In New Video, A Grateful Al-Qaeda Thanks US For Supplying Anti-Tank Missiles
On September 30, just hours after a three star Russian general strolled into the US embassy in Baghdad and told the staff to inform Washington that Moscow would begin airstrikes in Syria “in one hour”, the Western media was alive with accusations that The Kremlin wasn’t targeting ISIS, but rather other, US and Saudi-backed rebel groups fighting Assad’s depleted SAA. Here’s what WSJ said at the time:
“Among seven areas that Syrian state media listed as targets of Russian strikes, only one—an area east of the town of Salamiyah in Hama province—has a known presence of Islamic State fighters. The other areas listed are largely dominated by moderate rebel factions or Islamist groups, such as Ahrar al-Sham and the al Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front.”
Yes, “moderate rebel factions such as the al-Qaeda-affiliated Nusra Front.”
Put simply, the US had become so desperate to preserve whatever was left of the strategy to overthrow Assad, that Washington had the mainstream media floating trial balloons to see if the public would accept the characterization of al-Qaeda as “moderate.”
Generally speaking, most Americans didn’t notice, presumably because they were too busy ogling at Russian fighter jets and/or Islamic State’s latest Hollywood special (which at the time was a clip of an SAA fighter being run over by a tank), but for anyone who did pick up on the fact that the mainstream US media had just officially (and posthumously) labeled Osama Bin Laden a “moderate”, the farce was complete.
To anyone who frequents these pages - and to anyone who has endeavored to question the official narrative - the fact that the US now counts al-Nusra as a de facto ally came as no surprise. The Saudis and Qatar have backed al-Nusra virtually from the beginning, and the US is all for anything that destabilizes Assad, even if it means funneling guns and money to the very same group that flew passenger jets into skyscrapers on American soil. And let’s not forget that this wouldn’t be the first time Washington has backed al-Qaeda. The US has had lots of practice in getting arms to the Mujahideen - see the Soviet-Afghan war, for example.
None of this is a secret, which is what makes it so astonishing that the Western public is largely clueless despite the efforts of people like Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard and Georgia Republican Austin Scott.
Of course Washington isn’t as vocal in its support of al-Nusra as it is in its enthusiasm for the “moderate” opposition group of choice, the Free Syrian Army. As we’ve documented extensively, the FSA has received anti-tank weapons from The Pentagon over the past two months so that they may counter the advance on Aleppo by Hezbollah and the IRGC. Given that the very same Iran-backed Shiite militias the FSA is fighting in Syria are also fighting ISIS in Iraq, the fact that the US is supplying the FSA with weapons to kill them is nothing short of ridiculous. Here’s how we described the situation last month:
The US is now supplying anti-tank weapons and other munitions to the rebels fighting in Aleppo and those weapons are being used to kill these very same Shiite militiamen who are driving US tanks, fighting alongside the Iraqi army, and indirectly receiving US assistance just across the border in Iraq.
So thanks to Washington's twisted foreign policy, they are friends on one side of the Syria-Iraq border and mortal enemies on the other.

Well now, in what can only be described as an embarrassment of truly epic proportions, al-Qaeda has released a video thanking the FSA for supplying al-Nusra with American-made TOWs. Here’s Sputnik:
The Al-Nusra Front, Al-Qaeda's affiliate in Syria, has released a grateful video, where they openly thank the Free Syrian Army (FSA), which the US has touted as a “moderate opposition group”, for supplying them with US-made anti-tank TOW missiles (“Tube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided").
A recently released video shows an Al-Nusra Front field commander thanking the FSA commanders for giving his forces TOW missiles, according to a report released by the Iranian news agency FARS.
The agency reminds readers that the two groups, the Al-Nusra and the FSA, formed an alliance in March, the Army of Conquest, or Jaish al-Fatah in Arabic, to fight against the forces of President Assad.
Since then, they have fought together “at almost every single battle in Aleppo, Lattakia, Hama, and Idlib Governorates of Syria.”
Through this alliance several militant groups like the Al-Nusra Front and the Ahrar al-Sham movement have been given access to FSA's US-made heavy weaponry, which has been supplied to the militant group by the US, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
According to the agency’s estimates, Saudi Arabia sent 500 TOW missiles to Al-Nusra directly last month.
Obviously, this is the very definition of absurdity. It would be bad enough if the US were supplying TOWs to anyone in Syria. But this is Washington and Riyadh handing anti-tank missiles to forces that are firing them at the Iranians who are operating under cover of Russian airstrikes. Just to drive that home: the US is waging war against Iran and Russia with but one degree of separation.
That's the big picture.
But as mentioned above, this is also ridiculous because The Pentagon is killing the same people in Syria that the US-trained Iraqi army depends on to rout ISIS across the border in Iraq. And when we say "the same people", we mean the exact same Shiite militias. Every Iran-backed militiaman that's killed in Syria by a US-made weapon is one less militiaman that will return to Iraq to fight ISIS, which is of course fine with Saudi Arabia and Qatar because they're opposed to Iranian influence in Baghdad in the first place.
Finally, the idea that the US is fighting al-Nusra in Syria is not only untrue, it's actually the complete opposite of what's really going on on the ground.
Hopefully no one from al-Qaeda ends up firing a TOW at a Paris cafe.

