We aren't. Yet.

so that magically turns Islamic extremists into moderate rebels right?? This way it looks prettier in the media when we openly support them, isn't that the standard playbook?? I guess the Royals of Europe can try to own every port on Earth through the violently enforced BIS banking paradigm, but sometimes others will fight to keep what little they have no matter the names and titles we give them.

I think you forget the only real purpose to calling people these names is to rally popular support for unpopular agendas of greed. It only affects the regularly moldable proles. Nobody in the inner and outer parties gives any credence to titles like dictator or fascists because their existence and policy agendas all operate on a similar level.

The gist of it is as I explained earlier. Just another pass to see if they can retry gaining control of an alternate pipeline route for European energy security and Turkish and Israeli transit fees.

I think it is time for a new model of regime change propaganda. Most people no longer give any credibility to defending Democracy and the Rule of law considering the history our of military alliance invading countries over the decades is direct hypocrisy of such rhetoric. perhaps we can switch to "they are working with ET; so for the sake of humanity and Earth security we need to make sure we have complete domination and ownership of their industry, resource production, transit routes and finance."

I think at this point in 2025 more people would believe we are trying to save Earth from the regimes working with ET than the played out old line of "Rule of law, saving Democracy, Rules Based Order" etc.. etc.. played out nonsense.

War has always and will always be purely financial and transactional in nature. The only purpose the sweet sweet rhetoric serves is to keep the bodies and money flowing to the cause.

I think that you are very good at putting words into the mouths of other posters that they never said, and attributing opinions to them that they don't actually hold.

As to your obsession with European Royals, well.....

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

But we are in WWIII. Through proxy wars and proxy wars will continue expanding in scope and magnitude.

Nah it'd need to be a direct war in four or more continents to come close to being a world war - at the moment it's a toned down version of the Cold War and would be WW1000+ if such situations were classed as world wars.

If Assad goes to Moscow, he'll need extra security to cover the pending Polish Army invasion and the next round of Ukraine Drones!! 😄

This definition seems pertinent

"In order to qualify as a world war, at least one of three criteria must be met: the conflict takes place between multiple nations across the globe, battles are fought in many different locations, and the war must be fought against great powers with significantly advanced technology."

"a war engaged in by all or most of the principal nations of the world
especially, World War : either of two such wars of the first half of the 20th century".

Come on man, nothing like our two actual World Wars.

ahh, trying to resurrect the Moderate Rebels tripe?? So everyone is an Islamic Extremist, so lets support Islamic Extremists and call them moderate rebels when we do it.

It's amazing how you read that into my post that was just a factual statement and not pushing some policy. There are no moderate rebels...that is my point. As crazy as Israel and Turkey may look at times, they are the sanest of the crazies...lol

Not very nice or Christianly of us now is it?? Only the realest of Christians support Islamic radicals for unGodly greed, international energy infrastructure projects, and regime change! Because European elites and Israel God demands it!

Once again where do you read "my support" in any of this? The reality is all of the ME are Islamic extremists, there is no cure, no way to teach them something else, no way to change them to something better. A group could be nice to you and then cut your throat if it fits their needs. Hell, they cut each other's throats just the same. Shea and Sunni have no issue with cutting each other's heads off.

We and others keep failing because we think we can find a group that we can work with, and they will right up to the point they cut your head off....lol

Just as kind of a side note; I haven't been able to find any credible news reports of a coup in Syria, or that Assad has "fled to Russia" (as in exiled, or sought asylum there).

Perhaps it's true, but I don't see it on any of the major news wires.

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

Yeah... but random YouTubers say so. Must be true?

Evil lying MSM, etc.

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

It's not like the two previous wars because it's in different form...we're moving towards proxy wars. And we're still in the preliminary stage. We're waiting for the triggering event to spark the actual hot war.

a reply to: cherokeetroy

So, contrary to what you posted, we aren't in WW3?

Thanks. Nice to know. Phew!

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

The MSM seems to be a bit behind events these days.

a reply to: annonentity

Probably a bit behind actual reality?

Yeah, YouTube crap?

a reply to: Oldcarpy2

Perhaps who really knows. Let us all hope for the best and plan for the worst. But it is fairly certain that modern civilization is so complex and interdependent that it cant take much disruption before it falls apart.

I see several sources on Google News but they are .az and not sure how reliable.
one such story on MSN News (not MSNBC) but video, no article.
story is that Assad & family fled to Moscow and Assad went back to Syria. guessing Putin kicked him back.

www.dailymail.co.uk...

Putin-ally Bashar al-Assad is said to have fled to Russia with his wife and children earlier this week, according to unconfirmed rumors.

fwiw
