SYRIAN ARMY CRUSHES TERRORISTS IN ALEPPO; NEW AREAS LIBERATED

2233
MAJOR NEWS ALERT: (7-6-14, 12:10 p.m.)  The towns of Kafr Sagheer and Tal Sha’eer are hours away from falling into the hands of the legitimate Syrian government as the Syrian army continues its massive, unstoppable onslaught in northern Aleppo after destroying the criminals cannibals in Al-Shaykh Najjaar and its Industrial Zone.  A huge battle is taking place now.  Our prediction of a full encirclement and annihilation of the Nusra rats within 11 days remain on track.
News just in confirms the SAA has completely liberated the Infantry College near these 2 towns.
Fearing a complete meltdown, the Joint Operations Room of the Syrian People (yawn. Al-Ghurfa Al-Mushtaraka Li-Ahl Al-Shaam) has risibly called for a “full mobilization” while the Council of Free Aleppo is being monitored as it calls for “immediate assistance” to stop the Syrian army.
Even their communications now can be heard by ham radio operators just to show you how broken the defenses of northern Aleppo have become.  The Turks can do nothing.  These criminals are about to face justice.
_______________________________________________________________
Industrial Zone at Al-Shaykh Najjar:  The news has been out since Thursday and you all know that the pincer is closing rapidly around the remaining terrorist cannibals in northern Aleppo.  We predicted this and will adhere to our timetable given to you a few days ago: Aleppo, the city, should be liberated completely in another 12 days.  The evacuation plan has been partially successful, but, many will not leave their valuables or real estate to the predations of the remnant scavengers still waiting for their pot at the end of the rainbow – a rainbow which is becoming increasingly incendiary.
The delousing of Al-Shaykh Najjaar also brought the clean-up of the towns of Al-Muqbila, Al-Raheema, Al-Rahmaaniyya and the hills surrounding all these locales.

On traitors, rebels, terrorist and loyalist


by Petri Krohn

By what name to call the antifascist resistance in the Ukraine? Kyiv calls them terrorists some call them separatists or rebels. I call them loyalists.

Why?

They are loyal to the Motherland, to the Rus' nation, to the Orthodox church, to Mother Russia, to their fathers and grandfathers who defended the nation. They are loyal to the soldiers of the Red Army, to the partisans, to the Soviet People, to the Ukrainian Soviet Socialist Republic and its successor, loyal to President Yanukovych, the Ukrainian constitution and to their oath to defend it, loyal to their cities, their towns their villages, their families, to themselves!

They do not fight Ukraine. They resist the illegal usurpers of power, an American occupation regime, the "terror junta!"

Who are the Euromaidan forces, the defenders of "European values", the worshipers of Hitler and Bandera?

They are the traitors, the turncoats, the sell-outs. They are the separatist that want to divide the Russian spiritual world. The self-haters who want to make their land dominions of foreign empires. These traitors and their spiritual forefathers have kissed the boot of every invader who has ever set foot on sacred Rus' soil. With open arms they welcomed their foreign masters, from Gediminas to Carolus Rex, from Casimir the Great to Napoleon, from Kaiser Wilhelm II to the Führer.

Glory to Ukraine – To the Heroes Glory!


Now they have sold their country for a EU visa, a work permit, a green card.

They started their Reign of Terror with mass murder on Maidan. At every step accusing their victims for their own crimes – from Odessa to Lugansk.

They began with cudgels and Molotov cocktails, then assault-rifles and machine guns, then heavy mortars and artillery, then attack aircraft and white phosphorus. Finally they switched to multiple rocket launchers, starting with the GRAD, then upgrading to the Uragan, and ultimately the BM-30 Smerch – the destroyer of cities. They only stopped because there was not yet a thermonuclear weapon in their arsenal that could kill 6 million people at one blow!

Their ultimate aim. Lustration, the cleansing of their country of the Russian subhumans, of Putin's puppets, of its historical memory, of any artifact that reminds of its heroic past. A violent revolution to make "Ukraine" a servant of the American Empire. Ethnic cleansing and genocide.

For what? What do Ukraine's leaders gain from all this? Enormous wealth? War booty? Death and destruction? Two plane tickets to Miami? Another noose for themselves at the Kiev gallows?

'All regional players have clients except us!' "

VIA FLC


"... Today, it’s unclear if the United States has much influence at all. One U.S. official working on Iraq told The Daily Beast that any candidate the United States publicly endorsed today in Baghdad would lose any prospect of becoming prime minister, given the current climate in Baghdad. "The other regional players have clients; we do not, and it's smart not to go down that road; guarding our role as a neutral broker and facilitator makes nobody happy but is essential for retaining a foundation for longer-term influence,” this official said..."

Iran, Russia to join forces against terror in Iraq: Tehran



Sun Jul 6, 2014 5:43PM


Iran and Russia have agreed to jointly help Iraq combat terrorism, Iran’s Deputy Foreign Minister for Arab and African Affairs Hossein Amir-Abdollahian says.

