ꕤASSANGE VIDEO
TOPIC: RUSSIA, TURKEY & SYRIA
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
Video posted on YouTube by Russia Today.
Supporters of Russia and Syria aren't happy with Julian Assange's suggestion that Russian intelligence didn't anticipate the Turkish strike on their pilots in Syria.
Assange refers to it as the "severe incompetence of the Russian intelligence services". Ouch.
Assange goes on to say it was "... severe incompetence in relation to Ukraine, and severe incompetence in relation to Turkey because there were plenty of warning signals being given off by the Turks."
Assange asks "Why weren't those warning signals properly understood?", before saying that this is not to justify what Turkey did.
Assange says that in a realpolitik analysis, those messages should have been understood and that we should think about what will happen in about 6 months time, when the West, Russia and Iran are committed in various ways to the elimination of ISIS, because the establishments in those countries consider it a partial threat to their own interests.
He goes on to say this wasn't always the case, and that ISIS was fed in various ways by Western interests and interests of Saudis and so on.
Assange suggests that there will come a point in about 6 months time, where ISIS is almost completely debilitated, to the point where it will no longer have organised control of some portion of territory, and that ISIS will be back to being a guerilla group.
Assange suggests out that in 6 months time when ISIS is practically eliminated as a significant force, Syria will have had hardware from about 10 or 12 different countries bombing Syria , and he asks:
what are all those forces going to do then, are they just going to go home?
Damascus is 70km away, and they can just steer 70km to Damascus if they want, so it's a very dangerous situation, Assange says.
Assange also points out 'nationalistic imperatives' in Turkey and in Russia, and that the Syrian [government] is fighting for its life.
Former counter-terrorism specialist and CIA military intelligence officer Philip Giraldi (what was basically said (not entirely word-for-word)):
Erdogan has very skilfully (and sometimes clumsily) fear-mongered on a number of levels and on a number of issues to the Turkish people, and the fear-mongering has enabled Erdogan to aggrandise power, in both legal and illegal ways, in Turkey, and now Turkey has a head of state who is an autocrat, who essentially is not limited by any rules and feels himself free to do whatever he wants.
And that's all folks.
Lots of interesting points made.
I've not watched multi-national conflicts in the Middle East for long enough to be able to weigh up any of this.
I think this is an edit from one of the videos I have banked up to watch. I think I need to quit messing around with graphics editors and shuffling pictures around.
Really enjoyed that.

The ex-CIA guy, Giraldi, comes across like he might be good natured and unassuming. Nothing like I imagined CIA. He seems nice.
The Assange audio always seems to be muffled (but this wasn't as muffled as the last video I'd been watching).
The last (French) video I watched (some of) was a shocker. Tried to transcribe but it was hard going ...
I'm also super tired, which doesn't help. Kept drifting off to sleep in the bath. lol

Sweden - Shengen Suspended - Sweden Cuts Railway to Denmark / Passport Controls Reinstated
ꕤArticle SOURCE

COMMENT
Wow, this is big news and very unlike Sweden, which is at the forefront of accepting and promoting mass immigration and at the forefront of not giving a stuff about security and other issues this immigration results in.
I'm going to guess that this more than just about numbers. What's the bet that there's a terrorist scare?
There's got to be if they're doing all that non-PC passport checking in a country that doesn't bother to contain and control third world immigration -- even those it plans to deport (see IKEA murders).
Shengen Agreement for anyone who wants to do some reading:
It's a neocon's wet dream and working class and security nightmare (in the better to do countries).
Expires 2016, I think. I've not ready closely.

intervention by Julian Assange (Skype)
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
No luck finding the recent Russia-1 video, but I've found this recently loaded video on YouTube. It's recent: refers to gun manufactured by the Serbian arms company that was sold to an American dealer, before finding its way to the Paris Attacks (Paris Attacks - Sites / Reference). [M92?] - Shortened AK47
Serial number of [M92 ?] (shortened AK47) tracked down.
Gun registered to Century Arms, Florida, USA.
Gun manufactured by large, Serbian arms company and shipped as a batch to the US, to Century Arms in Florida and then founds its way to the Paris Attacks -- without there being a record of shipment from the US overseas.
Assange says Century Arms has been smuggling arms for years:

Our internet speed has been wound back to something shocking slow because I did some marathon listening to YouTube videos during marathon sessions online. Oops.
If I sulk enough, I'm hoping we'll get an upgrade so I don't have to spend Christmas going nuts on what may as well be 'dial up' internet, for the time being.
Anyway, back to checking out all this stuff.
Oddly, I can watch the YouTube Video even though I'm now on slow internet ... but some of my searching is REALLY slow.
Wow, Zastava Arms has been operating ages: founded 1850s (link). Trivia: 'zastava' means 'flag'.

Assange: USA Planning to Oust Syrian President Since At Least 2006
ꕤArticle SOURCE http://sputniknews.com/politics/20151221/1032069516/assange-us-oust-assad.html
---------------------- ꕤ ----------------------
COMMENT
Is it still a 'civil war' if you have American, Western, Israeli and Gulf Arabs trying to bring down a democratically elected government, by arming and backing terrorists (many of whom are multi-national Islamists from elsewhere)?
US has a record of bringing down democratically elected governments and installing US-friendly dictator puppets, to further the interests of American oligarchs.
Covert USA regime change list below, and an idea of just how extensive the American aggression record is:
I've added Libya 2011 and Ukraine 2014 to the list above (although they're not listed at the source), as both were definitely US regime changes. Not sure how 'covert' Libya may be. I've also listed Afghanistan and Iraq. But, again, I'm not sure they would qualify as 'covert'. Or do they? I've not really focused on what's what in that sense.
Was going to do proper reference list, but I got side-tracked and didn't finish that ambitious project.
USA frames regime change in terms of 'human rights' interventions these days.
The Voice of Detroit independent newspaper article (2014) - link here - looks an interesting article about the more recent US driven regime change in: Afghanistan, Iraq, Libya, Syria and CIA involvement etc.
I'm about to check that out more closely.
Might also see if I can find the Assange TV documentary appearance mentioned.
[Oops ... Think I went to the wrong channel: got soft porn & gaming.]
