The Stage Is Set For The Syrian Invasion
One week ago, when reporting on the latest bizarre plan presented by the Pentagon, namely providing Syrian rebels (but only the moderate ones, not the jihadists like al Nusra, or, well, ISIS) with B-1B Bomber air support in their attacks on ISIS, when we wrote that this "means in the coming weeks and months look forward to a surge in false flag "attacks" blamed on the Assad regime, aiming to give Obama validation to expand the "War against ISIS" to include Syria's regime as well."
We didn't have long to wait: in an entirely unsourced Time article written today by Aryn Baker, the Middle East Bureau Chief, the stage for the second attempt at invading Assad regime is finally set.
The article, titled "Why Bashar Assad Won’t Fight ISIS" is essentially an essay that, as the title suggests "proves" that the Syrian leader is, in fact, quite close with ISIS and derives strategis benefits from his relationship, which is why he won't attack them, and thus by implication is just as bad as ISIS and worthy of America's wrath.
How does Baker build up her propaganda? First, she cits a "Sunni businessman who is close to the regime but wants to remain anonymous for fear of repercussions from both ISIS supporters and the regime" and who "trades goods all over the country so his drivers have regular interactions with ISIS supporters and members in Raqqa, the ISIS stronghold in Syria, and in ISIS-controlled areas like Dier-ezzor." According to this Syrian version of Amazon:
The regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad has long had a pragmatic approach to the Islamic State of Iraq and Greater Syria. Even from the early days the regime purchased fuel from ISIS-controlled oil facilities, and it has maintained that relationship throughout the conflict. “Honestly speaking, the regime has always had dealings with ISIS, out of necessity.”
"Honestly speaking" of course being used quite loosely, considering that it is by now no secret that ISIS, in the words of General Wesley Clark, "got started through funding from our friends and allies", most notably Qatar and Saudi Arabia, and according to some even the CIA is involved so, no: honestly speaking, if anything, the Assad regime has been doing its best to stay away from ISIS, which at least on paper, was created as a result of extremist Al Nusra factions, who were fighting Assad in 2013, and were funded and weaponized by the US.
Of course, none of that is mentioned. What is, however, duly emphasized is the goalseeked conclusion that Assad and the Islamic State are like two peas in a pod:
Assad does not see ISIS as his primary problem, the businessman says. “The regime fears the Free Syrian Army and the Nusra Front, not ISIS. They [the FSA and Nusra] state their goal is to remove the President. But ISIS doesn’t say that. They have never directly threatened Damascus.” As the businessman notes, the strikes on ISIS targets are minimal. “If the regime were serious about getting rid of ISIS, they would have bombed Raqqa by now. Instead they bomb other cities, where the FSA is strong.” That said, the businessman does not believe that the regime has a formal relationship with ISIS, just a pragmatic one. “The more powerful ISIS grows, the more they are useful for the regime. They make America nervous, and the Americans in turn see the regime as a kind of bulwark against ISIS.”
Actually, the "Americans" see ISIS as the perfect false flag placeholder to build up yet another case about invading Damascus, after the humiliation of the bumbled attempt to use a doctored YouTube clip showing paid actors following what the CIA guaranteed was an Assad "chemical weapon" attack as a pretext to launch an invasion on Syria in the first attempt to topple Assad. It took an escalation that involved numerous Russian ships side by side with US cruisers in the Mediterranean before John Kerry realized that building Qatar's nat gas pipeline to Europe is not worth rising World War III over, and promptly backed off.
This time, ISIS is the bait.
Back to the Time article, where next we get the next "source" of information:
A senior Western diplomat who specializes in the Syrian civil war agrees that ISIS is seen as an asset by Assad. “They will do whatever it takes to devalue the opposition, even if it means strengthening ISIS. They know that if it comes to choosing between the black flag [of ISIS] and Damascus, the international community will choose Damascus.” And the strategy has worked extremely well. “The way it’s going now, it’s a matter of months, not even a year, that the moderate opposition is so weakened that it won’t be a factor anymore. So in just a few months from now the regime will be able to achieve its strategic goal of forcing the world to choose between Damascus and the black flags.”
Actually, according to that logic, the "international community" will choose both Damascus and the "black flags", in fact the community will be delighted to have the "flags" as a cover in an invasion, both air, sea and ground, toppling Assad and replacing him with yet another US-puppet regime (whose fate, following such sterling examples as Egypt, Libya and Iraq will be just spectacular), one which will be glad to accept Qatar and Syria hush money, while thousands of kilometers of pipes are laid under the territory in attempt to dethrone Gazprom as the provider of first and last resort to Europe... which as a reminder is what it is all about.
The anonymous "western diplomat" continues:
... by ignoring the conflict between the Syrian opposition and the Assad regime to focus purely on ISIS may solve problems in the short term, says the diplomat, “but there will be more problems to come. These are the ingredients for a further escalation of the conflict — alienating large parts of the Sunni population, so that they have no choice but to join ISIS. Not for ideological reasons, but because they will do whatever it takes to overthrow the regime in Damascus.” Not only that, it will widen the geographical boundaries of the conflict by making this a fight of all Sunnis. “It’s a clear recipe for further escalation well beyond the geographical boundaries of the current conflict.”