“Tehran and Moscow firmly support Iraq in its fight against terrorism and will strongly stand by the Iraqi nation and government to protect Iraq’s unity, independence and territorial integrity,” Amir-Abdollahian said in an interview with Iran's al-Alam Arabic-language news channel.
He added that Iran and Russia both oppose any conspiracy for the disintegration of Iraq into smaller entities.

The top Iranian diplomat further said, “Tehran and Moscow have close and in many cases common and coordinated stance on regional developments.”

Iran and Russia believe that Iraq, along with its fight against terrorism, should seriously focus on completing the political process in the country for convening the parliament to form a government.

The first session of Iraq's newly elected parliament was adjourned on July 1 for a week without choosing a new speaker after Kurdish lawmakers boycotted the session over their conflicts with other lawmakers.

The members of parliament are tasked with naming a new unity government. After choosing the parliament speaker, the lawmaker will have to pick the Iraqi president as well as the prime minister within 45 days.

Incumbent Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki is bidding for a third term, despite stiff opposition from his key rivals.

On the future of Iraq, Abdollahian said Tehran will respect and support any coalition formed by Maliki’s State of Law coalition, which won the most parliamentary seats in recent elections.

“If Maliki is introduced as the prime minister and this agreement is reached inside Iraq, we will strongly support him; and if any individual other than Maliki is elected and approved within the framework of the recent election’s outcome, he too will be supported by the Islamic Republic of Iran,” he reiterated, adding, "This is an entirely internal issue for Iraq."

Iraq is currently witnessing a wave of violence, which escalated after militants from the ISIL terrorist group took control of large swathes of the country, including key cities last month.

HEIDEGGER, PAPPE, HISTORY AND CONCEALMENT

 
A few days ago, I published a comment on Dr Ilan Pappe’s performance on BBC Hardtalk. In my comment, I argued that Pappe’s struggle to make his point was not because of his opponent’s bulldozer tactics and certainly not because of Dr Pappe lacked either scholarship or courage, but simply because Ilan Pappe, in his desperation to conceal Jewish shame, is completely and utterly unable to utter the J word. In effect this means that he was unable to give voice to the blatantly obvious fact that Israeli barbarism is, unfortunately, totally consistent with certain yet common interpretations of Jewish culture, Jewish religious and heritage.
In a short article published today in Dissident Voice, William James Martin, asserted that I accused Pappe of ‘cowardice’. This is not true. In fact, on the contrary, I am well informed about all that Pappe has endured in his home country and I regard him as a very brave man indeed. Of course, I certainly cannot know precisely what it is that prevents Ilan Pappe from examining the real ideology that led to the expulsion of the Palestinians, though I can think of some possible reasons: Pappe occupies a position in a British university which must alone limit his freedom of expression. And of course, it may also be that Pappe really doesn't believe that the criminal actions committed by the Jewish state have anything to do with Jewish culture, Jewish heritage, Jewish ideology or even Judaism.  
But here is something that William James Martin probably doesn’t know: Twice in my life I have met Ilan Pappe (both meetings confirmed that he is indeed one of the nicest people within the solidarity movement) and in one of the meetings I discussed the above matter with him.
Eight years ago, Palestinian film maker Dima Hamdan, who was producing a film on Israeli dissent, gathered Israeli film maker Eyal Sivan, Ilan Pappe and myself for a filmed discussion. Hamdan began the session by asking the three of us what differentiated us from the Israeli Left. Sivan, was first to answer and said, quite correctly, that “the Israeli Left is willing to critically examine 1967, but we look into 1948, the Nakba, the ethnic cleansing and so on.”  Pappe was quick to affirm that this was indeed also his position.
Me, being the notorious trouble maker, immediately challenged both Sivan and Pappe. I agreed that 1948 demanded scrutiny but why, I asked, stop there? Why not go on and extend our enquiries and try to grasp the power structure that made, for example, the Belfour declaration possible? After all, how can we possibly look at the Balfour declaration without also understanding the power of the Lobby behind it, a lobby already firmly in place in 1917?  Furthermore, what was the nature of the ‘Jewish question’ already much under discussion at that time? How did it emerge and why did emancipation not work out as had been expected? What about the role of culture and heritage? Was not the Jewish ‘homecoming’ then and the Nakba later driven by the same interpretation of the bible as a call for a genocide?
Well, you won’t be surprised to hear that it was then and there that Pappe stopped the whole thing dead. .
“Gilad” he said, “ I understand where you’re coming from, but I don’t want to go there. This kind of discussion borders on essentialism”
So, also there and then I suggested to Pappe that, as far as I was concerned, it is precisely digging into the essence of things that is the true meaning of intellectual and philosophical discussion. The search for the essence of Being is called metaphysics. The essence of beauty is explored by aesthetics. Similarly, the study of the essence of the organism is called biology. History, the attempt to narrate the past, only becomes meaningful once we transcend ourselves above the document and touch the essence, the idea, the ideological, the spirit, the collective. 
This was just too much. Ilan asked for the filming to end and this was pretty much the end of the discussion and also the end of Dima Hamdan’s film on ‘Israeli dissent’. 
Since then I’ve worked extensively on the philosophy of history and I even dedicated the final part of my latest book The Wandering Who to my own reading of both Being and Time. I came to realise that, unlike Pappe and a few other progressives and post-modernists, I am actually a reactionary essentialist - an avid modernist excited by Aletheia - the Greek word commonly translated as ‘disclosure’ and ‘truth’. I am searching for that glorious moment of epiphany, the experience of sudden and striking realization. This is all I care about – that precious moment when the essence pretends to reveal itself just before it escapes again into the void.
Alas, William James Martin is apparently not familiar with any such philosophical discussions on history and concealment. This is no crime but neither is it anything to be proud of. So I recommend to William James Martin that he read Jean-François Lyotard’s‘Heidegger and the Jews’ - Probably the best exploration of this theme. Mr Martin, the act of being a philosopher is slightly more complex than just name dropping. After all, is not the philosopher the one who produces thoughts to do with Being and being in the world, and is this not pretty much all that I do (and am famous for)? That is, when I’m awake and not blowing my sax.

