The Russian Centre for Reconciliation jointly with the Syrian authorities is completing the large-scale humanitarian operation in the suburbs of Damascus – the Eastern Ghouta. In total, 170,152 people have been evacuated during the operation, including 63,117 militants with their families.
All the settlements in the Eastern Ghouta are currently under the control of the Syrian government.
The Russian military police has been deployed in the Eastern Ghouta in order to monitor situation and maintain law enforcement.
As environment in the suburbs of Damscus stabilizing, people are making their way back home. In total, some 63,000 people have return to their homes now. It makes a half of those who had left the area.
The Syrian government working on rehabilitation of destroyed civilian infrastructure. Power and water supply systems have been recovered; reconstruction is underway in the area. People are provided with medical assistance.
Thus, the present-day Eastern Ghouta is far from a “black hole” where no one could get to, but a capital suburb returning to peaceful life.
Situation is under control of the lawful authorities that is taking measures to recover trade, adjust prices, render services for civilians, and rehabilitate schools.
All conditions are being established to ensure swiftly normalize environment in the area.
Meanwhile, residents of the Eastern Ghouta that had suffered violation from terrorists for many years badly need humanitarian assistance.
Russia was the first to render this assistance.
The Russian Centre for Reconciliation has delivered 520 tons of food supplies, more than 50,000 liters of bottled water, 9,000 sets of bed linen, and provided with engineering equipment to remove rubbles.
Today, a convoy carrying construction equipment, trucks, steel tubes for water supply system, and required equipment for overhauling power systems have been sent to the city of Douma.
Another five such convoys are to depart to Douma next week.
It is to be stressed that all the construction equipment and materials delivered by the convoys to the Eastern Ghouta shall be handed over to the UN representatives in Syria for further distribution among civilians. It is Russia’s contribution to the UN humanitarian assistance for people in Syria.
One should pay attention that it is the real help that Russia is providing to real civilians in Syria, rather than hollow promises made by some western countries.
Russia urges world community to join Russia and provide Syrians with necessary humanitarian aid.
It is common knowledge that not everybody feels comfortable with such progress on the way to restoring peaceful life in Syria.
The Syrian legal government has been receiving from the USA and western countries baseless and flimsy accusations of alleged chemical attack against civilians in the Eastern Ghouta.
After about a week, the USA and some European countries provided no evidence on alleged using of poisonous agents by the Syrian troops on April 7 in the city of Douma.
The Russian Ministry of Defence has overwhelming evidence that in Douma on April 7 there was a planned provocation in order to deceive the world community. Its original purpose was to provoke missile strikes by the USA against Syria.
It is to be reminded that a video clip recorded at the Douma hospital where injured people were allegedly brought to is the key ‘evidence’ of all these accusations made by western countries.
However, we managed to find those who directly had taken part in this footage, and to ask them questions.
Today, Russian shows an interview with these people.
Citizens of Douma told how a staged clip had been recorded, in which episodes they had participated and what roles they had had.
Besides, they showed shots with them in the clip.
Both persons involved in the clip have medical degree and work in emergency department of the Douma Hospital.
According to them, those who had been brought to the hospital had no injuries caused by chemical agents.
When civilians were receiving first aid, some unidentified people rushed in the hospital.
Some of them had video cameras. These people started shouting, spreading panic, and dousing other people with water. They shouted that all people in the hospital were victims of chemical weapons use.
Patients and their relatives started dousing each other with water.
After the action was filmed, the unknown persons escaped immediately.
As it can be seen, these Syrians demonstrate themselves at the footage.
It is to be noted that these people do not hide their names. These are not some impersonal messages on social networks or statements of anonymous activists.
It is to be stressed once again that these are people who became direct participants in filming these footage.
These facts are the evidence in the civilized world, and are not unfounded and irresponsible accusations spread with the aim of hanging labels and denigrating the leadership of other countries.
Earlier, Russia had made numerous warns on all levels about provocations of chemical weapons use organized by insurgents in the Eastern Ghouta.
Today, there are other evidences at the disposal of the Russian military department, which testify to the direct participation of Great Britain in organizing this provocation in the Eastern Ghouta.
The Russian party knows for certain that from April 3 to 6, representatives of the so-called White Helmets were influenced by London for the speedy implementation of the provocation prepared in advance.
The White Helmets received information that Jaysh al-Islam militants were to conduct a series of powerful artillery shelling of Damascus on April 3 to 6.
This will promote a response from the government troops, which the White Helmets’ representatives will have to use to carry out provocations with alleged chemical weapons.
Today, a group of experts from the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons is arriving in Syria.
The Russian Reconciliation Centre is ready to provide security and necessary work conditions in the Eastern Ghouta to them.