Which is why in order to prevent further escalation in the future, the US will be delighted to provide much more escalation right now.
And here is the piece de resistance of the article that may as well have been written by a 6th grader who is about to flunk propaganda class:
Damascus believes that once it has neutralized most of the opposition, it can then defeat ISIS with ease. “ISIS alone, the regime can deal with them. What Assad wants is international recognition of his legitimacy as Syria’s President,” says the businessman. “When the war is over, he can easily handle ISIS with the help of Hizballah and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.”
So let's get this straight:
- A "terrorist" group which was created and funded by US allies in the middle east (there are many) is fighting a war on behalf of a regime that the US and its allies in the middle east are desperately trying to topple; a "terrorist" group which until recently did not exist and which, inexplicably according to the author, Assad refuses to fight because.... unlike the US he has not seen the dreadful beheading movies which lead to so much daily water cooler talk across the US?
- Ths US now believes that "ISIS is seen as an asset by Assad" and that the moderate (this distinction is key: their flag has a pink skull and crossbones as opposed to the red one used by the "non-moderate") opposition which spawned ISIS in the power vacuum following the incomplete first US invasion of Syria in the symmer of 2013, is about to be destroyed by the same ISIS.
- Assad is confident he can "defeat ISIS with ease" once he has destroyed his so-called moderate enemies; the same ISIS which the US has been "fighting" now for half a year, and achieved absolutely nothing.
-
We know all those due to an essay of amateur propaganda caliber, which derives its entire narrative and conclusions based on two anonymous sources.
At this point we probably speak for everyone when we say: just invade Syria already, and let's proceed to the inevitable, and quite understandable, Russian retaliation, because frankly this endless propaganda and false-flaggery is now as obvious and pathetic as the Greek default which is also about 5 years overdue.

They already have invaded, they got ISIS there.
Welcome to the End Times!
Please say it isn't so...
Obola won the Nobel Peace Prize for cryin' out loud!
Surely, he wouldn't do such a thing!
LOL so wait... CIA, Saudis and Qatar create ISIS then blame Assad for not fighting them so USA can send mercinaries to go invade and steamroll through. Russia ie China will be very upset.
Wake up America! Your gov't is fucking you and your military over!
I don't see the insane rhetoric like the buildup to the Iraq 2.0 ground invasion (but then again I don't watch teevee). Most likely they're planning a "quick" but fierce air campaign so the CIA-asset-of-the-month can "mop" up everyone. That will obviously fail, but The Great Circle-Jerk around DC can not be broken once in action.

The biggest question is why doesnt the USA just invade Saudi Arabia and Qatar. Fuck SA & Q!
Boys will be boys
and psychopaths will be psychopaths.
Wait wait wait wait wait wait wait wait hold the fucking boat.
We, the Western powers, also remember that the UK already committed some troopies here, or was that next door or across the street, I get confused, to invade who, who is already being invaded by them who is supported by us alongside them and who which are we're not sure. So, could somebody please fucking tell me which side who is or is not on with or against us for which what and why what were doing here or there with or without who and them whom ever either of them are, please.
The enemy of my enemy is my friend if I can figure out who's my enemy or my friend.
Aaaaarraragaggaghhh!
Just look for the moderate rebels.
They are the ones that use dull blades for their beheadings.
All of this has been in the works for years and would have happened in 2012 had Kerry not given Assad an escape-clause by stating that invasion could be avoided by handing over their chemical weapons... Since then, we have had the ruse in Ukraine to occupy and tie Putin's hands with regards to Syria... Now that Putin is tied up and China has their own issues, Syria will be the next to topple in Saudi Arabia's grand plan... Same as it always was...
Wow!

"We will establish ourselves in Palestine whether you like it or not...You can hasten our arrival or you can equally retard it. It is however better for you to help us so as to avoid our constructive powers being turned into a destructive power which will overthrow the world." (Chaim Weizmann, Published in "Judische Rundschau," No. 4, 1920)."
Before the latest and greatest shill for US and Western War Exchanges to genocide more brownies in a new and fresh virgin target board, Syria, the f-wad self anoints claiming they are our leaders (little man complex common in the self indulgent white shoes, who in reality, are nothing more than employees of the people they claim to be leaders of). Public servants working as dispatchers and administrative types, and not, by any stretch of the loosest limp wrist-ed neo-solicalist fasioligarch-ish gad-flying CSPAN dandy's jaded prepubescent K-Street Kiddie Brothel fantasized interpretation of our constitution and adherence to the rule of law.
To do Syria ya gotta first bully Russia. Have a caption under an image of Putin that prhits Jihadi Johnny. Blame Putin, not the Russian people he works for, for alls sorts of unattributed BEX new releases. Downing of planes, cutting the uteruses out of 8 month old baby girls and bad breath and jailing Pussy Riot for destruction of private property and all that shit.
Crimea was Russian. And given that the angelic darling of the EU and US's lame-stream, a felon who did hard time for corruption, was yet, and despite, under the new absence of Ukrainian rule of law, qualified to to run for PM visa vi another very recent US sponsored coup, good old ready for prime time porn, ta da daaaa - Yulia Tymoshenko, who was caught on tape saying ..
saying that the ~8 million Russian speaking citizens in her country;should be ‘nuked’.
