Dear friends,
I just wanted to let you know that I am aware of the situation. Frankly, I have already said everything I had to say about the so-called ‘West’ in the following articles:
What price will mankind have to pay for the collapse of the Empire?
and I don’t have much to add on substance.
Tonight all I ask you to follow the advice I gave in this article:
EVERYBODY WAIT! DO NOT JUMP TO CONCLUSIONS!
We have no facts. What US politicians (including generals – US generals are all politicians) say does not matter and is not “fact”. The truth is that we won’t know for sure for at least 24 hours what took place. The aggressors will present the attack as a huge success. Don’t believe it! The last time around it took several days to find out what really happened.
This is still my best advice to you: wait for the facts and don’t listen to the Ziocon propaganda machine!
What is clear is that the Neocon-run Trump administration is willing to risk WWIII just to save it’s face, to look “tough” and to maintain the illusion of its relevance. It is also willing to commit the most odious crime under International Law, the crime of aggression, and it does this brazenly, with the supine, cowardly, support of almost all the western political leaders.
Yes, the US is clearly spitting in the face of Russia daring her to “do something about it”, but Russia-haters should not hurry to rejoice. Because by ignoring the UN and entire corpus of International Law, the AngloZionists are also spitting into the face of every single human on the planet and proudly declaring “we are the Hegemon, we are above everything and everybody, above you and above any of your laws or principles. We are even above facts or logic. Bow down and worship me!“.
On a personal note, my disgust tonight is really total. I take some consolation in the fact that mine was one of the voices which tried to prevent this. We failed, but at least we tried. We can live with ourselves. I also want to thank from the bottom of my heart of those of you who have helped me in this struggle. There really isn’t much we can do at this point besides pray for God’s mercy. What will happen will happen. But even if this specific aggression stops today, the fact that the Empire was willing to risk the future of mankind just to save its ugly face tells us all we need to know about it and it’s so-called “values”. Again, the message is clear:
Bow down and worship me!”
It is now for each and every one of us to decide how to respond. Or not. Your choice. You will have to live with yourself and the consequences of your choice. Think of it as a giant mirror. What do you see?

He said that also, the Russian Defense Ministry has evidence of the UK’s direct involvement in organizing this provocation.
Right now, the Russian Defense Ministry has other evidence indicating Britain’s direct participation in organizing this provocation
He added that between April 3 and April 6, London put pressure on representatives of the so-called White Helmets group in order to facilitate the implementation of the provocation.
If I remember right, that bunch of militants had negotiated an evacuation. Then the news was that they had broken the deal and canceled the evacuation. Then the fake-chem attack occurred. Then the same militants accepted the evacuation deal.
Sounded to me like someone said “Oh no, you can’t evacuate. We’ve got big plans.” To which the militants answered, “OK, we can give you one more day. But do it fast, because the Syrian Army is coming.”
Unless major action is taken in the next 24 this is my take. A bit frustrated here.
Massive defeat. I am done with expecting anything from a bunch of guys with Russian sounding names. Let the Caucasians lead Russia into battle. I am reading the Washington think tankers mock Russia and Putin on Twitter. Mcfaul is orgasmic. That is enough to make me puke. Putin failed. All a man has is his honor and dignity. That is what we leave this place with. And what is with the AMB in Lebanon? Be a man of your word.
Get ready for more attacks. For more sanctions. Crimea will be surrounded with warships (several think tankers were suggesting that). Maybe Putin will step down and someone more capable will step in. Maybe Russia needs an Islamic leader from Chechnya or Dagestan.
Imagine this as the leader of Russia. Nobody, I mean nobody, would be mocking and laughing. Let them rage and hate. Better to be feared and respected than mocked and laughed at.

Hi there, do consider the post by Lach445 and Can we have peace? A lot of interesting points there.
What just happened is huge and promising:
1) US, UK and France threatened to attack Syria over fictitious reasons.
2) Russia says will retaliate and shoot down missiles and carriers if attacked.
3) Trump challenges Putin to hit his new and “smart” missiles.
4) Putin basically said nothing and looked at Assad.
5) Assad got the message and prepared his troops.
6) 103 cruise missiles and decoys launched in multiple waves against Syria.
7) Significant numbers jammed and 71 intercepted by Soviet-era AA defenses and Pansir S1/2
8) Syrian AA troops already rearmed and ready. Syrians on the streets cheering SAA and Assad.
9) Russia now considering selling S300 systems to Syria. Syria is now a powerhouse and will grow even stronger with new AA weapons.
Remember, Putin-Russia have not even begun to fight! Back lash for Trump is huge. Check out Alex Jones’ ravings over Trump’s decision to attack. Senators now starting to attack Trump for not consulting Congress to attack Syria.
Thanks. Do we actually know the cost of launching these 103 missiles? Guess that’s expensive.
Russian MOD mentioned some of the 103 are tomahawks and there are other weapons used, especially from the B-1B bomber, GBU bombs. Wiki mentioned the newest Tomahawk Block IV version costs $1.87m each. Those used today probably are older stocks so should be cheaper ~1m each?.
However, the 71 figure is from Sputnik. The translator for the Russian MOD briefing instead mentioned 41, not 71. Will need further confirmation regarding the effectiveness of SAA air-defenses as more information comes clearer. Interestingly, the MOD mentioned that French fighter jets were not observed to have participated in actual attacking. LOL.
The air-launched smart missiles are not cheap either, and this was the more expensive longer-range stuff. It was not the strap a GPS guidence kit onto a dump bomb that is cheaper but of shorter range as it basically just steers a falling bomb. So, the air-launched missiles were probably a $100 G each or more? Just guessing. So far they haven’t said much as to what was used.. And the B-1s were launching air-launched cruise missiles, which are the prices above.
The Merchants of Death will get a sizeable amount of taxpayer dollars to pay for this latest instance of sending very expensive messages. I do wish they’d discover email for sending messages and lower our taxes.
So, if the weapons averaged at half a mil each, then a 100 missiles was $50,000,000.00
If it costs $100,000 a year to hire a teacher, then that’s 500 teachers. Teachers don’t get paid that much, not nearly. But I’m assuming it costs more than their salary to put them in a room with computers and aids to teach and to keep the room heated and have the lights on. The old business rule was that it costs a business about double the salary paid
I don’t know how much they are arguing about in the states where teachers are on strike demanding decent pay, but those are probably packages which would cost a few million dollars and the teachers are being told that this would break budgets. $50 million probably would have met every demand and had some money left over for the governers to steal.
Don’t come to conclusions, we don’t even know fully about the incident. Picture will become clear in the coming days.
That’s what those arrogant fools do best, they’ve been doing it since long enough.
Like i said, too early to come to conclusions. Putin is a wise, experienced and God fearing man. He knows that any wrong decision can cause the destruction of majority of mankind.
Don’t be stupid, Russia is a majority orthodox country. Kadyrov has proposed a term extension for Putin.

France Lost Opportunity to Act Independently by Joining Syria Strikes – Le Pen
https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201804141063547197-france-airstrikes-syria-front-national/
“”The strikes on Syria are involving us in unpredictable and potentially dramatic consequences. France has again lost an opportunity to act as an independent and balanced state,” Le Pen wrote on her Twitter page.”
In other words, the french have been again reduced, through micron and his israeli owners, to another pathetic petain betrayal of their country.
Does France even exist anymore?
Yes, France still exist in the heart of many people. Macron’s regime stole the show at the last election, with the help of the zio newsnetworks. We are a colony now, but France’s history has been a long history of civil wars and revolutions and fights.
France will probably crumble with the zionazi empire, but will come back.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SacU5MfB7CM
For starters, the rails workers, along with teachers, health sector and many other Frech workers are in strike from months ago until at least June against Macron´s harsh labour reform apporved by decree.
This is why Macron needs a war….
Didn’t King Louis try the same thing before he lost his head?
Leaders think they’ll get a patriotic, rally round the monarch effect. But, sometimes they just make the workers even angrier as all of this adds up to more money for the military taken from workers in the form of longer hours for less pay and paying more taxes. That’s what leads to some of that history of civil wars and revolutions.
pretty much all the French people I know (many) – are quite passive and slavish – they do as they are told and they mostly don’t really like their country very much (kind of like Americans) .
Obsessed with quality of a croissant they are about to buy, the way they dress etc – and that’s about it. I have never met a ballsy French person. Some are loud, but that’s about it. Comes with being a part of modern-day MORDOR (passivity is ‘freedom’ etc)
The Russian MoD (live via RT media) has just stated Syria will now get S300 missile defense systems.
(better late than never)
… also the Russian MoD stated at this time, the missile attack has nothing to do with chemical weapons but is about Syria retaining its sovereign status with peace being restored. Now, why cannot RT media and others hear this and just lay off the repeated lies and give all RT viewers a well deserved break. I do not want the idiots in my face, so … RT media etc … STFU and concentrate on news with substance – please !

