Russia Reignites The Proxy War: Putin Offers "Complete Support" To Iraq Prime Minister Scorned By Obama
Two days ago, before it was formalized that the US tacitly, if not explicitly, now supports the removal of the Iraqi Prime Minister whom it itself had helped elect, we summarized the geopolitical tensions and "national interests" in Iraq, which is shaping up to be a proxy war that makes last year's Syrian escapade pale by comparison, as follows:
The situation in Iraq, already a jumble of domestic sectarian violence, is now pitting virtually all major (and regional) international players against each other as well. There is:
- US which tacitly supports Iran intervention in the region, but may have suddenly cooled in its support of Maliki despite sending naval and troop forces in the country after partially evacuating its embassy
- Saudi Arabia which wants to remain friendly with the US but is antagonistic to the Iraq regime, is potentially aiding the ISIS forces, and clearly refuses to allow Iran entrance in Iraq
- Iran, which has suddenly become America's best friend in the region, which is willing to enter Iraq and protect its holy sites
- Syria, whose president is sitting back amused at last year's failed campaign by the US to remove him from power, and whose army is at a stalemate with the local US-armed and funded rebels
- Qatar, which is supporting the Syrian rebels, but so far has not made its stance clear on Iraq. Like Saudi, it too may be indirectly backing ISIS
- Jordan, which is a close friend the US, and which may have hosted ISIS in a secret base on its territory with the US instructing the jihadist group according to an unconfirmed report
- Turkey, which is on constant alert to Kurdish escalation across the border, the same Kurds which now have far more leverage courtesy of ISIS crushing the Iraq army in the north and handing over Kurds access to oil fields in the north.
- And of course Russia: because while Putin clearly benefits from rising crude prices, it is his Lukoil that is developing (and investing vast amounts of money in) the vast Iraqi West Qurna-2 oil field. It is not clear how he would feel about it falling into ISIS hands.
It was the bolded text that was of biggest interest because as we noted the next day, when discussing the next steps for ISIS, we said that "One wonders how long until the mercenary force finds its latest major backer, because for all the western, US-led intervention, both Russia and China are oddly missing from the scene. We expect that to change soon."
Because clearly one can't have a global proxy war without China, and certainly without Russia.
Well, we said we expected Russia's conspicuous absence to "change soon", and so it did: within just 24 hours. Because apparently all Putin was waiting for was for Obama to pick sides (i.e., not Maliki) before the Russian leader made it clear whom he sides with. US, helpfully obliged yesterday morning when we also reported that "US Slams Its Former Iraq Puppet: "The Maliki Government, Candidly, Has Got To Go"."
So what does Putin - who as a reminder is heavily invested in Iraq' massive West Qurna-2 oil field via Lukoil - do? Why announce his undying support for Maliki, of course, and as AP reported, the former KGB spy offered Iraqi premier Nuri al-Maliki Russia's total backing for the fight against fighters who have swept across the country, as well as his full support for the embattled prime minister.
More:
Russian President Vladimir Putin has spoken by phone to Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, expressing Moscow’s support for his action against the militant offensive.
The Kremlin said in a statement that al-Maliki informed Putin on Friday about his government’s steps to combat the “terrorist groups in the north of the country.” It added that the insurgency threatens security of the entire region.
Putin confirmed Russia’s “full support for the Iraqi government’s action to quickly free the territory of the republic from terrorists,” the Kremlin said, adding that Putin and al-Maliki also discussed bilateral cooperation.
Putin’s expression of support for the embattled Iraqi prime minister comes as al-Maliki’s rivals have mounted a campaign to force him out of office, with some angling for support from Western backers and regional heavyweights.
And just like in Syria from 2012 to 2013, the chessboard is once again set, with a regional middle-east conflict, this time in Iraq, merely serving as the proxy staging ground in which the Iraqi PM, once an obedient US puppet but now an enemy of Saudi Arabia and thus the US, "simply has to go" in the words of Dianne Feinstein, has suddenly become the fulcrum issue behind yet another soon to escalate conflict between Russia and the US.
One thing is certain: the more the US (and Saudi Arabia, and Qatar) pushes for Maliki's ouster, the more involved Russia will become with its offers of support and bilateral cooperation. And if the Syrian fiasco (for John Kerry) is any indication, Russia is about to expand its "national interest" sphere of influence by one more country.

