The big push for the Hegemon wil be to gain and hold Raqqa and to use the Kurds and newly rebranded “moderates” as cover. meanwhile Hollande has declared martial law basically for 3 months. A French friend of mine says that the French always let this happen and then “when things are sorted out, we re establish democracy”. OK. my American mentality is to fall back on the 2nd amendment rather than trust in a vague hope and trust in the future.
The French are used to retreating and then celebrating the end of the war fought by others and freeing them from their foolishness.
Dropping some bombs is not fighting a war. Embracing your enemy and hoping he won’t cut your throat is delusion.
Open borders is nirvana. The beasts of the wild are inside their house and gardens.
The Elites are safe. The citizens of the world are unguarded sheep helpless against the hordes.
Now, the word is Russia is the key to winning. Americans are preparing to work with the Russians. Hollande wants a coordination with the Russians.
It’s an old story, rewritten in fresh blood. The West needs Russians to save their bacon.
Putin should demand, require the immediate lifting of sanctions. And the disarmament of Kiev’s putative military. A neutralized Ukraine should be the price for Russian efforts to save the West from itself.
Red Ryder quote: “Putin should demand, require the immediate lifting of sanctions. And the disarmament of Kiev’s putative military. A neutralized Ukraine should be the price for Russian efforts to save the West from itself.”
1. Putin has already been given Crimea on a Silver Platter.
2. Ukraine is already Federalized according to Putin’s wishes.
3. Put is going to be all over The Middle East. He is in Syria now, pretty soon he will be in Lebanon, Iraq, Egypt, Libya, Yemen ……. sharing the resources.
4. And, selling arms to both The Middle East and Iran. He has already started to sell arms to Syria, Iran, Egypt, Iraq and so on…..
5. The King of Saudi Arabia will be visiting Putin at the end of this month.
6. Putin then within one month will visit Iran after a very long time, after 2007.
1. I am aware of Crimea history, therefore it doesn’t belong to Russia anymore. Like I said it was given to Putin on a Silver Platter.
2. Due to Israel and AIPAC, no one was allowed to sell their best military hardware to Iran, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Libya….. And, this included Russia too, irregardless of Russian technology. Russia was simply not allowed.
3. Russia is a regional power, no longer it is Super Power like USSR. However, Obama is allowing Russia and Putin to get bigger, maybe a Super Power again. Maybe!
4. It is news to me that the King of Saudi Arabia is in hospital. The last I read about him in Arabic language that he is due soon to visit Putin in Moscow.
5. I have no objection Putin going anywhere nor visiting anyone. However, his visit to Iran is after the King of Saudi Arabia visiting him. I was simply putting 2+2 together.
No it wasn’t handed to the Russians on a “Silver Platter”.
Though the Russians were a few steps ahead of NATO and had a sizable military presence in Crimea which helped considerably.
You do realise that the US had all intentions of taking over Sevastopol right? Not like the Construction Tenders at the DOD was not a give away and also mystery flights emanating from Turkey during the Maidan.
Irony being that 80% of the Ukrainian Forces stationed there happily merged with the RF Forces given the opportunity and only those that had family in Ukraine transferred back there. Given the situation and the plays the US/NATO made, it was definitely not a hand over but more so that the RF was a few steps ahead and given the resounding majority of Crimeans in favor of returning to the RF, which they had been trying for the previous 2 decades, the RF prevailed.
Now we have instead of Sevastopol, Odessa being set up as NATO’s Black Sea base of operations but again, things are not going smoothly there either.
hi, teranam.!
Tell please, yur french friends and way more of their connections not to lose any time now. And rebuff Obama at once on his speech.
The French should go to the streets with banners written like:
No! It´s one “value” in your northern border
and another in your south border? No, thanks!
As usual, those are “moderate” becuase the US says so !
that’s how it is. If Assad drops bombs, it’s always against innocent civilians, if US drops bombs, it’s always to “protect innocent civilians”. They believe in their own BS because “we are an empire now, we can create our own reality” – this is what they truly believe, believe it or not.
I live in desert and the Oil is carried from Oil Fields to Sea Terminals to be loaded onto ships in 2 ways.
1. Pipelines to which all Oil Fields are connected, carrying The Oil all the way to Sea Terminals.
2. Conney of heavy vehicle trucks loading from Oil Fields to carry The Oil on highways all the way to Sea Terminals. Very, very expansive method, requires heavy maintenance on trucks and owing lots of lots of heavy truck.
One has to own or have uninterrupted access from Oil Fields to Sea Terminals to be loaded onto the Ships. Now here is the kicker, does our ISIS (goddess) which is a figment of imagination has access to all the above. Here is the list again:
1. Oil Fields
2. Sea Terminal
3. Uninterrupted pipeline from Oil Fields to Sea Terminals.
4. Uninterrupted access to highways connecting these Oil Fields to Sea Terminal and bunch of heavy vehicle with maintenance capabilities.
Guess what The Empire has done today?
“Intensifying pressure on the Islamic State, United States warplanes for the first time attacked hundreds of trucks on Monday that the extremist group has been using to smuggle the crude oil it has been producing in Syria, American officials said.”
Mohamed, the picture of the table layout indicates that the three at the table array with Turkey to the left as we look at them, Russia to the right and Kerry in the middle. A troika?
The US is caught in the middle and is not driving the diplomacy. Lavrov laid down the agenda and the others have signed on, despite the group that wants Assad out.
The UN will be involved, groups will be vetted, elections will be held, a transition government will be created, Assad will stay for as long as the people want him. These are Russian conditions.
So, the US may seem to be directing the show, but they are the hood ornament on the Russian vehicle, as they were for the Chemical Weapons initiative and Minsk 2 (where Porcoshenko is the hood ornament).
Diplomacy is the Russian and Chinese imperative. War and chaos is the US process of choice.
Be well, my friend. I enjoy your sharp eye and mind.
Thanks for your kind words and I always reed your post with pleasure too.
Regarding the tables, I have seen other pictures of it. The Head Table seats 3 persons, but both the side tables on each side are very, very long, due to number of attendees.
I predicted on this site that Assad is here to stay, when Hezbollah joined the fight with Syria.
I am right now watching CNN, and they are tying the last 3 terrorists attacks togather, the Russian airline in Egypt, the bombing in South Lebanon (Hezbollah area) and now Paris. It is the first time other lives matter, the lives of Arabs and Russian matter too.
Obama has brought Russia to the gates of IsraHeel with best of Russian Military Hardware. The bear is old, wise and very prudent. The bear had past experience with Afghanistan. So this time the bear must had guarantees from bald eagle before they put boots in Syria.
I have been on this site for the last 2 years and my views are well known on this site. I predicted 2 years ago on this site that both Obama and Putin are working together. That both AIPAC and Netanyahu will become history.
Also, I have been saying for about last 2 years that ISIS (goddess) is a figment of imagination.
yes, mohamed.
Your prediction capabilities failed totell us in what, precisely on which item Obomba and Putin are working together.
in general policy?
in dominating Syria?
in pouring down weapons to the IS
In their vivid will to build up a pipeline of their own(each one´s) thru to theMediterranean?
Have both of them forgotten to tell their whole domestic press&media to conciliate with each other, since they in factwork together?
give us your lights, please on what prophecies have turned
Why don’t you use the search facilities on this and old blog. BTW, your questions are small and insignificant. Think in bigger terms, in terms of IsraHell.
No American President is strong enough to take on IsraHell lobby AIPAC, including Obama. So, Obama recruited the help of both Putin and USA Congress to make both AIPAC and Netanyahu history.
It seems fairly relevant to assume that a position at the table has presence over the other seats. We could test this hypothesis by looking at past examples.
“Carry fire in one hand and water in the other.” -Russian proverb
I have a love-hate relationship to war. I support the war by following it here and donating to SF. I guess that’s the meaning of carrying fire in one hand.
But I also carry as much water as I can. I’m not a pacifist but I am a peace-maker, at least within myself. It’s not a comfortable position but it seems the only way to go for now.
As I look back on my life from the vantage of 75 years I can see that I was doing violent, war-like actions that the society says are not violent at all but peaceful and necessary. I now see that those are self-serving lies.
I resolve to love with all my heart even in the black heart of war. It’s a dangerous high-wire to walk. For example, if I were a soldier on the south front and I witnessed my commander killing civilians contrary to international law, would I report him and risk my own life? I don’t know. From my past in other situations I’d probably not say anything. But maybe some miracle of courage would enable me to do the right thing.
Traditionally, like what the Song of Songs portrays, vineyards are peaceful places where ancient love rites took place. That’s how I view this vineyard, an oasis of water nourished love surrounded by the fires of war.
For me this is more than a romantic notion but the very core of what is required to throw water on the war dance. I don’t feel very well at the moment, partly because of the exposure to the second-hand smoke of war stories and partly because I’m just plain stupid.
Lately, I’ve been reading and listening to Count Tolstoy. He was a war hero at Sevastopol in the Crimean war early in life. Later he became a pacifist based on the teachings of Christ, or so he believed. He was a brilliant and courageous person but his premises were stupid and so he ended up badly.
He was 82 when he died at a railroad station “with no direction home.” I’ve got seven more years to match his lifespan. I hope I don’t end up at some outpost in the dead of winter, estranged from my family. The authorities wouldn’t even let his wife see him. If I have the strength I’ll die in a vineyard surrounded by lovers.
