Russia Takes Over The Mid-East: Moscow Gets Green Light For Strikes In Iraq, Sets Up Alliance With Jordan
Once it became clear that Moscow and Tehran had jointly planned the incursion in Syria with Russia promising full air support and Iran pledging ground troops from Hezbollah, its various Shiite militias, and the IRGC, we immediately suggested that Iraq was next on the agenda after the Assad regime is restored.
For those unfamiliar with the situation on the ground, we encourage you to read “Who Really Controls Iraq? Inside Iran's Powerful Proxy Armies,” in which we outline the extent to which Tehran effectively controls both the Iraqi military and the politicians in Baghdad.
The US allows this because i) there’s really not much Washington can do about it, and ii) even if there was, it would mean first trying to root out Iranian influence on the political process and second attempting to separate the Shiite militias from the Iraqi regulars, which would only serve to weaken the country’s ability to resist Sunni extremists like ISIS. The other important thing to understand about Iran’s proxy armies in Iraq is that they are the very same militias fighting alongside the Russians in Syria (we mean “very same” in the most literal sense possible as they were called over the border by Quds commander Qassem Soleimani himself). This means they are Washington’s allies in Iraq but as soon as they cross the border into Syria, they become the targets of US-supported and supplied rebels battling at Aleppo. Obviously, that makes absolutely no sense and is emblematic of just how schizophrenic Washington’s Mid-East strategy has become. It’s also worth noting that these are the same Shiite militias who, with Tehran’s blessing, attacked US troops in Iraq after George Bush destroyed the US-Iran post-9/11 alliance by putting the country in his infamous “Axis Of Evil" (see here for more).
Here's a picture that should give you an idea about why Iran's proxy armies have proven particularly effective at bullying the ISIS bully, so to speak:
Meanwhile, flying missions over Iraq is the logical next step for The Kremlin in Russia’s bid to supplant the US as Mid-East superpower puppet master. One would be hard pressed to come up with a more humiliating scenario for Washington than for the US to be effectively kicked out of the country it “liberated” over a decade ago by Vladimir Putin on the excuse that try as they may (or may “not”, depending on how prone you are to conspiracy theories), the Americans are apparently not very good at fighting terror.
Just like in Syria, Russian airstrikes would be supported by Iran-backed fighters on the ground, and thanks to the IRGC’s grip over Iraqi politics, Moscow would find Baghdad very receptive to Russia’s presence in the country.
The US knows all of this of course and in an effort to get out ahead of the situation, Washington sent Gen. Joseph Dunford (chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff) to Iraq this week to issue what can only be described as a petulant, childish ultimatum to PM Haider al-Abadi. “It’s either us, or the Russians,” Abadi was told, although not specifically in those terms. Here’s what Dunford actually said:
"I said it would make it very difficult for us to be able to provide the kind of support you need if the Russians were here conducting operations as well. We can't conduct operations if the Russians were operating in Iraq right now."
(Iraqi PM Haider al-Abadi)
Although the PM purportedly pledged not to request Russian assistance, anyone who’s followed the story knows Dunford’s trip was far too little, far too late.
ISIS has been running amok in Iraq for more than a year and the US appears powerless to stop them. As we noted, there are several theories as to why Washington is so intent on keeping Moscow out. The common sense theory that requires no conspiratorial ruminations says that the US is desperate to avoid ceding Baghdad to Russia and the Pentagon knows that with Iran already effectively in control of the army and the government, Russia would find a very receptive military and political environment. For those inclined to think that in addition to any initial support (i.e. funding and training prior to the official formation of ISIS), the US is still supporting Islamic State, well then the worry for Washington is that Russia simply wipes them out.
Whatever the case, Iraq has apparently had just about enough of it and indeed, one of the reasons Dunford made the trip was that last week, Abadi said he would “welcome Russian airstrikes.” Throw in the brand new intelligence sharing center in Baghdad jointly staffed by Russia, Iran, and Syria and it’s pretty clear that despite what Abadi might have told Dunford to reassure the Pentagon, the "red" coats (if you will) are indeed coming.
Sure enough, according to Turkey’s state run Anadolu Agency, Russia has now received permission from Iraq to target ISIS convoys coming from Syria. Here’s more:
The Iraqi government authorized Russia to target Daesh convoys coming from Syria, a senior Iraqi official said.
The authorization for Russia to target Daesh inside Iraq comes amid security coordination between Iraq, Russia, Iran and Syria.
Hakem al-Zamli, chief of the Iraqi parliament’s security and defense committee, told Anadolu Agency on Friday that the measure contributed to weakening Daesh by cutting off its supply routes.
That will be just the beginning. We assume the whole “convoys from Syria” language is an effort on Baghdad’s part to make it sound like this isn’t a green light for Russia to take over the skies above Iraq but one certainly wonders how Washington intends to respond given that Abadi just told Dunford Iraq wouldn’t allow this to happen.