American military?
"The most curious thing about our four defeats in Fourth Generation War—Lebanon, Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan—is the utter silence in the American officer corps. Defeat in Vietnam bred a generation of military reformers, men such as Col. John Boyd USAF, Col. Mike Wyly USMC, and Col. Huba Wass de Czege USA, each of whom led a major effort to reorient his service. Today, the landscape is barren. Not a military voice is heard calling for thoughtful, substantive change. Just more money, please.
Such a moral and intellectual collapse of the officer corps is one of the worst disasters that can afflict a military because it means it cannot adapt to new realities. It is on its way to history’s wastebasket. The situation brings to mind an anecdote an Air Force friend, now a military historian, liked to tell some years ago. Every military, he said, occasionally craps in its own mess kit. The Prussians did it in 1806, after which they designed and put into service a much improved new model messkit, through the Scharnhorst military reforms. The French did it in 1870, after which they took down from the shelf an old-model messkit—the mass, draft army of the First Republic—and put it back in service. The Japanese did it in 1945, after which they threw their mess kit away, swearing they would never eat again. And we did it in Korea, in Vietnam, and now in four new wars. So far, we’ve had the only military that’s just kept on eating."

You lose any credibilty when you compare Lebanon, Somalia, Iraq, and Afghanistan and the American military response and role in each. Ridiculous set of comparisons that make no sense. You could group Lebanon and Somalia and ditto Iraq and Afghanistan but even then you run into historical problems.
You MrZinoBizzaro, with zero cred cannot, with an credibility determine who is w/o cred. Get it?
Your sponsor needs to demand a refund.
There is a very large difference between the capability of projecting power and another to stay loyal. Look at Maliki and Karzi. We have installed them and then called for their removal. How many uprisings have we fomented and abandoned? US foreign policy can change with a single negative headline. Who wants somebody like that backing you?
Looking at that last two hundred years of US history ,the only constant has
been the doublecross in every commitment.Its amazing that anybody would deal with
Uncle Scam,but they do.The Brits were no different, just more subtle.
Let's face it, Winnie, we were stiffed royally by the US at Bretton Woods and over Suez. I hope they find some perspective when it happens to them.
LOL! The US has become a feral country thanks to libs like you. A third world joke of subhumans with EBT cards at McDonalds.
We haven't seen nuthin' yet. All those illegals coming in with all their diseases . . . And the only hope of future employment is MS-13.
Subhumans?
Let me think, where have we heard that before?
.
We heard it from King Yatzi Yatsenyuk himself on the web site of Ukraine's US embassy:
http://www.globalresearch.ca/the-ukraine-genocide-and-its-cheerleaders/5...
But hey, why not? He's just being 'american'. All correct-thinking people in the 'West' know that the Russians are subhumans. That is why correct thinkers are quick to demonize the thug Putin, even though he was right to oppose a US-led attack on Syria. That is why correct thinkers are angry over Russia's invasion and annexation of Crimea, even though neither actually happened. That is why correct thinkers dismiss as pure propaganda the reports from Russian media whose reporters risk kidnapping, imprisonment, torture, and even their lives to be on the ground in Ukraine. That is why correct thinkers dismiss as unimportant the war crimes and ethnic cleansing being perpetrated by the US-directed goons in Kiev. After all, the victims are Russian, so they are not really even human. Right?

