Flagged and stared! Very scary post, I figured Libya was is in play due to their move to the gold dinar for all transactions (oil). This was the same mistake that Saddam made and look what happened to him. But why Syria? I know their politics may be a thorn to some fair weather friends in the region, but what would be the significance of their defeat. What do they have to offer? If Iran was do-able they would have been in play by now, so I am thinking China and Russia let the PTB know what their reaction would be if we (USA) decided to engage them. Once again, good work and great find!
TPTB are looking to cause trouble in the middle east. Look at the fire of 'change and democracy' that has gone through Egypt, Tunisia (or is it Algeria?), Bahrain, Yemen.....dissenters are actively being encouraged by provocateurs from outside sources (as far as I can tell), creating a huge civil unrest and a 'desire for democracy'. The funny thing is, democracy is such an alien concept to the middle eastern mind, people like UK USA imagine these people will vote for a materialist, money, consumer orientated government/lifestyle'. After all, EVERYONE WANTS TO BE LIKE US, DON'T THEY? (Sorry, arrogant western mindset that I couldn't help mocking). Where people have been given the option to vote (Gaza, Iraq, Egypt) you have extremist anti western value groups coming in, be it Hamas, Moslem Brotherhood, etc.
Israel is surrounded by tens of thousands of rockets and missiles via Lebanon and Syria (and sure, Gaza have a few up their sleeve via Rafa crossings in Egypt). If it hits the fan and Syria gets attacked by US, I have no doubt Syria will chuck everything it has at israel. If it's a coordinated attack, Hezbollah in Lebanon will do the same, and Iran (who has an axis pact with Syria), may well reveal her nuclear hand. What happens next is anyones guess, but I believe Damascus will be nuked to the stoneage, and quite possibly Tehran as well. Jordan may feel the preassure to join in if other arab nations attack Israel (can't look weak to the neighbours).
As for Russia and China? Oy Vey.....

Faisal Almikdad, vice foreign minister, said "extremists" were responsible for hundreds of deaths in the northern town of Jisr al Shughour.
He said they had killed 123 security personnel in the town, and 300 in total, and injured 3,000 more.
A military spokesman has told Sky's Robert Nisbet that the aim of the gangs is to create an Islamic caliphate in Syria and overthrow the government
Mr Almikdad's appraisal of the death count is a revised figure after we were earlier told 1,300 military and security personnel had been killed

Russia is barely a nation. China has endless troops, supplies, and monetary control. It's not so much that they wouldn't be a challenge as it is that they would be endlessly coming at us.

1300 hundred army and police killed by Islamic terrorists, I think not. You have to be highly trained to do that much damage to sovreign fighters. For some reason, I'm picturing white Americans and Brits dress in dish-das clothing .

Hello all, well I have read so many article's, pages regarding "what can we do", or "TPB control everything and we are just ants", I for one have decided not to sit back and watch but get directly involved directly.
I am running for City Commissioner of Fort Lauderdale district 2 at the end of this year.
I know you say what can that accomplish ? and the truth is not a lot on the grand scale of things but it is a start for someone that is not an insider and does not have a lot of money backing me for congress. I will start off small and work my way up helping and fixing what I can that is wrong with this city, country, corruption and getting people more involved in the process.
I must say that my decision to run was directly due to reading all the post and being apart of this site. And I thank all of you for this regardless of your political position.!
Call what I am doing nothing but it is the best I can do as a start, I am only 35 so I have some time (hopefully : ) ahead of me to help make some sort of difference.
thanks....this was intended to show that some of us are taking steps to try to do something and to announce my intentions for doing it... (yes a little self serving : )
peaceful marine out...!
CIA?