And that’s not all.
Russia has now created yet another intelligence sharing cell in the Mid-East, this time in Jordan as Moscow and Amman are set to work together to rout ISIS. Here’s RT:
Russia and Jordan agreed to create a coordination center in Amman, which will be used by the two countries to share information on the counter-terrorism operations, Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov said.
Russia is already in touch with Iran, Iraq and Syria through a Baghdad-based center used for the same purpose.
Lavrov said Jordan would play a positive part in finding a political solution to the Syrian conflict through negotiations between Damascus and opposition forces, an outcome that Russia itself is pursuing.
“Under an agreement between His Majesty King Abdullah II and Russia’s President Vladimir Putin, the militaries of the two countries have agreed to coordinate their actions, including military aircraft missions over the Syrian territory,”Lavrov said. His Jordanian counterpart Nasser Judeh said the center would serve as an efficient communication tool for the militaries of the two nations.
As you might recall, Jordan's King Abdullah wasn't exactly pleased after ISIS released a video showing a Jordanian pilot being burned alive. Here's the visual message he sent to the group after the video surfaced:
Once again, it's important to understand that this is all made possible by the fact that the US, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey decided to use extremist groups as their weapon of choice to destabilize Assad. That gives Moscow all the political and PR cover it needs to not only make a pure power play in Syria, but to establish closer diplomatic and political ties in Iraq and now Jordan. Thanks to the fact that the Western media has held up ISIS as the devil incarnate, The Kremlin has a foolproof cover story for what is quite clearly becoming a sweeping attempt to establish Russian influence across the region.
Finally, don't forget that with each move Russia makes towards replacing the US as Mid-East superpower puppet master, Iran gets that much closer to supplanting Saudi Arabia as regional power broker. The Kremlin's alliance with Jordan plays right into that dynamic as the Moscow-Tehran nexus is literally encircling Riyadh, Doha, and the UAE...

Putin for Prez
I think most of the world can see what's going to happen once Putin is finished putting the pieces all back together again. Peace is going to break out. And that's something that the US admin. just can't comprehend. [And I don't mean 'the American people'. It's the admin. acting as the puppet for the global banking mafia.] Can they accept peace in the Middle East? Hard to say, but when there is peace in the world, the US military industrial complex, the bankers, the fascist corporations, the dark side in general can't rule and make obscene amounts of money robbing the rest of the world.
As difficult as it is for most westerners to wrap their heads around... we are on the wrong side. Our 'side' is really and truly the dark side. The side that is ruled by the banking cabal and who is hell bent on causing war after war after war in the name of expanding their hold on the entire planet.
It's also considered a mortal sin in the west to cheer for the enemy. And maybe that's the proper and loyal stance to have, but cheering for Putin's success is not cheering for the enemy. The dark side, 'our side', is the world's enemy. Your children's enemy. Your grand children's enemy. The enemy of all of humanity and what is 'right'. Then enemy of this entire once-beautiful planet.
So ya, I want to see Putin be left alone to reassemble the god damned mess the bankers have caused. And then I want to see westerners turn our furious gaze inward... at the real cause of all the world's trouble. Our governments' day of reckoning is what westerners should be focusing on.
"...It's also considered a mortal sin in the west to cheer for the enemy..."
Critical thinking ability is also a mortal sin in the West. Which would quickly lead one to surmise that the term 'enemy' is a neurolinguistic trick used by psychopaths to make you do something against your will, morals or better judgement. Replace 'enemy' with a more succinct term: 'evil'. Is Russia evil? No. Would you cheer for evil? Of course not. See how easy it is to untwist the psychopath's perverted logic?
Some great comments, here. I'm afraid to thunbs up some of these. Microsoft and Google are probably capturing my every mouse click.
I offer only one thought: were the Russians (God bless 'em) to attain control of most of the Middle East's oil, we zeros in the USA would find ourselves living back in 1850.
The Russian Federation under President Putin's leadership has no intention 'to attain control of most of the Middle East's oil' as you posted.
Their objective is to eradicate the terrorism that is destabilizing the region (thanks to the sponsorship of the U.S.) which is an important part of the overall global economy. Putin knows he has to be very careful how he uses the Russian military since it would be dangerous to take on too much at one time. He has to work with the leadership of each of the governments who hold their respective countries together while keeping an eye on Eastern Ukraine because the U.S. neocons are still in control of the Kiev Nazi regime which could flare up at any time.
This is an extremely difficult challenge for Russia but Putin is a master of many skills and is up to the task.
i certainly hope so. because the u.s. neocons and their first allegiance israel are still in control of the u.s. government as well as the kiev nazi regime, as likely you know.
but perhaps not quite as effectively as, say, a month or two ago. we must not relent.
