For some reason @mod_russia bombed oil facilities under #Assad's control, labeled them as militant held.
Anyone have any ideas why???
TASS: Russian NATO envoy says Black Sea will never be "NATO’s lake"
http://www.unian.info/world/1360886-...atos-lake.html …
BUT Russian Navy can get multiple basing rights in the Med.....right?
MAYBE NATO should finally toss Russia out of being in the same building with NATO.....the NATO/Russian Basic Treaty is long dead....but then even if cancelled Russia will stay as they like the prestige and it offers them 40 spy positions inside NATO.

Wondering what @mod_russia will present this time in their attempts to claim the Idlib medical facilities weren't actually bombed.
BUT WAIT...the last time the Russian news media claimed it was an air strike by the JaN AF.......
They certainly cannot claim JaN was in the area as JaN has no presence at all in this area that was hit by the RuAF....although Russia will try hard to make the connection AND the Obama WH as usual will remain quiet....

REMEMBER that great Russian FM statement......
"If it acts like a terrorist, walks like a terrorist, fights like a terrorist, its a terrorist, right?" -@mfa_russia
Bombing hospitals, schools, mosques, markets & homes by #Assad_Putin is not terrorism according to world's governments & media!!
NOR the UNSC it seems......

Everyone hear the super quiet sound of crickets coming out of the Obama WH to this announcement.Originally Posted by OUTLAW 09
WHAT the Obama WH is not saying is that this is the public Turkish notice they will go it alone now that the US has fully sided with Russia if they feel it is necessary....the Russians threatened the Turks about entering BUT Russia has no military power on the ground to stop them and will not risk a war if they do cross into Syria "chasing and destroying IS"......
BTW...it was a not so subtle warning to the Kurdish YPG.....and the Russians were quick to defend the YPG when they complained of Turkish shelling's against their positions...
The Turkish government has now officially charged the Russians with supplying weapons to the PKK and the US proxy YPG is directly linked to PKK.....only one denying this linkage is in fact the US........
Turkey's President accuses Russia of arming PKK militants
http://read.bi/1PeLHnR
In other words Russia arms a terrorist proxy to wage war against a NATO member.

So who says the US is not conducting a common war together with Russia....
against the Syrian civil society......in the name of protecting their Kurdish proxy YPG which has proven ties to the terrorist group PKK...
US has ceded airspace bloc over idlib to regime, tacit exchange 4 non interference of US close air support 4 SDF

BUT WAIT supposedly JA took over the town in exchange for allowing Syrian civilians to flee the IS fighting around Marea.....
NOW that they control the Arab Sunni town they go back on their agreement for free passage of civilians.....
UN agency says Syria Kurds block civilians fleeing near Aleppo - Reuters
BUT WAIT the FSA attacks on YPG was in retaliation for their attacks on FSA....AND the vast areas that YPG control were won with Russian AF CAS and are Arab Sunni areas...never were so called "former Kurdish" even remotely in history.......Civilians fleeing an Islamic State offensive in northwestern Syria have been prevented by Syrian Kurdish authorities from entering areas under their control in response to rebel shelling of a Kurdish-held area of Aleppo, the United Nations said.
The civilians have been fleeing fighting between Syrian rebels and the Islamic State group that advanced into the opposition-held town of Marea at the weekend, a significant advance by the jihadists against Turkish-backed insurgents.
The United Nations has expressed concern about an estimated 8,000 Syrians trapped by fighting in northern Aleppo.
All the main parties to the Syrian war are fighting in the Aleppo area, and the Turkish-backed rebels who are battling Islamic State north of the city have also been involved in hostilities with the Syrian Kurdish YPG militia, which controls wide areas of territory to the west of Marea.
A situation update from the U.N. Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said about 2,000 people had managed to evacuate Marea and nearby Sheikh Issa, which were encircled by Islamic State on May 27.
"However, an estimated 7,000 civilians still remain inside and unable to leave due to restrictions imposed by Kurdish authorities," it added, saying that was a Kurdish response to rebel shelling of Aleppo's Kurdish-held Sheikh Maqsoud area.
Meanwhile, opposition authorities in the rebel-held town of Azaz near the Turkish border have issued a directive to not let in any more people fleeing Islamic State-held areas.
The court that issued the order cited fears of infiltration by covert Islamic State militants posing as internally displaced people (IDPs), after 8,000 IDPs arrived in Azaz, OCHA said.
Just when you think you have heard all of the Russian MoD lies about their air strikes against hospitals in Syria and especially the brutal eight strikes on a single hospital last night...they manage to outdo themselves again.....
Update
#Russia denies all responsibility, blames @SOHR and @Reuters for spreading "horror stories".
https://www.facebook.com/permalink.p...18362710&id=14... …
BUT "spreading horror stories" takes the prize...especially in the face of all the video evidence of a clear and concise night time air strike of which only the Russians can do and not the Assad AF.......

