Foreign AffairsRe: Russia Destroys Turkish Truck Convoy Headed For Syrian Militants -- Erdogan Sile by scully95: 6:15pm On Nov 27, 2015
onatisi:
there is mo iota of truth in Israel been behind Isis. America is Israel greatest and strongest supporter and there is no way Israel will support an organization whose aim it is to destroy america and expect USA to continue giving her support. Isis beheads Americans and still threatens to do more even on us soil and you think America will just keep quiet? Alleging that Israel supports Isis is like believing that Israel sponsored Osama bin laden .israel is surrounded by enemies and removing Assad and destroying Iran nuclear facilities is top on their agenda.
THINK AGAIN.. Those 110% in support of ISIS or taking out Assad... Isreal, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey And the head of the Empire is U.S.A

The reason is clear. For the empire, they need Syria out to weaken Lebanon Hezbollah and Iran. As long as Syria is ally to the two countries isreal fear the most in middle east. Forget it..

Now Russia is Syria's Ally and this is where Russia stand.. Go back to any history.. If Russians Stand 110% behind any government the way they are standing behind Assad.. They always win. Even though Assad in the future may Backstab but forget it..

The future is predictable... Qatar long time ago threatened to start bombing assad.. Well, let the Emir try it.

I thought Russia would have burnt down Turkey by now. Most of these Russian's midgets on Nairaland are just dumb!!
lol.. Mumu talk. Do you know what is provocation ? A wiser Putin always one step ahead. What the west thinks he would do, he does the oppsoite all the time and this is one of the main reasons they fear him.

The neocons actually want to drag him into 3rd world war. And this is the reason the big head, Erogan Turkish president quickly called NATO instead of Russia. Coward that he's.

What Putin did is fairly predictable by the way.. Just one person killed after over 60 days of Air-campaign ? Please give it up to Russian Air-force.. They are super humans for real.

Now, did it stop Russian AIR.f from bombING the oil trucks ?
NO
Target is to free Syria from Terrorist.
What Russia is doing is pretty defensive.. Making the cost to Attack Assad from outside his boarder pretty expensive and almost impossible.
I would personally stop liking Putin if he declared war because of just one fighter jet shut down...

He's truly a leader.. A stand up ovation once again for Putin.

It doesn't make sense. What would he deploy if Russia territory is attacked? S-300 is more than enough for Syria. I still believe the S-400 thing is just a piece of news for local consumption of Russians.
it's obviously for NATO. UKRAINE has S-300, most definitely, they sold out the counter measures to the enemy or NATO long time ago..

S-400 is 110% for NATO and also to declare a no fly zone over Syrian Airspace.. It will be officially declared sooner or latter. When most of the IsiS region are been cleared. Obviously, the U.s coalition will need no fake coalition in Syria anymore.

Russia’s Interdiction of ISIS-Turkey Oil Trade and Attacks on Turkmen jihadi militants Poses Risk of Enlargement of Syrian Conflict

UPDATED

By: JiminNH

The increasing velocity of events in Syria indicates that the conflict may be ready to spill over into a larger conflagration and direct conflict between the forces of the AZ hegemon and the Resistance thereto. A couple of apparently un-related events have rapidly coalesced into armed conflict between an NATO member state and Russia, the consequences of which are yet to be revealed, but unlikely to be anything but more fuel on the fires of the not only the Syrian conflict but the war between the AZ empire and Russia.

Follow the Oil:

Followers of this blog are undoubtedly aware that Russian Pres. Vladimir Putin was outspoken in his comments at a post G-20 press conference on Nov. 16th regarding not only direct aid and support to ISIS by Western allied G-20 member states, but also the nature of those same Western allies who aid ISIS in the transshipment and sale of contraband ISIS oil.

The western “free press” has still yet to report on that presser wherein Pres. Putin stated that he provided evidence of “our data on the financing of Islamic State units by natural persons in various countries. The financing comes from 40 countries, as we established, including some G20 members”, and further where he told of providing imagery and intelligence data that shows the massive oil tanker truck convoys that ship oil from ISIS controlled territory, in his words “convoys stretching for dozens of kilometers, going beyond the horizon when seen from a height of four-five thousand meters”.
Source:

Readers to this blog are also probably aware of the deep ties between Turkish Pres. Erdogan and the various Wahhibi and Salafist groups in Syria, to specifically include Turkish collusion with ISIS in both military support as well as financial support. That financial involvement includes claims that Bilal Erdogan, the son of Turkish Pres. Recip Tayyep Erdogan, is the principal conduit of the transshipment and sale of contraband ISIS oil supplies, and that his company BMZ Ltd. owns and operates both the tanker trucks that send ISIS’s ill-begotten oil to Turkey, and from their onto Ceylan where it is sold on the world markets. BMZ also owns oil tanker ships that then transport the oil to end destinations, in EU markets, Japan and, reportedly, Israel.
Source:

In recent weeks, Russia has been straightforward in reporting its attacks on ISIS’s financial lifeline, i.e. the sale of oil. RuAF bombers and cruise missiles have attacked both oil infrastructure (tanks and transshipment points), as well as the fleet of oil tanker trucks that transship said oil to Turkey.

