US Commandos Raid Syria To Kill ISIS "Gas Minister" Identified By Damascus As Saudi Citizen
Days after Obama's official account of the May 2011 bin Laden execution had been severely jeopardized by Seymour Hersh's latest report, and when even official media outlets were forced to admit the White House's story was fabricated before being forced to retract, overnight the administration served its latest distraction to the American people when first thing this morning the press was ablaze with reports that US commandos had raided the eastern Syria town of al-Amr, where they killed a senior Islamic State commander, identified as one Abu Sayyaf, ISIS' "oil minister" in charge of the Islamic State's oil and gas operations.
And since no US forces were killed or injured in this latest US intervention in a sovereign nation under the guise of fighting global terrorism, it was a happy ending for all those who staged the incursion, or as may be the case once again, merely "staged" the entire story.
As AP reports, while the U.S.-led coalition has been striking Islamic State militants in Syria since last year, this was only the second time troops have carried out a ground raid. A previous operation last summer was aimed at rescuing Americans held hostage by the group, but failed to recover any.
Below is the White House statement by NSC spokesperson Bernadette Meehan on the Operation in Syria:
Last night, at the President’s direction, U.S. personnel based out of Iraq conducted an operation in al-Amr in eastern Syria to capture an ISIL senior leader known as Abu Sayyaf and his wife Umm Sayyaf. During the course of the operation, Abu Sayyaf was killed when he engaged U.S. forces.
Umm Sayyaf was captured and is currently in U.S. military detention in Iraq. The operation also led to the freeing of a young Yezidi woman who appears to have been held as a slave by the couple. We intend to reunite her with her family as soon as feasible.
No U.S. personnel were killed or injured during this operation.
Abu Sayyaf was a senior ISIL leader who, among other things, had a senior role in overseeing ISIL’s illicit oil and gas operations – a key source of revenue that enables the terrorist organization to carry out their brutal tactics and oppress thousands of innocent civilians. He was also involved with the group’s military operations. We suspect that Umm Sayyaf is a member of ISIL, played an important role in ISIL’s terrorist activities, and may have been complicit in the enslavement of the young woman rescued last night.
The President authorized this operation upon the unanimous recommendation of his national security team and as soon as we had developed sufficient intelligence and were confident the mission could be carried out successfully and consistent with the requirements for undertaking such operations. This operation was conducted with the full consent of Iraqi authorities and, like our existing airstrikes against ISIL in Syria, consistent with domestic and international law.
We are working to determine an ultimate disposition for the detainee that best supports the national security of the United States and of our allies and partners, consistent with domestic and international law. We will follow our usual practice with respect to giving the ICRC notification and access to the detainee.
As Commander-in-Chief, the President is grateful to the brave U.S. personnel who carried out this complex mission as well as the Iraqi authorities for their support of the operation and for the use of their facilities, which contributed to its success. The United States will continue to stand shoulder-to-shoulder with our Iraqi partners in our effort to degrade and ultimately destroy ISIL.
Some more details on the US version of events from CNN:
There was hand-to-hand combat during the operation, which was helicopter-borne, the sources told CNN.
About a dozen ISIS fighters were killed in the firefight at a residential building in Deir Ezzor, the sources said.
Meanwhile, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, a London-based monitoring group, said at least 19 ISIS militants had been killed by coalition bombing targeting ISIS' location in al-Omar oil field in eastern Deir Ezzor in the early hours of Saturday.
As a reminder, the "Syrian Observation for Human Rights" is the UK-funded outlet that periodically releases fabricated YouTube clips of Syrian chemical attacks.
What is curious is that according to the White House the incursion into Syrian territory was "consistent with domestic and international law" and was "conducted with the full consent of Iraqi authorities." Which is odd because last time we checked, Syria was not in Iraq. Must be one of those US-exemption loopholes that apply to "domestic and interenational law" we have heard so much about.
So did the US coordinate with Syria?
"The U.S. government did not coordinate with the Syrian regime, nor did we advise them in advance of this operation," said Meehan said.
"We have warned the Assad regime not to interfere with our ongoing efforts against ISIL inside of Syria," she said, using an alternative acronym for Islamic State. "The Assad regime is not and cannot be a partner in the fight against ISIL."
Oh, that international law.
But what is most curious is that even before the official US report, Syrian state TV reported that Syrian government forces killed at least 40 IS fighters, including a senior commander in charge of oil fields, in an attack Saturday on the country's largest oil field -- held by IS. It identified the commander as Abu al-Teem al-Saudi. The name indicates he was a Saudi citizen.
Even more curious, the U.S. did not provide the full name of the militant identified as Abu Sayyaf. There was no information immediately available on jihadist websites. In fact all the US has said is that Sayyaf was a "senior ISIL leader who, among other things, had a senior role in overseeing ISIL's illicit oil and gas operations -- a key source of revenue that enables the terrorist organization to carry out their brutal tactics and oppress thousands of innocent civilians."
As CNN further adds, "Abu Sayyaf is not a name familiar to many ISIS watchers."
Is that perhaps because it was completely made up?
Last time we checked, however, even senior ISIL leaders have official passports belonging to official countries. The suggestion is that said ISIL leader was neither Syrian nor Iraqi but Saudi Arabian.
So in short: both the US and Syria agree that there was a fight overnight in which a senior ISIS leader was killed following a firefight with either US or Syrian forces, a leader who the US has not fully identified, and which the Syrian claim is a gentleman with the name of Abu al-Teem al-Saudi.
Suddenly the recent snubbing of Obama by Saudi King Salman makes much more sense.
The only question is if now that ISIS' oil minister - Saudi or not - is out of the picture and Saudi Arabia the "terrorist regime" can no longer flood the world market with ultra cheap oil to crush US shale producers, will this have a proportional impact on the price of oil?