Freeing MidEast oil/gas from US control will end the imperial tax that the PetroDollar GRC system and infinite leverage provide.
If Russia succeeds in ending US dollar hegemony, we will reach the same ends by different means ('Muricans will be deprived of their God given right to exceptionally cheap oil, and relatively priced out of the international oil markets). So whether increasing Russian control of or influence over the oil is the object (or more accurately reducing US control of or influence over the oil), or whether this a byproduct of Russia's actual objective is somewhat irrelevant in the larger geopolitical context, and on a long enough timeline.
Some great comments, here. I'm afraid to thumbs up some of these. Microsoft and Google are probably capturing my every mouse click.

this is not an accidental double post or it wouldn't be separated from the original.
you wouldn't be fishing here would you?

Not separated by comments on the first post???
seems innocent to me.
Fair point GtG. The thing is, I'm seeing more of these lately. The message in the content (not the double post), is be afraid. Be very afraid. Maybe a sheeple stampede is coming?
maybe 2% Americans can think
when is last time you witnessed one stop to think?
here ZH is stronger
but also too many think is comedy club which evidence my point
don't forget the storied history of comedians/jesters as truth tellers.

Yeah and they're all critical thinkers in Russia, with RT leading the critical thinking charge... critically pissed more like it. Russia has not got a hope in fucking hell, it's complete raison d'etre is based in conspiracy and absurd distortions of the truth. Time to slap the crazy Russian bitch back down where she belongs, on the floor playing with her own slobbers.
Your post stinks of desperation. Sucks to be you.
How far can you get on a pack of lies? Back in the box in 3,2,1...
spot on post Albertarocks
Peace will not break out. If the US is evicted from the ME the petrodollar will soon follow. If nothing else, the US will redouble their efforts either in the ME or some other place in the world.
I'm not sure you meant to, but you just reinforced everything I said. Thanks.

Why can't Bernie and Trump see they could create a common party on that platform and crush the BillaryBeastRHINOs forever?
dallas, november '63?
just a guess.
Your comments are the best summary I ever read.
Ah yes, the middle east will be a peaceful place, just like it's long history before the West ever had any involvement there.
I look forward to that.
(Do I need to put a sarcasm tag on that or did I lay it down thick enough?)
Please identify any liveable portion of the Earth's surface that has had a long history of being a peaceful place.
iceland :) and lets throw in greenland for good measure.
well it was 700 years between the sturlungs and the cod wars.
and exactly what point in history are you refering to where the West was not involved?
West meaning US.
Any time during the 6000 years before that, I'll let you choose.
"I think most of the world can see what's going to happen once Putin is finished putting the pieces all back together again. Peace is going to break out. And that's something that the US admin. just can't comprehend. "
I don't think that the War Profiteers are going to just shrug, stop taking our money from us, and find useful productive activities with which to earn honest livings so easily...
It's right about next year that South America should start to disintegrate.
Argentina., Venezuela, Brazil, Mexico: are ALL in serious trouble due to excessive/corrosive mismanagement and corruption, narco trade and human trafficing dynamics, commodities cycle collaps/reversions, resource depletions, etc..
Texas will have it's 'Hungarian' border moment soon enough as large populations finally give up any hope for political order and economic stability in their homelands and migrate north to the relative political stability and economic health ( and the generous social/welfare benefits! ) offered by the political ideologues in the US and Canada...
I expect that the usual political/policy factions the US will each welcome a wave of several millions of migrants, and launch military incursions into convulsing failed or failing South American states, albeit for differently stated reasons or ideological affinities...
IF the South American situation is not a large enough crisis to merit interventions and migrations it will be aggravated/enhanced to the point where it is worth of interventions by the Warfare/Welfare State nexus.
It could happen that way but I don't think the US will hold up for long. We are headed for our own collapse and we might get there just as soon as South America. The welfare benefits will stop or become worthless if they don't get here soon enough they will be wasting the trip.
ThroxxOfVron
South Americans are used to living in chaotic conditions, and expect little to nothing from their governments, when it comes to social assistance or welfare. They will do comparatively better than the US should the dollar system implode due to debt.
The most dangerous enemy of all is the enemy within, especially the well-hidden, deeply entrenched enemy.
The dark side has many shades of gray, not just black.
Wonderful and accurate summation of the truth.
Please, step into my clone machine and make 10 million copies of your keen intellect because America needs to understand the republic is being systematically dismantled and replaced with a unitary fascistic oligarchy. Perhaps some clever technogeek can make a smartphone 'app' to alert the nation that world war is coming if the people don't stand up to these thugs and miscreants in Washington, DC.
guess it might be bad down under then thought
Huh? Alberta in Canada? Down under?
Wait a minute. Is this American public school geography?
@Alberta, well stated Sir!