Change the record or something. Such nonsense already so much has gotten into your head that's not working.
Easy to fix:
.
"The Saudis and Qatar have backed al-Nusra virtually from the beginning, and the US is all for anything that destabilizes Assad, even if it means funneling guns and money to the very same group that flew passenger jets into skyscrapers on American soil."
->
"The Saudis and Qatar have backed al-Nusra virtually from the beginning, and the US is all for anything that destabilizes Assad, even if it means funneling guns and money to the very same group blamed for flying passenger jets into skyscrapers on American soil."
If the dozens of false flags that have been perpetrated by the alphabet agencies of the US government (for which a mountain of evidence exists if one chooses to look for it) don't wake up the American sheeple, nothing will. .Gov should feel confident that it can get away with anything now and stop pretending to care. Nobody is paying attention anyway.
Actually a false flag double-win. Learned-helplessness psyop victory occurs when the thinking demographic of the population knows that nothing within the system, as offered to them, can stop the brazen actions of openly bad agents and institutions.
Rather than an antiwar movement, we need an anti lying cheating stealing government movement. Their constant manipulations and corruption in the name of national security has created a theme for many that is primarily anti war, anti defense...primarily anti military. Their corrupt policies are doing to us internationally what they have also been doing nationally.....destabilizing to create violence as a cause to disarm us. Violence in America is not blamed upon the criminal perpetrating it, but on the guns the we personally own to defend ourselves from it. Guns, not criminals, are the cause of our problems. In this same way they are manipulating politics, using the military in a corrupt fashion to perpetrate evil and chaos around the world, and at the same time reducing our military size and capability in a time of unprecedented turbulence, as though it is the military's fault, and not the president, the state department and the myriad of apparatchiks facilitating this madness. The military doesn't kill people, their commander in chief kills people....the ultimate trigger man.
Well now, in what can only be described as an embarrassment of truly epic proportions, al-Qaeda has released a video thanking the FSA for supplying al-Nusra with American-made TOWs.
It's not really about who's getting killed with what weapons - it's all about the WEAPONS! Watch those weapons get used up. Watch weapons depots become empty. Watch the pockets of the MIC douchebags get filled up via gubmint contracts to build MOAR weapons.
The extreme amount of ordinance used in the first gulf war wasn't about necessity, it was about depleting stockpiles - they were dropping bombs to get rid of them so they could buy moar newer bombs. I can't imagine that the policy of "use it up to force them to order more" would have changed ... as it has been very effective ...
The boys I know in the MIC are all getting bonuses .... aren't you?
I couldn't tell from the photos which guy was John McCain because of the masks.
Golly, do you need chlorine for those?
He's the one with frankenstein body posture that is pointing the TOW at the deck of a US aircraft carrier.
Look for the soldier in depends
This picture discern McCain from the crowd can help you.

