In Progress: Heavy Gunfire, Prime Minister Office Stormed In Beirut
Yesterday we made it very clear why with the Turkey provocation avenue to further Middle East escalation rapidly closing, the one pathway left is Lebanon. Sure enough, today the escalation playbook is firmly in play - from Reuters: "Heavy gunfire erupted in central Beirut on Sunday after protesters tried to storm the offices of Prime Minister Najib Mikati, demanding that he quit over the assasination of a top intelligence official. An official said security forces had fired in the air. Witnesses said at least two protesters had fainted, apparently as a result of tear gas fired by security forces after protesters breached an outer barrier around the prime minister's offices. Hundreds of protesters, waving flags from the anti-Syrian opposition Future Movement - a mainly Sunni Muslim party - and Christian Lebanese Forces as well as black Islamist flags, marched on Mikati's offices after the funeral of Wissam al-Hassan."
When in doubt blame Syria: after all the horribly split US congress needs some flag to rally behind two months ahead of a decision that will force it to come up with a grand compromise which in the absence of a foreign conflict (and a third presidential debate precisely forcusing on US foreing policy), just isn't happening: "They accused Syria of being behind Hassan's killing and called for Mikati to resign."
Supposedly this means Syria took some time off from its busy daily schedule of provoking Turkey and NATO, and lobbing artillery shells into Turkish territory fully aware it (any by it we mean 'flip-flops on the ground' sponsored branches Al Qaeda operating in its territory of course) is playing with a fully blown Western world retaliation.
Finally, as a reminder - this is the regional sectarian powder keg just waiting for a "someone" to drop a lit match...

Interesting times...
gotta have a war, somewhere... everwhere... that way we can save the world by killing everyone- NWO.
Just wait till someone drops a match on the American regional sectarian powder keg. When that happens the middle east will look like the Garden of Eden.

White people in the US only riot after sporting events.
Even then they tend to be the young and intoxicated.
Show me a bunch of seniors on a looting rampage because their Social Security didn't receive its yearly COLA raise.
Will they riot after SS is run dry?
To answer that, ask yourself that. since you will be the senior when it does run dry. Then ask yourself would you be any less pissed at 67 than today?
Conman
It will not run dry for the elderly.
Young people are fucked.
The elderly vote and you need to maintain the illusion that your vote counts.
Both Clinton and Obama fucked with SS. Obama had no increase until this year 2012 and mentions a small increase for 2013.
Bush gave one of the largest increases in quite a while.
Do you think that was out of the kindness of his heart?
war is the new peace

Why do you assume it will be the white man rioting?
john39
No, you have to have tension everywhere.
If people are in a constant of fear, and fuck we do need to capitalize on the Mayan thing, they are much easier to manipulate.
The Shite has hit the fan and the result is nasty crap splattered all over the world.
the Shiite is about to hit the fan?
real Sunni.
"Witnesses said at least two protesters had fainted"
Fags!
The rest of the world has been self immolating.
Bring on the fire bitches, bring on the fire!
Please stop abusing bold face.

buy oil...no sell oil...UST's, no short europe it's closer.
oh this is normal for that region? nvmd.
got it. thanks for letting me work this out in public.
Bush's fault.
Bruce Krasting's fault.
+ 1 , LOL...
You got the last one partially right. Just add every Prez since Ike.
In those multiple videos that were posted here a few days ago. See the one where Bush slightly pumps his fist where he says everyone in the US should own a home. He knows it's BS and doesn't like it

They hate us for our Currency
"They hate our currency" - fixed.
LawsofPhysics
Is it the AC part they hate or the streamlined appliance plugs?
Please, wake the fuck up, all fiat currency is an illusion, paper promises, nothing more. Until the issue of rampant fraud, corruption, and a complete lack of real consequences for bad behavior at all levels of society is addressed, nothing will change.
They hate us for our Currency
It makes perfect sense. If the US dollar were based on gold, we would be bankrupt by the $3.7 trillion spent on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. There world be no money for new wars in Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Syria and Libya. Could we afford 30,000 drones to patrol our own skies and tens of billions for homeland security? Peace and prosperity and personal liberty would break out.
The Vietnam war, which was much cheaper than the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, caused the US to move off the gold standard - and onto the era of permanent expensive wars since there was no limit to the number of wars that can be funded by printing by the Fed.
Now US debt stands at $16.2 trillion and unfunded liabilities at $121 trillion (no politician dare touch Medicare and Social Security - so these liabilities are real) and they grow at $8.4 trillion a year. It is our currency that allows us to be the global cop with military presence in 130 countries (Ron Paul says U.S. has military personnel in 130 nations and 900 overseas bases)
Stop printing by the Fed and you will stop many of the wars on this planet. But, of course, the mammoth profits of war will be gone (3000 helicopters in Vietnam and $400 gallon a gas in Afghanistan). But in the land of the free, your decisions are made for you. The printing and the wars will continue until the system collapses.
What we need is a nice, cheap war. Let's invade Canada! They've got lots of oil too...
Don't need to. You already control our politicians and our oil.
I say let's get Mexico. It has abetter climate and most of their population is in the US already.
plus, all our firearms are already there thanks to Holder and BarryO.
No need, US has plenty of oil. Invade Alaska.