The Nazi blitz on London didn’t cause Britain to beg for mercy. Anglo-zionist attack on Damascus won’t stop Syria.
Common people need to start looking at numbers and will either be outraged, or rich.
103 Tomahawk Missiles – 192 Million taxpayer Dollars
Manufactured by by Raytheon.
Buy the stock.
Now overly analytical people like me might ask, what did 192 Million dollars actually accomplish? Apparently with a 30% efficiency rate. Nothing really. I bet this capital would be better employed, with a higher efficiency and turnover, in agriculture or infrastructure in one’s home country or god forbid, social security… I would rather pay for something else other than tomahawk missiles.
Someone certainly more knowledgeable than me should keep this tally. That way it would be easy to address “cui bono”. It would be easy to also outrage those already insensitive to the suffering around them. Those that have more worries in the middle class prison they are stuck into. Those who have to take kids to school in early morning, work their asses off to pay off debt, pickup their kids after work, rinse and repeat.
Few have the time, strength or energy to even notice, let alone condemn, what is going on around them. And sadly, we cannot fault them, for they are victims too.
As a prominent leader in my community once said, stay strong, do not despair, the more lies they tell about us, the more truths we will say about them.
The numbness that surrounds us is a result of the invisible chains we have been unwittingly put in.
Pure numbers, like I advocate but sadly do not have the sufficient knowledge to tally, ought to bring our fight farther than a desperate appeal to humanity which is all but lost in most of us.
This short but sweet comment, will, probably go unnoticed by most.
It is however the crux of the problem.
Congratulations sir.
(moderation, feel free to add this bit to my last comment)
Furthermore, for every missile France and UK fire, that is a positive balance for the US exports. Out of British and French taxpayer dollars.
This should say something about the desperate need for allies. Spread the risk. Spread the outrage. Spread the Bill.
Didn’t I hear stories that Trump was hitting MBS up for money for these sort of acts when the torturer visited America?
That might explain Trump’s and May’s haste to do this. They knew if the whole thing fell apart when their publics had time and a chance to say no to their fake-representatives. If that happened, then they couldn’t launch their symbolic attacks and that would mean they couldn’t submit the padded and inflated bills to MBS.
As crazy as it sounds, Trump can say he attacked, and now he can and may very well order a pull out. It’s hard to see right now, but it maybe something that is actually in the offing now.
Secondly, for all those desiring to see Russia retaliate — there is absolutely no need based on tonight’s action. Clearly the western powers thought hard and long before striking Russia, which is an explicit win for Putin. What they have given him is a pretext to provide SAM to Syria. In addition, thy may very well provide them to Yemen. Putin is well on his way of creating a seamless radar network to create a no-fly zone for western air forces over time.
The US is literally handing the ME over to the Russians on a silver platter. They are betting on battle hardened armies, while western powers are relying on a bunch of terrorists and half-ass middle eastern armies who can’t even defeat the Houthis.
If the report a little above in these comments is correct, that is if every missile fired at the airbases was defeated, then it seems as if the Syrian air defenses are already quite capable. The one damage seems to have been done to the symbolic target of the old lab that the OPCW had classified as dismantled. Either defending that was a low priority to the air defense because the Syrian knew it wasn’t worth defending, or that perhaps their was a prior deal to let those missiles through to give Trump and the Pentagon a few blown up building to save face.
And, like you said, now Putin is perfectly capable of adding the S-300’s to the Syrian air defenses. If he’d had any internal opposition arguing against perhaps the expense of that, they’ll be quiet now.
“As crazy as it sounds, Trump can say he attacked, and now he can and may very well order a pull out. It’s hard to see right now, but it maybe something that is actually in the offing now.”
Give the man a chance, eh.
http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-43771840
“President Donald Trump has warned Syria’s government the US is “locked and loaded” to strike again if it carries out chemical attacks.”
Nothing has chsnged much since WW2. You just can’t win a war without having that terrible moment when sending boots on the ground and put grunts pay the price. Also all weapon systems especially offensive one will later taste the bitter reality of anti weapon systems blocking and destroying them. Defense in long run will take advantage. In offensive the price of blood is inevitable.
Westeners, but especially American media and public is unable to focus that grim reality of war. These folks are living in high techno war fantasies.They are still trapped to that Gulf War 1991 euforia. But there dream is now over.
Worthwhile the OPCW actually checking the usa so claimed chemical lab…production and storage facilities ? Or is any evidence that could have proved there was nothing there now destroyed to continue the meme that Russia is responsible for not controlling Assad….more Russia is guilty because it cannot prove its innocence….. Douma inspection to proceed? Any evidence uk France and usa had was not presented through OPCW….is this organisation now totally discredited as powerless as the bigger picture was it had certified Russia and Syria had destroyed their chemical weapons…..will the next effort(note Mattis said “at this moment”) will be TM and allies to continue and reinforce their meme now that as Syria continued with chem weapons Russia continued to develop and manufacture store chemical weapons such as the novichok….surely that is where it is heading next….as Russias examination of Salisbury report is in due process?
Judging by comments there is still much confusion as to what has occurred.
First off, the opinion of locals in Damascus is crystal clear. This is a resounding victory for Syria, Russia, Iran and Hezbollah, amongst so many others who’ve been cheering for the good guys for 7 long years.

