Is Washington Actually Trying To Start World War III?
Submitted by Michael Snyder via The Economic Collapse blog,
Why has Barack Obama airdropped 50 tons of ammunition into areas that “moderate rebels” in Syria supposedly control? This is essentially the equivalent of poking the Russians directly in the eyes. Much of this ammunition will end up in the hands of those that the Russians are attempting to bomb into oblivion, and so to Russia it appears that we are attempting to make their job much harder. And of course the truth is that there aren’t really any “moderate rebels” in Syria at all. Nearly all of the groups that are fighting are made up primarily of radical jihadists and/or hired mercenaries.
Personally, I don’t see anyone over there that you could call “the good guys”. At the end of the day, the U.S. supports just about anyone that wants to get rid of the Assad regime, and the Russians are working very hard to keep Assad in power. Just like the civil war in Ukraine, the conflict in Syria is in great danger of being transformed into a proxy war between the United States and Russia, and many fear that these conflicts could eventually be setting the stage for World War III.
The ferocity of Russian airstrikes in Syria has surprised observers all over the planet, and over the past couple of days these airstrikes have been extended to include some new areas…
Russian Air Forces have extended the range of their airstrikes on Islamic State positions in Syria to four provinces, focusing primarily on demolishing fortified installations and eliminating supply bases and the terrorists’ infrastructure.
Over the last 24 hours Russian aircraft have attacked terrorist positions in the Hama, Idlib, Latakia and Raqqa provinces of Syria. In total, 64 sorties targeted 63 Islamic State installations, among them 53 fortified zones, 7 arms depots, 4 training camps and a command post.
When I read reports like this, I am deeply troubled. The Obama administration claims that it has been bombing ISIS positions in Syria for over a year. So why in the world do these targets still exist?
Was the U.S. military incapable of finding these installations?
That doesn’t seem likely.
So why weren’t they destroyed long ago?
Did the Obama administration not want them destroyed for some reason?
What seems abundantly clear is that the Russians are doing what the Obama administration was either unwilling or unable to do. There is now mass panic among ISIS fighters, and thousands of them are fleeing the country…
An estimated 3,000 Islamic State fighters as well as militants from other extremist groups have fled Syria for Jordan fearing a renewed offensive by the Syrian army in addition to Russian airstrikes, a military official has told RIA news agency.
“At least 3,000 militants from Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL), al-Nusra and Jaish al-Yarmouk have fled to Jordan. They are afraid of the Syrian army having stepped up activities on all fronts and of Russian airstrikes,” the RIA source said.
The mainstream media in the United States is not talking much about this, are they?
But the U.S. media is reporting on this latest airdrop of ammunition to rebel groups in Syria. For example, the following comes from CNN…
U.S. military cargo planes gave 50 tons of ammunition to rebel groups overnight in northern Syria, using an air drop of 112 pallets as the first step in the Obama Administration’s urgent effort to find new ways to support those groups.
Details of the air mission over Syria were confirmed by a U.S. official not authorized to speak publicly because the details have not yet been formally announced.
C-17s, accompanied by fighter escort aircraft, dropped small arms ammunition and other items like hand grenades in Hasakah province in northern Syria to a coalition of rebels groups vetted by the US, known as the Syrian Arab Coalition.
If you were the Russians, how would you feel about this?
I know how I would feel.
And just as Joe Biden has previously admitted, the “moderate middle” in Syria simply does not exist. The following is an extended excerpt from a piece that was originally written by investigative journalist Nafeez Ahmed…
The first Russian airstrikes hit the rebel-held town of Talbisah north of Homs City, home to al-Qaeda’s official Syrian arm, Jabhat al-Nusra, and the pro-al-Qaeda Ahrar al-Sham, among other local rebel groups. Both al-Nusra and the Islamic State have claimed responsibility for vehicle-borne IEDs (VBIEDs) in Homs City, which is 12 kilometers south of Talbisah.
The Institute for the Study of War (ISW) reports that as part of “US and Turkish efforts to establish an ISIS ‘free zone’ in the northern Aleppo countryside,” al-Nusra “withdrew from the border and reportedly reinforced positions in this rebel-held pocket north of Homs city”.
In other words, the US and Turkey are actively sponsoring “moderate” Syrian rebels in the form of al-Qaeda, which Washington DC-based risk analysis firm Valen Globals forecasts will be “a bigger threat to global security” than IS in coming years.
Last October, Vice President Joe Biden conceded that there is “no moderate middle” among the Syrian opposition. Turkey and the Gulf powers armed and funded “anyone who would fight against Assad,” including “al-Nusra,” “al-Qaeda in Iraq (AQI),” and the “extremist elements of jihadis who were coming from other parts of the world”.
In other words, the CIA-backed rebels targeted by Russia are not moderates. They represent the same melting pot of al-Qaeda affiliated networks that spawned the Islamic State in the first place.
It has been well documented that many of these so-called “moderate rebel groups” in Syria have fought alongside ISIS and have sold weapons to them. So this false dichotomy that Barack Obama keeps trying to sell us on is just a giant fraud. The following comes from a recent Infowars report…
In September, 2014 a commander with the FSA admitted cooperating with ISIS and the al-Nusra Front.
“We are collaborating with the Islamic State and the Nusra Front by attacking the Syrian Army’s gatherings in … Qalamoun,” Bassel Idriss said. “Let’s face it: The Nusra Front is the biggest power present right now in Qalamoun and we as FSA would collaborate on any mission they launch as long as it coincides with our values.”
In July of 2014 a report in Stars and Stripes documented how the 1,000 strong Dawud Brigade, which had previously fought alongside the FSA against al-Assad, had defected in its entirety to join ISIS.
The same month factions within the FSA — including Ahl Al Athar and Ibin al-Qa’im — pledged services to the Islamic State.
Members of the Islamic State claim to cooperate with the FSA and buy weapons provided by the U.S.
“We are buying weapons from the FSA. We bought 200 anti-aircraft missiles and Koncourse anti tank weapons,” ISIS member Abu Atheer told al-Jazeera. “We have good relations with our brothers in the FSA. For us, the infidels are those who cooperate with the West to fight Islam.”
U.S. anti-tank weapons are playing a critical role in the Syrian conflict. As reported by the Washington Post, U.S.-made anti-tank missiles are being used by the rebels to destroy lots of Russian-made tanks that are being used by the Syrian army…
So successful have they been in driving rebel gains in northwestern Syria that rebels call the missile the “Assad Tamer,” a play on the word Assad, which means lion. And in recent days they have been used with great success to slow the Russian-backed offensive aimed at recapturing ground from the rebels.