Wow...interesting as it is the truth.........they all even yesterday via NYTs expressed some "concerns if the rumors were true that Iran was leading the attacks"...remember "ALLEGED" rumors of Iranian involvement BUT at the same time did not seem to express the same "concern" for Iranian mercenaries, IRGC and Hezbollah troops in Syria.....HOW strange is that.....
Every side has acknowledged Shia militias are participating in Fallujah Operation except for the DoD, WH, & US media
AND US SOF is working with know terrorists in Syria the YPG and now supporting Shia militias with CAS and advisors....
One must admit at least they are supporting all sides FSA, YPG, Shia militia..., Iran....but definitely not supporting the local Arab Sunni's...
Explosions in #Daraya (what’s new) caused by many Assad IRAM rockets & artillery shelling, regime ground forces still trying to push in

Russian Today reporters deep in the Fallujah fighting..
As usual Russia today master of disinfo. Claimed Fallujah was liberated & reporter can't even raise his head above the barrier as the firing from IS had stopped the Iraqi shia militia attacks cold......
Full Russian annexation of Syria is now underway under the guise of democracy......

Russian constitution for Syria via Vladimir Ahmedov

Russian constitution for Syria
By Vladimir Ahmedov. Senior researcher in the Moscow based Institute of oriental Studies whose view don’t obligatory reflect the official position of the Institute.August will mark the beginning for the implementation of the transitional rule in Syria. Besides other matters, a core issue of this above mentioned process is the adoption of a new Constitution for Syria.
Some leaks in Arab and European press and social network indicate some peculiar aspects of the draft constitutional project pushed by Moscow and Washington.
According to those leaks(Al-Akhbar newspaper) Al-Assad stripped from most of his legislative and executive authorities.
Syria looses its Arab and Islamic identity, turning into a federation where the borders are set according to ethnic and sectarian considerations.
Syrian army is not to be implicated in any future wars outside the Syrian lands.
Thus the first article of the 2012 Constitution refers to Syria as the Syrian Republic instead of the Arab Syrian republic.
The third article, which indicates that Islam is the state’s religion and that Islamic jurisprudence is the main source of legislation is simply dropped in a new redaction.
Arab and Kurdish languages set as the two official state languages regardless the fact that Kurds represent no more than 25-27% of the total Syrian population.
The fact that the Kurdish forces will play a major role in freeing Reqqa and Mosul will not come without a price.
Adopting decentralization as a basis for the ruling system and giving wide powers to the regions’ parliaments that were dubbed “areas’ administrations.
So no wonder that in this new draft the term “People’s Council” is replaced with “People’s Association”.
While the armed forces is subjected to the president, the appointment of the prime minister and the ministers must take into account the relative representation of all the religious and ethnic groups.
In other words this very fact of changing the administrative system means in reality the consolidation of sectarianism within the ruling system.
In fact if this project is implemented, it will turn Syria in a sectarian and ethnic state, dropping the original and global Syrian national identity, breaking Syria’s ties with the Arab and Islamic world and banning any role in confronting the Israeli in occupied territories in Palestine, Syria and Lebanon.
There is no new thoughts and bright ideas in this project. Once, it was sketched and forced onto the neighbor Iraq. And now we have a weak, dismantled, unstable Iraq with no global national identity and the place where ISIS was born and feel itself rather comfortable and aggressive.
Being implemented this project, may constitute the real threat for all region by giving start to the partitioning and dismantlement plans in global dimensions.
Regarding the Russian geopolitical position and its closeness to this region (apart to America), it may pose a real threat to the Russian security interests and its territorial integrity in near future.
I can understand Americans who did the same in Iraq and failed there. May be it is for this simple reason they don’t like this country. But I hardly understand Russia who reportedly succeeded in Syria
http://arabesky.livejournal.com/173765.html
Russia is now demanding that Turkey withdraw her troops from Iraq. It's about sovereignty for Moscow. Just as they threatened Turkey if it sent troops across the border chasing IS and PKK.
Except in Ukraine.
And Syria.
AND the Iranians seem to be missing from this Russian demand....
