Assad Goes On Offense, Bombs ISIS "Capital", Deploys New Russian Weapons

Tyler Durden's picture




 

Now that Moscow has officially confirmed that Russian boots are on the ground at Latakia and that the Kremlin is actively ramping up its technical and logistical support for the Assad regime, one point we've been keen to drive home is that rebels, "freedom fighters", and marauding, black flag-waving jihadists alike will now have a much tougher time routing government forces and taking control of the country.

After all, battling Assad's depleted army (which is effectively fighting a three-front war with limited resources) is one thing, but fighting Russian special forces is entirely another, which is of course why the US is so "concerned" about the Russian presence in Syria. Put simply: if the Kremlin doesn't want Assad to fall, then Assad will probably not fall if the only challenge comes from various ragtag militias and Islamic militant groups. That calculus obviously changes if the challenge suddenly comes from a US-backed coalition consisting of Turkey, Saudi Arabia, France, Britain, Jordan, and Qatar.

It's with that in mind that we go to Reuters, who reports that the Russians may have breathed new life into Assad's forces which have reportedly begun using new weaponry and launching offensive strikes on Raqqa (the de facto ISIS capital). Here's the story:

The Syrian military has recently started using new types of air and ground weapons supplied by Russia, a Syrian military source told Reuters on Thursday, underlining growing Russian support to Damascus that is alarming the United States.

 

"The weapons are highly effective and very accurate, and hit targets precisely," the source said in response to a question about Russian support. "We can say they are all types of weapons, be it air or ground."

 


 

The source said the army had been trained in the use of the weapons in recent months and was now deploying them, declining to give further details other than saying they were "new types".

 

Syria's Foreign Minister Walid al-Moualem said on Thursday Russia has provided new weapons and trained Syrian troops how to use them, without saying when or naming any specific systems.

 

He told state television the government would be prepared to go further and ask Russian forces to fight alongside its troops if needed - though he said there were no such soldiers there now.

 

Activists said Syrian government war planes had mounted at least 12 air strikes in Raqqa, often described as Islamic State's de facto capital. The raids started at around 11:30 a.m. and came in three separate waves that hit eight targets.

 

The strikes hit close to at least four Islamic State offices, including one used by its self-appointed religious police force, said an activist in Raqqa who was contacted via the internet and declined to be named for security reasons.

 

Islamic State imposed a curfew in two parts of the city.

What this seems to indicate is that regime forces are now set to take the fight to ISIS, which could mean that an already fluid situation is about to become even more indeterminate, so we thought this an opprtune time to remind readers that if you're having a difficult time keeping track of who's fighting who and why, you're not alone.

Take it from us, the haphazard collection of foreign forces, jihadists, rebels, mercenaries, and militants is hard enough to keep track of on its own, and the situation is further complicated by ever shifting alliances, divergent objectives, and external meddling.

Throw in the fact that the US has, at various times, trained and inserted a variety of makeshift contingents, all of which (well, with the exception of “four or five”) have been either killed or captured, or have otherwise disappeared into the desert and you have, to quote an unnamed Pentagon official who spoke to CBS last month, “a friggin’ mess.” 

Complicating things further is the fact that the Russians are on the ground and building forward operating bases near Latakia and Turkish troops, if they ever get tired of chasing Kurds in the mountains of Northern Iraq, will probably find themselves operating somewhere between Kobani and Aleppo. As for US SpecOps (which the Pentagon swears are not engaged in combat despite what Gen. Lloyd Austin seemed to suggest when speaking to the Senate Armed Services Committee on Wednesday), there’s no telling where and with whom they’re fighting.

So, as the confusion and violence intensifies we present the following map from Reuters, which will hopefully be useful in helping to explain who controls what and where.

If Assad went on the airwaves and said he was going to defend the lives of Christians from IS in Syria, and had video of his military actually doing it, I suppose there would be a tidal wave of support for him and for the Russians coming from the U.S... and perhaps a few of the European countries too... Then what would the anti-Assad coalition do?... Torpedo a U.S. military vessal flying a Russian or Syrian flag?... Betcha!

Lets hope the Russians can pull it off things are dire in Sweden here is a yahoo comment...

Dude you may recall last year..The situation in the gang-controlled no-go zones of Sweden is deteriorating rapidly. Following the police report conceding the areas to the primarily Muslim immigrant gangs, the Swedish ambulance union is now demanding military grade protection gear to enter the no-go zones.