Since Wednesday, when Syrian troops launched their first offensive backed by the might of Russia’s military, dozens of videos have been posted on YouTube showing rebels firing the U.S.-made missiles at Russian-made tanks and armored vehicles belonging to the Syrian army. Appearing as twirling balls of light, they zigzag across the Syrian countryside until they find and blast their target in a ball of flame.
Like I said earlier, this is looking more and more like a proxy war between the United States and Russia.
Could that be what Obama actually wants?
* * *
Obama is poking China in the eyes lately too. CNN is reporting that U.S. warships may soon be sailing into territorial waters around the Spratly Islands. These are islands that the Chinese government claims ownership over, but the U.S. government disputes that claim, and Obama seems determined to flex his muscles in the area…
The United States (US) may soon deploy war ships near China’s artificial islands in the South China Sea.
It wants to send a message that it does not recognize China’s territorial claims over the area.
This is according to a Financial Times report quoting a senior U.S. official who said its ships will sail within 12-nautical-mile zones that China claims as its territory around the Spratly Islands within the next two weeks.
If Obama sends warships into that area, there is a very real chance that they could get shot at. According to Newsweek, the Chinese are saying that they will not permit U.S. ships to violate those territorial waters under any circumstances…
“We will never allow any country to violate China’s territorial waters and airspace in the Spratly Islands, in the name of protecting freedom of navigation and overflight,” Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying said in response to a question about possible U.S. patrols. “We urge the related parties not to take any provocative actions, and genuinely take a responsible stance on regional peace and stability.”
Such exchanges appear to be moving China and the U.S. toward a much feared, yet long expected, military confrontation. Just as unsettling, both sides seem confident they can prevail.
Over the past couple of years our relations with China have really gone downhill very rapidly, and if the trading relationship between the two largest economies on the planet breaks down, that would have massive implications for the entire global economy.
In addition to everything above, the civil war in Ukraine continues to rage on. The United States funded, equipped, trained and organized the forces that violently overthrew the democratically-elected government in Ukraine, and then once those thugs (which actually included some neo-Nazis) took power, the Obama administration immediately recognized them as the legitimate government of Ukraine.
The Russians were absolutely infuriated by this, and they have been providing soldiers, equipment and supplies to the rebel groups that are fighting back against this new government. Of course the Russians deny that they are doing this, but it is exceedingly obvious that they are.
The rebel groups that the Russians have been backing have been doing very well and have been steadily taking ground, and this is not how the power brokers in D.C. envisioned things playing out in Ukraine. So in a desperate attempt to shift the momentum of the conflict, a bill is going through Congress that would provide “lethal military aid” to the government in Kiev. Initially the bill would have provided 200 million dollars in lethal aid, but now it has been upped to 300 million dollars. There are some that believe that the final figure will be significantly higher.
Once this bill gets passed, it will be an extremely important event. For the Russians, it will mean crossing a red line that never should have been crossed. You see, the truth is that Ukraine is Russia’s most important neighbor. Just imagine how we would feel if the Russians helped overthrow Canada’s government and then start feeding weapons to the new pro-Russian government that they helped install. That is exactly how the Russians view our meddling in Ukraine.
Earlier this year, I wrote an article in which I discussed an opinion poll that showed that 81 percent of all Russians now view the United States negatively, and only 13 percent of Russians have a positive view of this nation. Not even during the height of the Cold War were the numbers that bad.
The stage is being set for World War III, but most Americans are completely and totally oblivious to all of this because they are so wrapped up in their own little worlds.
Most Americans still seem to assume that the Russians and the Chinese are our “friends” and that any type of conflict between major global powers is impossible.
Well, the truth is that conflict has already begun in Ukraine and Syria, and tensions are rising with each passing day.
It won’t happen next week or next month, but we are on the road to World War III.

Yes then Dear Leader turns over all the wealth of the U.S. and he finished his fathers dreams
Remember how people asked how the Germans of the 1930's could let Hitler rise to power? Here we go, right here, right now.
Yea... It'll be everyone against DC and the Military Industrial Complex.
"It won’t happen next week or next month, but we are on the road to World War III"
The road to WW III started on 9/11/2001, when we collectively as US citizens lost our minds and decided we were going to bomb or kill anyone around the world who disagreed with our policies. Osama Bin Laden got his wish. We won't be smart enough to pull our troops out and defend our country. We have 2 large oceans on both sides of our countries. The only way bad people get in, is because we let them in.
Bin Laden is long dead, and yet here we are, trying to nation build in Syria, for what, a gas pipeline. Do you honestly think the Russians were going to let a long time ally in Assad get thrown out? Hell no. Wake up people!!
You can try to wake them up but its like knocking on solid concrete
Pray to God that there won't be a war. I mean it - start saying Hail Marys.
World war would be like nothing we have experienced or witnessed in our (most) lifetimes. Not like current Syria or any ME adventure we have pursued. As soon as one side ran out of tactical cruise missiles and their aircraft became ineffective it would escalate to nuclear.
Inequality + Ignorance + Nationalism = Fascism
“The naive doesn’t see the danger until it is at his throat.” — Noam Chomsky
Diminishing returns thus causing lack of growth and jobs is the tinder.
Lacking enough oil, there’s your war.
>> Inequality + Ignorance + Nationalism = Fascism <<
Nonsense. 21st-c. liberal nonsense.
Agreed, and it's GAME OVER at that point.
The recent stories about the super rich building bomb shelters are amusing to me. The outside world will be uninhabitable long after they've lived out their lives in their luxurious, yet utterly miserable underground bunkers.
"We have 2 large oceans on both sides of our countries. The only way bad people get in, is because we let them in."
Not enough green Scotty, not enough green.. A police state implementation reason MUST be imported to the US and they are doing it and we are letting them...
Obama will not finish his second term! Current Events Linked to Ancient Biblical Prophecy!

Stop spamming that already, ffs
It's way too late for that. The leaders and TPTB of the west created a scenario a long time ago where the standard of living of westerners was inflated at the cost to the rest of the world. This was always unsustainable in the long run.
Westerners are going to want war when they lose that standard of living, as it will be portrayed to them as the fault of boogeymen in the non western world. There is no way it will not be portrayed as such, as it is a perfect excuse for the political class and also serves to alleviate the egos of the average western POS who for their entire life has fallen prey to a fantasy of exceptionalism and being a better person than 99% of the planet.
@Joe Trader
The recklessness with which the lap dog media are pushing this Russia and China are enemies stuff is astonishing. The world has gradations of virtue so the choice isn't between BFF or mortal enemy.
As Paul Craig Roberts put it yesterday, who would a thunk that the Russians have a foreign policy of their own. Owtte.
The rebirth of Stalinism idea would have a smidgin of credibility if our own policies and president weren't such a joke.