I doubt you remember me, but way back in the day when SeekingAlpha still ran non-Wall Street stooge crap I commented there quite often.
As my hub still believes that I am nuts to think the system is at risk (it hasn't happened by now, so, of course is cannot happen, he is still 100% invested in the market, and according to him, an investing genius!), I quit posting with me real name so he can't use it against me in our Unionist courts when I finally can't take anymore.
This is t e r e s a e
How have you been? Miss your thoughts and info, so very much.
Hi T!!! Of course I remember you. You and I had (probably still 'have') a lot in common. Just between you and me, I think I had a bit of a crush on you. Haha
I've been very well thanks, getting better with the years in fact... kind of like an old wine, I guess. And how are you doing?
Geez, it's been so many years since I was over at SA. It's good to hear your voice. And no... you're not nuts. But who could have ever known the Fed would pull off the stunts they have pulled off since you and I last spoke? All they have done is make matters 5 times worse than in 2008.
Heck, I even ran my own blog for a couple of years since you and I last crossed paths but I don't do that anymore either. I comment here every once in a while but I'm more active on Twitter. But I just do mostly comedy over there. And the occasional outburst against Monsanto and that foul crowd. lol
Thanks for reaching out my friend.
Obama must feel like one of Bill Cosby's dates: This is all happening too fast...
That is unfair to the Cosby girls. Haven't they suffered enough? Now they are getting compared to Barry. Poor ladies.
A lot of people knew Cosby was a scum bag back in the 80s. Whores hung out with him because he had money and fame. Comparing them to Obama shouldn't hurt them any. There is a similarity.
This is amazing!! Murikistan totally has lost control of their petrodollar superiority in 5 WEEKS! The rest will just be formalities of setting up the re republics of Iraq, Syria, Yemen, Libya, and Afghanistan for russia and iran to reside over. This is the best cock-up in the history of the modern era! Masterclass geopolitical strategy, Russia and Iran. Not like it wasn't handed to you on a silver platter or anything by obombya and his nerry band of mentally retarded sycophants, but still. Well played.
P.S. Murikistan doesn't survive this. Im hoping the great lakes region goes to the canadians though.
Perhaps the Russians have learned a thing or two watching the "great satan" and "little satan" in action and will be a little less malevolent. There's somthing really ironic about Iran and Iraq joining forces with Russia.
That's the way I see it too. To be honest I think the leaders over there can see the writing on the wall, the plan that the bankers have of taking over the entire world and enslaving all of humanity with debt. The entire plan has been in the works for centuries and it's so diabolical it's unthinkable. But it's happening right before the eyes of the entire world. It looks to me like it's crunch time, Putin, Jinping along with some of the other more lucid leaders have realized that they have better stand up to the banking monsters or get run over by them forever. They set up the new AIIB to rival the Fed, China has set up a new gold pricing facility... these are incredibly important and bold developments designed to break away from the grip of these satanic bastards. No doubt in my mind, this is crunch time... the next 3-5 years.
I've been thinking for a while that for USSA to maintain the petro-dollar reserve status it needs it's military to have at least an aura of invinciblity. Without that it would be tough to keep doing tricks like QE. And without the QE financial tricks it would be tough to pay for the giant military so catch-22.
Since USSA has fucked with just about everybody over there, their list of allies is pretty bad mainly just cutthroat Saudi Arabia and Israel. With the Russians giving Uncle Scam the finger it might embolden others to do the same. That's why I fear 'Murika might fly off the handle over this and really escalate the shooting because it has no choice. They've burned up all their goodwill internationally so only tool they have is a hammer.
I couldn't possibly agree with you more. You nailed it. Sam is in such a pickle. The bankers have led the US down the garden path, using it as it's 'bully branch', and this is more or less what I meant by our government being held to account. 90% of Congress should be charged with treason, given a fair trial and be made to suffer the consequences. If any one of them are found 'not guilty', then the judge should be charged with treason as well since it is already 100% obvious that when any one of them who signs bills, unread, at midnight, they have just committed an act of treason in that irresponsible act alone. I mean it's just incredible how evil the admin. has become. It's time to shake that house apart and bring 'rule of law' back into the forefront where it belongs. And then the oversight agencies like the SEC and the FDA... it's time to tear those demonic agencies to shreds and deal with their leaders accordingly. Those are the people who should probably pay the ultimate penalty first.
It's all going according to plan. Wish I could get a look at the plan ahead of time.
i was laughing so hard i almost missed the green arrow.
the speed - 5 weeks - makes me think this has all been planned out. The installation of See Eye Aye NWO shit like Bush, Clinton, Bush, Obola makes me wonder. All four are See Eye Aye Moles.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XTuuPx0hFYM
All four are related. See video above. The USSA is a joke filled with idiots brainwashed by TV and Zollywood.
they're cia but they're not omnipotent. if they were would 9-11 have so many flaws in it. i mean singed passports for god's sake? out of the fireball and the demolition of the wtc? they didn't find a doorknob.
what conceivable motive could the cia have for making themselves look like idiots and for alienating the radical sunnis they have used as patsies for so long?
