Putin seems more interested in showing the kegality kf his actions thN winning the war which is the life and death situation for not only syria but Lso Rusdia. Otherwuse anglos supported Isis will be abother chechan terror for rusdia with enckuraged anglos snajes swarming all over.
snajes swarming sounds scary!
dear Aon, fels like aeons, where haff yue been, missing informashon wave tecknowlegably terribly,
will quantum’s leaps make you visible soon?
From this report it seems the Saker is right about slow progress with some reversals. And with so many actors in this drama a mishap could easily occur leading to escalation. In that case Russia is vulnerable with a small force away from home.
I can only draw my inferences from what I read and they are often contradictory.
In the meantime Russia has a second front to deal with: the fifth column bankers allied with the AZ powers. My wish is that Russia take control of its own currency and return to a no-usury policy of long ago.This would create a temporary hardship but in the long run would make Russia strong and truly sovereign.
What to do? I send love and strength to the area. I like Russian philosopher, Irene Caesar’s idea of an information wave technology leading to a quantum leap where ideas become a material force. She says Russia has been working on this for years and is fifteen years ahead of the US.
At the same time I have my own internal war against my inner terrorists.
BTW, I wish SF would not use the term “rebels” and “militants” to identify the terrorists. It’s a language creep from terrorist to moderate terrorists to rebels and freedom fighters. That’s playing into the empire’s hand. This is an information war too and language is important. After all, our strength comes from fighting terrorists and even the US is confined to that language paradigm; let’s not let them wiggle out. I stand to be corrected if I have my facts confused which I sometimes do.
@Dennis Perhaps Saker should clear the air and give the names of the towns lost. I am aware of one hill that was taken by jihadists but not towns or suburbs. On the other hand I have seen the names of towns taken by government forces. I am also aware of heavy terrorist attacks in various places that are repelled with heavy losses to the terrorists.
As you say, the terrorists should be named as such, as al Nusra and other groups in Syria are on the UNSC al Qaeda list of terrorists and any goups that fight along side them are also terrorists.

Good point, dennis and i ´ll further think it over.
It ´s an information war too and their language paradigms are based on
fictions… and on a need to manipulate opinion worldwide.
So Russia´s paradigms must be based on reality -which they have been so far- and language use should conform but with NO deviations back to their
dark tracks.
There was a point in time in the 2nd WW where the soviets had to stick together with all their resources no matter what. Will the empire go so far as to force russians to eventually do the same? suspicious Putin might be led to that.
Fars News is reporting the capture of an Israeli Colonel Leading ISIL Terrorists Captured in Iraq.
“The Zionist officer is ranked colonel and had participated in the Takfiri ISIL group’s terrorist operations,” he added.
Noting that he was arrested along with a number of ISIL terrorists, the commander said, “The Israeli colonel’s name is Yusi Oulen Shahak and is ranked colonel in Golani Brigade of the Zionist regime’s army with the security and military code of Re34356578765az231434.”
‘He said that the relevant bodies are now interrogating the Israeli colonel to understand the reasons behind his fighting alongside the ISIL forces and the presence of other Zionist officers among ISIL terrorists.
‘The Iraqi security forces said the captured colonel has already made shocking confessions.’

Shocking confessions! I wonder if the Iraqis will now hand him over to the Iranians, possibly to be used in exchange for the high-ranking
Iranians missing after the Haj stampede, rumored to have been handed over to the Israelis by the Saudis. I’d say the intelligence-sharing center in Baghdad probably helped nail his location.

‘Asked to comment on the speculations that Roknabadi has been kidnapped in Saudi Arabia and then transferred to Israel, he said, “These are just speculations; yet we cannot totally reject or confirm such claims.”‘
Thanks Steve for these updates – there is so much more going on than meets the eye. The Iranians won’t let the Mina stampede rest when so many of their pilgrims died. The numbers are awful – truly awful. The missing senior Iranians is also a puzzel which will unfold. Yet the Western MSM kept v quiet about this…..though in the ME it is talked about.
In regard to the capture of an Israeli with ISIL – no surprise there – checkout the close links btn the Kurds and Israelis in Iraq.

Sounds as if what Mohamed was hinting at – that Daesh ‘doesn’t exist’ – is coming out into the open.
Meanwhile, as per Katherine’s query re Syria’s airspace violations by the US:
http://sana.sy/en/?p=58236
I have questions too. It was two US fighter jets that bombed the power station in Aleppo. But who is really flying them? And who authorized the deliberate destruction of vital civilian infrastructure – a direct cause of disease and hardship to non-combatants?
The outbreak of cholera in Iraq is now reaching 1800 cases. Another direct consequence of water infrastructure being targeted. Again, who is authorizing these criminal acts?
And does Erdogan think he can stop the spread of the disease with takfiris pouring over the border into Turkey?
What are the Germans going to do?
Have there been cases already from the migration influx? Is there collusion in the EU to cover them up?
Because the attacks on water supply have been consistent. Typhoid next?
The MSM and other media have been invited to Latakia to film.
The French channel just couldn’t help itself and twistthe words oftheservicemenbut also to lie andfilm withouttheirconsent – that’s the level oflow gradejournalism inthe MSM:

Breaking news – Jordan has joined with Russia against IS:
https://www.rt.com/news/319477-russia-jordan-isis-syria/
Yes everything is being sold, the officers sell anything they can to get money to take their families out of the country. That pantsir system we saw pics off in e.ukraine was one of like 60 Iran paid for, 45 or so of them were supposed to be delivered to Syria. I bet there are a lot of other equipment Russia supplied to Syria that ended up in e.ukraine. When people see the higher ups getting suitcases of money to defect, and then run off with the loot, the officer staff who have control of a lot of this stuff do it the hard way, money is not lacking for the terrorists, by now what 20 Billion was supplied by the GCC? That has to go somewhere. It was the same in Iraq.. I don’t like it but I also can not fault the locals for trying to make ends meet. Half the Iraqi army had day jobs. And this was well known.. The top got paid off and when those under them saw the top running off, so did they.. It was the grunts who had no idea and got slaughtered. It is the same in Afghanistan. What is surprising is, Syria did not fall apart like Iraq did in the same situation. Then again Assad was not out bombing his opponents like maliki was.
The news from Deir Ezzor is interesting. Until now the Russian bombings have been rather loosely coordinated with the Syrian army. In this case we see a closer cooperation. Such a closer cooperation is necessary. Compare the general ineffectiveness of the US bombings with their powerful influence when they were closely coordinated with the Kurds in Kobane.
Having just finished watching 32 mins of H. E. V V Putin’s address at Valdai,a follow up clip was this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=GoOQiOP8A2k
In it he states that minutes were kept of the meeting between the top soviet leadership and the other allies,with regard to the re-unification of Germany.
He also states that no formal documents were signed and hinted at German vassalage……….he was almost smiling.
Could be wrong, but I seem to recall having read somewhere the SAA regulars do not receive salaries directly. Instead, their families and relatives get benefits and supports.
At the time I assumed it was due to lack of funds, or a problem with logistics.
It now seems it was also tactical.