Sources: RT

and ZeroHedge

Not surprisingly, the Pentagon disputes those assertions.
Source:

Of course, it is only “coincidental” that the USAF-led “coalition” that has been putatively bombing ISIS for over 16 months failed to hit a single one of those convoys until literally hours after Putin’s as-yet unreported press conference.
Source:

Russia’s air war against the financial aid rendered to ISIS by Turkey and its western allies through the illicit and eminently illegal sale of stolen Syrian (and Iraqi) oil by ISIS through Turkey poses a dire threat to ISIS, as well as causes a catastrophic loss to Erdogan’s family business empire.

Russian Air Operations against Turkmen Militiants in Northen Latakia Province

In another sequence of event, Russia’s air expeditionary wing has been engaged in close air support and other air operations targeting the anti-Assad jihadi militias, including the al Qaeda/al Nusra affiliated“Turkmen Brigade”, in the northern Latakia province of Syria. In response to those punitive air operations, the Turkmen militants openly called out for help from Turkey against the RuAF. An article was posted on the Turkish newspaper Todays Zaman regarding the plea for help, in an article headlined:
“Syrian Turkmens ask for Turkey’s help under heavy bombardment by Assad, Russia”

Source:

Also days ago, Turkish P.M. Davutoglu warned Russia about bombing the same ethnic Turkmen militias in Latakia province.

Confluence of Events Leads to Direct Conflict

It appears that Davutoglu is a man of his word. These two events have coalesced into an incident whereby Turkish F-16 fighters have apparently shot down the RuAF SU-24 Fender bomber in Syrian airspace, with the pilot and navigator ejecting over Syrian territory. Reports indicate that the Turkmen militants exacted typical jihadi vengeance against the RuAF crewmembers by killing them while parachuting to the ground and/or on the ground. Reports also indicate that a RuAF search and rescue helicopted was likewise attacked by militants, the results of which are not known to this author at the moment.



Russian Pres. Putin has clearly articulated his viewpoint that Russia has been “stabbed in the back delivered by the accomplices to terrorists.” He stated emphatically that the Russian plane posed no threat to Turkey, and that it was operating solely in Syrian airspace against “terrorists” The implication is clear – he just called NATO member Turkey an accomplice to terror, not to mention the killer of two Russian servicemen. While there will undoubtedly be a duel of radar tracking to show whether or not the Fencer violated Turkish airspace, as claimed by Davutoglu, the reality is that a NATO jet just shot down the first Russian aircraft since the formation of the NATO alliance, an operation conducted in support of Turkmen jihadi’s and likely in revenge for Russia’s destruction of the ISIS/Erdogan Oil company.

Likely Outcome:

From this moment forward, we can expect that NATO will provide 100% support for the Turkish claims of the Fencer violating Turkish airspace. After all, since readers to this blog are fully aware that the multiplicity of Wahhabi and Salafist jihadi militants in Syria are but proxy armies for the AZ empire, and its armed forces in the form of NATO militaries, such an outcome is only to be expected.

The real question is what can we expect to be Russia’s response. Beyond FM Lavrov cancelling his scheduled meeting with Turkey, and his call for Russian citizens to boycott Turkey’s tourist destinations, we can fully expect Russia to respond in the military domain.

The respons is likely to be in multiple domains. Reports have already emerged that the Russian naval flotilla off Syria will provide heightened air defense coverage, likely moving naval assets closer to the Turkish/Syrian border.



In the air, at a minimum we coud anticipate that Russia will enhance its fighter cover in support of CAS (close air support) operations near the Turkish border. To accomplish that feat, it is likely that Russia will need to enlarge its air expeditionary wing in Syria with more advanced air-to-air combat fighters.

Russia may well enhance its air-to-air fighter assets in an effort to close of Syrian airspace to Turkish fighter/bombers, which have repeatedly violated Syrian sovereign airspace in operations putatively directed against the Kurds, but likely directed against the Syrian Arab Army and other Syrian assets in the “undeclared” war on the Syrian Arab Republic.


Another likely result is that Russia will formally recognize that reports of the presence of the S-400 SAM system is present in Syria, and that it will be employed in defense of Russian air operations over northern Syria. I would also anticipate that such surface to air missile coverage, perhaps the more mobile Sa-22 Pantsir SAM system, will be moved as far north in the Latakia province as possible to provide more timely protection to RuAF CAS operations.