I suppose when my time comes, the killers will still be doing their thing but if I play my cards right, in my mind and heart I’ll enjoy vineyard delights no matter what condition my body is in.
I appreciate being able to express like this although many might think it OT and inappropriate for the conversation here.
William James said “The horror is the thrill.” I prefer the thrill of love, even if it’s just the idea of it. War is a mirage in the desert; love is a miracle in the vineyard.
Generals gathered in their masses,
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerer of death’s construction.
In the fields the bodies burning,
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind,
poisoning their brainwashed minds…Oh lord yeah!
……………………………………………………………
Now in darkness, world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more war pigs have the power,
hand of god has struck the hour.
Day of judgement, god is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling.
Begging mercy for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings…Oh lord, yeah!
Yes, I have but fragging is not something I could do in my present state of mind. Perhaps if I was a young conscript and was in a group that felt it was the only just choice, I might but that’s just conjecture. War is such a twisted beast that I don’t know what it might do to my mind.
On fleek- this response is as real as it gets. The conversation on this site is 100% raw contact with reality on a level of specificity uninhabited by most. It’s one thing to read, but it takes much more to write something like what you wrote here. I have to join this conversation now, the magic is cast.
President Vladimir Putin says he’s shared Russian intelligence data on Islamic State financing with his G20 colleagues: the terrorists appear to be financed from 40 countries, including some G20 member states.
Trends
Islamic State, Russian anti-terror op in Syria
During the summit, “I provided examples based on our data on the financing of different Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) units by private individuals. This money, as we have established, comes from 40 countries and, there are some of the G20 members among them,” Putin told the journalists.”
and
Putin pointed out the change in Washington’s stance on cooperation with Moscow in the fight against the terrorists.
“We need to organize work specifically concentrated on the prevention of terrorist attacks and tackling terrorism on a global scale. We offered to cooperate [with the US] in anti-IS efforts. Unfortunately, our American partners refused. They just sent a written note and it says: ‘we reject your offer’,” Putin said.
“But life is always evolving and at a very fast pace, often teaching us lessons. And I think that now the realization that an effective fight [against terror] can only be staged together is coming to everybody,” the Russian leader said.
and
“It’s really difficult to criticize us,” he said, adding that Russia has repeatedly asked its foreign partners to provide data on terrorist targets in Syria.
“They’re afraid to inform us on the territories which we shouldn’t strike, fearing that it is precisely where we’ll strike; that we are going to cheat everybody,” the president said.
“Apparently, their opinion of us is based on their own concept of human decency,” he added.”
extract
“The United States use Ukrainian nationalists in the fight against Russia. For me, Ukrainian nationalists coming to power is only possible in western Ukraine – should they fall into the process of becoming autonomous or completely exit from Ukraine, and I am afraid that this process of pushing out western Ukraine will continue. The area around the Ukrainian-Polish border may then become territory where various terrorist groups will penetrate. Assassinations could take place. In the event of any action by oligarchs against nationalists, armed groups in the framework of escape can penetrate frontier areas in order to hide. Here you can list an entire catalog of threats to national security. We will have to deal with the development in western Ukraine of a situation we had in Northern Ireland. So that means a creeping conflict which is very real and this conflict could spread to the entire border area.’
——————————————————–
“President Vladimir Putin says he’s shared Russian intelligence data on Islamic State financing with his G20 colleagues: the terrorists appear to be financed from 40 countries, including some G20 member states.”
This is very big. Prediction: NATO media won’t report it.
Putin also spoke of the urgent need to curb the illegal oil trade by IS.
“I’ve shown our colleagues photos taken from space and from aircraft which clearly demonstrate the scale of the illegal trade in oil and petroleum products,” he said.
“The motorcade of refueling vehicles stretched for dozens of kilometers, so that from a height of 4,000 to 5,000 meters they stretch beyond the horizon,” Putin added, comparing the convoy to gas and oil pipeline systems.
Let’s see, one buzz job to allow the drivers the choice of departure or frying, then one thermobaric at each end and one in the middle for good measure. Dreadful environmental mess of course, but the message would get through.
The unprecedented wave of attacks that struck Paris last night, and which left, on first accounting, at least 127 dead, is the direct consequence of the foreign policy conducted by France in Syria, a policy less concerned over the salafist terrorism than it is about the destruction of the country and the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad.
If several authors of the carnage in the Bataclan concert hall were saying, according to witnesses: “It’s Holland’s fault , it is the fault of your President, he did not have to intervene in Syria,” we must consider what was the reality of French politicy in this country since the conflict began in 2011.
The French Republic, as president François Hollande revealed in the interview with journalist Xavier Panon, has been supplying weapons to the Syrian rebels since 2012. Through channels of the DGSE, 20mm cannons, machine guns, rocket launchers, and anti-tank missiles were delivered to the “moderate” rebels, in violation of the arms embargo put in place by the European Union in the summer of 2011.
An advisor in the Elysée recalled, according to Panon:
“Yes indeed, we are furnishing what they need, but within the limits of our means and in accordance with our evaluation of the situation. Under cover, you can’t act except on a small scale, with limited means, limited objectives.”
France has also put special forces on the ground aimed at the training and operational support of the combattants.
In March 2012, 13 French officers got captured by the Syrian Army when the Islamic Caliphate was relaunched in the Baba Amr quarter at Homs by the Al-Farsouq brigade and the Al-Waleed brigade, which would soon leave the FSA to join ranks with the Islamic State.
President Hollande, quoted in Le Monde confided in August 2014:
“We can’t let up on our support that we have been granting these rebels who are the only ones sharing the democratic spirit.”
Since the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad has declared more than once, that there aren’t any “moderate” rebels, one might inquire as to the actual nature of the rebel groups sustained and armed by the French state since 2012.
The Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius declared on this subject that the Al-Nosra front (Syrian branch of Al-Qaida), “was doing a good job.” On the other hand, Syrian relatives of people killed by Syrian rebels entered suit at the tribunal of Paris against Fabius, seeking symbolic reparations for the “personal failings committed by the minister of foreign affairs Laurent Fabius”
And the US Defense Intelligence Agency in a 2012 report had already determined that the help for “moderate” rebels actually benefitted the Islamic State: According to the former agency director, General Flynn, the indirect help of the US and the western coalition to the Islamic State was “an intentional decision.” In an earlier article on the troubled role of the western coalition in Iraq and Syria, I laid out the factually different elements that demonstrated the support and operational cooperation of Turkey, the US, and Israel with different jihadist groups [Western sponsors of the Islamic State].
These different elements show clearly enough that the western coalition, France included, has conducted a policy of support for various jihadist groups in their goal of overturning president Bashar al-Assad, under the pretense of that fiction of bringing help to the mythical “moderate” rebels.
The recent Russian intervention put a spotlight on the true nature of the pretend rebel groups when it brought about a chain of complaints and protestations from the western capitals that the strikes were hurting rebels supported by the West [(!) — Tr.] However, the groups hit by Russian aircraft belong to the Army of Conquest — a collection including the Al-Nosra Front (Syrian branch of Al Qaeda) and such Islamist groups as Ahrar al-Sham.
Unfortunately, it is unlikely that the support of the French executive to jihadist groups in Syria will get exposed in the light of this unprecedented wave of attacks, which nevertheless constitutes its logical and predictable conclusion. The chaos Syria has been reduced to, and the proliferation of jihadist groups are indeed the direct result of the French foreign policy in the Middle East.
Whereas when the earlier attacks in January the executive posited the internet as favoring “autoradicalization” of terrorists, and presented them in falsifying fashion as “lone wolves,” scapegoats for the lapses and incompetence of French Intel and Security services, and introduced devises for mass surveillance of citizens, this policy was mainly aimed at individual freedoms, and has shown its futility today. It is however unlikely that the heads of security services, including the interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve – who have failed yet again – will be held accountable.
The government and the political class are hiding once again behind emotion and an insistence on “national unity.” For all that, the some ones who today declare a state of emergency and the reestablishment of control of the borders were barely just a few weeks back committing our participation in the welcoming of Syrian immigrants, in the name of humanitarian principles, and this despite the reservations of EUROJUST [agency for European judicial coordination], which affirmed that the influx included close connections with terror organizations in Syria.
“It is an alarming situation because we see plainly that the smuggling is destined to finance terrorism and that the migration is often being used for the infiltration of members of the Islamic State.”
If, as president François Hollande says, France is “at war” today, then France essentially owes it to the incompetences of the executive and to the criminal incoherence of French foreign policy that has sustained and armed the jihadists who are plunging Syria into chaos …