Dude, currency is an illusion.
Anything from bottlecaps to Cowries shells can be used as currency.
The finances of nations are not related to real world rescources.
It is based on numbers on a server and those can be infinite.
The only time those fictitious numbers ever enter the real world is when a nation demands your assets.
Look to WOW or Diablo 3 as the model, except instead of credit card numbers purchasing flaming swords it is the physical home you live in but never own due to taxation.
currency is an illusion.
Mao said "power comes from the barrel of a gun." Nowadays, power, or fiat currency strength, comes from the ability to bomb and wage war.
Fiat currency is now an illusion supported by the ability to wage war and murder millions at will.
I've been prepping by replaying the Fallout games so I know what to expect.
Banksters did it. When I couldn't find my keys yesterday I knew the banksters took them. And when my student money did not come in I knew they did that too. And when my medicine from my health insurance was no longer covered that was because the banksters want people to die. And if I didn't get it all worked out I would be going to the banksters to find out what's up because they are behind just about everything evil that can be imagined. And to make a long story short by way of reference to symbolism Satan is behind the banksters actions. Actually it is genetically based and manifests during certain, specific, enviromental conditions.

Silver Vs Golds weekly moving averages. Strong relationship good for perspective. Clearing 100SMA (40/41/42$) looks like moonshot breakout. 300SMA (30$) looks like solid support.

It wasn't me, it was the "other" guys.
Syria.
I think if we haven't already reached a point where the probability of unintended consequences is higher than intended consequences that we've probably just arrived at that point. Thanks for destabilising you can have a destabilised Israel in return.
Bye bye fiat toilet paper.