If so, we will undoubtedly read of Russian SAM operators “lighting up” Turkish and other NATO jets operating in the border region, locking onto those targets with firing solutions in case those SAMS are actually deployed to prevent another shootdown of a Russian plane or to take down the plane(s) that engage in such an attack in the future.


Finally, other unconventional means of protecting airborne assets, such as electronic warfare operations conducted by the fleet, by airborne assets and/or ground based EW systems could well be used to shield and protect the bomber forces. The inherent risk of significant use of EW assets, however, would be that NATO could discover previously unknown Russian capabilities in that crucial domain and have a “head start” on developing EW countermeasures for the likely next phase of the AZ war on Russia.

The key question is whether this unjustified attack on the RuAF plane operating in Syrian airspace will be the incident that causes Russia to provide additional support to its air operations in support of Syrian sovereign rights of self defense in the form of introduction of ground forces. Such ground forces could now justifiably be deployed directly along the Syrian-Turkish border, at a minimum against the Turkmen Brigade which just butchered two RuAF servicemen, but perhaps more expansively along larger swaths of the open border and thereby help close off not only the NATO-ISIS arms supply lines (the reporting of which cost Serena Shim her life) but also the Erdogan family’s illicit enterprise of shipping and selling ISIS oil supplies in western oil markets.


Whatever the case, the gloves appear to be coming off, and those who back the terrorists in Syria, NATO member Turkey among them along with the AZ empire’s GCC allies of Saudi Arabia and Qatar, are increasingly easy to discern. The question is whether Turkey’s “throwing down the gauntlet” and challenging Russia’s air operations will be the trigger event for more conflict, or perhaps the warning shot that makes all parties realize the heightened risks of global conflict that the neo-Ottoman Caliph Erdogan attack against the Russian Air Force just engendered.

Foreign AffairsRussia May Use Electronic Jamming Systems To Protect Its Pilots In Syria by scully95(op): 10:55pm On Nov 24, 2015

Russia will have to resort to electronic warfare in Syria to protect its pilots and prevent incidents similar to the downing of Russia’s Su-24 jet on Tuesday, according to Lieutenant-General Evgeny Buzhinsky; they will include both ground-based systems and equipment installed on special aircraft.


“Regarding the possible impact of this incident on the further developments of the operation in Syria, I think that from now on, our pilots will be more attentive and if the Turks continue behaving in such a manner, Russia will have to resort to electronic jamming and other warfare equipment, including special aircraft with special equipment on board, in order to protect our pilots from being stricken with missiles,” said the lieutenant-general.
Buzhinsky also added that the so-called means of objective control, including flight radar and other equipment, will allow Russia to verify exactly where and how the bomber was downed, excluding any possible discrepancies on the issue.


Earlier on Tuesday, Russian Su-24M Fencer bomber was downed by an air-to-air missile in Syria near the Turkish border by the Turkish Air Force while carrying out precision strikes against terrorists in northern Syria.
The Su-24 bomber jet was in Syrian airspace at the altitude 6,000 meters, the Russian Defense Ministry said. The pilots were reportedly able to parachute out of the jet before it crashed.

Bonaparte is the man. Hitler is an emotional man. 33 wars? You mean they won thirty skirmishes.
Putin is an Emotional War man and South Ossetia is gone.. Crimean peninsular has rejoined Russia.. also gone. DOneskt and Lugansk already a covert buffer zone. Putin is a diplomatic man. he fights war with sense which to me makes super sense. We all know what he's fighting for..A multi-polar world which also makes super sense because absolute power corrupts completely..

Taking South Ossetia and Crimea is answer to NATO dragging closer to its boarder.. Any further dragging means, the country will follow the same fate as Ukraine, and Georgia.. The bear is up


And yes that is a fact out of its 33 wars within the range of 300 years. 3 centuries.... It lost just 3 wars..

America is not up to 300 years and I can count 5 wars U.S lost. Well, that's not the pt.. The pt here is! The Bear is up again. Justice and history will always be on Russia's side.
Foreign AffairsRusso-syrian Forces Close To Cutting Off Isil's Supply Routes From Turkey by scully95(op): 9:23pm On Nov 24, 2015

The Russian Air Force should continue its efforts to close the Jarabulus-Afrin corridor in northern Syria, despite the latest Turkish provocation, Bangkok-based geopolitical analyst Tony Cartalucci stresses.

Geopolitical analyst Tony Cartalucci draws attention to the fact that over the recent weeks Russian and Syrian forces have been steadily gaining ground in Syria, retaking territory from ISIL and al-Qaeda.