Makes sense that Crimean's, just another hovel of Russian Speaking Ukrainians, who didn't want to be nuked, voted to be annexed by Russia. If the Maiden Brownshirts, compensated with billions of America's commons credit can kill their way out from under Ukrainian law, by doggie, Crimean's can vote there way out. Just like Guantanamo, over the objections of the Cuban commons, enjoy's autonomy through a Batista Lease Agreement, Crimea's poet area was leased by Russia. The only invaders in Ukraine are the right wing nut fasioligarch-ish girly boys who call 'em selfs (not kidding) "maiden" (if de shoe fit ,,) and comped by billions of our treasure, crowd whankers and talliwackers were racking in 50 - 100 bucks an hour for trashing assets, extortion killing treason etc etc etc.
Carter's boss of the CIA, Turner, once responded to a typical Larry King softball, on CNN, that the "job of the CIA was to buy treason"
Our Diebold selected political class employees are alway hot for the blood to gold alchemy involving small theater genocides of brownie countries that cannot defend themselves, for example:
The list of US military involvements is long, but not very impressive when considering the strength of the adversaries (dates mark start of conflict):
But fucking with Russians is another matter completely. Common sense, as well as recent statements and commentary from the sane countries across the pond suggest Europe would prefer local commerce, commerce with Russian. Uncle Sam just can't get it up anymore,\.
What about our investment in the ISS? Should we throw that away for few more "hoped" shekels from an over supplied oil and currency market. Will US Astronauts have to walk the plank wearing ablative reentry spacesuits cause the CSPAN neo-libs sanctioned out the cost to Soyuz them back to earth? I say, look for a reason to invade Fiji. Safe bet. No defense ro speak of. The Genocide exchanges could re-hypothecate trillions from the 2 or 3 hundred billions that would be charged to the common's credit card. Yeah that it - forget Ukraine - Fiji is a drone accessible terrorist incubator. Fijians are considering using submarines to infect the US with land crabs. Now that is something worth a righteous mass murder of godless brown people if there ever was one.
Welcome to the End Times!
Been studying the manual.....let's do this thing.
Panama was December 1989. It continued into 1990.
a) In 1998 as I understand it a fellow dating his girlfriend noted that she would wake up in a trance and talk about future events and then fall back to sleep. She detaled the September 11 attacks in some detail. However she also talked in detail about a Chicago dirty nuke that would take out 5 city blocks around the Sears tower, and burn the portrait of the farmer's daughter. Iran would be blamed commencing with a full on nuclear strike of the country.
b) Guccifer a Romanian Hacker who is serving a 7 year prison sentence for hacking the accounts of the likes of George Bush and Colin Powell agreed to an interview with the Rolling Stones in return for the publishing of his Manifesto, which they very reluctantly did because in it he claimed the elite are planning to detonate a nuclear warhead in Chicago in 2015 and use it as a pretext to start WWIII.
Here is what a false flag of that manitude will accomplish.
- Gun control under UN mandate.
- Nuclear Strike inside Iran, Syria will be easy to mop up after.
- Russia looses one of her largest allies (outside of China).
- "You can invade Ukraine, well we can invade Iran!"
- Martial law anyone who will not cowtow or bow to government and the DHS can be disappeared.
- Totall Chinese style internet controls forced upon people.
- Military rings around all major cities.
History is in the words. If you look up the meaning of the word 'blood bath' - it was actually the royalty in their sickness would kill a local villager child with it's blood being put in the bath, under the believe it would make them look healthier and younger. Nothing has changed except the levels of propaganda. The elite of the world will do <anything> to maintain their grip of power, and sadly we are about to enter a dark chapter in history. The plus end is in 25 years from now all major governments will no longer exist.
Oh sorry I forgot to add that this is probably the excuse to initiate the coming "Obama freeze" where everyone get's their bank accounts frozen and seized by your loving government in some Cyprus like fashion (aka you can have $100 / day from your ATM) but no more sorry.. and your 401k, they used that to 'buy' bank certificates because their 'billion trillion' derivative exposure just blew up.
The real elites will be well positioned ahead of the event so look for 'quiet periods' just prior things like billionaires going short in the stock market etc. Lack of volume etc.
CNMC would it not be easier to have bamsters magic wand declare all derivatives null & void...
"The enemy of my enemy is my friend if I can figure out who's my enemy or my friend."
We are almost out of friends. There is still the UK. Imagine.
The US has the best friends money can buy.
No no no! You've got that wrong. Sharp blades cause less pain, faster bleeding and a quicker death. When talking beheading, fast is less cruel and more moderate.
I think.
Fuck, what was the question?
The Brits already got a plane shot down delivering American and Isreali weapons to ISIS. Caught red handed just this week.

"...P.S. from Aryn Baker's LinkedIn profile:... ...Frequent reporting travel to countries affected by the changes of the Arab Spring, from Syria to Saudi, Yemen, Qatar, Bahrain, Egypt, and Libya, as well as continued reporting in Pakistan and Afghanistan, which I have been covering since 2003."