There have been a number of violent incidents lately, where thugs attack ambulances responding to calls in the zones. Thugs have slashed the tires of the ambulances, smashed their windshields and hurled large rocks from overpasses, while the paramedics themselves are subjected to both armed and unarmed physical violence on a regular basis. The situation has become so dire that the ambulance union now demands dramatically improved protection for its members.

“We need the paramedics to be prepared when entering these hot zones,” said union leader Henrik Johansson in an interview with Dagens Medicin magazine on Tuesday. “They need riot helmets, bulletproof vests, shin guards and holsterpacks. That’s the equipment needed to work in this environment. Of course, they also [need to be] equipped with gas masks.”

Firefighters face a similar situation. The gangs amuse themselves by setting fire to something — a container, a car or a school — and ambush the firefighters responding to the call

Emergency personnel now routinely request police escort before entering the no-go zones. Unfortunately, police are stretched thin and often lack the manpower to meet every request. Cars are torched practically every day in the ghettos, and Sweden holds the unflattering world record for the highest number of school fires.

Despite being a small country of less than 10 million citizens, a 2012 study showed an average of one school being burned per day in Sweden, costing tax payers upwards of half a billion SEK annually. By comparison, Greece has 11 million citizens and averages only five school fires per year.

Not even the police are safe from attacks. In May 2014, two police officers were cornered by 50 thugs in the no-go zone of Landskrona. They pulled their weapons to hold off the attackers and called for backup, but the police commander refused to send in backup, fearing escalation. One of the officers knew a few locals who intervened and convinced the gang to let the officers escape.

While such brazen aggression is rare, patrol cars are frequently pelted with rocks, and the drivers are targeted with green lasers. Blinding drivers with the powerful, hand-held lasers is a growing “sport,” where the goal is to make the driver crash. Buses, taxis, delivery companies and mailmen are also popular targets.

Even the suspicion of being part of law enforcement is grounds for beatings, as an elderly man waiting for the subway in Tensta discovered on Oct. 17. Gang members passing by misidentified his hearing aid as a police earphone and started punching and kicking him.

Ethnic Swedes are also being attacked. Local celebrity Linda Edenström’s 12-year old son was savagely beaten. In October, he took the subway after school to give a birthday present to a girl in his class. He was unaware she lived in a no-go zone, and when he exited the station he was promptly stopped by seven grown immigrants. They declared that no whites were allowed and proceeded to attack him while hurling anti-white slurs.

Swedish law states that the incident is not a hate crime. The law does not apply to an immigrant targeting a native Swede, even if an immigrant does so while explicitly stating they are doing it for racial reasons. However, the reverse situation with a native Swede saying a slur that could be perceived as racist has severe civil and criminal charges.

Why do civilized people cave to terrorists? and yes these gangs are terrorists

  1. The popularity of the term “cuckservative.”

For those of you unfamiliar with “cuckservative,” it is an increasingly popular insult among American conservatives defined as a Republican and/or conservative who is too cowardly to do anything about his country being taken away from him, akin to a man being cuckolded by his wife.

Conservatives in 2016: Yeah you elected us all in 2014, but we couldn't do anything conservative because that would cause us to lose election in 2016.

These shit heads don't deserve to hold a microphone let alone elected office.

I really had to listen to Graham literally moan and roll his eyes on stage about how if conservatives don't pander to latinos then they won't win elections. How stupid do they think latinos are? The airwaves are full of bull shit about how Repubs have to suck hispanic dick or lose. No hispanic ever thinks "Hmmm, maybe they only pretend to care about me to get me to vote, but when they get in office they'll just abandon all their promises to me like they did to everyone else"?

Sorry hispanics! We want to follow through with our promises, really we do, but if we did then we just wouldn't win the next election! We have to chase after the next swing vote and their demands conflict with your demands. There's like a billion transexuals now, and if we don't secure their vote then we'll never win the election!

IMHO we won't have to wait long at all for the 'assimilation' thingie to ramp up. Joel Richardson in his classic and prophetic book 'The Islamic AntiChrist' predicted back before 2006 the creation and rise of ISIS AKA Caliphate. He maintains that conversion to Islam will become a hot 'thing' to do amongst the media driven Western populations with huge mass conversions...