"The Syrian Arab Army (SAA) has even begun approaching the Euphrates River east of Aleppo, which would effectively cut off ISIS [ISIL] from its supply lines leading out of Turkish territory," Cartalucci narrates in his latest article for New Eastern Outlook.

A man (C) identified in the subtitiles as Al Karar the Iraqi gestures as he speaks at an undisclosed location in this image taken from undated video footage released by Islamic State. Islamic State warned in the new video on November 16, 2015 that countries taking part in air strikes against Syria would suffer the same fate as France, and threatened to attack in Washington


He explains that from there, Syrian troops with Russian air support would move north, into the very "safe zone" which Washington and Ankara have planned to carve out of Syria. Cartalucci points out that the "safe zone" includes a northern Syria area stretching from Jarabulus to Afrin and Al-Dana.
If Syrian troops establish their control over this zone, the Western plan of taking and holding the territory (with the prospect of further Balkanization of the region) would fall apart at the seams. In light of this, the regime change project, harbored by the West since the very beginning of the Syrian unrest, would be "indefinitely suspended," Cartalucci underscores.

"The endgame is at hand, and only the most desperate measures can hope to prevent Russia and Syria from finally securing Syria's borders. Turkey's provocation is just such a measure," he emphasizes.

"As in the game of chess, a player often seeks to provoke their opponent into a series of moves," Cartalucci notes.

​According to the geopolitical analyst, Russia's best choice now is to continue winning this war, eventually taking the Jarabulus-Afrin corridor. By fortifying this area Russian and Syrian forces would prevent NATO from invading Syria, at the same time cutting off the ISIL and al-Nusra Front supply route from Turkey.
[img]http://3.bp..com/-hbqL7LKfRs4/VlTFYqcvuPI/AAAAAAAAo0Y/h5_jAsb7qJ8/s1600/d1.JPG[/img]

​Russo-Syrian victory would have far-reaching consequences for the region as a whole.

"With Syria secured, an alternative arc of influence will exist within the Middle East, one that will inevitably work against Saudi and other Persian Gulf regimes' efforts in Yemen, and in a wider sense, begin the irreversible eviction of Western hegemony from the region," Cartalucci underscores.

[img]http://3.bp..com/--uPzNcMlofM/VlTFYgkqh9I/AAAAAAAAo0U/XuDkhaaiwok/s1600/d2.JPG[/img]
​He believes that it is the beginning of the end of the US-led unipolar global order.

The geopolitical analyst stresses that in a war emotions should be channeled by "superior strategic thinking" into a good plan which serves both short-term and long-term objectives. According to Cartalucci, the Russian leadership has repeatedly demonstrated its ability to take balanced strategic decisions.

Foreign AffairsTurkey Summons Russian Ambassador Over Downed Su-24 by scully95(op): 4:11pm On Nov 24, 2015
[img]http://4.bp..com/-XNQKPUnIsZQ/VlR9QkuNeGI/AAAAAAAAozc/Czc1UK6ZZv4/s1600/1.JPG[/img]
Turkey has summoned the Russian Minister Counsellor over the downed Su-24, according to the embassy press representative Igor Mityakov.

The Russian Minister Counsellor in Ankara has been summoned to the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Russian embassy confirmed.

“The Embassy confirms that Russian Embassy Minister Counsellor in Ankara Sergei Panov has been summoned to the Turkish Foreign Ministry. We will make no comments on the subject of discussion,” Mityakov said.

A Russian Su-24 was shot down over Syria on Tuesday, according to reports from the Russian Defense Ministry. The two pilots were able to eject from the plane, although their current fate is unknown.

Downing of Su-24 'Will Have Serious Consequences' for Russia-Turkey Ties
Tragedy with Russian Su-24 downed in Syria to have serious consequences for Moscow-Ankara relations, Vladimir Putin stated.

The Russian president underscored that "either way, our pilots and our plane were not posing a threat to the Republic of Turkey."

“This tragic event will have serious consequences for Russian-Turkish relations. We have always regarded Turkey not only as a close neighbor, but also as a friendly state. I don’t know who needed what was done today, but we didn’t in any case,” Putin said during a meeting with Jordanian King Abdullah II in Sochi.

Russia will analyze everything that happened with its crashed Su-24 military aircraft in Syria, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday.
"We will, of course, carefully analyze everything that happened," Putin said at a meeting with Jordan's King Abdullah II.

"Instead of contacting us immediately Turkey addressed their NATO partners — as if it was us who downed their plane, not vice versa," Putin said.
"Our jet fell six kilometers away from the border, within Syrian arispace."
The Russian Su-24 was directly tasked with the fight against the Islamic State group, carrying out preventative airstrikes against terrorists, Russian President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday.