the narrative in this administration increasily looks like Trudeau's Red Rascal, a keyboard commando.
"We have warned the Assad regime not to interfere with our ongoing efforts against ISIL inside of Syria," NSC Spokesperson Meehan
"We have warned the Assad regime not to interfere with our insertion of troops inside of the sovereign nation of Syria..." What Meehan said cryptically.
Here’s another piece of useless news.
Bahrain’s King Khalifa, who just a few days ago cancelled his visit to the Camp David’s Gulf Summit, is sending his ministers to Moscow where they are supposed to sign a whole lot of military deals.
Are they, the Arabs, getting’ ready to get rid of the petrodollar and looking for protection? ;-)
Looney
P.S. By the way, there are 2 US bases in Bahrain.

HOW MUCH Did He Con-Tribute To Hillaries Charity ???
I bet Brian Williams was there covering the story
It's all about the oil. People be damned.
I believe its more about the banksters and the debt-money system than anything else.........
How does one make the debt grow?......welfare and WARFARE
Yeah it's so hard to believe the State just needs to grow like the cancer it is and needs to expand internationally as stealing and killing at home aren't enough. Do people just try to pretend that WS runs the world so they don't feel as betrayed and stupid by their dear leaders?
What's even more funny is that next week the Guy they claimed died will be found on some tropical island having his way with some island girls.
And come November 2016 he will be on the ballot under a different name as VP.
"at the President's direction"
Question: Had the mission failed would we still be told that it was at the President's direction? Or would the failure been blamed on someone else?
Zero Hedge loses credibility when it start whining on the behalf of ISIS - referring to ISIS as a sovereign nation (the part in this article where it bemoans commandos interferring with a "sovereign nation's government" by kiling an ISIS rep) - when it was actually ISIS that interefered with Syria's sovereignty.
The US just invited itself in and started killing people. By your kind of reasoning, it would be perfectly permissible for Syria to sneak commandos into the us under the guise of looking Mexican drug dealers. After all the Mexican cartels are the violators of sovereignty, right? Right?
Go ahead and wag the shit out of it, but the dog is dead.
Drop your cocks, grab your socks, the leaders want to make life a perpetual state of war...
This is the red line, no more mr nice guy, gloves are off.
Tomato plants are coming inside.
so now what?
Sending commandos to a foreign country such as Syria can be construed as an act of aggression. There are no laws internationally or nationally that authorize such behavior. Zero Hedge simply points out that the act was illegal, and that the target was possibly a Saudi. Therefore, we can expect continued conflict with the House of Saud over the issue. These conflicts could grow and jeopardize the foundation of the petro-dollar. something we should all be worrying over.
Really?
So who's "sovereignty" was violated here Mr law guy?
ISIS's?
Can't wait for Yemen to attack Saudi Arabia again now that both Iran and SA want to see them all starve and die.
King Fagtard and the Moullahs with Zero Hedge screaming "hooray!" all the way.
Reading for comprehension is clearly a skill which has remained beyond the grasp of Joe Trader.
The claim of "whining on the behalf of ISIS" cannot be supported by the content of the article.
Comprehension failure, bigtime. The word "sovereign" appears in the article exactly once. The phrase "latest US intervention in a sovereign nation" in the second paragraph refers to an incident which was described in the first paragraph.
What was the incident? A US commando raid.
What was raided? A town called al-Amr.
Where is al-Amr? It is in eastern Syria.
All of this information is in the first paragraph. The sovereign nation referred to is, and can only be, Syria.
First of all, the phrase that you quoted, "sovereign nation's government", does not appear anywhere in the article. Second, the commandos were intervening in, not interfering with, a sovereign nation. The phrase "in a sovereign nation" is describing a geographic location, not a government.
As an aside, it is interesting that you believe that ISIS could be referred to as a "sovereign nation's government". I doubt that such a belief is widely held.