What makes Russians such horrid blokes is that they're sick and tired of our bullshit. The nerve!
We are the quintessential unguided missile.
Why pray to satan?
WW3 was inevitable the day sound money was left behind for faith based debt currency. That alone led to the abuse of reserve status and an inflated standard of living, stolen from the rest of the world if you will. Now the world is calling the west out and western leaders can choose either to admit western culture is built on bullshit and abuse, not exceptionalism, and have the rage of westerners fall on them...or they can tell westerners they are being attacked by the rest of the world and have the whole planet die with them. Either way the political class of the west is dead, they can either choose to die in such a way that saves the planet or not. They will likely choose the latter.
The purpose of the Rothschilds and their ilk gaining monopoly control of fiat money is two fold; first to gain control of a country and then second to direct the countries manpower and productive capacity for further gain, i.e., by engaging in war. On Dec 22, 1913, when opposition had left DC for the holidays, the Fed Reserve act was snuck through and signed by Wilson; at that time the Fed debt was 1 billion. Five years later, the debt had ballooned to 26 billion as the US citizens were charged for the majority costs of the war against Germany, a war engineered by London bankers. Inflation over the war years was something around 90% by 1918
"The road to WW III started on 9/11/2001, when we collectively as US citizens lost our minds "
wrong; US citizens are just dupes to be used and thrown away. Flush after the collapse of the USSR, Bush, then Clinton extended US ahd NATO right to Russia's border; the Pentagon planned 'full spectrum dominance' of all adversaries. The dual citizen neocons saw that US control of the world would allow Israel to control the ME, assuming the regional powers such as Iraq, Iran, Syria, and Libya could be broken up. 911 was the most evil false flag attack known to history; the deaths of 3K Americans, the phony Pentagon plane crash site (even children can see that there is no evidence of a commercial plane crash there), cell phone calls lasting 30 minutes on flight 11 at altttude from one flight attendant to her supervisor, the collapse of the towers into crater shaped rubble fields and not hill shaped, only explainable if explosive charges blew the buildings out from the core,...etc. The Chesed Golem incident in 2000 showed that the planning for 911 started years before by the neocons and Mossad
Gomel Chesed cemetary incident
Believe it or not, the slowly building World War 3 that leads to an attempt at a nuclear exchange next September is part of the Vatican's prophetic script. It's no accident that the Russians started bombing after the Pope came and spoke to the UN. Have a look at how they've been scripting this whole thing, and what their goals are - http://redefininggod.com/obama-and-the-2nd-coming/ http://redefininggod.com/2015/10/globalist-prophecy-watch-update-1-alex-...
Veriton - Its a binary system. The choices are limite. As a kid I visited the Museum of Science in Boston. I was fascinated with this display of randomness of ping pong balls dropping into these slots forming a predictable pattern. I have thought of this for a few decades now. The only escape is outside the box of this dimension and while very feasbile in theory and scant scientific prowess of some really neat tools we are just not there yet.
Also, not enough have maturity to understand juxtopositiln to understand how close we are and redirect major focus as global collaberation to some ends of evolution instead of competition.
Energy is still critical and competition is baked into our evolution so I dont want to act like if there is some magic wand. There isnt.
I only disagree with the author about how Americans feel about the Chinese and Russians. They are competitors and the American people have felt no different since well, since I have been born. While true, the reasons why at the end of the day are not understood.
The body polity sellling out is different from media. So far the game is going as planned for a few families in Europe.
The bigger game within a game is lost on them. Even made aware what has been unleashed to some it cannot be bottled back up. Some things in the model here in 3D are so close to 100% probabilty in this design may as well say the human race has no choice to evolve on a certain path.
Such is a script in an eternity of such. This conversation can go deep but let me just say I am a believer of Many Worlds theory. Hyposis beyond such starts to hurt my mind. For each big or small cycle in existence only so much understanding based on positioning based on relativity is possible.
As I dont drive this bus best to look after those I can and that is a small portion it is indeed. All I say is whoever wrote this Superman 3 script you suck. Postulating some concepts or logic may only mutliply loss right now. Let me the fuck out of here!!! But must take my little role in a big stage. Dont hate anybody any longer but must defend myself with no more tears as necessay.
Unfortunately their plans are so batshit crazy that you can't even begin talk to people about it.
At some point you would think that TPTB would just push the "easy button" and dispense with the ridiculous, complicated and completely non-essential OP End Times ShitShow.
What an intergalactic laughing stock earth is going to become throughout the entire cosmos a couple of millenia from now. Earth will be a very short footnote because should we ever encounter an alien civilization and they find out what we are about we will surely be exterminated immediately.
While I follow your blog religiously and often post links here to your articles, I am starting to think that the PTB are playing up the scenarios you propose 'just in case,' but aren't really looking to have to rely on them.
SOOOO many people are waking up lately that I think they'll use 'Option B,' which entails continuing to make the Obama administration look like utter incompetent fools intent on starting WWIII; Putin looking like an innocent peace-loving leader intent on world harmony; and leaders in this country crying for the MIC to step in and jail O-Boy and all his predecessors/followers under a declaration of martial law while rounding up the 'bad guys' before any buttons are actually pushed.
The globalists would still win under that scenario, especially if they installed someone like Ron Paul as president and switched to 'sound money principals'...which wouldn't mean shit after the FED is audited, revealing that all our gold belongs to the BRICS/globalists anyway. They'd still get what they wanted, without having to blow everything to kingdom-come OR pulling off that desperate, easily seen-through 'Project Blue Beam' bullshit. That seems like a more plausible scenario given what I see at this time, anyway.
Possibly so, but my job is to block the crazy sh*t. You'll thank me later.
i'll thank you now and say hello. i do have a fascinating monkey wrench to throw your way sometime. when i feel compelled i'll get in touch on your web site. keep it up... good on ya'!
Don't have time to get into this in detail, but IMO there is an important problem in all this thinking when it comes to the two highly discussed options about the nature of today's political reality: Option a) is west against Russia, while Option b) is that it is all one big happy party among all world elites and all moving along according to plan.
The problem with BOTH of these ideas is that they suffer from "monolithicity", that is, they assume this fantastic harmony working behind the scenes. Now from a game theory perspective, there is a major difference between a group of typical people, and a group of power seekers. Generally, most people believe in cooperation, golden rule, etc., even if they are not perfect in implementing such. Power seekers, in contrast, do not hold cooperation as an intrinsic value. Rather, they look to coercion, subterfuge, illusion, etc. to reach their goals.
There are two situations that I can think of where power seekers look to cooperation as an operating mode. One is when they are highly oppressed by average people or the society as a whole, and team together to survive against the system. The other is when one party (among the power seekers) becomes so unbelievably strong that all the other power seekers see no other option than to obey. Remember, of course, that obeying is the most hated concept to power seekers as it is, by definition, antithetical to their fundamental driving force of power seeking.
