongs to the Jews. It’s the Oded Yinon Plan in action.
Bluffing. The ruling class does not want nuclear war. But they want to intimidate and isolate Russia, and force her to spend incessantly on defense. Then the time will be right for a color revolution at the Kremlin, cheered on by the Russian Oligarchs who want to be junior members of global corporatism, and who don’t care at all what happens to the Russian masses or the state itself.
History in reverse? The USSR breaks up into warring princedoms? Just like The Ukraine and pre-Mongol Rus’?
That would suit the Anglo-Zionist Imperial quest for hegemony very well.
US Sec of State John Kerry – Leaked audio on Syria, or possibly “leaked”:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t3grHmI44mg
Kirby is taking a page out of Porkoshenko’s playbook when the Candy King said, referring to the Novos, They will cower in their basements.
One interesting point by this commentator…
Namely the rumored kalibr cruise missile strike on a secret coordination center in Syria that supposedly killed a number of US, Israeli, Saudi, Turk and other high-level operatives engaged in training and supplying terrorists…
Lots of people are wondering whether this event actually happened or not…it was only sparsely reported (Sputnik Arabic and Fars) then quickly disappeared from the news…never mentioned in Western media…
Now this commentator makes a good point that the US is obviously in a fit-to-be-tied rage…as evidenced by the Kirby outburst, but also sharp Kerry rhetoric…but why so angry…?
Obvious answer is their Nusra clients are getting creamed in Aleppo…in good part due to Russian air strikes…
But the level of these angry outbursts seems to point to something more than just Aleppo impotence…a more basic reaction…which lends credence to the theory that they are angry as hell because the Russians hit them where it hurts…right at their own spooks…
Naturally if this strike did in fact occur, the US and co. would never admit to it…since that would expose the depth of their deception about their entire Syria narrative…
Russians would likewise want to keep it quiet because that’s how the game works in dirty pool…
The missiles were indeed fired from The Flot and there was no official report of their target. On the other hand there is enough background noise to pretty much verify that the missiles did indeed hit a very high value target deep in a narrow valley in the rugged territory near Aleppo. One would think the ensuing shrieks from the likes of what’s his face et al could give some semblance of verification that the target was indeed a command and control node that was officially ‘not there’. And is now officially not there.
This little launch sent several messages as did the Kalibr launches from the Caspian Sea some months ago. One, Mother can and will touch you wherever you are. Two, Russia knows exactly who you are and where you are. Three, Kalibr has literally pinpoint accuracy, range don’t matter. Four, think of war with Mother. Think US east coast and west coast and 1500 kilometers in from coast and understand that if this comes to real you and Russia war that the continental US will no longer be protected by the oceans east and west of same. Think target rich environment with military targets all over H and creation. And, my dear Canadians, don’t think you won’t be visited. Mother has not forgotten your actions of late.

This magnificent and information-rich rant should be in a movie. Too bad movies good enough to contain it are no longer made. I am thinking Dr Strangelove caliber.
Well, Franz, eventually someone of import in the movie industry may take the time to read my novel and the short story and understand them. If so it’s possible an information rich movie may be made. Any good fiction has numerous nuggets of truth.

