Powerful Explosions Shake Damascus As Israel Attacks Syria For Second Time In Past Week
Citizens in Syria's capital woke up early on Sunday to a series of powerful explosions shaking the outskirts of Damascus, sending massive fireballs into the night sky. Preliminary reports that this was an Israeli attack were subsequently confirmed by NBC citing a senior US official who said Israeli jets had bombed a military research center near of Damascus. This would be the second Israeli attack on Syrian territory in the past week, following US media reports that Israel targeted a weapons shipment to the militant group Hezbollah in neighboring Lebanon overnight Thursday to Friday, although the Jewish state has refused to confirm or deny the bombing. As RT further reports, during the attack, one Israeli jet was reportedly shot down by Syria's Air Force, according to Hezbollah's Manar TV channel, citing security sources in Damascus. This has yet to be confirmed through official channels although if accurate one expects Syrian media to promptly confirm with video evidence.
Video coverage of tonight's bombing has already appeared on Youtube:
More from RT:
Israel declined to comment on the attack, but the blasts occurred a day after an Israeli official said his country had carried out an air strike targeting a consignment of missiles in Syria intended for the Lebanese militant group Hezbollah.
One of the sites hit on Sunday, the Jamraya military research centre, was also targeted by Israel in January.
"The new Israeli attack is an attempt to raise the morale of the terrorist groups which have been reeling from strikes by our noble army," Syrian television said, referring to recent offensives by President Bashar al-Assad's forces against rebels.
The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights quoted eyewitnesses in the area as saying they saw jets in the sky at the time of the explosions.
It said the blasts hit Jamraya as well as a nearby ammunition depot. Other activists said a missile brigade and two Republican Guard battalions may also have been targeted in the heavily militarised area just north of Damascus.
According to AFP, the previous attack destroyed surface-to-air missiles recently delivered by Russia that were being stored at Damascus airport, and would be delivered to Hezbollah in Lebanon. Stratfor adds the following perspective:
Israeli officials have privately stressed that Israel maintains its own specific redlines in the Syrian conflict and that despite U.S. President Barack Obama's reported stance, the use of chemical weapons against rebels is not one of them. Specifically, Israeli officials have stressed that they will not tolerate transfers of chemical weapons, ballistic missiles, advanced air-defense systems or sophisticated anti-ship missiles to Hezbollah -- or jihadist seizures of such weapons.
Over the past months, the Syrian regime has also effectively withdrawn its forces from the Golan Heights in order to use them against the rebel threat encroaching on Damascus. This has heightened Israeli concern that jihadists will take advantage of the security vacuum in the Golan Heights to begin staging attacks against Israeli units in the area. Israel has said such action will not be tolerated.
Countries near Syria are already feeling the effects of the war. A massive influx of refugees is adding further stress to the already unstable economies of Lebanon and Jordan, and earlier this week a Turkish guard was killed in a border dispute with armed Syrians. Iraq is seeing increased jihadist activity linked to the Syrian conflict. As the conflict in Syria continues to rage, the spillover effects from the civil war will continue to manifest themselves.
It was not immediately known what the "defensive" purpose of tonight's offensive was, which supposedly targeted a military research base, nor was it clear if Syria will ultimately declare a state of war with Israel following the past week's dramatic escalation in hostilities.
Most importantly, it is not known if following last week's provocative language out of the White House if this is precisely the event sought by the Obama administration to finally give the green light to a joint military operation targeting Syria.
The last question is how Russia responds, whether it remains neutral, or comes to the support of president Assad and defends its military naval assets on the Syrian coast.
While speculation a US-led escalation is ripe, the lack of any US naval support (as shown by Stratfor's naval update map from May 2) off the coast of Syria likely makes any immediate war is hardly likely, or that Israel will be on its own for at least the foreseeable future.

So we know 2nd reason why gold dropped sharply, someone knew the war coming in advance, crashed gold market and took phys gold away.
No. I am pretty sure the gold smash was just because of the yen. Case Closed, unless you can give more evidence.
And... wow... just wow... these people are sick...

Penn State trustees race sees reform candidates unseat incumbentsPenn State alumni spoke with their ballots in the university’s heated board of trustees race, as three reform candidates endorsed by a grass-roots alumni group and the family of late coach Joe Paterno unseated the two incumbents in a landslide.
Challengers Barbara Doran, William “Bill” Oldsey and Edward “Ted” Brown easily defeated the rest of the field of 39 candidates that included incumbents Paul Suhey and Stephanie Deviney, who were targeted by the group Penn Staters for Responsible Stewardship for their hand in the ousting of Paterno a year and a half ago. The third open seat belonged to Steve Garban, who resigned from the board last summer.