Hey, cut us some slack, we have been chemically and nutritionally compromised, after all.
That is only a little sarcastic. Most people I know demand moar poisons for us all!
Okay, but first you fix Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, .... nevermind we don't want it.
Gold bitchez for realz.
So the usa circles Russia and China with most of the 700 bases it operates and Iran in motion with Russia's help to circle Saudi Arabia with its own sphere of operation - pushing ISIS / ISIL / Daesh / Free Syrian Army / Al Nusra et al = Sunni's - to recognize the big prize that SA represents to ALL Sunni
The Princes right now have Mecca ???
"tell vlad when I get re-elected I'll have more time"
America is being destroyed from within.
No, not at all!!!! We earned this. And the truth be known, any truly patriotic and loyal freedom loving American needs to be cheering this on. It is only when the United States of America reverses a century and a half of hegemonic behavior and reigns in the financialization of the nation and consequent fake funding of the MIC that we can cease straining for world empire and return to our real selves and natural right as a beacon of freedom and prosperity to the rest of the world. May that day be nigh!
Was that Obama's plan all along? I doubt it, but he did set up the chessboard for it through his idiocy.
Obama is a selected puppet, and Putin is an elected leader.
Don't be fooled, the same stupid motherfuckers running a "superpower" will be running the third world shit hole filled with an even dumber populace voting to steal half of your soon to be paltry income shoveling the Kings horse shit.
Medvedev told later he had no idea what he was talking about...
Paradigm shifts... They are a bitch ain't they?
This is perhaps the finest example of blowback ever.
Hey, the neocons set up the chessboard, Vlad is only taking advantage of our neocon's foolishness.
I truly hope the Russians, Iran, Hezbollah can bring some peace and prospertity to Syria and Iraq then hopefully Libya.
I also hope Russia, China, Iran and others will join in telling USA Obola-Trayvon-Retard bully Amerika and the Pentagram that "if you start anything anywhere or threaten any countries - we will beat you like the little bitch you are!"
I mean how pathetic is Amerika when white males like little girls cheer on their ball paying Trayvon rapist heroes. Heroes like FSU quarterback rapist Jamies whatever his name is. Trayvon's brother, Amerikan males who cheer that shit and cheer on white genocide are pathetic.
exactly, Grekko. Because they really believe they are always the smartest guys in the room....just watch Summers, for instance. Or Kristol, dumb as a dishrag. But, you know when he comes on TV he's pitching a war. You don't need to have the sound on. For some reason they wheel out Kristol, like he won the top salesman award or something. If you see his smirk, the subject is war. It's fifteen years and $3 Tril. and we have shattered the lives of millions of humans who did nothing to us... "shut up...just, shut TF up." To wage war you have to respect your opponent. But they seem to respect no one.
And, when they are being really profound, they write for the Financial Times. Because the US doesn't really merit a discussion but the weighty ones speak for us in the London financial newspaper of record. To explain the incoherent.
I expect that the "false flag" or trigger to get the US policy " back in the fight" will come from Stanley Fischer at the FED. He is Israeli, and he started this with his financial sanctions on Iran and then when they were such a "success" on Russia too. He moved from Tel Aviv to the FED because it put him more in control of the financial machinery for waging financial sanctions/war. You can't really grow the global real economy when you are collapsing it to make war.
Putin commented this week. "I learned on the streets of St. Petersburg that if a fight was inevitable it was important to strike first." Fischer screwed up, he left no doubt that he was making war on both Iran and Russia in our name, without asking us, and now he's scrambling. The guy with four passports, who is never seen or heard from. He started this.
I'm failing to see the downside to any of this. The US gets bitched at no matter what it does now. It's always wrong in some way or another, so fuck it I guess. Russia, which is MUCH CLOSER than the US is to this mess now gets to stick their dick into this behive and see what comes of it. This is an unending war, if the US and the west pulls out of it and now Russia owns the mess. Russia's economy is rather fucked at the moment and they are in no position to be fighting endless wars.
If there is anyone who has no patience for radical islam its russia. They also dont have much patience for unruly joos. Maybe they''ll have better luck than the US
do some homework and look into who Soleimani is
you are way off base - Patreaus / McCrystal couldnt shine his shoes
In case you've forgotten, client states use the military gear of their sponsors ...
Russia's economy is much less fucked than America's economy. Printing USD with abandon (with and without issuing corresponding debt), and stuffing them into your own banks, hardly qualifies as "economy". By any measure you choose, US is in worse shape than Russia, corruption included...