So preppers can prepare to fight their next-door-neighbors, cousins, sons in laws, buds from high school...

or be assimilated.

"Have you TRY to live in a MAJORITY muslim nation? Or you just fantasizing??"

I presume you live in Indonesia.   Up till recent times, Indonesia was the most tolerant Muslim country.   An Indonesian Muslim could change his/her Muslim faith to another without consequences.

It is no longer true with the emergence of Intolerant Islam.

And why do you NEED guards outside your Church ?

Was it because of the rising frequency of bombings and arson ?   20 years ago, it was unheard of, in Indonesia, even under the dictatorship of President Suharto.

In the event, you know better.............................

Perhaps you would be kind enough to share your experience should you engage in a debate about religious values with one of the Intolerants.

"At this rate they say by 2030 Sweden will be 40% muslim."

Being a small minority, they have already been able to establish NO GO Zones.  With 10% following this religious faith, Sweden is a lost cause. 

Those who fear them will be the first to submit then they in turn will become just as fervent and intolerant of those who have not submitted.

And the same applies to every Western nation that continually punishes its indigenous population for "perceived" racism etc etc

Note that the only Swedish party that is against unlimited immigration from anywhere has doubled its support during the last 11 months (from 13 to 25 % of the opinion). It is still pursued by the government, that invents various methods intended to stop the party. It is called fascist, racist, et c, as part of a campaign against it.

I'm not sure you guys recognize what just happened here. They didn't risk aircraft to blow up a random few ISIS lairs.

The fake ISIS central bank (ZATO al Raqqah branch) and everything in it just got smoked.

The al Raqqah satcom links have been destroyed - that's how fake ISIS/CIA/ZATO SF guys get their marching orders and avoid being blown up by fellow ZATOers.

There will be no more U.S. resupply of cash, equipment or oil to al Raqqah, and the ammo/replacement headchopper pipeline is in peril.

Fake al Nusra still has their U.S. command bunker and logistics hub in Aleppo, but fake ISIS just lost the ability to pay their mercenaries or exchange any money, fake ISIS can no longer communicate with their ZATO masters via scrambled satlinks to Jordan and Turkey for instructions. Blind and broke, and Assad already took out their oil supply last week.

After he turns the water off (the Tabqua dam) upstream of al Raqqah, fake ISIS and the U.S. will go ballistic. A humanitarian crisis tit-for-tat. Fake ISIS in al Raqqah were the ones using mustard gas mortar shells a couple of months ago. They have a stash somewhere (that probably says 'Made in the USA'). I wouldn't put it past them to blow the dam before the Syrian Army can take it.

This forces Obama to act, and he has no idea what to do. His chickenhawk Israeli-firster generals want WAR, but Obama will never agree to that. If Obama wants to pull out, the DoD (and their Xe/Academi for-profit arm) will refuse.

Things just got to a very dangerous tipping point. Putin has missile cruisers and a Typhoon-class nuke sub off the coast of Syria, and 100,000 Russian soldiers on the southern border participating in Center-2015. I doubt Putin will ever do anything, but this further limits the clownfuckery the Pentagram can get away with.

Whenever the Pentagram has their backs to the wall, bad, bad things happen. They will go full retard barring some miracle - or the obliteration of earth on the 24th - whichever comes first.

Accusing Obama of having pro-Israeli generals doesn't even pass the sniff test. This begs the question what else in his post is just hyperbolic opinon or supposition...

+1 for you, Hugh. You outed me. 

For anyone with a functional f'king brain cell, you should atuomatically assume everything I say is hyperbolic opinion or supposition. My anonymous opinions should carry all the credibility of an angst-ridden, 13-year-old girl banging out comments on her mom's computer between tweets to her other junior high school friends. 

"...Accusing Obama of having pro-Israeli generals doesn't even pass the sniff test..."

Why? Didn't CNN do a report on it yet? All the pentagram's recently-purged generals were either not neo-con enough or not butt-kissing Israeli-firsters. That leaves the Pentagon Senior staff composed of a wholly-unrepresentative, lop-sided mix of fundamentalist Christians and their Israeli-firster chicken-hawk cronies, and it was already lopsided before the purge.

