[Scott] It’s our editorial position do not post footage depicting of the destruction of the Russian military assets. However, in this case I want to make an exception. On this video we see the moment of a Russian air force helicopter explosion near Al-Huwaysis, Homs desert in Syria on November 3rd.
First, we should acknowledge the rescue helicopter pilot’s actions. He has been taking off when the explosion occurred. He landed right back to pick up people that were left on the ground with a disabled aircraft.
Second, there are more than a few questions about this footage.
Who has deliberately destroyed the Russian helicopter, while its crew was evacuated to safety?
Who could take this footage?
Why aren’t there any usual Arabic chatter on a background?
Why aren’t there any “allahu akbar” chants?
It sounds like people taking this video are afraid to be recognized if they talk. Is it because they are Americans and easily recognizable?
The video is in HD and not taken by phone, but reportedly was damaged during uploading. The Western media calls this video the “ISIS footage,” however its style is strikingly different from those made by the usual suspects.
Every detail is pointing at our “partners” being authors of this footage.
Was it the US SOF operatives that hit the Russian air force helicopter?
My pal Alex says that according to the MOD the helicopter landed due to the technical problems. While on the ground, it was hit by a SPG-9 Kopye (Spear)
a tripod-mounted man-portable, 73 millimetre calibre recoilless gun developed by the Soviet Union.
There were multiple reports published showing that since 2011 the United States, Saudi Arabia and the UAE have bought more than 600 million dollars worth of Soviet-style equipment in Bulgaria for armed groups fighting against the Syrian Arab Republic.

On The News Line – US, Russia on road to final collision
Nov 4, 2016
These are some of the headlines we are tracking for you in this episode of On the News Line:
1. US Russia on a collision course
Tensions between the US and Russia: their relation has hit such a low, that it’s beyond a Cold War. US presidential hopeful Hilary Clinton has pledged to set up a no-fly zone in Syria. The Russian Ministry of Defense has warned that there may be no time for any hot-line discussions with the Americans about stealth aircraft or incoming missiles. No time for talks, meaning anything in the air will be shot down, bringing the two nuclear powered nations ever closer to a confrontation.
2. Lebanon’s new face
The power vacuum in Lebanon has ended with the election of the leader of the Christian Free Patriotic Movement party as president. Michel Aoun secured the votes of 83 out of 127 MPs at parliament, capping a political impasse which dragged on for over two years. Aoun is a strong ally of Lebanon’s resistance movement Hezbollah and his election is seen as a disappointment for Israel and Saudi Arabia, two enemies of what is known as the axis of resistance of which Hezbollah is a main pillar. Aoun was earlier endorsed by leader of the pro-Saudi political party March 14 Saad Hariri.
3. Yemen heading for partition
No end is in sight for the crisis in Yemen : The country’s former president Abd Rabbuh Mansur Hadi has said ‘no’ to a peace proposal put forward by Ismail Ould Cheikh Ahmed, the UN special envoy for Yemen. The details of the plan have not been made public, but according to some sources, it gives Yemen’s Ansarullah movement and its allies a share in the country’s future government. The serious disagreement between forces loyal to Hadi and the Ansarullah movement has sparked fears over Yemen’s possible partition. Two parallel institutions in Sana’a and Aden are in the making which may end up partitioning of the country.
Israel
Israel plans to build new settler units in east al-Quds
Nov 2, 2016 – Israeli authorities say a municipal building-permit sub-committee has approved technical details of plans in the Gilo area. They say more detailed building permits will be required before the settler units are built. The project was first approved in 20-12 and Wednesday’s approvals have been seen as open defiance of international calls to stop settlement expansion on the occupied Palestinian territories. All Israeli settlements are illegal under international law.
Israel destroys Bedouin village for 105th time
Brave people fighting with occupation
Nov 2, 2016 – A Palestinian Bedouin village has been demolished by Israeli forces, and it’s not the first time.
For the 105th time, Araqib village in the Negev desert was destroyed by Israeli bulldozers backed by troops. According to Israeli police, a number of buildings were demolished. Palestinians say Israelis confiscated vehicles and possessions of residents of the village. The first demolition of Araqib took place in 20-10. There are approximately 160 thousand Bedouins residing in the occupied territories. Authorities have repeatedly refused to connect Bedouin villages to the national water and electricity grids. Rights groups claim that the Israeli policy to destroy Bedouin villages is aimed at removing the indigenous Palestinian population to make room for the expansion of Israeli communities.
The Baltics watch
Some background: the Baltic republics lost about 50% of their population and 90% of their industries built by the USSR after they got occupied by the West in the 1990s. Due to the Russia’s countersanctions they have lost about 85% of their trade with Russia and stand to lose the rest in the next two years. Mostly, what’s left it’s income from the use of the Baltic ports for oil and coal transfer. The Baltic republics run by pro-fascist governments and deliberately violate every human right of their ethnic Russian population.