The Truth is revealed for all the world to see.
Russian top brass reports it has proof of UK’s involvement in Douma chemical incident
MOSCOW, April 13. /TASS/. Russia’s defense ministry has evidence proving the United Kingdom’s direct involvement in the organization of the provocation with the alleged chemical attack in Eastern Ghouta, Igor Konashenkov, the ministry’s spokesman, said on Friday.
He said the ministry had found those who took part in filming the rent-a-mob chemical attack in Syria’s Douma and these people told how the video had been shot.
“Today, the Russian defense ministry has other evidence proving the United Kingdom’s direct involvement in the organization of this provocation in Eastern Ghouta,” he said.
http://tass.com/defense/999641
Beware all those screaming about Donald Trump, including Alex Jones having a nervous breakdown. LOL. Although some may be genuinely attempting to cover for the US President as part of the ongoing psyop, most Trump critics are UK and/or Zionist trolls thinking ahead to Congressional elections in November.
For the record, the attack on Syria was essentially a FAKE, co-engineered by Russia and select ‘partners’ in the White House. The attempt by the UK to plant a chemical false flag on Bashar Assad’s government, however, was quite REAL, so please give credit where credit is due and let’s prosecute the War Criminals of the UK and International Zionist Cabal.
If I remember, there was a report about Trump delegating the previous missiles attack in Syria to ishreal. Eight missiles were fired, 5 were shot down.
At that time, I thought the whole issue of a military strike in Syria was a planned show – planned by US, UK… with Syria, Russia consent – to clear face of western powers, since Syria had won the war against terrorism, thanks to Russia and allies – Iran, Hezbollah, China… It makes sense, even now.
If this is true, Trump is an expert in media. He is making the neocons look fools for those that know what is really going on.
Any captured combatants from East Ghouta would of been moved to a secure site, a military barracks in Damascus would probably be where they were being held. Any chance that the attack on the SAA barracks, which only occurred in Damascus, was to remove any witnesses to what went on in East Ghouta, meaning the British, French, American, Israeli and Saudi intelligence officers?
Yes, If they had the co-ordinates then ‘our’ government would have no compunction at all in targeting captured ‘advisors’ rather than allowing them to embarrass the self-righteous morons who pretend to lead us.
The captured ‘advisors’ must also accept that this is a reality of life–their training will have left them in no doubt at all.
The US Code of Military Justice states that it is incumbent on all regular soldiers to refuse an illegal order. UK and France have similar codes. These ‘advisors’ are war criminals just as Trump, May and Macron are, and there is no question—– they all know it and understand the consequences.
The lesson learnt today is that it is safe poking the bear with a stick. I feel humiliated for the Russians and the Syrians.
The lesson I learnt today is that the F.UK.US didn’t have the balls to do more than a false attack, and actually didn’t destroy anything in Syria.
It is a resounding victory for Syria, and a complete humiliation for the US and associates.
Russia didn’t even have to move a finger.
Retired Russian General Evgeny Buzinhsky told Sky News that Putin will choose war over disgrace.
how was he mistaken.
Who are these idiots saying the Russians backed down or claiming they some how disgraced themselves?
It is the United States that has backed down, with a fake attack, and will now be withdrawing from Syria (hopefully), thanks to Russian strength and forbearance, and 7 years of ferocious resistance by the people of Syria, Hezbollah and with much help from Iran.
I get the impression a lot of suicidal people are unhappy they will have to do the job of killing themselves on their own.
Agree…or they are just working for the same people they claim to be fighting against….
“You were given the choice between war and dishonour. You chose dishonour, and you will have war.”
Winston Churchill to Neville Chamberlain, 1938.
Who are these idiots that still believe one can stop Hitler by using restraint ?
Churchill never wished Hitler being defeated, for starters, he was a nazi himself, thus what´s the point of your rhetoric question I wonder….
“It is the United States that has backed down, with a fake attack, and will now be withdrawing from Syria (hopefully), thanks to Russian strength and forbearance”
How does this fit with your previous assertion regarding the war of the global oligarchy against mankind and, perhaps, a few warships on the bottom of the Med so that control of the plebes can be ratcheted up?
Are the “Russians” no longer a part of that global plan?
Inconsistency is confusing.
Come on guys, this was a farse. What really matters is what happened inside the US government.
No doubt. Drump called Putin’s bluff. Putin is saying the right things… asking for an OPCW investigation and a UN Security Council meeting. But those are impotent gestures against bombs and missiles.
Putin promised retaliation for attacks on Syria, which include targets in the capital of a key ally. A thin cover was attached regarding the safety of Russian personnel, so maybe technically Putin was good on his word.
Still. the US and allies have attacked with impunity and Putin’s bluff has been called.
“…the Neocon-run Trump administration…”
The ziocon-run administration. The zionized US military and Congress have lost any vestiges of dignity. Trump’s battle cry “MAGA” is a cry by an Israel-first-infected host.
The same bloody subhumans of Zionist education, which had been killing people in the open on Good Friday, are testing the Russians’ patience today. Would not it be great if the puppeteers were identified and eliminated one by one?
The Jewish Communities of the US and the UK have been pandering to the worst criminals of this century.
Saker, I like your site, I like your thinking, I like your analyses, I like your comments, I like your presenting Russia in a completely different light than what is spewed out of the US government’s MSM mouthpieces.
But today I must disagree with you. We do not need to wait 24 hours, or whatever period. There was an attack on Syria, and Russia did …. zilch. Russia should not have left it to the Syrians to try to shoot down those missiles, Russia should have played an active role in that, incl. a retaliatory attack on the launching pads. Why? For the simple reason that in the run-up to this psychopathic attack Russia said it would do all those things.
Instead, it did nothing and has simply regurgitated its old, worn mantra “there will be serious consequences”. Serious consequences? For god’s sake, when will those be implemented, when Armageddon is upon us? And what will those consequences be, a whine and another UNSC meeting called? What kind of an ally is this? What kind of a counter-weight to the Empire-in-decline is this?
I am totally disgusted by Russia’s behaviour, and even though at this stage I don’t want to use the word “coward”, it really is on the tip of my tongue.
And those Western imperialist psychopaths are just laughing at Russia as if it is a toothless tiger and will continue to wipe their behinds with Putin’s grandiose statements. And that also puts Putin’s 1st March “threat” with his new weapons in a real context: one is now inclined to think it was all bluff.
Did your Dad fight all your battles for you, or did he do a better job and teach you how to fight and then stand back to let you prove yourself capable of defending yourself, to yourself–ultimately the only one who needs or can use that reassurance?
We all have to grow up in the world of adults, good dads do the latter.
Excellent take on reality, while the boy is still sitting in front of his X-Box mingling with the love of his life the joystick thinking that he will resurrect his life after he restarts the game. Life is a bitch boy, it’s not a video game. go and play your pokemon.
Leave my dad out of it, even if you can’t find anything more sensible to say.
The reality (which you obviously prefer to stay away from) is that the U$ and its Ziofascist master understands only 1 thing: violence. As long as Russia keeps accepting the denigration, the Empire-in-decline will perceive Russia as weak, and perception is the only thing that counts. A Russia that is perceived to be weak will be provoked repeatedly, so this provocation wil not be the last one. Each time Russia chooses to not show its teeth will bring the next confrontation inevitably closer to a nuclear showdown.
The U$ coordinated with Russia about avoiding Russian personnel & installations in order to carry out the attack to save face. Russia could have & should have negotiated a “face-saving” action too, such as intercepting a few missiles, or even a fighter jet. The Empire-in-decline needs to be brought to a halt in its incessant provocations of Russia.
So, there you have it. Now crawl back under your rock where it is safe & comfortable, and where you don’t have to face reality.
OPCW Mission Vows to Continue Deployment in Syria After Missile Attack
https://sputniknews.com/world/201804141063554885-opcw-syria-douma-chemical-weapons-probe/
Looks like France dared not actually launching missiles.
http://eng.mil.ru/en/news_page/country/more.htm?id=12171300@egNews
US alongside its allies conducted a missile strike by its air and naval carriers targeting military and civil facilities of the Syrian Arab Republic on April 14 in the period from 3.42 am till 5.10 am (MSK).
The Russian air defence systems at the Khmeimim and Tartus air base timely located and controlled all naval and air launches made by the USA and the UK.
Announced French aircraft have not been registered by the Russian air defence systems.
It is reported that the B-1B, F-15 and F-16 aircraft of the USAF as well as the Tornado airplanes of the UK RAF over the Mediterranean Sea, and the USS Laboon and USS Monterey located in the Red Sea were used during the operation.
The B-1B strategic bombers approached the facilities over the Syrian territory near al-Tanf illegally seized by the USA.
A number Syrian military airfields, industrial and research facilities suffered the missile-bomb strike.
As preliminary reported, there are no civilian casualties and losses among the Syrian Arab Army (SAA). Information will be further specified and made public.
As evident by the available data, 103 cruise missiles have been launched, including Tomahawk naval-based missiles as well as GBU-38 guided air bombs fired from the B-1B; the F-15 and F-16 aircraft launched air-to-surface missiles.
The Tornado airplanes of the UK RAF launched eight Scalp EG missiles.
The Syrian air defence systems, which are primarily the USSR-made AD systems, have successfully countered the air and naval strikes.
In total, 71 cruise missiles have been intercepted. The S-125, S-200, Buk, Kvadrat, and Osa Syrian AD systems were involved in repelling the attack.
It proves high efficiency of the Syrian armament and professional skills of the Syrian servicemen trained by the Russian specialists.
Over the last eighteen months, Russia has completely recovered the Syrian air defence systems, and continues its development.
It is to be stressed that several years ago given the strong request by our western partners, Russia opted out of supplying the S-300 AD systems to Syria. Taking into account the recent incident, Russia believes it possible to reconsider this issue not only regarding Syria but other countries as well.
The strike targeted Syrian air bases as well. Russia has registered the following data.
Four missiles targeted the Damascus International Airport; 12 missiles – the Al-Dumayr airdrome, all the missiles have been shot down.
18 missiles targeted the Blai airdrome, all the missiles shot down.
12 missiles targeted the Shayrat air base, all the missiles shot down. Air bases were not affected by the strike.
Five out of nine missiles were shot down targeting the unoccupied Mazzeh airdrome.
Thirteen out of sixteen missiles were shot down targeting the Homs airdrome. There are no heavy destructions.
In total 30 missiles targeted facilities near Barzah and Jaramana. Seven of them have been shot down. These facilities allegedly relating to the so-called “Damascus military chemical programme” were partially destructed. However, the objects have not been used for a long time, so there were no people and equipment there.
The Russian air defence systems have been alerted. Fighter jets are on combat air patrol now.
There were no cruise missiles entering the Russian AD responsibility area. The Russian air defence systems were not applied.
Russia considers the strike to be a response to the success of the Syrian Armed Forces in fighting international terrorism and liberating its territory, rather than a response to the alleged chemical attack.
Besides, the attack took place on a day when the Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) special mission was to start working on investigating incident in the city of Douma where chemical attack allegedly occurred.
It is to be stressed that there are no facilities on producing chemical weapons in Syria, and this has been documented by the OPCW.
The American aggression proves that the USA is not interested in objectivity of the ongoing investigation, seeks to wreck peaceful settlement in Syria and destabilize environment in the Middle East, and all these have nothing to do with declared objectives of countering international terrorism.
Currently the situation in Damascus and other settlements is assessed to be stable.The environment is being monitored
I am of the view that the RF went in ( plus Iran plus Hezbollah) and upgraded, trained and mentored the SAA to become a formidable fighting force. The RF MoD through warnings and threats, like blackjack bombers now stationed in Iran, made sure that its junior partner was not obliterated out of existence on trumped (pun intended) up charges. The result was a very subdued attack in which the damage is minimal if news from Syrian and Russian sources are to be taken at face value. Yes, it appears that the Russian AD stood aside like when you have full confidence that your son has the ability by virtue of superior training and experience to take on the schoolyard bully. But you still remain ever watchful to make sure it isn’t a hopeless lopsided fight. In this case the Syrian government has graduated to the point of not only defeating the proxies of the Empire (with a little help from her friends) but also being able to weather most of the brunt of this brutal attack by three nuclear UNSC veto wielding powers. On the other hand, these “three amigos” face increased scrutiny and opposition to their autocratic rule at home. Now, nothing prevents the RF from selling S-400s + ASM to Syria, Lebanon, Yemen, Iran….
Your World War 3 didn’t come. The Syrians kicked the American missiles out of the sky. If the US wasn’t petrified of Russia and had sent them into harms way, It would have been planes too – and ships out of the sea.
Two things come to my mind:
1. Putin is a chicken.
or
2. Russia is ruled by Oligarchy clans, and Putin is what trump in US, tha last word for public consumption.
Today is dark day, a very sad day.
Connecting the dots between Skripal false flag and Chem false flag:
March 4 2018 Sergei and Yulia Skripal are attacked with a nerve agent in Salisbury
March 6 2018 Boris Johnson blames Russia and calls Russia “a malign force”
March 7 2018 Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman of Saudi Arabia arrives in London for an official visit
March 13 2018 Valeri Gerasimov, Russian Chief of General Staff, states that Russia has intelligence a fake chemical attack is planned against civilians in Syria as a pretext for US bombing of Damascus, and that Russia will respond militarily.
March 19 2018 Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman of Saudi Arabia arrives in Washington for an official visit
April 8 2018 Crown Prince Mohammed Bin Salman of Saudi Arabia arrives in Paris for an official visit
April 8 2018 Saudi funded jihadist groups Jaysh al Islam and Tahrir al-Sham and UK funded jihadist “rescue group” The White Helmets claim a chemical weapons attack occurred in their enclave of Douma the previous day – just before its agreed handover to the Syrian army – and blame the Syrian government.
April 11 2018 Saudi Arabia pledges support for attack on Syria
April 14 2018 US/UK/French attack on Syria begins.
I have always denied the UK’s claim that only Russia had a motive to attack the Skripals. To denigrate Russia internationally by a false flag attack pinning the blame on Russia, always seemed to me more likely than for the Russians to do that to themselves. And from the start I pointed to the conflict in Syria as a likely motive. That puts Saudi Arabia (and its client jihadists), Saudi Arabia’s close ally Israel, the UK and the USA all in the frame in having a powerful motive in inculcating anti-Russian sentiment prior to planned conflict with Russia in Syria. Any of them could have attacked the Skripals.

