John Kerry: "Military Pressure May Be Needed To Oust Syria's President "

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Last week, after reading a Time article titled "Why Bashar Assad Won’t Fight ISIS" written by a journalist whose recent work includes "The YouTube War", and who sourced two unnamed, anonymous sources to reach the conclusion that Syria's president Assad is in cahoots with ISIS, we made a simple conclusion: "The Stage Is Set For The Syrian Invasion." Barely a week has gone by and the wheels for the Syrian invasion are indeed turning: earlier today, US Secretary of State John Kerry (who one hopes doesn't use kerryemails.com as a work email server) who is on a trip to Saudi Arabia unveiled the next steps when he said that "military pressure may be needed to oust Syria's President Bashar al-Assad."

But wait, wasn't Obama's war in Iraq, authorized by Congress, solely a means to fight the stateless Islamic State of Syria and Iraq "scourge"? Or was all of that merely a pretext to do what the US tried once already in 2013 and failed?

AFP quotes Kerry: "He's lost any semblance of legitimacy, but we have no higher priority than disrupting and defeating Daesh and other terror networks", he told reporters, using an Arabic acronym for the Islamic State group which has seized swathes of Syria and Iraq.

Actually, the highest priority is not "Daesh" which is a populist distraction aided by some truly Hollywood-grade video editing and YouTube clips, but who controls the ground under Assad's feet: that all important gateway from the middle east into Turkey, and then, Europe. A gateway that is critical to the one nation that has all the natural gas in the world, and no end market to sell it to: Qatar.

Of course, Assad knows all of this: late last year, Assad told French reporters, “let’s be honest: Had Qatar not paid money to those terrorists at that time, and had Turkey not supported them logistically, and had not the West supported them politically, things would have been different. If we in Syria had problems and mistakes before the crisis, which is normal, this doesn’t necessarily mean that the events had internal causes”.

Assad continued, daring to call the staged US spade precisely what it was: he called its air strikes "merely cosmetic" and said that “terrorism cannot be destroyed from the air.” Assad added that “saying that the alliance’s airstrikes are helping us is not true." Which is why Time had to spin an unsourced article to "prove" that there was in fact a connection between the two.

Finally, Syria's president explained that Syria was fighting against “not only gangs”, but also states that support them with “billions of dollars.”

All of that is, of course, irrelevant to the top diplomat of one of these "supporting countries", and fast forwarding to today, Kerry told reporters in Saudi Arabia that "ultimately a combination of diplomacy and pressure will be needed to bring about a political transition. Military pressure particularly may be necessary given President Assad's reluctance to negotiate seriously."

Negotiate what exactly: how to hand himself over to the US? And since the answer doesn't matter, whatever it is what the US wants will have to be achieved in the same way that the staged Syrian war of 2013 was presented to the world: using false flag video clips, which resulted in a near-global confrontation involving Assad's close ally over at the Kremlin.

Which brings us to the most important variable: Russia's response to any "military pressure" applied against Assad. Again.

As RT reports, last November, Russia’s Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov commented on the issue, saying that: “Russia condemns the use of extremist groups in efforts to change the regime [in Syria].” Clear, concise and the the point.

Today Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich added some more insight into how it feels about constant Western efforts to provoke a war with Syria:

That last assumes the west is interested in peace in Syria, when the entire point of introducing the ISIS "element" is precisely to destabilize the region and bring it to all out war.

The US-led coalition started air strikes in Syria last September as a part of a joint effort to battle the jihadist group, which had seized Syrian and Iraqi territories. Despite carrying out airstrikes in Syria, Washington has refused to work with the country’s government, stating that it wants to see Bashar Assad ousted.

 

Turkey backs the position of the US, and in March the two NATO allies began training “moderate” Syrian rebels to battle against the Islamic State militants. 

 

This April, Moscow is set to host a meeting between the Syrian opposition and representatives of the government.

One can be confident that said meeting will achieve nothing, after the US makes it clear that no Moscow-brokered agreement is acceptable. Just as one can be confident that the ISIS "campaign" will continue and get ever closer to Damascus until yet another appropriately-framed YouTube clip appears and leads to another war with Assad. Because when petrodollar interests talk, mere innocent people are always expendable.

Back in the decade of the 1990's, when I worked for a 'Union Shop', we used to call this 'Little-Man Syndrome'. Due to the miracles of modern medicine, people like John Kohn (Kerry) can be treated, via the 'little blue pill', though.