Whuuuh? Did I miss the effects of the Arab Spring in Saudi Arabia? That's a country where women get lashed for the heinous crime of DRIVING. An Arab Spring in Saudi Arabia means overthrowing the House of Saud. That quickly results in a bullet in your skull. Arab Springs are not allowed there, nor would they be funded by their ally, the U.S. No, there will be no uprisings or influences of other uprisings in Saudi Arabia. Maybe sharply-worded petitions for crazy stuff like allowing women to vote (without mandatory lashing).
An Arab Spring in Qatar? Are you kidding? The only function of the state there is to fund radical Islamic revolutionary groups to overthrow OTHER Arab country's governments. Besides, political unrest would threaten the largest U.S. military base in the region located there. Qatar doesn't want any Arab Springs nonsense from their indentured servant citizens, and the U.S. won't allow any.
And Bahrain? Wasn't that failed Arab Spring uprising brutally suppressed by the Bahrain government far worse than Assad's actions against the U.S.-led Syrian Arab Spring? Bahrain makes Assad look like Gandhi. As a matter of fact, I'm surprised that we're not freedomizing and liberitating them - they have oil, don't they?
OK, so Aryn covers the Middle East, and probably wrote about the mostly failing/failed Arab Springs in SOME of those countries. Got it.
Investigative journalism? Well, her first source for this story is a businessman who cites two solid examples of Assad 'working with' ISIS: he keeps the cell phones working and allows food deliveries into ISIS-occupied Raqqa. I suppose it never occurred to Aryn that there's a quarter-million Syrian citizens living there that might need food in addition to the thousand or so ISIS clowns. Assad probably figured out that starving a quarter million Syrians to kill some ISIS guys is not worth it. Most of those ISIS clowns are, in fact, ex-Syrian-rebels once supported by the U.S. - they all switched sides to ISIS. I don't think they pal around with Assad on their days off, swap emails or 'friend' each other on Facebook.
There's some convoluted logic about how Assad isn't attacking ISIS because they serve to devalue the role of the rebels! Uh... sure. How about because Syria's closest and most immediate threats are the U.S.-backed headchoppers in Damascus and Aleppo and the Israeli-backed al Nusra headchopper attacks in the Golan?
Aryn cites an unnamed senior Western diplomat who suggests this is all an Assad strategy to weaken the rebels so much that the fight is only between Assad and ISIS. I'm guessing the U.S. strategy of being on the wrong side and sucking so bad at motivating and paying the 'moderate rebels' means they're quitting in droves to join ISIS because it's a better, more well-equipped army that feeds and pays its hired soldiers. Or how about because a substantial number of the original rebels have switched back to Assad's side after seeing all the senseless death and destruction for no purpose other than to carry out a foreign-backed coup that will not benefit them one bit? Hint: nobody wants to work for the U.S. because we SUCK. They would rather go back to Assad. Ouch!
"...What Assad wants is international recognition of his legitimacy as Syria’s President,” says the businessman..."
He was lawfully elected and is the legitimate president. Recognition?? I think he'll be quite satisfied if the United States just stops trying to kill him.
“When the war is over, he can easily handle ISIS with the help of Hizballah and the Iranian Revolutionary Guard.”
Oh... I see. The unnamed businessman is nothing but a shill for Israel. That is, if Aryn didn't just make the guy up so SHE could shill Israel's agenda. Why didn't she say that up front so I didn't have to waste my time reading her worthless article?
Funny about that lack of international recognition though. A Fars article just reported that "...French Lawmaker Jacques Myard said that President Bashar al-Assad is a part of the solution in Syria..." He said that during a visit to Assad in Syria along with a couple of other French lawmakers. That's going to piss off someone in Washington. Does horseface know about these sneaky French?
And another odd story that keeps coming up in Middle Eastern reports: Official: US Planes Continue Dropping Weapons Supplies for for ISIL in Iraq. Now why would we do that? So was that just a freak accident in Kobane when 20 pallets of stuff made it to the Rojava Kurds but the only two remotely-controlled steerable parachutes with boxes of ammo and grenades went straight to the ISIL compound?
Why would we bother invading Syria now? The Shia and Sunni Syrians hate us. Assad and the Alawites hates us. Al Nusra and ISIL hate us (mostly for our heads). Foreign jihadis hate us. If we went in there, we would have to kill EVERYBODY - they all hate us. Well, except for a few thousand Kurds in that one little town - Kobane. The one we leveled to liberate it from ISIS.
They're not allowed to. London signed a deal with the House of Saud Wahhabits that, in exchange for their support in the fight against the Ottomans no English (or their financial servants') army would ever invade.
It got a little bit more complicated in the 70s when Nixon renegotiated the deal involving oil, military projection and dollars, but remains essentially the same.
Because Saudi Arabia, Qatar and the USA are all Rothschild puppets.
Now see no sides, shall we?
Only us and them.
Because they're still useful as proxies. Plausible deniability, and all that.
Qatar is going to get their NG pipeline to Europe if it takes WWIII to do it. This little gem goes back to Henry the K - we "defend" Saudi (including Qatar) and they will use the dollar. It all depends what the meaning of "defend" is! The petro-dollar must survive regardless of who and how many are sacrificed.
No, you do see the insane hype and rhetoric over Daesh (ISIS, ISIL, IS, whatever f'ing name they like today), which is the pretext for the build up of our forces in the region. Once we get all our pawns in place, then we'll come up with some other pretext to go after Assad...my guess it will be because Daesh infilitrates and kills him, of course leaving us no choice but to destroy the country so we can save it.
