Caught On Tape: Russia Destroys ISIS Oil Transport Cars, Al-Qaeda Training Camp
From a reputational perspective, this was a decisively bad week for Turkey. In the immediate aftermath of Ankara’s brazen move to shoot down a Russian Su-24 near the Syrian border, Vladimir Putin accused the country of being complicit in the funding on ISIS.
Those allegations stung, especially in light of the fact that Putin delivered the accusations while sitting right next to Jordan’s King Abdullah. What Turkey didn’t know, however, was that The Kremlin fully intended to launch an all-out PR campaign to implicate Erdogan and his family in the funding of international terrorism.
In a dramatic presentation delivered on Wednesday, the Russian MoD outlined the supply routes ISIS uses to smuggle its stolen crude and as it turns out, all roads literally lead to Turkey. This is of course broadly consistent with our assessment of the situation as outlined in the following four pieces:
- The Most Important Question About ISIS That Nobody Is Asking
- Meet The Man Who Funds ISIS: Bilal Erdogan, The Son Of Turkey's President
- How Turkey Exports ISIS Oil To The World: The Scientific Evidence
- ISIS Oil Trade Full Frontal: "Raqqa's Rockefellers", Bilal Erdogan, KRG Crude, And The Israel Connection
This all comes on the heels of Russian airstrikes on ISIS oil convoys which Moscow claims provoked Ankara to engage The Kremlin’s warplane late last month.
Well, if you thought Russia was set to let up on destroying Islamic State oil trucks and crude infrastructure, or on bombing ISIL and al-Nusra (both of which are supported by Turkey, Saudi Arabia, and Qatar) you can think again, because as the following clips show, Moscow is now hell bent on proving a point to the financiers of Sunni extremism.

"Is the West turning Syria into a new Afghanistan with the Mediterranean?"
by Chritina Lin 12/3/15
Ps. It seems that Pepe Escobar is to hot an item for Atimes: archives only {WTF}
http://atimes.com/2015/12/is-the-west-turning-syria-into-a-new-afghanistan-in-the-mediterranean/
JMO: Syria is not Afghanistan for a myriad of geographical reasons. Syria is in the 'Fertile Crescent' with the Mediterranean on the outside edge of the arc!... which include Israel, Lebanon, Jordan, Syria, and *Iraq [*this is what the USSA can't afford to give up]. Lastly, the Arabian Peninsula's 8*/9 [9 total] standing muslim/sunni nations (Jordan,*Iraq, Kuwait, Bahrain, Qatar, UAE, Oman, Yemen, and Saudi Arabia) are insulated/ isolated, so to say, from the inchocate renascent 'Islamic State' held dormant for a century since the 'Arab Revolt of 1916-18'.
Note: Islam is a Universal Religion,... and was never meant to be a National Religion. Arabia owes to Islam its very existence. Islam brought the tribes and clans of the Arabian Peninsula unto a existential meaning of being, with an identity equated with todays 'Arabic-Muslim Nation's. Islam is due in all its glory to the birth of the Arab Nation... the birth of a State, and the birth of its National History. This is todays modern Arab Nationalism in a nutshell. One only has to go back to Napolean invasion of Egypt in 1798, and the British absurd takeover of Egypt in 1881, with the Sykes-Picot secret demarcation drawn in the sand cononializing a proud people into a obediant, docile feudal despotic`system-state, predicated, ie., handed down by the French to the English unto todays USSA Impirialism du`jour!

Ramelan is currently out of (published) range of the S-400s at Latakia. However, it is in range of any located at the recently liberated Kuweires airbase.
The Syrian forces have a stronghold at the border town of al Qamishli 60 km west of Ramelan. There is a large airbase there. Maybe it needs some S-300s and Russia 'advisors'.
Building a base on Syrian land without the permission of Assad, whom the US wants gone (this is not the way to get him to go), might invite some noisy birds from the Caspian Sea.