The Russian party hopes that the OPCW group will be guided not by some third party’s requirements and anonymous pseudo-evidences from social networks, but will conduct an objective and independent investigation to ascertain the truth.
The Russian Defence Ministry is confident that the responsible position of the OPCW will reduce the degree of tensions in the region and thereby preserve the fragile peace that was established in Syria.
Taking into account that peaceful life is returning to the Eastern Ghouta, the attention is to be drawn to the ongoing humanitarian disaster in Raqqa, which had been liberated five months ago by the United States and the countries of the so-called International Coalition.
On April 10, the World Health Organization (WHO) prepared a report.
The document indicates that civilians returning to the city of Raqqa are daily endangered by the huge amount of scattered ammunition and improvised explosive devices.
According to the WHO experts, from October 1, 2017 to February 28 2018, more than 660 Syrians received wounds and injuries of varying severity. More than 130 people were killed.
Every day, up to six explosions of civilians occur. In this case, most often the victims are children and adolescents.
According to the WHO, there are only two hospitals in Raqqa. They are overcrowded and fail to provide assistance to all injured.
The experts emphasize that residents of Raqqa are deprived of humanitarian aid because of the lack of representative offices of international profile organizations in the region and the inability of local authorities to remedy the situation.
Extremely severe and epidemiological situation is in Raqqa. Until now, thousands of corpses are decomposing under the ruins of the city.
The city is 70 percent wiped off the face of the earth as a result of the bombing by the US AF.
These are assessments made by representatives of international organizations.
In this regard, it is to be reminded that the work of schools, hospitals, and social institutions has been restored in all territories liberated from terrorists by the government troops. There are markets, businesses and housing are being restored.
How is it than when the Russians investigate, they present the finding for all to see, but when the West obtains “proof” it must be classified for security reasons? 😳
Does someone have a link to this video clip mentioned by the ministry? I would very much like to view it.

Why? Because our zionazi “god’s” move in mysterious ways which the lowly untermenchen in the colonies (that’s us) could not possibly comprehend. ;-D
What proof.Friday 13,bombing of Damascus started,no retaliation yet.Will there be any.
Now you will all know who Putin realy is.No more excuses about playing 3D chess.This is real shit.
To all the Trumpturds of which i was one we got dry f….ed.How does it feel .Nothing has changed,all he did is highjack oposition to deep state.That is why Hitlary is still walking around FREE.
Well Ruskies the ball is in your court.
because the west is lying
Of course real information is anathema to he warmongers, but it is like fresh air to those of us interested in the truth.
@ mike
The truth? Neither Russia nor Anglo press briefings are about giving you, Joe public, the truth. As if you need to know! Why do you think one side or the other cares if you know? What difference can you make? They don’t even care much about your disabled friend, colleague, family member. If you want to understand geopolitics, you knowing the truth is not relevant. Rather, leveraging public opinion is a vital tool in conducting private negotiation about things never in the public view.
What we are watching as the west and Russia face off over this clearly fake Scripal, gouta/Douma attack is simply a public negotiation, a public leveraging exercise to strengthen a hand in a secret matter. If you think that either one side or the other is telling the truth, then you are part of the leverage mechanism by which each side negotiates. Each side tries to lever the other and also dismantle each others levers. By exposing the weakness of Britains negotiating hand, Russia strengthens its own.
For example, the truth about Scripal or E. Gouta attack is not the issue. The possibility of war is not the issue. These are the levers that move populations. To understand what is going on, you have to imagine or figure why such extraordinarily strong levers need to be applied to Russia at this point.
My guess is that this is less about war and more about negotiating the terms of loss of face. E. Gouta was run by UK and French militants. It was their province in the geurrilla war the west is fighting in Syria, as Helmand province was under UK command in Afghanistan. The US gave up on this district when Tillerson acknowledged that Russian special forces would be going into E. Gouta to clear it out. This was the first open deployment of Russian troops in Syria. The US knew about it and said they wouldn’t intervene. It was a huge humiliation to the UK/French that would cost our men’s lives.
Embedded with the terrorists were a good number of UK and Fr special forces, and trapped. Scripal was a clear warning to Russia, in advance of the Russian move, that a chemical false flag would be staged in response, and it laid the public leverage groundwork. Russian Chief of Staff warned that such an attack was expected, in other words, they understood that the Scripals were the first phase of a threat specifically aimed at preventing Russia from killing UK/Fr soldiers in Syria. This had to be a covert negotiation because we are not meant to be fighting alongside ISIS, and our populations do not know.
In response the Russians plus allies flicked the bird and went through Ghouta so fast that not only did they capture two chemical factories and stocks before they could be used, but they also captured a number of UK/Fr special forces embedded with the terrorists. I have no doubt that some are dead, being interrogated right now.