Good point, Auslander…
No doubt the Kalibr family is a potent weapon system…
We can judge this by the stunned reactions from the West after the Syria demonstrations…
Launch platforms are equally impressive…especially the subs…super-quiet Kilo-class diesel-electric…and nuclear Yasen and Borei-class…
Air-launched Kalibr is probably ready to go too and may be demonstrated soon…Tu-142 sub-hunter mentioned as possible launch platform…would also think the Tu-22M and others…
Not mentioned as much as Kalibr is another formidable weapon, the MKB Raduga Kh-101 air-launched cruise missile…here is a shot of a Tu-160 dropping one against Syria targets…note the Su30 escort…
http://svpressa.ru/war21/article/137083/
Tu-160 carries 12 ‘101s on two rotary launchers (think revolver that drops down from bomb bay)…this is a stealthy (0.01 square meter RCS), subsonic cruise missile with a range up to 5,500 km…and accuracy of 5 m…can be conventional HE or nuclear-tipped…
Yes range does matter in a standoff weapon…US AGM-86 has a published range of less than half…2,400 km…same subsonic speed (M0.8) and launched from subsonic B-52…
Rumored max range of Kh-101 is said to be 10,000 km…
Should mention here ‘101’s air launch platform…White Swan (Tu-160)…world’s biggest ever combat aircraft has no match in the world…flying at twice the speed of sound and carrying 40 tons of ordnance…50 percent bigger than Concorde at 275 tons max takeoff weight…
Also the Tu-95…still a capable heavy bomber…I’ll take the Bear over Stratofortress any day of the week…both still going strong after six decades…
Problem with low-flying subsonic cruise missiles is that they can be defended by fighter jets with look-down, shoot-down radar…that’s why supersonic terminal flight stage of Kalibr is a big deal…not easy to defend…also why Kh-101 is stealthy…
Dear Auslander:
I live just south of Fort Lewis and the Bangor Nuclear sub base in Washington. Do you think I should move? Further east, further south or what? I wonder. I really like my five acres with a good water well and polite distance from the capitol city of Olympia. what should I do?
Don’t worry, Jim, I doubt you’ll be seeing Kalibr’s floating past your porch. As an aside my lass has again categorically refused to go to the mainland and spend some time with the children in their very safe haven.

“quickly disappeared from the news…never mentioned in Western media…”
Russian successes and Western failures are not reported in the MSM. Just ask the New York Times and the Washington Post. This is the American Propaganda M.O. since the West lost Crimea and Russia reasserted its dominion in Sevastopol.
And today the MSM is weeping alligator tears over the bombing deaths of Aleppoians — especially the children. As if no one died in Pee Wee Bush’s invasion of Iraq 13 years ago. As if the countries whose boots the American and English MSM lick, were not ten thousand times worse with the atomic bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan and the fire bombing of Dresden, Germany.
Tired of fighting, the Allies didn’t care how many women and children they killed as long as they got home before the pot roast was done.
If you want a job with the MSM, you can’t to any better than buying yourself a copy of “Hypocrisy for Dummies.”
OK. So an unknown retired officer of the US Navy whose current vocation is reading from a teleprompter read some threatening passages and passed them on verbatim. Big deal.
Kirby was what is know as a remf, never having ‘been there done that’, in other words a warrior he ain’t. Now, when a non warrior reading a teleprompter or prepared script and who was nothing but a rear echelon sufferer of the Oedipus Complex threatens one of the strongest countries in this world with violence and terror few, if any, will take this lovely minion seriously. If he is serious about his threats I’m sure his desires can be facilitated and he will be taken where, to coin a phrase, ‘the Blue Max grows’. I’ll even pay for his ticket and give him a crash course in how to use one of Comrade Kalashnikov’s finest odes to world peace before patting him on the bumm and sending him onward to match his deeds with his mouth.
Gimme a break, this clown makes Psaki look almost sane and that truly boggles the mind. An officer he may have been but a gentleman he will never be.
I think you’re entirely right, Auslander, and this video and your comments do much to assuage the utter revulsion and confused anger that people with a clue over here are feeling today. Isn’t Kirby the guy who wore his alma mater’s football jersey to a press conference the day of a big game, in order to “impress” the foreign reporters? It’s beyond embarrassing, it’s barely f-ing literate and a display of just how incompetent a government filled with brown-nosing ladder-climbers can degenerate. Caracalla’s Roman PR hacks were pros in comparison.
Back in the 70’s I had family in Academia who were funded by USAID and State. In those days, most of these people were intelligent useful idiots, as it were, who really believed they were doing projects to save the third world and promote democracy and human rights. They were in retrospect totally brainwashed most of the time, but for crying out loud, they at least had to behave themselves, put on a good show, and act diplomatic at conferences. The incompetence of Psaki, Kirby, et al is mind-blowing, but it may be our saving grace — our deep state, state and minions are not as clever and brilliant as they imagine themselves to be, by a very long shot. You just can’t fake such a pitiful performance, nor do competent agencies hire such boneheads to represent them in public. Thanks again for invaluable perspectives from Krim.