REMEMBER THIS FACT: Uncut dicks 'look' bigger, but go off faster (much faster). That's why Russian women are so bitchy, by the way. THEN, there's that issue with 'smegma'... If a woman wants you, and the head of your dick smells like old urine and prostate secretions (well-aged, and resembling the scent of rotting cheese), it won't matter how 'big' your penis is. That's probably why Russian generals drink so much potato alcohol.

Not sure what this has to do with Assad, but I'll bite (no pun intended)......Remember, slicing off some of your kids dick is out and out child mutilation whatever the religious crazies say. It is a disgusting and unnecessary religious tradition and is no different to FGM.

And well aged smegma? What do you think showers are for? Never had a single chick complain when going down on my natural, unchopped (clean) todger. And the tally is over 150. And what this going off much faster crap? Oh, you think because the end of your dick is dead to feeling, you can shag for longer. haha. Keep living the dream Monty.

I know many Dads now who are now disgusted with what they did to their kids. As they should be.

Cheers!

Now, back to ASSAD. WTF DID HE DO ANYWAY?

OMG Monty just because you were a baby and too young to remember being sexually asaulted/mutilated by some criminal doctor/rabbi/imam whatever and with the consent of your own parents, does,nt make this vile practice ok . it has nothing to do with your sexual prowess in later life . This is the number one unspoken abuse issue in the world.If consenting adults want to do it when they come of age for whatever reason , no problem , but to a brand new baby who cannot even speak let alone defend him/herself ?? Any Doctor/Nurse who participates in this should be jailed for child abuse.

Kerry is making this statement to the Gulf States, which basically funded ISIS to destabilize both Syria and Iraq. Of course he has to blow the Saudis at this meeting - that's his job. 

In the mean time, Russia and now France are meeting with Assad to talk about ending the war. 'Other' countries have been secretly intervening to end the humanitarian crisis as well. In other words, FUCK THE U.S. - we are obviously not part of any solution that will emerge. Everyone is going behind the U.S.s back to make this happen.

The Gulf States and all their money could only buy religious extremists and homicidal maniacs for so long. Most of them are now buried under the Syrian and Iraqi desserts - the rest of ISIS is going to need to flee SOMEWHERE. In other words, it's THAT time Gulf States. Get ready for the shock and awe of blowback - especially YOU Saudi Arabia.

When you whip takfiris into a head-chopping frenzy and they get their ass kicked out of Syria and Iraq, then they're comin' back to the Wahabbi Motherland: Saudi Arabia. You are completely fucked, and the world won't shed a single tear when the jihadis are playing soccer with your heads in downtown Riyadh. That's the trouble with letting jihadis get a little taste of OIL MONEY. It's like crack cocaine - they NEED it now, and you seem to have a lot of it. Why should they sit aroudn starving to death in some shithole like Dier ez-Zor getting bombed night and day and cranking out more head-chopping videos for nothing? They want a little R&R and I think your Riyadh penthouses and your daughters are going to be a large part of that. Maybe you can call the U.S. to carpet-bomb Riyadh and 'liberate' it for you. What's good for the goose...

Moscow can't do much to aid Assad now, so it's all down to Iran and Hezbollah holding the US's balls and squeezing.

Turkey has no excuse at all, they complain like smitten heroes about the flood of refugees, but who was all gung-ho from the very beginning to create this spiral mess against Assad?  Who has channeled the arm to FSA, Al-Nusra and ISIS? All came through Turkey, and now the Kurds through Turkey as well. The Turks have done all they can to create this shit, Jordan has gone along at every step.

And Israel has provided small arms for the lot, because all Netanyahooey cares about is destroying Syria, and Iraq and making sure the remain dysfunctional for decades, and for the US to be there to bomb ISIS to dust then hit Iran.

The whole thing from Israel's view, is to take out Iran. Syria and Hezbollah are a fortuitous bonus of getting to wipe-out Iran.

The GCC are up for it too, they want to be free of the Persian menace. The GCC are just as guilty as Israel, Turkey and Washington in this.

And the US has made all efforts to engage the services of the usual mix of western powers to assist in the killing, under the banner of killing the death cult. Fair bit of irony there, because their next job will be to kill the Iranians, for Israel.