Isolated from the rest of your comment, this would be correct. However, in the context of the article, this is incorrect, as it was the US which interfered with Syria's sovereignty.
That's not a president it's a stupid cocksucking queer who lied into stealing a position.
What ISIS oil empire is there left to administer?
In case anyone forgot, we destroyed the Syrian... er, ISIS modular refineries in the area on Sept. 24th of 2014. 200 precision-guided bombs and 50 Tomahawks to soften up the oil targets, followed by this:
So even though we could probably maintain 24x7 surveilance on this imaginary oil minister guy and Hellfire his ass ANYTIME we wanted, we instead wait several months and perform a noisy, obvious special ops raid on his presumably very heavily-guarded location, lose no choppers or troops of our own, and manage to kill the former oil minister as he cowers behind his wife and a slave? No ISIS head-choppers in the entire area notices the U.S. helicopters or bothers to light them up with an few RPGs (or a U.S.-supplied TOW-2As)? Does the number two man in ISIS use a handful of mall rent-a-cops to guard his house? Is he completely oblivious to the fact that he's under 24x7 drone surveilance and can be taken out whenever Obama wants? Instead, he sits around in his ex-oil empire sans refining capability, relatively unguarded, with his wife and slave doing... well, what? Waiting for Blackhawks of SF guys to bum-rush him? OK... sure.
Syria has jack shit in terms of oil, genius.
No. They do have oil, its just not being exported due to sanctions.
http://www.eia.gov/countries/cab.cfm?fips=sy
"The Oil & Gas Journal estimated Syria's proved reserves of oil at 2.5 billion barrels as of January 1, 2014, a total larger than all of Syria's neighbors except for Iraq. Much of Syria's crude oil is heavy (low gravity) and sour (high sulfur content), making the processing and refining of Syrian crudes difficult and expensive. Further, because of sanctions placed on Syria by the European Union in particular—which accounted for the vast majority of Syrian oil exports previously—there are a limited number of markets available that can import and process the heavier Syrian crudes. As such, the loss of oil export capabilities has severely limited Syrian government revenues, particularly the lost access to European markets, which in 2011 imported $3.6 billion worth of oil from Syria, according to news reports."
Syria's oil production, which averaged over 400,000 barrels per day (bbl/d) between 2008 and 2010, was less than 25,000 bbl/d in January 2014.
The oil is minimal, especially for the middle east. Go look at US oil/gas production compared to Syria and then tell me the US needs to invade them for it. What a simpleton view.
But you did not say minimal, you said they don't have 'jack shit".
In 2011 Syria was exporting $3.2 billion of oil to Europe. That revenue, not an insignificant sum to a country in need of cash, has now dried up.
I was merely pointing out the lack of precision in your comment.
All the best!!!
2.5 billion barrels divided by 1000 barrels per second (world consumption roughly) comes out to about 29 days. Sounds like jack shit to me in the grand scheme of things.
That is jack shit. The cost of the war has surpassed many times that of the oil.
And war funding comes from....
american express
not
And you're the genius, you were just proved wrong.
Every country has a tiny amount of hydrocarbons. If you couldn't understand the context of my statement that's pathetic or you guys are really reaching after making an assinine claim that a country with a drop of oil will be invaded for it. Roger: your table needs more napkins.
it's not being invaded for oil, or for Qatari pipelines [good luck building anything lots of people with explosives don't want]
it is being destroyed, as was Iraq, and Balkanized, as is Iraq.
For Israel.
The Oded Yinon plan, which was updated with "A Clean Break" and PNAC's Americanized version "Rebuilding America's Defenses" - the paper that called for a new pearl harbor of september 11, 2000. These people are so brazen and arrogant because the media is in their pocket.
The fuckery also started weeks after Iran and Iraq and Syria signed an agreement regarding gas transit. Gas from Iran competing with Israel's [and Lebanon/Syria/Palestine gas they will steal] Leviathan gas find? No.
The US government is absolutely owned by Jewish Zionists with a small pocket of power remaining with the WASP blue blood realists who are scarecely better.
None of this, by the way, should seem outlandish.