The whole chemical scam is not about the west wanting to provoke a world war, but about stopping a humiliation in E Gouta by threatening a very emotive public response to cleaing Gouta. Since this failed to stop the Russia, the continued threat of war and missiles and subs has been used as the lever by which troops and their dead mates are returned to the UK administration.
In the end, at its simplest and humanest, the UK just lost a minor battle and major war, and there are British commanders reporting to May that they are losing men and they need the bodies back because parents want to know where their son is. Because we couldn’t fight, we propagandized and leveraged to slow the effort and minimise the damage. It failed. Not only that, the Russians have clearly laid down a marker that this method does not work.
Once the UK/French assets are out, this negotiation tactic will disappear into the ether. Until next time.
So Libya and Iraq weren’t really bombed as a result of hoaxes. Good to know.
These games are played in order to mobilize interest groups that would rather be worrying about sexual perversions and drug addictions than making war.
There’s some truth in what your saying. Some effort is probably being made to hold on to this Cheesecurd-a-stan idea. There’s probably something being shaped in the south, toward Jordan, as well. The partition is a real effort requiring air support. Hence it needs pseudo independent land spaces. For this reason, Turkish expansion is on the table. It’s not a big deal, anyway. An american-anglo vassal state is northern syria is a huge problem, on the other hand.
I think your comment would have made sense 50 years ago. But the latest crew in charge really does hate Russia. There’s lying, then there’s crazy retard nicky haley lying. There’s hope to ruin the world cup, portray an ever devious Russia. 50 years ago, it was just a program to make commies look bad. Now is pure liberal racism, completely free from logic. Their hatred exceeds their thinking power.
The Russians need to rally world opinion. They must tell the truth in order for that to happen.
63,117 terrorists left safe E. Goutha. Unbilvable!!!! How it is possible to let the mortal enemy to go free. In such way the war against AngloJewish terrorist in Syria will never end. Syria is such a poultry country and it cannot be liberated by anybody even such power as Russia. Any analyses out of answers to basic questions is scheize.
63,117, that is with wives and kids, often several of both. My guess is not more than 16,000 terrorists.
These deals are made for several rather good reasons.
To kill the number of armed and fanatical terrorist would cost the lives of a good number of your own soldiers. Especially in an urban environment which is excellent defense terrain, and rubble which is often even better.
To kill these terrorists would take time and a large committment of troops for this time. I suspect the Syrian army has other very good and pressing missions for these troops during this time.
To kill these terrorists would mean the deaths of many innocent civilians, including human shields taken by the terrorists.
—————–
One of the tricks of any war is how does one defeat an evil enemy without becoming evil themselves? The second we start thinking like the terrorists and start shouting for Death To All Enemies no matter what the cost, then haven’t we become as evil as they are?
Excellent response, A. I would add that not only does allowing terrorists to leave save many, many lives among the people held captive by terrorist occupation, this also prevents the creation of new terrorist cannon fodder, which fighting the terrorists embedded among the civilians would create. And which the freaks running zionazia are trying to create, since israeloamerica constantly needs more terror proxies to feed the zionazi war strategy.
Yes. Peaceful ethnic cleansing. Get them out and defend your new territory
I fail to understand why millions of people must be occupied by investigations, articles, TV programmes and analises of hot air fantasies of chemical nonsense.
What is going on under this cover?
What is going on? — As the Saker says, it’s an empire’s war on Russia!

A video of the Russians interviewing some of the people involved in filming that false flag.

There should be an English translation (why oh why do the Russians not do this as a matter of course?)
When political persons speak making crazy claims and assertions …. just remember they are just “elected folks” who know nothing about most things …..
They are not an authority ie an expert trained in … whatever …..
They are mouthing the views of their subjective advisors who follow a script written by empire.
Unless “educated” persons plural are given air time on that topic – any topic – then regard the elected spoke – persons comments as suspect….
Johnson and May are totally discreditied as are Moran and Merkyl And any other elected person who followed the recent emotive Brit path…..
These elected fools are so so so hollow and their agendas so obvious to the thinkers of this world.
And yet all these mouthy elected westies bring just more chaos and misery ……
Russian warships and submarines are keeping an eye on US and NATO ships in the Eastern Mediterranean, a military diplomatic source said on Friday.
“Warships and submarines of the Russian naval taskforce are keeping track at a close distance of US and NATO assault ships and submarines in the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea,” the source said.
According to the source, the force is tasked to monitor the underwater, surface and air situation in the eastern part of the Mediterranean Sea, including approaches and maneuvering of foreign ships in the off-coast area near Syria’s Tartus.

This is how the US withdraws from Syria. It claims victory (killed lotsa Ruskies) then tucks tail and runs.
But don’t get me wrong, I appreciate Pompeo is not what he appears to be. He and certain of the Trump White House staff, including Mattis, have the good sense not to start WW3.