Joe pa was just naive.
If anyone should rot in hell, it's sandusky!
he knew- these guys( any powerful leader of any system) are control freaks and they know everything that goes on around them. that's how they maintain power-info on others in their system.
wtf man? come back to earth on this topic dude.
here's what happened:
Sandusky rapes little boys. Someone notices, and tells Joe Pa.
Joe Pa notifies campus police and/or the admins. They do nothing with it, to try to keep the university reputation under control.
Everyone is giving Joe Pa shit, JUST because he was a little naive to trust his university with the matter instead of going directly to state police. - the real criminals are those who commited (sandusky) and those who hid (Spainer et al.)
Anybody consider the idea that the Trustees were running a gigantic pedophile ring to service rich donors and any other northeastern elites with sick tastes, and that Sandusky was their point man? And maybe JoePa was told, "don't worry Joe, we'll take care of this", so he went back to coaching football? And when the whole thing blew up, they conveniently pinned it on Joe?
Kinda makes more sense when you look at it that way, doesn't it?
Possibly. More research is needed to see. (on my part that is.)
I was thinking yesterday... goddamn the world is a powder keg...
- In Japan, Abe is trying to set up a dictatorship...and of course they are on the verge of economic collapse
- China has armed border disputes with India, Indonesia, Phillippines, Vietnam and Japan... + verge of their economic bubble blowing up... and what that would mean.. (civil war in China? or China starting a war?)
- Pakistan has elections soon, it could get messy
- Right wingers are set to take power in Indian before May next year
- Afghanistan... as always in war...
- Iran... Israel and the US wants to bomb them...
- Iraq... on the verge of civil war
- Syria... total mess... on the verge of war with Israel...
- Jordan is a mess because of Syrian refugees... would probably be targeted in any war
- Lebanon... host of Hezbollah... on the verge of civil war...
- Turkey... has installed patriot missiles on the border... has itchy trigger fingers
- Egypt... the Muslim Brotherhood... you never know which directions they will take but it's probably not good
- Saudi Arabia... still a religious dictatorship funding and sheltering terrorists...
- Bahrain... could explode at any moment
- Europe... in total economic meltdown with politicians trying to do an European empire...
- Georgia... NATO is trying to make them member breaking their own rules... Russia said if that happens, it could lead to war
- Korea... always on the verge of war with NKorea's provocations and missiles launches...
- America... lot of pissed off and armed people against statist trash running state and federal government turning the country into a police state
- Mexico... hellhole in civil war with cartels becoming stronger every day
- Argentina... country in full economic collapse... again
- Venezuela... with the fall of Chavez... who knows what will happen...
But don't worry... all of this is very bullish! Just like it was in the 1930s...
Damn.....I'll be pricing bunkers tomorrow.
I hear that Simon Black's suitcase is a good place to hide...

Sehr gut, danke!
From Argentina, we're not a country "in full economic collapse".
It's just the usual suspects trying to put their hands on our huge collateral. Remember, only taking our food production into consideration, we feed 700 million people per year (we're 40 million). Among other collateral we have. The real thing I mean.
Well good for you! But Argentina is not what it used to be that's for sure.
No, it's a little harder stealing from us, killing, desappearing people, torturing, etc., nowadays. And there's freedom of speech and press, something very unusual around the World.
But unfortunately most of that food production capacity is in the GMO/transgenico shit as in soya and maiz.
Not mostly but yes. But it isn't our fault.

Several things we can be sure about recent and all future events
Whatever the MSM reports is a lie
Whatever becomes the official story is a lie that we can not question
Whatever pieces we can pull together from the internet will be the closest thing to the truth we will ever be allowed to know. Unless we can stop the psychopaths, expose the lies and free ourselves
the MSM is being propped up by the govt just like the banks-do you think they are going to bite the hand that feeds. brian williams on NBC makes $15mil a year-he'll read a news story written w/ O's feces if it means he keeps his job.
"Whatever the MSM reports is a lie"
MOAR than agreed upon.

And what combination of blue and white will their new flag be?
Netenayahu - he's knorred down to his last index finger waiting, and waiting, and waiting to push the button.
He cannot wait any longer. Moron.
Netanyahu has been waiting and waiting.
He saw Assad murder his people (with more civilians dead than in all Arba-Israeli wars combined) and the world does nothing.
He saw Iran build multiple sites, including underground, for peace and research by an elightened regime and the world keeps holding diplomatic talks.
He saw the Saudis arm Salafi fundamentalists all over the region as they figured out that the West may throw them to the dogs as they did in Egypt where the Muslims Brothers are building a liberal capitalist empire.
The Syrians, Iraqis and Iranians have already used nonconvetional weapons, but it is Israel to blame for that, as well as for Arab dictatorships, arms race, suicide bombings of Muslims against Muslims, Budhists, Jews and Christians in Iraq, Syria, Afghanistan, India, etc.
This is USA v Russia (government) by proxy?
This could be a big lulz...