Estonia: 500 Estonian troops trained by US forces in military drills
Estonian and US troops took part in joint military drills near Valga, southern Estonia on November 2nd.
The training was provided to 500 new soldiers who had been serving in the Estonian Army for just one month. Platoon commanders and officers used a variety of weapons from handguns to 120-mm mortars in simulations of up-close fighting scenarios.

History
How Hitler Became Hitler and Why It’s Important Today, by Igor SHUMEYKO
The US deliberately provoked the USSR into cancelling the summit conference in May 1960 in Paris where the USSR offered a peace treaty for a united and neutral Germany, for Germany without NATO and the US occupation.
How the US military industrial complex survived disarmament
In 1959, the Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev called at the United Nations for an end of the arms race and for an end of nuclear testing. The atmosphere was poisoned by radioactive particles. And he offered a peace treaty for a united and neutral Germany. These proposals should be discussed and concluded at a summit conference in May 1960 in Paris by the victorious Allies of War World II. The US government and the “military-industrial complex” were against this offer. An end of the Cold War would have shaken their supremacy. How did they manage to bring about the failure the summit? There is an official version, and a story that is told the first time in this documentary.
According to official history, the Summit in Paris failed because of Krushchev´s anger. Related to the U-2-incident, that spy plane of the CIA. According to the official history, the Soviets alone are responsible for the division of Germany. The official history denies the existence of nuclear tests in Patagonia, invents an „heroic kidnapping“ of a Nazi War Criminal by Israeli agents and describes the earthquake in Chile as a natural event.
A true “intelligence fabric” had been built around the Summit conference by the CIA and the Pentagon, consisting of several provocations: Shortly before the summit, a U-2 spy plane violated Russian airspace – at an altitude that made it impossible for the Soviet air defense not to detect it. While Eisenhower was staying at the disarmament summit, his generals arrived in Argentina with four aircraft carriers – full of nuclear explosives. They wanted to conduct nuclear tests, said the newspaper. These tests however were at that time prohibited by the US-Soviet moratorium and by the US Atomic Energy Law. During the summit, the CIA took Russian hostages.
But the US nuclear tests in Argentina ended in catastrophe. Thousands of people died. They had to cover up everything. But in the archives of the US, Germany, Argentina and even the Catholic Cathedral are still documents that show what really happened.
Brief history of the modern Russian Special Forces Spetsnaz Army FSB ФСБ Centre 2013 Documentary (English Subtitles)
The FSB is mainly responsible for internal security of the Russian state, counterespionage, and the fight against organized crime, terrorism, and drug smuggling. Since 2003, when the Federal Border Guards Service was incorporated to the FSB, it has also been responsible for overseeing border security.[1] The FSB is engaged mostly in domestic affairs, while espionage duties are responsibility of the Russian Foreign Intelligence Service. However, the FSB also includes the FAPSI agency, which conducts electronic surveillance abroad. All law enforcement and intelligence agencies in Russia work under the guidance of FSB, if needed.
The FSB combines functions and powers similar to those exercised by the United States FBI National Security Branch, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), the Federal Protective Service, the National Security Agency (NSA), U.S. Customs and Border Protection, United States Coast Guard, and partly the Drug Enforcement Administration. The FSB employs about 66,200 uniformed staff, including about 4,000 special forces troops. It also employs about 160,000–200,000 border guards