As highlighted in the comment above, Craig Murray writes:
I have always denied the UK’s claim that only Russia had a motive to attack the Skripals.
More explicitly, several days before he writes:
I have never ruled out the possibility that Russia is responsible for the attack in Salisbury, amongst other possibilities.
https://www.craigmurray.org.uk/archives/2018/04/the-rush-to-war/
Concerning the statements made by Murray above:
Unlike Craig Murray, I immediately ruled out the possibility Russia was behind the attack on the Skirpals because I understand the concept of motive and further because everything spoken in the Perfidious dialect, especially by former UK Ambassadors to multiple countries being raped by British (Rothschild) interests, especially in Africa, and who supposedly get removed from their posts for lecturing an Uzbek President on the subject of human rights (haha), is always a lie.
Craig Murray is yet another of these supremely slippery British eels, fond of pretending to be one of the good guys when in fact he is a psyop agent of the UK regime.
I tend to agree with you, all those websites where former people from UK government or Pentagon pretend to oppose the attack against Syria, I think they are there only to catch dissent….
Some of these websites just cutted off the guest option of comments overnight….making it impossbile to comment if you do not register yourself by adding a real email account….thus get out your own conclusions….
Craig Murray is alao all out in favour of Catalonian Independence Movement…what must say you something, since that is a project of corporate capital and enterprise for the Federalisation of Europe, through breaking the current antion-states there, and then of the world to be ruled by a unique world governement…..
Once is one thing – twice is a pattern.
The US, UK and France will rightly bill this as a success because it’s the second time they have done this and Russia has done nothing. This time not even some EW to jam missiles and… they “deconflicted” the skies for the American attack. Hey – that “deconfliction” makes them accessories.
So the Russians talked the US down from a full blown attack to a token strike – so what – that is appeasement. Hell, France didn’t even fire a missile and already they’re yammering about more “chemical attacks by the Asaad Regime.” Appeasing aggressors encourages more aggression. It always has and it will now. Each act of appeasement ups the aggression and ups the stakes. It will lead to war. Real war. War between the US and Russia.
Mr Putin needs to remember two things:-
Mr Chamberlain’s “Peace in our times” and his Leningrad days.
End it NOW – or the world as we know it will end.
All US actions are a test of “managing expectations” and weighing market (maker) responses. The specific targets and the intensity of the aggression are secondary. They were able to get France and of course the old royals on board. Surely a few bottles of Rothschild Lafite will be opened in “the City” to celebrate. MBS will be there, with his guarantee of “only X amount will be sold in Yuan”. Bubbles for Bibi.
The twisted motives of the organism of generational wealth are incomprehensible to the common man, but beneath the layers of deceit, their human nature is predictable.
Knight takes rook. Protect the King.
France and Uk,want more attacks IF new Chem attacks by Assad.As it is clear there was zero chem attack by Assad,of course they will stage more false flags.The goal seems to be to get rid of Assad before the World Cup
This is their last window(or during the cup).After it will be too late for 6 years.Even if they sent 100 missiles tonight(71 missed their targets)be sure it was just a message for Putin,they pretty don’t care about fake or real Chem attacks,children,democracy,freedom,even about Syria ..THE target the big price is IRAN.For them,now Putin must surrender,if he does,he will have(for a small moment) a face saving solution.MBS is behind the schedule of both Skripal and Douma.Why RF does not attack KSA,it is the main problem and main sponsor of all of this mess,as Qatar changed his mind since the saudi blocus.Erdogan enyoys the attack.I’m sorry but RF must now act with force,(not only military on specific targets).No more diplomacy.Sanction Turkey once again,attack KSA,kill MBS(should be easy with special forces).Then main problem is gone.The West will capitulate for Syria(afraid of economical appocalypse).They will try their chance in the Donbass but there RF should tell Merkel and Micron to move their a…or espect war if they don’t.
And then Turkey handed Afrin over to Macron so the frogs can have their boiling pot to sit in to wait therein until the UK conducts a CW novichok flase flag against them. The novichok will resemble the 2016 co-developmemt of novichok nerve agents by Iran and the OPCW.
Didn’t manage to find any mentioning that according to General Stuff of Russian Ministry of Defence approximately 70 of 103 launched missiles were taken down by Syrian (read Soviet) air-defence systems in US/UK press.
http://tass.ru/armiya-i-opk/5125673
Why Russian military interfere if Syrian Army weakened in years of internal war can effectively resist nice and new and “smart!” missiles with air-defence systems dated by 1970s?
Russian media say total 3 to 6 Syrians wounded on this air-strike. Did US coalition really succeed?
It was much more military farce than proof of western military power.

To everyone who is currently celebrating, a gigantic task force is em route from Norfolk, a carrier battle group, this was the first strike, to test , additional strikes coming, they’re going to up the intensity

“The US previously used navy destroyers when it struck Syria in April 2017. This time, experts expect the strike to be bigger. Russia has threatened to shoot down US missiles and the ships that fire them, but the US has a massive advantage over Russia’s forces, should they try to fight back.
Once the Truman carrier strike group arrives, “the US will be able to clean up the eastern Mediterranean in a conventional fight any day,” Ryan Bohl, a Middle East analyst at the geopolitical consulting firm Stratfor, previously told Business Insider.”

Do ypu really think it is all over??
“Robert Karem, US Deputy Defense Minister for International Security Affairs, said that anti-Russian sanctions would be preserved as the US administration does not want to let Russia destabilize the state of affairs in Ukraine further. He also noted that the USA supports the idea of the peacekeeping mission in the Donbass.

“The US and its partners will continue to pressure Russia to comply with the Minsk accords. Sanctions will continue until this condition is implemented. Sanctions in connection with Crimea will also remain in effect until the annexation of the peninsula ends,” Karem said.”

They can swear all they want. Read my lips “It will not happen”. Now, I just read something yesterday, they are cooking another one “Russia is dumping radioactive $hit in Donbas”. I wonder if it came from Porky’s Chernobyl. Well, they’ll try and try, until one day they’ll eat dirt.
I could be wrong, but was glad to hear this news and phoned London radio (LBC) to say so. This looks like a face-saving theatrical event that occurred with Russia’s agreement.
It appears that there was no military engagement of forces and NO DEATHS (3 Syrians injured, we are told … hopefully not seriously). A small price to pay for avoiding (or postponing, at the very least) WWIII.
A few empty warehouses got bombed. The USA/UK/France will never admit to being a bunch of criminal warmongering liars but it appears they are sane enough not to want to die themselves in an all-out war against a nuclear Russia (plus others).
Phew!
Relax. Have a cup of coffee. Take a nice stroll on a bright saturday afternoon (Well, it’s sunny here anyway).
Glad tidings to the living world and thanks to the One above.
I had a strong impression, that this wild criminal attack shows real desperation, and (hopefully not just wishful thinking) represents the beginning of the end of this satanic death cult that rules our world.