Pompeo: Killing Hundreds of Russians a Key Achievement in Countering Moscow
“The list of actions that this administration has taken — I’m happy to walk through each of them,” Pompeo said on Thursday when asked about actions taken to counter Moscow. “A handful of weeks ago, the Russians met their match and a couple hundred Russians were killed.”

It’s not true of course but US withdrawal from Syria requires they not appear to have been chased out by Russia.
The Russians and holders of Donald Trump’s twitter account privileges have organized a Cuban Missile Crisis type ‘event’ to counter humiliating coverage in UK-Zionist media of the US withdrawal.
What withdraw?
The Pentagon exercised their veto over the President’s suggestion.
And so the worst of the scare is over.
Syria – Manipulated Videos Fail To Launch World War III
http://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/04/syria-manipulated-videos-fail-to-launch-world-war-iii.html#more
It’s a war of manipulations ladies and gentlemen. Expect many new escalatory measures by the UK led Zionist ‘Octopus’ media, for example blocking access to Southfront on Facebook was just done, now that it’s been demonstrated the UK controlled Zionist media are no longer able to excercise full control over what people think.
One way or another United States and Anglo-American elites are already engaged in a full blown Civil War. As with the last US Civil War the agressors are in the UK, and Tsar Putin has sent his virtual fleet to help the USA.
It is sometimes remarkable how history repeats.
How A Russian Czar Saved America
http://mikethehistoryguy.blogspot.ca/2013/10/how-russia-czar-saved-america.html
There is going to be war war and more war. This does not have a happy ending. Novichok is a weapon aimed at Iran. French or allies troops stationed in Iran and Iraq will likely be false flag attacked by fourth generation nerve agents. The CW will resemble 2016 Iran-OPCW co-developed novichoks. The Skripal affair and this Douma incident combined with Western imperative to take out Iran suggest the French have been lured like crabs into a pot so that as time ripens a day will come when the French will lose truckloads of personnel to a CW false flag which will be traced cleanly (seemingly) to Iran.
God save us all
Trump has launched
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-13/watch-live-president-trump-expected-announce-military-strikes-syria-tonight
Yep, there’s gonna be a war. Patrick Lange at Sic Semper Tyrannus frames it properly, without saying anything too overtly concerning Russia-Trump-Pentagon cooperation.
“Remember the Maine!”
http://turcopolier.typepad.com/sic_semper_tyrannis/2018/04/mutually-assured-suicide.html
Not the first nor by any means most important false flag in history, I am deeply heartened to see many people in the alt-media mindspace coming to their senses and telling evermore truth as the nature of this war (primarily psychological) starts to become more widely understood. As more and more people become familiar with the term false flag it will slowly become more difficult for the UK Zionist Octopus Cabal to continue fooling the planet into submission.
And so it is with the fake war now being created by Russia and ‘partners’ in the Trump Administration.
You need to build your psychological weapons the same way the Russians build their S400’s. Each system has missiles with ranges of (roughly) 50, 150, 250 and 400kms. In the same way in the cyberwar we are fighting (including legions of government paid trolls in comment sections) some websites outght to tell a few truths, for those who might find it difficult to comprehend the longer range and bigger picture facts. Other websites need to have much greater reach, with the biggest weapons being those websites who tell the most trurh possible without getting themselves removed from the cyberspace battlefield altogether.
And there are risks. No question. It may very well happened that the Britis and NATO Gladio Deep State Nazis attempt to attack Khenimim airbase, for example, timing the strike to coincide with an attack on already emptied Syrian military infrastructure made by the US and other ships gatherng in the eastern Meditteranean. We need to be prepared for any possible scenario but what I would be most worried about is a repeat of what was done when Israel attempted to sink the USS Liberty, to bring the United States into war against Egypt.
Concerning the story from ZeroHedge, here is the first update. Pay close attention to what has been targetted.
“A short time ago, I ordered the United States Armed Forces to launch precision strikes on targets associated with the chemical weapons capabilities> of Syrian dictator, Bashar al-Assad.”
“This massacre was a significant escalation in a pattern of chemical weapons use by that very terrible regime.”
“These are not the actions of a man; they are crimes of a monster instead.”
“The combined American, British, and French response to these atrocities will integrate all instruments of our national power, military, economic, and diplomatic.”
“We are prepared to sustain this response until the Syrian regime stops its use of prohibited chemical agents.”
“In 2013, President Putin and his government promised the world that they would guarantee the elimination of Syria’s chemical weapons.”
“Assad’s recent attack and today’s response are the direct result of Russia’s failure to keep that promise. Russia must decide if it will continue down this dark path or if it will join with civilized nations as a force for stability and peace.”
“The United States will be a partner and a friend, but the fate of the region lies in the hands of its own people.”
