Syria: Déjà vu

by Kakaouskia
Greetings to the Saker community and readers.
Let us imagine that we are tasked with producing a sequel to the 1990s masterpiece “First Gulf war”, this time to be filmed in Syria.
We will definitely need a villain; lucky for us we have two: Vladimir Putin and Bashar Al Assad. Throw in a criminal organisation – let’s call them ISIS – for good measure and the cast is ready as the good guys are again the same. This is after all part of the franchise.
Now for the plot. Hmm, first we need drama. How it was done the first time? Ah yes, the Nayirah testimony at the UN. This time though Nayirah got a bit old to be a protagonist, so we should useNadia Murad to testify.
Also how about a hospital bombing? Perhaps two? How about five on a single day? I have a better idea – how about showing a video of babies in incubators suffering?
If all the above sound familiar, then you are not mistaken. The events of the last 48 hours in Syria leave a bitter case of Deja vu to anyone old enough to remember how support was rallied for the First Gulf war.

Who needs war with peace like this?

Comment by Larchmonter445

To all who predict the inevitable war, wherever your mind thinks it will transpire:
It is a requirement of that prediction to tell us what the Order of Battle shall be.
For instance, China attacked by the US.
Or, Turkey and US/NATO/Arabs with oil attacking Russia.
Or, Turkey and the nazis of Ukraine attacking Russia.
Or, some Israeli (Zio-whatever you want) false flag attack that results in attacking Russia.
Please tell us how the war gets going with planes? with missiles? with sub? with carriers and destroyers?

Actor Mike Odiachi passes on At The Hospital


The whole Nollywood , members from TAMPPAN and group of performer on-screen character Mike Odiachi, have been tossed in mourning as the capable on-screen character kicked the bucket the previous evening, Monday, February 15, 2016.
We gathered that Odiachi passed on at the General Hospital in Ikorodu.
The late Mike Odiachi was clearly one of the best in delivering his roles, which majors as King or elders in council.
In the act of the theater, he was honest to goodness, genuine, engaged, disciplined,respectful and respected. He was earnest to the calling, and consistent with himself.
He'll be most likely missed by all artists and screen performers that is got a chance to work with the late incredible on-screen character.

Russia Means Bussiness, Deploys Its Most Advanced Spyplane to Syria

The Tu-214R
'The Turks and Saudis know they will face humiliating defeat if they invade unless they can somehow "force" the US/NATO to come to the rescue of aggressors who support terrorists in a proposition where the US knows that Syria and Russia have already beat ISIS. Even the stupid greedy neocons in Washington can see that this is a gambit to get the US to do the fighting for these incompetent, corrupt cowards. The US government may be incompetent, corrupt and cowardly, but the people in military intelligence must be feeding the generals some very bad news: The Russians hold all the cards and they keep playing them exceptionally well.'

Earth’s current rotation shoots us through space at 1040 miles per hour.

If You Believe These 3 Lies About $ex, You’ll Struggle To Find Love

Is s3xual liberation working against us?
Are you looking for true love?
If the answer is yes, but you’re having casual s3x with one or more partners, you have a choice to make: carry on having casual s3x or focus on finding true love?
This isn’t about being a virgin bride, nor is it about any moral questions surrounding s3x outside of marriage, women’s rights or s3xual freedom. Rather, it’s an honest review of casual s3x for women in the 21st century and it’s impact on her search for true love.
Let’s assume you’re reading this because you’re looking for true love — GREAT!
But, what if you like s3x and don’t see why this should prevent you from finding true love?
The reality is that s3xual freedom has backfired for many women. A recent report suggests that 1 in 5 women born in 1969 are childless today compared to 1 in 9 born in 1942.