The Qatari pipeline story is nonsense - the idea is there's a surface story, the US is promoting freedom and democracy and fighting terror - all while doing the opposite, then to appease the less trusting, a story that it is about money and rich Arabs is put forward.
But the real story is Israel's Oded Yinon Plan, and its desire to weaken Iran and not have to compete with their gas sales to Europe. They would hardly let Qatari gas compete with their Leviathan find, and the Israelis/Jews run Congress - not the gulf dictatorships - they are there to buy weapons and supply jihadi mercs.

By the way, Blair's motives were much the same
http://www.scotsman.com/news/politics/top-stories/dalyell-zionist-cabal-...
Oded Yinon is a journalist. Not "his" plan.
And it is failling. It has been failing since Menahem Begin gave back the Sinai to Egypt and Sharon got out of Gaza and the IDF retreated from Lebanon and half the west bank was given to the palestinians and no Israeli can go there.
Say what you want about plans for the future but so far, the territory under Israeli control shrinks decade by decade.
Yeah,
That $3 billion a year could not amount to Jack Shit.
Nice proof.
You don't think that amount is a fucking pittance? Really? lol. Too many people clueless of the world here.
It is not a pittance to a child who could not get treatment because Syria does not have the funds to rebuild a hospital bombed by rebels.
It all depends on perspective.
http://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/middle-east/hospital-bombed-by-r...
Fuck you for playing the "its for the children" card rather than refuting Randy's point. Hospitals! Lol.
Syria's oil barely sufficed for internal consumption and only a little bit was exported, on the order of 1 or 2% of what Saudi Arabia exports.
Fuck yourself and other hasbra trolls.
Yeah, I remember being an idiot twenty-something too.
true but the have large tracts of land that would be ideal for a Saudi/Qatar pipeine to run north through
Saudi's snubbed the Prez so we killed one.
Sounds like progress to me.
It's the pipeline route. Remember?
Today Syria's special forces raided Billings Montana to take out a key repuplican ,Wow would Americans be pissed if it was done to us. Well 90% would not give a shit as they are all brain dead.
I wouldn't give a shit. However, I would stand and cheer if Syrian commandos went around killing banksters. I'd love to see them go to the source and kill their real enemy. Not some low level lackey, like a MT repub.
As for the Gulf States: They'll be riding Camels in 100 years and 19/20ths of their population will starve and/or die of thirst for lack of imported bottled water.
The blackgold wells will dry. Construction will stop, the migrant workers will be sent home or executed, and most of their citizens who don't die will flee to the West or anywhere with water that will accept them.
All else will return to the desert, just as it always has.
They've got it coming if they do.
Yemen has 22 million people. And they just want them all dead?
No wonder Israel loves the House of Saud so much.
Still...Yemen awaits the formal invasion.
What's the matter Colonel Sanders....