"They were carrying out an operation to combat IS. Northern Latakia is a mountainous region where militants are gathered, mostly natives of the Russian Federation. In this sense, they were carrying out their direct task of preventative strikes against terrorists who could return to Russia at any time. These are, of course, people who must be considered international terrorists," Putin said at a meeting with Jordan's King Abdullah II.

NATO Calls Emergency Meeting After Russian Su-24 Downed Over Syria


NATO has called an emergency meeting after Russian Su-24 jet was downed over the Turkish-Syrian border.

The NATO ambassadors will meet in Brussels at 5 pm (4 pm GMT).

"The meeting of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization will be held at 5 pm (4 pm GMT) at Turkey's request," the NATO representative said.

NATO is monitoring the situation closely, the representative added. The Alliance is in close contact with the Turkish government.
The Russian Su-24 military aircraft that crashed in Syria earlier in the day was downed by an air-to-air missile from a Turkish plane, Russia's President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday, describing the incident as a "stab in the back."

Putin added that the aircraft was around a kilometer (0.6 miles) from Turkey when it was hit.
Earlier in the day it was reported that the Russian Su-24 Fencer jet crashed in Syria with two people aboard. Ankara claims Turkish F-16s shot down the plane because it violated the country's airspace. Contrary to Ankara’s accusations, the Russian Defense Ministry said the Russian jet did not violate Turkish airspace and cited objective monitoring data as proof.

According to initial ministry information, both pilots were able to eject from the airplane. Their current condition and whereabouts have not been released.

Christianity EtcMust Read: Olodumare (GOD) In Yoruba Ifa And Orisha Is Monotheistic by scully95(op): 10:29pm On Nov 20, 2015
The concept OLODUMARE has been misconstrued by many,this is due to unwarranted and unjustifiable colonial exploration and exploitation by our colonial masters ,they use foreign religion to enslave African . they claim we practice polytheism. To be sincere and be frank the concept polytheism never exist at all in IFA and orisha tradition. In this little post I wish share my humble idear about yoruba monotheistic view of the nature of Olodumare (God ).How other orisha are energies through whish mankind can reach Olodumare. For example if you want to see an emperor of an empire you cannot expect to just bulg in into his palace,you will need to see some chiefs who are next in rank to him, who can communicate with him easily and get what they want from him easily than you will do. So it is wise for you to send such chief to the emperor to get what you want for you quickly than for you to be spending donkey of years to get what you want from an emperor whish you may not communicate with easily.

The yoruba people so respect Olodumare that they channel their request through an energy called orisha to Olodumare and to be sincere with with very verifiable proof they get quick answer. That is why even people that claim to embrace foreign religion whether Christian or Muslim 99% of them still fall back on these energies when situation is expedient for it. Many people run from their root just to follow crowd due to inherited Colonial mentality . to be sincere with you there is nothing good about colonialism whether their culture Or religion they bring to Africa it all base on mean to enslave us ,.up till date western religion and culture and some times the educational system that the African inherited from their individual colonial master has always been a source of impediment to African development. While the Western and Eastern religion and shapy read and write education system alone without accompany technical know how to robbed and pillage African of their natural resources up till today as they do during time of slave trade. Well that is by the way I am just concerned. Back to my discussion,

who is Olodumare?

Olodumare in yoruba spirituality is monotheistic. There is only one God, and that is Olodumare. Olodumare is given many names like :Eledumare, Eduard, Old run, olofin orun, Oluwa, Eleda, Adeda, Aseda, Alase, etc. The list is endless. The name Olorun (whish mean the owner of heaven become predominant in usage with the coming of foreign colonial religion like Christianity and Islam )these foreign religion try as much as possible to avoid to use the name olodumare because they believe it take people back to their tradition.Olorun still mean same thing as Olodumare because is just using different name to refer to one entity. But Olodumare is the real yoruba name for God and all others names Are secondary to Olodumare. So what then is the meaning of the word Olodumare?

The word olodumare has be giving various meaning by our fathers. My first point of call is that the word come from the word OLODU OMO ARE (THAT IS AN ENTITY THAT IS SO ENORMOUS OR BIG YET WE CAN NOT ASERTAIN IT LOCATION )Odu mean a very big clay pot, Are mean a location that we can not asertain, hence if yoruba send a child an errands and the don't know his or her where about or ascertain where he was they will say 'MI o MO ibi to rin irin ARE lo'(that Is I don't know his whereabouts )so the word Olodumare come from the word OLODU OMO ARE (that is the entity that is so big and enormous yet we cannot fathom or ascertain where it is ) .the second view is that OLODU TO MARE (that is the only big entity that knows what is right )but to be sincere the first view is the most correct. Olodumare is aslo know as OLORUN (THE OWNER OF HEAVEN )OLUWA (LORD ),OLIFIN ORUN (KING OF HEAVEN )ORISE (SOURCE OF ALL THINGS )ADEDA ASEDA (THE CREATOR )ELEMI (THE OWNER AND KEEPER OF LIFE )ETC. Even some have interpret Olodumare to mean OLODU TO MON IRE (That's the owner of big clay pot that contain blessing )but as I told you earlier the first meaning I give seem the most correct and for most authority on it. I have heard and read my self some authors and especially foreign spiritual authors teaching and writing that Olodumare is a male in gender, some say olodumare is aa female. This notion of assigning gender whether male or female to Olodumare is absolutely wrong with due respect. .The correct position is that olodumare is neither male or female, olodumare is transcendent omniscient and gender neutral deity.