“Tonight, I ask all Americans to say a prayer for our noble warriors and our allies as they carry out their missions. We pray that God will bring comfort to those suffering in Syria.”
The Syrians must be devastated at the loss of their chemical weapons making facilities. LOL.
Second last line, Trump is telling you “the fate of the region lies in the hands of its own people.”
Indeed it does. Time for the US to go home.
“This massacre was a significant escalation in a pattern of chemical weapons use by that very terrible regime.”
“These are not the actions of a man; they are crimes of a monster instead.”
Romans 2:1-3 applies in full measure here.
Breaking: Trump has approved strikes on Syria
US led misdile strikes have commenced in Syria.
Partisan girl twitter has it realtime! The attack is happening in several cities. Syrian and Russian defenses intercepting the incoming attack.
Now it’s the moment of truth for Putin and Russia. The Western thugs have attacked Syria despite the potential for a major war breaking out. If he backs now he will lose all respect among those who sympathize with the Russian cause and annul all the work of past years.
Now we can only pray.
Don’t wary…the Russians are kipping an eye on the coalition ships and they will give marks about how correct the lunches were. Like always the Russians are practical and wise and beside of that they don’t have any “moral obligation to intervene”. The final deal for the moment was to let the coalition to save face and the Russians will accept this pie in the face without much fuss because , you know, they are soooooo practical….. Cheers
I agree with you, however, even if was a symbolic attack (way, way too early to assess anything) no Russian response whatsoever sends a bad message. But I sense you are right. Calmness and cold nerves will prevail over cowboy arrogance.
Russia needs to test its anti-missile system in a real war scenario. Shooting down this attacking missiles is PURELY DEFENSIVE. Russia, which is a friend of Syria, needs to save at least one friend.
Russia has sat by while one country after another has been destroyed by the U.S./NATO cabal – and that includes Libya, which Russia had the power to veto but did not.
Russia will have no friends – only countries with enemy puppet governments (like Ukraine has now) or totally destroyed former partners, friends, and/or allies (like Libya).
Yakov Kedmi was saying live on Russian TV that US won’t dare to attack fearing Russian retaliation (?)
God bless Russia and Putin.
=======================
Right now, I have nothing but contempt for those who supported this egomaniac Trump! I’m sorry, but I’ve been like a lone voice in a desert of Trump kool-aid addicts clinging to a mirage of peace and harmony in awe of Trumpgod descending on a cloud of deception.
You all know who you are and deserve this wake up call. Finally, finally we can discuss with your eyes wide open. It’s been hell for months trying to open them for you. Trump is and always has been an opportunistic stooge, a Zionist wolf in sheep’s clothing; a master manipulator and a dangerous deception.
We’ll see how much damage he does to save his ass. He sure changed the subject in a hurry at the expense of Syrians, Iranians and yes, maybe even Russians in Syria.
Trump has been in bed with Zionists and Saudis from day one.
“Trump has been in bed with Zionists and Saudis from day one.”
Respectfully, the _belief_ of many (including myself), was not that trump slept with any sort of angel. The logic was that trump while sleeping with the devil he would deny the devil’s bed of clinton. The hope was for as slim as possibility of a strong self-preserving instinct versus a cold proven psychopath to prevail.
We will never know the truth. I am absorbing current reality, but I am absolutely devastated. I am left with insults as insignificant as my existence.
Totally agree. People foolishly listen to politicians’ promises but fail to see the person, his history, his associates. As well as the contradictions in what Trump said. Shouldn’t it be obvious that on the one hand saying the US should stop interfering in other countries, while poor mouthing the all too bloated military budget was the most glaring example. Documenting this met with scorn and put downs from the ‘wise ones’ who think they know better. Both Bush II and Obama said the US should have a less aggressive policy. If they lied, would people believe any other candidate especially with Trump’s past as a con artist, equivalent to PT Barnum?
Well, what’s done is done. No use in continued recriminations, some people were wrong in their judgments, and who among us has not made mistakes? We all agree here. Somehow the Empire must stop, and hopefully Russia and China leading can walk humanity back from the abyss.
I am absolutely not willing to allow a pass on this.
I am emotional right now, but what has transpired is absolutely inadmissible. There is no leeway room remaining. I am through.
(Removed language.I know you are upset.I am too.But we still must obey the rules,MOD)

Theyve HIT!
So it has started and, yes, there are chemical weapons in Syria despite the Syrian government’s stock being totally destroyed under the auspices of the OPCW -sadly now US controlled. This because the areas under extreme and moderate head-choppers rule were not part of the removal and of course, with Western help, they have been making more.
Chlorine isn’t even considered a chemical weapon as it has so many domestic uses -not the least of which is water purification. It is also militarily a very inefficient weapon so nobody except terrorists uses it. The latter uses it because it is a political weapon especially when about to suffer defeat. But even then it s avoided by Hollywood’s Whte Helmet fake video shows and pictures. How anyone can believe that crude fakery is beyond me to understand.