To assume monolithicity is much easier for the sake of conversation, but I frankly believe it is a complete illusion. There are very likely fights going on at many levels. The situation is more complex than either a) or b) above, and it may be fun to discuss in further detail at some point.
At lower levels the oligarchs and robber barons are duking it out for the resources and assets of their own citizenry and that of the peoples their military conquers through banking... this is critical process to create the horrible conditions necessary for the public acceptance of a global government.
I'll thank you now! ;)
We know what it took to stop the Japanesse. If that was the solution then, it will surely be now. We have trained the world on ending war. Now that there is nuclear proliferation by the thousands and in the hands of discouraging types with more crazy ideas than our own, we don't want to test those waters. Not sure all would give a hoot about MAD when they became desperate. Not sure the answers for the growing tensions but nuclear war is not one of them.
The average American is a leftist scumbag who deserves poverty and war. Both are coming lol. But they still have Negro Sport Ball to cheer for!
Vietnam was peckered up and Korea was a goat rope but this is a genuine peckered up goat rope.
Oh and Warren Buffet said "Merica has never been greater"
It's the world against Israel and it's modern day 'Golem' known as the US Federal Government; Golem in Hebrew means 'powerful dumb beast' that rescues the Jews from some predicament according to Jewish folklore. Most Jews consider the US as just that, their modern day dumb but powerful Golem. Let them try to get out from the predicament their in right now with Russia on their northern border. Russia is giving Israel the same treatment as as Israel did to them when Israel got their Golem DC to takeover Ukraine and sit on the Russian's border
And as many years as two U.S. Presidential terms later those same Germans were asking how their country got into a two front war they couldn't win. Two Fronts!
The Spratly Islands? Really? WTF interest does the US possibly claim to justify sending ships to the other side of the globe?
Call me when the Chinks claim Hawaii... Until then, how about we sit pat and work on passing a proper federal budget for the first time in over 20 years? Or perhaps prosecute some of our financial rapists?
Who believes any sane, rational power is at work in the United States government any more?
The USSA does not like when it cannot control ALL shipping lanes globally.
At least you spelt freedom correctly.The freedom for the USN to interdict shipping at will.
Even many here on ZH have fallen for the BS,its not about freedom of the sea lanes,its about
the control of them.By both sides.
HA, "budget" that is funny, they can't! It is impossible, debt has to continue to rise or the system collapses. You will NEVER.... N.E.V.E.R. see a balanced budget, EVER. Not under this type of monetary system, we have reached the event horizon. The insane bastards need a mother fucking global war just to keep it functioning for a few more years. We are going to come out of this snake as card carrying marxist standing in lines to get our fucking one potato and 1 ply shit paper. Mexicans will rue the day they ever crossed the Rio.
exactly; at the point where the interest on the Federal debt becomes equal to the marginal rate of return of the economy, then all productive increases of wealth go to the bondholders who have no incentive to invest in capital equipment, since they can continue to accumulate more and more government bonds ad infinitum thus ensuring for themselves and for their progeny absolute control over humanity for all time. As Rabbi Yosef, the Chief Rabbi of the Likud party currently in power in Israel, said "all goys are meant to serve Israel....their only purpose is to serve Israel".
Wake up sheep
It's for access to Taiwan, which is completely surrounded by Chinese claimed waters.
The US has done this repeatedly over the years. When someone claims a territorial limit greater than the US recognizes they send in ships to cause trouble and project power. When Qaddafi claimed the whole Gulf of Sidra as Libya's the US sent in ships to create an incident. When Libya sent out planes to investigate the US shot them down claiming they were just defending themselves and were heros. In the Gulf of Tonkin incident that LBJ used to escalate the Vietnam war North Vietnam claimed a limit beyond what the US recognized. The US sent in ships to violate the limit which caused the North Vietnamese to send boats out to investigate and the US claiming they were attacked. They did this a second time and were not challenged but claimed they were. Sources claim that the US ships were there to drop off foreign commandos to create havoc in the North. If true another violation if international law.
The US repeatedly flies on the very edge of the recognized limit to spy on Chinese and Russian operations and when they complain the US tells them to piss off. But have the Russians fly near but not close to US or it's puppets airspace the media and government talking heads go wild. Some even call for shooting down the Russian planes though they have not come close to violating any countries airspace. For decades with the U2 and Blackbird the US regularly violated Russian airspace. Cuba too. With those planes the US violated airspace all over the world. The US is so self righteous about being the one exceptional nation that is the only force for good on the planet yet it consistanly breaks international laws and violates air and sea limits with impunity. When the USS Vincennes shot down the Iranian passenger jet killing almost 300 people it was inside internationally recognized Iranian territorial waters at the time.
Spot on. The hard lessons of how maniacs and dictators rise to power has not been learned.
This is America we're talking about, so this isn't how a Hitler rises to power, it's how a President Camacho rises to power. Might be just as dangerous — but undoubtedly more stupid.
President Camacho only pawn in game of life.

@BMUS
Exactly. People addled by the anti-German hysteria think everything we know now was then plastered on signs on the autobahns, like Burma Shave ads. Or on the front pages: "Death camps operating at full capacity now!" "Gestapo seek contractors for corpse removals."
Sort your gear Yankee Doodle, pull on yer boots, put some oatmeal in yer hat, get some noo war songs and you are good to go...

Let's hope his Father's dream wasn't the total destruction of the U.S..
or the world.
Pootie for President
;-)
I respect Putin's intelligence, work ethic, and loyalty to his country. We in the US would be lucky to have a President with those qualities, but we don't. POTUS plays his mediocre golf game while the world burns.
Putin wouldn't lower himself to stand for president of the US. He only supports people who value their country and who are prepared to actually and physically defend it (e.g. east Ukraine and Syria). The US is only words, a paper tiger, through and through.
years ago 'reasonable" middle-East governments did the math and decided selling their oil in dollar-denominated reserves ceased to be logical. Sometime around the year 2000.
The result has been a forced alliance between Fed.Gov and "unreasonable" insane radical extremists-who quickly realized that all they need to do to keep Uncle Sam on their side was promise him they would continue oil sales in dollars.
Unfortunately their insanity has proven contagious
Understanding the NWO Strategy [1.3]
On this page, I’ll offer a comprehensive overview of the New World Order’s true nature and the globalists’ strategy in building it and presenting it to the public. Since this is a rather big subject, I’ll be constructing this entry in a modular way over time, so check back periodically to see what new material has been added.
http://redefininggod.com/understanding-the-nwo-strategy/PS I didn't write this, but I felt whoever did was pretty close to the mark with what is going on. Do I know for sure, no. However thought it might help to share.
smg- they just don't like anyone plugging a blog around here. if it's really you, let this be 1st contact. i am quite amazed at your politicaland spiritual discernment. really, not just blowing smoke up yer ass. carry on.
oops. not you. nevermind.