If I was Assad, I would have been on a continuos digging campaign. Every arty piece, every tank, every AA battery, every platoon would have 5-10 holes dug for it. Take years to bomb them all.. Ala N. vietnam tunnel system. Besides we try this Russia will fly in the entire SA line of AA missiles with advisors if we bomb them woe to us..
I'm afraid it's another way around: US government is a puppet of the US military-industrial complex...
That is right. Obola will not do such a thing but his master will, using US resources.
As Wesley Clark said, this has been planned for at least 15 years now;seven countries in five years, starting with Iraq, and then Syria, Lebanon, Libya, Somalia, Sudan and, finishing off, Iran

"We should prepare to go over to the offensive. Our aim is to smash Lebanon, Trans-Jordan, and Syria. The weak point is Lebanon, for the Moslem regime is artificial and easy for us to undermine.

Who is this Aryn chick? For a journo she seems to have a lot of info on secret military invasion plans. Does she have a bio? A real one.
Great plan...send thousands of U.S. young men to die fighting a war they can never win.
It can be used to cover up the collapse of the U.S. recovery and bring down youth unemployment
at the same time. Praise to the .0001%, they are geniuses. Sarc sarc sarc sarc sarc..ad infinitum
No sarc. There are geniuses at work for them. They get to employ the BEST minds money can buy. It's called fragmentalisation. I allways cringe when people say they are "stupid", "uniformed" or "idiots". They are not. Evil yes, stupid no. But they don't know the whole (((((divine)))) picture, and evil tends to eat its own.
One thing about sociopaths and psychopaths: They tend to be egomaniacs who are very poor at long term planning.
Well said .. . applies to Ivy Leaguers too: they are very smart . . .but many are very narrow and conventional. It's like a computer with a great CPU but limited programming--very good for what it was designed to do, which may be to chase its own tail, but not worth much beyond that.
Then there are the legacy students like Bush and the rare mentored puppet like Obama.
What divine picture?? These guys are geniuses and hence KNOW that there is not heaven or hell. Faith in afterlife is a disadvantage. They don't have it.
Utter destruction leaving Damascus a deserted city, never to rise again, is predicted in the Bible. Isaiah 17:1-3
The rest of Isaiah 17 doesn't paint a very nice picture for Israel either though. You've got to wonder how insane the Zionists have to be to try and bring these prophecies about.
What are you talking about?
You've got to wonder how insane the Zionists have to be to try and bring these prophecies about.
What are you talking about?
Hes' talking about the Zionist Talmudists that you insist on defending.Zionists didn't even exist at the time the Bible was written.
So I say again. WTF are you talking about?
Syria has to die, because Ukraine can't pay for gas.
Russia will turn off gas to Ukraine for not paying. Ukraine needs to get all its gas from Europe. Europe needs to build gas pipelines via Syria. Syria has to die for gas to be delivered to Ukraine fascists.
WTF kind of paranoid lunatic bullshit did I just read ??
that would be the us state department

The Mother of All Bullshits that Assad is behind ISIS
Not worth any further comments.
Baker is his correct last name.
It's actually her. Fucking american bitch.
But as Udo Ulkofte in his book "Bought journalists" wrote, these press prostitutes are friends with politicians, this filth is playing the game on the side of american and british secret services, funds, foundations, institutes and political parties. They are part of the big anglo-american team and they are fucking proud of it.
When the shit hits the fan, these jountalist cunts should be hanged first. Bankers next.
We seem to have generated a whole generation of these silly bimbos. Fifty years ago a moron like her wouldn't have made out of the typing pool. Now she's the Middle East "expert" for Time Magazine. Hard to imagine.
If that is true then why does Iran have Hezbollah in there fighting with ISIS? Assad likes ISIS killing some of his opposition but I doubt he is doing much to support them because they want him out of there also.
I can't believe democrats don't see Obama as the war monger he is. And republicans further the problem by saying he doesn't do enough to fight wars! Fucking bullshit Hegelian party system!
BURN THE BANKS!!!
President Obama is a LOSER.

The Democrats do see it...everyone whose anyone in D.C. knows it...they are just towing the neocon/chosenites plan....and the Democrats don't want to look like chicken shit weenies on the domestic front....because most Americans don't have a flipping clue about ISIS other than what the MSM tells them....if you were to read the comments about ISIS on MSM sites...you'd be floored by the ignorance and just down right stupidity....
Net Neutrality can't come quick enough for these clowns.
Syria has done NOTHING. This is all Banker/CIA/NPP-Obama's doing. This is Fucking Bullshit!!!
When are Americans going to Wake the Fuck Up???
EBT card carriers will at 10:15 a.m. Tomorrow morning.......sharp!
Went to the local grocery store last night, ony other customer was a woman wearing a ratty bathrobe buying a pack of cigarettes with pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters. I guess the EBT cards are completely drained.
Serbia was BS, Iraq was BS, Libya was BS, Lebanon was BS, Syria is BS, Ukraine is BS.
Who is going to stop them? Russia is the prize and by not growing a pair long ago Russia will end up alone and deconstructed economically, again. (China will not fight for Russia.)