America is like a aged pit bull ---- all but one of her teeth have fallen out --- and that last one is rotten and wiggly....
When she bites Putin just laughs at the toothless hag :)
I wonder if ISIS starts getting its ass kicked in Iraq, whether the US would be forced to drop the charade and protect its proxy army, aka, ISIS... this is probably what Putin is pushing for.
What charade? It's all well documented, except for CNN. Just ask John McCain and his selfie with his ISIS friends:

Pretty sure that is the California state flag under the middle of the big X on the wall of enemies.
Are you saying ISIS hates Jerry Brown? Or his sister who works for Goldman-Sachs?
"Ms. Brown, 65, the sister of California Gov.-elect Jerry Brown, currently leads Goldman Sachs' public sector and infrastructure business for the West region out of Goldman's Los Angeles office. She will move to Chicago for the new post."
http://www.chicagobusiness.com/article/20101215/NEWS01/101219914/kathlee...
"As a main theme of his campaign for governor, Jerry Brown has attacked Wall Street bankers for fueling the nation's economic troubles.
But he has avoided mentioning Goldman Sachs, the bank that is a recent focus of scrutiny, even though it is one of the biggest liabilities for Meg Whitman, the leading Republican candidate for governor, who sat on the company's board.
Brown, a Democrat and California's attorney general, also has connections to Goldman, which was charged with civil fraud last week by the Securities and Exchange Commission. The links are his sister and a complicated financing deal made by the city of Oakland, where he served as mayor for eight years."
"No matter how you look at it, Jerry and his sister were on both ends of a bad deal for taxpayers, and Goldman Sachs pocketed millions," Bounds said.
"Besides being mayor, and appointing the city administrator and finance officials who oversaw city borrowing, Brown was president of the Oakland Joint Powers Financing Authority, albeit in a nonvoting capacity, when it renegotiated the deal and repaid Goldman's debt in 2005. His campaign spokesman, Sterling Clifford, said Brown had nothing do with any of it."

Things have gone very well, thank you.
Vietnam was a complete success from the Bankster perspective. The unrepayable borrowing the war required, including funding for the War on Poverty, to keep the home front (somewhat) quiet led to Nixon dumping the Breton Woods system and printable fiat backed by nothing, aka, the ultimate Bankster wet dream
Repeating that tired old canard that is demonstrably false...
It had to do with oil imports rocketing after the US production peaked...
Foreigners were not funding the modest deficits in the late '60 and '70s...
The US is only interested in putting you on a serving tray for Sunni fundamentalists.
With fava beans and a nice chianti, I hope.
Does this make our leaders serial killers? Or just your run-of-the-mill genocidal maniacs? Hard to tell.
I'd take the US in a heartbeat...
Maybe you should talk to the Kurds about that first.
As of the past year or so, the Kurds have gotten on the Iran team.
Those pipelines project a TON of power. And Russia doesn't have to spent a trillion dollars to exercise that power.
Flakmeister, the bottom quark of ZH
More like the bottom decile.
Really? Look at a map lately bubba...look at the Russian, China, India land mass...now where do they need to project power?
So somehow, stuck in that cave of yours, you have missed Putin's deals with Iran, China, and other countries, switching from purchasing oil and commodities in the US Dollar to other currencies, and commodity swaps?
Yup, you do realize this latest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles film was a re-make, right?
And a damn poor remake at that!
Those deals are literally a drop in the bucket..
And last I checked the Yuan was basically pegged to the dollar....
What do you think happens if/when the Yuan is allowed to freely float?

The 300..... good movie. They all ended up dead in the end.
Damn Doc!
Easy with the spoilers.
In the ORIGINAL script i.e the Real Battle the 300 Lakedemonians KNEW, they were going to die. They did NOT FEAR DEATH. And when you know you are going to die, You fight in a different manner. Being free and without fear, is alien to Modern Man
There is much truth to this.
Of course, die for Allah and you get virgins. Die for Wall Street and you're just fucked.
Screw dying for virgins.