The author is Veriton, who posted above. Still, I really appreciate his 'thinking outside the box' pieces, and especially the links he provides. I personally believe we are fighting as much a spiritual war as anything else, and his perspective is invaluable.
In that case, it's good to have a population of young people... unemployed... sitting at home... waiting to do something for a buck...
You know...
Good thing they have games like Call of Doodie to hone their combat skills.
Don't think they'll do so willingly. The Draft will be back. That's what it took to get MY generation in a mood to openly protest.
If you think the draft will EVER be reinstated in our lifetimes, you really are naive.
What exactly is your Generation? Are you the kid that can't use a compass, or read a paper map?
Have you ever driven a fence post, or built a deck? Have you ever changed the oil in your Prius gear box?
Who's the Prime Minister of Germany? What's the difference between a referendum and an election?
Who's the current head of the IMF? What's the difference between the European Commision and the European Union?
No, I'm the old guy who protested Viet Nam on the Mall and climbed active volcanos for a hobby. Point is, when it gets bad enough their will be a draft. We will have them dang furiners to kill. Don't you know?
No draft, it would escalate to nuclear to quickly to matter.
Are you saying a military draft requires an educated and intelligent citizenry? I'd argue a military draft requires the exact opposite. Conscription is, after all, firmly rooted in the idiotic notion that the State owns each and every citizen.
Progressives have been notorious for starting wars, always through leading from behind of course, but none the less. They must have an army and no intelligent human being with an ounce of patriotism in their soul would ever fight for these assholes unless forced.
You can bet they will reinstate the draft....and soon. As well as revoking the posse comitatus,so they use their conscripts to enforce domestic peace and tranquility. They used to be able to rely on poverty to drive some to the military, but now days, entitlements ensure that there is no need for that as you can easily get paid for nothing.
CA just passed a law that provides for automatic voter registration when applying for license, so illegals neither need nor want legal status anymore, so don't bet on them signing up for service to buy their citizenship either,as like the rest of America they don't need no stinkin papers or job.
Yes, the Rothschild's are getting ready for the Great Reset via The district of criminals (D.C).
The ZIONazis declared War and Terror on humanity on Sept. 1, 2001 !
I don't know if they're "Trying To Start WWIII," but they certainly have enough hubris to get us there.
The stage was set for WWIII long before Zero got into office. He, and his handlers may be accelerating events, but WWIII started when the NWO tried to convince us that 19 cave men knocked down the twin towers.
Well carrying 16 Oz of baby formula on the plane is a big no-no, but dropping 50 TONS of ammo to "good" Al-Qaeda is A-OK. Nobel peace prize winner will explain to you which Al-Qaeda is "good" and which one is bad, in case you try to say something like: "IF WE ARE DROPPING 50 TONS OF AMMO TO AL-QAEDA, TERRORISTS HAVE WON!"
How do you know it won't happen next week or next month? Maybe someone realizes that it's going to be one disaster after another until it happens and decided to go for it.
Obama isn't running anything besides his golf game and whatever fluids get exchanged between himself and Reggie.
Rather, this is a concerted effort to at once strategically challenge Russia while propping up a tottering empire based on fake money forced on the world at the point of military (and clandestine) force.
Zbignew gave the game away when he demanded we shoot down Russian jets. Shameless whore politicos repeat this like the disappointment that is Gov. Christie.
Brace yourself for a false flag event.
I see no way to avoid WW3. I never thought it was possible. The US warmongers will never back down and be known forever as the people who lost this Country. So here it comes. Another war to end all wars? Sure, because a war will be unlikely during Nuclear Winter.
And oh yeah - New Zealand will not escape the horror. (watch the movie "on the beach")
"I see no way to avoid WW3."
Most of the filth that is threatening humanity would just need to not be a threat anymore.
IMO cooler heads of state in this world would need to concede that if the situation continues down this path then things would need to get real dirty real quick for the sake of avoiding WW3.
> Much of this ammunition will end up in the hands of those that the Russians are attempting to bomb into oblivion, and so to Russia it appears that we are attempting to make their job much harder.
So the Russians will just have to use bigger bombs and missiles.

I actually thought the subversion by the U.S., Israeli and British unholy covenant in the Ukraine overthrow would have started it last year, but I stood corrected...
Now all eyes are on Syria as the "flashpoint" after the Eastern Ukrainian rebels kicked ass and killed several thousand neo-nazis and as many as 3,000 "Academi/Dyncorp" regulars... Guess after George Soros lost all that money both he and the U.S. MIC had to regroup and try another "window" with all the doors locked and nailed shut!
I'll say it again.
If it does go to "Defcon 1" with the banking interests in the West hemorrhaging money by the second in these misdaventures they better have something other than offshore bank accounts with physical Au and Ag in them for the paid protection... Because once the caretakers comprehend what they've signed up to even the Georgy Schwartz's won't be safe underground!
It needn't go nuclear now. Russia's sub-launched kalibrs could make a mess of mainland US using conventional weapons. The panic alone from the actual loss of impunity would do amazing damage - everyone fleeing New York or LA or Washington by car to avoid another cruise missile strike. Total gridlock..
If WWIII means the total destruction of Washington DC and US military complex then I'm in for that.
Not only that but we are going to be on the wrong side. Our only interest is to preserve the petrodollar and keep the Middle East stirred up. Those are our two policy objectives. It has nothing to do with right or wrong or good or bad.
Reading Hitlers Banker at the moment.
John Weitz says that Hjalmar Schacht who is the subject of the book always said that no one, even as late as 1913, publicly predicted the start of WW1 in 1914.
Great book btw.
any reasonably cognitive person, anywhere, would agree this is inevitable.
. . . any reasonably cognitive person, anywhere, would agree this is inevitable.
It's just like the bully in high school picking on smaller kid(s) day after day . . . until one day the kid(s) lash out at the bully and in a lot of cases kick the bully's ass. Russia and China are not going to take being pushed around constantly by the USA - whether it's economically or militarily. Eventually they are going to say "enough is enough" and deal with the bully once and for all.
so,,, like,,,, does that ww3 come with any free apps?
No, just radioactive apples.
Did the Obama administration not want them destroyed for some reason?
Duh . . . .
My little world has a garden in it that I have been sharing with three Russians. One American and three Russians. We just finished harvesting the beets and if you look at your local supermarket you will see that beets are not cheap at all. One of the three was my wife and they questioned what I was doing and why. The other Russian couple said that it won't work the way I wanted do it and I just gave them a look. We did it my way and they walked away with several hundreds of dollars worth of beets today. Very nice beets but it was that way all summer long for everything else. You get out of something what you put into it.
