In Major Humiliation For Obama, Iran Sends Soldiers To Support Russian Troops In Syria

Tyler Durden's picture




 

When Zero Hedge first reported ten days ago that Russian troops, in their bid to support the Assad regime in its ongoing confrontation with various ISIS, Al Nusra, and other US-supported groups in what has become the proxy war of 2015 (one which even comes with thousands of refugees for dramatic media impact) had been quietly massing in Syria and have set up a forward operating base near Damascus, there were those who were openly skeptical.

Then, just a few hours ago, Bloomberg finally confirmed that "top officials were scheduled to meet at the National Security Council Deputies Committee level to discuss how to respond to the growing buildup of Russian military equipment and personnel in Latakia" and that Russia is "set to start flying combat missions from a new air base inside Syria."

So yes, for whatever reason (and the reason as we explained is clear: natural gas pipelines) Russia is making not only its increasing support for Assad known, but also that it is in Syria and that any further US-funded and supported incursions by ISIS or whatever is the media scapegoat terrorist organization du jour, will not be tolerated.

To be sure, none of this is in any way a surprise to the US - just as the US is using ISIS as a pretext to invade or pressure any mid-east nation it desires "in order to hold the jihadist terrorist scourge", so Russia is now using ISIS as a comparable excuse to intervene. After all, if ISIS is the friend of humanity, then surely Russian aid will be welcome. That it is not, had made it abundantly clear that not only is ISIS just a convenient diversion, but the reasons for a Syrian invasion and deposition of Assad, are purely political and entirely in the realm of real-politik. Also, Russia's return to Syria in greater numbers is no surprise to anyone in the Pentagon - this was merely the long-awaited escalation of the foreplay that started when ISIS mysteriously emerged on the scene just over a year ago.

But in the latest twist in what we have been warning for months has the makings of the biggest proxy shooting war in years, one that will come as a major humiliation to the Obama administration, today we find out that none other than America's most recent diplomatic sweetheart in the Gulf region, Iran, has deployed ground soldiers into Syria in the past few days in cooperation with Russia's President Vladimir Putin.

This answers our question from earlier this week:

So as the coalition drives towards Sana'a - which the Saudi-owned al-Hayat newspaper says will be "liberated" after a "decisive battle" in Marib - and as Turkey, the US, Saudi Arabia, Jordan, and Qatar mull options for the final push to oust Assad in Syria, the only remaining question is whether Iran will remain on the sidelines and allow the Houthis to be routed and Assad deposed, or whether, like Moscow, Tehran finally decides that the time for rheotric has come to an end.

 

And on that note, we'll close with the following from AP: "Iran's foreign minister on Monday criticized demands for the resignation of Syrian President Bashar Assad, saying such calls have prolonged the Arab country's civil war. Mohammad Javad Zarif went so far as to say that those who have in the past years demanded Assad's ouster "are responsible for the bloodshed in Syria."

And so, Iran appears to have picked its side, and knowing that it has Obama wrapped around its finger as part of Obama's huge "diplomatic coup" of restoring relations with Iran as part of the Nuclear Deal (since any backtracking would further embarrass the US president) and can pivot in any direction in the Syrian conflict, it has decided to side with Russia and Syria.

According to Ynet, a further said that the increased military involvement in Syria was "due to Assad's crisis and under Russian-Iranian cooperation as a result of a meeting between Soleimani with Russian President Vladimir Putin."

Where things get even more complicated, is that while Israel would do everything it can to turn public opinion against Iran, especially if it is now involved in the Syrian debacle, Israel still has cordial relations with Russia: "We have dialogue with Russia and we aren't in the  middle of the Cold War," said the source. "We have open channels with the Russians."

So what does Iran joining the conflict really mean?  "It's hard to forecast whether Russia's presence will decide the fate of Syria, but it will lengthen the fighting and bloodletting for at least another year because ISIS won't give up," said the source.

In other words, unless even more foreign powers intervene, you know "to stop ISIS" by focusing all their firepower on attacking or defending Assad, the Syria conflict will drag on indefinitely with an unknown outcome. Which in turn begs the question: how long will Israel keep out of the war, and if it decides to join whether it be using one of the more traditional, false flag methods to enflame public opinion against Iran. Who will be collateral damage then.