In yoruba cosmology Olodumare is believe to be ONE, it is believe that Olodumare is the creator of heaven and earth and whole universe, he is supreme over what is on earth and in heaven. Olodumare supremacy is absolute. He is acknowledge by all orisha and divinities as the one who all power and authority belong, he can do and undo any thing he want. He created everything he is self existing.
No body have ever seeing Olodumare including the orisha. It is only Oriunmila that see a part of his buttocks after a gigantic sacrifice at the sea. In odu ifa Osa Otura

He ask will I discovered Olodumare secrets ,everything he asked ?
Orunmila was instructed to offer sacrifice
But he should take the sacrifice to the sea
As he was about to place it at the beach
He saw Olodumare put off his garment
He saw the buttocks

Because Olodumare was stark naked and was in human image
Olodumare ask Orunmila did you see me?
Orunmila answer yes
I only see plump part of your buttock
Olodumare then said since you see my buttocks
There is nothing on earth that you will not be able to unravel again
Orumila was dancing and very happy

Foreign AffairsVideo: Russia Destroys Around 500 Fuel Tanker Vehicles Transporting Illegal Oil by scully95(op): 3:46pm On Nov 19, 2015
Around 500 fuel tanker vehicles transporting illegal oil from Syria to Iraq for processing have been destroyed by Russia’s Air Forces, the General Staff said.
“In recent years, Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS/ISIL) and other extremist groups have organized the operations of the so-called ‘pipeline on wheels’ on the territories they control,” Russian General Staff spokesman Colonel General Andrey Kartapolov said.

Hundreds of thousands of tons of fuel have been delivered to Iraq for processing by trucks and the revenue generated from these illegal exports is the one of the terrorists’ main sources of funding, he said.

The spokesman displayed images showing convoys comprised of hundreds of vehicles transporting oil to back his assertion.

“In just the first few days, our aviation has destroyed 500 fuel tanker trucks, which greatly reduced illegal oil export capabilities of the militants and, accordingly, their income from oil smuggling,” Kartapolov stressed.

The spokesman also said that the Russian military has begun developing proposals for joint military action with the French Navy against the terrorists in accordance with an order by President Vladimir Putin.


“This joint work will begin after the arrival of aircraft carrier Charles de Gaulle to the Syrian shores,” Kartapolov explained.

Russia has been bombing Islamic State and other terror groups in Syria since September 30 at the official request of country’s president, Bashar Assad.

On Tuesday, Russia’s fleet of 25 long-range bombers joined Su-34, Su-25, and Su-24M warplanes conducting operations in Syria to double the number of airstrikes against the militants.

First footage of Paris attacks shows diners diving for cover as jihadist sprays café with bullets... and women he tried to kill at point blank range but who escaped because his gun jammed. The exclusive images show the merciless savagery of an Islamic State assassin (inset) and the extraordinary bravery and survival instincts of his intended victims. They also show the incredible luck of a young woman who would have died had the terrorist's assault rifle not misfired as he held the weapon over her head, giving her a chance to run away. Police believe her to be the luckiest person to escape with their life during Friday's psychopathic rampage which left 129 people dead and 99 critically injured. There is also remarkable footage of a 20 year old waitress who ducked under the bar and wrapped her arms around an older, injured woman as the Islamic State gunman who sprayed the restaurant and its outdoor dining area with bullets. The Daily Mail can today reveal the horrifying footage with second-by-second commentary.

Russia man, you will end up enlisting in the Russian military since you love war. You and your beloved Putin can get involved in Middle East all you want. I just don't want part of my tax money going to that hell hole. Plus, one 911 is enough for me. Growing number of Americans feel that way. What's so appealing about war. Why don't you start one in the country you live ?. Think about that.
You don't understand the scope of things happening in the middle east. Saudi Arabia will lose in Yemen and Syria. Isreal, Qatar, Turkey and the head of the hagemon U.S.A will die a slow but painful death. The world is in a Transition into a Multi-polar world... And that's the real problem and the cause of the war by the way..