Pakistan Election 2013: Imran Khan Vows to Shoot Down US Drones If ElectedIn the lead up to Pakistan's general election, which will take place on May 11, the former cricket star-turned-politician Imran Khan has again vowed to shoot down American drones if elected. Speaking at a rally in Swabi in the province of Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Khan, the Pakistan Tehreek-e-Insaf (PTI) chairman said that if U.S. drones entered Pakistani airspace, he would order the Pakistani Air Force (PAF) to shoot them down. And given that most recent polls show Khan ahead of Nawaz Sharif, president of the Pakistan Muslim League-N (PML-N) (previously thought to be the favorite) there is a very real chance that Khan will become Prime Minister.
You know, if elections would be able to change anything ... yes, you definitely know. ;-)
Inram Khan... and, you must be joking, right? And if he gets his way... this fledgling, and amatuerish no-body will probably have Musharraf hanged like the father of Pakistan's People Republic [PPR]... Zulfikar ali Bhutto. The problem with power is prefixed with the military acumen... 'General'?
Guess who/ what general had him hanged...?
Ps. Musharraf ordered the hit on Benazir Bhutto an American educated and brainwashed hopium-filled-visionary, sent to an early grave-- for what?!
Ps2. The Inter-Service Inteligence [ISI] is their CIA/FBI/DHS all rolled up in one versus the the quasi?esoteric and semi?apparatchiks Pakistan Military apparatus. The Pakistan [the low-mid proletariet] people mean absolutely shit to the countries leaders.
Ps3. We are creating a frankenstein? __ ?A.Q.