Muslim public affairs video from July might be worth putting on watch list/
bankers control politicians, creating wars, Obama Cameron are puppet war criminals of this system and are war criminals…………………..greater Israel project to destroy any arabic country that is not a subjugate of USA cannot be tolerated…Saudi worst supporting terrorist country……………….USA arms al -nusrah, al queada, syrian rebels using sarin gas, Obama should be convicted of supporting a terrorist organisation…………..USA arming psychopaths……….etc
This was posted by Pepe Escobar on his facebook page. Reproduced in whole for those who don’t have a facebook account. Link for those who do.
He refers to the 3 types of teams. The final one is the most interesting for those looking for professional involvement.
THE EXPENDABLES
There were glaring differences between the three teams at the Paris carnage.
The Stade de France team featured absolute patsies trying to enter a football match in a heavily policed stadium wearing a suicide vest. Expendable “martyrs” – “Syrian passport” and all.
The Bataclan team featured calm, relatively proficient shooters, but still martyrs. They knew a hostage situation, in France, could only finish with their “martyrdom”. Less expendable, but still expendable.
The heart of the matter is the drive-by team. Or “teams”. Notice corporate media is absolute mum on them, because the investigation itself seems to be clueless.
The killers at La Belle Équipe arrived on a black Mercedes, according to witnesses. There is NO mention of this Mercedes anywhere. The killers were ultra-pro, muscular, methodical, and WHITE. NO ONE is talking about them.
These are the NON-EXPENDABLES. The high-priced mercenaries. While all the media circus spreads from Grenoble and Toulouse to Brussels and even Raqqa, they have simply vanished without a trace.
Who are they? And who hired them? Certainly not social network jihadi al-Baljiki.
Anybody who remembers George Bushs post 9/11 speech and his “they hate us for our freedoms” and “we are at war” cannot help but get a weird feeling of dejavu listening to Hollande over the past few days. We all know that 9/11 unleashed the greatest rampage and blood lust of the neo cons across a wide swathe of this planet the world has ever seen and I fear we are about to witbess part two of the play. From the Guardian today :
“French president calls for coalition to ‘fight terrorist army’ and dispatches aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle to eastern Mediterranean.
Addressing both houses of parliament at the Palace of Versailles on Monday, the French president said the country was engaged in “a war against jihadi terrorism”. The sponsors of the carnage in the capital “must know that their crimes further strengthen the determination of France to fight them and to destroy them”, he said.
“More strikes are needed, and we will carry them out,” Hollande added. “More support for all fighting against Isis is needed, and France will provide it. But we need a union of all who can fight this terrorist army in a single coalition.”
Havent we been here before ? I cant say I know how this is all going to play out but a leopard doesn’t change its spots and I simply cant help thinking this is all somehow going to morph into an all out invasion of Syria to finally carry out their regime change which they seem to be fanatically obsessed over. Although they are all making the right noises at the moment about “co-ordinating” with Russia, etc. I will not trust them as far as I can throw them and none of them as of yet has so much as even tentatively suggested co-ordinating efforts with the Syrian army who are the ones actually fighting ISIS on the ground, unless and until they do this everything is just window dressing.
The sheeple of Europe are once again being led to the slaughter by their “elected representatives”.
The article further goes on to state :
“Announcing an extension of France’s national state of emergency to three months, Hollande also called for constitutional reforms to allow the state to better counter the new terrorist menace”.
French law must allow dual nationals to be stripped of their citizenship if they were convicted of terrorism, and banned from entering France if they presented a terrorism risk, he said.
He said 5,000 more police officers – mainly anti-terrorist and border forces – would be hired, and that no further cuts would be made to military personnel until at least 2019″.
Welcome to fortress Europe, or should I say Animal Farm.