Cant wait to drop these fun facts on the family at the Thanksgiving dinner table this year.
There is swimming pools full of Christian blood on John McCain's hands.
The only reason I can see for the continued use of masks is to hide the true identity of US, Israeli and NATO special forces (and ex special forces in the mercenary army) who are pretending to be part of ISIS and moderate Islamic militias.
You wouldn't want mom and dad to see their kids fighting on the side of the evil ISIS now would you?
It's no more likely that a US-made TOW will be used on a "Paris cafe", than the US-supplied AR-15s were used in EU attacks.
They use US-made arms against Assad and Iraqi Shiia forces, and Russian arms when fighting abroad. It's a matter of optics, PR and subliminal messaging by the MIC and State Dept.
Ahh, the TOW Dragon missile system. Raytheon must have needed some extra revenue. It's a wire guided system. It's a good thing that the government is trying to disarm the American citizens while it's giving armed dangerous nasty people crates of TOW dragons. Somebody could get hurt.
Put this ass on thatTube-launched, Optically tracked, Wire-guided thingy:
http://www.ticketingboxoffice.com/images/Kim-Kardashian-Thong-Bikini-Pic...(2).jpg
The TOW would bounce off, even allowing for the locally enhanced gravittional field.
Application for terrorists to - be given by the US taxpayer - our very best advanced small and heavy weapons - APPROVED
Application for a responsible and esteemed US citizen to purchase a 10/22 squirrel rifle - with their own money - DENIED
This is the bizarro world that we find ourselves in now when the majority of politicians think like this. In their eyes it makes perfect sense to arm terrorists and then enact legislation to disarm the American people the minute they think they can get away with it! I keep shaking my head hoping these people and their line of thinking isn't real.
Actually, that may be EXACTLY what needs to happen...some "moderate" terrorist using USA weapons like a TOW to attempt a "terrorist" attack on France, Belgium, Germany, UK etc.
I'd pray they miss their intended innocent targets, but I supposse I would reconsider if they were attacking those contries' complicit governmet offiicals.
The point beign that the absurdity of what we are doing needs to be exposed through something the sleepwalking American people and MSM media might slightly consider untenable.
Appears radial Muslims killing innocent Muslims doesn't register.
Pete
I mean hey, please don't mention al-Qaeda in Syria: that just does not fit into David Cameron's oh so prudent narrative about the need to bomb ISIS. You know, once ISIS are gone, al-Qaeda are just going to go off and vanish into the ether, aren't they ...... aren't they?
I can't get a pellet rifle shipped to Illinois, but these assholes can use "our" money to ship military hardware to even bigger assholes in the desert, so some fucking joos can continue to tell the world how victimized they are.
Kremlin, I'm here to tell you it's ok to nuke Israel. No-one will say shit. Well, that's not true, the world will FLOOD your mail system with thank-you letters.
Two down-votes.
Come forward. Are you joos, Al-Kinda, or State Dept?
Who wants special Zero Hedge Edition - Frances Sawyer t-shirts and posters?
That way you don't have to come to the Hedge to be reminded how much I fucking hate you fucking hate-mongers!

Um... I think we have a wee little problem with logic here...
"to be reminded how much I fucking hate you fucking hate-mongers!"
I thought it pretty brilliant.
My personal version of anti-Semitic.
If you point the finger at me, you are a hate-monger.
I am justified in hating you, but you are a monster for hating me.
Netanyahoo and Putin get along fine. I don't understand it, but then I don't understand any of this.
Is Ras Tanura terminal within reach of Kalibr-NK missiles?
War crimes. Death to the treasonists.
So sending advanced weapons to the same cave dwellers that brought down the twin towers? Nice...
So is a TOW missile "material support" to a terrorist organization? Because I heard that's illegal.
Brookings Institute on Russia's strategy in Syria and on the cost of these TOW missiles;
"One key reason for the minimal territorial shifts so far is the use of American BGM-71 TOW anti-tank guided missiles by CIA-backed Free Syrian Army rebels. The missiles, which first appeared in rebel hands in April 2014, have been used far more (a nearly 850% rise) since the Russian intervention: there were 82 recorded uses from October 1 to 20, compared to only 13 in all of September. With each missile valued at least $50,000, that equates to over $4.1 million of expenditure in three weeks."
Good to see our taxpayer dollars working hard for . . . tyranny and mayhem . . . while manned by savage ragheads whose #2 target is . . . us.
The suppliers didn't even bother to remove the serial number of this one. It looks like a 1990's model. The serial should allow the flow of this one to be followed, at least partially.