Before you decide just remember.... with so much oil at stake "Your corner" will eventually become "Their corner."..
This "announcement" seems more bluster to me than a real effort on Putin's part.
If Putin really wanted to bitchslap US policy interests, he'd buy that Kurdish oil (in Rubles) at a premium over the asking price and ensure future purchases.
He's just tenderizing the chicken properly before roasting it.
These are moments to savor. Reading about this in history books in the future is nothing compared to living it (and writing all the good parts yourself).
what history do you see

you see what you see is what you see

but what do the history book bbc chatham house jewish types see and what have they seen.
what is important is what is written and what is shown.

what did that little boy see in the dark oak covered room with the drunken fat man stinking of whiskey and cohiba smokes.
did he see anything or was his rape and strangulation all a dream within a dream.
Tony Winston was the queen's cousin and a Rothschild
Putin doesn't do bluster,he leaves that for Obozo ,and Kerry.
He thinks long ,and hard, before engaging his mouth, a lesson the
US 'leadership" could learn from.
My guess is Russian advisors are already in country.
Kerry?
"This was very unpleasant and surprising for me. We talk to them (the Americans), and we assume they are decent people, but he is lying and he knows that he is lying. This is sad." Putin referring to Kerry.
Well. . . .John Forbes Withrop Dudley Kerry had plenty of practise during the years his family summered at their family estate in France when he was growing up.
And at that expensive boarding school he attended.
And at Yale, during all those Skull & Bones bull sessions.
Yup, a lotta practise. . .
Sargent, if you're going to play around with the clown's name and leave the phony family name / surname intact, something is wrong with your approach.
The last name is Khon (appropriate enough). I'm an Irishman and I resent the affinity fraud.
Will some tribe member please explain why all the name changing? Nudleman / Nuland comes to mind. Are you ashamed of who you are? Your ancestors? Or is this the Mossad motto in action "By way of deception, thou shall wage war."?
Who are Kerry/Khon and Nuland/Noodleman waging war with?
CH1 reach across the chasm and explain this phenomena. Thanks
Putin may think long and hard before commiting to action but what do you call all those tough-guy pictures he uses to promote himself?
Putin is as full of himself as any other politician and is certainly not above puffery.
Regarding Putin having Rooskie agents in country - of that I have no doubt.
Come back when you can actually add something to the conversation
Er, what the fuck are you adding to the conversation?
I addressed a comment I disagreed with and supported my perspective with a concrete example.
Assertion: Putin doesn't' "Bluster."
My response: "Yes he does." Case in point - Putin's proclivity for portraying himself like a gay bear daddy.
In addition, I agreed with that poster's comment regarding Russian advisors in Iraq. I also agreed that Putin thinks before opening his pie-hole.
All of this should also be considered in the context of my earlier post regarding the potential for Russia to purchase the 1/2 price oil stored in that Kurdish tanker that we've flagged as being off-limits to the world.
How is that not adding to the conversation? - especially in light of the comment's relationship to the greater issue regarding the significance of Putin's "support" of Iraq.
I don't care, in Project Mayhem you better be able to accept the breakage of a few eggs.
Ah, the Pat Tillman/SEAL Team 6 op plan. Yes, yes you are right.
"You prefer Putin or Obama in your corner?"
I prefer Obama, so I can turn around and punch him right in the nuts.
Nuts? You mean ovaries