A U-Tube video of the anonymous sources speaking in a darkened room using a voice changer would really help me decide whether to believe this or not........
People, people ... have a heart. Somebody's got to feed those Lockheed/Boeing/Raytheon employees.
The Marines just finished up a major training exercise at Pendleton, last week.
If it's war TPTB want, war is what they'll get.
Jim, Bob, Joe and Fred will lead the charge withe Larry and Hank in reserve.
Little Barack got the shit beat out of him as a boy and had to watch his momma play pass around Sally at the communist strategy meetings. He is going to get even, no matter how many of us have to die in the process.
Was Barry's momma sharing herself with her party colleagues?
Oh yes, there were many stories and pictures about that.
Worthless commie slut all the way.. The more degrading the better, daddy did not show love I guess... I'm the NSA favorite now... haha

Putin would like nothing better than to shoot down a few B1 bombers flying over Syria!
This was is all about the destruction of the US! All of this was planned years ago to lead the world into chaos and produce a one world government.
"General?"
"Captain."
"Sir, these co-ordinates ISIS is calling in for the bomb run don't make sense."
"How so, Captain?"
"Well, according to the map, the target is here."
"Where?"
"Here. DC. Us, sir."
"Check the map, son, it must be upside down. They are our allies!"
"All of this was planned years ago to lead the world into chaos and produce a one world government."
Five years ago I'd have dismissed you as a nutter. Suffice to say I now think what you say is terrifyingly close to reality.
Terrifying close is all he gets?
It'll be called the Bretton Craters system.
From MR166 - "Putin would like nothing better than to shoot down a few B1 bombers flying over Syria!"
Wrong. This is why Putin cancelled the contract to sell modern anti air missiles to Syria. Even if Russia was not pulling the trigger he was afraid for Russian made missiles to strike NATO/US/Israel. Oh, why does Putin not shoot down the jet flying into Syria now?
How many of these phoney red lines that people claim Putin has drawn have to be crossed before they realize Putin is not what they think. Putin again will not act, people will say it is because his is a great chess player, then they will say the red line is Iran.
If the attack occurs and Putin does not fire a shot can we all agree that he in impotent, and not a chess player?
Time has passed Syria by.
With new berthing facilities in Iran, Crimea back in mother Russia, and bringing Turkey
into the Russian sphere,it no longer remains a cassus beli for Putin. Its loss would only
be mildly inconvenient at this point.The pipeline will be blocked elsewhere.
The delay has given the required time for Iran to become a full member of the SCO,
at its next meeting.
Someone is thinking several moves ahead.
There it is again. The old, Putin's inaction is not weakness but is a sign of what a great chess player he is, BS. When before they claimed Syria was the red line (after other lines walk over), Putin will never allow Syria to be attacked, Putin will go to war, he's gonna do it over Syria!, BS
Lets just look at what other allies of Russia/Putin have suffered, how they were assisted and defended. Serbia, Iraq, Libya just to name a few. Putin/Russia will not fight unless Russia's borders are violated by uniformed troops, planes or missiles. Putin will not fight in EUke no matter what occurs. He uses EUke as a buffer for Crimea and will allow all who live there to be exterminated without Russia engaging directly.
If Turkey is in Russia's sphere, and they may be, then how Turkey is allowed to particapate and assist in the destruction of Syria cast Putin in a dark light.
Someone is only thinking short term and their inaction is going to cost them dearly several moves later.
By now, we all know that Obomer is a war mongering, closeted, liar.
But even the crack whore (see Mia Pope on UTube) in chief must know that Vlad will ICBM all over him if Al Assad is attacked.
UNLESS, that's what Hussein's handlers' are gunning for.
Well I hope Russia gives us all what been coming for a long time.
Personally, I can't wait to meet my maker. The sooner this farce called the American Dream is over, the better.
Hope and change, as it turns out, is nothing but a neocon twat, at least when it comes to foreign policy. I hope he gets anal cancer.
Bait and switch = Hope and change. Or was it Hope and switch , bait and change ?
Assad isn't going to fall. China, Iran, Iraq and Russia have his back.
China is out. Jinping has his own problems, he is in silent civil war for control of the party.
Russia is busy in Ukraine
Iraq does not even exist
Obama is now useless, it can no longer stop Pentagon. A neocon is now defense secretary. Republicans in congress are running foreign policy.
Obama and bank lobby failed to destroy neocons
Pentagon will overrun Assad soon, which means direct war with Iran, since Iran considers Syria its territory now.
Ekm1, Oblama has been useless since the day before he took his first shit in the White House......IMHO...
I would say though, if I had to bet, you are very close with your post, as usual.
To think the Half Black Cracker lets the Republicans in Congress run anything requires a special level of ignorance.
Quick! Evacuate from your deluded bubble...!
well, I guess the Iranians have a "better to fight them over there than over here" attitude.....some other country has also followed that mantra these past 15 odd years, cant for the life of me remember which one though.
"...in an entirely unsourced Time article..."
Excellent!
Indeed nmewn, indeed.
But then, this sort of unsourced crap worked in the past, Iraq, and so on...
(ticked you up by the way, because I miss you!)
