China Joins Russia In Warning Syria Strike Would Have "Catastrophic Consequences"

QuoteUntil now, the loudest and most material opponent to a Syrian invasion by the "liberating" powers was Russia. Moments ago, China joined the anti-western axis. BBC reports: "Russia and China have stepped up their warnings against military intervention in Syria, with Moscow saying any such action would have "catastrophic consequences" for the region."

More:

    Earlier, UK Foreign Secretary William Hague told the BBC an international military response to the suspected use of chemical weapons would be possible without the backing of the UN.

     

    The UN Security Council is divided, with Russia and China opposing military intervention and the UK and France warning that the UN could be bypassed if there was "great humanitarian need".

     

    In a column in The Times newspaper, former UK PM Tony Blair has written that if the West does not intervene to support freedom and democracy in Egypt and Syria, the Middle East will face catastrophe

     

    The UN says more than 100,000 people have been killed since the uprising against President Assad began more than two years ago. The conflict has produced more than 1.7 million registered refugees.

Adding to the picture, Interfax reported moments ago that representatives of Russia and China have left a UN Security Council session on Syria. And since both countries have UN veto power, just like back in 2012 when this whole scenario was being replayed, there can be not joint UN resolution.

Which means if the US wants an invasion, it will have to do it away from the UN, further cementing the UN's role as the world's most irrelant organization. Of course, it also means that the PR selling of such an invasion to a gullible public will be just that much more difficult, and the TV spin machine will be working on overtime.

Finally, just to make sure that should the Nobel Peace Prize winner begin a war (without Congress or the UN of course) it would be of the "world" variety, earlier today Japan promptly aligned itself with the insolvent west:

Iran's PressTV Reports US Troops Mobilized Along Jordan-Syria Border

QuoteWhen it comes to the accuracy of its reporting, PressTV is somewhere just left (or right) of Debka, so take this with a metric ton of salt. However, it bears reporting on the off chance it is accurate. From PressTV:

    US troops backed by tanks and fighter jets have been mobilized along the Jordan-Syria border, as the West appears to be moving toward military action against Damascus, reports say.

That said, we would wait for confirmation from at least SyriaNow before lending much if any credibility to this report.

Russian anti-terror troops reportedly enter Syria

QuoteReports of Russian anti-terror troops on the ground in Syria is raising new concerns about whether Russia's policies are indirectly, or even directly, enabling the brutal crackdown on Syrian protesters.

Russia's Defense Ministry acknowledged Monday that the navy's Iman oil tanker arrived at the Syrian port of Tartus 10 days ago on a mission to assist Russian navy ships on anti-piracy patrols in the Gulf of Aden and "for demonstrating the Russian presence in the turbulent region and possible evacuation of Russian citizens," the Black Sea Fleet told Interfax news agency.

A ministry spokesman would not say how many troops are on board, but Russian news reports suggest a more active military presence in Syria.

Interesting, since Beck is an Israel firster, you would think he would be all on board with this attack...after all, this will give Israel the OK to nuke Iran.

Russia Is Evacuating Its Citizens From Syria

QuoteWith 'drums' growing ever-louder, Russia's "emergency situations" ministry has sent a second aircraft to evacuate citizens willing to leave war-torn Syria.

As RiaNovosti reports, "an Ilyushin-62 plane took off for Latakia. This special flight is for Russian and CIS nationals who had earlier expressed their determination to return to Moscow," emergencies ministry spokeswoman Irina Rossius said. The plane also bore humanitarian aid for, what a Russian foreign ministry spokesman said at the time was, about 30,000 other Russians that were still living across the country.

QuoteGlobal Research is publishing this article, while emphasizing that there are several elements of this report which require corroboration. (GREditor)

by Mac Slavo

While the media panicked over the halting of NASDAQ stock trading due to a reported bug in the system (more on that shortly), one critical development went under-reported. In fact, it wasn't reported at all.

If the following from France's second largest newspaper Le Figaro is accurate, then we must assume that war is now a foregone conclusion.

    According to our information, the regime's opponents, supervised by Jordanian, Israeli and American commandos moving towards Damascus since mid-August. This attack could explain the possible use of the Syrian president to chemical weapons.

    According to information obtained by Le Figaro , the first trained in guerrilla warfare by the Americans in Jordan Syrian troops reportedly entered into action since mid-August in southern Syria, in the region of Deraa. A first group of 300 men, probably supported by Israeli and Jordanian commandos, as well as men of the CIA, had crossed the border on August 17. A second would have joined the 19. According to military sources, the Americans, who do not want to put troops on the Syrian soil or arming rebels in part controlled by radical Islamists form quietly for several months in a training camp set up at the border Jordanian- Syrian fighters ASL, the Free Syrian Army, handpicked.

Israel calls up reservists over Syrian threat

QuoteJERUSALEM (AP) -- Israel ordered a special call-up of reserve troops Wednesday as nervous citizens lined up at gas-mask distribution centers, preparing for possible hostilities with Syria.

With the U.S. threatening to attack Syria over its alleged use of chemical weapons, Israel fears that Syria may respond by firing missiles at Israel, a close American ally. While Israeli officials sought to distance themselves from Syria's standoff with the West and believe the chances of a Syrian strike remain slim, people were clearly preparing for the possibility.

UN To US: Wait 4 Days For Team To Complete Investigation


QuoteThe United Nations is calling on the United States and its allies to wait longer on a potential military strike against Syria.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said Wednesday that a team of U.N. chemical weapons inspectors needs a total of four days to complete its investigation into an alleged chemical weapons attack in Damascus in which Syrian activists say 1,300 people were killed.

"It is essential to establish the facts. A U.N. investigation team is now on the ground to do just that. Just days after the attack, they have collected valuable samples and interviewed victims and witnesses. The team needs time to do its job," Ban said, according to CBS News, adding that a report needs to be sent to the U.N. Security Council.

Would a Syria run by Al Qaeda be a good neighbour for Israel?

If all hell breaks loose and the USA loses an aircraft carrier or other ship in this, will the people in this country finally stop supporting 0bama? What would it take for this jerk's approval rating to go into single digits?

Because they are militarily ineffectual, disjointed and are prone to infighting.