We bought a hog together and they are a little short of cash so I paid for it all and now they are on the payment plan. They have been good on paying what they can and I don't charge interest. That sort of information travels quickly and spreads. There is no wish for us to fight each other. The idea is for us to help each other when we can of our own volition. I don't see race, religion or nationality as an issue in my judgements about other people: Either you are an asshole or you are not. It really is that simple.
Are you going to help your neighbor when asked or not? Politicians often want to FORCE you to help your neighbor when he never asked for it. If you do not want any help then I will not offer help and let you go about your business. If you need some help I will do my best for you. Does that sound reasonable?
Call me romantic if you must.
Dwight, is that you? :)

Many of us feel the same, and strive to not prejudge anyone. The problem is....
lots of people don't live that way. They are the ones to watch for. And when shit hits the fan, the world acts like a centrifuge, spinning madly humanity starts separating into its different molecular weights (race, religion, ideologies, etc).
Once this refinement has reached high enough concentrations, we get critical mass....boom. Suddenly neighbors for years hate each other guts, and seek to spill them on the pavement.
We see this again and again where hostilities can be separated for centuries and suddenly inflame almost overnight.
I believe the assholes who want to run things are deliberately spinning this shit into a dervish madness that no one will be able to resolve...or even understand. Enemies and allies crossing so many different barriers and shifting lines of alliance so that complete chaos reins. It will be something out of Dante's Inferno
Your point is well taken.
Yup
Ww3 will be seen as child's play.
What is in store is quite a bit darker.
The only reason you think WW3 has'nt started already Mr Snyder is because you are watching the MSN and not paying attention.
As a mater of fact I don;t remenber very many points in WW2 where the fighting was going on in this many places simultaniously
This terror thing is engulfing the planet.
Hot wars going on continuously in Afganistan, Iraq, Syria, Ukraine,
Muslim terror of Boko Haram in Chad which has now started and spilled over into Nigeria.
French troops fighting Islamists rebels in Mali,
Libya so many different teams its hard to tell total disater.
Actually africa is in turmoil in so many areas I will just list this
http://www.warsintheworld.com/?page=static1258254223
Yenem war against Saudi arabia
Isael against the Golan
then you have known terror attacks in Chechna, Russia, China, Tajakistan,France, Turkey,Pakistan, man I cant remember them all
Countries involved in these wars are almost to numerous to list.
Now the US wants to get China in the rumble
It would be easier to list the countries that are not involved either directly or supplying troops or equipment or money in these wars than ones that are not.
At what point do we call it WW3
good point
Sorry about spelling in prior post, I was correcting it and it got answered by ORCK
IS this not a legitimate question though. IS THIS NOT A LEGITIMATE DAMN QUESTION?
When are we going to just drop the charade and call it what it fucking is, everyone knows who is on what side. Easy-- East vs West. ITS DISGUSTING The broke ass, cry baby West is going to drag everyone down in a flaming assed pit rather than accept and take responsibility for their own ineptitude.
The US just today asked its its lapdog Australia to bring some ships to their stupid 12 mile sand castle showdown. For WHAT?" Show how tough you are by driving by? What a joke. Is this not Australia's main trade partner? The U.S. is just going around seeing how fast it can light fires everywhere so that will take years for everyone else on the planet to put out. People better start waking up and fast.
The author, Michael Snyder (jewish), cant wait Washington to start a WW3... This is what he wishes and expects... This info is from his own website where he advertises one of his books:
RE-GATHERING OF THE TEN LOST TRIBES OF ISRAEL - MICHAEL SNYDERSince the time of Solomon, the Tribes have been divided. Michael will show you how they will be reunited in Israel as one. Israel will be victorious in WWIII and get back all her land from the Euprates to the Nile. Massive amounts of oil will be discovered in Israel. Israel will rise up to be one of the world's richest strongest nations.
http://www.prophecyclubresources.com/RE-GATHERING-OF-THE-TEN-LOST-TRIBES...
it also remindds me Henry Kissinger's plans for middle east... War with Russia, China, and arabs in order to create a Greater Israel...
http://www.globalresearch.ca/accurate-satire-henry-kissinger-if-you-can-...
So, in my opinion all these wars in the Middle East are fought to expand Israel, and I think this is why Zionists push US and other countries into a conflict over there...
King Solomon was a magic mushroom.
Look it up.
Michael T. Snyder is a fundamentalist Christian crank who has started numerous blogs as a testament to his raging insane belief that the world is about to end. He started withThe Economic Collapse Blog in 2007, with constant articles stating how the world is going to hell every single day since the meltdown started in 2007. It seems as though Snyder blames the government for every ill in the world, because without it everything would be great.
Like most doom-sayers, it doesn't seem to faze Snyder one bit that every one of his past predictions of economic collapse were dead wrong. This horrendous track record would cause most people to reevaluate their beliefs in the effort to one day be right. Yet, he simply refuses to even address or acknowledge that he has been wrong thousands of times, especially if you count each numbered item of his massive lists. He seems to have explosive diarrhea of the mind that no amount of logic can slow or stop.
The Chinese will not retaliate using military methods - they know better than that.
They will retaliate using financial methods. Basically without limit selling T-bills for bucks and selling those bucks for just about anything of tangible value. The Americans are trying to conjure up a good excuse to default on China and China is already wise to that.
Unfortunately assumptions like this can turn out to be wrong, and all of a sudden we find, Ooops, maybe we shouldn't have gone so far, and a domino has been pushed over.
This is another risk out there, Powers assuming this country or that wont do this or that. We suddenly had Russia shooting a whole bunch of missiles into Syria, using its planes in Syria - all of a sudden Russia has gone red hot in Syria, all Powers would not have expected this.
The USA powers making assumptions based on their earlier arrongance and hemgemony with regard to China and Russia is extremely dangerous. China and Russia are not Syria, Iraq, South America.
Not to worry, Michael.
The Treaty of Landing Strip One successfully defuses the eventuality of a 'hot' World War.
Give BB a little credit, for Pete's sake.
The American people will at the end of the day wished they turned off the TV and cared what the govt was doing. Instead they will have scorched earth and food very difficult to find.
US citizens I think assume that major conflicts don't do anything on home soil, that is the past. In any future war it will be a strategic neccessity to ensure the citizens of each side feel the pain of war. Part of bringing a war to close is causing incredible pain to your enemies citizens in their own back yard, and with modern weaponry that becomes very easy.