Let the diversions begin.
Iraq WMDs, Saddam, Afghanistan and now Syria. USA needs to keep fighting and destroying countries around the world thereby creating more and more enemies. This services a two fold need. The citizens of USA are diverted from the economic problems in their own country (The ongoing recession since 2008) and the politicians justify their actions of keeping the war machinery well oiled by diverting larger and larger portions of tax payers money to fund the war. These funds could be better used to improve the crumbling infrasturcture in the US and improve the lives of a majority of the population.
http://www.marketoracle.co.uk/Article40231.html
***These funds could be better used to improve the crumbling infrasturcture in the US and improve the lives of a majority of the population.***
Better watch out, with talk like that they're going to start calling you a Communist!
ak, your quote is false and below ZH standards:
"by diverting larger and larger portions of tax payers money to fund the war. These funds could be better used to improve the crumbling infrasturcture in the US and improve the lives of a majority of the population."
Look fiat is in endless supply (debt money) keeps both going..stop the worry about tax money allocation, there is no tax "money" only FRN's, the allocation of this paper is controlled by your bettors.
WW3 will start right after Ariel Sharon death (he is kept in vegitative state for several years now)
http://rt.com/news/damascus-syria-explosions-sunday-831/
During the attack, one Israeli jet was reportedly shot down by Syria's Air Force, according to Hezbollah's Manar TV channel, citing security sources in Damascus. Two Israeli pilots of the downed IDF jet have been taken to a military area in Damascus under Assad’s control, according to reports in Lebanese and Syrian media.
Ooops.
I'm an Israeli Jew and I realy don't care about European opinion or the US opinion.
After all, entire Europe will be Muslim in 20 years and the US citizens looks like a bounch of pussies when they put Boston under curfew because of one Muslim child.
Both of them don't care about 100,000 dead people in Syria but are terrified when they hear about 10 people dead from gas attack.
Israel had to stop the convoy from Syria to Hezbolla which contains missles and chemical warheads. We have the moral in our side.
Chears pussies!
It is you Jews who haved promoted multiculturalism in Europe and the USA. Now you impious people wash your hands of the damage you caused as you launch your own National Socialist blitzkrieg against your inoffensive neighbours.
Yes you are right!
The Jew let 50 millions of Muslims get into Europe!
I love to read antisemitism because this is the only place to see how the Jews controls the world.
100,000 dead in Syria are laughing at you!
As someone once said, "if Jews want to be loved they should be more lovable".
Watch this short video and tell us again that Jews aren't behind the multicultural agenda in Europe and the US...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5jl-OJJVAEg
...Ashkenazi Khazarians are many things... "semitic" isn't one of them...
Bingo. The Great Lie is exposed!
"We have the moral in our side." No, you don't! Nobody does. Can't you spot the analogy to "Gott mit uns" (God with us)? You won't get any further than the last murderers who thought so ...
Sorry to disappoint you.
This week, our PM announced that we have now 5 nuclear submarines, which makes us the 3rd world superpower. even China doesn't have so much.
The 6th submarine is being built right now.
The Jews will not have another Holocaust in the foreseeable future. We can handle chemical missles and nuclear as well.
Meanwhile in wonderland (western world), some people (most of them) are afraid of looking at Muslims.
Did you know that 100% of rapes in Norway are made by Muslims?
Our average lifespan is longer than most of the countries in the world and our suicide rate is one of the lowest. Our birth rate is the highest in the western world.
It seems that we are very happy after all.
Your envy at us will not make your future any better.
Hat sich Merkels Arschkriecherei am Ende bezahlt gemacht, ne? Abwarten, diesen trojanischen U-Booten würde ich keinen Meter weit über den Weg trauen. ;)
"Wer hat's gebaut?!" :)
Oh, you will have another Holocaust, trust me. The difference will be, that this time you won't be the victims, but the wrongdoers. Nothing else will change, and in the end, the result should be just the same as it was the last time...
And please spare me your ad homs ...
LOL, you forgot to mention who is building (free of charge) for you those nuclear submarines :) Its Germany, out of eternal guilt you try to impose on them with this holohoax myth.
***our PM announced that we have now 5 nuclear submarines***
Well that's nice. But it's too bad you don't start pay your own way instead of the American tax payers. If you're such a world power now, start standing on your own two feet and stop being such a parasitic country.
The US taxes are actually spent in the US, as part of lovely stimulus that is promoted by US corporations. They sell to Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, the Gulf countries, etc. thus creating this nice 'arms race' that prolongs war in those remote parts of the US empire.
At the same time, the US army has a great lab to experiment and check out how Russian weapons sent to Assad and Iran fair vis-a-vis the latest inventions.
And guess who gets sold the old bombs with long due expiration dates? Who is sent to handle Iran? Who puts huge radars emitting strong radiation on its soil? Oh, and on the other side, who pays very little for Mid Eastern oil and gas?
Of course, no benefit from having a front base containing Mid East countries at the gate of Europe and no benefit from the brain drain, exploiting Israeli invetions for the benefit of Intel, Google, Microsoft, Motorola, Cisco and other companies' R&D center in god's land...
And who sells US missile technology to China?
onceinalife, may you live in peace and plenty..may all of us have that blessing. but evil seems ready to have it's day. America is near death the powers that be throw rose petals on the corpse, to avoid the smell.
So the israelis hate the US and the EU too?
Well, please don't bomb us because here we don't hate anyone and everybody is welcome no matter what religion do they embrasse. Moreover, we produce excelent food and stuff and not WMD. Also, you can wear everything you like in our country and nobody is going to bother you, to mock on you.
Aren't we a step ahead on evolution?????
:)
I love this stuff. I was thinking we should have a web site of quotes called "Zionists on Zionism". You guys just choke on your own poisonous mentality given the time.
You lie.
Israel bought diesel-electric, not nuclear submarines from the Germans.
That rape in Norway was a Mossad false flag job.
Thanks I'll pin that to the door of my local happy clappy zio christian nutbag church and see if one or two of them wake up. We don't give a fuck about your dirty little colony and you don't give a fuck about us. Feelings are mutual.
Most Israelis care a lot about the US, admire it blindly and aspire to join the ranks of US corporations that are exploiting Israeli talent, with the countries best and brightest working for Intel, Google, Microsoft, Cisco and others who have major parts of their R&D and high-end manufacturing done in that colony of yours.
Israelis were the ones to warn Bush not to get entangled in Iraq, and they are the ones warning that a collapsing Egypt, and nuclear Iran, a fragile Saudi monarchy that is supporting Salafi extremists and vast networks of religious fundamentalists are all going to have a major impact on global energy prices and your security too. Of course, you can entrench yourself in the prospering US of A, and hope that nothing will impact your strong economy - China and Russia are already acting upon the opportunity.
Israelis were the ones to warn Bush not to get entangled in Iraq
Where do you get your information, Pastor Hagee? The top Neo-Co(he)ns behind Bush and the PNAC were Jews, almost to a man.
And they danced and cheered when filming the towers collapsing. With friends like that who needs enemies? Don't get me wrong I expect that ordinary Israelis are as fooled by all of the bullshit as the average American, but let's call it for what it is - a colony of mostly white Europeans with a racial bias, a doublespeak "democracy for Jews" and a collective and perpetual state of denial of the short and bloody history of their nation. As clever, articulate, friendly as any of them are they have royally fucked up the middle east and the rest of the world. Cognitive dissonance writ large.
I would guess the larger explosion to be a FAE aluminium bomb. The fragments you see glowing could be the larger aluminium particles that are designed to burn afer the main explosion to create a vacuum behind the shock front.
I thought waging a war of aggression was a war crime. That is if the UN even matters anymore.
One man's war crime is another man's Nobel Peace Prize.
When are W, Condi, Cheney, Rummy et.al. going to be indicted by the ICC?
We need to stop dividing the world into religious,political or ethnic groups when trying to explain the events that are unfolding. It is better to divide people into such groups as psychopaths, thieves, liars, morons and of course a lot of good people who quite often are manipulated or coerced.
Psychopaths, thieves, liars = Israel
Morons = gentiles