That is one deTAIL I’m sure from the looks of him he is aware of. Often.
I am assuming at this point that the Russian staff are fully appraised of the contents of HC’s private unsecured email server and are waiting for events to unfold. The US never refuted or retracted a word of the Manning and Snowden revalations. With a security leak of these proportions there is no element of geopolitical surprise. Has anyone considered the theory that HC is in fact a deep penetration Kremlin mole? …….jus’ musin’
Useful article with several different views:
US-Russian Conflict Over Syria More Dangerous Than the Old Cold War, Here’s Why
https://sputniknews.com/politics/20161002/1045927888/russia-us-syria-conflict-dangers-analysis.html
“Meanwhile, Russian experts are concerned that harsh rhetoric might quickly turn into direct clashes, with Moscow and the US engaging in an all-out ‘war by proxy’ in Syria. Analysts have pointed out that Russia has not been able to achieve even limited cooperation with the Obama administration on Syria, and things might get even worse under his successor.
“Therefore,” the analyst suggested, “the scenarios for proxy conflicts with the US can take severe and dramatic turns – that much was confirmed by Kirby’s remarks. Washington did not allow itself to make such frank statements even during the Cold War. Factually, behind Kirby’s words is a direct threat.”
Ermakov stressed that “it’s clear that Russia’s response to this threat will consist of holding to our position in Syria, whatever the US may be willing to stoop to.”
“In fact, this was the same thing the US did in Afghanistan; really the subtext of Kirby’s statement was exactly that – a threat to move the Afghan scenario to Syrian soil. In Afghanistan, we can recall, the Mujahedeen also transitioned from using ancient Enfield rifles to modern weapons, after the US revised its strategy.”
Ultimately, whatever happens next, Ermakov emphasized that “if Russia were to show weakness in response to the US threat, the situation would shift fundamentally [against it] in all respects, including in negotiations and the working group on restoring Syria; therefore, there will not be any significant concessions on our part.”
I do not exclude that the new president, whoever it may be, will be put in a situation where he or she will not be able to drastically turn the tables.”
“One has to understand that the US president is just the tip of the iceberg. Behind him is a team of actors and groups that support him. Perhaps the worsening situation in Syria today was created so that the new leader will not leave the desired ‘policy line’.”
The last quote about forcing the hand of the new american regime probably is a major factor behind israel having their pindo pets go on the offensive, and not just against Syria. This gives a clinton regime a headstart, since I assume this regime would only incorporate minor changes from the out going obama regime. Also, responses from the victims of these israeli-american aggressions can be used to whip up war fever, which translates into psywar to help war monger clinton’s campaign. The rally round the flag bs.
The hand forcing, I think, is manly aimed at a possible trump regime, who doesn’t appear to be enthusiastic about war against Syria or Russia. The more involved the u.s. is, the more difficult it will be to reverse it.
Another piece of Certified Human Garbage. Itching for the Nobel Peace Prize, perchance?
Looks like an alcoholic, by the way. Neatly explains what’s ‘moderate’ about the Pindos’ preferred head-choppers; they don’t seem to bother too much about un-Islamic behaviour.
Practically an illustration of the maxim: “Revenge is a dish best taken cold.”
Bravo! And no need to pass the salt or pepper.
Is this clown the best the US can find to act as their spokeperson?
He certainly makes some good points, but I’m afraid his overall optimism is a big mistake–I think this seems to be fairly widespread in Russia. He wants “heavy hitters” to make threats, well then listen to Ash Carter and Hillary. There is no question that the Anglo-Zionist empire is hegemonic and will not give up this ambition. There is no question it will keep pushing the Russians and Chinese until they submit or until the hegemon believes that it really won’t submit. Once that point is reached all hell will finally break loose. They will keep probing and escalating everywhere until that point is reached.