The Oligarchs probably feel they have secured themselves, taken all the precautions neccessary to protect themselves in the event of a Hot war they might cause. But there will be no protecting anybody from anything.
Im heading to Darwin, for the Darwin Elevator.
Oh No, 112 pallets of cookies.
Putin sees Obama's pen and phone, and raises him a functioning army and air force in Syria.
Moar fundamental transformation coming our way.
The article cites an Infowars report as a source though. Ugh.
"Is Washington Actually Trying To Start World War III?"
Yes, the NWO could eliminate people living on the government tit and population quickly.
Nice article. Glad that I read it. I don't buy the incompetence theory.
Way to much synchronization to be entirely unplanned.
A certain intelligence is behind this.
And it's clearly not benevolent toward humanity.
Finally!
Yup...this had more to do with magick then most are aware of.
There is an egregore that is growing from the beyond. Bombs have no relevance.
This is well beyond ww3.
I have just come from a website where some old granny claims to be on the Celestial Council and that Putin is a heavenly Avatar fighting on behalf of Jesus Christ......unfortunately her middle east policy is saner than the state departments.
What's new ? NOTHING ! The int'l banksters need another big-ass war as the grand distraction to "bug/exit, stage left" unnoticed, AND make money funding ALL the protagonists .
Dubya said, ‘Clash of civilizations!’
Jeb says, ‘Longer hours.’

In 2008, when the Negro was elected, the neocons were quite confident that their Missile Defense Shield plan would be able to obliterate the Russian response to what they called "The General George Washington Nuclear First Strike and Sneaky Attack."
Probably the most honorable military action the US Military ever considered undertaking in the 240 odd years of 'We, the Last Best Hope.'
But as Robert Burns famously wrote 10 years after our nation's creation:
Today there is considerable doubt that Americas' nuclear first strike would successfully wipe out Russia's formidable response.
And America's 1% are skeptical about how few of Russia's nuclear devices are going hit their targets on Fifth Ave., Lake Shore Drive and Beverly Hills.
What if the Strip in Vegas is hit and the slots at Bellagio fall silent? or Wynns?
Or the causeway to Palm Beach collapses?
No doubt the 1% have been on their dedicated land lines to the Pentagon for some time now.
Watch out for the spoon bread and the hog maws, Obama. Maybe even get another food taster.
What need does the United States have for a counterforce mission when it is heavily predominant in conventional warfighting abilities? None.
Other countries anxious to block the use of American conventional prowess, however, have no viable choice except to risk counterforce if asymetrics and useful idiots do not do the job.
'
Conventional abilities, tarabel, what does that have to do with anything?
Is there some von Clauswitzian canon which stipulates that once conventional warfighting begins, the adversaries are prescribed from ever going nuclear?
In the middle of the first decade of the 21st century, NATO's 'drang nach osten' was thought by the neocons to be the precursor of America's nuclear first strike if Russia didn't bend the knee and toe the US line.
In the last 10 years, not only has it come to the world's attention that a trapped and intimidated Russia could itself make the nuclear first strike but also resort to its nuclear forces if and when conventional 'warfighting' goes against them.
I'll say this again for your benefit.
AMERICA HAS MILLIONS MORE TO LOSE THAN RUSSIA IF THERE IS A NUCLEAR EXCHANGE.
"The stage is being set for World War III, but most Americans are completely and totally oblivious to all of this because they are so wrapped up in their own little worlds."
Why does everyone keep blaming the American people for this stuff? Obama doesn't ask our permission before he commits all his crimes. The Congress rubber stamps it all over our protestations and most of us have a hard enough time keeping the lights on that all of this stuff is going to have to take care of itself. When they have a referendum on "do you want America to be the world's war criminal, ravage everyone and wage serial wars of empire for the enrichment of corporations," I'll vote no. To date, they haven't. They just do it, no matter whom we elect. So fuck it. I'm going to get drunk now.
Welcome to the Twilight Zone where we find one 'Dr_Snooz' an aging American that is about to get drunk instead of thinking of a way to put a stop to his out-of-control fascist government. In tonight's episode 'Dr_Snooz' suddenly realizes Einstein's Theory of Insanity which is the act of repeating the same behaviour over and over again with the expectation of achieving a different result. Will 'Dr_Snooz' creatively come up with a solution, ladies & gentleman? Or will 'Dr_Snooz' just get drunk again, and pass out like most Americans who ask the same questions before they indulge in their favorite pastime? Stay tuned to this station to see the story of 'Dr_Snooz' the American with a problem & brewskies! What will the outcome be, ladies & gentleman?
My solution: Stop struggling against Evil and do something to promote Good. Evil can NEVER eradicate all Good, and Good can NEVER eradicate all Evil. A line is defined as a distance between two points, in this case one point is extreme Evil and the other point is extreme Good. Good luck finding a line with only one end.
Cracks me up when "folk's" make partisan references.
Some "folk's" try to blame 'republicans'.
Other "folk's" try to blame 'democrats'.
Them ain't the "folk's" THEY gotta worry about.
"They" only woryy about the "folk's" who stop participating.
In other words..The smart "folk's".
Keep an eye on this story ...

If the US was determined on escalating this into a hot conflict, I would expect China or Russia to start offing execs of defense contractors, department heads, members of the deep state, bankers, etc. Those are the people they are at war with after all and they're all for the most part incredibly soft targets. For those two countries the resources required for such operations would be insignificant. Then if it goes bad, they just claim it was some random wacko a competitor, etc. They would have limited downside and pretty decent upside.
I'm a little surprised something hasn't happened in the USA since all the warehouses and buildings in China have started blowing up like fireworks factories in a pink panther movie.
Major conflicts won't necessarily involve massive armies in our time. They are far more likely to follow what is referred to as "4th Generation Warfare" as much as that term makes me cringe. (It's not a new thing, it's actually a really old kind of warfare.) John Robb has written some pretty good stuff on the subject for anyone interested.
If you Google the Iran/Contra hearings one hears alot about Country One .
The Russkies have taken a pasting in the Afghan area,thanks to complex
weapon systems being introduced to the conflict.They cannot be happy about this
outcome and they have long memories.(Don't we all...)
Then they lost their Iraqi (Mahjoon?) oil leases after the US conquest of Iraq.
Now they about to lose some of their aircraft again to shoulder fired MANPADS.
I don't think they will be impressed at all.(How would we feel in this same position?)
And of course there is Ukraine.It is fairly clear that many of these countries are
only an illusion of stability,and the west has kicked over an anthill,with no plans
on what to do next.An incredible number of lives would have been saved if this
"Creative chaos" exercise had been avoided.
We all better hope some of those missles liberated from Libyan stocks,transported
across the Med to Turkey and then given to the most irresponsible people on the
planet,do not end up bringing down some civilian airliners around the planet.