I’m not sure if I agree with The Saker about this one. To me, last night operation reads as “please, put as all into a mental institution, can’t you see we’re all nuts?”. The 3 most powerful western nuclear nations gathering together to drop 3 wet matches… I’m happy it didn’t have more serious consequences but I can’t see any other goal to it than to show Syrian people celebrations. I really don’t see a rationale, except “go ahead, think we’re all idiots and we’ll surprise you real hard next”. #PuzzledLikeHell

Rational analysis by Andrew Korybko and one of the most realistic reviews I have read so far.
http://www.eurasiafuture.com/2018/04/14/the-syrian-show-must-go-on/
In summary it is just a highly choreographed show between the military super powers, namely the US (Hegemon) and Russia. This show will continue, meaning more similar strikes in the near future, in order to force Mr.Assad to make concessions like agreeing on Russia prepared constitution, UN prepared election schedule and of course removal of Iran and Hizballah from Syria. It will also lead to a partition (federalization) of Syria very much in similar lines as in Iraq. We will see how much longer Mr.Assad will resist.
Current situation also shows, that the Euroasian powers, especially Russia and China, are far from a unified stand against the Hegemon. The Uni-polar World Order seems to be quite in tact and may remain as such for an unforeseeable duration ahead of us.
Just reads like a Zionist wishlist to me…
Unfettered Zionist attacks on Syria? Check
Assad must go? Check
Partition the country? Check
“prepared Constitution” aka private central bank? Check
No thanks — think I’ll pass on this one.
This video may have already been posted, of Alex Jones exploding on the US President following the FAKE attack on Syria, but to give it the proper context, UK government trolls are attempting to severely damage their enemy Donald Trump ahead of November Congressional elections, and thus help elect a ‘blue wave’ of anti Trump candidates so he can be impeached, with the objective of helping the UK Zionist Cabal recapture the White House.

4/14/2018
Friday I was home reading a book around 11:20pm est. when I heard about the cruise missile strikes on Syria. My immediate reaction was, “I don’t believe what I’m witnessing, I don’t believe it; it can’t be really happening.” I waited and waited with a lump in my throat to see how Russia would respond militarily . . . nothing, no counterattack, silence.
Despite the clear warning in recent days from Russian Defense Ministry personnel and members of the Foreign Ministry that a strike on Syrian soil would not be tolerated, it was indeed. No U.S. Navy ship was threatened; they launched their projectiles of death just like in April of last year.
How many innocent Syrians including children died last night, I wonder?
We Americans are conditioned by many influences throughout our lives that our military would never purposefully destroy other nations and their people without verifiable cause. Last night’s assault was not justified by any sane measure; it can only be described as pure evil. Our country is led by terrorists and thugs who wear suits of arrogance and command their henchmen clothed in costumes adorned with undeserved medals and ribbons to make war over and over and over again.
Today in the bowels of Washington, DC they gloat about how they disgraced President Putin, his government, his military and the Russian people. Israel dances the Horah and sings Hava Nagila in the Knesset at the success of the marionettes they control in America. The U.S. representative to the UN Nikki Haley, who I can only describe as a gelatinous shrew, will announce that “Justice was rendered by the U.S. against the tyrant Bashar Assad,” like vigilantes who have no need for evidence or a trial.
The bully has won and will not be stopped. The U.S. is now threatening Iran with a similar attack. They have momentum and will sail their warships through the Bosporus Strait in great numbers oblivious to any vessel restrictions placed upon the parties to the Montreux Convention Regarding the Regime of the Straits and anchor off the coast of Crimea.
What will Russia do then, wait until after the bows are strung, the arrows nocked and released into the motherland? One of us in the Saker community and our treasured friend Auslander and his family lives there, remember?
Something to think about, world cup 2018 is about to start in Russia mid June. I dont think Russia would engage in any conflict at the moment, but after the sport event? let’s see.
Another of the obvious examples this strike was a FAKE is the claim that most US cruise missiles were shot down by Syrian air defenses. The best Syrian air defenses are S200’s, of which they have precious few, and which are in any case weapons meant to shoot down aircraft at altitude, not low flying cruise missiles.
So either Russia managed to shoot down or jam most of these missiles by itself, which is highly unlikely given the risks of revealing their countermeasures, or else the story is completely untrue.
Let me weigh in for a minute, after initial despair, facts are coming in:
Close to no victims according to RU mod
USA didn’t warn RU, but France did – officially
France may have fired 1 (one) missile, maybe none
Flight missions are already starting up and it’s business as usual
Out of 113 missiles, 70 were shot down
Not anything worth starting WW3 over. The game continues.
Decisive Failure Of US Forces
https://southfront.org/decisive-failure-of-us-forces/
Early on April 14, the US, France and the UK carried out a massive missile strike on Syria justifying their actions with the alleged involvement of the Assad government into the April 7 Douma “chemical attack”.
The Russian Defense Minsitry stated that:
103 cruise and air-to-surface missiles were launched on different targets across Syria adding that 71 of them were intercepted by the Syrian Air Defense Forces (SADF).
“According to available information, a total of 103 cruise missiles were fired… The Syrian air defense systems basically comprising Soviet-made weapons successfully repelled the strikes by aircraft and naval ships. A total of 71 missiles were intercepted,” Head of the Russian General Staff’s Main Operations Department Colonel-General Sergei Rudskoi said.
Rudskoi said that the SADF had used its S-125, S-200, Buk, Kvadrat and Osa air defense systems to repel the strike.
The Syrian General Command said that the US, the UK and France had launched 110 missiles also adding that most of them were intercepted.
The numbers provided raise serious questions.
Some experts contacted by SouthFront said that even theoretically the SADF had not been capable to shoot down more than 15-20% of the launched missiles using its S-125, S-200, Buk, Kvadrat and Osa systems only. The SADF just does not have enough means and measures to intercept such a number of missiles simultaneously in one striking wave.
So what really happened?
The experts suggested that the Russian military had possibly used its state-of-the-art electronic warfare (EW) systems to counter the launched missiles during their final phase of flight path.
The most part of the flight path, the guidance for the Tomahawk cruise missile is provided by GPS. However, in the final phase, the missile starts using its internal guidance system. During this phase of the flight path the missile is vulnerable for EW counter-measures.
The missiles impacted by EW systems start to steer off. The missiles’ speed significantly reduces and they become an easy target for air defense systems or fall.
Another factor, which “highly likely” contributed to the effectiveness of the Syrian counter-measures, is that Russia had provided the Syrian military with operational data from its technical reconnaissance net, including satellites and other surveillance means. Likely, Iran had done a similar thing. Thus, missiles launched from the Red Sea were detected immediately and were being tracked during all their flight path.
Using tracking data, Russian-made air defense systems are capable of shooting down cruise missiles with a relatively high efficiency.
In any case, the 71 intercepted missiles of 103 launched are a decisive failure for the US and its allies. No doubts, the US military leadership did not expect this scenario.
So here is what we have so far: Fake attack for the fake news consumers. Nothing more. I agree with some of the statements above; The empire just keeps on farting from indigestion… It is stinking badly but causing no harm to the rest of us. We just need some fresh air and wait for this monstrosity to gas itself to death with its own gas. Russia, Syria and Iran won! Not a single hit of any significance. None! Hence all the dancing on the streets of Damascus. Most of all, I’m glad to be alive and have more time to prepare my exit strategy, away from this “politically correct” police societies.
Sorry, but it does cause harm to people. Think of Syrians suffering and dying every day, not to mention the Iraqis, Yemenis, Afganis, and the list goes on and on.
I don’t remember the last time when any of these nations (apart from Syria) came to defend Russia at the UN, or any other globalists fake platforms. I don’t mean people; I mean their governments. This is sad but one of the reasons Russia didn’t get involved in the Ukraine to the extend it should’ve been, is because most of people wanted Russians to come, fight and die for their freedoms while they were watching tv and playing games.
These attacks have followed a pattern that provides increasing clarity to the situation. It should be pointed out first that attacking Syria does not serve the interests of the United States. Trump is clearly following orders. Moreover, I don’t believe Trump wants World War III. Even crazies such as John McCain do not want nuclear war with Russia based on statements they have made. This is due to considerations of simple self interest and survival. This is nothing to do with “Patriotism” in any sense. The same would apply to caution expressed by US military command. They do appear to have convinced themselves that they can carry out an extremely dangerous set of strategic goals, however.
That’s the good news, I guess. The bad news is, as I said, Trump is following orders. The potential bad news is that those issuing the orders have no allegiance or ultimate interest in the fate of the United States and are part of the globalist oligarchic class. They are one worlders and may be of various national affiliations. They may in fact be perfectly ok with Russia and the US destroying each other.
The strategy Trump seems to be pursuing is referred to as passive-aggressive. He cannot ignore the orders he is given but can carry them out in a half-hearted ineffective manner. I’ve often felt that the Kiev government is pursuing a similar strategy.
Trump’s masters won’t quit though, and this is the real threat. Clearly Israel is absolutely key to this situation. Unless Israel is disciplined there would seem to be little respite in sight.