Plus if Kerry is trying to apply pressure to Iran by threatening Assad, as a bargaining chip and leverage over the 'nuclear issue', but these comments look more like shooting your foot off than a strategy - but frankly, I suspect the US wants all regional stability to collapse soon, and the situation to escalate into a much more intense and desperate large conflict, against Syria, ISIS, Hezbollah, Al-Nusra, and particularly against Iran (at first in Iraq).

The got rid of Assad's chemical weapons so now he's clear for the chop, and they got Iran's HEU program too, so they'll be next soon after.

Just look at what's happening in Lebanon. The French, Saudis and Jordanians are rushing heavy artillery to the Lebanese army who are busy building fire bases, right now. They are going to attack Hezbollah and Al-Nusra, with Israeli and US support, so Lebanon can be a US puppet, with Assad completely gone.

So this is all preparatory to taking out Iran. Assad's army, Hezbollah, Al-Nusra and ISIS just need to go first, and that will incite Iran to act, and then it will be on everywhere. Within 2 to 3 years the whole of the Middle east will be as wrecked and dysfunctional as Libya. Only Israel will remain intact and the Palestinians will NOT be getting any state, from that point.

And when done and Iran is finally destroyed and Teheran taken the Middle East will be a sea of solid intense white-hot hatred towards the west, and Israel.

For sure Pakistan will be the next target of Israel and the US at that point. It's how Iran, Iraq and Libya got their centrifuges, and it's why the Israeli MIC are working so closely with India.

When Putin stopped the Western bombing Syria in Sept-Oct 2013 by removing the Chem weapon incitement, the West simply formulated a different strategy and kept tweaking it until they again were right back ready to smash Damascus once again.

Western forces are flooding back into the ME right now, so we're weeks away from this. Once spring comes so will the destruction of Damascus.

And keep in mind, there's not one sane reason or critical fact the demands any of this occur. It is entirely due to Israel wanting Iran Hezbollah, Gaza, Syria Iraq and Iran smashed.

Soon it will be the remaining Arab states to, and the West can just get used to a lower carbon foot print, hence the push by Obama for parallel extreme climate AGW propaganda, while oil and gas industry growth in the US is exploding. They are so sincere.

 

Yes, I'm speculating, no I don't like doing that, but there are too many joined-dots here already, not to. And Kerry is openly saying things that if done, will guarantee that it will unfold more or less in this way. A huge enormously damaging war with Iran with no limit to how big it can expand to.

And no I don't like talking about it when my own country will be heavily involved, but as far as I can see, we owe ZERO allegiance to Israeli 'foreign policy', or the insane pathological parasitic CUNT like Netanyahooey, nor do we owe any allegiance to the devious intrigues of Washington scum who are serving Israeli intrigues at western expense.

Problem is Russia's factories sell them, and don't give them away. And they're expensive unless the govt sells surplus gear cheaply and include delivery.

Iran buys their SAMs from several states but increasingly build their own. And Iran has the resources to eventually pay its bills. But Russia has not sold Iran heavy SAMs such as S300. Iran is assuming they never will, and are building their own SAMs. But Iran is already sanctioned and economically impaired, and is also financially supporting Assad's govt, for the last couple of years.

But Syria already has a very capable SAM force of its own and it really doesn't lack for capable SAM systems, except heavy long-range SAMs like S-300.

Even then it remains to be seen if any of these systems will be effective against the range and standoff weapons that will be used in a western air attack and the numbers that will keep coming.

Plus everything is tactical standoff now when threat systems are known to be in an area and drones can do the recon. So standoff weapons will be used and SAM engagements against launching aircraft would be rare anyway due to the minimizing of exposures within effective engagement ranges.

More likely than not the standoff precision air attacks will succeed quickly to kill most targets assigned. Using SAM rounds against small missiles and bombs (IDF Iron Dome style) will fail pretty quickly, even if it's a case of use it or lose it. The standoff weapons will just keep coming day and night in any weather.

You'd have to presume the air campaign will be highly successful given the lack of viable interceptors in Assad's inventory to engage and shoot down the launching aircraft. F-22s will also definitely be present (and are now), so they will be someone's priority engagement list from the moment they start to taxi.

So if it is to be won by Assad's Syria, Iran and Hezbollah it can only be won on the ground and by counter strikes with cruise and ballistic missiles, and perhaps a few air strikes, and helicopter attacks. But then western SAMs and fighters will eat them unless they also are using precision long-range standoff weapons.

Iran has plenty of those and so does Assad, even truck launched systems.

