Looks like the T90 is making a huge difference.. This is the most high profile gains yet.. Kuwaires Airbase did not have thousands of terrorists with TOW missiles supported by the US and Turkey.. A huge blow to US supported terrorists. Instead of using guns the terrorists have so many TOW missiles they use them to shoot approaching soldiers on foot. The bull about making a video and showing it hitting a tank to get a replacement and other Obama nonsense..

I saw the pictures when they opened the Black Box. It looked very torn-up in there. So I’m really not surprised that it can’t be read normally. The latest is that they are going to turn it over to a scientific center.And they will try to break it down little bit by little bit to see if they can read it that way. But it will take a while on that.

Oh boy! Didn’t Peter open a can of worms with this one! [Bravo Peter, btw]
This is one of those subjects which hasn’t been properly discussed and it’s been allowed to fester like an infested wound for years and years in the background. There’s so much to say, that even I don’t know where to begin or which one of the many tantalizing lose threads dangling on my face to pull from.
But I do have, like, a million things to say about each one of those threads!
No wonder the guests were all over the place. There’s no PC ready-made script/narrative for this one, is there?
What a shame! /end sarc :/
Welcome to MY world! This is the type of place where it ain’t Kansas anymore…
For the sake of our poor overloaded Mods, I’ll pick just the one thing touched upon in this program.
And once again, Kudos to Peter for bringing this up: he said that there was hardly a couple of paragraphs-worth in a US State Department statement (or whatever other Usian institution/document it was) dedicated to ISIS and sex slavery.
The irony of it all is that; and although Peter did his best to bring it up, the guests dedicated a grant total of a few seconds – if that – to the subject, while ample time was focused on the persecution of Christians (and other non-Islamic faiths) in the middle east and even the west…
…then it went into a tormented argument about democracy as a “new religion” vs. a “spiritual war” vs. secularism vs. dog knows what else!
Nice way to sweep sexual abuse/exploitation under the carpet, uh!?
And then some men [Christian, Muslim or what have you] have the nerve to complain about “invisibility.”
How about the invisibility of women?!?! And the horrors men [whether of faith or not] subject them to?
Not worth a second thought apparently… not even on this show.
But I will repeat it again; kudos to Peter for at least trying to bring it up. You know how the saying goes: “you can lead a horse to water…”