Dear Saker,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sKui109OpWo&sns=fb
We found the above footage on the internet which appear Jihadist practicing their deception of faking a chemical weapons attack. Can you check and comment.
I am posting from Africa where there is tremendous support for President Putin.
Perfidious Ruskis betrayed Syrian people by allowing AngloZionist carry their crime. They are accomplices in crime. They are the same as their Western Partners. They response as seen on RT.com are full of the same shit as usual. What a shame for Russian nation to be governed by the bunch of criminal Jewish mafiosos like Petin, Lavrov & company. There is no hope for the humanity to be free and line peacefully life only as the slaves under the Jewish home in totalitarian state.
CONGRATULATIONS!! To the Russians for their restraint and performance of the basic principles of “The Art of War”.
Timing was perfect. Firing of a 100+ obsolete missiles at empty warehouses etc. on THIS day, couldn’t have been better for all of us.
THEY were cornered, and had not many options, other than try this pathetic move to “save face”.
“Bang their chest’s”, “Mission accomplished” – “Declare victory and go home” etc. doesn’t cut it this time.
As stated before: “A hammer consider anything/anywhere to be a nail”
This time however. The nails is in their own coffin. BIG TIME. Throwing dung around doesn’t help either.
For the disappointed “war mongers” here” (and all others actually), please study “The Art of War”.
I published this online flash version 2 or more years back.

Again, Congratulations to the Russians, and the brave Syrians. What a relief!!
Kent
* militarily insignificant
* viewed as a victory by Syrian people
* viewed as an illegal annoyance by RF government
* might enhance the approval rating of Trump in the US, as many Americans take the use of chemical weapons charges seriously (including my mother), though the ‘benefit’ will be meager, as Trump haters will view this as “wag the dog”, while many Americans sympathetic to Trump are opposed, including influencers like Tucker Carlson and Alex Jones
* in view of the previous point, there seems even more reason for the Russians to address their gross deficiencies in benign propaganda, benign psyops, PR: in general, communication to NATO PUBLICS, by RF; why does Putin not offer to be interviewed by Tucker Carlson? Waiting until Carlson is ‘Phil Donahued’ would be huge mistake.
USA of AIPAC: modern-day MORDOR
No wonder both ‘1984’ and Mordor were invented in England – it’s always been a totalitarian shit-hole filled with psychopaths who have no honor, no love for anyone and no loyalty. Natural traitors obsessed with hoarding in a scarcity mentality and zero-sum games. …that’s all they know.
Like those characters from Lord of the Ring – they are savages with no honor or empathy. That’s why such monstrosities have always been valued in the UK (and their Zionist masters the most psychopathic ‘culture’ of all – normal people find it hard to kill, rape and steal – not so psychopaths and that’s why any empire needs such pathological characters.
after so many years of promoting them – they are now out of control with the rest of the population being like fearful obedient salves.
I share your total disgust, Saker.
I never felt so humiliated, seeing the subhuman Empire so « clearly spitting in the face of Russia daring her to “do something about it”… »? So that is Putin’s « strike first » stand? That is what all the Russian warnings to the Empire gone mad have led to?
I never bowed down and worshipped the Empire. I never will, no matter what.
One of the most disappointing things today must be the level of comments under this article.
First of all we do need to wait because a lot of information is still coming. If what is publicly known so far is even 50% true, this was an extremely ineffective attack, mostly for political purposes. it was also specifically designed to avoid the Russian personnel at all costs(which should make it quite clear that they are not too keen to get in to a real confrontation with them).
Second I am not inclined to believe that it was only the Syrians that were manning the SAMs. I am even less inclined to believe that the jamming that apparently disabled a good portion of the incoming missiles was Syrian.
Third for now the reports indicate that no one was killed.
And last but most important – if all of the above is true(which is why we need to wait for confirmation), what would be there to gain from a Russian counter fire? Nothing of real life significance! But the risk of uncontrollable escalation would be great. Considering we are talking about two countries armed with nuclear weapons in the thousands and one of them has an egocentric dimwit as a commander in chief I thin we should be thankful that the other is not. In any case if Putin didn’t bomb Incirlik for example after Turkey shot down the Russian Su-24 and even tried everything he could to turn them if not to partner, at least in to a compliant semi-neutral, what makes you think that he would get in to a completely unnecessary military confrontation with the US?
Considering the war in Syria is being won on the ground, well let them lob cruise missiles in frustration. Especially if (at least publicly) the Syrians are able to fend it off themselves.
It’s a good luck that none of you are anywhere near(I hope) to a position that would require you to take decisions of this magnitude. All of us would have been turned into radioactive ash long ago.
The point is, “something was done” and various distractions achieved in UK and USA.
As usual with the hyped-up MSM the official western narrative will proceed at pace in a completely parallel ‘fact is irrelevant’ universe: “WE BELIEVE!” therefore it’s real.
By the time the Russians and any others corner the usual suspects into acknowledging to various false pretenses and faux ‘smart’ outcome claims we’ll be well onto the next episode or even one after that in the Reality TV show du jour.
Remember Carl Rove et al?
The aide said that guys like me were “in what we call the reality-based community,” which he defined as people who “believe that solutions emerge from your judicious study of discernible reality.” I nodded and murmured something about enlightenment principles and empiricism. He cut me off. “That’s not the way the world really works anymore.” He continued “We’re an empire now, and when we act, we create our own reality. And while you’re studying that reality—judiciously, as you will—we’ll act again, creating other new realities, which you can study too, and that’s how things will sort out. We’re history’s actors … and you, all of you, will be left to just study what we do.”

I feel physically sick reading these quotes, as they reflect the delusions from sick, evil miscreants. I am very familiar with the psycho-machinations of the Narcissistic Personality Disorder.
Karl Rove et al are fixated at the 3 year- old developmental stages of early childhood. And these personality disordered individuals clump together as so much kitty-litter; with the backing of the Sanhedrin they persecute, shame and blame all attempts to call them out on their perversions, deviancies and straight out crimes against humanity.
Enough.
I agree, the Russians should only shoot back if there is clear and present danger to the Assad government.
If it is true that most of the Tomahawks were shot down or disabled then this should be the end of the chemical weapons false flags. It appears that the only way there will be a successful attack on Syria will be with manned aircraft risking lives. The dead kid videos are only good enough for the painless attacks.
I am afraid that if there is another false flag it will involve dead servicemen. And an accident can always happen.
My guess is this isn’t over yet, but Putin has definitely made the right calls so far.
The Russian General Staff issued a statement, saying that a total of 71 cruise missiles out of 103 had been intercepted by Syria, adding that no government military airfield had been damaged as a result of the attack.
This is hardly reassuring for the Pentagon, bearing in mind that the Syrians were mostly using old Soviet AA missile systems.
Saker please, shed some knowledge here because someone is not telling the truth which isn’t surprising as truth is the very first casualty in war.
We are told that Russia didn’t engage its S300/S400 or not even with their very capable EW assets.
Yet, the 71/105 kill ratio reported is phenomenal compared to the performance of Patriots in Gulf War, against Houthis’ missiles in Saudi Arabia, THAAD, David Sling, Iron Dome, etc.
Moreover, these were TLAM which follow cruise not ballistic trajectories. They are slower but hug the ground.
We are left to guess what really happened. Maybe there is some exaggeration from both parties.
I know that the White Helmets false flags and the Iraq invasion lies strongly suggest that the “three amigos” or three musketeers are probably the longer nosed Pinocchios.
I also know that it was reported that SAA AD were able to take down 5/8 Israeli Delilah cruise missiles a week ago. That is very high kill ratio too considering these are cruise missiles not ballistic. Slow but hugging the ground.
However, what really happened just now?
1) Russian EW?
2) Iranian EW?
3) Russia provided real time SIGINT to SAA AD?
4) An Old batch of TLAM used beyond their use by date?
5) SAA Pantsyr batteries are really good?
6) Luck
How can we believe that 77 TLAMs were launched against a single building. That is totally nuts!
OTOH, If the interception videos are to be believed, how come the detonations are so high up in altitude when my understanding is that cruise missiles fly low hugging the ground? Could it be that interception missiles are just self destroying if they don’t make contact with target?
If this is called a Western “success” it won’t be repeated because the TLAMs are a disaster, like the Patriots and the F35. That would be the proof. Lack of follow on salvo means the three amigos are going back to drawing board.
If the sales of S300 family and export EW Suites goes through the roof that would be another proof of their effectiveness
Please Saker, write an analysis that takes all the OSI in consideration.
Thanks