You killed Gadafi, his dreams still live on.. Saddam and the rest.. What about the blood of the dead coming back to hunt the invader. The hegemon ? WHat goes around comes around. It's coming around soon.

I swear, how can someone going on a terrorist attack decided to take his passport along ?? Even bank robbers hide their identity.

The only thing I think is real are those people dead already.(Of which to them it does not mean anything) The rest is replay of 9/11 but on a small scale level.. Which ever the case, France is already involved in Syria. The only country I trust fighting ISIS or terrorist so far is Russia.

Foreign AffairsPutin The ‘only Defender Of Christianity’ – President Bashar Assad by scully95(op): 8:10pm On Nov 18, 2015
[img]http://2.bp..com/-_rexkaFhIvk/VkzMyVcioVI/AAAAAAAAoI8/vGFn-hacv_s/s640/assad.jpg[/img]

Syrian President Bashar Assad considers Russia’s Vladimir Putin as the “only defender of Christian civilization one can trust.”


“When I look at the present state of things in the world I realize that Vladimir Putin is the sole defender of Christian civilization one can rely on,” Assad said in an interview with French magazine Valeurs Actuelles.
The Syrian leader also said that he would step down only if asked to by the Syrian people and the Syrian parliament, adding that the issue of his possible resignation had not yet been raised on an international level.



Syria will only share intelligence information with France if Paris changes its policies in the region, President Assad said.

"If the French government is not serious in its fight against terrorism, we will not waste our time collaborating with a country, government or an institution that supports terrorism," he noted in the interview carried out the day after Friday's deadly attacks in Paris.

"You have to first change policy so that it is based on one criteria, to be part of an alliance that joins countries only fighting terrorism and not supporting them," Assad added.

More than 220,000 Syrians have lost their lives in four-and-a-half years of armed conflict, which began with anti-government protests before escalating into a full-scale civil war.

More than 11 million others have been forced from their homes as forces loyal to President Bashar Assad and those opposed to his rule battle each other — as well as jihadist militants from Islamic State and the al-Nusra Front.
Foreign AffairsISIS Picked The Wrong Fight As Russia Hits 206 ISIS Targets In Syria After.. by scully95(op): 7:02pm On Nov 18, 2015
ISIS picked the wrong fight as Russia hits 206 ISIS targets in Syria after confirming bomb downed passenger plane over Sinai
On the day Moscow officially confirmed a terrorist attack as the cause of last month’s downing of a passenger plane in Egypt, the Russian military hit over 200 terrorist targets in Syria in 127 sorties.
The escalated Russian operation involved not only warplanes flying from an airfield near Latakia, but also strategic bombers operating from Russian territory.

On Tuesday, Russian warplanes conducted 127 sorties and hit 206 targets, a source in the Russian defense ministry told RT.
Russian strategic bombers such as Tu-22M3s, Tu-95MCs and Tu-160s were previously used for patrol missions as part of Russia’s nuclear deterrence. Their deployment in a conventional armed conflict marks an evolution in Russian military tactics.

It was also the first time Russia used in combat a new air-to-surface missile, KR Kh 101/102, which has been in service since 2012 but was not shown in public before. The missile can be seen inside a bomber bay in a video released by the defense ministry.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_ItAPHJSUU

Russian security forces confirmed that the passenger plane en route from Sharm el-Sheikh to St. Petersburg that crashed in Egypt’s Sinai on October 31 killing 224 people was downed by a bomb planted on board by terrorists. The group Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack right after the crash.
At a meeting with the head of the Russian Security Service (FSB), Vladimir Putin said that "the murder of our [Russian] nationals in Sinai is among the bloodiest crimes in [terms of] the number of casualties.” But Russia won’t be “wiping tears from our soul and heart,” he said. “This [tragedy] will stay with us forever. But this won’t stop us from finding and punishing the culprit.”

Vladimir Putin has vowed to find and punish the culprits behind the Sinai plane attack. “Our military work in Syria must not only continue, it must be strengthened in such a way so that the terrorists will understand that retribution is inevitable,” he said.
This week both Russia and the US-led coalition, which is conducting its own separate campaign against IS in Syria and Iraq, increased pressure on the terrorists in response to the spree of violence in Paris last Friday. The coalition reported conducting 20 sorties and hitting 14 targets on the same day.

Foreign AffairsPutin Vows Vengeance Against Those Who Brought Down Russian Plane In Egypt by scully95(op): 10:30am On Nov 17, 2015
President Putin promised to find those responsible for the Russian passenger plane crash in Egypt in any part of the world and exact revenge.

The announcement was made at a meeting at which the final results of the investigation into the causes of the tragedy were officially confirmed.