As far as attacks on precursors for chemical weapons, watch out for incoming as everyone’s kitchen, workshop and garage contains them.
I am totally disgusted with the West especially the UK, US and France.
Shame.
Thanks, everyone, for your comments. Let’s get solid confirmation on all of this before we go too much farther. I know the mainstream news will be showing endless looped footage of missile strikes that are unerringly hitting their targets—-we’ve seen this before, and who knows where the footage was actually taken, or when. We also know that the first casualty in any war is the truth. Now, considering how blind-angry I am at the news of these needless (and expensive) missile strikes, I controlled my language astoundingly well, and I also pray that civilian casualties in this mess will be absolutely minimal. Please join with me on this, friends. We are praying for a miracle.
Russia should have given Syria a good missile defense and training in the last few years so it could have defended itself, if Russians won’t shoot down the attacking missiles themselves.
Russia has excellent anti-aircraft but rarely uses them to protect innocent and falsely accused people from the U.S./NATO, which is expanding and surrounding Russia more and more.
After Syria falls, it will attack Iran, if not before. Russia won’t have any friends at all as they will be destroyed or occupied by the U.S. with U.S. puppets.

Russia Responds: “We Are Being Threatened. A Predesigned Scenario Is Being Implemented”

After the a joint force of US, French and UK fighter jets and ship launched an attack which as Mattis said, “used a little over double the number of weapons this year than we used last year”, and amid unconfirmed reports that the Syrian air force managed to shoot down one or more Tomahawk missiles, the question everyone was asking is whether Russia has responded, and if so, how.
The answer, for now at least, is that Russia has not activated a response, although that may soon change. Here is the statement from Russia’s ambassador to the US, Anataloy Antonov, posted on Facebook:
The worst apprehensions have come true. Our warnings have been left unheard.
A pre-designed scenario is being implemented. Again, we are being threatened. We warned that such actions will not be left without consequences.
All responsibility for them rests with Washington, London and Paris.
Insulting the President of Russia is unacceptable and inadmissible.
The U.S. – the possessor of the biggest arsenal of chemical weapons – has no moral right to blame other countries.
“Insulting the President of Russia is unacceptable and inadmissible.”
Who cares about insults – it is time for ACTION not grumbling about name-calling.
Russia and Syria need to shoot down everything they can!
Russia probably made a huge mistake – more countries (in UN) won’t dare to take Russian side anymore fearing they are not capable of protecting ally.
When euromaidan happened, everybody was asking where is Russia? Wait some time and we´ll see what´s the new countermeasures
It’s too late. You are not realizing the seriousness – Russia has retreated!
it’s probably due to fact that only nuclear arsenal is worthy and in numbers.
The conventional armament will never reach the level that NATO (incl USA ) have.
The question remain if so why would General Valery Gerasimov make a statement he never carried out.
” 1) A repeat of last year’s attack on the Syrian Air Force base in Shayrat. That would be by far the best option and that would allow the Neocons a face-saving, even if entirely symbolic, “look how tough we are” option. They might as well strike the same T4 base the Israelis did a few days ago, just with more missiles. And, just to make this look all very “democratic” they might ask the French, Brits or Israelis to participate in that attack.”
The Saker
I think this is the case.More or less. If it will stop here, as Pentagon confirmed. And no warship sunken.
I hope massive Russian ground forces depart for Syria and finish the business as soon as possible.
Yeah… it appears to be fact, so far. Significantly, instead of a military base (still an act of war) the capital was hit, I’ll wait tomorrow for actual targets.
But now I am just thinking… minutes ago I was just misgiving rest to the issue in casual conversation, almost assured, as well as assuring, the risk had been postponed, this kind of unreliability of the opponent is exactly what makes it dangerous.
The Jew-nazi quisling freakshow has begun their attacks.
Explosions Heard in Damascus Region – Reports
“According to reports, explosions have been heard within Syria’s Damascus region as US President Donald Trump announced on Friday that he was ordering to “launch precision strikes on Syria.”
According to Reuters, Syrian State TV reported that air strikes are targeting Damascus and surrounding areas. Syrian military are responding to the air strikes with anti-aircraft weapons. A total of 20 missiles were intercepted by the Syrian Army.
US officials told reporters that the strike involved Tomahawk cruise missiles, the same missiles that the US dropped on Syria in response to the alleged Khan Shaykhun chemical attack on April 7, 2017.
In a press briefing, the US Department of Defense stated that the operation was “specifically associated” with chemical research facilities and chemical storage sites. Three main chemical sites were targeted along with a command center.
Both UK Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron released statements indicating they ordered forces to conduct coordinated and targeted strikes.
