South Front: excellent neutral toned commentary on the Kurdish question amidst the anti-Isis coalition effort. Seems the Turks are playing a double game but more will be revealed because it seems not all Kurds are alike in this political stew pot.
Teranam I don’t fully understand these two horrible conflicts…the Houthis and the Kurds seem similar somehow…both fighting ISIL and getting bombed for it, by the big rich countries.
And Turkey…Ergodan…how does he stay in power in Turkey ? I seem to remember a few years ago when he quelled an uprising with force….
Horrible facts that Penelope had on a different thread…Ergodan’s adult children are actively helping ISIL.
Don’t look now, but another nation in the Middle East is falling to pieces.
This time it’s Yemen, which was already the poorest nation in the region when a civil war broke out early this year. Things have only gotten worse since Saudi Arabia intervened with major military force.
It’s a humanitarian disaster. But it also illustrates the increasingly obvious downsides to America’s close relationship with Saudi Arabia. By not pushing the Saudis to back off, or even speaking out on their mistake, America is setting the stage for future disasters.

Very well done South Front.
This is a really bad kettle of fish – with more players being apparently added daily. You’ve done a great job of making some kind of sense of it.
well, there is a saying: You break it, you own it! I guess we own Iraq now….God help us and them. We do a good job taking countries apart, but we don’t have a clue how to put them together again.
There is no intention of putting any of these targeted countries back together again. They are not markets of ours. They merely are in the way of oil and gas pipelines we intend to control.
Making vast wastelands is big business.
Just one thing – it is Tikrit – not Tirkit.
Saddam’s birthplace.
The Turks are playing a double game here for their zionazi masters. Simultaneously supporting and pretending to attack the cannibal terrorists the Israeli-Americans have deployed (ISIL et al), while taking the opportunity to attack the Kurds for both Turkish gain and to weaken Kurd resistance to the cannibal terrorists, especially in Syria.
Something similar in Ukraine, I recall, with soldiers dressed at some kind of troops fighting for the Kiev or right sector side. The empire does this stuff regularly.

British SAS Special Forces “Dressed Up as ISIS Rebels” Fighting Assad in Syria
By Stephen Lendman
August 05, 2015 “Information Clearing House” – On August 2, Britain’s Sunday Express newspaper headlined “SAS dress as ISIS fighters in undercover war on jihadis,” saying:
“More than 120 members belonging to the elite regiment are currently in the war-torn country” covertly “dressed in black and flying ISIS flags,” engaged in what’s called Operation Shader – attacking Syrian targets on the pretext of combatting ISIS.
Maybe covert US special forces and CIA elements are involved the same way. During Obama’s war on Libya, Britain deployed hundreds of Special Forces Support Group (SFSG) paratroopers – drawn from SAS (Special Air Service) and SBS (Special Boat Service) personnel.
Around 800 Royal Marines and 4,000 US counterparts were on standby to intervene on short notice if ordered.
The latest revelation comes two weeks after learning Prime Minister David Cameron last year approved British warplanes joining US ones in bombing Syria despite parliamentary rejection in August 2013.

“Yes, a “comprehensive fight against Daesh,” carried out by a coalition that just happens to be made up of the US, Turkey, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar. Put another way, in the name of eradicating ISIS, the US, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Turkey, and Qatar are about to invade Syria, an outcome which was of course inevitable from the start. ”

Evil Empire’s recent scores with Russia: 1. New sanction, 2. Military support for antiAssad Syrian terrorists. That’s speaking might. Now Vlads turn. How’d he responce. Tag his tail under or show Barky his middle finger. We’ll see. Pravda writes about secret negotiations to settle Ukos in exchange for dumping probably President Assad. That Russian support hasn’t been so pronunced.
Same as with Iran in the past.
Alex recently finished an internship at the Lowy Institute. Iraq — ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has ordered the group’s execution videos reflect a kindler, gentler jihad that will appeal to the whole family, sources say.