JIDF's are all over Zerohedge, take it as a compliment zeros, u matter
Some of 'those Jews' love reading Zerohedge on regular basis, agree with the criticism about Goldman, Ben and others (who also happen to be part of 'homogeneous mass' called Jews), want to end occupation, dislike the current Israeli prime minister, did not vote Obama, etc.
AND YET some of 'the Jews' may feel strongly that Zerohedge should continue its consistant sharp critical analysis when it comes to foreign affairs, focusing on the facts, even if the general message is aiming to prevent war/interventionism a la Ron Paul:
a) Assad's dictatorship is killing tens of thousands as the world stands by;
b) Iran and Russia are supplying strategic weapons betting that they can win control over Syria+Lebanon, thus weakening Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Israel et al, and gaining access to the nearby gas fields while pushing out the US;
c) Israel may be the one feeling under existential threat in view of the Islamist militias armed with long range missiles on 4 out of 5 of the neighboring territories bordering it, hence Assad's and Iran's decision to knowingly cross the red lines presented to them by Israel (and others!) over recent months may have actually been a well-planned provocation, intended to divert pressure away from the collapsing Alawi oppressive regime;
d) such development may actually be bad for us US citizens, should energy fields shift hands, a nuclear race begin in 'that remote part of the world' and friendly regimes continue to weaken as fundamentalist gain power and capabilities.
Israel started the nuclear arms race in the ME when they stole the bomb from the US.
they didn't steal shit! it was given to them... by our state department which is a wholly owned subsidiary of 'Israel'!!!
wake-up!!!
Cool it Alex Jones. There was no State of Israel when the State Department was first infiltrated by Communist Jews and fellow travelers under FDR. They worked for Stalin. I've read Witness by Whittaker Chambers, I don't need to wake up.
Kennedy: You know that we follow very closely the discovery of any nuclear development in the region. This could create a very dangerous situation. For this reason we monitor your nuclear effort. What could you tell me about this?
Peres: I can tell you most clearly that we will not introduce nuclear weapons to the region, and certainly we will not be the first.
Israel and the Bomb:Documents
perhaps you should read the entire cross-section of american/world history, ie., both the winner's and loser's testimonies, mixed with some neutrality for flavor?
everything in life is shaded grey... while most people think of it as black and white-- case closed?... has always been a mystery to me.
quick ref: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_nuclear_weapons_development
http://www.fdrheritage.org/fdr&holocaust.htm
Ps. think of the timeline of mankind's past [and present as a matter of fact?], where in different continents... simultaneously taking place at same time intervals-- infrastructure, invention, religion, etc., [mankind's sixth sense is always blowin in the wind through telepathy/telekinesis receptors in all human's? faster than light traverses a mirrored prism image of a latent deja`vu?... in this abstract world of limit-on reality of man-made humanoid mind's?] and juxtapose that with modern history-- always, never to forget that we are but a three dimensional entity in a boundless universe of infinite dimensions.
try harder next time... with a little more data?!
Assad wasn't killing anyone, until al Qaeda miraculously appearded from Jordan?
Libya's Gaddafi was killing no-one, in fact, most of the country was doing fine, until al Qaeda showed up.
Guess who has subverted these uprising?
"America's Foreign Policy" that's WHO!!!
Really hope the Syrians did actually shoot one of the bastards down.
Bombs are so yesterday, barbaric and all of that nonchalant jazz. But, it's war, so all is fair.
Bacon is the healthiest food on the planet. Take it from this goy, eat bacon.
Bombing another country used to be considered an act of war......now it's more like routine over there.....
Bombing with crewed aircraft is still mostly considered an act of war ... now, with drones ... well, not so much ...
Somewhat crude but lethal rockets must fall into that drone category too - like if your being shot at with a less than military grade rifle - also not war.
Did you see that blast? Probably lots of broken windows. Expect a boost to global GDP. Bullish for stawks tomorrow!

It's for the children. /sarc
According to Sibel Edmonds at http://www.boilingfrogspost.com/ what is going on is that the U.S. and Russia have come to a secret agreement. Russia will back off of support for Syria and the U.S. will give the Russians a free hand to deal with the Caucasus and the Chechans. So it's bombs away!
The Russians don't need a free hand. More likely they got a heads up on Cyprus so they could get out first.
Russia doesnt need American approval to kill CIA Jihadists in the Caucasus. That job's already been done anyway.

There are a great many comments and expressions which I also find unnecessarry, racist or downright gratuitous at times, but I accept that non-violent expression of thoughts is a right even though that right may be poorly exercised. In any case, such comments serve to remind us of the kinds of things people honestly believe rightly or wrongly. We must also keep in mind that there is a possibility, however remote, that prejudiced comments may in fact carry some truth.
An alternative would be to read the main article and not bother with the comments.
I think the Nazis serve a purpose.
They remind you that they have never gone away and rather than being a historical abberation, they are a norm in a certain percent of any population.
Haters gotta hate, like the kids say.
Their hate, naturally, serves a higher moral purpose.
Nazis always have a higher moral purpose.

p.s.
Riddle me this, three days ago.
U.S. intelligence agencies traced a recent cyber intrusion into a sensitive infrastructure database to the Chinese government or military cyber warriors, according to U.S. officials.
The compromise of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers’ National Inventory of Dams (NID) is raising new concerns that China is preparing to conduct a future cyber attack against the national electrical power grid, including the growing percentage of electricity produced by hydroelectric dams. [source]
Follow coverage & confirmation up by Wired
What brings down dams? 559lbs explosives? (which is getting splashed this side of Sunday all over the conspiritard side of the net) Who released this information and why now? (internal strife between intelligence & Homeland security over who runs cyber terror slush funds is well documented). Weaving spiders come not here. Methinks the message has gotten lost along the way.