Obtaining current accurate targeting data is then the challenge to firing them effectively. Iran, Syria and Hezbollah all operate drones for that purpose. So Assad could still put up a fight and get some hits in. But unless there's a second front opened by Iran, and other aligned groups run spec-op style operations, then Assad's defense of Damascus would not last long. Ground forces will just smash their way into Damascus with heavy air support. And you can bet the Israeli's will be taking shots and engaging Hezbollah.

It really all depends on what Iran does. It has a lot of options and the IRGC are more likely than not to exercise them with a great deal of force and determination. It will get big and very damaging fast.

Examining issues without regard to the prevailing propaganda is incompatible with populism. Doing so really confuses people who take sides (>>95% of people).

So I'm more than OK with a populist electorate expressing one of the only two, provided democratic choices available to them, to proactively change the world around them for the better.  :-D

FUCK!

Yeah, you're correct.

'Swiftboat' Kerry and 'Songbird' McCain would be NOTHING without the money from their wives, by the way. FED-SCRIP sluts...

It'll take PARAMILITARY pressure now, to oust the American-Israeli Political Action Committee. There aren't enough people who think that termination with extreme prejudice is 'palatable', though. If the sheople can just hold on for a few more years, they can OWN the car that they wanted (which is 5 years hence in need of major repairs), or OWN the house they dreamed of (which was built with Chinese drywall), or OWN the 'AMERICAN DREAM' (while at the same time indebting their grandchildren ad infinitum).

Bush the Younger stated it the best (even BETTER than all the puppets of AIPAC): 'The Constitution is just a god-damned piece of paper'.

John Kohn Kerry has a 'yacht' (a gift from his wifey). He moved it out of Massachussetts so that he could get 'tax breaks'. Thereza Heinz (his wife) is heir to the Heinz Ketchup fortune, and funded 'La Raza' in 2004; via 'the Tides Foundation'. She actually is a FOREGN NATIONAL, don't you know...

Why must Assad be overthrown? That's a great question. The only thing that is clear is that since 1979 the US has had an unstated policy of overthrowing secular governments in the Middle East, and replacing them with Muslim extremist governments. So the question properly stated isn't, why are we overthrowing Assad? But, why are we overthrowing secular governments in favor of Muslim extremist governments?

If anybody is confused, look at the results: Iran, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Egypt, Turkey (peacefully), and Pakistan (peacefully)-- all have had secular governments undermined or overthrown, either with our explicit or implicit support.

Combine these facts, with the fact that we now have a Muslim president, and one must ask-- what the fuck is going on??

Philipat, exactly why does this man need to die, and why the hell are we in charge of that execution?  Who may oppose this unilateral execution, that should be addressed.  No matter how smart we think we are the Russians are NOT pussies millions of them will die if properly motivated.  Latakia may be that motivation, Alas Babylon.  Their technology and propaganda efforts are similar to ours in effectiveness.  Mr Ketchup never think you and yours will escape the effects of ww3.

Existing as one of the last nations on the face of the earth that has not allowed itself to become subservient to a privately-owned central bank, Syria now finds that national financial independence does not come without the price of presenting oneself as a preferred target for the banking cartels and the nations they control.

Tikrit is the writing on the wall: the only way for Iraq to survive is WITHOUT the U.S., who only intends to bleed it to death through various schemes. Either manufacutred Sunni/Shia wars, Iraqi/Kurd wars or another war with Iran. 

It must team up with a past and future victims of the U.S./Israel + Gulf States agression: Syria, Iran and the Kurds. All four, together, can easily kick fake ISIS and al Nusra's ass. They all know now that they can only exist as an alliance. They won't allow the U.S. to attack Syria. [Edit: Just my observation about how they appear to be acting now. The MSM has gone full-retard to explain how crucial the U.S. is to all of them and how they are all incompetent and weak without U.S. backing. I missed the obfuscation and the current spin they're putting on these issues. The MSM was hiding Tikrit, and now making it sound like something bad is happening, i.e., the MSM is losing control of the narrative in Iraq.]

Turkey is only interested in hosting pipelines and taking bribes. They can barely stand up against the Kurds, and will fail if any of Syria, Iraq or Iran back the Kurds.

Qatar and the Gulf States are basically Israel II to the Shia crest states. Those states, and the Kurds, will never forgive them for funding the fake ISIS. Saudi Arabia and Qatar will not exist in a few years. The U.S. worries about the Straits of Hormuz closing, but there's plenty of other ways to stop the flow of oil from the Gulf States. They are terribly exposed and vulnerable, and now they're all hated as much as Israel. Bad move.