At this point, probably the best thing US could hope for would be to clean up it's act internally (filling the jails with financial crooks would help), and do nothing as foreign policy, at least for a while. Detoxification is essential for survival...
"The US gets bitched at no matter what it does now."
i don't believe it has been bitched at yet for not bombing or not occupying a country.
Sommers, Kristal, Bibi, Kagan, Dov, etc., they're gonna bitch about no bombing and no occupying. In fact they're bitching now. Ok, at least they were bitching until stunned into silence by the bold turn of events. Seems they forgot to clean-up some assets ahead of the fray.

So where are they ?
this is a virtual street protest.

Many Thanks!!
And to think, we STILL have one more year of the president's "leadership" to endure...
If mindless, western corporate outsourcing hasn't finished us off economically by then...
...our stinking, globalist-meddling game of chess will.

Why can't we have a President that loves America as much as Putin loves Russia?
ask Dubya.
You some sort of commie fag or sumptin', boy?
Because we have all been divided and taught by government paid teachers to hate each other and most of all hate the old individualist concept of a constitutional America.
Close.
Because we have been told and taught that the person we have as president actually makes a difference in the functioning of the role of president.
There fixed it for you whether you believe it or not.
cos you havent lived through and out other side bolshie hell yet
i believe the real answer is because the ones calling the political shots today love israel more.
simple but there.
@Jeff, don't think they love Is "more," I believe they, and Israel, are trying to fulfill biblical prophesy by bringing on Armageddon.
Vaccines and toxins in our food just aren't killing us fast enough, plus a bunch of the world is pushing back against those, so, yeah..
How else to get us down to the "sustainable" population Agenda 21 and the Guidestones speak of?

Hezbollah does not yell Allah Akbar and run around like retard like ISIS.
The Israelis referred to them as ghosts in Lebanon in 2006. Hezbollah would pop up, hit hard and disappear.

On the ground man to man? ISIS does not stand a chance. They were able to hang in there because they were being fed satellite intel. Supposedly, the Russians have jammed it all and shut it off. If ISIS uses satellite phones, they will be found and bombed.
re laomei: allow me to take a stab at 'splaining this: the reason it matters is because you've got a whole pentagon full of neocons whose heads are about to pop off; the urge in that building to intervene, er help, and blow shit up has to be extreme; if i was prezzy purple dank, i'd be maybe a little nervous of the suicide bug if you get it. also, for how long does anyone think israel is going to stand by and let this shit show build? they're playing it cool for now. but so did putin until about 60 days ago . . .

It's not a "foolproof cover story." It's the truth. The US and the House of Saud created, by accident or design, all the gangs of Muslim mass murderers currently terrorizing the planet. You want order restored and something done about Muslim mass murderers in your region, you bring in the Russians.
On to Riyadh, Doha and Dubai. After the House of Saud and Thani are driven from power and liquidated, you won't hear another word about the war on terror. With dirty Saudi oil money removed from the politics of Western nations, maybe something will finally be done to reverse Islamisation in the West.
And there will be peace in Israel for forty years.
You really have to eliminate Bibi first, and his whole neocon cadre. He incites the other side to be stupid, so he can reap the votes of the stupid. Then there will be peace.
I agree with most of your comment, but Israel has never shown any interest in peace. If anything, they want the same kind of peace the US gave to the Native Americans (in this case, the Palestinians).
Bring it on. Once the Sauds are gone, give the Palis a reservation in the Empty Quarter.
When Nauru ran out of guano and then out of money, the Nauruans were no longer above making a living offering storage space for Australia's bogus refugee claimants. When Saudi runs out of oil they'll be a perfect dumping ground for unwanted ragheaded "refugees" from Israel to the ends of the earth.
fuck that. give the israelis the empty quarter.
or better, far, far better, give them a nice chunk of bavaria, maybe including dachau which i believe was the first concentration camp established. maybe they could get something going economically with the syrian refugees there.
unwanted ragheaded refugees indeed. it was their bloody land. they didn't even take a side in world war two. the nazis were the ones who hurt the jews. how is that reason to establish israel? it isn't.
at bare, bare minimum expand israel to its current eretz borders and give every single person inside exactly the same rights and subsidies. and then lets see what the knesset looks like and where bibi lives.
my guess is brentwood.
Jordan? HAHAHA! Will they have their anti-ISIS intelligence center three blocks away from their USA sponsored ISIS training centers, or would that be taboo? What shameless whores those people must be. It's astonishing how quickly the wind can change direction.
[copied over from previous article]
This looks like it's one of the tactics used by US forces in Syria/Iraq to minimise any bombing damage to its ISIS terrorist friends:
from that article at http://www.middleeasteye.net/news/iraq-authorises-russia-strike-islamic-...