I particularly avoid the label 'Jew' because some of the generals are those self-hating liberal Jews that have the audacity to place the U.S. constiution above the interests of Israel AND the MIC. My observation: you'll find much more troubling constitution-busters in the conservative Christian chikenhawks roosting there. I'm not 'against' any religion or country in that opinion - the command staff was hired to defend and protect the constitution. If they exhibit behavior or opinions otherwise, then I will make the appropriate conclusions on their loyalty. DHS is a different matter and an entirely criminal money-funneling scheme. That might as well be an arm of the IDF or a front for the Israeli mafia.

Keep watching CNN, Hugh. They'll think for you so your thoughts will always pass the sniff test. Anderson Cooper is bound to do an expose on this scandal real soon with colorful graphics. You'll see!

Perhaps the most brilliant assessment I have read yet. This is not willy nilly bombing to get attention. This is a clearly defined plan and the Russians Syrians and Iranians are going for the Jugular taking out the command and control centers, and the oil greasing the Is machine. Europe will owe a debt of thanx to Asaad and the Russians as those now unwelcome Syrian immigrants swarming in through sheer desparation  may be able to return home, an impossible prospct if Is had won.

Too bad the Swedes are not like the Kurds they are getting invaded by ISIS

Another good comment forewarning civil war

As a once-proud-swede I can today say that my former home is going to be a shadow of its former self within 3-5 years. Unless the borders are closed, a civil war is not a bad guess within 10 years. It's out of control and the PC media and ruling government should be tried for crimes against sweden's native population. To disregard the schools, healthcare system, pensioners, the justice system and everything else in favor of mass immigration by hoards of fortune seekers, many of whom not fleeing for their lives, is what will bring this country to its knees.

another one..

Sweden now has the highest per capita crime rate of any developed country in the world. I know it sounds unbelievable but, it's tru..

I married a Swede. The first time I went there in 1989 I was shocked to find there were no slums, ghettos, filth, beggars, gypsies, poverty, major crime,bad housing or hungry people. It seemed like utopia only cold.
I have been back 20 times and can honestly say it is now just like any other place with filth, poverty, slums, ghettos, crime, poverty, gypsies begging and stealing, parks littered with garbage from immigrants and bad housing.
I still cannot figure why they do this to themselves...My in laws say it is to help others, but they have ruined their nation and peace of life.

Still living in Sweden, I can just confirm that BigP is correct. I even agree with his estimate of how many years there is to some kind of severe internal disturbances.

Note that the only Swedish party that is against unlimited immigration from anywhere has doubled its support during the last 11 months (from 13 to 25 % of the opinion). It is still pursued by the government, that invents various methods intended to stop the party. It is called fascist, racist, et c, as part of a campaign against it.

Can you believe that the Swedish Official TV (govenment owned, living from tax money!) refuses to show RESULTS from opinion polls from certain sources, reasoning that certain polls are not "scientifically correct", probably because exactly these polls show slightly greater support for the "fascist" party. Other polls, showing less support for the same party, will however be published!

I know that to some of you this seems untrue. OK, come over and see for yourselves.

sweden is going to be darwined out. the tippoing point is past .roughly half of swedes are vote liberal with the social democrats leading the way. the migrants will 100% vote for them . all but guaranteeing the power remains in the hands of the social democrats at the expense of their own country..

Dameon, Sweden as a country will exist but the egalitarian society they have built will simply be taught in history books written by the Islamic victors.

I can say that taking in these people may sound noble, but sadly what I have found is go back and look at them just ten years later all you see is resentment against the countries they fled to, the demand that their culture bends to their demands and with the Muslim community they will never stop until all convert to Islam either by guile or by force, it really makes no difference to them.
One day we are going to have to accept that there is simply no t enough wealth or room to take all these people coming in, and by accepting in hoards you see a sudden demographic switch in your country, the fact we see today with parts of Europe that are no longer accessible, the rabid anti-Semitism that is comes with the Muslims, and the outright refusal to adapt and become part of the community they are coming to.
If we wish to help them then help them where they live, not where we do..

"roughly half of swedes are vote liberal with the social democrats leading the way. the migrants will 100% vote for them"

 

Another BS. Both of the major mainstream political blocks in Sweden (Social-Democratic coalition and the right-centre Moderate Alliance) are liberal populists. Both have the same USSA master (surprise!!!) and are only doing as they're being told. The Swedish Democrats will never conquer the political throne, not because they're anti-immigration, but because of their anti-ZATO and pro-neutrality political stances.