Israel bet the farm on the Mosul-Haifa pipeline and their Leviathan to EU gas. Neither will happen because of their greed and arrogance. Nobody in the ME wil buy their gas from them. They will remain an angry, insignificant little nation hated by everyone except the phony 'friends' they pay for and own in the U.S.

The U.S./Israel and Gulf States have created their own demise in the Middle East. Russia, on the other hand, is well-positioned to build alliances with the Shia-crest countries that the U.S/Israel and Gulf States have fucked over. And in case anyone hasn't noticed, Russia is plenty pissed off at the U.S.

While the U.S. was playing checkers in the Middle East, Russia was playing chess. The U.S. 'won' a collapsing, corrput Ukraine and its failing government (soon to be replaced) while simultaneously losing the entire Middle East by being on the side of greedy, corrupt countries which directly resulted in the death of two million Arabs.

I have a neighbor that sent his son even after the dozens and dozens of hours of common dialogue on the topic. I see the desperation in his face...his son, 21 yrs old with no job and a college degree ENLISTS in the army as a grunt. Becoming an officer these days is seriously not easy with all the LGBT/chick/minority officer mustangs and recruitment campaigns. A white guy with a degree in history...used to be a sound start for a 2nd lieutenant in an infantry role... now relegates you to an infantryman, E-1 or E-2.

My neighbor felt this was all he could do for a jobless son...give him a handshake and wish him well.

Isis gives you the finger because they are supposed to in order to prompt military intervention. Do you think the west watched them drive across the desert in their original seige of iraq by accident?

 

The palpable sense of desperation in the west comes because isis and the other rebels ( jabhat al nusra ) in syria are collapsing. Time isnt on their side.

Recent moves by turkey and israel to blunt the syrian arab army confirm this.

Again, intervention in syria ( the world's leading force against terrorism ) will lead to ww3 and the western demonic vessels clearly want that.

Their timeline is being pushed as their jihadi army is in freefall.

I applaud ZH for being LEADING EDGE on this Syrian crisis which is perpetrated by the US-Israeli Axis.

However the fact is that the mainstream media is owned and operated by the Jewish community, which has a strong solidarity for their people, unlike the dozing Whites of the USSA. So the sheeple don't get ANY information except what the elite want them to get.

Republican Congress Rallies Around Patriot Leader. Too Bad He’s Not American.

It was politics as parody. With almost as much pomp and posturing as the State of the Union, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu addressed a Joint Session of Congress and delivered a speech that would have been called stridently nationalist if uttered by any European. The Republican leadership showed their willingness to openly insult the President of the United States by hosting a foreign head of state and giving him a reception as rapturous as anything ever enjoyed by Ronald Reagan or George W. Bush.

And then, just after the speech was over, the House Republicans promptly collapsed and handed Barack Obama the greatest policy victory of his second term by surrendering on his unilateral Executive Amnesty.

The example of Israel shows that immigration can be stopped, and quite easily too. (Of course, the Israeli effort also received an assist from useful idiot nations like Sweden who were willing to accept the Jewish state’s unwanted Africans).

Of course, there’s the elephant in the room: many Jewish organizations and individuals support nationalism for Israelis and, simultaneously, multiculturalism for Americans. A perfect example: Sheldon Adelson, who has essentially bought the Republican Party and committed it to a path of Open Borders even while championing a border fence for Israel.

Time To Rethink Martin Luther King Day By Peter Brimelow, former editor of Forbes magazine, on January 19, 2015

This comes naturally, because the Politically Incorrect fact is that neither the Left`s black, Hispanic or Jewish components have any strong tradition of free speech. The question is whether they can cow the historic American nation into accepting its subjugation.
Diversity is not strength: it is weakness.

Assad, his wife and children are Whites who celebrate Christmas. No wonder Obongo and his handlers want him GONE.
And the REAL Overlords of the USSA get everything, all the time, it was like when the bailouts to the Banksters on the Upper Eastside of Manhattan, real estate SKYROCKETED in Tel Aviv.

This is from 2003, the gentleman who wrote it then died at the age of 40 from a "heart attack" perhaps. The cost of Israel to the American taxpayer at that time was $3 TRILLION

Big fucking deal if he was a commie sympathizer - that doesn't nullify the truth that came out of his mouth, now does it?  And while we are at it, this commie sympathizer called bullshit a year to the day prior to his assasination when he said that the military industrial complex is directly responsible for the oppression of the brown/black man and all the bad shit that got unleashed on America before and after.  