As said above, do not draw conclusions until the information is in.
Thank you Saker.
It is very comforting to know that sanity does in fact still exist, and not everyone has been a successful ideological clone-job, by the empire.
Thank you for providing this sanctuary for the community (of the sane) to commiserate.
Let us take the good:
It was limited and careful (I use that word advisedly, of course).
The Russians did the sane and manly thing (yes, the ‘manly‘ thing) again, and weathered it out, most likely collecting data at a great level of detail, testing their own systems, calibrating their systems and settings, i.e. learning about the beast!
The beast continues to flaunt the breaking of the law, outside of the mind-control of the hegemon’s perception management systems, people, i.e. humanity, are knowing more and more, about the obsessive psychosis of the beast, most likely a reflection if its master, speaking of which, regardless of their centuries of training and practicing secrecy in their destructive actions, those outside the perception management systems, or raised with enough delta from the baseline norm psychological profile of the empire’s citizenry, have less and less doubt about who all this destructive madness is for.
Again I am reminded the famous words of Princess Leila,”the tighter you squeeze your fist, the more (rebels) will squeeze through your fingers“, also here, in the empire. Just as they cut back on education spending, so those further from the mean (average) were more challenged in school, so that only the truly average can succeed at it (the ‘gifted’ being as challenged as the unfortunate low-liers), this even more pathetic narrative surrounding this … what should be called for what it is, terrorist attack on Syria, by the U.S.A., France, and the UK, supporting Isreal’s illegal existence and sociopathic destructive ambitions.
Many people who wish to keep on dreaming in the fog of the hegemon’s perception management system will, despite themselves perhaps, realize that they have to wake up and personally come to terms with the facts.
It might not be too many, as a percentage of the entire population, but sooner or later, we’ll reach a critical mass, and ironically, because of the way the sheep have been trained, it shall go viral!
So feel good about every minute more we get to breathe comparatively non-radioactive air; with every breath, we draw closer to that critical mass!
Wouldn’t bombing these chemical weapons facilities cause casualties in the surrounding areas? That is if there were chemical weapons in the first place.
Lots of rhetoric from Russia Blah, Blah. So Russia is a paper tiger. But. what if Russia has something else on their agenda ? Syria responds to the attack. The attack is large and loud. At the same time Russia very quickly retakes the Ukraine, thereby reinstating it’s boarders to the same as the time of Catherine the great. If Russia does decide on this path then time is of the essence as NATO protection will soon be in place. Will it work ?
I heard about the attack at about noon, Japan time, from my husband, who said the news had announced a missile attack by the US, UK and France on Syria. About 13 shots, they said. Then, after that, nothing. Not a word. This is a country whose prime time TV is censored by the CIA. Not a word.
The silence is truly pregnant.
Absolutely agree.
Thank you
i hope the libtards get their impeachment tbqh, war criminals and a terror regime is all the US government is. i feel sorry for all the “normal” Americans that will pay for the crimes off their leaders one day.
Saker, your being kind. I think the real message from the US is much, much more hostile. What they are really saying is full throttle Nazi. The AZ empire is saying bow down and kiss my ass you low life maggots to all the rest of us in the world including their own citizens. I notice some of the people I have been trying to convince to take at least some action are finally doing something. They are posting prayer. This means they are scared shit less and maybe thinking they should have listened to people like you and and me and others saying this was coming and act. Do something. I guess prayer is all they can muster and I hope it is enough.
As for me at my mid 70s I am willing to fight but reality says I’d be useless. What I can do is post articles and comments coming out of Russia about the total lies coming out of American “leaders” the most craven, corrupt group of people since Nazi Germany. At this point anything that may help break the grip US media has on people will be done. Lets put a stop to this shit Now!
If it is any indication Nikki Haley made it clear that US is “locked and loaded” if another phony chem attack happens. This means they are already planning one and they want to be the “white knights” riding to the rescue. This is far from over and is “highly likely” to escalate because that is all they have left. I think the whole world sees it now.
I get the impression that these frauds have less and less impact on the American people with each occurance.
Remember, when Obama gave them time to have voice, they clearly told Obama no. In the last election, when Hillary promised attacks on Syria and confrontation with Russia, she was defeated. It doesn’t matter that voting Trump didn’t stop it from happening. What it does show is that the American people are opposed.
There are now growing voices in opposition. Last time around there were prominent voices on major news channels opposing the attacks. This time there were. I tend to live out in the country and avoid most of my fellow-countrypeople, but I didn’t see any big demonstrations demanding to bomb Syria. I saw a big media storm, but didn’t see any crowds of Hillary supporters marching with torches demanding blood. I wonder if Republicans in Congress told Trump to “do this quick or else our phones will be jammed with people telling us no.” Be an interesting thing to find out in DC.
Don’t let a bunch of loud propaganda channels decieve you as to what’s really going on in America. Pay attention to what you don’t see. Hillary wasn’t exactly going around and drawing Trump size crowds to cry for bombs and blood. Didn’t see any marchers demanding bombs and blood for the poor lil children. Just saw a lot of media hype and the usualy wag-the-dog fake news.
“Bow down and worship me!”
…..
And how we do……
UNSC has just voted on a resolution to condemn the aggression against Syria and Only Three Countries voted to condemn, viz., Russia, China and Bolivia.
What a world we live in – where bombs and coercion are now officially acceptable diplomacy.
The countries that declared such aggression acceptable are:-
US, UK, France, Kazakhstan, Peru, Ethiopia, Equatorial Guinea, The Netherlands, Sweden, Cote d’Ivoire, Kuwait and Poland.
I hope those last 11 remember this vote when their turn comes…….
In Revelation 17:12-13 the ten horns representing ten kings, receive power for an hour to give their power to the beast. There are ten non permanent members in the UNSC. These receive power for an hour to give power to the Beast. The Beast is at least one of the five permanent nuclear veto wielding members of the UNSC.
US = member of Axis of Evil
UK = member of Axis of Evil
France = member of Axis of Evil
Kazakastan = hopefully paid well for the vote (Russia might have told them to go ahead and collect on the deal with a vote that really doesn’t hurt Russia)
Peru = American owned government attacking people-friendly governments in the region.
Ethopia = probably dependent on UN and US aid that they couldn’t afford to have cut off as was likely threatened.
Eq. Guinea = probably the same
Holland = NATO, has helped with the fraud of blaming MH-17 on the Russians despite evidence to the contrary. No Surprise
Sweden = might as well be NATO. Military establishment extorts money with constant cries of Russian Threat.
Ivory Coast = again, probaby couldn’t afford to lose the aid
Kuwait = Saudi colony and under full Saudi control, so a certain vote.
Poland = rabid Russia-haters. Unlike Sweden which only extorts money from their taxbase, Poland has an industry of collecting money from the Axis of Evil to counter the big Russian threat. Probably keeps a fair bit of their economy afloat.
Remember, with the two vetoing permanent members, Russia could have told any of these countries not to risk aid or to turn down needed bribes because their voted didn’t really mean anything. If this gets defeated with 6 no votes including 2 vetos, then the world is the same tomorrow except some of these countries lost aid or turned down useful bribes. If the empire wants to bribe them, why stop them?
Bolivia, like China and Russia, had nothing to lose. By having a government that puts its people ahead of American corporate profits, Bolivia is already on the DC hit list.
“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.
If your enemy is secure at all points, be prepared for him.
If he is in superior strength, evade him.
If your opponent is temperamental, seek to irritate him.”
Dear Saker, because I have more respect for your thinking than almost any other writer on this subject, I dare to say that our work is just beginning. We simply need to recognize what is ‘really’ going on.
Bowing down to them is not what they want; in fact, it does not serve their interests. Please take the time to read the comment I posted on my blog today, which I offer to you for your consider with great respect:
Saturday, April 14, 2018 . . . a Comment from ~Jean jhaines6@wordpress.com
Comment: Wake up, people! Wake up! What I believe is really going on here is an attempt to undermine international law and the authority of the United Nations! It is that simple! Forget the complex words of explanation offered by others, because the ‘real’ truth is always simple!
Yes, the United Nations is a thoroughly corrupt organization, but it is the people in the organization that are the problem, not the structure of the Institution itself. If we allow this to happen, we will have no recourse to solve international problems, and our world will be thrown into total chaos. Instead, we must rid ourselves of those who are corrupting the United Nations.
At all cost, we must not permit them to succeed!