Yazidi woman held as sex slave for three months breaks down during speech at UN as she begs world leaders to wipe out the Islamist group
“[..] The 21-year-old described the persecution the Yazidi people face under ISIS, which trades women and children from the minority population as ‘war booty’.
‘Rape was used to destroy women and girls and to guarantee that these women could never lead a normal life again,’ she said, visibly shaking with the effort of recounting her story.”
Oh! And btw: Yazidi women and children are NOT the only victims these ISIS knuckledraggers target in their depraved misogynistic war against women, ask the Kurdish women, the Christian women [living either on Syria or Sweden], the Shi’ite women, the Sunni women, or ask the wahhabi female sympathizes who just happen to be deemed not “Muslim enough” according to these caliphate lunatics…
…and the list goes on and on…
That woman on Crosstalk, Iben Thranholm, is just ridiculous. I’ve need fed up with that ‘war on Christianity’ and ‘non-Christians have no moral base’ nonsense for many years now from the ‘religious right’ (who are neither religious nor right), and it’s that sort of offensive drivel and her style of declaring war on everyone else that fuels much of the anti-Christian feeling in the US.
Bashar al Assad is Protecting Christians in Syria: According to Obama, The Secular Government “Which Guarantees Religious Freedom Has to Go”
ISIS, Assad, and What the West is Missing About Syria
By Alessandra Nucci
Global Research, December 21, 2015
Catholic World Report 15 December 2014
Region: Middle East & North Africa
In-depth Report: SYRIA: NATO’S NEXT WAR?
Syria
GR Editor’s Note
This incisive article by Catholic World Report confirms that the government of Bashar al Assad by combating the ISIS/Al Nusrah terrorists is committed to protecting Syria’s Christian community. It also reveals the unspoken truth: the Obama administration by bombing Syria is supporting the Islamic insurgency.
Even the mainstream media (Daily Telegraph, quoted by Catholic Reporter below) has acknowledged that:
“We should not be blind to the fact that there is a project out there to destroy [Syria’s] rich, pluralist, and unbelievably intricate culture and replace it with a monochrome version of Wahhabi Islam”.
What the Telegraph article fails to mention is that the “version of Wahhabism” has nothing to with Islam, it’s made in America, its a diabolical tool of US foreign policy. Wahhabi Islam is being used by Washington in liaison with America’s indefectible allies including Turkey and Saudi Arabia to wage an undeclared war on Syria.
[…]
The same thing happened during the Yugoslav war, women held as slaves and raped until they were totally traumatized and mentally/spiritually vacant/destroyed. I once knew a woman who, as German girl after WWII was held in cage, she said she’d been raped 15 times by American soldiers. So much for defending human rights.
Flynn’s participation in the RT anniversary celebration raises questions about what the DIA and other U.S. intelligence agencies know, or think they know, about the Russian role in global conflict and RT’s role in propaganda and disinformation.
Lieutenant General Michael Flynn, director of the DIA between 2012 and 2014, confirmed that his agency had sent a constant stream of classified warnings to the civilian leadership about the dire consequences of toppling Assad. The jihadists, he said, were in control of the opposition. Turkey wasn’t doing enough to stop the smuggling of foreign fighters and weapons across the border. ‘If the American public saw the intelligence we were producing daily, at the most sensitive level, they would go ballistic,’ Flynn told me. ‘We understood Isis’s long-term strategy and its campaign plans, and we also discussed the fact that Turkey was looking the other way when it came to the growth of the Islamic State inside Syria.’ The DIA’s reporting, he said, ‘got enormous pushback’ from the Obama administration. ‘I felt that they did not want to hear the truth.’
Your second link is very long, but well worth it. Originally I had thought that Obozo is not a real neocon, but just of useful idiot used by them. But if the post is to be believed, Obozo is a real neocon! Either way, any one who still harbors any sympathies for Obozo should read that article!
” Military to Military: US intelligence sharing in the Syrian war – Seymour M. Hersh in LRB, December 20, 2015 ”
Hersh the Gentleman is probably older than Henry Kissinger, George Soros and Zbig Brzezinski taken together.
Whenever things are desperate for the controllers, the CIA electro-shocks him out of suspended animation and sets him to task.
What task? To hammer the message “The CIA is your sugar-daddy and the US goverment will save your ass” in as many paragraphs as possible – but without mentioning ‘CIA’ and ‘ass’ – into as many heads as possible.
Hersh never fails. Not so long ago, he expounded to the world the arcane logistics that were involved in Bin-Laden’s really real assassination. A fascinating tale! It moved half the congreation to tears.
And now, just in time for the Holiday season, Hersh’s latest revelations, the truly true truth about ISIS, pure evilness, Daesh, Syria, and the coming Messiah! With 333 foot notes. Hallelujah!
I guess its important for Russia to continue to arm herself to the teeth..just to protect herself…but that glorious day, when the USA is ‘no more’ is coming closer by all this preparation. In two thousand years, Russia will be the home of the golden age. I can hardly wait. Maybe one more lifetime between now and then…
if anyone has a link with english subtitles that is in the news last coupla days, to that new “world view’ documentary by Vlad Solyevich??? which includes an interview with VP, I would be most grateful cheers
“Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hong Lei said that China in the near future to invite representatives of the Syrian government and the opposition for talks and to facilitate a political settlement of the crisis. ”

The Russian military says aviation experts have so far failed to retrieve information from a flight data recorder from a Russian warplane downed by Turkey last month.
Turkey shot down the Russian Su-24 bomber at the border with Syria on Nov. 24, saying it violated its airspace for 17 seconds despite repeated warnings. Russia insists the plane never entered Turkish airspace and posed no threat to Turkey.
“Retrieving the information and a read out of flight data … has proven to be impossible because of internal damage,” said Sergei Bainetov, the Russian Air Force’s deputy head of flight safety.
