A column of Russian Airborne Forces passes a US military checkpoint in northern Syria.
This is symbolic of what is taking place all over the Middle-East, really.
Enjoy!

It seems that US will leave Syria soon. And after that step, the gringos will lose too much power not just in that zone but in all around the world.
Those are Russian Airborne troops not just Military Police.
By the way, the Russians won, the US lost.
Another thing, the Syrians love the Russians. No one loves the Americans.
The Russians are moving in to a Kurdish area, tal Temer in Rojava, to protect the Kurds from the Turks and its proxies.
Yankee… Go home
It would be interesting to post this at QUTE-anal or broadcast at MAG@ rally or lunch time at time square… The freedom-loving voting ppl needs to know the REAL truth what their boys are really up against!
I wonder if the Russians really had no time for making a desert camouflage, you know – old school stealth technology ;-)
…or they just don”t give a shit.
…they just don´t give a shit..! :P
“Don´t mess with The Bear, idiots..!”

Their role is peacekeepers, not combatants. Hiding yourself would work against that no?
It seems that “The Bear” is ending a war once again, “as usual”… ;)
In the realm of international state craft, this, along with the “missile slap” recently delivered by Iran, are of extreme significance.
Why?
They are graphic examples of the slowly unfolding status erosion of the US.
Increasingly, we see where the US – however grudgingly – have to place the military option on the back burner.
Trump dropped a huge bomb on Afghanistan, in a supposed bid to intimidate the Taliban
He ranted and raved about about “fire and fury” with North Korea
And he vowed to destroy Iranian cultural sites if Iran responded to his cowardly crime at Baghdad Airport
In each case his bluff was called, resulting in the US losing face and prestige.
Today the US is almost begging the Taliban for a face-saving exit from Afghanistan.
Kim Jong Un of North Korea has persevered with the country’s missile and nuclear programs and now boasts missiles that can project violence on US territories, if not the mainland itself
The Islamic Republic defied Trumps threats and rained down ballistic missiles on 2 of its bases in Iraq – and Trump went silent for hours, with not so much as a tweet.
The net effect of these events, is that the US is being challenged and is in virtual retreat globally.
Economic sanctions are increasingly the weapon of choice for the US, as its military options decrease. And even this will soon run its course, as more and more countries devise financial and economic alternatives outside the orbit of the empire.

…and those of us who have had some empathy for the lively and dynamic world created by Hollywood and Madison Avenue now feel nothing but contempt for the extreme malevolence that lurks behind this facade…ie the US has lost Hearts and Minds also in Western Europe…it no longer feels good to buy US-made products ….just a matter of time before the bumbling oaf and quisling for the Empire, Stoltenberg, is also sent packing…
I hope so. We know quislings in this country (Quisling staged a nazi coup in 1940 on the back of german occupants). Quisling was executed after the war. Stoltenberg is indeed a quisling.
Very well said
S 400 – Forgot to add one extremely relevant issue that you mention. If Sancions are the weapon of choice for the US, then it should also be the weapon of choice for retaliation by the victims… Russia has had extreme success in implementing its own boycotts…from a situation where Russia imported 100% of chicken from the US, Russia is now fully self-sufficient and a next exporter…Russia depended on Turkey for tomatoes…and is now a next exporter…same with apples from Poland and the idiocy of relying on the Netherlands for mangoes when India and Pakistan are right next door…GM and Ford sales collapsed in Russia…Beer producers like Heineken and Carlsberg have seen sales collapse in favour of Russian home craft beers ….but the US is still successful in bullying EU countries >
Trump threatened UK with 25% car tariffs unless it agreed to accuse Iran of breaking nuclear deal