Am i the only person who is totally confused as wtf is going on EVERYWHERE Total worlwide insanity prevails uugh
I have it on good authority everything is just fine.
No things are not *fine*... they are fucking *AWESOME*, for ever and ever...
Yes. Seems so.
What the fuck is this shit?
The headlines read.
"In New Video, A Grateful Al-Qaeda Thanks US For Supplying Anti-Tank Missiles"
But the article goes on to say Al Nusra.
Al Nusra is NOT Al Qaeda! So therefore, the headline is a bold faced lie!
Why these complete distortions to paint a picture that Assad and the Russians are the good guys?
I think there is a big change a coming...
Jabhat al-Nusra is the Syrian branch of al-Qaeda.
Assad and Russia are the good guys.
Al-Nursra is Al-Qaeda in Syria.
"Perhaps it is a universal truth that the loss of liberty at home is to be charged against provisions against danger, real or pretended from abroad." - James Madison
No. Thats bullshit. Al Qaeda in Syria is Al Qaeda in Syria.
James Madison, had he witnessed the atrocities of Asswad, Al Qaeda and of course ISIS, would not confuse the difference between "real or pretend". I'd hazard to guess he'd be trying to mobilize with force -- armies to fight those idiots -- and with extreme prejuidice...

Dayum, I WANT ONE OF THOSE!!! Looks like that sucker could open up an MRAP like a tin can.
Sorry, none avvailable. They're too busy opening Asswads BMPs like a hot knife through butter.
BTW. Times running out for the doomed Asswad.

At current attrition rates the SAA has between 2-4 years worth of armored forces left and here's why.
As the most tank-heavy military in the Middle East, by a heavy percentage, the SAA entered the Syrian Civil War with a tremendous amount of armor.
In four years of war, most notably the last three, the number of main battle tanks has shrunk by nearly half with conflict blogger Oryx claiming that of 2,500 MBTs,roughly 1,500 remain as of November 2014 and of the estimated 1,000 BMP-1s in service, Oryx claims that 350 have been destroyed and approximately 175 captured by the opposition, as of January 2015. With over half of the BMP fleet, a mainstay of SAA battle doctrine, destroyed or captured, and approaching half of all MBTs destroyed or captured, how much longer can the SAA sustain these losses before the armored strength of the SAA is depleted and more tanks and armored vehicles exist in opposition hands than the government? My rough estimate: 2 years.
"Vlad's Armored Emporium, how may I direct your call?"
Ha! Good point actually.
But, come to think of it, since Asswad and Syria have NO economy, that means Russian taxpayers will pay for any new Russian toys given to Asswad. I'm sure that makes thyem happy...
Have you SEEN pictures of Rusians?
It's like -10 on a warm day.
What made you think they were happy to begin with?
Most of the tank kill video's I've seen had no infantry support. It's alarming actually. They just roll up in tanks, no infantry support, presumably no air or arty support, thinking they own the fucking field of battle. And then, when their T-72 gets uncorked, the idiots that somehow manage to survive flail around like a bunch of tards at a mosh pit. And of course...aloha snackbars for everybody.
That seems to be changing fast as they get better advice plus, perhaps more importantly, better directed artillery and helicopter gunship support.
A TOW launcher is not the easiest thing to haul around, especially if you are running for your life.
"Ah sir, so you need new better protected tanks. No problem, we have the capacity to deliver 100 a week on the Syrian Express ferry service.
I expect you have seen some of the nice new T-72Bs that are now in action with your colleagues?
I have the paperwork here, shall I put you down for a round 10? The invoice will be in the post later."
Incidentally there are six large landing craft (capacity 10 tanks or other stuff), other military cargo ships plus 8 civilian ships, including at least 1 large RO-RO ferry, that the Russians bought cheap over the past few months, now operating the sea link from Russia to Syria through the Bosporus. In addition to military supplies they also carry thousands of tons of grain and other food. This is wide band Russian support for Syria.
and then the terrorist asswipes who have been killing everyone and depopulating the country that you have been strangely rooting for can take over, surely in free and fair "democratic elections" LOL, thus giving you your much needed murder jollies.
I guess Libya was a good example to follow.
I was talking to a military history major and he just thought I was nutz for suggesting that US policy and its direct support of FSA was in fact support of Al Qaeda and IS. I think it is impossible to discuss the alternative narrative to the MSM or for that matter facts with people who just find those facts too disturbing to believe.
same here...when you confront someone and ask them you created and funds isis they just clam up and leave. weird response as they are paying for this shit with their tax dollars. we have reached a peak in our current societies and i think people are just becoming brain dead.....
It takes a special kind of moron to take the official pronouncements of DC and the mass media at face value and America 2015 is chock full of these special morons.
Might I just remind you of this.
Putin is worth between ~2-200 BILLION DOLLARS.
Putin has no functional business experience.
Putin was a lowely major in the FSB.
Putins official title in FSB was "Disinformation Officer".
So, add all that up, now tell us all how the good people of Russia are hearing "facts" as they play out.
The good people of Russia are not "special kinds of morons" -- but they are sure getting played as if they were... And when they get their senses about being constatntly lied to and mislead about damned near everything -- as they're hungry -- as their economy goes further down the toilet -- and just what do you think is going to happen?
It ain't gonna be pretty for Mr. Putin...
terrorist humping moron.
Should we let stateless headchoppers and thugs run rampant everywhere then, as long as it has the Magic Negro seal of Approval?
alphahomo rooting for Obama's terrorists, perhaps you want some of what they give to their pet goats
That's the Russians' problem. I'm talking about the majority American morons that are too lazy or stupid to open a history book and apply what they learn to the present day.
Yea and I just helped open the Cliffs Notes history book for others to see regarding Putin.

