| Topic: Russian warships cross Bosphorus, en route to Syria | |

1 hour ago Three Russian warships crossed Turkey's Bosphorus Strait Thursday en route to the eastern Mediterranean, near the Syrian coast, amid concern in the region over potential US-led strikes in response to the Damascus regime's alleged use of chemical weapons. The SSV-201 intelligence ship Priazovye, accompanied by the two landing ships Minsk and Novocherkassk passed through the Bosphorus known as the Istanbul strait that separates Asia from Europe, an AFP photographer reported. The Priazovye on Sunday started its voyage from its home port of Sevastopol in Ukraine "to the appointed region of military service in the eastern Mediterranean", a military official told the Interfax news agency. Russia, a key ally of Damascus, has kept a constant presence of around four warships in the eastern Mediterranean in the Syrian crisis, rotating them every few months. It also has a naval base in the Syrian port of Tartus whose origins date back to Moscow's close relationship with Damascus under the Soviet Union. Moscow vehemently opposes the US-led plans for military action against the regime of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in response to the chemical attack outside Damascus last month. Russian President Vladimir Putin warned on Wednesday that any US Congress approval for a military strike against Syria without UN consensus would represent an "aggression". I'm not comfortable with Obama at the helm of our ship. |

And in Russia, videos first shown on television there on June 16th are being shown again of Syrian rebels using Sarin gas to fire at Syrian army personnel. Some of the videos also show the Syrian rebels with stockpiles of various chemicals being fired on Syrian troops. Some labels on the gas containers are rather clear and in both Arabic and English from Saudi Arabia.
Meanwhile here on this side: Zero; nothing even hinting at this or any such videos which are now on U Tube and other sites that one can find via Google, to see "the other side of the picture". There are ALWAYS 2-3 sides: their side versus them and 'the truth'. Even the UN has findings that the 'good-guys/ rebels' have indeed used gas on the Syrian army as a ploy to have them retaliate in kind...the fun of making 'propaganda wars'; one needs either "A Dummies Guide" or an "Idiots Guide to Making Phony War Propaganda Wars"... And nw, of course, the rebels are trying to deny that they made the videos of themselves using Sarin and Chlorine gas shells...hey, they are desperate to get US help; isn't it logical that many rebels are El Quaida and wouldn't hesitate to gas their own allies in other rebel factions to then accuse the Syrian army/ Hassad of this? Makes sense to me...oh what the news isn't showing...

Makes sense to me...oh what the news isn't showing... Most of the rebels aren't even Syrian, but rather Al Nusra fighters (Al Queada terrorists) from Iraq (we did so well with that fiasco didn't we? Handed Iraq to Al Queada when there was none there before!). Do you believe they would hesitate to gas Syrians if they thought doing so would make Obozo blow his cookies for an attack against Assad.....making their job or objective easier? I think not! Obozo needs to get the war machine advisors and the banks out of his ear! |

Russian Navy Massing Additional Warships Near Syria: Moscow Talks Counter-US Attack Military Plans http://www.conservativerefocus.com/blog5.php/2013/09/06/russian-navy-massing-warships-near-syria-moscow-talks-counter-us-attack-military-plans And our Idiot in chief, against the will of the people, and most in congress, is still considering an attack siting "limited scope". I ask you, does the depiction on this map look like the map of a limited scope scenario?   Russia may not be the world power they once were, but their military arsenal is still 2nd only to ours, and then throw in the addition of the Chinese capabilities who are also against a Syrian strike..... Mr president, I don't think your race card will work on these two! |

Traumer You make more sense than most on these Forums. Awww shucks...blush This afternoon I finally found one official news site and an actual news broadcast from the CBC Canada that did say Russian naval ships are on their way to Syria!! So far only sites and programs in the Middle East are mentioning that while on this side, not a word, This started me thinking that perhaps the Russians could cause the US plans to stop dead and cause your fearless leader to back off from possibly escalating this to where no one in their right mind wants to go; namely dock the Russian naval ships at Syrian ports and take the risk of giving the Russian sailors shore leave, taking the gamble that the US will not fire and possibly kill Russian sailors and marines and damaging their naval ships. If the situation was reversed, would 'OBAMACARE'...couldn't resist that. Lebanese news and TV are warning that the Russian naval ships are arriving and this could lead to toe-to toe confrontation with the US Navy if their ships are targeted...lovely Last time US naval and Russian naval forces came close to each other was during the Cuban blockade, if I recall and there were a few 'near collisions'...were are the news camera crews hiding...

Checking the above noted link to the Russian Naval forces all they are showing is the usual chess board set up if not, the old Battleship game board, but hey, at least something is there and from a 'conservative' website!
This is tarting to remind me of the old movie "Dr. Strangelove"...Perhaps a new version could be made out of this very bizarre situation: US naval forces haven't a clue that the Russian Navy is fast approaching because all US news media is blocking any news about them...(Everyone knows that US forces only listen to Fox News and they aren't saying anything about Russian ships is the premise. Add to that, the Southern Baptist Convention as ordered all Communications personnel to block anything about Russian naval ships from the Pentagon in case it upsets the US Navy. (As yesterday, they have told all their Chaplins in the US armed forces to refuse and not perform any Gay marriages...talk about 'undue influence...)Watchers on decks and on radars aboard US ships spot a large formation of ships coming toward them; the Admirals, Captains etc. including the Admiral's cook,(played by, who else but, Steven Seagal, reenlisted as he was in the ilm, "Under Siege"; the Admiral played by Liam Neeson from the film Battleship)The lookouts determine that it is really several tourist size Italian Gondolas that have drifted away from their canals in Venice and are ignored. Next thing that they become aware of are the sudden appearance of Russian warships of their port bow, their decks full of cheering and waiving Russian sailors and marines ...the Americans sound 'General Quarters' as the Russians pass them sailing into Syrian ports...now we can drop in some cameos of Rihanna coing some table dancing in a Damascus night-club; her boyfriend, played by Taylor Kitch, also from the film Battleship plays a jealous Navy Seal that jumps ship to find her...add more cameos of the 3 stooges , al Jolson in Blackface and some of the stars of Amos and Andy TV show all playing Obamarama's advisors, etc. and we may out do Dr. Strangelove and go for including the famous rocket blastoff'f from Woody Allen's film "Everything You've Always Wanted to Know About Sex But Were Afraid To Ask"...that launch is a classic... Apologies, but I just had to write this down as the spirit moved me....

quote"The reality of the consequences is indeed a frightening contemplation.
I am glad some are able to find humor in it" Humour is all we have in this world of perpetual wars and strife, be it 'black humour' or not. It helps us cope with all that we are faced with; front line combat or their impact on our respective lives and levels of sanity. Most often it is the only outlook to develop. maintain and celebrate while actually fighting in a war; it keeps you relatively sane. I quickly learned that in my first one in Biafra. My CO upon seeing hundreds of Nigerian paratroops coming down on us, simply remarked "Now they're using air pollution against us." Every one cracked up...we lived through another horrific day. Laughter is indeed, the best thing to have . |