Somewhat off topic: CNN reported that Abu Sayyaf's wife was involved in human trafficking. It seems like I have been hearing a lot more about human trafficking lately, especially a lot of local news stores on human trafficking problems here in Iowa. I'm just wondering if anyone else has noticed this in other parts of the US. The Senate just happened (coincidentally?) to pass S.178 the "Justice for Victims of Traficking Act" in April, and is headed for the House.
Check out sections 106 and 302 involving expanding DOJ surveillance and ICE getting a Cyber Crimes Center.
https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/114/s178/summary
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2015/04/22/anti-human-trafficking-bill-p...
From the above article...
"The amendments that did get attached to the bill passed with little controversy, though one, by Sen. Mark Kirk, R-Ill., drew concerns from at least one advocacy group. The measure would make it illegal for websites or social media sites to "knowingly" sell advertisements for sex services involving minors. A pro-privacy group, the Center for Democracy and Technology, said the measure was so vaguely written that it potentially makes every U.S. company that hosts web content subject to criminal prosecution."
The signs are up on the west coast, but so far nobody is home. the MSM hasn't picked up the issue, i imagine its what has always happened with the immigrant traffic through mexico, people pay huge amounts of money for smugglers to get them over the border. of course once you are here without connections you aren't likely to do too well. the issue gets attention as it pertains to sex trafficing, esp minors, but i imagine if you are poor and you pay a lot of money that you will get a job of some kind and a place to stay. for a time the trafficing victims were men kidnapped in mexico and sent to northern california to grow marijuana on government land. the cartel threatened to kill their families at home, so they had to work, often for nothing. the issue is wide and allows for a lot of minor things, like a form of indentured servitude, which is the way a lot of people came to America a few hundred years ago. and the problem interfaced with drug trafficing, the pongo boats pull onto Mitt Romneys beach in La Jolla, and the immigrants get off and head inland, and someone usually has a bale of MJ. probably just to make expenses. i am sure the pols will write some stupid law about this. if you come here to practise the oldest profession you might as well head to manhattan, seriously what you think spitzer was paying his mistress. you can always get a job in housekeeping if that doesnt work.and what you call a minor in the US and a minor in latin america arent the same thing. sure we are all against sex trafficing, but we also against bad legislation.
Evidently Houston has a huge problem with the trafficers and the fomer Mayor Parker [?] appointed a special committe to meet with the Feds and State Troopers to catch some of these gangs. The report said it involves mainly hispanic girls [of all ages] but they also smuggle Asians thru mexico then up to Merika.
Crazy stuff, eh. I'm not sure why we have so many resources overseas when we can use more here.
Being in the military, I know why we have human trafficking resources and shit overseas. We get briefed on it all the time.
It's just bad news whenever any serviceman is caught with a prostitute in a foreign country. It makes us all look bad, and when it goes south (not if), then it can lead to all kinds of foreign relations problems.
Of course, guys in the Secret Service and the DEA can go to Brazil and fuck minors while just getting a slap on the wrist. If I did that shit, I'd be in a prison gulag for 50 years, breaking rocks like Rambo. If you don't wear a uniform 100% of the time, you're just a high paid civilian with all the perks and no drawbacks. Like accountability.
Human trafficing is a Mohammadin approved and sanctioned practice. Probably the last real identifiable group where it is widely regarded as acceptable.
Why the downvotes? Slavery is acceptable to Islam.
Goys make good slaves, too. Just ask the Russian Christians after the fall of the Czar. The ones that were left . . .
Organ grinder Warren Buffett told Obama that Buffett's Burlington Northern Santa Fe depends on Bakken Oil shale oil to fill up BNSF tanker cars. So, hearing that the Syrians had killed a top al Qaeda leader, working for the Saudis and OPEC, Obama's SSRI doped up generals claimed credit for the killing, misnaming the dead jihadist.

WTF is going on? ISIS founded and funded by America is going rogue? Was the minister cowering behind his wives while porn played on his computer?
ISIS: The jihadist movement stamped “Made in America”The fact remains, however, that the US, the major European powers, and their regional allies all previously lent financial, military and political support to ISIS and similar groups, which have “Made in the USA” stamped all over them. They have, until now, played a significant part in Washington’s efforts to overthrow the regime of President Bashar al-Assad in Syria, as part of a broader effort to gain control of the region’s vast energy resources and transit routes.
The Western powers, flush with success after organising an Islamist insurgency in Benghazi in order to justify NATO’s overthrow of Muammar Gaddafi in Libya, thought they could use similar forces to overthrow Assad in Syria, whose regime draws its main base of support from the Alawite sect, a Shi’a offshoot, and Sunni businessmen.
For three years, the US, along with the Gulf states and Turkey, poured billions into “opposition” groups, supposedly to unnamed “moderates,” but in reality to Al Qaeda-linked Sunni groups such as al-Nusra and ISIS to spearhead a sectarian war. The US, Turkey and Jordan have operated a base in Jordan where US instructors trained dozens of ISIS members. In an article last year, the New York Times confirmed that the CIA assisted Arab governments and Turkey by airlifting weaponry to these groups in Jordan and Turkey. The Guardian reported last March that British and French instructors were also involved.
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2014/07/30/isis-j30.html
All True. ISIS came from nothing to the biggest terror army on earth. How? Only with USA money and help!
6 A-10s could have made mincemeat out of that column that US satellites surely picked up some time back. That is clear and convincing evidence the US is not seriously opposed to ISIS. SEveral Iraqi generals explicitly said, as has Iran, both of which have better intel than either the US or Israel in Syria, that ISIS is backed by the US or 'the west'. Israeli and the House of Saud are involved to varying degrees.
Here's the thing - if we had anything like a free press, someone would at a minimum be asking questions about the things that don't add up. Nobody in the MSM is, and for some time yet, they can get away with controlling the MSM narrative and discrediting the alternative media. If Alex Jones is not a paid asset of someone...
So, this is frightening. You have the us mil and intel supporting terrorists to destroy Syria. You have them doing much the same in Ukraine. You have Israeli sayanim well dispersed in State and CIA.
There needs to be a revolution, but not on the streets of the US [who wants concentration camps and lots of fellow Americans, even shithead left wingers or clueless pro-israel zioxians getting killed needlessly?] - there needs to be a civil war/coup within cia, dia, within .mil.