Russia can poke America back in the eye to see who shows up at these droppings and then kill them all.
World War III will turn Europe in a smoking pile of rubble again. We Europeans sort of get sick and tired of that but our dear beloved leaders are too blind to see what is really going on.
The whole US military policy post WWII regarding Russia has been to fight it in / over Europe allowing mainland US to escape without damage yet again. The alternative would be nuclear war (or so it was thought) which no one rational would want. The submarine launched kalibrs - heck they are launchable from shipping containers - have totally changed that. War can come to the US mainland without things escalating to nukes. The US would then receive probably fatal psychological shock seeing its sense of impunity disappear before its eyes.
Thing is, posting here at ZH is about as potent as most of us get at protest. We should be in the streets en masse as during'Nam, only now if you do that the Feds will have a file on you in the time it takes to log onto XKeyscore. They'll know everything about you and I'll bet they even have software that pulls up your "natural weaknesses" to automatically create a control file. Go and protest no more.
THAT'S the America we're fighting for!
it might feel like WW3, but its really just a couple of other Superpowers taking bites out of the boundaries of our Empire.
these are significant changes, though. China trying to "own" all of the China Sea inside the first island chain. And Russia seeking to partner with a new Shiite Empire - Iran/Iraq. Those are pretty big changes.
You can't accuse Obama of war-mongering, that's rashist!
Makes me smile when people talk about rich coming to nz to escape. They should check out the fault lines before they buy. James Cameron's spread is next to a doozy - 5.8 this week and regularly has big shaking. If the missiles start flying we will be a target because of our five eyes installations.
ps love the witty names eg Pooty poot. Shall I be the first to use Oatsbama
what is your take on likely hardfought battlegrounds like was the Far East and Central-Northen Europe in WW2?
I know is quite useless to try and resemble future all-out conflicts to past ones, but the build-up to this WW3 is, in my view, bound to be messy, with countless civilian casualites and infrastructure devastation.
So, what`da think?
SO WHAT ARE THE ODDS ...
of a Chinese ship colliding with an American ship in the next two weeks? I'd say, pretty darn good.
Sure hope the USA renewed our subscription to American Auto Association (AAA), might need a tow truck :-)
There won't be battlegrounds. everything will be glass within one hour as no one will back down. I was 15 years old during the turkish missile crisis (cuban missile crisis in US) and we had no expectation of survival in UK. British Civil Defence was disbanded as it would be no use in nuclear attack. Shortly after that I emigrated to nz. Forward planning lol
Lesson:
1. Russia should have entered Syria much earlier
2. A No fly zone should be effected in Syria to stop western bastards
Russia couldn't have entered Syria earlier. Everything is so damned hard in this world controlled by zionists and so everything takes time. Listen to this, how a famous Russian philosopher and politician describes Putin's hard mission: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mTNT_rovr9E
They can call Lyndon LaRouche crazy all they want, but he got this one right years ago. He knew what Obama was all along.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DwLVNbFtQSI
This is fucking absolute batshit crazy - this is literally pouring gasoline on a bonfire. Why the fuck would Obama & Co do something so stupid? The only logical answer is that they want the Middle East to continue burning. Putin is doing a very good job of mopping up ISIS in the ME. You guys think ZH is a Russian love fest, in Iraq you have people naming their kids after Putin now! He is literally a rock star in Iraq.
What will happen in Iraq in next 12 months is all US companies will get the squeeze put on and pushed out. Already, you have the Russian and Chinese drillers stealing the lunches of Halliburton Iraq (Big layoffs), Schlumberger-Baker Hughes Iraq (big layoffs), Weatherford (big lay offs) and Nabors (dead). Yes, Invading Iraq in 2003 was wrong. Yes, murdering Saddam Hussein in a kangaroo court was wrong. But the US spent trillions to open up Iraq and the cold, hard facts that the Obama Admin and DOS won't admit is that the US just flushed a trillion dollars down the toilet because to be a Yank in Iraq right now is a liability.
Americans clearly cant be bothered to stop Obama from sowing the wind. Thus America will reap the whirlwind.
Yep. It's astonishing that after the US/UK spent vast sums of their taxpayers money destroying vast amounts of Iraqi infrastructure, destroying Iraqi society, killing vast numbers of innocent people (with plenty of torture thrown in for good measure), all in the name of spreading democracy, that Iraq is now rejecting Western values and sees its future more closely aligned with Russia and Iran.
I think that's called "a very expensive own goal".
Ditto Libya. Ditto Afghanistan. Ditto Ukraine. Ditto Syria.
wwiii will last for a few minutes, and I bet russians have some unseen technology that can make them win a nuclear war... but I think there will be no wwiii, usa and the eu puddle will do what bullies always do: run away and hide like cowards (when they meet somone stronger)...
"All the war-propaganda, all the screaming and lies and hatred, comes invariably from people who are not fighting." George Orwell
Traditionally elites have like sending the children of the poor to war, while they take the spoils afterwards.
Nuclear weapons have changed the game and they can't guarantee they can ride it out safely.
Why the Cold War stayed cold.
But with the lunatics in charge of the US at the moment anything is possible.
>>>At the end of the day, the U.S. supports just about anyone that wants to get rid of the Assad regime-
No, at the end of the day the USSA supports anyone who will be friendly to the international banking system-they would put Charlie Manson in charge, as long as he knowtowed to the Bankers. Next on the List: Russia
Mercans will finally have the war to end all wars...at home and up close. Our cities are already burning.
Onward to the collapse that the rest of humanity is praying for US!
Let's hope Russia will not airdrop small atomic bombs eazy enough for unhappy civilians to use pressing one red button inside US or US allies countries.
After seeing how citizen is beeing sucked out of life, money and time by his gov. i might consider pressing red button.
Somebody can tell me what is difference enters moderat djihadiste and a fundamentalist dijhadiste. It's look like my wife in the bad day.
http://russia-insider.com/en/2015/03/22/4790
NATO Is Marching Towards Russia, and They Have No Idea What Awaits ThemAmerica is fully aware that the way to draw Russia into a conflict is to push forward towards Russia’s borders. In time, Russia will be forced to defend its right to exist, and when this happens, western powers will not know what hit them!
This all makes sense if you realize that Obola hates America and will do everything and anything possible to see its destruction.
After destroying its economy, its currency (with the help of the Fed), and finally its borders, his final objective is the land itself.
Push Russia and China far enough and very soon we'll see an EMP bomb eliminate any functioning equipment in America. Not even the military will be able to protect us. Our society will crumble, people will starve and then the foreign militaries can begin the subjugation of the land.
Then, and only then, will Obola be happy. Once you accept this, then the news makes complete sense.
World war has always been in Europe.