Regarding the fiscal cliff, I think there will be a deal, especially if Romney wins. First, Obama already said defense contractors could ignore the WARN laws, which to me means he is going to compromise and not cut military spending. Second, if Romney wins, the Republicans will want to raise the debt ceiling as much as possible while Obama is still in office so they can say it is Obama's fault and Romney won't have to face the scrutiny of raising the debt ceiling for a while.
Not a shread of evidence the bombing was done by Syria yet all the media says it's Syria, while the the general that was killed Hassan had ferreted out numerous Israeli spys in Lebanon.
Mossad not Assad.
Pick your favority demon and blame it.
Yup. The kikenvermin mossad and al CIA duh working overtime to make israel appear the "stable democracy". This shit is getting so predictable.
Once again religion proves to be the substance that poisons everything. Bronze age superstitions and tribal loyalties willing to kill anyone in defense of their barbaric beliefs. On a hopeful note however...his holiness the pope crowns 7 misfits with sainthood in the hopes of winning converts from the dumbed down masses. He even goes so far as to anoint a mohawk lady from the 1600's who proved herself by putting burning coals between her toes and sleeping on a bed of thorns. We are so fucked.
Religion and government are both superstitions that will go extinct in unison. What a day that will be... Far, far in the future.
“Kateri impresses us by the action of grace in her life in spite of the absence of external help and by the courage of her vocation, so unusual in her culture,” Benedict said, as he sat on a golden throne wearing a cream-colored mantle with golden stripes and a miter with red trim. “May her example help us to live where we are, loving Jesus without denying who we are,” he said. “Saint Kateri, protectress of Canada and the first Native American saint, we entrust you to the renewal of the faith in the first nations and in all of North America.” Native Americans from across the United States and Canada came to Rome to celebrate Kateri, who had long been a symbol of hope. Early Sunday morning, a group from the First Nation of the Ojibwe in Manitoba, Canada, stood in a circle in Saint Peter’s Square sounding round leather drums and singing “Kateri oh Kateri, you’re in my holy plan.” “We’re very excited and happy to be here,” said one singer, Nancy Bruyere, who wore two long black braids and leather clothing with fringes. Last year, Benedict confirmed that an 11-year-old Native American boy from Washington State had been miraculously cured from a flesh-eating bacteria after his parents prayed for intervention through Kateri in 2006 — the second miracle needed to confirm sainthood.
Jake Finkbonner was so close to death after flesh-eating bacteria infected him through a cut on his lip that his parents had last rites performed and were discussing donating the 5-year-old's tiny organs.
Jake's 2006 cure from the infection was deemed medically inexplicable by the Vatican, the "miracle" needed to propel a 17th century Native American, Kateri Tekakwitha, on to sainthood. Kateri will be canonized on Sunday along with six other people, the first Native American from what is now the U.S. to receive the honor.
Jake is fully convinced, as is the Catholic Church, that the prayers his family and community offered to God through Kateri's intercession, including the placement of a Kateri relic on Jake's leg, were responsible for his survival.
Of course the drug induced coma he was put into while receiving massive doses of antibiotics at a modern hospital and treated by a team of 21st century doctors had nothing to do with it....yes, he has had to have plastic surgery to repair his disfigured body but that's just one of the side effects of miracles preformed by the "lily of the mohawks"Your arguement is a red herring. Most religions forbade usury (in any amount of interest), until they were infiltrated and subverted by secular interests. Usury begets war.
Usury was not forbidden because of the inherent flaw in debt based money. It was forbidden for entirely religious reasons. The Catholic church and all other deviant religions have no problem with running their own banks now do they?
Following your line of reasoning, the Soviet Union should have been a utopia? Rulers prefer that their subjects have no religion, no moral fibre, no self-control....and no other gods before them. Granted, if one can't destroy them, one should infiltrate them.
Your comment is non-sensical. That despots and dictators come to power has nothing to do with non-belief in the supernatural. Morals do not originate with religion. Moral fibre and self control are perfectly attained without the boot of religion on ones neck. That Stalin had a mustache does not imply that all men with facial hair are meglomaniacal dictators. The fact that most of the worlds violence today has religion as its common denominator should tell you that.
You are beyond ignorant when it comes to the soviet experience and what people were asked/forced to do for the state. Please, go speak with someone who lived it before opening your mouth again.
I junked you on your post yesterday, but did not respond, so here goes.
religion proves to be the substance that poisons everything.
“Religion” does not have the greatest track record for sure, but as another stated this is a red herring. Religion is a man made construct and therefore by definition is flawed. Religion can, and has, been used for the purposes of men and often results in the “sins of the flesh”.
Christ adamantly warned us of all this, but like many of his wisdoms we did not heed. Christ and his sacrifice is the one true way to God and our salvation. He preached no specific religion.
So the Christopher Hitchens atheism is a form of religion and provides no better solution to the world malady’s that does Islam or Catholicism, etc. Just look at the recent historical record for confirmation of this fact.
You really have only two options, Christ or not-Christ. Put your faith in Christ, that is your only chance.
I look forward to a multitude of junks.
sschu
"junking" the voice of reason is a tried and true tactic of the delusional religious. Hitches "atheism" is not a religion anymore than not collecting stamps is a hobby. "christ" never "said" anything. Delusional men wrote shit claiming more shit. I have more than your 2 options and I choose the 3d..to be an evidence based rational non-superstitious free thinking man. If you care to carry on feel free to email me at passionatepiper@gmail.com
ps..I don't revere human sacrifice or scapegoating via the same.
Looks like the great Middle East Wide Sunni-Shiia is about to kick of for real. This is a project which the West i.e. USA-NATO are very pleased to encourage. We learned the hard way in Iraq that the best way to take power in the Middle East is to first encourage a full scale blood bath of Sunni versus Shiia, then NATO picks up the pieces.
You must look to the Iraq war to learn how this works. Sunni fought the US occupation to a standstill and many American troops died or were seriously wounded. After some years the US hit upon the idea of a civil war to occupy the natives. Thus we saw big bombings of Shiia sites and Shiia people. That get the civil war going, Sunnia became preoccupied in survival while the USA stepped in and offered Sunnia arms and help. This flipped Sunnis to the USA side and ended the war against US occupation.
Now we have moved this alliance forward to other nations. Syria is a prime example of course! NATO back Sunnia in hopes the two side fight and destroy eachother and the non friendly states like Syria.
The Hezbolla can also be taken down if they get locked in fighting against Sunni. So YES, the USA and itäs CIA are all over this fighting.
Exactly. it is so clear, and our ME foreign policy plan is so well laid out. So, first of all, we are Israel's friend. Except the jewish enclave has no oil. oh fuck. So we are the Saudi's friend too. Oh. Except they sponsor salafist terrorists. That's no good, because Al Quaeda is a salafist, wahabist organization as to ideology. And we are against Al Quaeda, except when we support them, like when we needed to take out Qaddafi and now Assad, because Qaddafi was a secular Arab, and Assad is Alawite, that is to say, a Shiite, who are our enemies, because they live in Iran, but not because they live in Iraq, where the Shiites are our friends, because they aren't those Sunni AQ scum we hate, except when they are members of the Muslim Brotherhood, who are now our friends, because they are opposed to Assad and Syria, and also opposed to Israel, and are the allies of Hezbollah and Hamas, whom we hate, because they are Shiites, who are our enemies, just like the Israelis, who alone spy on us, and who are the real cause of 9/11, wait, did I say that out loud? What? israel is our closest ally! We love israel!
You were on a roll, I couldn't disagree with you, until you go stupid with the 'Israelis are the real cause of 9/11' idiocy.
jtg = jewish troll guy
yo Jack, +1 for your current and post analysis.
PS: Also the Mossad was involved in the killing of more than 500 scientists in Iraq, and also the US treasury bankrolling the Iraqi klepotcrats with more than $40bn in physical cash through conduit AKA "Basel"