 

"Sweden as a country will exist but the egalitarian society they have built will simply be taught in history books written by the Islamic victors."

 

Garbage in - garbage out. The main reason for Sweden's fall as a society is the neoliberalism that's been the prevailing state doctrine for the past 2 decades. Once upon a time there used to be an egalitarian society here, but it turned to dust since the privatisation wave started rolling in the mid-90s (right after the previous RE crash and bank crisis).

Here's a link describing Swedes' will to help refugees and another one showing the inhumane conditions inside the privately owned refugee camps.

USA, Turkey and Israel Act As Air Force for ISIS


NATO member Turkey was busted buying huge quantities of oil from ISIS (its main source of funding), and bombing ISIS’ main on-the-ground enemy – Kurdish soldiers – using its air force. Many also say that Turkey has long been directly supporting ISIS.

The Israeli air force has bombed near the Syrian capital of Damascus, and attacked agricultural facilities and warehouses (the Syrian government is the other main opponent of ISIS in Syria besides the Kurds). The Israeli military recently admitted supporting Syrian jihadis.

Russia is making short work of Isis , Americans should thank Putin for cleaning up the mess that Obama created.

Russia is making America a safer place, while Obama is putting us all in danger/creating enemies (because we dont have enough already).

This should be making relations between USA and RUSSIA better, but because of Obama it will probably endup doing the opposite.

 

Lets all be honest here, the Obama administration pretty much contrived the Isis group to destabilize middle eastern govts (fight a proxy war) while using the MSMedia to gain plausible deniability of the Obama administrations involvement and support with/of terrorist groups in the region, thats whats going on, thats whats always been going on, its not a political statement or opinion , its just pretty much a fact.

Trump is popular because

1) Hes American

2) Hes not a terrorist

3) He has money so people cant bribe him

4) Americans are tired of pussies as president and having the world laugh at us

5) Americans like their manufacturing jobs, not everyone wants to be a useless eater sitting in a cubicle pushing pointless paper that no one reads back and forth.

6) Manufacturing jobs ARE GOOD JOBS, contrary to popular belief real men like building real stuff, it gives men a sense of purpose and fulfillment, we have had too many decades of our men and boys sitting around doing nothing, people WANT TO WORK and THEY WANT TO BUILD THINGS the pay is almost irrelevant, if the pay is shit real men will JUST WORK MORE HOURS, as long as the job is a "real job" men dont really care, but no one wants to sit in a fucking cubicle for 9 hours a day looking at boring spread sheets, and no one wants to sit infront of a grill flipping burgers for 8$ an hour.

Given the choice of sitting on an assembly line putting together engines for a Camaro or sitting in a cubicle contemplating suicide and how useless to society I am, I would pick the Camaro even if it payed half.

 

America simply wants its Testosterone and Spine back, and TRUMP IS SELLING TESTOSTERONE AND SPINES.

Thats what "Making America Great Again" Means.

Because you can't have "greatness" without "Spines and Balls"

 

Thats why I think Trump is going to win.

It won't work out as good as he sells it. He's a TV personality and is great for talking it up in front of an audience, but how would he react if we asked him (or anyone running for that matter) how he is going to deal with our astronomical debt and liabilities?

I've been in position to ask federal candidates this question, and at first they will talk a lot about how we need to cut back excessive spending (and cite some asinine NSF research project), but if I ask them what they are going to cut if they had to balance the budget right now, aka 40% of the federal budget, they get quiet or change the subject. I have no reason to believe that Trump has enough real steel under his bluster to actually make those kinds of cuts, and deal with the military/retirees/FSA/bankers that will put a target on his back should he stop their checks.

Aside from that, at least he knows how to negotiate bankruptcies. That will certainly be a useful skill for the next President.

Oh I understand double speak, please allow me to translate.

CIA/Mossad's prox army, ISIS, is getting it's ass whooped and the "Greater Israel Project" is in jeopardy so it's time for another 911 style false flag to promote more American and coalition forces dying for Israel's interests.

I find it very ironic that we have very detailed pics of Russian equipment/bases and yet we cannot find where ISIS is with 3 mile long convoys of Toyota pickup trucks, Humvees and black clad soldiers and flags..  Orange jumpsuits is a dead giveway of nearby ISIS forces.  Most comical.