Disinformation: Former Spy Chief Reveals Secret Strategies for Undermining Freedom, Attacking Religion, and Promoting Terrorism
The highest-ranking Soviet bloc intelligence official ever to defect to the West, Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa is at it again.
How the Soviet bloc planted 4,000 agents of influence in the Islamic world, armed with hundreds of thousands of copies of the most infamous anti-Semitic book in history, to fan the flames of ancient Arab resentments against the U.S. and Israel and sow the seeds of anti-Semitism that would later bloom in the form of violence and terror toward Jews and Christians.

I do not think you know what that word means.
Oh but I do!
As you'e been shown to be wrong about all of your other claims, it's little surprise that you can't even define anti-semitism without fucking it up.
You sick in the head in real. That book only gets correct the first word in its title because it is pure disinformation. Publisher a source of much crackpottery.
Clearly you a bot on the payroll.
You know that how? Did George Stephanopoulos tell you alphahummer?
Ok tell me I'm wrong. Your move.
You moron! Putin's present approval rating 89.9%, Obama 45.3%. Dig a bit deeper and get the approval rating of the US Congress and it's 16%. Who is it that really is despised and not trusted by their own public you brain-dead cretin?!
Yup, you are wrong.
Given that the easiest thing to check is probably Putin's KGB rank, which was Lt Col, and not Major, so you got that wrong.
If you can' get the easy things correct, what's the rest of your 'facts' worth?
Umm try again son. BTW. He lied about his rank which means he was good at his job of being a disinformation officer.

Oleg Kalukin ex KGB/FSB General Officer. 32 years service.
Ex-KGB Agent Kalugin: Putin Was 'Only A Major'.
Vladimir Putin is merely posing as a lieutenant colonel.
These are some of the claims made by Oleg Kalugin, a former high-ranking KGB officer and fierce critic of Putin in an interview with RFE/RL.
According to Kalugin, Putin was "just a major" in the KGB, which he resigned from in 1991. "He could have become a lieutenant colonel a year later but he didn't,"
RFE/RL? Just call them what they are in fact paid liars and whores Russophobic.
Your facts are completely wrong and baseless. Putin is a billionaire tyrant such drivel is peddled by your msm which you idiots shove it down your arse.
And he never served as General. lol. Trolls and their delusions.
General? Um ok... I never said that. Putin tells the world he was a Lt.Col in the FSB but in fact, he was only a major. There's the disinformation officer at work...
Of course nothing. You claim some bullshit, who does not survive the collision with reality.
OMG
Is that really worse than your official titles at ZH, betamax?
The top 2 pictures are TOWs. The bottom picture is not a TOW. Sorta looks like a Russian Kornet. Anybody know better what it is. Not a Javelin either.
Yea that looks like the Iranian knock off of the Russian missile called the Dehlaviyeh.