- Mohammad Talas, command of Liwa Suqour Shuhada
It's extremely interesting to see these figures together, especially as Brigadier General Salim Idris was interviewed in Turkey a week ago, so would have traveled all the way to Mengh air base to visit the front-lines. It does raise the question of the purpose of the visit, could this be a sign of a major offensive about to take place, or just a visit to boost morale?
Another interesting figure who has reportedly turned up in Syria in recent days is Lebanese Sunni Muslim cleric, Sheikh Ahmad Al-Aseer, reportedly in Qusayr, Homs [Brown Moses ~ 1st May: never forget his avatar is Bacon's Figure with Meat if you need a tip to his role. He also covered Lybia]
One more word about giving instruction as to what the world ought to be. Philosophy in any case always comes on the scene too late to give it... When philosophy paints its gloomy picture then a form of life has grown old. It cannot be rejuvenated by the gloomy picture, but only understood. Only when the dusk starts to fall does the owl of Minerva spread its wings and fly.

***anti-semitism and reflexive anti-Jewish diatribes***
I can understand that uncensored comments can be somewhat of a shock to anyone who is used to having these points of view suppressed. The MSM is so completely controlled and censored that I sometime think that ZH acts as a type of an escape valve. Many of these views are completely over the top but suppressing and censoring only make it worse. Lets hope that we can return to a greater level of free speech as exemplified by ZH and these extreme views can be modified. The best antidote to irritating and obnoxious speech is more free speech not less.
Hey ~ I have an idea... Let's tone down the rhetoric [on both sides], regardless of verity until we all just agree with each other...
~~~
At that point, within every single thread we can take it one step further and agree that we need to agree with one another even MOAR & discuss ways to go about refining the agreeing process...
That's what FIGHT CLUB is all about!

I have many sq feet of gardening & produce space, [which contain, fruits, vegetables, insects, worms, fungus, bacteria, local animals, hydration, lack of hydration ~ all reacting & counter reacting with each other, 24/7, in real time]...
I'm thinking that the day that they all start 'agreeing' with each other, the place will turn into a fucking desert...
:-))
lmao
***That's what FIGHT CLUB is all about!***
I too am a big fan of FIGHT CLUB!
i'm here for the content, but stay for the comments. I do not espouse all or even most thoughts by some posters. I simply move past the comment that offends knowing in the back of my mind that that is the price of liberty and freedom of speech. I understand your position and being of the jewish faith by some here, it must be tough to swallow. My view is that evil is evil and tying some religious moniker to it is dumb. That being said, they have that right, as do you to leave. Maybe there is some way to disable the comments? That way you get the articles but not the comments.....
The separation between an article and the comments is quite evident. Just stop scrolling down after the article if you find the comments offensive you politically correct morons.
I'm also a Jew. Fuck Israel and its parasitic war machine. But fuck anyone that tries to blame the problems of the world on one people or one nation.
This goes for all of you Jew haters, Muslim haters and goyim haters. Fuck all of you.
"fuck anyone that tries to blame the problems of the world on one people or one nation"
~~~
Yeah ~ That's exactly the sentiment that I have towards libs, in my entire lifetime, saddling me with the blame for the oppressions of:
- Women's suffrage
- Slavery
- LGBT intolerance
None of which I've ever had anything to do with...
Now ~ carry on with beating those dead horse manifestos, as well as enslaving & impoverishing the world by way of the manifestos of usury & military aggression...
"Liberals" and "Conservatives" saddled us with that blame. All of that legislative and judicial action has been a bipartisan affair these past 60-70 years. For instance, all of the original Jewish Neocons (and Neoconnery is a Jewish construct) started out as being on the "Left" and now typify the very picture of the nutjob Right. But there are now far more goy Neocons than Jewish Neocons, so Neoconnery would appear every bit the group effort that every other evil of the past 100 years would be.
The problem is that the majority of humans haven't yet figured out how to protect themselves from the 5-10% of the worst sociopaths that claim they know how to rule the rest of us. Those sociopaths use the power of the State and the military to effect their imagined claims to ownership of the world. Every people, nation and culture has their version of the minority predator. We all know these predators by their vibe, no matter their genetic or national heritage: they prefer brutality, fraud and force (government) over consent and trade (society). Government is, by its nature, an antisocial entity.
Governments, and those that believe themselves fit to wield the power, are the problem.Some things never change:
"This is a deluded generation, veiled in ignorance, that though popery and slavery be riding in upon them, do not perceive it; though I am sure that there was no man born marked by God above another; for none comes into this world with a saddle on his back, neither any booted and spurred to ride him."
-Richard Rumbold, from the scaffold, 1685
@pauldia
lol, typical reaction of the zionists, if you dont like the crimes zionists commit then you are automatically accused of being racist and antisemite.