One of the top ME advisors to Obama is Zbigniew Brzezinski. He had this to say recently:
"The Russian naval and air presences in Syria are vulnerable, isolated geographically from their homeland," Brzezinski noted. "They could be 'disarmed' if they persist in provoking the US. In these rapidly unfolding circumstances the U.S. has only one real option if it is to protect its wider stakes in the region: to convey to Moscow the demand that it cease and desist from military actions that directly affect American assets," he said.
These are the globalist 'advisors' that have set previous military actions in motion. In this case, they're pushing for WWIII.
"The Russian naval and air presences in Syria are vulnerable, isolated geographically from their homeland," Brzezinski noted.
This guy is suffering from late stage dementia.
Russia is isolated from the their homeland while in Syria but the USA is not?
This fuckwit is going to walk us straight into WWIII.
Squid
And just how is this to cause a big war? Russia always backs down once NATO takes ground or space. Always has. This airbase might get attacked by proxy forces but I doubt even that. As the response would be to bomb Hezbollah and Syrian troops across Syria.
This is what they have already publicly floated - Occupy And Govern
Putin's fear of any confrontation with NATO is giving his enemy the opening to take Syria directly with bases and troops on the ground.
Just like Serbia backed down after Austria shelled Belgrade in retalliation for the murder of their archduke.
The US technicians seen wearing shirts bearing " Damascus or Bust ".
Bring it on Numbnuts! Fire one of them Crooooooooozes Vlad and knock that wedge out of Obola's Hand. Skinny Jive Moutha Fucka.
If you listen real carefully you can hear crying coming from Langley!
When you have Conviction on your side and the wind in your Sails levitates you into another dimension. The decaying NATO Embers are stoked the fuck out. Hollande , Meerkitty and Cameron can't pay the fucking Rent.
The term “Daesh” is strategically a better choice because it is still accurate in that it spells out the acronym of the group’s full Arabic name, al-Dawla al-Islamiya fi al-Iraq wa al-Sham. Yet, at the same time, “Daesh” can also be understood as a play on words — and an insult. Depending on how it is conjugated in Arabic, it can mean anything from “to trample down and crush” to “a bigot who imposes his view on others.” Already, the group has reportedly threatened to cut out the tongues of anyone who uses the term.
That was informative. Thank you. But it is simplistic of you to presume that the acronym ISIS only refers to the ancient Egyptian goddess, because it is most people's association with the term.
In case you missed it in the many ZH posts (of which mine was the first, I believe), ISIS also stands for the original name of the Israeli intelligence agency, the Mossad. In that case, ISIS = Israeli Secret Intelligence Service.
Given the preponderance of evidence that IDF is providing support to ISIS in the Golan Heights, has even treated hundreds of them at the Ziv Medical Clinic, and even had its PM Netanyahu shake hands with them, it seems appropriate to have the Israeli acronym in the back of the mind, when doing Word Association games.
Nonetheless, I also like your explanation of DAESH.
Have you tried to burns asphalt? It is the SAME MATERIALS as raw un-processed oils.
Pour Gasoline (which have faster burns rates) as starter. Can you made that asphalt burns?? Or.... use Diesel (which have higher calories, caused by higher density), can you even light the diesel in open air??
If you can't makes that asphalt burns? WHAT DO YOU THINK IT IS EASY TO LIGHT RAW OILS TRANSPORTED IN A METAL CONTAINERS??
- - -
Do you even know, oils MUST BE HEATED BY STEAM FIRST, before its viscosity becomes higher, so that it CAN FLOW EASILY TO BE TRANSFERED TO A TANK??
Reading your mocking comments of Russia effort, just show others, you don't know shits of what Russia's dealing with. Aren't you shame your stupidity came out for all to see?
Russia must use special incendiary bombs just to light than damn oils. And that bombs must also breach several oil tanks to "encourage" lighting of adjacent oil tanks also.
I'd like to see you try to plan this kind of attack. Can you get better result than what Russian currently done?
My company supplies medical equipments to oil & gas companies (not just hosp/clinics/privates practices). Some of the road to remote oil rigs in the middle of nowhere? They just pour raw oils to make roads. It stays solid for much of the days. But when the sun directly shining to these oil asphalt in the middle of summer's season? At 48 degree celcius these asphalt start softening. And you are inside an 18-wheelers trucks trying to reach that remote clinic site.
Have you have experience like that?? Or you just makes assumption in front of your keyboard??
Don't you find the ISIS/ISIL flag ressambling the Blackwater flag? (Take off the red ring...)
Turkey will just send more across the border.
They wind them up like clock toys made in a factory.
Wasn't there a gas pipeline planned to bring natural gas from the ME to Europe, through Turkey?
Wasn't this going to be Russia's main competition?
Yep, this should stop that.
MOAR MOAR MOAR...... EXTERMINATE ALL THE RATS!!!
CIA wasting money on dust.
My position is far afield from the consensus so the odds are greater that I'm wrong.
I think Russia, since November 24, has quietly declared a de facto no-fly zone over Syria. Those members of the US coalition, including France, England, Netherlands are welcome to fly over Syria to bomb ISIS, as long as they tell Russia of their avenue and targets of attack.
Turkey, understandably, is not welcome to fly into Syria and risks being shot down by air to air or ground to air missile.
The US, whom Russia has accused of relaying the flight plan Russia gave to it the day its Su-24 was struck down by Turkey and whose pilot was immediately murdered by Turkmen laying in waiting, has not flown over Syria since the downing. Bristling at the idea of having to inform their enemy of the Crimea of their movements
For the past 10 days the US has been flying drones over the combat zone, most of them surveillance, some with ordinance. They claim to be plotting and planning ISIS's Waterloo, but the only thing they're plotting and planning is terminating Russia's cat bird seat.
Jack Burton mentioned a Turkish incursion to try to draw the Russians into that neck of the Syrian woods.
I'm sure Putin is happily thinking about it and wrapping Obama's lump of coal.
Or his lump of plutonium. It's Obama's choice.
Is this a private war or can anyone get into it?
I still don't understand why Syria/Russian tanks don't just park along all roads between Syria and Turkey, and blast all oil trucks.
It has to be massively cheaper to supply and operate tanks than aircraft.
Plus, you can wipe out all oil trucks, not just some of them.
Plus, you can check "papers" on every vehicle if you want, to make sure any legitimate traffic is allowed to pass, while destroying all illegitimate traffic.
Plus, why destroy oil trucks? Just make the truck driver abandon the truck, then have your own guys drive the trucks to a refinery in Syria. Why waste the oil and trucks when you don't have to?
Reason is cos fighting back territory, take time to reach border. Not there yet...
main is shut the open north corridor maybe 60 km wide from Turkey thru which move assorted enemy
Tanks? Armor is vulnerable if sitting. Active use only, almost always with troop..otherwise hold back safe area
otherwise sit like outhouse for blowing by any halfass with propelled weapon
Once Kuweires airbase is reopened, Azaz will be safely in range for Mi-24 attack helicopters and Su-25 ground attack bombers.
Pish-tush
unless you believe we've been in a recession for some time, in which case the probability is 100%.
Turkey == ISIS haven
& mafia leader erDOGan uses them to make huge money