It's reported George Soros has pumped $196 million into Obama's efforts to seize regulatory control of the Internet, and has placed so-called net neutrality proponents on White House staff.
Yes, it's true, a mere handful of billionaires own the U.S. Government. The lost Grimms Fairy Tale, Bitchez.....
Wheeler likes him some hot banker cock.. I heard him talk at a conference last year what a self aggrandizing twat, everyone stood and clapped as he exited with his little bitch 4'8" male attendant carrying his briefcase behind him... I drank my coffee.
This whole isis thing is a scam. The goal is to overthrow Assad then go after Iran. The American government is going to pay a big price for their sins one day. I hope I am around to see it go down.
Yes it is a scam - It is also much to with attacking one of Russias allies.
Americans should be digging bomb shelters -a first strike might be in Putins favour & would be very warrented what with ALL the other aggression right on Russia's border.
The amazing thing is that every dirty tactic America uses seems to backfire on them. My bet is that even if they manage to topple Assad without starting a nuclear war with Russia and they finally get the gas pipeline they want built through the middle east without terrorists blowing it up, that new tecchnology will come along that will make it all obsolete before they can profit from it.
Russia will not launch WWIII they already have Crimea and the EU has to get nuked for Ukraine?
Wars are not always launched. Sometimes they are stumbled into. Think of all the wars before nukes were invented where both sides were saying "This'll be over by Christmas" that dragged on for several years. The problem is that we have nukes today, and the "over by Christmas" part could actually be true, even with a war started on Christmas Eve.

Paul Craig Roberts Moscow Academy speech adresses Syria also. OUTSTANDING
Just as 9/11 served to launch Washington’s wars for hegemony in the Middle East, 9/11 served to create the American police state. The Constitution and the civil liberties it protects quickly fell to the accumulation of power in the executive branch that a state of war permitted.
Why not? The situation is so confused there, no one can follow the logic (assuming there is some). In any case it's perfect timing. While most Americans are more concerned with getting their March Madness brackets filled out, the bombing of [whoever] can proceed as a mere footnote on the nightly news.
No question that Syria is being targetted for invasion and all they're looking for is some trumped-up pretext. But I don't get this pipeline explanation for the simple reason that they don't need Syria to get Gulf gas to Europe. It could go through Iraq and then Turkey. Am I wrong?
The Ark of the Covenant has been located deep within Syrian borders by Google Satellite Maps, and Indiana Obama has vowed to unearth it, harness the powers within and usher in a new age of hope and change for all. Brian Williams will be there too of course.....
I think ISIS uses Turkey to sell the oil they get.

This isn't about pipelines. It is about toppling secular governments and replacing them with Muslim extremist governments. For whatever reason, this has been US policy since 1979-- Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt, Turkey (peacefully), and now Syria.
Ignore the rhetoric, the results speak for themselves.
The reason is:
"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful." -Lucius Annaeus Seneca (4?BCE - 61CE)
It doesn't matter whether it is Christianity, Islam or Judaism. They're all useful to TPTB.
Faith: "Belief without evidence in what is told by one who speaks without knowledge, of things without parallel." -- Ambrose Bierce
I suggest you pose an unanswered question within your post - you say it's not for pipelines but for 'whatever reason'.... Leads to the question - what is the reason? It would be hard to accept that it's for no reason and I don't think it's for the sake of one religion versus another as posed below. But i do think it has to be for some reason and ask Qui Bono? Pipelines or oil seems to be one answer that fits but there are probably others.
Finding the 'reason' is critically important as without it, none of this makes sense. If you have any other theory that connects the dots - would be interesting to think on.
.......also Assad does not like western bankers.
That's an interesting question and one that I have looked at often. Let's assume that the Qatari pipeline explanation isn't the only one, so we have deliberate destabilisation of Syria for whom? My guess is Israel & US
1. Ousting Assad (Or any other government) who are allied with Iran (Hezbollah) against Israel.
2. Russia has the last and only foreign military base outside the former Soviet Union in Tartus. One that Washington wants to eliminate.
3. This one's a little left field, but if you look at the old testament, Damascus in Syria is mentioned several times, sometimes warring with Israel, sometimes mentioned as conquered by Israel - it doesn't make a lot of sense as one would expect. This is the same text that Israelis use to justify their illegal occupation and settlements inside Palestinian territories. So from a zionist point of view, they may see Syria as part of their insane expansion plans. It's too horrifying to imagine, but the Israelis do have a tendency to do things that are too horrifying to imagine for most people.
And the answer is ... #3. The juden follow their old testament like the muzzies follow theirs. I used to support freedom of religion, but no longer.
as a european, my answer would be that the US do not want to conquer any land, they just want chaos on the fringes of Europe. Best way to keep it dependent on the US, best way to keep intervening in Eurasia.
Zbigniew Brzezinski was quite honest about this in his book : the strategic goal of any US policy must be to ensure that no concurrent develops in Eurasia. Having ensured with the help of local supporters that EU has a constitution that makes it ungouvernable (it's very interesting to read the Federalist Papers with the constitution of the EU in mind, basically every possible error mentionned in the former appears in the latter...), the US just has to ensure a military presence to control the local states, and global insecurity in Eurasia in the mean to justify this presence...