Terror in Paris: The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL), European Politics, and the International Context
Eric Draitser of StopImperialism.org appears on CPR Sunday (November 15, 2015) with security analyst Mark Sleboda and journalist/broadcaster Don DeBar. Eric, Mark and Don discuss the tragic events in Paris on Nov. 13, and the fallout from that. They examine the narrative of the attack, the objectives of the Islamic State (which has claimed responsibility), and the importance of asking the right questions about what happened. Additionally, Eric, Mark, and Don touch on the significance of the attacks for French politics and the European continent generally, as well as how this will be used to justify an expansion of the war on Syria and the regional conflict more broadly.
First a moment of silence for the brave SAA soldiers who were killed in the last month, many of whom used to post information on the front whose loss would mean a lot less information for us to learn of the conditions and reality on the ground. HUGE sale on FSA flags in Syria.. China shipped containers full of new FSA flags.. FSA growing like wild fire.. FSA offensives a lot more effective than SAA even though it was started by 4 or 5 people.. Now FSA holds huge areas in Syria..
#Syria #DeirEzZor Reports that In more than one area in Eastern Deir Ez Zor someones been raising #FSA Flag’s.

A truce has been declared between Kurds & Shia Militias in Tuz Khurmato, after officials met. Though situation is tense & skirmishes occur.
Military says those 4-5 US trained Syrian rebels have grown to 145. 100 inside Syria.
Groups waving the FSA flag will exist in NE Syria under Kurdish/US protection, but won’t fight Assad & won’t be attacked by Assad either.

#Putin | #ISIS is funded by 40 different countries some of which are in the #G20
Putin transformed from outcast to problem solver at G20 #Turkey:’EVERYBODY came to him for answers’
“I can tell you a secret: I did this [leaving the G20 early last year] for technical reasons, in order not to have to wait in line for departure, that’s all,” Mr Putin said at his closing press conference at this year’s G20 meeting in the Turkish city of Antalya. “There were no problems at all, not then and not now.” The depth of mistrust still to overcome with the US was captured by Mr Putin himself. “It is difficult to criticise us when they tell us: ‘You are not hitting [Isis]’, and we say: Tell us where, name targets’, but they don’t,” the Russian leader said.
A shocking video has emerged which appears to show a group of Muslim men threatening the owners of the Bataclan for hosting pro-Israeli events, seven years before the horrific attack on the concert hall which killed 89 people.
The video shows a group of young Muslim men wearing headscarves to hide their faces as they confront doormen at the popular Paris venue about an annual fundraising gala for the Israeli army.
During a series of coordinated attacks in Paris on Friday night 89 music fans were killed and more than 100 were injured when gunmen fired into the crowd during a concert by rock band Eagles of Death Metal.
Militants threatened Bataclan with an attack SEVEN years ago

The video shows a group of young Muslim men wearing headscarves to hide their faces as they confront doormen at the popular Paris venue, the Bataclan, about an annual fundraising gala for the Israeli army
In the video the group of men demand to speak to the Bataclan’s bosses and the group’s spokesman tells the doormen: ‘We are youths from several districts in the suburbs of Paris and we support the Palestinian people.’
He tells the doormen they are unhappy with the Bataclan’s owners for allowing the venue to be used every year for a fundraising event for the Israeli army, which they accuse of being racist.
It is unclear if the attack by ISIS on Friday targeted the venue because it holds the annual events.
During the incident gunmen burst into the venue shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’, or ‘God is great’.
“Information sources have reported on the general situation for the complication LIH groups in Syria and Iraq. So, as a result of aviaudrov videoconferencing Russian terrorists have suffered losses in their leadership that has affected the management and coordination of the various gangs. Meanwhile, the US aircraft destroy oil rigs and bombed the place of oil.
It is believed that deprives LIH stable source of income, which is essential for the effective continuation of hostilities. French Air Force after the terrorist attacks in Paris launched a series of attacks on the “capital LIH” – Rakka city, destroying the headquarters, warehouse and terrorist training camps. Syrian government troops pushed around Islamists gradually in all provinces of the country. In Latakia 103rd brigade of the Armed Forces of ATS released a few areas in the northeast of the province, taking the number of settlements in the direction of Latakia, Idlib. The 105th brigade of the Syrian army is completely clean up the strategic Homs-Damascus highway, previously blocked by militants «Jaysh Al-Islam” (“Army of Islam”).
Sources from the scene convey that to the east of Aleppo is a mass departure of terrorists previously held positions, which is more like a rout. The Syrian government army slowly but methodically moving forward, taking one village after another. A certain slowness associated with the widespread mining of Railways and the settlements themselves.
The situation in the Palmyra can also inspire optimism. 67th Tank Brigade and the 550th Regiment, belonging to the 18th Division Sun CAP, with the support of the militia of Homs, broke the resistance fighters LIH near the village of Al-Bayarat and move west to take over the settlement Al-Tamtheel and Al-Kassarat, threatening, if successful, close grouping in the “pot”.
Near the air base Kveyris security forces seized Rasmi Al Aboud and pushed militants 40 kilometers east of Aleppo. Often terrorists during his retreat lost entire departments and are then in the arms already at the Turkish border. New batch of mercenaries who are pulled to the line of contact of Idlib and Hama, still can not turn the tide in their favor. Commanding heights at Byrne were repelled the Islamists, and they are forced to retreat to Serakabu. Government artillery already able to completely sweep the highway Aleppo-Idlib, do not allow the formation of LIH to fully implement the provision of outgoing groups. In view of the flight and partial desertion personnel militants in Idlib declared total mobilization. In battle there is direct even teenagers.
In the province of Damascus Islamists lost control of the highway in the direction of Quneitra and defeated in Dzhobare. In Marge Sultana group of militants, losing combat capability, he surrendered to the government troops.
In the province of Deraa situation is quite complicated. The situation there is a “layer cake”, which, with varying success fighting the Syrian government units forming the “Free Syrian Army” and Islamists groups of various kinds. Moreover, Islamic militants and the so-called “moderate opposition” sometimes fighting each other for control of key strategic points.