If by "help" you mean protect the .gov from the citizenry that they have been fleecing, lying to and abusing for the last mother-fucking-time, because the police and military willingly stepped aside, then ya.
'Generally speaking, most Americans didn’t notice, presumably because they were too busy ogling at Russian fighter jets...'
i love authors that attack their own readers. what bullshit. why would i believe anything out of the government. how does anyone tell what group is what with their names changing every day..........
"Just to drive that home: the US is waging war against Iran and Russia with but one degree of separation."
Clarification:
The 'U.S.' is a donkey, whose foreign policy is being directed and ridden in the service of another nation who so happens to have an outsized presence in the halls of lobbying Congress and U.S. foreign policy directives.
'There, fixed it for ya'...

So does that mean that Al Qaeda will now come out with a video thanking Putin for the Russian missile system being ussed against Assad?
Lol...
No, but they might come out with one of you standing behind your sheep, trying to get it up.

As far as I've seen , Russian anti-tank weapons ( kornet and metis both ) were not being used by US lads. Yes they are being but in Yemen by Houthi Rebels .
The bigger question is, where can I get one...
I know, right... how bad-ass would that be...
Maybe the FBI can arrange something if you're a Mexican national...Gun show loophole and all that.
Just like Kennedy's death,911,now this supporting of terrorists groups to overthrow foreign governments.The CIA is behind it all and guilty.Smileballs.
... and we're also firmly on both sides of the Kurds.
AmeriKa says, we'll fight ISIS, but continues to arm them. We'll kill them (for reals) but not to help Assad or the Syrian Army. We'll help Russia bomb ISIS but only if they stop bombing "moderate terrorists". And the cunt at the head of the Office of Terrorism and Finance doesn't quite know how to follow the money to cut off ISIS finanicing the way they did with Al-Qaeda after 9/11. Suuuuure ya can't, Shlomo.
Can you imagine being a friend of AmeriKa? A complete and utter schizophrenic psychopath at war with the world and itself, govt. agencies pulling in all directions and accomplishing nothing but evil.

The alphaspammer troll does represent that stunted mentality.
We armed some folks to blow the shit out of some other folks.
Meanwhile they are prosecuting kids for going to syria to fight against assad. They are also prosecting kids for going to syria to fight for assad.
The government on the other hand is fighting on every side. I pity school kids of the future asked to answer the question on reasons and run up to ww3. ww1 was bad enough.'Course , by then the winner will have written a new history.
There was a time when young people who went to fight abroad were celebrated. "Check this out". Headstone located in Fulham, London.

Bin Laden the moederate now. I wonder what the families of the3000 he "killed" think of our Peace Prize winner now
Bin Laden killed 3000 people...Yeah right. Was that before or after he died from kidney failure?
If Bin Laden death was fake or not, doesn't change the fact that the people arming terrorists are terrorists themselves.
Obama Regime is a terrorist organization.

Yes, we know you dependent on the State Department manual.
Thanks Doc.
"HAND" :-)
Thus the air quote around killed
Yeah, I wasn't suggesting you thought anything different.
After.
Since Bin Laden did not have anything to do with 9/11; your premise is false to start with. Al-Queda is Al-CIAda and always has been. Very disappointed in the 11 ZH'ers who missed that fact.
For the record I know 9/11 was a false flag. I thought the snarc would be implied with my quotes around "killed"
Regardless, we are now overtly supporting Al Qaeda. For that Obama should be impeached and tried for treason
Military strategy isnt my strong suit. How can Putin neutralie the TOWS bc while the air capaign has been brlliant Assad has not been able to move very far in recaptuing ground territory
Arent they gaining ground in some areas but losing ground in others?