Russia and China back Iran. Iran is backing the Shia Iraq gov't because they do not want a Saudi/Israeli/USA funded Sunni ISIS at their border. this is WWIII.
This is a repeat of the start to WWII with Russia starring as Germany and China starring as the Soviet Union. It will seem as though Russia and China are nearly allied at first but that will only last until the bear is fully in the trap that has been set for it. In another 30 to 50 years China will get the same treatment as the Central Planners of the Central Banksters work their way to a One World Utopia. They are derranged while we will simply suffer for it...
In the NWO plans China figures as Austro Hungary...while Russia still features as...Russia.
Please refrain unless you can add something intelligible to the conversation. Even a bot should be able to do this
If the world is a chessboard, the CIA/SA/Mossad Deep State has just made a *really* bad move, as in "major blunder".
1) Only a fool would still believe that ISIS is really "off the reservation". They are firmly under the control of the Deep State, and what has happened in Iraq was planned a LONG time ago, with ISIS/ISIL being trained in Jordan, Turkey, and perhaps Guantanamo by the CIA/SA/Mossad to do EXACTLY what they are doing in Iraq right now. Any "surprise" or "disappointment" is pure theatre. Watch the actions of the US, not their public statements. All their real actions have been to the benefit of ISIS (e.g. get rid of Maliki, feign no airstrikes because the US public are against them, etc).
2) The whole bit of US overtures to Iran is misdirection to get some control over Iran so as to protect ISIS. Very little out of Iran itself (they have probably been offered something under the table to acquiese but its a poisoned payoff) and I don't think they are buying, just as Maliki didn't buy into it...
3) Meethinks SA is protesting too much about them being against ISIS - the key from SA is demanding "no outside intervention" e.g. Iran. SA is terrified that Iran will realize just how weak the CIA/SA/Mossad hand just played really is.
4) Putin HAS realized how weak a move this is: ISIS/ISIL other than scaring Iraqi soldiers throught beheading videos, are militarily weak and will get their clocks cleaned against any foes with just a little backbone - already proven against some Iraqi military elements that actually fought back, and up in the Kurdish territories. Putin has just made a countermove to ISIS which helps Syria, and separatists in Ukraine in one stroke. The ISIS/ISIL move was weak because it overextends the US Deep State significantly (and weakens the US moves in Syria at least since those assets are now in Iraq, not Syria)
5) One of the big problems Putin *had* in Syria was logistics. How do you get goods into Syria in large numbers without getting by Turkey? If there is support from Maliki, logistics to Syria are no longer a problem since they can get to Iraq via Iran, and to Syria via Iraq. So now Assad has the possibility of a pincer movement against the foreign mercenaries in Syria.
The ISIS gambit will IMHO go down as the most stupid move imaginable by the Zionist morons in Washington...
Nice job and analysis.
http://www.atimes.com/atimes/Middle_East/MID-01-200614.html
Pepe Escobar also suggests this whole ISIS thing is a trap for Iran and Iran is not taking the bait.
Others have also said it may be an opening for Obama to try to bomb Syria.
I agree with you and hope that Syria gets ISIS in a pincer and destroys many jihadis McCain Murderers in Syria.

Good concise read.
It's on.
It's all about redrawing sovereign borders. Here's the new map the NWO wants:
Plans for Redrawing the Middle East: The Project for a “New Middle East”http://www.globalresearch.ca/plans-for-redrawing-the-middle-east-the-pro...
The only question is if Russia and China approves, which apparently - at this point - they don't.
Certainly no one gives a damn what the locals think. Same as it ever was.
Very interesting read as all the major and minor SOBs are there -also the comments.
This is the opening of the Nostradamus prediction of a unification of the Levant. It is all coming together as soon the forces of Iraq, Iran, Lebanon and Syria unite to form a union. Bad news for the west.
100% spot on.
This strategy only works if you get U.S. forces back in the game and on the ground to protect their ISIS front while agressively extracting concessions or a territorial division from Al Maliki.
With either Iran or Russia in the game ISIS is doomed unless they have another plan to spring a trap (false flag) on Iran.
Not only would ISIS be finished in Iraq but since the MSM have been scaring the sheeple about the perils of Al Qaeda/ISIS... there is NO reason that Iraqi/Iranian National Guard or even Russian forces could not fight or strategically bomb ISIS remnants all the way back across the border into Syria giving Assad the final victory as Americans applaud and Obama/SA/Israel silently fume.
"Pantsed" again.
Let's not forget the Russia-Iran tie-up against the petro dollar. Obama (and his sponsors) would love to disrupt that, but with Iran offering support to the Shia leader in Ira, Putin is free to take that side too, so coincidentally giving US/ISIS a real war on two fronts -3 if you include the Kurds - they cannot handle. Also, the Kurds have no love for Turkey, the US/Nato placeman in the area. Putin, again looks like coming out ahead in all this. Finally, guess what - Al Qaeda got started through Bin Ladens time fighting the USSR in Afghanistan, so its all slotting in quite nicely.
And oddly, enough, Americans should be outraged that America is still backing the Sunnis (who bombed our embassies in Africa, who bombed our destroyer off the coast of Yemen, who attacked our country on 9/11 --- according to the official Cheney/Bush conspiracy --- and attacked us elsewhere) --- but since most effing Ameritards are too damn stupid to ever familiarize themselves with the voting records of the scum they continue to elect as senators and representatives, what do you expect?
The only logical outcome of the Bush Crime Family's illegal invasion of Iraq was a Shi'a superstate, composed of Iran, Iraq and perhaps others.
The other day, Hillary Clinton was in town on her book tour, selling her book. All those who bought her book voted with their money:
Against American workers and in support of offshoring American jobs (one of Hillary's main supporters, while a senator, was the Indian jobs offshoring company, the Tata Consultancy, which she would later invite to open an office in Buffalo, NY, to "improve their economy" ROFL to the nth power!),
And for war and more war!
Sunnis bombed a US destroyer off Yemen? Then who bombed the USS Liberty?
Slap dick? This is on par with the average geo political expert talking about the misdeeds of Dr. Assad in Syria wihtout being able to find it on a map. Russia, China Iraq, Iran and Syria as strong political allies would be a very solid force economically and militarily. When can I move?