As the US is playing the no-Assad-no-Terrorists game, other powers such as Russia and Iran are doing the actual job, which is to fight terrorists. Just look at the advances they made in the last 24 hours: http://el-akhbar.com/en/Syria-Last-Hours-Army-29067/
Now, who is more determined to help end this mess?
The big push for the Hegemon wil be to gain and hold Raqqa and to use the Kurds and newly rebranded “moderates” as cover. meanwhile Hollande has declared martial law basically for 3 months. A French friend of mine says that the French always let this happen and then “when things are sorted out, we re establish democracy”. OK. my American mentality is to fall back on the 2nd amendment rather than trust in a vague hope and trust in the future.
The French are used to retreating and then celebrating the end of the war fought by others and freeing them from their foolishness.
Dropping some bombs is not fighting a war. Embracing your enemy and hoping he won’t cut your throat is delusion.
Open borders is nirvana. The beasts of the wild are inside their house and gardens.
The Elites are safe. The citizens of the world are unguarded sheep helpless against the hordes.
Now, the word is Russia is the key to winning. Americans are preparing to work with the Russians. Hollande wants a coordination with the Russians.
It’s an old story, rewritten in fresh blood. The West needs Russians to save their bacon.
Putin should demand, require the immediate lifting of sanctions. And the disarmament of Kiev’s putative military. A neutralized Ukraine should be the price for Russian efforts to save the West from itself.
Salam Red Ryder,
Red Ryder quote: “Putin should demand, require the immediate lifting of sanctions. And the disarmament of Kiev’s putative military. A neutralized Ukraine should be the price for Russian efforts to save the West from itself.”
1. Putin has already been given Crimea on a Silver Platter.
2. Ukraine is already Federalized according to Putin’s wishes.
3. Put is going to be all over The Middle East. He is in Syria now, pretty soon he will be in Lebanon, Iraq, Egypt, Libya, Yemen ……. sharing the resources.
4. And, selling arms to both The Middle East and Iran. He has already started to sell arms to Syria, Iran, Egypt, Iraq and so on…..
5. The King of Saudi Arabia will be visiting Putin at the end of this month.
6. Putin then within one month will visit Iran after a very long time, after 2007.
Best regards,
Mohamed.
Salam Gerry1211,
1. I am aware of Crimea history, therefore it doesn’t belong to Russia anymore. Like I said it was given to Putin on a Silver Platter.
2. Due to Israel and AIPAC, no one was allowed to sell their best military hardware to Iran, Lebanon, Syria, Iraq, Libya….. And, this included Russia too, irregardless of Russian technology. Russia was simply not allowed.
3. Russia is a regional power, no longer it is Super Power like USSR. However, Obama is allowing Russia and Putin to get bigger, maybe a Super Power again. Maybe!
4. It is news to me that the King of Saudi Arabia is in hospital. The last I read about him in Arabic language that he is due soon to visit Putin in Moscow.
5. I have no objection Putin going anywhere nor visiting anyone. However, his visit to Iran is after the King of Saudi Arabia visiting him. I was simply putting 2+2 together.
Best regards,
Mohamed.
No it wasn’t handed to the Russians on a “Silver Platter”.
Though the Russians were a few steps ahead of NATO and had a sizable military presence in Crimea which helped considerably.
You do realise that the US had all intentions of taking over Sevastopol right? Not like the Construction Tenders at the DOD was not a give away and also mystery flights emanating from Turkey during the Maidan.
Irony being that 80% of the Ukrainian Forces stationed there happily merged with the RF Forces given the opportunity and only those that had family in Ukraine transferred back there. Given the situation and the plays the US/NATO made, it was definitely not a hand over but more so that the RF was a few steps ahead and given the resounding majority of Crimeans in favor of returning to the RF, which they had been trying for the previous 2 decades, the RF prevailed.
Now we have instead of Sevastopol, Odessa being set up as NATO’s Black Sea base of operations but again, things are not going smoothly there either.
hi, teranam.!
Tell please, yur french friends and way more of their connections not to lose any time now. And rebuff Obama at once on his speech.
The French should go to the streets with banners written like:
No! It´s one “value” in your northern border
and another in your south border? No, thanks!
As usual, those are “moderate” becuase the US says so !
that’s how it is. If Assad drops bombs, it’s always against innocent civilians, if US drops bombs, it’s always to “protect innocent civilians”. They believe in their own BS because “we are an empire now, we can create our own reality” – this is what they truly believe, believe it or not.
Salam All,
I live in desert and the Oil is carried from Oil Fields to Sea Terminals to be loaded onto ships in 2 ways.
1. Pipelines to which all Oil Fields are connected, carrying The Oil all the way to Sea Terminals.
2. Conney of heavy vehicle trucks loading from Oil Fields to carry The Oil on highways all the way to Sea Terminals. Very, very expansive method, requires heavy maintenance on trucks and owing lots of lots of heavy truck.
One has to own or have uninterrupted access from Oil Fields to Sea Terminals to be loaded onto the Ships. Now here is the kicker, does our ISIS (goddess) which is a figment of imagination has access to all the above. Here is the list again:
1. Oil Fields
2. Sea Terminal
3. Uninterrupted pipeline from Oil Fields to Sea Terminals.
4. Uninterrupted access to highways connecting these Oil Fields to Sea Terminal and bunch of heavy vehicle with maintenance capabilities.
Guess what The Empire has done today?
“Intensifying pressure on the Islamic State, United States warplanes for the first time attacked hundreds of trucks on Monday that the extremist group has been using to smuggle the crude oil it has been producing in Syria, American officials said.”

In all those years. And, what is Russia doing for the last six weeks?
Rejoice,

Salam Everyone,
Below is an image of the talks in Vienna, Austria on November 14, 2015 on Syria:
http://i.huffpost.com/gen/3669758/images/n-VIENNA-SYRIA-large570.jpg
Look at the seating arrangement very carefully. Who is the boss of the meeting. Yes, you got it.
It is John Kerry!
Not Sergey Lavrov, and not Staffan de Mistura!
Russia soon be in all The Middle East and USA will graciously bow out.
Rejoice,
Mohamed.
Mohamed, the picture of the table layout indicates that the three at the table array with Turkey to the left as we look at them, Russia to the right and Kerry in the middle. A troika?
The US is caught in the middle and is not driving the diplomacy. Lavrov laid down the agenda and the others have signed on, despite the group that wants Assad out.
The UN will be involved, groups will be vetted, elections will be held, a transition government will be created, Assad will stay for as long as the people want him. These are Russian conditions.
So, the US may seem to be directing the show, but they are the hood ornament on the Russian vehicle, as they were for the Chemical Weapons initiative and Minsk 2 (where Porcoshenko is the hood ornament).
Diplomacy is the Russian and Chinese imperative. War and chaos is the US process of choice.
Be well, my friend. I enjoy your sharp eye and mind.
Salam Red Ryder,
Thanks for your kind words and I always reed your post with pleasure too.
Regarding the tables, I have seen other pictures of it. The Head Table seats 3 persons, but both the side tables on each side are very, very long, due to number of attendees.
I predicted on this site that Assad is here to stay, when Hezbollah joined the fight with Syria.
I am right now watching CNN, and they are tying the last 3 terrorists attacks togather, the Russian airline in Egypt, the bombing in South Lebanon (Hezbollah area) and now Paris. It is the first time other lives matter, the lives of Arabs and Russian matter too.
Obama has brought Russia to the gates of IsraHeel with best of Russian Military Hardware. The bear is old, wise and very prudent. The bear had past experience with Afghanistan. So this time the bear must had guarantees from bald eagle before they put boots in Syria.
Best regards,
Mohamed.