Assad, Putin, Iran, North Korea, etc. are irrelevant in this scheme. What is needed is a bad guy, a justification for military presence, and insecurity so that everyone turns to the US for help...
as another european, my further answer is that Russia has a MIC, too, and has interest in leveraging it's national strenghts... which include manly, militaristic moves popular among Russians
so both sides have and see advantages in the current situation, and this includes Cameron's Tory government in the UK, btw
further, the EU has no constitution
only treaties among sovereigns, which have three alliances:
one trading and regulatory alliance, the EU, of 28 countries, one monetary alliance, the EuroZone, of 19 countries, and one military alliance, the NATO, with the US
any talk about "a constitution that makes the EU ungovernable" is completely forgetting the realities involved, which we europeans carefully divide in spheres, by treaties
Looks like your spheres of reality are kind of crashing into one another.
You Europeans are geniuses. No Constitution. Instead you are ruled by unelected bureaucrats put in place by bankster overlords.
You got it all figured out.
I agree in general, but we have signed the Treaty of Lisbon that contains has the same content as the European Constitutional Treaty, reported missing in action... I was specifically refering to the institutions of the EU, not the Eurozone, nor the NATO (Norway) nor Schengen (Switzerland), etc. These european institutions are impotent by design, and every time serious work is needed it is undertaken by the most relevant member states, even if it pertains to the whole union...
Interesting woman, this Aryn Baker. She sold war when she was posted in Afghanistan (& getting her husband, Tamim Samee, some juicy infrastructure contracts in the process), she sold war against Iran, she sold war against Russia (over MH17), she sold war against Lebanon so Israel can "protect itself", and she sold the ebola epidemic. She could be writing for the State Dept's press conferences for their two minutes hate sessions, and now she is selling war against Syria. She doesn't look like a psychopath, but clearly she writes like one.
I think most of us have been waiting for the warmongers to invade Syria using ISIS as a pretext for ages and here it is right on cue. Who said insane murdering cretins weren't predictable? Fishmongers sell fish, warmongers sell war. It isn't an exaggeration to call this woman a warmonger.
We armed some folks.
Public relations isn't sales. She is in the PR business.
The sales work is done every two years. It's called "elections."
And what does a psychopath look like?
It's a frickin behavior.
True. I still expect the cliched wild eyes, drool, bad teeth, and incoherence when I think about psychopaths. You know, sort of like the jihadis I see on the news. But the exact opposite is true of most of the psychopaths I see on the msm selling death and hate with a smile.
This guy describes the face-time psychos as civilopaths.

You know what I can't figure out?
Yesterday I read that America's Military is hard pressed to defend the homeland as the military has deteriorated so much, yet for some reason the USA has more aircraft carriers than the rest of the world.
Then some admiral says China has more subs than America.
I also read the USA cannot engage in two wars at one time. Who in their right mind would want one war, never mind two?
No one is out to invade the USA, but if the psychos keep this up, some country may try it, although I can't imagine how they would stretch their supply lines. I don't believe a country with more than 300 million people can be invaded that easily.
You are right, they are warmongers.
Hey Cherry. Indeed, who in their right mind would ever want a war or even two? I had a small taste of the MIC mindset when I did my stint with the infantry in my youth and the fact is, I got the hell out as soon as I figured out that killing people on demand was going to drive me insane. If the MIC didn't have any enemies, the whole industry would have to invent them to keep on receiving their paychecks from the public purse, and so it does. Invent enemies to kill, even train, fund and arm nutjobs to target later. It turns allies into enemies, cajoles, provokes, creates false flags to incite hate against people who have never done us any harm. It's a racket, just as somebody wise wrote 80yrs ago.
Basically the same with law enforcement:

Yep, Butler wrote war is a racket. However, he was the main racketter for the banksters for years. I always smile when I see reference to himi, to make an honest comparision he is like a Al Capone hit man coming forward after a full career to tell us the mob isn't good. He already did the job, got his money, then rats on the boss. Did it take hiim decades to figure it out?
Read his full story. He was basically a tool of TPTB. Because he realized it after it was over doesn't make him wise, it makes him exceptionally dense. Why did he do what he did if he knew it all along?
The US is also going to magically supply Europe with natural gas. Never mind that the US was a net natural gas importer in 2013. Numbers and facts do not matter when it comes to the narrative. We live in interesting times, my cherry picking friend. Dangerous times. Our government is going to act as close to the narrative as it can and hope that nobody calls its bluff. The first time that the bluff is called, Katy bar the door!
There is truth, then there is truth. I can tell you tell you my opinion on which is which, what is what, and who is who, but in the end, you have to figure it out for yourself.
It's a replay of the old Cold War Mk I 'Missile Gap' bullshit. It's all about money, power and profit, nothing else.
You don't think we can be invaded easily? I'll tell you one thing: if we are invaded, I am siding with the invaders. And I bet a lot of others will, too.

Went out to eat and CNN was on the TV. With ISIS we get...
"beheadings", "killing Christians", "destroying priceless, ancient art", " 'Jihadi John' from London"
The propaganda is running as thick as pancake batter and as foul as neocon diarrhea.
Oh, let's not forget "Russian aggression in Ukraine"
Continuous and shameless lies -- is this the Neocon foundation for better government?
