"Residents of the Syrian province of Idlib called the Russian Center for Reconciliation of Opposing Sides in Syria warning about upcoming provocation by the White Helmets organization. According to the residents, a convoy of six cars with White Helmets emblems and a truck, loaded with individual protection equipment, visual equipment and seven rockets, as well as with canisters filled with liquids, arrived in the city of Idlib on Sunday," Tsygankov said.
The general added that upon arrival, four unknown individuals had been loading rockets’ warheads with liquid and powder. The truck took the missiles in the direction of the city of Maarat al-Numan and was later followed by the White Helmets convoy.
http://militarynews.ru/story.asp?rid=1&nid=484869Moscow. June 28th. Interfax-AVN - The withdrawal of Russian troops from Syria continues, in recent days, 13 planes and 1140 personnel left this country, Russian President Vladimir Putin said.
"As you know, we began the withdrawal of our units during my visit to the base station of Khmeimim, this conclusion continues today," he said on Thursday at a reception in honor of graduates of military universities in the Kremlin.
"Only in the last few days 13 aircraft, 14 helicopters, 1140 personnel have been withdrawn," the president added.
"All of them are people who have been experienced and tested by fighting, and you, your colleagues, together with them, will have to make full use of this experience for the combat training of personnel here on the territory of the Russian Federation, in order to work out the most complex, non-standard tasks during sudden checks , strategic and tactical exercises, "Putin said.
One could imagine Putin offering Assad a deal designed to restore him as the ruler of all of Syria. First, he would need to assure Trump during their upcoming meeting that Assad’s offensive in the southwest will soon conclude, and that he would send in Russian forces to enforce a de-escalation zone. In return, he would ask Trump to quickly move U.S. forces out of Syria, allowing him to declare victory. Once the Americans had put Syria in their rear-view mirror, Putin might offer Assad and the Iranians the right to occupy oil-rich eastern Syria, with an assurance that Russian and Syrian forces will gradually reclaim the southwest, piece by piece.
President Trump might be tempted to take such a deal—a temptation worth resisting. A nearly four-year effort against Islamist extremism would be wasted, as undisciplined Iranian-led militiamen and rapacious regime gunmen occupy an area rich in petroleum and agricultural resources. The alternative—proper stabilization, starting with the rebuilding of Raqqa, the former capital of ISIS—will be neither easy nor quick. Allies and partners will be needed. But giving in to Russia may render all of Syria ungovernable for decades, giving ISIS 2.0 and its enablers a life-saving and gratuitous victory.

Because Isreal is the world's only Jewish state, and because their unabashed goal is to spread Islamic chaos worldwide. This is a goal shared and advanced by Jews worldwide. Muslims talk of an "Ummah" but it's the Jews who really put their money where there mouth is, when it comes to tribalism in the sense of putting your tribe ahead of everyone else including the nation you live in.

A group of unidentified drones has been shot down by Russia’s Air Defense units near Khmeimim Air Base in Syria, the Russian MoD has announced. No damage to the facility was reported.
The objects were detected north-east from the military facility on Saturday, the base’s authorities said. “All aerial targets were destroyed,” they confirmed. The military, however, stopped short of naming exact weapon systems which were used to bring down the drones.
How many times are the Russians going to withdraw from Syria? They've already "pulled out" on at least two occasions. Are they trying to embolden their enemies by appearing weak and indecisive, in order to trick them into fighting harder and getting themselves killed? Very Chankian.Austin wrote:Russia continues to withdraw troops from Syria, over the last few days it left more than 1 thousand people and 13 aircraft - Putin

My complaint with Israel, and Jews in general, is they've taken the wrong side in this global clash of civilizations. Collectively, Jews work to advance Islamic ideology because it perversely serves their interests. The goals: get everyone at war with Islam, get every nation in the ME mired in Islamic violence, and overthrow every moderate muslim regime, the very regimes whose very moderation threatens to make the neighborhood more peaceful. This is the same reason Jews, who control the entire western media and political establishments, seek to flood Europe with muslims and why they work to encourage muslim violence in India and destabilze us. The Jews, within Isreal and without, are no allies of India. They want the same fate for us as Syria, Libya, Iraq, etc.
Isreali policy is indistinguishable from Saudi policy, and their goals are the same.
There is some ambiguity about this. Israel does not have a full constitution like we do. What it does have is a comprehensive list of Basic Laws which kind of function as a constitution.Lisa wrote: Israel is NOT a Jewish nation. Judaism is NOT its state religion.

