    #BREAKING France rejects Russian UN text on Syria, slams 'dangerous' escalation

    LET's see if the US states anything similar to what they French are saying....probably not even though UNSC US Ambassador has been muzzled by the WH for literally months now on Ukrainian issues.

    Turkey’s PM says that #Russia continues behaving like a terrorist organization & forcing civilians to flee #Syria.

    Turkey has right to self-defense against terrorism, Obama tells Erdoğan

    US President Barack Obama called Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan on Friday to offer condolences for a bomb attack in Turkish capital Ankara on Wednesday that killed at least 28 people, the White House said.

    The US president voiced his concerns over the PYD/YPG's recent advance in northern Syria to Erdoğan and said he called on the Kurdish group to immediately stop its actions that creating tensions with Turkey and Syrian opposition and undermining fight against Daesh, the Turkish presidential sources said.

    Obama also told Erdoğan that the US is determined to keep supporting its NATO ally, Turkey and underlined the country's right of self defence.

    In a daily press briefing with reporters, White House spokesman Josh Earnest said more details on the call would be released later Friday.

    The two leaders also discussed the situation in Syria during the phone call which took one hour 20 minutes, Turkish presidential sources said.

    Turkey was shaken by a deadly car bombing that rocked Ankara on Wednesday, killing 28 people and injuring 81. The attack was carried out by a Syrian national named Saleh Nejar, 24, who was born in Syria's Hasakah province.

    Turkish authorities have detained 17 suspects in operations carried out across the country. The PYD and its YPG are largely accepted as the Syrian affiliate of the PKK, which is recognized as a terror organization by the U.S., EU and NATO.

    Russian Draft resolution on Turkish "Plans For Foreign Ground Intervention Into Syria"

    at 3:21 PM

    The Security Council,

    Recalling its resolutions 2170 (2014), 2178 (2014), 2199 (2015), 2249 (2015) and 2254 (2015),

    Reaffirming its strong commitment to the sovereignty, independence, unity and territorial integrity of the Syrian Arab Republic, and to the purposes and principles of the Charter of the United Nations,

    Strongly condemning continued cross-border shelling of the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic as well as incessant flow of foreign terrorist fighters, the incursion of military personnel and the illegal movement of weapons and related materiel in contravention of its relevant resolutions and with complicity or direct involvement of some States including Syria's neighbors,

    Expressing its grave alarm at the reports of military buildup and preparatory activities aimed at launching foreign ground intervention into the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic,

    Reiterating that the only sustainable solution to the current crisis in Syria is through an inclusive and Syrian-led political process as set forth in its resolution 2254, the Joint Statement on the outcome of the multilateral talks on Syria in Vienna of 30 October 2015 and the Statements of the International Syria Support Group of 14 November 2015 and 12 February 2016,

    1. Strongly demands to fully respect the sovereignty of the Syrian Arab Republic and immediately halt any cross-border shelings and incursions as well as abandon all attempts or plans for foreign ground intervention into the Syrian territory,

    2. Demands to refrain from provocative rhetoric and inflammatory statements inciting further violence and interference into internal affairs of the Syrian Arab Republic,

    3. Reaffirms that all States shall prevent and suppress the flow of foreign terrorist fighters and the illegal movement of weapons and related materiel into the territory of the Syrian Arab Republic,

    4. 4. Decides that all States shall commit to and unconditionally implement the provisions of its resolution 2254 (2015) in order to facilitate the efforts aimed at bringing an end to the Syrian conflict.

    5. 5. Decides to remain actively seized of the matter.
    Amazing that the exact things Russia accuses Turkey of doing they are tonight doing the same thing in eastern Ukraine AND yet the Obama WH says nothing similar in the UNSC since 2014.......

    KSA now showing their Islamic Army leadership .....they view the Lebanon to be an Iran lite......their own version of KSA non linear warfare hard at work....

    [BREAKING/EXCLUSIVE] Top GCC source to me just now: Saudi and UAE are about to withdraw their funds from Lebanese Central Bank.

    NNA - Commenting on Saudi Arabia's decision to halt its aids to the Lebanese army and security forces, "Lebanese Forces" chief Samir Geagea on Friday held Hezbollah responsible for "losing billions of dollars" as a result of its permanent attack on Saudi Arabia.

    Geagea called in a tweet on the government to instantly convene to take the appropriate measures in this regard, either through officially asking Hezbollah to desist from attacking the Kingdom from now on, or to dispatch an official delegation to the Kingdom to ask Saudi Arabia to activate once more its frozen aids.

    The hypocrisy of the Russians is amazing. The reasons they quote for protecting territorial borders are the same ones they broke with Ukraine.

    Yet they ignore that do they not???

    Same exact tactics they pulled in the other Arab areas they took over.....and they have been as well accused by HWR and AI of ethnically cleansing Arabs from the villages YPG takes over.

    Some more info on that "great US proxy" that made them look like fools....

    FYI: Assad's regime just said YPG is pretty much a unit in the Syrian army.
    Here's @brett_mcgurk w a YPG rep.

    JaT has also 300 fighters in Tal Abyad. The de facto leader is Salah Jabbo from Jabhat al Akrad. JaT is financed by USA being part of SDF

    Jaysh Al thuwar in Efrin is composed of nearly 1000 members. 300 Jabhat al Krad (Kurds) 100 Salajeqa group (Turkmans) 600 mainly SRF (Arabs)

    Kurdish militant group #TAK claims #Ankara bombing - ends with “Biji Serok Apo!” reference to #PKK leader Ocalan:

    Ocalan was used by #Assads father as terror card against #Turkey.
    Then he was sold to #Turks, when suited him.

    So again is the US actually supporting a known US/EU/NATO declared "Kurdish terrorist group" in the name of fighting another "terrorist group"??

    Default F-15 strike Libya from the UK

    Well, well clarity:
    One of the masterminds behind last summer's massacre of British tourists in Tunisia is believed to have been killed in a US bombing raid on an Islamic State (Isil) camp in Libya......US F-15 Strike Eagle jets carried out the raid from RAF Lakenheath in Suffolk. Michael Fallon, the Defence Secretary, authorised the use of a British base on Thursday, while travelling back from the Falklands via Ascension Island.
    Mr Fallon said: "I welcome this strike that has taken out a Daesh training camp being used to train terrorists to carry out attacks. I was satisfied that its destruction makes us all safer, and I personally authorised the US use of our bases.”

    Remember the US DoS and the DoD both publicly stated this week when directly asked "their Kurdish proxy YPG is not getting Assad and Russian CAS"....it's publicly available to be reread ....

    WHY because it is simply "unthinkable that an Obama, CIA and CENTCOM" project could have run off the geo political rails so badly......

    Social media is carrying now daily confirmed evidence that basically shows that either the fog of war has blinded both the US DoS and DoD OR they are badly lying........

    Syria'n regime dropped barrel bombs with helicopters on northern #Aleppo housing complexes to support kurdish #YPG attacks
    http://wikimapia.org/#lang=de&lat=36...44432&z=15&m=b

    These barrel bombs came immediately after a series of RuAF air strikes (videoed) on the exact FSA positions that YPG was actively attacking.....

    THAT is not coordination???? So the US cannot be lying right??

    BUT WAIT US info warfare hard at work right???