Spot on! The West has no idea how impotent this makes them look... MIC indeed... when it suits them they have pics from space where you can count the hairs on Putin's head ( if he has any)... but when it comes MH17 & 370, etc, they got bupkis.... pathetic... that alone tells you all you need to know

Kurds told the world exactly what was happening at the Turkish border.

All you need to do is take a 1 second glance at the map to identify where their supply line is - the middle of the southern border of NATO member Turkey, as has been well documented. A few well placed bombing runs and a very small aerial patrol force covering a few square miles would be more than enough to cut off the main IS supply corridor.

That this was not done within weeks of IS's appearance was the most obvious red flag imaginable that the goal was never to destroy IS. It is still a mystery why the Syrian military did not focus all of its efforts on this region ages ago and expose Turkey as a rogue nation aiding and abetting terrorists.

Well, if ISIS had been eliminated early on with the now deployed state-of-the-art Russian weaponry, then we wouldn't have been treated to the current farce and humiliation of the hitherto impotent Washington-led "anti-ISIS" coalition.

Russia will stabilize the country. ISIS is in a world of hurt. But why didnt 4 million refugees fight back against 35,000 ISIS to begin with?

because they had no weapons compared to the well supplied terrorists

I am not so sure Russia would be so quick to heal the refuge crisis

You know, Europe hasn't been very nice to them.

No weapons and no training. How many people here are members of any sort of emergency management club/organization, or a militia? If you heard that there were 35,000 terrorists in your state that are heading your way, who will you call and what will you do? That's why 1% can control 99%, the 99% are not organized.

In the blue hives I would predict mass surrender.  I think there's more testosterone in my county than there is in the entirety of Boston or NYC.

Out here in flyover country, we'd muster and kill the fuck out of them == just like our great grandfathers did to the uppity negros and the Amerinds. Or die trying. There will be no submission in this house.

Fuck them and fuck you for saying that we would surrender.

Lift, eat right, learn to shoot. Decide what really matters to you and act.

And stop being such a goddamned pussified milquetoast.

All men die.

It is what we choose to die for that defines us.

I will die for liberty and never submit to medieval primitives and their insane religion -- and that goes for the would-be Baptist theocrats in my AO as well.

Well, if the current shitstorm ends up in enough civil unrest to cover gun confiscation with a plausable cloak of reasonable necessity, whom do you think will be rearmed from abroad?

During WWII us citizens donated 1000's of weapons (only recently confiscated by Her Majesty's government) to the British citizens in anticipation of an invasion, now who do you think will send you a weapon?

Don't think 35,000 jihadies could control 4,000,000 American land whales?

You go ahead and turn in your guns.

 

Since I don't have any scuba gear handy I won't be able to turn in the guns I used to have, now rusting at lake bottom.

I retired to a more defensible AO quite a while back. And I didn't mean to suggest that lots of folks won't go down fighting, don't be offended personally. But I think it'll be a hell of a shit show.

I hope they jam every signal and leave ISIS in a pile of smoldering grad rubble. and iskander AL -Nursery back to their 20 Virgins. And if a rocket gets mixed up and lands in Tel Aviv oh well shit happens, just like at weddings, collateral damage.

Perhaps several US special forces will be amonst the rubble, that would look good for US international relations.

Then they get exactly what they deserve for fighting with scumbags. and refusing to keep communications open with the Russians- "Be our guest" Lavrov

And as for International relations, I cannot remember a time when they were this low anyway, since the 60s at least. So whats to worry about saving, blabbering with a horseface who does not want to hear.

Looks to me like its time to put your pieces on the board or STFU

Re. dead special forces. You will never hear about it. Later they will say so-and-so, unfortunately died in a car crash on the Autobahn.

Hope Vladimir shows the Kurds some love and arms them up to thump the Turks a bit.
And what's to stop Hezbollah from trick or treating as ISIS and heading over to the Kingdom to break some shit?

probably because they are planning to hang out in Lebanon and the Golan Heights.

You know their chant, "Death to Israel, Death to the US!"

Russia backing them up maybe

Um, they are.  They are the only forces (or were until the Russians showed up) actually fighting ISIS on the ground.  Keep up, OK?  Although, in fairness to you, it's pretty hard to keep up with this hot mess.