Huzzah…thanks Baz this means I can add some Ukraine Donbass stuff new if there is something suitable…..
Just gonna say…whole lotra stuff on Anna news re Ukraine…..go see.
Oops should have spelt Baaz correctly…..I did post on the last Syrian post that usa and Russia have been firming up arrangements to prevent collision between their respective airforce planes,as reported by Tass today.
Syria and its allies will present to the new US president after January 20th a fait accompli, a Syrian victory over the foreign western backed vermin that have brought suffering and death to the people.
We are in the inflection point between two great cycles of history defining the end of the West’ plowing and plundering the rest of the world for five hundred years. The West will turn inward into its super debt cycle collapse while the East led by Russian and China will lead humanity into the next major cycle of development and growth. As the US is trying to stillbirth the future of humanity it is therefore the enemy of humanity.
The terrible suffering of the Syrian people will be remembered by historians as a heroic stand and defeat of what was up to that time thought to be an unstoppable force: the ‘indispensable and exceptional’ US hegemon. And it will also be an immense psychological defeat. People everywhere will realize that the West can be defeated and will rally their efforts to throw the West off their backs.
Is it not interesting that there is one Empire now, which eerily resembles the Third Reich, picking off sovereign states with contiguous borders one at a time to add to the mass of what become, inevitably, vassal states?
The Aztec Empire fell because its vassal states turned on their masters at the first opportunity.
And the genius of Hernán Cortés lay in listening to and acting on the grievances which subject nations had against the Aztecs. Although self-serving his Letters of Account (Cartas de narración) of the conquest to Charles V were basically corroborated by Bernal Díaz, a foot soldier in the campaign. The dreadful errors of recent US campaigns could have been avoided by reading a little history. When the tipping point against the Empire comes (to use US phraseology) it’s unlikely to be edifying.
I believe that, unfortunately for them, but fortunately for the rest of us, Americans are no longer capable of reading. Those that do, in the State Department for example, are still regaled with the charming but stupid account of travels in Russia by the Marquis de Custine, an early 19th Century fop and aristo. That makes the contemporary US ‘Kremlinologist’.
The luck of Cortes was that he found La Malinche, the Nahuatl princess. Without her, he was dumb and deaf in that land. And no trace of him and his men would have been left to tell the tale of their demise.
A helicoptere was force to land by some mecanic probleme and by coincidence there was a guy with a canon and a camera ready to make a kill.
Comon.
Too many videos. I know it’s hard work, but please write for god’s sake. This ain’t youtube.
Join the discussion
I agree – videos are tedious and time consuming.
They usually have very little real info and yet one has to sit through the whole thing to get the point. If you can’t be bothered to write, don’t post. If all you want is videos go to you tube where there are thousands of them on any subject under the sun.
I noticed a lot of Baltic cannon fodder, I mean boys playing soldier. It’s great that they all bunch up together as it greatly shortens firefights. It helps the OPFOR machine gunner conserve ammunition and preserve barrel life. That’s quite important as those barrels get really hot in prolonged firefights. Standing in open windows looking around the area makes the snipers job so much easier, quicker and enjoyable and helps rack up those kills. Those Baltic states had better have huge personnel reserves and medics / medical facilities. They are going to sorely need them in the event that NATO drags them into war against Russia. Their best strategy is a rapid unconditional surrender.
Thanks Baaz, i know a lot of work goes into these sitreps. They really are informative and worth the effort.
Good post. I enjoy the vids.

Some very wild allegations here.
I was thinking about Scott’s inserted comments here RE the destruction of the MI-35M helicopter, and of his suspicions about who was responsible. We have received word from various sources including NYPD, Wikileaks, FBI and “others” who have revealed that the highest ranking officials in the US Gov’t are deeply immersed and compromised Satanic agents, and involved in a wide array of nefarious, disgusting and destructive and seriously illegal activities and operations. I would like that the whole world will know the scope and scale of the infiltration and compromise of this entity that poses as the official government body. They do NOT represent the American people, and, the American people are finally rising up against them. The people of the United States, and the whole world really, have been under their threat for 100 years or more; this is not something that is a late development. They cannot continue now that they have been exposed, but that doesn’t mean we will be able to defeat them in a day. Desperate and cornered as they are, they have become dangerous, and the people of this planet should understand that they will not stand down, and surrender of their own free will. That is because they actually do not have any free will, as compromised as they are to the “fallen one” and totally immersed in the evil that is his purview. Having said all that, we also have to realize, they are incorrigible liars, they cannot tell us the truth, thus whenever they tell us something we can be certain that the truth will always be something different, if not the opposite of what they say. They must be brought down, must be brought to heel, if the world is interested in its own survival, and this because the survival of our world is not their concern, rather, it is the destruction of this world civilization and culture that they seek. If it was in fact true that there have been US personnel involved in targeting and destroying that Russian helicopter, posing a fatal threat to the pilots and passengers, the truth of the matter will not be obtained from the US co-opted military personnel who are doing the bidding of these minions from hell that now permeate the US military/Industrial/Governmental complex.

“Some people prefer to scatter the ashes of loved ones into the air, but this US artist has come up with a new way to remember your dead relatives – he makes cups, plates, bottles, and mugs from their ashes.
Crowe first started working with human ashes for an art project dubbed Nourish, in which he made a dinner set using the remains of 200 anonymous individuals.
Now the motto of Crowe’s company is “decorate your home with the memory of your loved ones.”
“We help you fold the memory of your loved ones into daily life. Our unique service transforms your loved one’s ashes into remarkable design objects for your home,” the website says. ”