Let me suggest, however, that what they are actually doing in reality is destroying themselves. As bad as it now seems, we are going to be forced to do something — or else face our own demise. You see, we need to thank the dark and bless it for moving us forward, Without it, most of us would never even think of changing. Now we are going to be forced to do so.
As Putin says the cabal will bring about its own destruction. This is actually another very spiritual idea. While I intend to speak in some detail on the spiritual aspects of the destruction we are now witnessing, I need to take time and consider my words carefully. Let me just say this destruction must occur in order that we can come together in unity to create a better way of life. Please, take a deep breath and allow yourself to consider what I am sharing so that over time you can decide whether or not you agree with me.
Trump is willing to break international law because his wife’s tears about dead children move him to do so. This is a childish, emotional response, a deadly one, but one which sucked in far too many people. These are not the words we should expect from our leader! A mature man would have comforted his wife and suggested to her that before anything is done, the truth of such a statement needs to be investigated.
A mature person would not call people the heinous names he feels free to throw around. Is his world the sort of world in which we all want to live? If I don’t please him/them, I’m immediately ‘slapped down’ with ugly, brutal words and told to ‘shut up’? Have we totally lost our minds that we even consider allowing this sort of verbiage/thinking in our lives? Huh? ? ?
Someone just shared a Q post with me (HERE) which suggests the possibility that Trump and Putin are really working together. Again, this is a childish idea: Russia, a sovereign state, doesn’t make backroom deals with anyone, as in a mafia-style way of doing business. Also, note how the mind of the good woman sharing this info with us is spinning, spinning, spinning. She can hardly keep up with her words. How can anyone keep up with what this Q is now saying? Well, I don’t think they can, and I think this is being done on purpose. We are being impressed with the idea that someone is taking care of this; just read and believe what we say, because it’s very complex and we want to help you out.
Oh, yeah?
Again, the truth is always simple, and it doesn’t take study or a genius to understand it: France, England, the UK, and the US are out to undermine the authority of the United Nations in order to destroy any vestiges of international law under which we are living. Listen to them, they say this won’t be the last strike; in other words, be afraid, be very afraid of us; step out of line — the line as we see it, mind you — and we’ll attack again. Well, let me ask you, who are they? Really? Who are they, other than the countries who have been at the bottom of all the wars on this planet?
As far as the destruction which Trump and his military group have caused here at home with this response — those Republicans whose eyes have been opened may well begin to vote Democratic, so in the end, we might just as well have voted for Killary. If the Democrats succeed in impeaching Trump, we will get Pence as President, who, I understand, is still a vote for Hillary. I believe this will never stand, but once again, the dark, as our true friend, will force us to awaken and resolve this problem, as well — because the problem is indeed ours, and it is up to us resolve it in the way we see fit.
Once we realize what is really going on and begin to tackle what is facing us, we will have several years of struggle ahead of us, but that struggle will all be towards a positive result: taking back our country and our world. I can just see the level of our human creativity, blocked for so many years, when it is unleashed and begins to create our new world! It takes my breath away 🙂
First, however, we must face the facts and begin to understand the ‘real’ truth 🙂 eh?
Hugs,
“Bow Down” …. to the world´s most destructive or ugliest “couple”:
The well hidden “Jesuitism” (the stronger part in this couple) and the well known Talmudic “Zionism”.
See my extended article on this central subject:
It is a critical analysis of the widely discussed article “It´s Time to Drop the Jew Taboo” of the editor of “Russia Insider”, Charles Bausman:
https://www.facebook.com/hans.gruber.3557/posts/1813350708686460
What has happened with this latest attack on behalf of the Saudi -British White Helmets is pathetic.
The wheels were already coming off from the UK’s CW false flag Skripal farce. If that was not enough the Douma false flag was duly predicted by Russian chief of staff for weeks in advance of the retaking of Ghouta.
Wikileaks had already revealed a few years ago that the Saudis were involved in staging CW false flags through Jaish al Islam which were the last to leave Douma. Now it makes sense that MBS paid a visit to the three amigos or three musketeers before this theatre of the absurd occurred.
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-04-14/wikileaks-secret-cable-overthrow-syrian-regime-play-nice-russia
Now NATO has been exposed for what it is a Terrorist Organization and UK-USA as the Air Force for the terrorists. There is a high level of dysfunctionaly in the internal politics of the two aggressors involved as France seems to have made a decision to bail out and not take active part in the bombing. Germany and Italy were all supportive but put no skin in the bombing raids.
The assessment prior to the kinetic action is that the West sponsored jihadis have been utterly defeated. The West is frustrated because it has no leverage in Syria. The Sunni coalition has no leverage in Syria. Israel has no leverage in Syria. So they had to unmask themselves with a pathetic show of force that actually worked against them in the court of world public opinion.
The attack itself was a PR disaster which is fitting as the cruise missiles proved to be not up to the task. The results can not satisfy Israel. It didn’t satisfy Saudi Arabia. The leader of Jaish al Islam reportedly said that the attack was a farce. The neocon’s and war hawks are not happy with the Pentagon and DOD’s limiting of the attack with the qualifier that it was a one off.
It might be true that the Pentagon didn’t exactly reveal the targets. But i find ientirely possible that Macron revealed the targets to Russia and refrained from a more active role. He did say that he was going to prevent an escalation. So this leaves the perfid Albion ( remember Blair) as the instigator and the USA as the muscle man.
Trump painted himself into a corner and turned the alt right against him. With Ryan not seeking re election reportedly due to Trump fatigue, the mid term elections look in peril for the GOP. The counter trade tariffs by China were designed to hit back hard at Trump’s electoral base. If the GOP looses the mid term elections it is entirely possible that he will be a single term president if not impeached before time.
Trump offered a carrot to Putin to help Russia with their economy. Russia knows the “help” they got in the 90s with neoliberalism. The answer to this offer was swift (pun intended). The largest Oil Corporations in Russia just switched to Russia’s non SWIFT alternative for remittance of payments.
At the same time, China started to run drills in the Taiwan straits. This was China’s way of assisting Russia from the onslaught in the Mediterranean. Britain had to send warships there with the lame excuse of helping to enforce North Korean embargo.
Something else happened that gives teeth to the promise that this attack was going to result in consequences. Russia stationed bombers in Iran. This sends a chill up the spine of the bomb Iran crowd. Moreover, it is highly likely that Russia will reconsider the sale of S300 and S400 to many other countries. This upsets the marching plans of the Antichrist.
Russia is predominantly Christian and stands for the Christians in Syria like Assad does. with Christians and all minorities. Hezbollah does the same in Lebanon although they are Shiites they uphold the rights of all minorities in multi-confessional society.
The West is Antichristian, call it Zionist if you want but it is funded (with the love of $$$$ 666) by the chief headchopper MBS.
Russia is nationalistic but the Antichrist is globalist like Soros.
Russia’s Putin, Lavrov and Nebenzya uphold international law.
The Antichrist doesn’t care about international law. Fvck the EU” Nuland, Fvck the constitution” its a dam piece of Paper” GWB, Fvck the bill of rights, Brennan
The Antichrist wants War and Rumours of War as they are zero sum mentality while the Eurasians want win-win Peace and Security with OBOR.
As you can see there is no compromise possible with these two. Although China is globalists they are also very nationalistic deep inside.
Mod I forgot to add the most important piece
The UK-USA mob wants to hoodwink Russia ( and China) into endorsing their own UNSC Resolution to provide an after the fact legal fig leaf for their illegal attack for the sake of the UNSC unity. This is preposterous. They know they are in the wrong. This is damage control.
Kudos to landlocked aboriginal / indigenous Bolivia for standing up tall and shaming the rest of vassals with a superb display of her moral integrity.
Russia must not agree to provide the Antichrist with a fig leaf after the fact. Remember Niki Haley’s words: “we slap Russia when we want. The USA is locked and loaded.” Remember the abusive slander by Boris Johnson. Do not give in even an inch. It is a trap.
There are lies and the liars that utter them and bring the lies forth into this world to work their evil. Anyone who supports the liars, whether intentionally, by apology or by pretzel logic that the Liar In Chief is actually exposing the culpable or some such, anyone doing so then is building the kind of awaiting karma no one should want to build for themselves or as a population. Denounce the liars in their high offices. We stand either “with ’em or against ’em.”
America/Israel/NATO have been Invading & Regime Changing Oil & Pipeline Countries to Control the World’s Oil Supply Under the Guise of Spreading Democracy since their 911 Coup/War of Terror.