“It is not the first time Russia has faced these barbaric terrorist crimes, which often come without any visible reasons, internal or external, as was the case with terrorist act in Volgograd back in 2013. We haven't forgotten anything or anyone,”
said the President.

The President also added that the perpetrators of this attack will certainly be punished.

“We should pursue them without any statute of limitations and should know all of them by name. We will be looking for them wherever they would try to hide. We will find them in any part of the world and punish,”
he stressed.


On Tuesday Russia confirmed that the Airbus A321 with 224 people on board was brought down by a terrorist explosive device.
An investigation into the crash showed traces of an explosive material in personal items and parts of the plane.

Russia now offers $50mln for the information on those who might have been involved in the terrorist attack on the A321.

The aircraft went down on October 31 while en route from Egypt’s resort city of Sharm el-Sheikh to St. Petersburg, leaving no survivors.

Foreign AffairsBreaking News: Russia Confirms A321 Brought Down By Terrorist Homemade Explosive by scully95(op): 10:11am On Nov 17, 2015
An explosion of the homemade bomb of up to 1kg of TNT equivalent was the cause of the A321 crash in Sinai, Russian Security Service (FSB) head Alexander Bortnikov said.

“According to our specialists’ assessment, a homemade explosive device with an equivalent of 1 kilogram of TNT on board the aircraft exploded, which lead to the plane 'breaking up' in midair, which would explain the scattering of the plane’s fuselage across a wide area,” Bortnikov said during a meeting.

Russian Special Forces have determined the A321 passenger jet that crashed over Egypt’s Sinai Peninsula on October 31 killing all 224 on board was a terrorist act.

“We can definitely say this was a terrorist act,” Russian Federal Security Service head Alexander Bortnikov said during a meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Foreign AffairsWhy France? by scully95(op): 1:45am On Nov 17, 2015
First I wish to express my condolences to the families of all the victims of the terror attacks last week. No matter the reason for the attacks, there will always be innocent victims; those should be remembered.

What I write below are some stray thoughts on a question that has been bugging me since I heard the news regarding the attacks in Paris. Maybe I am completely off the mark here yet I keep wondering: Why all these attacks took place in France?

Why not Brussels or Amsterdam or London or Rome or Berlin?

Why France?

Yes, the French have been militarily involved in the “Arab Spring”; the Charles De Gaulle carrier has already been deployed once in the Gulf this year between 23/02/2015 and 18/04/2015 and the deployment starting on November 18th was scheduled well before the attacks in Paris took place.

As a side note, the US is deploying Harry S. Truman battle group (again, scheduled) but there are already rumours that the Truman group will not replace whatever is already there.

Moreover, France maintains in UAE 6 Rafale fighters and in Jordan 3 Mirage 2000D (strike version) and 3 Mirage 2000N (Nuclear strike version)

Note to readers: In France a “nuclear strike” capable fighter is any plane whose on-board avionics and software allows it to fire the Aerospatiale Air-Sol Moyenne Portee (ASMP) nuclear stand-off missile. Remove that software or do not load the missile and a M2000N is the same as a M2000D. All Rafale fighters have this capability as part of F3 standard.

Still these, militarily speaking, are on par with the other NATO members; UK flies sorties from RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus on an almost a daily basis and Belgium was heavily involved in NATO’s Libya campaign.

Yet all the major terrorist attacks (false flag or not all had the intent to cause terror among the populace to advance whatever political / religious / ideological agenda) in Europe this year took place in France:

07/01/2015 – Charlie Hebdo shooting in Paris
09/01/2015 – The hostage taking at the Kosher market in Porte De Vincennes
26/06/2015 – The attack and beheading at a factory in Saint-Quentin-Fallavier
21/08/2015 – Amsterdam – Paris train attack in Oignies, Pas-De-Calais
13/11/2015 – Paris attacks

As a matter of fact, no other major terrorist attack took place in a NATO / EU country this year. Either both French intelligence services and internal security are laughable (imagine three major terrorist attacks in Washington or Moscow or Beijing within a year) or something else is at play.

The only difference France has compared to any NATO member (bar USA) is that it is the only country which has a truly autonomous defense industry. It is the only country which can design and produce a fighter plane (Dassault Aviation), its engine (Snecma), its avionics, its radar (Thales) and its munition from bullets to cruise missiles (MBDA) all by itself. Same goes for shipbuilding. And because they develop everything, they get all the maintenance / upgrade contracts.

On November 5th, this article appeared on Aviation Week: Rafale Fighters Make Inroads Against U.S. Makers – Dassault wagers prospective Rafale exports will justify tripling supplier output

So, the year Rafale got its first ever export contract since its introduction in 2001 France in general and Paris in particular are witnessing attack upon attack.

As I said, these are stray thoughts and probably mean nothing but I can’t help wonder why France.