https://southfront.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/kuzznnn.jpg
The Admiral Kuznetsov took in tow and sent to a Greek port. Finished the war, piteous! Will be cut into needles!
While its unknown for certain if there are any problems with the ship or not. The general consensus so far is that the photo is either not showing a tow.Or the photo is faked.
The SMOKY Russian aircraft carrier “Admiral Kuznetsov” was so smoky that during unfavorable winds pilots barely could see the landing deck.
http://www.segodnya.ua/img/article/7667/68_main.1478227890.jpg
There isnt any smoke anymore but she is dead in the middle of the sea.
Photos of the American base storage DigitalGlobe satellite imagery shows that in the Mediterranean sea Russian aircraft carrier “Admiral Kuznetsov” moves with the aid of a military tugboat.
“In the picture with the American satellite clearly shows that the “Admiral Kuznetsov” is no longer smokes as before. However, not floats — at least for myself. Its in the Mediterranean drags on the rope, military tow”, – reported in the publication.
In the description of the satellite photos of the Russian aircraft carrier says that the photo was taken October 28, 2016 at sea near the coast Morocco in the Alborán sea, which is part of the Mediterranean sea and is located just before the Strait of Gibraltar.
Internet users did not miss the opportunity to sneer about the technical condition of the ship and find out what actually happened with the aircraft carrier. According to some media, the picture is a fake.
The Ministry of deffence and Ministry of foreign Affairs the photo has not commented on. But among the Internet community was a lot of wishing to claim that the towing of an aircraft carrier is a disgrace for Russia.
Thanks for that bit of balaganschina from the former The Ukraine.
I guess after two years of eating hot rubber tires, when you are not using them for heat, has addled whatever you use in place of a brain.
Wrong Franz. I live comfortably in USA. So I let the hot rubber tires, and The SMOKY Russian aircraft carrier “Admiral Kuznetsov” for you, while I feel proud with 10 USA Aircraft Carriers with Nuclear Propulsion, not mentioning 9 more with conventional Propulsion, but not Smoky at all.
No Matter. Isn’t it too big for such a small boat to tow? Since it is going to war, and holding jets (even when they are not on board), shouldn’t it has added weight for many reasons?
I wonder how many billions running those 10 nuclear powered carriers and 9 conventional powered. If there is peace, I bet most of those will going to grave yard just like those shine Boeings in the desert at last finial crisis.
I think the neo-con tug boat is pulling the very smoky US carrier toward WWIII. Got to keep the war machine afloat, got to be in power, or all of them will be exiled to a desert graved yard reserved for useless fools, or big house reserved for corrupted criminals. I feel the weight of neo-con tug boat.
The amount of spam about this and the adolescent level of it, shows its another zio-gay psywar creation. Sad to see South front get suckered into this nonsense.
What’s Behind Reports of US Cyberattacks Against Russia Days Before Election
https://sputniknews.com/politics/201611051047100633-us-russia-cyberattack/
“These reports are an irresponsible and dangerous information provocation aimed to distract attention from reputational failures in foreign and domestic policy before the presidential election in the US,” Zheleznyak said in a statement for media.
“Amid the emerging media reports about infiltration of US military hackers in Russian telecommunication and electronic systems as well as in Kremlin command systems, we expect the US authorities, including the White House and the State Department, to make a legal assessment of this information,” Zakharova told journalists.
She added that the absence of official reaction from Washington would mean the “existence of the state cyberterrorism in the United States.”
“There is no doubt that the US administration and intelligence are behind the leak, thus ‘visualizing’ the threats uttered earlier by US Vice President [Joe] Biden to use a cyberweapon against Russia,” Kosachev added.
”Biden’s threats and reports on a US response to ‘Russian hacker attacks’ look like an attempt to politically legitimize a cyberwar against Russia,” Pushkov wrote on Twitter Saturday.”
The israelis use their pindo pets as their disposable hammers in all aspects of their war against Russia. But most americans don’t mind, since their israeli overlords constantly praise then as “exceptional” disposable hammers.
This is there First time I’ve heard about nuclear explosion at Patagonia….
Hard to believe!
No one in South America tell this history….
The detestable “read more”, meaning of course reading a disjointed less, notwithstanding, let’s look at the carrier. I have posted the specifications below from wiki. I suppose people will just skip that. Too much “trouble” to read, naturally.
The ship is powered by steam turbine. Many. These are highly redundant. I am an experienced hand in steam turbine power systems, now retired (along with many steamers!)
It is frankly not a credible claim that the propulsion systems of that ship are inoperative. S Turbines are essentially bullet-proof, especially in ships and especially in old designs.

Curious how this will affect the zpc/nwo planned aggression in the East. Even if her successor is a similar low order quisling, it should cause some disruption in the sod’s strategy. Obviously, should this development progress in a similar manner to what happened in the Philippines, all the better.