CZECH JEWS ARE UNHAPPY WITH MEL GIBSON'S LATEST ACHIEVEMENT.

A long time has passed since Czech Jews used to spit on the cross and churches.  Here is in an extract from a Jewish travel guide for Europe.  “In Prague’s Charles Bridge, the visitor will observe a great crucifix surrounded by huge gilded Hebrew letters that spell the traditional Hebrew sanctification Kadosh Kadosh Kadosh Adonai Tzvaot, “Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord of Hosts.” According to various commentators, this piece, degrading to Jews, came about because in 1609 a Jew was accused of desecrating the crucifix. The Jewish community was forced to pay for putting up the Hebrew words in gold letters. Another explanation is that a Jew spat at the cross and for this he was to be put to death as a punishment. When this man begged for his life, the king, seeking to have good relations with the Jews, said the Jewish community had to rectify the offence….” (To read more: Travel Guide for Jewish Europe, pg 497)
But the Czech Jewish community is slightly more confident these days. It is clearly very unhappy with Mel Gibson's Latest achievement. 
"The Czech Jewish community protested against a decision by the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival to give Mel Gibson its top award for lifetime achievement, saying his work includes anti-Semitic views.
The 58 year-old actor and director will receive a Crystal Globe during the state-sponsored festival’s opening on July 4, according to organizers. The Federation of Jewish Communities in the Czech Republic objected to the award, saying Gibson’s 2004 movie the “Passion of the Christ” portrays Jews as “evil and blood-thirsty,” it said in a letter to the festival.
“By granting this award, the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival becomes another of the very arguable platforms that are gradually changing the atmosphere of our country from a traditional, relatively tolerant society” into one “where space is given to hostility, xenophobia, and anti-Semitic ideas,” the Federation said in the letter on its website.
The Karlovy Vary Festival acknowledged receiving the letter and said it respected its opinions.
“The award is to recognize Gibson’s filmmaking skills and his career,” festival spokeswoman Uljana Donatova said by phone. “We don’t feel that we’re entitled to comment on the rest. The Passion of the Christ won’t be screened at the festival.”

Germany Wants “Quick, Clear” Answers from US over Double-Agent Reports



German ministers called on the United States to give “quick and clear” answers over reports on spying by a double agent.

Reports of US spying have sparked anger in Germany after revelations the NSA tapped Chancellor Merkel's phone."If reports are correct, we are not talking here about small potatoes," Foreign Minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier said in a tweet, following reports of US spying that have sparked anger in Germany after revelations the NSA allegedly tapped Chancellor Angela Merkel's phone.

Interior Minister Thomas de Maiziere in pre-released experts from Monday's Bild newspaper called for a "quick and clear" statement by the US on the allegations.

The 31-year-old employee of the German foreign intelligence agency known as the BND arrested last week had been working for the CIA for around two years, local media reported Sunday.

"All signs indicate that he was acting for the Americans," the Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung (FAS) Sunday newspaper quoted an unnamed senior official at Germany's foreign intelligence service as saying.

The weekly Bild am Sonntag newspaper, citing information from security authorities, also said the man had worked for the CIA and handed over secret documents as recently as July 1.

Germany's federal prosecutor general confirmed a man was arrested last Wednesday on suspicion of acting for a foreign intelligence service, but did not specify which one.

Both newspapers said the suspect had passed on two documents about a parliamentary panel established earlier this year to investigate NSA surveillance after revelations by fugitive former intelligence contractor Edward Snowden.

German authorities were alerted to the suspect when he sent an email with attached files at the end of May to the Russian consulate offering to supply information, reports said.
