Invasion Imminent: Jordan Stations "Thousands" Of Troops On Iraq Border
A week after the release of a clip with sported professionally produced, near Hollywood-level editing and effects, showing the brutal burning of a Jordanian pilot hostage, Jordan announced it has deployed "thousands" of ground troops to its border with Iraq as it ramps up a campaign against ISIS militants, two Jordanian government officials told NBC News on Tuesday.
As NBC reports, the troops were sent to prevent the infiltration of ISIS fighters into Jordan and as a show of force, according to the sources who spoke on condition of anonymity. In other words, what would formerly have been seen as an overt act of territorial incursion, or as it is also known, a sovereign invasion, is now interpreted as a defensive act, one seeking to "prevent" infiltration by the same ISIS, that only exists due to US intervention in Syria in 2013.
Jordan's King Abdullah last week threatened to make ISIS pay for the death of Muath al-Kasasbeh's after video of the military pilot's murder emerged. He vowed to wage a "harsh" war against ISIS "because this terrorist organization is not only fighting us, but also fighting Islam and its pure values."
Abdullah also pledged to hit ISIS militants "hard in the very center of their strongholds."
One wonders why the need for the land grab, pardon, defensive incursion, when as previously reported, Jordan has already unleashed up to 20 missions per day by Jordanian jets targeting the militant group's positions in Syria.
"We are determined to wipe them from the face of the Earth," Maj. Gen. Mansour al-Jobour told NBC News on Sunday, citing the need for "revenge" after al-Kasabeh's killing.
That much is clear. The question is what else is Jordan "determined" to do once it has military boots on the ground first in Iraq and soon, inevitably, in Syria which as a reminder, is what this is all about.

Some live clucking chickens are fixin to be crapped!
USSA is moving another chess piece on the geopolitical board, after getting blocked in the Ukraine. Gotta steal that Iranian oil, somehow.
Is this good for American stocks?
Everything is good for American stocks.
Picking sides in a civil war should not be good for stocks, just sayin.
Boots on the oil.
World War 3 for World Peace.
I actually think this is a smart move on the part of the Jordanians. They have allot of skin in this game, it is taking place in their neighborhood, thus they should have a say on how it plays out.
Strategically the Jordanians have no interest here beyond keeping their own soverienty. We ought to expect them to operate some tier one forces in Iraq, along with ours most likely, as well as air assets. Their point will be to keep the ISIS thugs on their heels and support the Iraqi's along the shared border. The Iraqi's in western Iraq are Sunni and aren't getting any support from Bagdad (neither are the Kurds in the north). The Iraqi gub'ment won't do anything to help Jordan because they are scared little shiites taking thier orders from the Iranians.
If this sounds terribly complicated it has only been made so by our blundering involvements since about 2003. This administration is as bad as the previous admin's compiling one stupid decision upon another. It is a wonder we aren't shooting nukes at each other!
God help US because we seem determined to create a cluster that only divine intervention can fix!
One additional item. Behind the scenes, it is a lead pipe cinch, that the IDF is assisting Jordan, as well as the Saudi's. These players have allot of assets and a very close relationship with the Jordanian Crown.
They really don't need US, the locals could handle it if we could just stop doing stupid things to make it worse!
Maybe for Raytheon and Boeing but it'll keep the USD alive for a bit longer than expected, keep stacking PMs bitchezzz!
Cue Admiral Ackbar.
Just some more sabre rattling, that's all. Jordan ain't gonna do shit, it's the rich Gulf states, Iran and the US that set the agenda.