The Syrian Dirtlump

Yes, and thanks to US miscalculation, it looks like pulling together.
Sad to say, but some of these doods love slapping dick . . . (Not these muff diver).

Putin recognizes that the US/Israeli/Saudi sponsored mayhem in Syria and Iraq is ultimately targeted against Iran.
Backing a Shiite government in Iraq seems the logical, though rather unpalatable (with Maliki), thing for Russia to do. It at least somewhat forces the US to either curtail its support for the jihadist extremists or clearly reveal that it is the US and Saudis who are promoting the sectarian conflict..
Why do you say unpalatable?
Maliki is the elected leader of a Shia country on the Shia Cresent, sitting on maybe a quarter of the world's crude.
That's fantastic for Putin. Team USA, by shunning Maliki, left the door open for Vladomirich. How immensely stupid for Team DC!!
In other news, the Noodleman-Kagan Frankenstein monster, aka, the choco-porn king oligarch of Ukraine, just ordered a unilateral cease fire.
I did not say an alliance with Iraq, even a rump Iraq, was unpalatble.
But Maliki has baggage, (torture, corruption, assassination, a "quisling" relationship with foreign invaders). Many grievances of Sunnis and others are legitimate. He is no white hat.
He's being friends with the lawfully elected leader of Iraq.
Figure it out, dumbass.
Being friends with Obama gets you tossed under the bus when you are no longer useful.
The bama pension plan has drawbacks
Funny, I don't remember the media prefacing every reference of former president Herbert Walker Bush as "former CIA head spook"
But we do hear the Corporate McMedia universally (and uniformly) refer to the attack Sunnis of ISIS as "militants" --- WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
But we do hear the Corporate McMedia universally (and uniformly) refer to the Iraqi army as "melting away" --- WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Easy to see who all is receiving the same script!

There is no checkmate. There is no chess game.
There is only oil, and Lukoil has huge contracts in Iraq.
You're forgetting water.
Yeah but that's all in Libya.
Sounds like Putin is trying to play the game that the Americans invented...
It's more of a British game....we came by it honestly
When its comes to oil being involved the Brits have nothing on the Americans...
Better put down your comic book and check your history book, Nancy.
Oil, Opium, divide and conquer ...whatever.
We learned from the best....
No real argument from me...
Hence the "special relationship"
"Better call Saul", you're on a roll.