Trump addressed the nation late Friday and announced that he would be giving the go-ahead for a missile strike.
“A short time ago, I ordered the US Armed Forces to launch precision strikes on targets associated with the chemical weapons capabilities of Syrian dictator, Bashar al-Assad,” Trump said at a White House conference.
Prior to Trump’s announcement, Vice President Mike Pence had been summoned to his hotel in Lima, Peru.”
VIDEO: Syrian Interceptors Take Off Against Incoming Missile Before Loud Boom
https://sputniknews.com/world/201804141063539742-syrian-interceptor-take-off-boom/
“”God bless you, God bless you,” a man can be heard saying, shortly after the interceptor seemed to collide with a missile, making a large boom sound.
“F*ck those American bastards,” the man from the video says.
The Syrian Army reports shooting down 20 US, UK and French missiles. When asked about the missiles, the Pentagon during a briefing that it could not comment on the reports.”
I think that this entire missile charade, especially Trump’s speech, has been One Big Phallusy of Composition, designed to compensate for inadequacy of truthfulness and any actual courage, or morality or even intelligence.
Really, really dumb show. Deadly Dumb to the Mind…even if the Body Escapes Immediate Harm.
Alex and Owen give up and declare Comedy Central and Jimmy Kimmel the Winner.”Bring on the New World Order. You win!………Mueller is really the president.”
Christopher Greene has more of an upbeat sense of (black) humor. Pissed that WW III ruins his chance to enjoy the black Masseratti he just bought yesterday with Bitcoin.
Yes, it’s cheesy, but at least he didn’t buy a Lamborghini. (“Lambo” for all y’all not into crypto….) Cringe…..
……and his garage rant with the new black Ratti behind him ain’t bad!:

CG admits voting for Trump (me too) but 100% disgusted about everything to do with DT and the world …….except for Bitcoin and how right he has been about Trump many, many months before A J finally loses hope.
I got news for you, Chris: “He who dies with the most toys.” is another Phallusy/Fallacy….especially when it comes to Lambos and Rattis. Raw deal that you only got a few hours of enjoyment for 6 figures worth of a set of wheels, but move on.

US DoD: US, UK, French Strikes Aimed At ‘Chemical Research Infrastructure’
https://sputniknews.com/news/201804141063540268-pentagon-strikes-one-time-shot/
“The was a “one-time strike,” the head of the Pentagon said. The full operation was completed in less than 60 minutes.”
Translated from zionazi-homosexualese:
We can strike you, but if you reply, you will be branded as the aggressors and we get to have our zio-homosexual wet dream of full on Iraq war against Syria.
May the souls of martyrs be granted forgivness and peace by the Lord of The Worlds God Almighty.
May He grant patience, guidance and wisdom to those fighting, Muslims or Christians, these satanic forces of empire.
I hoped these insane euroamericans would opt for a pathetic “symbolic show of force” mostly destined for their hopelessly ignorant masses and their psychotic press. No news yet on the magnitude of the damage. But it seems to be limited.
Now their perception management teams will proclaim that the sherrif is in town and the indians are dead or scared (i just summarized the whole US -and zionist- culture).
But their officialy mad dog just said that everytime there’s a new “chemical attack” their G3 will bomb more of the resistance infrastructure (minus Russia and Iran). It was noted by Al Qaeda’s helmets who are busy creating the next fake.
Russia’s perception management will probably say “see they didn’t wait for our legal, rational, cooperative modus operandi, namely the OPCW work on site” and possibly “this was illegal, brutal, but see they can’t do Iraq 2.0 thanks to our help”.
The problem, the euroamerican predators (mainly the neocon factions in the US) will
a) Perceive Russia and Iran as weak and just playing with Syria as the USSR did with weakers pawns in the cynical games of the Cold War. Thus they might play a cycle of appeasement and low level warfare.
b) Possibly perceive Putin as cornered: if he says “mission accomplished” and leaves soon, Syria goes down, and the whole chaotic region explodes, with later on secondary explosion of chaos in and around the Caucasus. If he stays, they could work to maintain Syria deprived of its northern and eastern regions, with occasional “punishment from the air”, and continuous debilitation and degradation of the remaining infrastructure, knowing that Russia or Iran won’t provoke WW3 for Syria.
As Russia probably won’t increase its official military presence, it could, in theory, finally massively equip and train syrians with more recent generations of ground to air defense (a compromise could be found at relatively low cost). Thus the cost of missile warfare for the US would increase, without Russian direct involvment.
Will Russia perceive any self interest in doing so given western growing extremism? Could it be done inside acceptable parameters for Russia’s internal politics? Are Russia’s productive capacities and logistical networks healthy enough to make such a modernization of Syria’s defenses possible?
For now we possibly avoided nuclear winter, but these predators will not stop with the creative chaos. Until stopped they will start more fires, they cannot stop.