The moment when the general populations in Europe realise that each purchase of US made goods …or goods made by US corporations in Europe…ensures that more “materials and services” are able to be employed to intimidate Europeans… is when Europe can break free of this cycle of abuse. It is extremely easy > just think of the word “Toxic” every-time you have the primeval urge to buy American.
Problem is EU populations have no voice nor power, they are in the hands of their Maastricht-imposed NATO thug masters, themselves the executive arm of anglozionist transnational finance.
Nothing is allowed to be manufactured in EU save for military technology. Everything is geared towards yielding ever-increasing profit margins for the end-owners of every company and/or its creditors, and those end owners and creditors are invisible anglozionist financiers, far away from EU sheeples daily reality.
Of course we would love to dish anglozionist dollars, non-ethos and the lack of sovereignity they laid upon us, and embrace the belt and road initiative, but it is just not possible by legal means: every single one of the EU politicians is either a total moron or bought by them, often both.
As a regular reader, I would suggest to Mike Hudson that he write an article specifically aimed at
locating where on the spectrum of de-dollarization the world is now and how much rope the Empire has left in dollar hegemony..
“more and more countries devise financial and economic alternatives outside the orbit of the empire”
@S400
It would seem each one the points you wrote are on the money. In particular the humiliating pounding the US military received at their sitting-duck military bases in Iraq is undeniable. Because of the evil malevolence and sense of entitlement amongst the neocons that have cornered Trump (as his moronic need to be a childish blowhard), enlisted men in those bases had to risk being blown to pieces (US media now admits that 11 service men received severe concussion injuries from the Iranian bombing and are in hospital).
There’s no question that one of the reasons the thinking and remaining competent members of the US security apparatus deeply hate Trump is that he is a disaster for the United States and the Western Alliance: he has accelerated the decline of the US by using covert parts of US leverage openly, overtly and often (the exact opposite how it’s supposed to be done). By overtly threatening his own vassals (err allies), he’s pushing things beyond the point they will be able to tolerate.
I think there’s no one that feels more vulnerable than US soldiers since Soleimani’s assassination.
What Trump did should be a personal war crime and he should be on the dock with the parents, siblings, wives and children of US soldiers to decide his punishment.
There are reports on Veterans Today of 16 deaths at the airbase hit by Iranian missles, Source say dead and
wounded transferred to hospitals in Kuwait and some wounded sent to Germany ,If this is the case then all the more reason to charge those who are responsible for the attack and then the cover up of casualties
Drumpf admitted that US is there to plunder resources and concomitant with that to destroy Syrian civilization at orders of zionist bankers, same old story, nothing new to see there. What does Russia really get out of this, or is this just a change of guard to buffer zionists against other threats?
Google “Putin & Kissinger” 10,000’s of notes on Putin’s long mentorship under the ANZ leadership
All is owned to answer your question, but for now “Greater Israel” is the goal, but they need for you to keep your eyes off of sauron
Not so cocky now Trump? Where are your “beautiful” shiny weapons? Oh! Look Russian airborne troops driving past your “shiny” weapons and “greatest” military like they don’t give a f@*k.
Trump and his fake patriotism exposed. Watch this idiot put US soldiers in danger again (with another wag-the-dog operation) if his impeachment trial in Senate results in a few unpredictable surprises that he didn’t expect.
The US is still in Iraq and protecting its currency by occupying the oil fields there; still in cohuts with KSA and their proxy armies (ISIL, al-Qaeda); false flag placement in Iran, possibly provoking unrest in Iran by cyber-attack, jamming transponder of the Ukraine 752 (see Giraldi: https://www.globalresearch.ca/who-targeted-ukraine-airlines-flight-752-iran/5700765); US in Iraq also means intererence with BRI.
Not so positive, but Syria might finally get relief from all the warfare by US,KSA and Israel): there is some hope.
Usual awful reporting. This from zeroHedge just now – but the outcome not specified. Did Russia get through this wholly illegal blockade by America, or were they turned back?
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/us-forces-tense-showdown-russian-convoy-blocked-syrian-highway
Here’s a hint of how it ended.
“According to information Anadolu Agency obtained from reliable local sources, U.S. soldiers blocked a Russian military patrol en route to the oil field.
Tension occurred between the two groups, when U.S. soldiers asked Russian soldiers to return to the Amuda district in the northwest of Hasakah.
Russian soldiers had to return to where they came from as their way to Rumeylan, where the U.S. airbase is located, was blocked.”
Thank you Larchmonter.
Which means that US IS still dictating things in certain areas. I guess the Russians to return was a good thing to avoid a potentially dangerous confrontation – but I wish they could have prevailed.
Keep an eye on Africa. Russia has advisers and PMCs in several countries and the US AFRICOM forces are very active with special forces, too. High potential for confliction.
This incident is evocative of America’s warped nature in general.
American colonizers are illegally occupying yet another country.
But the United Snakes possesses such an in-bred sense of entitlement that these American stormtroopers are trying to obstruct the convey of a nation (Russia) that was invited by the legitimate government of this country (Syria), who have been fighting America’s precious moderate head-choppers and terrorists for the past several years.
This is America’s Goebbelsian values in action.

Notice how the US flag stops waving and hangs limp as the Russian convoy passes.
As the snow ball slowly begins to role so the snow ball increase in size. This video will one day be in every History Book in every language. We are watching the death of a rabid empire. Unfriended by everyone with an iron in the fire.