The plot thickens; the US and their allies cannot protect Palmyre and have lost a strategic post in Iraq to ISIS, but now this to pretend we the West are winning.
Read "the spy who came in from the cold" and you'll understand how the man the enemy think is the "traitor" is in fact the contrary and the man who has been re-instated is in fact the "plant". That's a bit what the US plays in Syrac. Enemy and friend are totally interchangeable, as what is the basic rule in this game of spooks and oil patrolmen, is forever : the game must go on ! Period. How can any local tribesman know what he will do tomorow as he is toxic sand in the hands of predatory forces. Fukushima does its peacefully, Syrac does it in shock and awe.
Who pulls the strings is now a game of billiards with the US, Iran and Saud each having their own spooks and gooks to control or to turmoil the oil patch. As the Russians, the Assadians and Israel look on like vultures of prey circling the forever bloody plains of mincemeated flesh of innocents who are entrapped collateral. No place for honest men. Divide and dismember there, as they the so called "ally" divide and dismember the shale patch !
Tit for tat ?
The USA warns Syria not to interfere with their fight against ISIS . WTF? Iran, Syria, Yemen , Libya were all against terrorism but seems like the only one allowed to fight terrorists is the USA.
or, could it be perhaps that the terrorists are actually funded, trained and controlled by CIA/Mossad?
I choose the latter and truly think all the beheadings and crap are pure theatre.
After all, ISIS supposedly parades around in broad daylight in new Toyotas and white Nike shoes, If the USA was serious they could just carpet bomb the crap out of them ,.
Notice the Middle East is awash with mad terorists, tens of thousands of them, and not one of them EVER even thinks of an attack on Israel or Middle East Jews. Funny, I thought Israel was their great satan. They only attack Arabs and America's enemies! What does that tell you. ISIS never touchs an Israeli.

The middle east is not located under your bed. It is not "awash" with terrorists. The terrorists/freedom fighters at the borders of Israel cannot just hop across and attack. Or actually, that happens all the time in the form of minor border skirmishes in Sinai and the Golan. Every couple of years the skirmishes turn into a large battle that usually involves thousands of shitty rockets raining in Israel, lots of bombing on Lebanon or Gaza, half a hundred dead israeli troops and 2000 dead arabs of different backgrounds.
It never changes. What is is this tale that no attacks against Israel take place?
I see. Nothing short of the ISIS army marching into Tel Aviv counts as an attack.
Heres why it could never happen even if ISIS was not not the israeli secret intelligence service: Because ISIS is a relatively small, weak force absolutely unable to take on the IDF in any meaningful way. The same can be said of the Syrian army and of Hezbollah, who always plays defense.
Nobody can just march an army into Israel. If it ever got that serious, they would get nuked.
Hezbollah kicked the IDF's ass in 2006 in Lebanon.

Norman Finkelstein talks about how Hezbollah beat Israel in 2006.