Putin to be convicted of crime against humanity by West in a western court. Julie Bishop Foreign Minister Australiar expects confirmation of the 100 persons involved in the targeting and shooting down of Mh17 by this year end or certainly by end of January. Stitching up Russian leadership for this tragedy is a pathetic smear.
http://www.fort-russ.com/2016/10/flores-ukraine-undeniably-responsible.html
The whole of the Australian government is pathetic. Its depressing listening to them. Bishop happens to be a bit more pathetic and hopeless.
To give you an idea of what Julie Bishop is, you ought to know of her past as a lawyer. Years ago she represented asbestos peddlers in cases for compensation brought by victims of asbestos-related lung cancer, asbestosis and mesothelioma. Bishop was central in the tactic hit upon, where these court cases were constantly delayed by legal manoeuvring, knowing that these dreadful diseases killed quickly, the victims often lasting only months, in very great pain. When they died, the court cases lapsed, and, no doubt, Bishop got a bonus. Just another Imperial toady and psychopath, a female of the species, like Powers, Clinton, Albright and the Rices et al.
During Lam Son 719, the U.S. planners had believed that any North Vietnamese forces that opposed the incursion would be caught in the open and decimated by the application of American aerial might, either in the form of tactical airstrikes or airmobility, which would provide ARVN troops with superior battlefield maneuvering capability. Firepower, as it turned out, was decisive, but “it went in favor of the enemy…Airpower played an important, but not decisive role, in that it prevented a defeat from becoming a disaster that might have been so complete as to encourage the North Vietnamese army to keep moving right into Quang Tri Province.”[86]
The number of helicopters destroyed or damaged during the operation shocked the proponents of U.S. Army aviation and prompted a reevaluation of basic airmobile doctrine. The 101st Airborne Division alone, for example, had 84 of its aircraft destroyed and another 430 damaged. Combined U.S./ARVN helicopter losses totaled 168 destroyed and 618 damaged.[87] Wiki

There is a bigger game afoot that I guesstimate maybe only one person out of a hundred thousand are even slightly aware of and out of that small number even less than 10% fully understand. Count me among the number of those being only slightly aware. So please bear with me because I’m firmly convinced that a knowledge and a understanding of the new architecture and technology that this ‘bigger game’ employs are fundamental to having a more accurate world view. It’s because I never see the results of this ‘bigger game’ considered in any of the hundreds of pages I read concerning current events that I offer up my humble opinion.
A look back over the last 5 or 6 hundred years will prove that the history of the worlds reserve currencies runs parallel the worlds empires. Portugal, Spain, Netherlands, France, Britain, US, and now that baton of reserve status is being passed to the WORLD. Do you understand?? Of course you don’t, I barely do myself and I have been deeply involved in researching this financial technology for the last couple of years. One would imagine after the all time I put into this I would have a better knowledge of my topic. The hard truth is, I’m really not exceptionally bright, and the folks designing this new system (built on the back of the old system) are very bright and love to use arcane financial language, what a headache. Nevertheless we can learn enough of it to get the gist of it, and we must if we are to gain a more accurate picture of this new financial system’s effect on current world events.
At this point I feel I must give it up to my mentor, JC Collins and his blog “Philosophy of Metrics.” Please allow me to quote from his most recent post as a example of his important contribution to a deeper understanding of world events.
“The historic moment which we have long discussed has arrived. As of Oct. 1, 2016, the Chinese renminbi is a part of the weighting composition of the Special Drawing Rights (SDR) of the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The RMB joins the USD, British pound, eruo, and Japanese yen in the SDR basket, and will see it’s international status develop even further as the once unipolar USD dominated international monetary system begins it’s transformation into a multilateral framework.”
That is the first paragraph, the following is the last.
“The vast majority know nothing of this transformation of the international monetary system from what has existed since the end of WW2. October 1, 2016 will come and go with little fanfare. Some may begin to sense that something has changed,but exactly what that change is will not be well defined. Hidden in the march of online commentary, and ignored by the mainstream media, can be found the monetary truth. a truth that can no longer be denied. -JC”
That ‘monetary truth’ JC speaks of is the “bigger game ” I speak of, and firther contend is the major driver of current world events. To learn more I recommend you at least peruse JC’s blog site,”Philosophy of Metrics” and include the information available in your world view, if you do not, you could find yourself looking “cockeyed.” You understand??