Yet the common viewpoint on here seems to be that there is a secret cabal that is magically able to control and direct the world in what ever way they want.
A giant chunk of the world. They're working on the rest, and it looks like an uphill battle.
But they're 'winning' at home, no doubt about it. They may not get the whole enchilada, but they certainly are getting their way with the homeland serfs.
Now watch for an accident to throw the match into the other court for the next round...
omg omg omg Putin story! *masturbates furiously!*
Anyone else think Maliki is going to be "Yanukovitched?"
That games over. That hand's been played. Not enough cred, energy, time for more of the same.
Instead watch for a new trick ...
these guys really know their stuff. they even run this game successfully on supposedly awake people like the readers of ZH.
time and time again they use proxy aggression to pit one group of little guys against another group of little guys while the puppet masters pop the corks of champagne, and congratulate each other.
no one in putin's or obama's family will die in these wars. but they sure don't mind having everyone else die for their power plays. they view us as rabid, stupid dogs who deserve what they get.
Fucking Surreal.
Hey I don't know what you're all talking about - I didn't hear about this on ABC, CBS, NBC, MSNBS, CNBC, Fox News, Bloomberg, PBS, CNN, CNNHL.... this clearly never happened. From what I've been repeatedly told, this is all Bush's fawlt and Obama is too busy doing god's work bringing the subjects..er.. Iraqi Citizens back into order from chaos. Any slight gain made in Iraq will be immediately and heavily credited by Obama/The White House/MSM/Snarky Liberal Blogs for the forseeable future, complete with freudean transference saying everyone else is a racizzt, ant-LGBTQI[...], narrow-minded thug.
SO THERE.
So God's Work = bogeying your way through the back 9?
HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA HA
Putin is fucking the US again. I love this man!
Aren't you violating the spirit of your avatar?
Nope. Russia is not respecting the US's 'authority'.
But you're respecting Vlad's while claiming one shouldn't.
Or is there a definition of "No" that I'm unaware of?
I'm admiring him. Not the same.
So... a bromance without respect?
Not sure I know how to respond to that.
I expect Crom would approve,
You don't have to be a Putin fan to enjoy watching Obama getting bitchslapped.
"Are you my Bitch?"
"Yes, Vlad, ohhhhh don't stop. Reggie has nothing on you, my Russian Bear!"
Oh please, oh please, oh please....
Take out Saudi Arabia and Israel too...while you are in the neighborhood.
And give Iran a 12 pack of nukes. That will make McCain soil his adult diaper proper.
It's estimated by the world's best researchers on the subject, that due to DU exposure, the men of Israel will be completly infertile by 2020. Notice the big push in the EU to terrify the Jews and get them to move to Israel - to get their dosage and maybe continue the lines for another 10 years. That doesn't include the women that either miscarry, or babies that are deformed and aborted.
Israel is over in less than two decades, due to massive DU use by the US and NATO allies. Eugenics? You decide.
Now, no DU has been used directly in Israel. This is all from winds bringing it in from Iraq, Kuwait and Syria. Imagine the infertilityj/Infant Mortality Rates in those countries. Much, much worse than Israel. No significant studies are done in those countries because no one anywhere cares what happens to them.
And what DU is doing to the Middle East, Fukushima is doing to Japan and North America. Look at the destruction wrought by DU in the Middle East, and know the future of the United States.
If you have any doubts, have some of your hair tested for radionuclides. They'll find plenty.

Link to back up a single assertion made here?
From the Palestine Telegraph:
Today we see for the first time a better insight into a problem that we have always known has existed with Israel. The Palestine Telegraph reported on this sperm count some time ago but now we see more information becoming available. We also drew attention to the fact that when Israel started using US Depleted Uranium Weapons back in the war with Egypt and followed by the conflict with Lebanon and Gaza it nuked itself.

There's much more on the Net, if you're interested.
Fuck Israel, crazy assholes!
The funny thing is, those unhappy, irradiated fools living there think they're winning. They think they are the chosen people, when in reality, they are only the chosen sheeple, useful like all sheeple, until they're not.

Well, our foreign policy is working out well.
Can't understand why everyone hates the US so much?
pods
i think that it's working as intended. just not to the benefit of the people of America and the world.
And what exactly would be complete support?
A couple thousand re-furbished AK-47s with some surplus T-34s reclaimed from the Pryapet Marshes?
Hilarious....
Try South Ossetia on Brawndo, troll boy.