This week, Iran sent into battle outside its borders 2,000 of its best-trained, loyal and well-equipped combat troops, detached from six elite Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC) units.The battle at Al-Safira, fought with Russian air cover alongside Hizballah and Syrian army forces, was supposed to be the turning point in the Syrian civil war. Its objective was to break through Islamic State and Nusra Front defense lines around Al-Safira, and knock over the positions the Islamists had erected for blocking the roads from Aleppo and central Syria to Damascus, among them Route 5, the main highway. After that, they planned to advance on Aleppo.
Their offensive had the opposite result.
Fighters from ISIS and the Nusra Front stopped the Iranian and Syrian troops in their tracks and forced them to abandon the sections they held along the main transportation routes leading to Aleppo. So not only did the Iranian-led army fail to clear the way to this key city, but they were driven back by ISIS fighters, who took control of the 20-kilometer route from Al-Safira to Aleppo. The day ended with the jihadis in position to tighten the siege on both cities.
On Thursday, Oct. 29, ISIS followed up on its victory by seizing control of the eastern neighborhoods of Al-Safira and advancing towards the center of the city.
The losses sustained by the IRGC, which spearheaded the ground attack, were heavy, mostly in the fighting in the rural area south of Aleppo.
How could this happen to Tehran’s supposedly formidable forces?
Iran’s death toll in the battle for Aleppo may never be known, but the numbers of officers and enlisted men who died was so high and the shock effect so extreme that IRGC Deputy Commander, Gen. Hossein Salami had to call a live news conference on Iran’s state-run television Wednesday, Oct. 28, to explain why his country came to be involved in the Syrian war.
He depicted Syria as “the front line in the battle against Western forces, particularly the US… which is seeking to implement a destructive plan in the Arab world.” He then argued: “Had Iran not intervened, the chaos would have spread into Lebanon, Iraq and elsewhere.”
But DEBKAfile’s military sources point out that this explanation offered no answer to the main question troubling Iran’s leaders and the IRGC command: On what grounds can they continue to boast that Iran’s army is capable of destroying the US military within 10 days, and the IDF in one day, when Iran’s special forces, armored corps, urban warfare units and airborne brigades, backed by the Russian air force, not only failed to rout ISIS forces, but were humiliated into retreating from their strategic positions amid heavy losses?
Of crap thou art full, Zinu
In my calendar, the 10th of November comes later than the 28th of October.