New insane neocons plans for Syria:
A Plan for Winding Down the Syrian Civil War: Surge, Freeze, and Enforce
Charles Lister
http://warontherocks.com/2016/09/a-plan-for-winding-down-the-syrian-civil-war/
US is the “masters of propaganda”, and they have been the leading propagandists of the world with its Hollywood style lies. But nowadays, lesser and lesser People take anything American serious, as the world is clearly splitting in to those who follow the truth and the evil ones. But unfortunately, far, far to many swallow anything coming from the land of lies to easy.
There is no division in the US ruling class. When Gen MacArthur refused to accept the policies of Truman, the commander in chief at the time, he was FiReD! OK. Ashton-Carter and Votel ignore the plan of the current President and Sectary of State and, indeed, go one step further and actively sabotage it. And Nothing, I repeat, Nothing happens to them.
So I just cannot accept the very simplistic meme that “there obviously is a split in the ruling class”. It looks as if either they all are on board with letting Ashton-Carter become defacto Commander-in-Chief or else what is going on is hardly described by–“there obviously is a split in the ruling class”. It appears more like what is happening is an unopposed soft coup.
Another meme is : “Soros funds Black Lives Matter ergo the whole rather shapeless movement operating under that umbrella is ruled by NGO type thugs.” Does this really describe reality on the ground? It did not describe what was happening in Ferguson which gave rise to the rather amorphous slogan over a year ago. There are many other organizations in the Afro American community and their members may or may not use that slogan among other slogans which reflect the interests of the community. Black Lives Matter when All Lives Matter.
Beware facile slogans and easy conclusions. Something is very rotten in Denmark (USA).
My thinking on that is, the different departments of government have stopped obeying Obama in anything they think contradicts what the new President wants done. Since Obama was foolish enough to let himself be co-opted early on by the neo-cons. And allow them to grow even more powerful.Now he is feeling the “blowback” from that.They believe (rightly or wrongly) Clinton will succeed Obama very soon. They know she is a confirmed neo-con like they are. So they are taking actions,if not direct orders ,from her and her minions. As in the past,when the old King lays dying,the court officials,move to embrace the ” New King”. The only thing able to stop them is if a “pretender” raises up as a usurper to take the throne. And the PTB are counting on “the Donald” not being that “one”.
Three words that most pro-American apologists refuse to utter: AMERICAN STATE TERRORISM.
I mostly agree with the content of the video and with most of the comments here, but it seems that PolitRussia.com is now engaging in the same slick brainwashing technique that has become common in the West, especially in religious broadcasts and videos; that of using certain kinds of background music to help evoke a desired emotional response. One religion even tried to copyright the technique under the name “Heartsell” (the LDS Church’s media arm Bonneville Corporation). Having become aware of the technique, I oftentimes find it distracting, even when I agree with the message as I do here.
KIrby’s implied threat echos the implicit threat Bandar made to Putin in 2013 of sending terrorists to the Sochi Winter Olympics if Putin did not accept a deal to stop supporting Assad. I didn’t think Bandar was arrogant, but rather he was utterly fxxkxxg stupid. Threatening Putin with terrorist attacks??? You gotta be kidding….

The “evildoers” are being exposed daily it seems. But we can be sure little if any of those reports will reach the Western public (certainly not the US public). Now the UN is officially blaming the humanitarian disaster in Syria on the US and EU sanctions:

To add to my post another exposure of US trickery. We all “knew” some of the “terrorist” videos were suspicious. Now there is proof:

Very nice video! Well rounded, laid back delivery: straight forward and intelligent reasoning, with attention and some repetition of details and facts, completely understated, dismissive humour and creating the perfect USA counter balance. Nice example of the way the Russian mind thinks and expresses itself; different from the western way
Forget what this yo-yo says. He is a paid liar.
In Deir ez-Zor, Syria, The Syrian Army was attacked in its positions with weapons which the ISIS does not possess. And it becomes clear which participant in this Syrian war owns the aircraft which were used to kill Syrian Army officer and men, as well as Russian personel. A combination of A-10 Warthog tactical air support planes and Drones was used to first make bombing runs, followed by murderous mopping up operations by the Drones which the US military used to shoot Syrian troops in the chaos aftermath, and this included both downed and wounded as well as those who could still move. These attacks were coordinated with the counter-offensive staged by ISIS terrorists who moved in to re-take the positions after the US air strikes were completed.
The State Department, or the Pentagon may be able to get away with denying the attack was intentional, and claiming they made a huge mistake, but what will they do about hundreds of Syrian witnesses who watched the carnage they committed? These witnesses do not report an incident that can be characterized as a “mistake.” Is the US now going to just dismiss these reports, or, will they move to eliminate the witnesses who could testify and convict the US as a perpetrator of war crimes? The witnesses consistently report a concerted and painstakingly executed offensive committed by another country, the USA, which has not even bothered to formally declare war against them. No war declaration because if the United States tried it, they would be ruled as unjustified by the United Nations which so far has rejected AND repudiated their claims of atrocities allegedly committed by the Assad regime. In each case, UN investigators and officials have not been able to confirm the made-up charges following their false flag attacks carried out against the civilian population.
By now, it should be plain and incontrovertible to all observers that the United States, and allies are present in Syria illegally and in numbers. It cannot be denied at all that supporting a “popular uprising” against an autocratic dictatorship has been a ruse, and fabrication from the start. In other words, there is no civil war going on in Syria, this is naked international aggression against a sovereign nation, it is piracy of the first order, and it is crimes against humanity. The prime minister of Syria has said that the United States should be ashamed of itself after this aggression, while feigning a “war against terror” but that says nothing of the cold blooded murder that has been committed. The United States has committed the final act which destroys its last shred of credibility as a force for peace in our world, and its government has committed crimes which can only be answered by the American people removing this regime from power: All members of the Executive branch from the President on down, and all members of a complicit Congress which not only enabled this despicable act, but encouraged the President to do so.

The “yo-yo” I referred to is John Kirby, not the presenter. My apologies; I should have made that clear.
This report rides that line where the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency ( C.I.A. ) secretly operated until September 18, 2016 amongst what is called the Dead Cities of Syria dating back to the 1st century ( likely even earlier ); once long forgotten places – no more.
My report intentions are simply trying to heighten awareness levels on a variety of educationally stimulating subjects surrounding some points of human interest not easily discovered by population masses glued to only their cable television sets, laptop computers, or smartphones; providing broadcasts albeit from multinational corporate mainstream media or seemingly independent alternative forms of entertainment.
‘Dead Cities’ are difficult to reach without a guide so, your adventure now begins.
September 10, 2016:
Russia TU 214 military Communication Intelligence Surveillance and Reconnaissance aircraft was deployed near the Sam’an Mountain ( also known as “Mount Simeon” etc. ) region outside NorthWest Aleppo, Syria whereupon it detected a subterranean signals intelligence ( SIGINT ) remote communications operation command post bunker of the Central Intelligence Agency ( C.I.A. ) occupied with nearly ‘250’ multinational intelligence officers, from:
America;
Israel;
France;
United Kingdom;
Saudi Arabia;
Qatar;
Turkey; and,
Other Nations.
On September 17, 2016 the United States led France and Australia military fighter-bombers to strike eleven ( 11 ) United Nations ( UN ) food relief supply trucks earmarked for arrival at a food distribution warehouse for the people of Aleppo, whereafter several Syria Army encampments holding Russia military soldiers were also bombed and killed.That strike, from at-least four ( 4 ) bunker-busting cruisemissle type surface-to-surface missiles known as their KALIBR ( Caliber ) missiles, were fired from an offshore Syria position where a Russia military warship discovered that C.I.A. bunker had been directing Al-Nusra Army ( ANA ) Saudi Arabia commanders leading terrorist strikes against Syria, Russia and China allied military positionings in Syria:
I am currently engaged in capturing a copy of the ‘C.I.A. intelligence command post audio communication transmission’ surrounding the C.I.A. intelligence bunker in Syria strikes, which Russia aerial intelligence surveillance confirmed proving the C.I.A. called-in the Turkey military air strike bombing on UN food supplies delivered by 11 supply trucks to the civilian distribution warehouse of humanitarian relief for more than 265,000 people without food, water, medicine, hospitals, electricity and other basic human necessities.
The following day on September 18, 2016 a Russia warship launched KALIBR cruisemissiles striking a secret CIA intelligence communications command and control center bunker located northwest of Aleppo, Syria within the mountains of St. Simeon where Syria’s ancient historical sites are located and used to cover-up the 250 multinational Western intelligence staff insIde the CIA bunker that was completely destroyed killing all US, UK, Saudi, Qatari, and others within.
Well that’s a fine kettle of fish!