Salam Gerry1211,
I have been on this site for the last 2 years and my views are well known on this site. I predicted 2 years ago on this site that both Obama and Putin are working together. That both AIPAC and Netanyahu will become history.
Also, I have been saying for about last 2 years that ISIS (goddess) is a figment of imagination.
Best regards,
Mohamed.
yes, mohamed.
Your prediction capabilities failed totell us in what, precisely on which item Obomba and Putin are working together.
in general policy?
in dominating Syria?
in pouring down weapons to the IS
In their vivid will to build up a pipeline of their own(each one´s) thru to theMediterranean?
Have both of them forgotten to tell their whole domestic press&media to conciliate with each other, since they in factwork together?
give us your lights, please on what prophecies have turned
Salam augusto,
Why don’t you use the search facilities on this and old blog. BTW, your questions are small and insignificant. Think in bigger terms, in terms of IsraHell.
Best regards,
Mohamed.
Salam august,
No American President is strong enough to take on IsraHell lobby AIPAC, including Obama. So, Obama recruited the help of both Putin and USA Congress to make both AIPAC and Netanyahu history.
Best regards,
Mohamed.
It seems fairly relevant to assume that a position at the table has presence over the other seats. We could test this hypothesis by looking at past examples.
“Carry fire in one hand and water in the other.” -Russian proverb
I have a love-hate relationship to war. I support the war by following it here and donating to SF. I guess that’s the meaning of carrying fire in one hand.
But I also carry as much water as I can. I’m not a pacifist but I am a peace-maker, at least within myself. It’s not a comfortable position but it seems the only way to go for now.
As I look back on my life from the vantage of 75 years I can see that I was doing violent, war-like actions that the society says are not violent at all but peaceful and necessary. I now see that those are self-serving lies.
I resolve to love with all my heart even in the black heart of war. It’s a dangerous high-wire to walk. For example, if I were a soldier on the south front and I witnessed my commander killing civilians contrary to international law, would I report him and risk my own life? I don’t know. From my past in other situations I’d probably not say anything. But maybe some miracle of courage would enable me to do the right thing.
Traditionally, like what the Song of Songs portrays, vineyards are peaceful places where ancient love rites took place. That’s how I view this vineyard, an oasis of water nourished love surrounded by the fires of war.
For me this is more than a romantic notion but the very core of what is required to throw water on the war dance. I don’t feel very well at the moment, partly because of the exposure to the second-hand smoke of war stories and partly because I’m just plain stupid.
Lately, I’ve been reading and listening to Count Tolstoy. He was a war hero at Sevastopol in the Crimean war early in life. Later he became a pacifist based on the teachings of Christ, or so he believed. He was a brilliant and courageous person but his premises were stupid and so he ended up badly.
He was 82 when he died at a railroad station “with no direction home.” I’ve got seven more years to match his lifespan. I hope I don’t end up at some outpost in the dead of winter, estranged from my family. The authorities wouldn’t even let his wife see him. If I have the strength I’ll die in a vineyard surrounded by lovers.
I suppose when my time comes, the killers will still be doing their thing but if I play my cards right, in my mind and heart I’ll enjoy vineyard delights no matter what condition my body is in.
I appreciate being able to express like this although many might think it OT and inappropriate for the conversation here.
William James said “The horror is the thrill.” I prefer the thrill of love, even if it’s just the idea of it. War is a mirage in the desert; love is a miracle in the vineyard.
Well said. There are times you have to fight, whether individually or collectively. But if war is all that’s in you ashes is all that will come of it.
“War Pigs”
Generals gathered in their masses,
just like witches at black masses.
Evil minds that plot destruction,
sorcerer of death’s construction.
In the fields the bodies burning,
as the war machine keeps turning.
Death and hatred to mankind,
poisoning their brainwashed minds…Oh lord yeah!
……………………………………………………………
Now in darkness, world stops turning,
ashes where the bodies burning.
No more war pigs have the power,
hand of god has struck the hour.
Day of judgement, god is calling,
on their knees the war pigs crawling.
Begging mercy for their sins,
Satan, laughing, spreads his wings…Oh lord, yeah!
Dennis, you never heard of fragging?
Yes, I have but fragging is not something I could do in my present state of mind. Perhaps if I was a young conscript and was in a group that felt it was the only just choice, I might but that’s just conjecture. War is such a twisted beast that I don’t know what it might do to my mind.
On fleek- this response is as real as it gets. The conversation on this site is 100% raw contact with reality on a level of specificity uninhabited by most. It’s one thing to read, but it takes much more to write something like what you wrote here. I have to join this conversation now, the magic is cast.
There’s a good summary by Gilbert Doctorow of the present political posturing in the aftermath of the Paris massacre:
http://russia-insider.com/en/politics/political-aftermath-paris-attacks/ri11193
https://www.rt.com/news/322305-isis-financed-40-countries/
good article including
President Vladimir Putin says he’s shared Russian intelligence data on Islamic State financing with his G20 colleagues: the terrorists appear to be financed from 40 countries, including some G20 member states.
Trends
Islamic State, Russian anti-terror op in Syria
During the summit, “I provided examples based on our data on the financing of different Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) units by private individuals. This money, as we have established, comes from 40 countries and, there are some of the G20 members among them,” Putin told the journalists.”
and
Putin pointed out the change in Washington’s stance on cooperation with Moscow in the fight against the terrorists.
“We need to organize work specifically concentrated on the prevention of terrorist attacks and tackling terrorism on a global scale. We offered to cooperate [with the US] in anti-IS efforts. Unfortunately, our American partners refused. They just sent a written note and it says: ‘we reject your offer’,” Putin said.
“But life is always evolving and at a very fast pace, often teaching us lessons. And I think that now the realization that an effective fight [against terror] can only be staged together is coming to everybody,” the Russian leader said.
and
“It’s really difficult to criticize us,” he said, adding that Russia has repeatedly asked its foreign partners to provide data on terrorist targets in Syria.
“They’re afraid to inform us on the territories which we shouldn’t strike, fearing that it is precisely where we’ll strike; that we are going to cheat everybody,” the president said.
“Apparently, their opinion of us is based on their own concept of human decency,” he added.”