What does "kicking ass" even means? Killing 100 Israeli soldiers and stopping the IDF in their tracks so they turned around and walked 30 miles back to Israel? Hardly Stalingrad material.
Hezbollah only plays defense. Not that theres anything wrong with that. Its their strong point. It cannot march into Israel and neither can ISIS nor any arab army. Apparently neither can Israel march into Lebanon, to a minor point, because israeli troops do not give a shit about Lebanon anyway and turn around if it gets serious.
But all of Israel wars as for the past 20 years follow the same patron.
Weekly border skirmishes escalate into mutual bombings. Israel usually does the bulk of the bombing and killing on a 10:1 or 20:1 ratio. A truce is agreed to and they start over again in 2 years.
The IDF is only good at what it trains to do - killing captive civilians in the Gaza concentration camp.
Hasbra troll,go fuck little children.
But we only killed him once. I seem to remember American military geniuses killing "The number3 man in the Taliban" again and again.
You are confusing him with the Number 2 man in Al Qaeda. We killed him every week.
If you believe the American media.
They're being trained to emote, instead of think and naturally laugh at a stupid clown.
F**king Bozo the Clown would be George Washington compared to this douchebag, any of the Bushes or any of the Clintons.
Jimmy Carter and Reagan were angels compared to the scum that has been selected over the past 25+ years
Ah, William, I hope they pay you $167,000,000 for the original, to hang in the Obozo Museum in Chi-town.
We finally got our boots on the ground.
Why not just use a drone?
So THATS why John Kerry was in Sochi, he was giving Putin advanced warning of this assignation to prevent any misunderstanding. Perhaps there is hope for US/Russia diplomacy yet.
“Sir, I bring you this hand-delivered important message. Our news networks will run a fabricated Langley fairy story of heroic deeds by top-caliber undercover agents keeping America safe by liquidating surplus terrorists.”
I likes it, this is the best conspiracy theory I've seen on ZH: the excess oil Saudi Arabia is dumping on the world market to undercut the frackers, is ISIS oil!
And President Zero authorized a raid against it because, well, I guess because he hates oil!
Green against black!
So now our Special Forces are doing pure assassination raids, killing guys who are not even fighting against against us but are just members of the some insurgent group fighting in a civil war in some random shit-hole dysfunctional country where we have minimal interests.
We've slid so far down the slippery slope of arbitrary and absolute executive power that we are drowning in the cesspool at the bottom.
ISIS=Keyser Soze . Watch the film ''The Usual Suspects''
The headline I want to see is ''Sen. John McCain's head exploded by sniper bullet''
The downvote must be ISIS sympathizer.
That headline will read, "Sniper bullet bounced off senator's head" A miracle that experts can't explain.
Our Next Mideast War—Syria
By Patrick J. BuchananMay 14, 2015
Go Hezbollah. I suggest arming those 100,000 missiles with GAS.
Good luck having another war with Hezbollah. The one in 2006 did not work out so well for Israel.
Norman Finkelstein an American Jew talking about how people have a right to defend their country. He also talks about how the IDF lost to Hezbollah.

Hezbollah has fought with the Syrian Army to protect all Syrians including Syrian Christians from being murdered by these paid ISIS/Al Qeada and NUSRA mercenaries.
I hope the House of Saud gets taken out for the misery they have caused in the Middle East.