How about i rape your mother and if you dont like it then i will accuse you of being racist and explain all your anger with simple "you just hate my ethnicity you stupid racist bitch"
@Pauldia
Whatever your silly views about equating criticisms of Israel with antisemitism, your leaving is a pity. Even more of a pity is your post decrying the whole site instead of crawling off quietly.
Have you considered that some of the more outrageous anti-jewish comments may have served the purpose for which they were intended? To provoke and incite polarity so that nobody can criticise Israel without being equated with antisemitism?
Never mind. I won't search your comments to confirm what I suspect already: a bigot with no qualms about posting crap on others, but cries foul when it is directed at him and his pet beliefs. You may search mine and find that I have criticised and when necessary defended everyone and every religion, including my own catholic background. I bid you a hearty goodbye. Come back when you can discern the difference between your head and your arse.
Paul.
Cheerio, and goodnight. Its an amazing thing this internet, you can find out so much with a few clicks of the buttons and a mouse, infact you can find out stuff what the main stream media refuses or wont publish to stem public opinion in the wrong way, infact I would go as far to say you can find out what the Isrealites are doing to the palastinians as what was done to them under the gestapo.
Truth has a funny way of floating to the surface, and no matter what you may think or believe, anti-whatever exists for a reason, I am a long held believer that you should do onto others as should be done upon yourself.
And all bankrolled and paid and bought by the Americans and my own Englishmen. ZH is the only place it seems where the truth is not censored, long live ZH and each and every bitch that posts here, you wont be missed.
Dont let the door hit you on the arse as you leave.
Worse ,they have been at it for over 65 yrs. AND THE FUCKING WORLD WATCHES!!! WTF
Lighten up, Francis.
Hells Bells, war has been going on for centuries now, there are a few times in between where too much war has taken its toll and a break is needed, then war starts all over again. Attila the Hun was paid a million dollars in gold each year by the Roman Empire just to not attack the fringes of the Empire. When Tiberius reduced Attila's payment by 2/3, Attila went back to work.
No gold, no peace said Attila.
The people of Israel have been picked on for centuries, forced to move to the Pale. Exodus and then some. Worship a Golden Calf and you become a suffering bastard. What else is new? It's an age old story.
I myself am gathering gopher wood. Got one helluva pile of it now.
Sounds like the US paying off Iraqi insurgents in 2007 to NOT attack them. Nothing new under the sun.
Inthemix96 thread jack special.
Its tony B.Liars 60th birthday week this week folks. Heres my 60th thanks tony.
In just 11 years this man without any obsticles or oposition changed the face of Britain by using just one word, you oppose 5 million mainly deprived, un-educated, third-world, non-intergrating, country changing, rights demanding, and inhospitable to the nation they came to as 'Racists'. You didnt like your country being changed before your very eyes and walking down a high street in any major town here, you think you are in Mumbi, just to 'Rub The Rights Nose In It', you're 'Racist'.
You saddled the country with just under 1 fucking trillion pounds of debt for various projects and bankers, and to pay for the fuckers you imported.
You left with a legacy under dubious circumstances, and out right lies of invading another soverign country and killed at least 1.5 million innocents, 500,000 of them children. All on a fucking lie, and the death of the very honourable Dr David Kelly, who opposed your pyscopathic plans. And that doesnt include the thousands of innocent soldiers who died because of your damn fucking lies.
You increased the public sector by some estimates of 3 million workers and saddled them onto the backs of the tax-paying private sector workers with un-payable pensions, benefits and rights. You impossed such fucking idiot positions such as 5-a-day co-ordinators on 30,000 a year and a ford mondeo with bullet proof gold plated pensions, just to make sure we eat fruit or veg (look this one up, it is fucking unbelievably true).
And the last bit that makes me laugh the hardest you cunt, you have left this country ruined, a shell of what it was, bankrupt, divided and morally destroyed. If I ever meet you B.Liar, rest assured if I can get through your tax-payer funded security detail to the tune of some 500,000 grand a year, you will make me famous.
You are a sociopath of the highest order, a bought and paid out piece of fucking shit, if justice should be served you should be in front of the Hague indicted on war crimes, and acts against Humanity, dont think for one minute that converting to Christianity will save your evil, twisted warped soul because it wont. Hell is waiting for you with open arms as you achieved in just 11 years no human thought possible, you destroyed a country, and you revelled in it you nefarious, deeply hated cunt.
I hope you never know another minutes piece again in whats left of your miserable, security guarded, J6M paid for life you fucking swine against decency, you are hated with something verging on 'Reverance' B.Liar, I hope, and indeed will have a glass, nigh a full bottle of fine scotch when I find out you finally got yours you nation wrecking, war-mongering piece of fucking shit. Enjoy this one B.Liar, I only hope it is your last.
Rant Off.
+100%.
Bravo! Rant of the Year! If there was ever a Nobel Rant Prize, you'd be a shoo-in for it. Congratulations!