Polish getting nervous over Ukraine
extract
“The United States use Ukrainian nationalists in the fight against Russia. For me, Ukrainian nationalists coming to power is only possible in western Ukraine – should they fall into the process of becoming autonomous or completely exit from Ukraine, and I am afraid that this process of pushing out western Ukraine will continue. The area around the Ukrainian-Polish border may then become territory where various terrorist groups will penetrate. Assassinations could take place. In the event of any action by oligarchs against nationalists, armed groups in the framework of escape can penetrate frontier areas in order to hide. Here you can list an entire catalog of threats to national security. We will have to deal with the development in western Ukraine of a situation we had in Northern Ireland. So that means a creeping conflict which is very real and this conflict could spread to the entire border area.’
——————————————————–
“President Vladimir Putin says he’s shared Russian intelligence data on Islamic State financing with his G20 colleagues: the terrorists appear to be financed from 40 countries, including some G20 member states.”
This is very big. Prediction: NATO media won’t report it.
And the icing on the cake with this report is:
Putin also spoke of the urgent need to curb the illegal oil trade by IS.
“I’ve shown our colleagues photos taken from space and from aircraft which clearly demonstrate the scale of the illegal trade in oil and petroleum products,” he said.
“The motorcade of refueling vehicles stretched for dozens of kilometers, so that from a height of 4,000 to 5,000 meters they stretch beyond the horizon,” Putin added, comparing the convoy to gas and oil pipeline systems.

Let’s see, one buzz job to allow the drivers the choice of departure or frying, then one thermobaric at each end and one in the middle for good measure. Dreadful environmental mess of course, but the message would get through.
The unprecedented wave of attacks that struck Paris last night, and which left, on first accounting, at least 127 dead, is the direct consequence of the foreign policy conducted by France in Syria, a policy less concerned over the salafist terrorism than it is about the destruction of the country and the overthrow of Bashar al-Assad.
If several authors of the carnage in the Bataclan concert hall were saying, according to witnesses: “It’s Holland’s fault , it is the fault of your President, he did not have to intervene in Syria,” we must consider what was the reality of French politicy in this country since the conflict began in 2011.
The French Republic, as president François Hollande revealed in the interview with journalist Xavier Panon, has been supplying weapons to the Syrian rebels since 2012. Through channels of the DGSE, 20mm cannons, machine guns, rocket launchers, and anti-tank missiles were delivered to the “moderate” rebels, in violation of the arms embargo put in place by the European Union in the summer of 2011.
An advisor in the Elysée recalled, according to Panon:
“Yes indeed, we are furnishing what they need, but within the limits of our means and in accordance with our evaluation of the situation. Under cover, you can’t act except on a small scale, with limited means, limited objectives.”
France has also put special forces on the ground aimed at the training and operational support of the combattants.
In March 2012, 13 French officers got captured by the Syrian Army when the Islamic Caliphate was relaunched in the Baba Amr quarter at Homs by the Al-Farsouq brigade and the Al-Waleed brigade, which would soon leave the FSA to join ranks with the Islamic State.
President Hollande, quoted in Le Monde confided in August 2014:
“We can’t let up on our support that we have been granting these rebels who are the only ones sharing the democratic spirit.”
Since the Syrian president Bashar al-Assad has declared more than once, that there aren’t any “moderate” rebels, one might inquire as to the actual nature of the rebel groups sustained and armed by the French state since 2012.
The Foreign Minister Laurent Fabius declared on this subject that the Al-Nosra front (Syrian branch of Al-Qaida), “was doing a good job.” On the other hand, Syrian relatives of people killed by Syrian rebels entered suit at the tribunal of Paris against Fabius, seeking symbolic reparations for the “personal failings committed by the minister of foreign affairs Laurent Fabius”
And the US Defense Intelligence Agency in a 2012 report had already determined that the help for “moderate” rebels actually benefitted the Islamic State: According to the former agency director, General Flynn, the indirect help of the US and the western coalition to the Islamic State was “an intentional decision.” In an earlier article on the troubled role of the western coalition in Iraq and Syria, I laid out the factually different elements that demonstrated the support and operational cooperation of Turkey, the US, and Israel with different jihadist groups [Western sponsors of the Islamic State].
These different elements show clearly enough that the western coalition, France included, has conducted a policy of support for various jihadist groups in their goal of overturning president Bashar al-Assad, under the pretense of that fiction of bringing help to the mythical “moderate” rebels.
The recent Russian intervention put a spotlight on the true nature of the pretend rebel groups when it brought about a chain of complaints and protestations from the western capitals that the strikes were hurting rebels supported by the West [(!) — Tr.] However, the groups hit by Russian aircraft belong to the Army of Conquest — a collection including the Al-Nosra Front (Syrian branch of Al Qaeda) and such Islamist groups as Ahrar al-Sham.
Unfortunately, it is unlikely that the support of the French executive to jihadist groups in Syria will get exposed in the light of this unprecedented wave of attacks, which nevertheless constitutes its logical and predictable conclusion. The chaos Syria has been reduced to, and the proliferation of jihadist groups are indeed the direct result of the French foreign policy in the Middle East.
Whereas when the earlier attacks in January the executive posited the internet as favoring “autoradicalization” of terrorists, and presented them in falsifying fashion as “lone wolves,” scapegoats for the lapses and incompetence of French Intel and Security services, and introduced devises for mass surveillance of citizens, this policy was mainly aimed at individual freedoms, and has shown its futility today. It is however unlikely that the heads of security services, including the interior minister Bernard Cazeneuve – who have failed yet again – will be held accountable.
The government and the political class are hiding once again behind emotion and an insistence on “national unity.” For all that, the some ones who today declare a state of emergency and the reestablishment of control of the borders were barely just a few weeks back committing our participation in the welcoming of Syrian immigrants, in the name of humanitarian principles, and this despite the reservations of EUROJUST [agency for European judicial coordination], which affirmed that the influx included close connections with terror organizations in Syria.
“It is an alarming situation because we see plainly that the smuggling is destined to finance terrorism and that the migration is often being used for the infiltration of members of the Islamic State.”
If, as president François Hollande says, France is “at war” today, then France essentially owes it to the incompetences of the executive and to the criminal incoherence of French foreign policy that has sustained and armed the jihadists who are plunging Syria into chaos …

This was posted by Pepe Escobar on his facebook page. Reproduced in whole for those who don’t have a facebook account. Link for those who do.
He refers to the 3 types of teams. The final one is the most interesting for those looking for professional involvement.
THE EXPENDABLES
There were glaring differences between the three teams at the Paris carnage.
The Stade de France team featured absolute patsies trying to enter a football match in a heavily policed stadium wearing a suicide vest. Expendable “martyrs” – “Syrian passport” and all.
The Bataclan team featured calm, relatively proficient shooters, but still martyrs. They knew a hostage situation, in France, could only finish with their “martyrdom”. Less expendable, but still expendable.
The heart of the matter is the drive-by team. Or “teams”. Notice corporate media is absolute mum on them, because the investigation itself seems to be clueless.
The killers at La Belle Équipe arrived on a black Mercedes, according to witnesses. There is NO mention of this Mercedes anywhere. The killers were ultra-pro, muscular, methodical, and WHITE. NO ONE is talking about them.
These are the NON-EXPENDABLES. The high-priced mercenaries. While all the media circus spreads from Grenoble and Toulouse to Brussels and even Raqqa, they have simply vanished without a trace.
Who are they? And who hired them? Certainly not social network jihadi al-Baljiki.

