| Russia and China have strongly opposed the US in Syria and Iran. |
Syria Cease-Fire Unlikely After Cross-Border Attacks: a quick end to the violence looked dim after Syrian forces opened fire across two tense borders the day before. The violence killed a television cameraman in Lebanon and at least two people at a refugee camp in Turkey.
Clashes as Syria deadline arrives: Shelling was reported in Homs early on Tuesday, and there were clashes on the Turkish and Lebanese border overnight. More than 100 people - many of them civilians - were killed on Monday, reports say. Damascus had agreed to the deadline but insisted on written guarantees first that its opponents would give up arms.
Syria is battleground for Russia and US: Under Putin, Moscow's objections to foreign interventions in the Middle East will grow. A Sunni-Shiite standoff in the region will complicate issues. The winds of a second Cold War are blowing across the Middle East, more than two decades after the collapse of the Berlin Wall and the ensuing unravelling of the Soviet Union.
This time Moscow is looking to reassert its role and influence in a Middle East that is polarised along new geopolitical divides, initially created as a result of direct US military intervention in Iraq eight years ago and deepening later following the tumultuous Arab Spring in 2011. The battleground for the new confrontation between Russia and the United States is Syria, which has been embroiled in a popular anti-regime uprising for more than a year. Moscow has adopted a tough line in support of its old and last ally in the Arab world. Well no shit dick tracy, you're a little slow here and it is much worse than this. Why do you think Putin stole his way back in as President in the first place?
Russia's weapons are being used to slaughter the people and they brag about it. Those are the only weapons Russia will allow. French President Nicolas Sarkozy likened Syrian leader Bashar Assad to a "murderer" while Russia said it was arming his regime enabling him to slaughter his people
The Syrian people are being sacrificed in this the opening volley not just in the middle east but in the world against US hegemony! That is the only reason Putin got himself back into the Russian Presidency. The sole goal is to finish what was started under him and George Bush when he was gathering forces amongst Russia, China, the 35 non aligned nations and anyone else interested in stopping our efforts to rule the world.
Hezbollah and Iran's IRG armed by Russia have taken the lead in slaughtering the Syrian people to keep them and Bashar Al assad in control. This is just the opening volley in the war against US hegemony. Sorry to say but those Syrian people are being sacrificed in an opening volley for the war for position to see who holds prominence as we try to move through the 21st century.
I remember saying a year ago that the Syrian protesters are the bravest in the world as they know they at the least are facing dedicated Syrian and Iranian Revolutionary Guard killers and now we find out we were right on and then some. I know the protesters vowed not to be deterred stating they will break the Government period but there is no way. The Syrian Government will kill and arrest who they have too. Iran will accept nothing less!
I remember the Syrian opposition saying that they would not stop and would ultimately defeat the Government saying Democratic transition would safeguard Syria from violence. As outsiders looking in we know nothing could be further from the truth. People are being imprisoned and murdered and I can not see that stopping until the Democracy movement is crushed. Supposedly this expected situation is begging for us to get involved but we damn well better not. Unless that is going to war with Iran is the goal.
I remember saying from day one that it would take almost the whole military to defect before they would have a chance and now that we know how involved Russia, Iran and Hezbollah are in the slaughtering that is going on around the country that is beginning to look like the beginning of their fight.
You have to be very concerned about what is happening in Syria especially. Russia, China, and Iran are not going to allow Syria to fall to Democracy. What we saw after the voter fraud in Iran was mild compared to what the IRG will do if this movement spreads to Iran. I really wish Bashar would step down but Iran is the elephant in the room any way you look at it. The total middle east breakdown we have written about numerous times is well under way. We can only hope we keep it from erupting into WW3.
In closing: You know Putin just got himself reelected as President, he did this so he could be at the helm of Russia as he like me knows 100% that world war is our future. He plans on marshaling China who is rapidly building a more formidable military and whoever he can to take on US hegemony.Russia watched helplessly as we had our way in Libya. Putin blames what is happening in Syria on our interference and Libya for training the protesters to fight against Bashar Al-Assad.Russia and Iran will not let this be another Libya but?
Putin is going to do everything possible to keep us from helping the Syrian people and I really feel for them. I do not see this going down the way Libya did and Iran and Russia are going to make sure it does not. I am afraid the Syrian people are going to be sacrificed, sacrificed in what is merely an opening salvo in this the wars for future dominance. God help us!

Really a rotten situation over there now. Was talking to some connected people over here. They say entire families trying to flee are either being arrested or killed out right. If they discover a soldier has defected they round up his family and execute.
It's bad and there is no way I see it just going away like they hope. I know I said it before but I like Kofi Annan but as a negotiator he is tits on a bull. Absolutely worthless. What pisses me off is those poor people are being slaughtered because Russia is after us and US hegemony! This is just the beginning.
If reports are to be believed, Russia is gathering forces in Armenia for a quick strike through Georgia and into Iran, should we decide to play our war games there.
And-mark my words here-if we do that, we're through. China will snap the purse shut, maybe even embargo us, which would absolutely cripple our military in a matter of weeks. We will head for the Soviet end we seem to have chosen for ourselves.
And Putin will deal with that Stalinist scum Saakashvili in the meantime.
Sorry Sam I just saw this! You could be right but if Russia takes that route to go into Iran it will be to get at us and help Iran. This battle for the future is just setting up and it sucks!
