What a hollow logic is that of Nato- do say think the Syrian Governement  likes to start a war with missles against Turky soon? The fact is it has enough to do to battle the rug tuck terrorists send by the Israelies .Or is there some open guilt on the side of the Turks -have say may helped channel this terrorists intoSyria and it could be in the open on day ,whith relevant retaliations to come over tham?NATO has to be dismanteld it is a danger to the world as is the USA

NATO countries are going to implement a NO FLY ZONE over parts of Syria to help FSA hold its ground by bombing Assad's assets.

If the NATO deployed Patriot missiles in Turkey-Syria border, I cannot see the reason why Russia can't install the iskanders missiles in Syria and S-300 in Iran.

In response, Russia and China should help Syria and Iran to develop nuclear weapons and then you will see US and NATO shittting in their pants. I think by deploying partiot missiles, US and NATO are forcing Russia and China to become submissive and give up their support for Syria. They will keep playing this game until they terminate Russia and China.

Hey Too "Nunya". As long as you're cruising photos on-line, how about them new Iranian mini-subs? Did ya catch how the contractor used the wrong color paint? They're Teal-green. They're as camo as a virgin in a bordello. You gotta see the humor, right? Iran launches a new class of litoral subs, and the maker PAINTED THEM THE WRONG COLOR...... I don't care who you are, that's funny! Five officers standing on a bright green sub for a national photo op. LMOA........

Welcome to the "Liberated Zone" of Aleppo (unregistered) wrote in #7
Thanks to logistical support from France, the new authorities of the "liberated zone" of Aleppo are currently setting up a religious dictatorship inspired by the Saudi model. The reality is very different from the soothing declarations of Presidents Sarkozy and Hollande concerning the defence of liberty and the promotion of democracy.
The heretics - Sunnis, Sufis and Chiites, including the Druzes, Alaouites and Ismaelites - and the ’infidels’ (Christians) have been expelled and their possessions confiscated. Islamists, who have denounced democracy as a "Western conspiracy". We may remember that France supported the Islamic Emirate of Baba Amr, and that François Hollande received several of its refugee leaders, with honours, in Paris on the 6th July 2012.



It's not really a liberated zone as you do already show you know.More the case that Syria does not want to escalate things in that way.
The West decide to push the issue and watch what happens. That includes Turkey.

U.S.-U.K. Genocide Against Iraq 1990-2012 Killed 3.3 Millions (unregistered) 05.12.2012 06:31

Approximately 3.3 million Iraqis, including 750,000 children, were "exterminated" by economic sanctions and/or illegal wars conducted by the U.S. and Great Britain between 1990 and 2012, an eminent international legal authority says.

The "grossly hypocritical" UN refused to terminate the sanctions, even though its own Food and Agricultural Organization' s Report estimated that by 1995 the sanctions had killed 560,000 Iraqi children during the previous five years.

Do you guys notice too? From Chile to Iran and beyond, the West has always installed the most barbaric (puppet) governments across the globe. Regardless if they are religious or secular, they all have one thing in common; barbarism.
Look at all countries in all continents where governments in previous decades were installed and/or supported by the West. What did /do they all have in common?
1) Subservience to the West
2) Grave systematic human rights violations

I get a real chuckle out of these posts. After 20 months and 40,000 killed, not one single western made weapon in Syria (tons of Russian stuff though), a list of 147 foreigners provided to the UN by Assad (147 out of 40,000), flights detained with aid to Assad from Russia, attack helicopters from "a previous contract", 200 mil USD in humanitarian aid to Syria, no asylum for Assad in Russia, and finally a meeting between Putin and the Turkish PM, somehow, Turkey is planning to invade Syria (or the US is going to) because NATO voted to deploy Patriot's to Turkey, at Turkey's request. And everyone on RT, save a couple of sane voices, thinks the US is going to invade Syria. Well, is hasn't happened yet, and Father Time will tell the tale. Every nation that borders Syria has 350,000 refuges or more; so much for cultural sympathy and help. How about 200 mil USD from Syria to Turkey to house and feed the refuges. That's fair, isn't it?

Russia always wants to be different.Why cant they see that the problem in Syria is Russian made and supplied weapons being used against Syrians.They are the people who paid taxes to have these weapons for defence not to be used on their own citizens.Russia seems prepared to sell anything to anyone with a few dollars
