According to Cassad the SAA offensive seems it is going fairly well in Aleppo, but fairly slow in all other areas.
Use google translate if you cannot read Russian.
“Само наступление идет на широком фронте и развивается на данный момент достаточно неплохо. Захваченная рокаднная дорога в районе горы Аззан облегачает развитие операций на этом направлении. Оперативной целью очевидно является город Аль-Хадер.”

thanks Liz, I appreciate your comments.
US again attacked power stations in Aleppo on Sunday.
http://www.almasdarnews.com/article/warplanes-of-us-led-coalition-attack-power-plant-in-aleppo/
The source added that the warplanes attacked the biggest electric power plant that feeds Aleppo city, which resulted in cutting off power from most neighborhoods in Aleppo city.
This transgression comes only 8 days after two F-16 warplanes belonging to the alliance targeted two power plants in al-Radwaniye area east of Aleppo city, cutting off power from the area.
For anyone who wonders why anti-Russian sanctions are working so well, read the following articles explaining how Russia’s finance ministry, central bank, and state-owned banks are openly collaborating with the West.
“Russia Said to Keep Sanctioned Lenders Off Long-Term Dollars”
http://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2015-10-08/bank-of-russia-said-to-keep-sanctioned-lenders-off-long-dollars
(Russia’s finance ministry and central bank cooperated with US sanctions against Russian companies)
“Activists accuse the leadership of Sberbank of an anti-Russian policy.”
http://regnum.ru/news/polit/1993249.html
(Russian activists protested a state-owned bank closing its Crimean branches and recognizing Crimea as part of Ukraine.)
“State Bank is contrary to positions of [President]?”
http://politrussia.com/ekonomika/gosbank-idet-naperekor-725
(While sitting next to Putin at an investment forum, the head of state-owned VTB Bank made it clear he would not follow Putin’s economic recovery policies.)
Wise up, Anonymous! For the Fascist Zionist banking cartel there is no East and no West – it is only them (the Elites) versus us (Humanity).
But you are right, whereas they have managed to enslave all great Western nations – Germany, France, the UK, the USA… – without any noticeable resistance with trickery, bribery, deceit and war, in the East they still have a lot of nefarious work to do.
Thanks for the reminder of where the real action is. I read the English link. The ones in Russian I can’t read but the picture of Putin and the bank president [?] are revealing enough. I think the Russian bombing campaign in Syria is easy compared to what must be done regards the bankers.
The banking business is shrouded in obfuscation so it’s not surprising that I can’t understand it. What I do understand is that usury was condemned for centuries until the modern rot set in. To paraphrase Shakespeare, we are now so steeped in that blood-letting deception that to go back is as tedious as forward.
I doubt if any nation including Russia can get free of that vampire, so addicted are we all to this mega-evil. I do my bit at thelovegovernment.com by advocating not taking interest on money; among other major measures to counter the master evil of patriarchy.
In this context, I found the article by Ghassan Kadi Oct. 17 “The Battle Of And For Idlib” revelant. He says ISIS is everywhere in all institutions and indivduals. Banking the way it is practiced now on the higher levels is one of the biggest terrorist operations, cloaked of course in decency.
For the record while I’m at it, allow me to state the other major evils without the needful qualifications and justifications: drugs, meat-eating, pet-keeping, marriage coupling and interest-taking, surreptitious violent actions one and all. Of course they’re perceived as virtues in our anti-love culture or they wouldn’t have any traction.
I don’t think I have to apologize for an occasional rant since the Saker doesn’t for his. At any rate there is a fail-safe mechanism of moderator management.
I have always believed that “industries” essential to all a nations people should never be permitted to be in the hands of “private” businesses.Railroads,airlines,roads,prisons,banks,health insurance,schools,military,are some of the most glaring examples.I would add that media,while not necessarily having to be in the states hands,certainly needs a strong set of enforced standards that forbid lies,propaganda,and most especially foreign ownership of it.And also private contributions to political candidates.There is a saying that clearly reveals why that should never be permitted,”you use my gold,you do as you are told”. It is the ownership of those elements that I listed, that allow the elite to control and dominate society in any nation.The elite realized that long ago.Which is why they have “privatized” them wherever they can.
Thanks for updating the “golden rule.”
The person in the picture is Andrey Kostin, who is the “President and Chairman of the Management Board of VTB Bank, Member of the [bank’s] Supervisory Council, and Chairman of the Board of Directors of several VTB subsidiaries, including Bank of Moscow and VTB 24.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrey_L._Kostin He also holds myriad positions in other organizations, marking him as one of the Russian ruling class.
What makes Kostin’s attitude particularly galling is that the Russian government owns over sixty percent of the bank’s shares, has repeatedly recapitalized the bank and its subsidiaries, and will likely use the country’s emergency cash reserves to provide it with still more assistance. Given the Russian government’s control of and support for the bank, it has no right to reject Putin’s call that banks support small businesses and other drivers of economic diversification.

Thanks South Front, I’m impressed with the pronunciation of the difficult names…
Its strange how the whole ME is a theater of bombing now…think what it looks like, to the Gods. Humanity gone wild. Hopefully this all ends one day – the sooner the better –
I doubt there’s another way out of this terrorist situation, but the only real benefactors are the military industrial complex…which in Russia, seems to be more benelovent than in USA
2 videos that might interest some people here. …Handy, in case an introduction to this conflict is needed (to share with friends)… and which covers the most important pieces.

This is a bit suspect but note that the Hind’s are dropping flares on the civilian part of town and missiles towards military targets on the river ? bank. Also, no accusations are made of atrocities If the helicopter drops it will be because someone shot it down so blame can be apportioned all around. It is war, not a play date.

Interesting items in the Washington Post this morning about about the Russian air campaign in Syria: none, zero, zilch, nado, nichego. The dog was not barking. The topic seems to have disappeared. No news items of any kind.
.
There was a very short, oblique reference buried in an op ed column by Fred Hyatt, head of the editorial board, the leading neo/lib/con of all, which may explain the current meme: He complains that the Administration thinks the Russian intervention is doomed, so why aid the U.S. allies that the Russians [personified as “Putin”] are pummeling, why worry about it. Let the Russians play out their losing hand.
.
Not sure what it portends. Maybe some of you all do. I’d guess if the Russians are successful the U.S. will take credit, where as if they’re not, the U.S will disparage them. So what’s new ?
US bombs Aleppo power plants multiple times.
Why?
They are about to lose control of Aleppo, thus a huge propaganda get for Russia, Iran and Assad.
They can cause a stampede of refugees who flee the loss of electricity amid the conflict. This would lead to international concern over hundreds of thousands of refugees and it provides cover for the US assets on the ground to escape extermination by Russian air attack as is happening in other areas.
As we know about Russian tactics—no prisoners with combatant terrorists. The US got the one free pass in Debaltcevo. Now Putin doctrine is to kill them in the crapper, wherever.
The US continues to play a very imprudent military and strategic geopolitical game. It will find itself shamed in the UNSC and shamed in public perception that it chose evil over good.
Russia has already changed all perception of the masses in the Middle East. In just two weeks, Russia is on the side of humanity and all religions.
The US has complete ownership of Satanic and depraved terrorism.
Nothing in its nefarious history has Washington to match, not backing insane dictators in Latin America, not its hundreds of secret wars, not even the black prisons, water boarding and disappearances of Reagan, Bush I and II compare to this Obama criminality with AQ and ISIS.
Putin is like St. Putin to the billions of humans threaten by the liver-eaters of ISIS.
Russia is like Michael the Archangel fighting Satan and the minions of Hell.