Say what you want, bitchez, but you know he was taken out for speaking the truth.  So what if he liked his women?  I know of many popes who sired entire houses of heirs.   

Brimelow is a racialist shit masquerading behind interpretations of statistical social studies that have a wide range of unconstrained parameters.  Don't fall for this crap unless you are one of those racialist whitey-knows-best-because-he-is-awesome types.  Going after MLK is just one of those things racialist whitey feels the need to do to prove that he is superior to the brown man.

As in most cases (historically and in the present) I would say the latter. Only the truly evil could contemplate using religion (any religion) for personal gain, seems to work great on leading crowds around by the nose while wrapping oneself in a false cloak of dignity & piety...lol.

And thats not a statement that I'm irreligious or atheistic (because I'm not) its just an observable fact. The truly observant would be as humble and compassionate as he is stoic and unyielding on his principles.

Who's next in this genocidal clusterfuck?

Russia and China might not play nice.

It's kind of exciting to anticipate an S-400 missile flying up the snot locker of the Military Industrial Complex.

It'll be Keynesian as hell.

Nice face phony.  You're just jealous because your former business partner isn't married to a hag like you are.

Didn't this (i'm sorry to swear, but this time deserved) g_d d-m f-cker throw his medals back?     I can, at this distance, just barely make out a case for stoping the Viet Cong, considering the millions of refugees their victory produced.

Whether you like him or not, Assad is the bulwark the West has against Sunni extremists.   And for hundreds of thousands of non-Sunni's, the only real protection they have from beheading.  And kick over that little ant pile so you can make, what, another Libya?

Ever notice how ol' horsey face has no real lips to speak of?  He just has a sort of horizontal slit in his lower face from which a never ending flow of horseshit and lies issues.

Obama is a war mongering madman. He is going to push a new war in Ukraine by May 1st. He now speaks of an American military invasion of Syria. While he plans to send the army to Iraq to confront an ISIS that British and American aircraft have been dropping supplies to as confirmed by Iraqi military members and parliament members. The Ukrainian hit of Nemsov in Moscow used a female SBU agent to guid the man to his execution. Giving the liar media of Washington one more excuse to proceed with war agisnt Russia.

Obama, liberals still support him, conservatives claim to hate him, but support every one of his war moves. Obama will turn the coming summer into a season of war on a grand scale. Stay tuned for the summer of 2015, it will be a summer of American war.

If Bammy and Mr. Ed actually full-on go into Ukraine and Syria, I believe that Vlad will go tactical nuke on their ass.

Syria is extremely important to Vlad.

The hoodie community organizer has absolutely no clue what he's playing with.

At least we now have a certified smart guy as SECDEF, instead of a halfwitted political hack. That's something, unless he goes McNamera on us.

Obama/Kerry are running out of time. They need to pull off their scheme in the next 10 months. They won't want to stir the pot for the 2016 Democrat candidate with anything major against Syria.

How the hell did John Kerry escape being president.  The man is a brain.  Ah yes, any lunatic can become president of the USA.  

As long as you can say Kill, kill, kill you'll do fine.

It was not that long ago that Kerry had a shiner.  So did Reid.  Hiliary had her accident.  I cannot help but wonder if these politicians are not being attacked.  Literally beat up by those calling the shots, the ones with all the cash at the top of this theatrical performance we find ourselves in.

There's should be a lot of S-400s in place when Assad declares Syria a no-fly zone.  The non-American flyers of NATO won't test the Russian tech but our glory guys probably will.

Syria will be the Spanish Civil War of WWIII.

I see these US gov Pricks don't even bother to mention reasons. The Chemical weapon used by Assad was a flop (no one ever mention about this emarrasing shit), Assad shooting his own people, turned to be a flop too (a propos of US support  of Nazi in ukraine, killing civillians in East, better not to mention). So why? What is the reason to remove Assad?

Obviously they want a Libya scenario. They are so fucking sick in their heads and souls

The idiot 5-year planners in Washington thought they could produce enough fracked energy to walk away from ME oil. Therefore let loose the dogs of war and get the Muslim world all fighting amongst themselves.

The Saudis realised that America's math only worked at $100/barrel. So they forced the price down.

Now US foreign policy has blown up in their own faces. A US clusterf*~#

Bad times ahead.