Cheers dog,
I hate this bastard with every fibre of my being.
I woulds do this cunt in for the sake of humanity.
mix96, I sarcastically told a British Naval officer in a bar in Sicily years ago that Mr Blair would ok a US attack on Canada if Bush wanted it. He said "Why would the US attack Canada?". I said "That's the fuckin' point, man".
I think to get a Nobel he needs to go back and quote Keynes(or maybe MLK Jr) somewhere, at least that's how it works in the USA ,
Nice one. I wish your rant made me feel better, but it just tightened the frustration I've harboured against that bastard for years. I promised myself I would not get angry about Bliar years ago after I heard some psychobabble on tv about how anger makes you a victim, and I refuse to be one because of his kind. It sort of works, and I recommend it.
Instead of anger, I try (and fail sometimes) to direct every filthy fact about him and his kind with cold detachment to the public consciousness. But we all have our own ways, and as long as he spends the rest of his life in a dank prison, I'd be happy.
Right on my friend...
With a criminal and morally bankrupt track record like that, Mr Blair will be exactly the right person to become the unelected fascist President of the United States of Europe. He'll feel at home there when he's not flying around the world in 'Blair One'...
Another fucking war these heebs are going to drag us into. Obama may get my support simply because he knows how to tell these people to shut the fuck up and go mind their own problems.
tedstr, your as dumb as a box of rocks ..obuma has droned and overthowned how many in the last 4 yrs?? got gitmo?
I hear ya, but when push comes to shove Obama is NOT going to tell them to piss off. You only have to watch any of his spineless, grovelling speeches to the likes of AIPAC to understand why.
I tried to watch one of those but it was so sickening that I couldn't make it to the end without throwing up.
Admiral Ahkbar
It's a trap!
If the Russian air defence in Syria is as good as they say, it would be a lot more than one Israeli jet shot down. We'll have to see what the truth is as the weeks go by.
I am thoroughly sick of this. We had a couple of weeks of sarin/chemical weapons bullshit in the media, then this blatant act of war on an already troubled nation. If that doesn't illustrate the complete control of mainstream media by zionist factions and their sympathisers, I don't know what will convince people that everything they see, hear and read on the idiot box is tainted.
I know there are decent Jews out there as horrified and disgusted by Israeli zionists as I am. Can't you speak out? Can't we all get together and condemn those who lie, steal and murder as a matter of national policy? Can't we force those who constantly support war into shame and ignominy? Can we, for once and for all, attack and destroy the one country with the proven record of genocide, apartheid, breaking UN resolutions, murdering UN personnel and refugees, building illegal settlements, making nuclear weapons, and conducting the most vile covert campaigns against the West that have cost untold number of lives? All the while pretending to be our allies and stealing billions of our currency in "aid".
Can we all agree on those facts and stop these scums' ability to ever harm us and others in the future? This isn't about race or religion. This is right versus wrong, plain and simple. The powerful zionist bankers, industrialists, politicians, their minions, their servants, and others who benefit from them. Versus the rest of humanity.
We - the great mass of the 99%- may be far from perfect, but by everything we hold dear, at least we do not want to profit from death and destruction, nor delight in human suffering.
Hey buddy you need a window put in yer stomach so you can see.. Lets see Alawite Assad kills 70,000 Sunni Moslems; Sunni Saddam killed 1++ million Shia persians, and gets 1+ million Iraqi Sunni and Shia killed in the process, then he killed 20,000 Sunni Kuwaitis; Pakistani Sunnis kill Hindus and other Kaffirs, Iraqi Sunnis kill Iraqi Shia and vice versa, Kurds get killed by Sunni Turks and Syrians, as well as Shia Persians. Sunni Gazans kill other Sunnis whoo are more or less radical than them, Sunni Nigerian Boko Haram kill Christian Nigerians; Palestinian Sunnis presecute Christian Palestinians and Lebanese, Sunni Libyans kill everybody. Then a motley crew of jews gets statehood in 1948 after 3000 years of nationhood and carves out an 8000 sq/mi area with no oil, 400,000 jews owning 40,000 sq/mi of arab land get booted out of their countries, everythong stolen from them and flee to Israel, and this is the best you got? I guess we do control the world, and cause all the problems. you are the 99%...
Is that how you really see the world? "Our murders and our genocide and our apartheid, and our thieves don't matter because somewhere/somewhen else in history others did the same"?
I should feel sorry for the mentally ill, but all I feel is disgust.
"Then a motley crew of jews"
Correction: Then a motley crew of khazars.
Whole different animal.
arrgh I hate zionist supporeter double entries!

Personally I hope Russia does get involved. But on the other I know full well the US and Israel are stupid enough to engage them as well. Sure is nice to have a handful of crazies get us all blown up.
Have to wonder why O (Kingfish) would want to invade Syria. He can't afford to invade Utah.

Picasso captured that so well. Even included a ray of hopium in the mix ala light bulb. Orwell volunteered to fight facisism an jumped into the Spanish frey, caught a bullet in the throat, was discharged went home. Picked up a rooster and goats, went back to the land for a bit.