Anybody who remembers George Bushs post 9/11 speech and his “they hate us for our freedoms” and “we are at war” cannot help but get a weird feeling of dejavu listening to Hollande over the past few days. We all know that 9/11 unleashed the greatest rampage and blood lust of the neo cons across a wide swathe of this planet the world has ever seen and I fear we are about to witbess part two of the play. From the Guardian today :
“French president calls for coalition to ‘fight terrorist army’ and dispatches aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle to eastern Mediterranean.
Addressing both houses of parliament at the Palace of Versailles on Monday, the French president said the country was engaged in “a war against jihadi terrorism”. The sponsors of the carnage in the capital “must know that their crimes further strengthen the determination of France to fight them and to destroy them”, he said.
“More strikes are needed, and we will carry them out,” Hollande added. “More support for all fighting against Isis is needed, and France will provide it. But we need a union of all who can fight this terrorist army in a single coalition.”
Havent we been here before ? I cant say I know how this is all going to play out but a leopard doesn’t change its spots and I simply cant help thinking this is all somehow going to morph into an all out invasion of Syria to finally carry out their regime change which they seem to be fanatically obsessed over. Although they are all making the right noises at the moment about “co-ordinating” with Russia, etc. I will not trust them as far as I can throw them and none of them as of yet has so much as even tentatively suggested co-ordinating efforts with the Syrian army who are the ones actually fighting ISIS on the ground, unless and until they do this everything is just window dressing.
The sheeple of Europe are once again being led to the slaughter by their “elected representatives”.
The article further goes on to state :
“Announcing an extension of France’s national state of emergency to three months, Hollande also called for constitutional reforms to allow the state to better counter the new terrorist menace”.
French law must allow dual nationals to be stripped of their citizenship if they were convicted of terrorism, and banned from entering France if they presented a terrorism risk, he said.
He said 5,000 more police officers – mainly anti-terrorist and border forces – would be hired, and that no further cuts would be made to military personnel until at least 2019″.
Welcome to fortress Europe, or should I say Animal Farm.
Just saw this headline in the Guardian :
“Obama rules out Syria ground invasion in passionate defence of Isis strategy”.
Its definitely guaranteed then, Syria is going to be invaded.

Terror in Paris: The Islamic State (ISIS/ISIL), European Politics, and the International Context
Eric Draitser of StopImperialism.org appears on CPR Sunday (November 15, 2015) with security analyst Mark Sleboda and journalist/broadcaster Don DeBar. Eric, Mark and Don discuss the tragic events in Paris on Nov. 13, and the fallout from that. They examine the narrative of the attack, the objectives of the Islamic State (which has claimed responsibility), and the importance of asking the right questions about what happened. Additionally, Eric, Mark, and Don touch on the significance of the attacks for French politics and the European continent generally, as well as how this will be used to justify an expansion of the war on Syria and the regional conflict more broadly.

First a moment of silence for the brave SAA soldiers who were killed in the last month, many of whom used to post information on the front whose loss would mean a lot less information for us to learn of the conditions and reality on the ground.

FSA offensives a lot more effective than SAA even though it was started by 4 or 5 people.. Now FSA holds huge areas in Syria..

“I can tell you a secret: I did this [leaving the G20 early last year] for technical reasons, in order not to have to wait in line for departure, that’s all,” Mr Putin said at his closing press conference at this year’s G20 meeting in the Turkish city of Antalya. “There were no problems at all, not then and not now.” The depth of mistrust still to overcome with the US was captured by Mr Putin himself. “It is difficult to criticise us when they tell us: ‘You are not hitting [Isis]’, and we say: Tell us where, name targets’, but they don’t,” the Russian leader said.

A shocking video has emerged which appears to show a group of Muslim men threatening the owners of the Bataclan for hosting pro-Israeli events, seven years before the horrific attack on the concert hall which killed 89 people.
The video shows a group of young Muslim men wearing headscarves to hide their faces as they confront doormen at the popular Paris venue about an annual fundraising gala for the Israeli army.
During a series of coordinated attacks in Paris on Friday night 89 music fans were killed and more than 100 were injured when gunmen fired into the crowd during a concert by rock band Eagles of Death Metal.

In the video the group of men demand to speak to the Bataclan’s bosses and the group’s spokesman tells the doormen: ‘We are youths from several districts in the suburbs of Paris and we support the Palestinian people.’
He tells the doormen they are unhappy with the Bataclan’s owners for allowing the venue to be used every year for a fundraising event for the Israeli army, which they accuse of being racist.
It is unclear if the attack by ISIS on Friday targeted the venue because it holds the annual events.
During the incident gunmen burst into the venue shouting ‘Allahu Akbar’, or ‘God is great’.

“Information sources have reported on the general situation for the complication LIH groups in Syria and Iraq. So, as a result of aviaudrov videoconferencing Russian terrorists have suffered losses in their leadership that has affected the management and coordination of the various gangs. Meanwhile, the US aircraft destroy oil rigs and bombed the place of oil.
It is believed that deprives LIH stable source of income, which is essential for the effective continuation of hostilities. French Air Force after the terrorist attacks in Paris launched a series of attacks on the “capital LIH” – Rakka city, destroying the headquarters, warehouse and terrorist training camps. Syrian government troops pushed around Islamists gradually in all provinces of the country. In Latakia 103rd brigade of the Armed Forces of ATS released a few areas in the northeast of the province, taking the number of settlements in the direction of Latakia, Idlib. The 105th brigade of the Syrian army is completely clean up the strategic Homs-Damascus highway, previously blocked by militants «Jaysh Al-Islam” (“Army of Islam”).
Sources from the scene convey that to the east of Aleppo is a mass departure of terrorists previously held positions, which is more like a rout. The Syrian government army slowly but methodically moving forward, taking one village after another. A certain slowness associated with the widespread mining of Railways and the settlements themselves.
The situation in the Palmyra can also inspire optimism. 67th Tank Brigade and the 550th Regiment, belonging to the 18th Division Sun CAP, with the support of the militia of Homs, broke the resistance fighters LIH near the village of Al-Bayarat and move west to take over the settlement Al-Tamtheel and Al-Kassarat, threatening, if successful, close grouping in the “pot”.
Near the air base Kveyris security forces seized Rasmi Al Aboud and pushed militants 40 kilometers east of Aleppo. Often terrorists during his retreat lost entire departments and are then in the arms already at the Turkish border. New batch of mercenaries who are pulled to the line of contact of Idlib and Hama, still can not turn the tide in their favor. Commanding heights at Byrne were repelled the Islamists, and they are forced to retreat to Serakabu. Government artillery already able to completely sweep the highway Aleppo-Idlib, do not allow the formation of LIH to fully implement the provision of outgoing groups. In view of the flight and partial desertion personnel militants in Idlib declared total mobilization. In battle there is direct even teenagers.
In the province of Damascus Islamists lost control of the highway in the direction of Quneitra and defeated in Dzhobare. In Marge Sultana group of militants, losing combat capability, he surrendered to the government troops.
In the province of Deraa situation is quite complicated. The situation there is a “layer cake”, which, with varying success fighting the Syrian government units forming the “Free Syrian Army” and Islamists groups of various kinds. Moreover, Islamic militants and the so-called “moderate opposition” sometimes fighting each other for control of key strategic points.