(AhlulBayt News Agency) - An American investigative journalist and political writer has implicated Saudi Arabia and Turkey in the deadly 2013 chemical attack in the Damascus suburb of Ghouta.
A US intelligence report confirmed that Saudi Arabia and Turkey were providing al-Nusra Front terrorists with the basic chemicals used for sarin gas, Seymour Hersh told Russia’s RT television network on Saturday.
The sarin gas used in the Ghouta gas attack “was not the same as in the Syrian military,” he added.
“The government knew from this very important intelligence report … that there were two suspects – al-Nusra had the stuff and Syria had the stuff. Forget about having it analyzed – they knew right away and they only talked about one,” Hersh said.
Western countries held the Syrian government responsible for the Ghouta assault that killed hundreds of people in August 2013 without any evidence.
A UN report said the substance concerned was the nerve agent sarin and the delivery system was ground-to-ground rockets.
Syria surrendered its entire chemical stockpile in 2013 to a mission led by the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) and the UN.
US ship brings chemicals to region
Separately on Sunday, a senior spokesman for the Iranian armed forces said that the US Navy’s Cape Ray vessel carrying chemicals had docked at the coast of one of the Persian Gulf countries.
Brigadier General Abolfazl Shekarchi said the ship had recently been escorted into the region by an American warship.
The chemicals carried by the US ship are meant to be transferred to parts of Iraq and Syria, he said, warring of the possible consequences of such efforts.
“After suffering consecutive blows by the resistance front, the Americans have now resorted to dangerous ways to continue their presence in Iraq and Syria and justify their illegitimate presence in the region,” Shekarchi said.
The news proves that chemical attacks in Iraq and Syria have been engineered and led by the Americans, he added.
The Western countries have used the alleged gas attacks in Syria as a pretext to target military positions inside the Arab country.
Semantics. Who cares what their constitution says? The overt "Jewishness" of Isreal doesn't really matter anyway. My problem with Isreal and int'l Jewry isn't that they're too Jewish. Far from it, actually. My problem is they've joined the worst branch of Islam (Sunni Takfiri/Wahabbi expanionists), the same variety of Islam we've been fighting for as long as anyone can remember. The fact is Isreal backs ISIS and the other militant groups in Syria and Iraq. They back Saudi Arabia in Yemen. Jewish controlled western media does the same.Lisa wrote:Israel is NOT a Jewish nation.

Iraq, Saudi Arabia, ISIS and Iran are all constitutionally muslim entities where islam is the state religion, yet you do not care to use the same excuse to refer to them by their faiths for bracketing them by faith seems lost to you. A man called General Jacobs worked in the Indian Army and if he were alive you would say to him what you have said above in reference to his faith, I think not.
My last post on this matter.
P.S. Don't write back to say that General Jacobs was an exception.
A preliminary report published Friday by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) found no traces of any nerve agent at the site of a suspected chemical attack in the Syrian city of Douma. The OPCW report states this unambiguously as follows: "No organophosphorous nerve agents or their degradation products were detected in the environmental samples or in the plasma samples taken from alleged casualties."
Golan Heights is a basaltic plateau, with a pop. density of 36/sq km [Israel has an average pop. density of 387/sq. km]. The biggest settlement in Golan heights is Majdal Shams, a Druze settlement. Does this look fertile to you? The Syrian side of the Golan is equally desolate.habal wrote:Philip, Israel's plan is to expand into fertile areas of Syria like golan etc for its own citizens, not palestinians. That is why they are backing isis. So isis first creates instability and defeats status-quo power. Israel/usa defeats isis because 'hey it is a terrorist power' and it is the right thing to do no. And then expand into areas depopulated by isis but have good water supply, fertile areable land, good climate. So they will never want peace with Syria.

------The cabinet has authorized a proposal to establish 750 farming estates in the disputed Golan Heights over the next five years, the Agriculture and Rural Development Ministry announced.
As part of the plan, 30,000 dunams (7,400 acres) of land will be converted for agricultural use near existing settlements, the Water Authority will formulate a framework for the development of a water system in the Golan in response to the needs that arise from the agricultural plan, and the Defense Ministry will work to clear minefields in the areas that will be developed as part of the plan.Residents of the Golan rely heavily on agriculture as a source of income, and this decision comes with the goal of expanding employment opportunities for them and creating anchors that will strengthen the communities on the Golan,” Agriculture Minister Yair Shamir, who proposed the plan with Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, said in a statement posted to his Facebook page.