" "They [the US-led coalition] refuse to strike private cars, mosques, bridges, schools despite the fact Daesh militants are mainly using these places as headquarters," a senior military officer [...] told MEE."
"The US-led rules, which enforces verification of targets, regularly give IS militants time to save their supplies, equipment and fighters, they said."
I don't see any similar constraint by US forces when it comes to bombing hospitals and wedding parties...
Don't forget ISIS's tanker trucks providing both income to ISIS and a increased oil supply to the market to keep prices down and ruin Russia economically.
Yep, it'll be good if Putin's bombers locate a few ISIS oil convoys and deal with them. That won't please the Turkish middle-men.
I suppose yesterday you noticed the US Syrian dwarfs came out out of the woodwork to tell the western MSM how many hospitals the Russians had bombed.
Apparently unnewsworthy until the US bombed the MSF hospital in Afghanistan.
Its hard to say which is more pathetic: the US military or US propaganda.
you didn't offer it as a choice explicitly, well you did say propaganda, but i would say u.s. mainstream investigative journalism.
haven't figured out 9-11 yet. still working on it though.
They still haven't figured out that fluoride is a neuro toxin, either.
Or that vaccinations are causing illnesses far worse than what they "protect" us from.
Don't hold your breath. We have only seen the tip of the lying propaganda iceberg I'm afraid.
"Iraq allows Russia to strike ISIL" is nowhere but on this Turkish site.
I call BS.
The whole of the Russian media would make this headlines. There is zilch, nada on Sputnik, RT or TASS.
I'll give it a day or two. But it would not be that unusual for ZH to post up stories that support a certain perspective that the west wants put up.
Right now the west actually wants the storyline to be that Russia is taking over all the ME and is thus threatening the US. Of course they also want the story to be that Russia is killing the wrong people and civilians, which has not gained traction.
There's this, but it's an Arab publication and may be using the Turkish source:
.
Iraq and Russia Agree to Hit ISIL Militants Heading from Syria to Iraq
the story you link offers iraqi TV, al-Sumaria as a source. al-sumaria is an iraqi tv channel. but who really knows.
if i was trying to protect the iraqi government i would ask the russians to attack isil, and not just heading from syria but the ones already in iraq as well.
good catch, my reading comprehension needs work.
Professionalism and integrity as I knew it in analysis and policy in the US appears to be dead. God damn, it we were better than this. Reap the whirlwind.
"anyone who’s followed the story knows Dunford’s trip was far too little, far too late."
If he was truly sincere in wanting to get anywhere he should have taken over a few pallet loads of $100 bills as a gift for PM Haider al-Abadias.
You really have to hand it to the idiots (neocons) running DC. They totally blew it with the orchestration and training of ISIS to overthrow Assad, all the while having the MSM demonize ISIS as the bogeyman of the Middle East. Personally, I think the Ruskies are a bit slow on the uptake here. Why they didn't pull this off a year ago is beyond me. Maybe they have more patience than I do.
A second point here. I think its almost time for pitchforks and torches. It's almost time to route out this nest of vipers called the "Shadow Government".
yeah if you can catch Hillary while she is taking a "Victory Lap" over obfuscating the hearings on Benghazi, now she can get back to the business of being elected president.
Thats why they want the guns. Too many people are waking up to the DC crimnal activity.
There's a time for everything.
A year ago Russia had other concerns, its military was a year less well prepared and a year ago, I think that Putin and his government still thought that some form of rapprochement could be made with The West.
Also, to get this far has required a whole heap of palning, negotiating, horse trading and arm twisting.
Think of this as being the 'overnight success' that took a decade to achieve!
You just said Putin and his govt are complete idiots.
Planing? Iraq, Libya, Iraq2, Yemen There was plenty of time to plan, there are other reasons other than those you gave.
true
they might have moved a year ago, but perhaps they wanted the Negro to get more stuck to the Tar Baby.
gating was IRAN - they needed the deal to be aagreed and signed off by USA and EU - then they get their $150B plus go to the wall with Russia
needed troops on the ground - Iraq + Iran
Why didn't Russia act sooner? Ensuring the Ukrainian Nazis were stymied last year was surely a higher priority for them, and they didn't need to. Things only became urgent in Syria once it was clear that Mordor and Turkey were about to invade to establish safe zones for Al-Ciada.
The Russians are slow to saddle their horses, but ride fast
-Otto von Bismarck-
they do have more patience than you do.
they beat the nazis at stalingrad.
they got the u.s. into korea when it was starting to roll back the iron curtain.
they and china and their vietnamese allies outlasted the u.s. in the vietnam war.
they threw off "communism" and went bankrupt in the nineties, assisted by the u.s.
but they came back, built up a first class military, never gave up their nuclear weapons (because you never know) and waited until no one could deny the u.s. had tried long enough to depose assad and knock off isis, failing at both.
it is a work in progress.
they gotta be running out of underwear and toilet paper in tel aviv. they have been shitting in their pants fo almost a month now. lol
Why?