Yeah Rock Steady that Norman Finkelstein is Mustard the Dogs Bollocks.
The ZioCons Hate him but he is well aware that the NetanYahoots are in the long run damaging the stability of the Middle East including Israel.
Was interested to view an RT Documentary on Ukraine co-produced by Joel Silberman whose uncle is Gene Wilder ( changed from Jerome Silberman who describes himself as Jewish- Buddhist- Atheist ).
Throw in the late great Mr Aaron Swartz and that's 3 people who are Jews (4 if you enjoyed Wilder's Work ) and were/are committed to fighting the Cabal.
As i have indicated in many posts we need as many jews muslims, christians, whites , blacks, yellows, females, other genders on the same team to have half a chance to defeat this EVIL.
Just my opinion but i think worth considering as everyone of the above need some incentive or encouragement to come out of their shells.
Looks like we're going to have a Summer of Incursions.
Didn't some of us expect feel-good heroic victory stories against the ISIS strawmen when they first popped into existence from the dark arse of Langley in 2013? The propaganda value of "Wins" against a dastardly foe whenever the great unwashed need to be distracted from their hunger pangs and debts cannot be underestimated. I thought the "victories" against ISIS woud come thick and fast in the media, but obviously things are so bad at home they need to extend the drama and kick this can as far into the future as they can, just like eveything else.
I would not be surprised if a buxom woman fighter pilot got shot down over Syria and had to be rescued by the special forces this Summer as another blockbuster event in the diary of the Ministry of Truth. Shot in glorious technicolor and reported by Brian Williams embedded in the buttock cheeks of a green beret.
This is going to end in tears and tantrums when a chopper full of special forces get shot down by the Syrian air defense. They already shot a US drone (Probably a Reaper) down in March, if I remember correctly.
Call a spade a spade.
Barry has a DEATH SQUAD.
Don't they all? Bush, Clinton etc etc. ( Vince Foster) ask Killary about that.
Call a hoe , a hoe.
Listening Killary?>
Isn't it amazing how we believe any headline that is reported by major news media?
I also believe anything said to me by a woman with huge tits.
preach it, brother!
This is a joke. ISIS was an off shoot of the US anti Assad Army training program. Links between the CIA - ISIS - and a Swiss Bank Account are public. The very idea that the USA is at war with ISIS is a joke. No, it's not war, it is an attempt by Washington to force ISIS to direct it's power against enemies of Washington. Like Assad, Lebanon, Russia, and the Stans in Central Asia. THAT is where the USA wants ISIS to fight on Washington's secret terror wars.
Americans are past being stupid. Now they are just silly. To believe the horse shit CNN shovels. The fuckers are paid liars. Washington has direct ties to Al-Qaeda and ISIS, and all the other terror armies running around nations America destroyed. Look at Libya! And also, ISIS have been detected by Rebel Intelligence working in Ukraine with Nazi Volunteer Battalions on the battle fields of East Ukraine. ISIS in Ukraine? Only the USA could get them there.
Oh fuck it! Tune in to CNN and believe what they tell you America. Believe the stream of lies. CNN news is actually written and editited by CIA operatives. Years ago a CIA director admitted they had hundreds of agents in editorial staffs across western media. BBC! CNN! FOX! NYT! Washington Post! USA Today! The whole fucking lot of them are writing to a CIA script.
All roads lead to Tel Aviv who actually control Washington.
I remember Bill going for a "routine brain operation".
I told my wife,"They are going to kill this fucker off".
His canoe murder was investigated by some people and their is video on youtube somewhere. It was a professional hit but they made some mistakes. No cops in Maryland were going to do anything anyway.
He danced with the Devil and paid the price.
A couple of years ago, Netanyahu addressed US Congress and got 37 standing ovations. This at the same time that Obomber was in England kissing the ring of the Queen.
Never before in American history has a Head of State done that with the President out of the country.
Thats all you need to know who really controls the USA.

"The Empire lies continuously. It lies in the morning, during the day, in the evening, even at night, when most of the people are sound asleep. It has been doing it for decades and centuries. For grand deceits it relies on countless numbers of propagandists who pose as academics, teaches, journalists and “public intellectuals”. Perfection in the art of disinformation has been reached. Western advertising (so much admired and used by the German Nazis) has some common roots with propaganda, although propaganda is much older and “complete”.
It appears that even some leaders of the Empire now believe in most of their fabrications, and most of the citizens certainly do. Otherwise, how could they sleep at night?
The western propaganda apparatus is enormously efficient and effective. It is also brilliant in how it ensures that its inventions get channeled, distributed, and accepted in all corners of the world. The system through which disinformation spreads, is incredibly complex. Servile local media and academia on all continents work hard to guarantee that only one narrative is allowed to penetrate the brains of billions.
The results are: intellectual cowardice and ignorance, all over the world, but especially in the West and in its client states."
As Americans, we should be the truth tellers to the world. Instead, the above was written in Russia. Why should it be mostly correct and most of what western mainstream media say be a lie?

Syria's fatal mistake was being in the way of the creation of the zio-crazy greater israel farce.
indeed.
there are some who automatically defend israel, and transnational zion.
but *some* of them, being at heart decent humans, if they would spent just a little time honestly reviewing the evidence, they will see that Zionism is Nazism. That is, Jewish Transnational Ultra-Nationalism... not dudes who go to temple when Buba is in town.
Doubt me - dare to read the 3 links above. they are specially chosen to tell the story.
You realise they're turning Israel into a patsy and the real Zionists are elsewhere?
The official US accounts are BOLLOCKS of course, but thanks to ZH for bringing this to our attention.
Looking at similar BOLLOCKS from the Middle Eastern news sources, the oil assets seem to be stabalising, but who cares by whom!
We await the Yemen fallout.

Shale production is not economic outside of the tiny core areas in the better formations. It never made much sense other than a Ponzi scheme that was enabled by Fed liquidity and made a few people in the sector and the Wall Street shills rich. The problem is that shale was used as one of the legs under the table that supported the USD. What happens when that leg is gone, the dreams of the US becoming an exporter go away, and the rest of the world figures out that all of that 'great news' from the BLS was just a lot of BS to prop up the current economic and political regime. Forget shale. Go for silver and gold instead.