One thing is certain: with the GOP unable to block the Iran nuclear deal in the Senate, should it emerge and be confirmed, that Iran is indeed present, then Obama will be faced with the biggest diplomatic headache in his administration's history, namely the explanation of why he is scrambling to restore diplomatic connections with a regime that couldn't even wait for the Iran deal to be formally passed before it turned its back on its newest "best friend" in the Oval Cabinet, and promptly side with the KGB agent who over the past two years has emerged as the biggest US enemy in three decades.

Furthermore, it also means that now Russia suddenly has the media leverage in its hands: a few "leaked" photos of Iran troops to the press and the phones in the US Department of State will explode.

But the most important news is that, as we warned previously, with every incremental party entering the Syria conflict, the probability of a non-violent outcome becomes increasingly negligible. And now that Iran is involved, it means that both Israel and Saudi Arabia will be dragged in, whether they like it or not.

Nations and Leaders united against the CABAL... try to differentiate between the people who are trying to fend off the cabal threats, and those who work directly for the cabal. Not every leader is a cabal puppet, even though most are, and not everyone that appears to be is cooperating, they may be acting secretly to disempower the cabal. Which is actually what's happening.

As with most things having to do with politics today, most situations can only be untangled as to what's really going on by imagining maximum possible corruption.

Where's the unfrozen Iranian money going? I would be surprised if the whole point of this was anything but little Obozo's handlers telling their little puppet to negotiate anything he wanted so long as he did what he was told and made sure that the unfrozen Iranian assets went to the usual too big to jail and bribe dispensing institutions?

Good little Obozo. That's right. You're a statesman. Yes you are. Now put this language into the agreement or else.

Is it even possible that I'm the only one that sees how this can be turned into an all around win for everyone involved? Not just politically, diplomatically, energy and profitability but also power increases for everyone. And in addition it would be the only realistically possible way for those that want this area for the real reason they won't disclose to get access to it inside the time frame that they want it. At least not without doing something crazy stupid, dangerous and risky through massive escalation.

Then again I don't have any special interests or agendas driving my ability to see how to accomplish this. Ending the senseless death and destruction would be good enough to start for me. If nobody lets avarice or the real terrorists in their midst get in the way this would definitely be possible.

Don't get me started on senseless death and destruction just before September 11th. I'll save that for tomorrow.

Anybody who's been paying even casual attention to the Middle East should know that Russia and Iran have had good relations and have been working closely for years. With that being said, one could reasonably wonder what Obama's motivations were for ramming through his precious Iran deal. I believe he was in such a full court bum-rush to stick it to the Republicans that he completely ignored the larger geopolitical ramifications. It was a remarkably shortsighted and stupid thing to do, but that's just how he rolls.

And as I understand it, The Russian part of the "Friendship" pipeline is operated by the oil company Transneft through its subsidiary OAO MN Druzhba. and it is a substantial part of the worlds largest pipleine complex. The Middle East has a very high birth rate in case anyone was wondering why so many pipelines. These pipleines are of great interest to Iran and certainly to all of Europe and Eurasia. Russia has far more legitimate reason to be in Syria and the port city of Latakia than does the US. If you think Saudi Arabia has ever loved the US or the Brits, think again. President Obama only represents America as a person symbol, it's our greedy, bloodsucking, Treason ridden, do nothing, paid for by Citizens United CONGRESS who has allowed this country to fail, and fail it has. Now the US feels it needs to be front and center and is all about making money with killing via the enormous military industrial complex.

PS. In 2001 and right to the present day ordinary cell phones simply can't work on board an inflight aircraft, so much for long, heart wrenching conversations with loved ones on the ground. Also flight attendants since the days of detours to Cuba have used a code to tell the cockpit someone is trying to highjack the plane. Think about it.

RT suggested that there are no plans for Russian troops to enter to conflict zone. Yet ZeroHedge, along with the rest of the MSM, which it so readily lambasts, just steams ahead as if Russian military intervention is a done deal. Weird.

These things are only happening because of demand for oil and gas.

Its a humiliation but its Obama's way of saying Iran rising is MY WAY of saying the Bushist neo-con era and our commitment to unilaterally align to Saudi Wahhabist regime is OVER.

You can hear Karzai now rumbling and mumbling that Al Qaeda was an US invention, not an Afghan conspiracy of Talibans (more an imported Paki concoction) ! Some blowback to past hubris and Bushist Crusade's "raison d'etre" when you past CHOICE surrogate spits on your legacy to his country.