Why Hasn't the USA adopted this policy?
That would be bad for business.
"Why Hasn't the USA adopted this policy?" -- because we just like wasting resources, massive capital mis-allocation and keeping young men and women DISTRACTED from the ongoing theft.
Many of us are former military and have been asking this question for 20+ years. War is not to be taken lightly. If you are going to commit to war (which should be a rare thing), then commit to fucking war and eliminate 70% or more of your enemy's population. People get in line pretty fucking quick after that. Anything less is just massive capital and resource mis-allocation.
You're thinking about this wrong, LoP. What we need to do is produce a high quality film -- with good lighting, a 3-camera placement, the works -- of banksters burning a sweet college co-ed to death for missing her second revolving credit payment which she had opened so as to buy books for her degree in Bankster Pedophilia. Her hope was to expose the network and create a recovery center for prepubescent children. I've been scouting locations -- Wall Street is a natural, but Bohemian Grove might provide better dramatic effect especially at night with that big owl in the background, the tall trees, and such. It could work.
Because Obama created ISIS and continues to train, fund, and supply them. Absolute worst president ever. And after Bush, that is a tough one.
Good luck killing all those ISIS/CIA Assholes!!!
and French Mossad agents too.
U.S. Media Blackout: Italian Courts Rule Vaccines Cause Autism

Thank you. There is a full blown war about this crap. Instead of the pharmacies coming clean that they completely faked the efficacy of the poisons they were injecting into people (yes that is sourced from one of the scientists involved in getting some vaccines approved and he was on the Alex Jones Show) they seem to have launched an offensive.
don't know much about jordan other than it is run by a Fucking King..AKA dictator..how effective the jordan army air forces are who knows and that other dictator in syria Bashar al as wipe may not like the idea much- so war is highly likely and guess who is on all sides..
Hope the Jordanians switch to Napalm...
So the troops on the ground is Jordan's idea?
Mission Accomplished, ISIS.
Also thanks a lot for getting the dog killed off on Downton Abbey.
So.....this game is starting to get confusing.....are countries just testing weapons now? is there going to be a full on big boy war? Whats the game on jordan here? Us ally, correct? Or are they kinda neutral? Pretty sure Jordan is a us ally.
Pure theatrics is my call. The story line must continue.
There is no one in our present administration that is decisive enough to act with such immediacy and lethality. These are the actions of the most western-friendly, mideast monarch in existence, exacting retribution for the burning alive of his citizen with the added benefit of degrading ISIS militarily. He is the first ME head of state to take offensive military action against the growing threat that ISIS poses to not only the middle east, but, as the revolutionary arm of islam, to all of western civilization.
"We are determined to wipe them from the face of the Earth," Maj. Gen. Mansour al-Jobour told NBC News on Sunday, citing the need for "revenge" after al-Kasabeh's killing.
Indiscriminately of course even though close to a thousand a month are being slaughtered in places like Baghdad from car bombs!
Congratulations General aj-Jewbour... You've just joined the pantheon of elite Western ethnic cleansers in Tel-Aviv, Washington, London and Kiev!
Welocme to the "Club" and your new role as carrion contributor!!!
They are all doin the cleansing thing man. It's what Islamic and western progressive tyranny's do. Hell, if your following ISIS they are nothing BUT "cleansing" even their own ranks. Murdering everybody. Not really surprising, it is normal for Islam, a tyrannical political system and NOT a religion.
Not a constitutional conservative in sight.

I think you're right "J"! Don't these two work for them?... Gotta love the "finger pointers" like Rand. They have just enough of a conscience to comprehend how dangerous it is playing "both ends" with the taxpayers money and our military understanding the treason they are committing but promptly turn it off when they are threatened! Probably with something like this!
But you are correct on one point. Not a constitutional conservative in sight!
Brother it is worse than you know.... check this shit man, progressive "attack groups" are battling to install bloody hands Hillary as the next progressive messiah. These people KNOW her and still froth at the mouth to enable her future criminal endeavors.
http://www.politico.com/story/2015/02/david-brock-resigns-priorities-usa...
What kind of twisted shit world do those people live in man?
Considering ISIS is the brainchild of the aforementioned "bloody Hands" Hillary Clinton you got to wonder how bad off is humanity with psychopaths like "Media Matters ", "Priorities USA Action", "Ready for Hillary", and "American Bridge"(to communism) free to engage aiding and abetting Hillary's crimes? And not just crimes now, we are talking WAR CRIMES like the illegal invasion and destruction of Libya, a Hillary Clinton signature accomplishment. Hillary was the force behind the whole thing, McCain just a senile progressive sideshow puppet and after the fact..
http://www.wnd.com/2013/05/how-obama-hillary-wrecked-libya/
Libya is still fucked...total chaos.
I'm surprised Hillary didn't have some story about coming under sniper fire when landing to talk with al Qaeda rebels about busting up Assad with American progressive aid.
http://abcnews.go.com/International/hillary-clinton-visits-libya-meet-re...
And still no constitutional conservatives in sight.....we are fucked.