1/ISISraelis are sponsored and their wounded treated in Israeli hospitals. ISIS don't/can't destabilise their backers.
2/ Putin's Grand Chessboard had structural moves a decade ago when the (ex)KGB faction took back the 'motherland' from the Kriminal Kabal oligarchs and Yeltsin bottomfeeders, and kicked out the NGOs and oligarchs who wouldn't commit to stay out of RF politics.
3/ Putin has a deal with the Zionists
4/ Putin just got permission from Iraq to bomb ISIS fleeing Syria to Iraq, in an area where there are apparently Israeli Military and Intel base/s. This would be co-ordinated or advised (see Sibel Eddmonds interview below. Very good analysis of regional plays)

why? because current events are not as israelis wanted them. they wanted assad gone, syria in chaos and iraq and iran ditto. such is much less likely to be.
putin talks love of jews and israel.
obama talked real reform. liked whistleblowers. wouldn't start any dumb wars.
watch what they do, not what they say.
Plus, he's putting up a ton of links and at least some of them, ie. The 2 part Russian Jewish oligarch documentary do not support his contentions.
i read another story that said the talks between usa and russia came up with an agreement to give syria to russia but iraq was for the usa. we'll see what happens.
Putin has clearly stated that Russia neither wants nor needs more territory - not even the Ukraine and not even Crimea, until the naval base was threatened by the Junta in Kiev.
Russia may have to incorporate the Donbass, but the fact is that until the US orchestrated coup d'etat, Russia was conent with the status quo.
Russia is not expansionist.
i have to agree with you. russia is only being agressive where it has clear interests being threatened. new russia looks like an inevitability just as russia in syria.
this could be spun into a new, more peaceful multipolar world if the usa takes the opportunity. the zionazi grip is beginning to loosen.
The only things in Washington, D.C. are dumb-fucks and ass-kissers of dumb fucks and both these pathetic groups fall under the umbrella of unprosecuted criminals...
and through it all more refugees flow into Europe, (though curiously not Russia, their new patron state?) and those refugees need NG from Gazprom to keep them warm
divine retribution for the lickspittle nations of the EU who supported the plan of the Mad Negro.
well it wasn't really his plan. but he supported it.
http://stateofthenation2012.com/?p=23524
my bad.
By plan, I meant provoking the Syrian rebellion back in 2011.
Between you and me, I kinda hope that Putin is the present-day Pied Piper of the Peloponnese.

Let me know when Middle East Oil is only priced in the Ruble
The US is way over due for a spring uprising. When the fuck are you guys going to take your country back!
When are you going to throw these criminals in jail for treason? You do know these ass clowns are pretending to act in your best interest right?
GET OFF THE FUCKING COUCH ALREADY
You're right of course but you don't understand how truly brain dead of a society america is. The "everything is awesome" crowd is so much in control it's nearly impossible to get something going. It's really pathetic and honestly most americans deserve to have their asses kicked, starved out or even nuked. People who care so little for the truth about their government deserve nothing more
their attention will be gotten when the cell phone and the cable tv have to be sacrificed for food, water and electricity.
There is one key element missing for American Spring to happen:

Time will tell whether there is anything to this.
Jordan has no choice but to join the Syrian/Russian/Iraq/Iran coalition. ISIS supply lines to and from Turkey will be cut. While the coalition nulifies US backed Anti-Assad "moderate opposition", ISIS will be pushed southeast into eastern Jordan and Saudi Arabia. Jordan can't protect itself from US backed ISIS and sees Russia as its only savior.
Saudi Arabia will have no choice soon but to join the coalition as well.
Get ready to price oil in Rubles or gold as the US is completely forced out of the entire middle east.
I will differ with you on that one. The Saudis will never join Russia and Iran - that would be a union between Sunnis and Shiites. It is not going to happen. This new power struggle pits Sunni nations directly against the Shiites. It will be big and it will be bloody.
I agree that the Saudis will never ally with Iran, but we should clarify that the conflict you are describing is not Sunni vs Shia. but Wahhabi cultists versus mainstream Sunni and Shia. The Syrian army is 60% Sunni, and the Jordanian Hashemites are traditional Sunnis descended from Prophet Muhammad who were expelled from Mecca by the Saudis. Egypt is also traditional Sunni and will likely move toward Russia and abandon the Saudis.
Yes, the sectarian civil war nonsense was created to hide and counter the guerrilla war in Iraq. Iraq never had a civil war before, and there hadn't been a 'sectarian civil war' anywhere. That the heavily intermarried anti-occupation Arabs needed to be fragmented into ghettos (just like the Palestinians naturally), but the pro-occupation Kurds didn't should have made things obvious to everyone.