Good analysis here: http://www.globalresearch.ca/lebanon-bombing-impetus-for-us-nato-planned-sectarian-war/5308982
Can anyone in Lebanon verify the Christian population as shown on the map? It is my understanding that most left over the last 20 to 30 years and it is unsafe now for Christians.
Almost one half of Lebanese people belong to various Christian denominations.
I'm surprised oil is not $200 a barrel. It used to jump ten bucks just on Mid East "uncertainty" if there was nothing else going on. And the, " Obama is keeping the price down" is so Winger world as to make me laff every time. Oil is manipulated but not by the Obozo in the WH.
It's someone else's game and I am just a spectator. I just wish they would fucking get it on because I want to see this shit hit the fan before I die.
I told you we won in Viet Nam (see above Vietnamese officers aboard US carrier on patrol in South China Sea) .... we're winning the war on terror, too ! Thank you George Bush ! Demonstrators in Beirut are muddying the waters about the car bombing the day before .... more than likely their side were the perps ! Islamic terrorists abhor the peace and tranquility of Jews, Christians and Good Muslims living in harmony ! It's like IRA terrorist smearing their own shit (feces) on their cell walls .... terror tantrums !
China containment policy .... Myanmar, Laos, Viet Nam, Cambodia, Reagan lovin' Mongolia, Russia, S. Korea, Japan, Formosa, Philippines, Malaysian, Indonesia, India, Bangladesh, Australia, NZ, on and on and on ! That enough proof for ya liberal doomsdayer panty soilers ?

Just like my cherished black on black violence .... Muslim on Muslim violence has always trumped anything the Christians or Jews have done to them ! Cherished because it reveals underlying truths the media and PC whores ignore ! Let the evil ones live in their own filth and hatred !
what's the problem with you folks? it's NFL sunday for crying out loud. it's all good.
Hillary Clinton under attack in Bosnia |2008
Your bedtime stories are getting old. When someone creates enough lies to contemporaneously spin the public, maybe one of your fabricated stories will actually catch up to you. Think about it? Your entry into the history books will not end as you hoped. Your omission to global community deceit will sit next to your name, Hillary Rodman Clinton.
Next week, we’ll explain to the general population on how present foreign policy is not working under your husband’s special interest group NGO taxpayer subsidy.
Mind boggling. Does anyone have any evidence? How does this make sense? Does the Assad regime need more enemies? Is that why they would go killing in Lebanon? Apparently it is insanely easy to manipulate these people. Just kill somebody, shout he did it and point to someone.
Jake, to ask "Cui Bono?" is all it takes to figure this one out.
It's laughingly transparent who pulled their latest false flag murder here.
Excellent point about Assad btw. He doesn't benefit from this in any way.
There's a distinct odor of ziotrash treachery in the air...
During the recent debates, someone asked his opinion about the "Beruit Situation." Obama replied, "He was a good player, but Ty Cobb was better."
Its all about south Lebanons water for the zionists.Hezbollah has to lose its
Iranian backing before they can grab it.For the US its about the petrollar, and
Iran rejecting it.Everything else is smoke and mirrors.
No worries Winnie, Jews will accept Christ as their saviour before Hezbollah loses Iran's backing.