And what is worse G the fucking tribe thinks it actually can switch sides after it's "blue helmeted" action(s) in Syria and Ukraine!... If i were a Zionist Jew living in Russia I'd be looking to pack quietly after what I've done and get the fuck out before Vlad sends his VIP "bon voyage" with spetsnaz to do the honors. Just look at Ihor Kolomoysky? Won't be using that third passport in his short life?!!!
The Jews in that part of Eastern Europe will wish it was 1979 with the exodus from the Soviet Union to Tel-Aviv. Holocaust may well be a genuine self-fulfilling prophecy this time around as well as for the rest of us!
This is what is being allowed to lead the Western World!
No wonder they fucking "wander"?!!! Every "pool they get in" they take a dump then leave?!!
ffs........
What's the chance that Jordan ends up occupying a land corridor through Syria that's just wide enough for a pipeline?
jordan has parts of it's population not loyal to this western puppet..kinda need the military in jordan to keep things calm..maybe israel can help out with internal security..this could turn into a real mess if jordan does invade syria, where's the UN??LOL
Yes, yes, "Jordanian troops" that speak English with a Brooklin accent...
I have noticed a few less NuYoRicans about lately.
As you were Prvt. Cruz.
The USA should purchase the country of Lichtenstein. Use them(covertly) as a base for the deployment of 50 or so nuclear weapons to level the entire Middle East. Oil & Terrorsit problems solved.

Sooo, Jordan is reported, on ZH if I recall correctly, as major source of contractors of ISIS.
Jordan poised to move into Iraq.
Note source of above artcle, Stars and Stripes........... So whats going on here? Is Jordanian move on Syria to follow??
Sunday morning DJ made a point of talking about the train going past the studio - very long and very loaded up with humvees in desert camo. Bullish urban camo clothing manufacturers.
Something that has been puzzling me for many years is why the old pipeline that runs through Jordan should not be revived.
There is an old pipeline that arrives from Iraq into Jordan, briefly crosses into Syria and makes its way to the Mediterranean through Israel. It has been sitting there unused since the 67 war.
I have to wonder whether that might be in play? Sure the hardware requires changing and upgrading, but the line is there.
Any input from engineers on whether using an already existing pipeline might make things easier and less costly?
Wrong border .... Raqqa .... is in Syria .... that's wrong too .... the Caliphate !
Here's the torch scene : http://i.4cdn.org/b/1422984895020.webm

I wonder how much this will cost us?
we'll print whatever it takes
"In other words, what would formerly have been seen as an overt act of territorial incursion, or as it is also known, a sovereign invasion, is now interpreted as a defensive act "
Hmm. Sounds kinda familiar. OH, wait a minute...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bush_Doctrine
"To forestall or prevent such hostile acts by our adversaries, the United States will, if necessary, act preemptively in exercising our inherent right of self-defense. "
"We are determined to wipe them from the face of the Earth"
Gee, someone might get all 'shock and awe'd...
Which set the stage, against a back-drop BACK THEN of ZERO pushback from Democrats, the very same behavior patterns from Obama. This very issue, with no one arguing, is simply a way to keep the fight on, without approvals from Congress other than sneaking in more funding, and will keep America in fight mode until forever. This gurantees that the youngest contributors here, in their 20's and having kids now, that their GREAT GREAT GREAT grandchildren will be paying for this. To think that we can foist endless war on the world, over-throwing Governments (Ukraine), installing puppet Goldman people all over the Plutocracy, and live lives as we had then as kids (I am older) is simply impossible to imagine. Sure, I am aware of the shenanigans in our Past, easily post WWII in hindsight, but I have never been as aware, thanks to ZH! Sorry if I sound stupid.
"Invasion is imminent .... Gold is dormant !" Algore
Kinda sounds like 'Jordan' is a new proxy army for the United States -prime for Congressional War Pigs to funnel MIC pork $$$ to defense contractors.