US diplomacy is NOW somewhere in an awesome HOT SPOT between the rock of not wanting to SEND ground troops to the CAULDRON and dark place of wanting others to clean out ISIS, under US drone/aerial guidance, with awesome refugee spill over that destabilises the Euro partner in US's world governance.

It won't work as the Gordian knot of MIC/OIL/Petrodollar is an ORGANIC construct since 1971.

You cannot untie the intermingled threads like a woman from threadneedle street with dainty fingers!

Its very difficult to CUT it without leaving a great boulevard for your strategic opponents to use (Russia/China/Iran) -- leading God knows where for US interests on a global scale--As these same people are nevertheless pardners in global financialized and outsourced geopolitics around the oil/$ construct.

The bottom line of this AGE stays : We have to avoid the MAD-Armageddon.

Can't have your cake and eat it Mr Obama. If Pax Americana goes "reasonable" then Saud goes moar "unreasonable" and desperate in Sunni-Shia confrontation as it is totally fundamentalist in terms of ideology. And that is a gamechanger which could bring down PETRODOLLAR.

The Holy grail of the petrodollar is the icing on the cake of the Reaganomics NWO age that followed on to Dear Henry's Petrodollar hegemony, and MIC and OIL plays are just ways of ensuring that hegemonial construct on which the Oligarchy's WS beanstalk --aka the WEALTH of the Uber WEST-- is built.

In the final analysis it all comes down to trying to save whatever is possible of the fast receding dream of : Our way of life is non-negotiable; now becoming the tell tale and impossible to achieve bottom line of  "You are with us or against us" neo-con mantra.

I don't think this administration is gonna solve that problem cleanly. Its gonna have to be a better of bad solutions, with awesome fallout.

Meanwhile the world is faced with other problems that go beyond this current dystopian standoff : Global warming and peak RM, where economic deflation is now looking like inevitable for planet earth.

Iran and Russia have been planning this invasion for years. A move on Syrian oil fields and a pipeline block for Russia, and Iran's move on a ME takeover; final goal being Egypt. No altruism here, only mafia-thuggery and land-grabbing. They waited for a weak U.S. President to make the move.

If Russia and allies do not fight "Just Us" and their minions there, they will have to fight them at home...

Major General Butler was right, his warnings unheeded.  

“War is just a racket. A racket is best described, I believe, as something that is not what it seems to the majority of people. Only a small inside group knows what it is about. It is conducted for the benefit of the very few at the expense of the masses.

I believe in adequate defense at the coastline and nothing else. If a nation comes over here to fight, then we'll fight. The trouble with America is that when the dollar only earns 6 percent over here, then it gets restless and goes overseas to get 100 percent. Then the flag follows the dollar and the soldiers follow the flag.

I wouldn't go to war again as I have done to protect some lousy investment of the bankers. There are only two things we should fight for. One is the defense of our homes and the other is the Bill of Rights. War for any other reason is simply a racket.

There isn't a trick in the racketeering bag that the military gang is blind to. It has its "finger men" to point out enemies, its "muscle men" to destroy enemies, its "brain men" to plan war preparations, and a "Big Boss" Super-Nationalistic-Capitalism.

It may seem odd for me, a military man to adopt such a comparison. Truthfulness compels me to. I spent thirty- three years and four months in active military service as a member of this country's most agile military force, the Marine Corps. I served in all commissioned ranks from Second Lieutenant to Major-General. And during that period, I spent most of my time being a high class muscle- man for Big Business, for Wall Street and for the Bankers. In short, I was a racketeer, a gangster for capitalism.

I suspected I was just part of a racket at the time. Now I am sure of it. Like all the members of the military profession, I never had a thought of my own until I left the service. My mental faculties remained in suspended animation while I obeyed the orders of higher-ups. This is typical with everyone in the military service.

I helped make Mexico, especially Tampico, safe for American oil interests in 1914. I helped make Haiti and Cuba a decent place for the National City Bank boys to collect revenues in. I helped in the raping of half a dozen Central American republics for the benefits of Wall Street. The record of racketeering is long. I helped purify Nicaragua for the international banking house of Brown Brothers in 1909-1912 (where have I heard that name before?). I brought light to the Dominican Republic for American sugar interests in 1916. In China I helped to see to it that Standard Oil went its way unmolested.

During those years, I had, as the boys in the back room would say, a swell racket. Looking back on it, I feel that I could have given Al Capone a few hints. The best he could do was to operate his racket in three districts. I operated on three continents.” - Major General Smedley Butler, USMC.