Did you have a reason to forget this story 2 weeks ago, Dicky-bird?
There since the first paragraph of bullshit is fierce.
A lie bullshit and a provocation. Buy a fork for copypasta.
DEBKAfile - a known Israeli Mossad propagandist site; like CNN for CIA.
"when Iran’s special forces, armored corps, urban warfare units and airborne brigades, backed by the Russian air force, not only failed to rout ISIS forces, but were humiliated into retreating from their strategic positions amid heavy losses? - despite the BS here; the NATO/IDF has done what in 4 years? That's right murdered ordinary men, women and children and created a refugee crisis the world has not seen since WWII. Great work!! (Sarc)
We are all Stopfake I had a longer post planned for today, but today, and the night before, proved to be pretty hectic. How hectic? I got hit by a goddamned Porsche SUV less than a block from my home. Nothing serious, but I couldn’t help but notice how the driver sped away immediately after I was clear of her hood.
Fortune smiled upon me, however, when I ran across a hilariously bad viral Facebook meme:
https://nobsrussia.files.wordpress.com/2015/11/9gag.jpg?w=625
Like, Wow! Man! The government’s all like: “We’ve got to kill ISIS,” but like…actually, they’re like…selling them weapons so they can make like money, and get…uh…like…OIL! Yeah, like that Iraq War, when we used to fight the Soviets with Saddam but then like, we paid Bin Laden to be our enemy, and then he did 9/11! But like…I read this one web site that said Bush did 9/11 so, like….yeah.
Alright, seriously now. How idiotic is this picture? Well first off, of all the many photos of ISIS with US weapons they could have chosen, photos which show ISIS fighters posing with everything from M16A2 rifles to American-made humvees, they chose a photo of a possible ISIS fighter holding a Soviet-made AT-3 “Sagger” (Russian name: Malyutka) anti-tank missile, or one of its international variants. Yes, that’s how badly this person fucked it up.
And what about the US weapons in ISIS’ possession? I can’t speak as to whether the 75% figure is even remotely accurate, but in any case I know how they got them, and it wasn’t because the US sold arms to ISIS. If the dipshit who came up with this had a memory spanning more than two years, he would have recalled that ISIS kicked the crap out of the Iraqi army and captured vast quantities of vehicles and arms from them. This bounty included tons of American equipment that had been in Iraqi service.
Here’s an article from this year detailing the American booty ISIS got in Iraq. Oh what’s that? You don’t trust “the government? You “question more?” Fine. Here’s RT telling you the same thing so you can stop questioning. Case closed, indefatigable seekers of truth!
You know, long before Russian propaganda and viral memes we had the notorious chain emails. I used to hate these idiotic stories that are perpetually rehashed and forwarded by conservative aunts, uncles, and grandmothers all over the US. The chain email brought us things like Marine Todd, and the rough and tough female Marine who tells off a French soldierin a mysterious alternative universe where Camp Bondsteel is in Bosnia instead of Kosovo. In those days our “Stopfake” was Snopes.com. It’s still a useful site today.
But nowadays, the stupid isn’t just lurking in your inbox. It’s all over your newsfeed. This is the double edged sword of the information age. We have more access to more information than ever before, but we also have just as much access to even more bullshit than before. Sites like Snopes and Stopfake.org can’t do the heavy lifting for us critical thinkers. The responsibility is on all of us to call out bullshit wherever we see it.
To arms!
UPDATE: Here’s a useful article for debunking some of the most popular ISIS bullshit.
UPDATE II: Here are a couple more links for debunking ISIS myths. LINK 1, LINK 2.
This post from Zinu is not written by our Latvian potato troll.
People have writing styles and this is absolutely not in his style. Apart from that, it isn't loaded with anti-Putin slogans.
Zinu retarded and capable only to copypaste his assignments from State Department manual.
But it gets better!
SYRIA BUYING OIL FROM ISIS. Now, whats so perverse about this is the fact that Syria has NO economy to buy anything -- much less oil. So who is paying for this oil purchased from ISIS?
Umm that would be Russia. Russia is propping up the Assad regime economically. This means Russian taxpayer money is flowing to Assad and then Assad uses it to buy oil from ISIS to keep the Assad war machine running.
BRILLIANT NO? The Russian people must be so pleased!
-----
ISIS is selling oil to Syria, the very country the militant group is trying to take over.
The Syrian government, ruled by the brutal dictator Bashar al-Assad, is currently engaged in a civil war with various rebel groups, as well as a war against ISIS, which is trying to establish a caliphate in the region.
Syria needs oil to fight these wars, and since ISIS controls a significant amount of the oil production infrastructure in the country, they are forced to buy oil from ISIS.
In addition to selling to Syria, ISIS also sells oil to black market traders in the region, who sell the oil to rebel groups or people living in areas that ISIS controls.
The guy is a typical "theorist", who never saw real world
Yea maybe, but I would reathr be a supposed "theorist" than a real world conspiracy addled individual distrutful of everything in the world -- except for the things you have no business trusting...
Judging by your posts, you are a stupid person and with inflated egos. That's why a little dim.
I guess if you keep repeating the words "brutal dictator Bashar al-Assad" even you will start to believe your own lies! Either way, I'll sum you up with one word.... LIAR!
"However, despite the repeated claims by sectarian Islamists and their western backers, there is no convincing evidence that the Syrian Army has deliberately bombed and gassed civilians. Nor would there be a motive for it. Nor does the behaviour of people on the streets support it. Most Syrians do not blame their army for the horrendous violence of this war, but rather the foreign backed terrorists.
These are the same terrorists backed by the governments of the USA, Britain and France, hiding behind the fig-leaf of the mythical ‘moderate rebel’ while reciting their catalogue of fabricated accusations.
The high participation rate (73%) in June’s presidential elections, despite the war, was at least as significant as the strong vote (88%) Bashar received. Even the BBC could not hide the large crowds that came out to vote, especially those that mobbed the Syrian Embassy in Beirut.
Participation rates are nowhere as near in the US; indeed no western leader can claim such a strong democratic mandate as this ‘dictator’. The size of Bashar’s win underlines a stark reality: there never was a popular uprising against this man; and his popularity has grown."
Tim Anderson is a Senior Lecturer in Political Economy at the University of Sydney. He has researched the Syrian conflict since 2011 and visited Syria in December 2013.
"I guess if you keep repeating the words "brutal dictator Bashar al-Assad" even you will start to believe your own lies! "
One word answer.
Has/does Assad drop barrel bombs from aircraft on civilian towns and cities.
YES or NO. One word answer.
From incestuous relationships are born cretins like you.
no.
the barrel bomb myth has been debunked many, many times since the phrase starting being tossed around years ago.
Yea but its only been "debunked" in Russia. In the rest of the entire world -- we know the truth.
The truth is Assad drops barrel bombs on unsuspecting civilians and creates mass cassualties.
So therefore, the title sticks.