Thanks God Almighty for another day on this beautiful earth
Dear friends ( I do consider many of you here to be my friends in spirit! ), lets us examine some of the facts: Assad is still there and in good health, his presidential palace is intact, no serious damage was done…Essentially, this is a minor set back and nothing really changed on the ground. Personally, I think Russia should not respond and risk the future of humanity because some banksters are dreaming of blood. No need to talk about Trump and those who are around him. They’re nothing. Absolutely nothing. Russia should target those who’re behind them:
“For the first time in its history, Western Civilization is in danger of being destroyed internally by a corrupt, criminal ruling cabal which is centered around the Rockefeller interests, which include elements from the Morgan, Brown, Rothschild, Du Pont, Harriman, Kuhn- Loeb, and other groupings as well. This junta took control of the political, financial, and cultural life of America in the first two decades of the twentieth century.”
Carroll Quigley, Tragedy and Hope
These money changers were planning this war for a very long time. They want us gone by any means necessary; trans-humanism, WWWIII, GMO, etc, etc…The point is that Russia has to strike the cabal, not the people who are slaved by it. No missiles please!
12 Apr 2018 at 15:21 Russia ready for military operation in Syria, warns of catastrophic consequences
On Monday, Donald Trump announced that the United States would strike a missile blow on Syria within 48 hours. Afterwards, he called Russia to get ready as US was going to use “nice, new and smart” missiles for the attack. On April 12, Donald Trump tweeted: “Never said when an attack on Syria would take place. Could be very soon or not so soon at all! In any event, the United States, under my Administration, has done a great job of ridding the region of ISIS*. Where is our “Thank you America?”
Moscow preferred not to respond to Trump’s bellicose tweets that he made on April 11. Putin’s official spokesman Dmitry Peskov stated that Moscow was not a champion of Twitter diplomacy. “We are supporters of serious approaches. We still believe that it is vital not to take the steps that could harm the already fragile situation,” he said. A representative of the Russian Foreign Ministry, Maria Zakharova, later said that smart missiles should fly in the direction of terrorists, rather than the legitimate government of Syria that also struggles against terrorism.
Meanwhile, the Pentagon has several scenarios for a military operation against Damascus, including a variant of joint actions with Great Britain and France. Donald Trump held negotiations with British Prime Minister Theresa May and French President Emmanuel Macron on Tuesday, April 10. The UK was against a “hasty response” and asked for additional evidence of what had happened in Douma. On Wednesday, Pentagon chief James Mattis admitted that the department was still investigating the incident in Syria’s Douma.
On Wednesday, officials with the Russian Defence Ministry did not make any harsh statements. Vladimir Poznikhir, First Deputy Chief of the Main Operations Directorate of the General Staff, said that the USA should rather restore the ruined city of Raqqa and provide comprehensive assistance to the impoverished population. “We know that the US carrier group (Harry S. Truman aircraft carrier and seven accompanying ships – ed.) headed towards the Persian Gulf, with an approximate arrival date in early May,” the Russian general said, adding that the presence of the US Navy in the region was not unusual at all. He also criticised the World Health Organisation and talked about the achievements of the Russian Defence Ministry in stabilising the situation in Syria.
According to the Kommersant, such a position of the Russian side can be explained with secret negotiations that Russia is conducting with the United States on the line of General Staffs.
The head of the Duma Defence Committee, Vladimir Shamanov, told Rossiya 24 television channel that the Russian military maintain contacts with NATO through the mediation of Turkish counterparts. “Russia has decent weapons, and if the US wants to see how they work, they will see an effective rebuff,” Shamanov also said.
The Russian Defence Ministry has already prepared a list of measures that the Russian military are ready to resort to should the conflict escalate further. Earlier, the head of the General Staff of the Russian Armed Forces, Valery Gerasimov, said that Russia would open fire on both missiles and their carriers to stave off a threat to the Russian military in Syria. Gerasimov was obviously alluding to Russia’s determination to destroy US warships and aircraft. This is the strongest statement that Russian officials have made so far.

Insulting the President of Russia is unacceptable and inadmissible. Insulting the President of Russia has been ongoing and sadly predictable. FIFY Levi.
Looks like the missles are flying. Since the chemical weapons claims are a red herring, what did they bomb? A chlorine plant? Sorry people of Syria, you don’t get chlorinated municipal water and antiseptic cleaning products. The takeaway- die from disease, or get rid of Assad.
Anyone with an update on what was hit?

If the Russians don’t respond to this ineffective attack by Britain, France and the US then I fear Israel will. Netanyahu, we can expect, is furious that it was a minor attack upon Syria. Putin warned they would respond should we attack and so that makes for an opportunity for the IDF to create a false flag and hit one of our ships (either the US, France or Britain).