"Asked what Washington should do in response to the Islamic State's latest brazen act, Thornberry said speeding shipments of things like fuel and munitions to Jordan should come "first and immediate."
He also said the United States should "accelerate" its military and other efforts in Iraq and Syria targeting the Islamic State group.
Appearing on the program moments earlier, Senate Armed Services Committee member Sen. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., said that panel heard similar concerns from Abdullah.
Manchin said he expects US lawmakers to quickly explore steps that would allow them to get around the red tape involved with the foreign military sales (FMS) process.
Any unplanned sales to Jordan would be a shot in the arm of the US defense sector, which says — despite record profits — it has been hurt by annual across-the-board Pentagon budget cuts.
At the start of Ashton Carter's confirmation hearing to be secretary of defense, SASC Chairman Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., said the chamber could soon move legislation to meet the military needs spelled out by Abdullah. "

"The defense industry’s favorite lawmaker in the 2014 cycle was Rep. Mac Thornberry (R-Texas), who is the incoming House Armed Services chairman. Thornberry received $245,000 between his campaign committee and leadership PAC from the top 20 defense PACs. "
The sweet smell of revenge.
I really don't get this whole Islamic extremism thing. Why do they keep yelling "Allan's Snackbar" just before they blow themselves up?
Is "Jordan" going to stop in Iraq?
Do "they" plan on moving into Iran?
This is how girls play chess.
Welcome to the new Palestine.

I can't be the only person on the planet wondering why these nutjobs called ISIS have been such a gift to all the countries that wanted to bomb Assad out of existence in 2013. Jordan, UAE, Saudi Arabia, Israel, (Turkey), Qatar and USA have all benefitted from the polished ISIS PR horror campaigns that could not have done a better job of inciting terror and hatred towards Muslims (Even though most of the ones fighting ISIS are Muslims), driving the narrative to hysteria and more military action in direct contravention of Section 2(4) of the UN charter. I've been wondering for a couple of weeks whether the Jordanian jet fighters are actually bombing ISIS or Assad's army, and whether Assad has turned off his air defence to help the foreign jets regularly dropping bombs on his country in the hopes that some of them will land on the ISIS nutjobs.
The whole thing only makes sense if I assume that ISIS is a CIA-Mossad monster created in the deserts of the Jordanian terrorist training camps that were widely reported two years ago when the narrative was towards defeating Assad's WMDs using "freedom fighters". Considering that the largest US embassy in the world in the Green Zone, Baghdad has been miraculously spared from attacks for months, I'd have to assume that ISIS is still firmly controlled by the State Dept., but for how long? Monsters do have a habit of going out of control and with this imminent Jordanian invasion of Syria, it's going to be even more chaotic than I could have imagined.
One thing is for sure: the MIC turnover is going to be high this year.
I still don't believe a thing about this ISIS stuff... that word is too close to the word "crISIS" and we all know how manipulative the chess players can be and how sadistically disturbed they are when fabricating names, etc. for these scenarios. Those videos are WAY too polished... think people... why does a video of someone getting their head chopped off or of someone getting burned alive need that sort of production quality? It's completely meant to invoke an emotion and in this case it's gone so far as to invoke full scale military action. The whole thing simply does not add up - it's void of logic. The manipulators are getting their way and they're now manipulating entire countries into action.
What better way to arrange resupply of weapons to ISIS?
Air drop seems not accurate. some went to the dreaded Kurds. And the ISIS opening of air dropped cargo got filmed.
Helping ISIS by bombing Syrian Infrastructure was also outed.
Jordan probably will go in and out quickly leaving behind tons of weapons and ammunition for ISIS to collect.
After all this same tactic was used by US when it was forced to leave Iraq. So much stash of weapons, "somehow" got into the hand of ISIS.
Nothing new.
If you declare war against yourself, can you claim VICTORY no matter what happens.
" ...ISIS, that only exists due to US intervention in Syria in 2013". Wrong, the Arabs have been killing each other and anyone else that got in the way - for the same reasons that they are doing so today - long before Columbus was conceived. The leftist bullshit that clouds simple minds must be expunged if the West hopes to survive the Islamic onslaught playing out in the Middle East and Europe.
