    Quote
    armed forces from around 20 countries were gathering in northern Saudi Arabia Sunday for "the most important" military maneuver ever staged in the region, the official news agency SPA reported.

    The "Thunder of the North" exercise involving ground, air, and naval forces sends a "clear message" that Riyadh and its allies "stand united in confronting all challenges and preserving peace and stability in the region", SPA said.

    Saudi Arabia is currently leading a military campaign against Iran-backed rebels in its southern neighbor Yemen. Last December, it also formed a new 35-member coalition to fight "terrorism" in Islamic countries.

    Sunday's announcement also comes as the kingdom, a member of the U.S.-led coalition targeting the jihadist Islamic State group, said it has deployed warplanes to a Turkish air base in order to "intensify" its operations against IS in Syria.

    SPA did not specify when the military exercise will begin or how long it will last.

    However, the agency called it the "most important and largest in the region's history" in terms of the number of nations taking part and the weaponry being used.

    Twenty countries will be taking take part, SPA said.

    Among them are Saudi Arabia's five partners in the Gulf Cooperation Council, as well as Chad, Egypt, Jordan, Malaysia, Morocco, Pakistan, Senegal and Tunisia, it added.

    A Saudi source said on Thursday that members of the new "anti-terrorism" coalition will gather in Saudi Arabia next month for its first publicly announced meeting.

    Riyadh has said the alliance would share intelligence, combat violent ideology and deploy troops if necessary.

    Syria's government on Sunday condemned Turkey for two days of shelling targeting mainly Kurdish forces in the northern province of Aleppo and urged the United Nations to act, state media said.

    It also accused Turkey of allowing gunmen and weaponry to enter Syria from the Bab al-Salama crossing into Aleppo province, where government forces have recently launched a major campaign.

    "The foreign ministry strongly condemns the repeated Turkish crimes and attacks against the Syrian people and Syria's territorial integrity," state news agency SANA reported.

    The ministry called on the U.N. Security Council to "put an end to the crimes of the Turkish regime," SANA added.

    The ministry statement said that on Saturday 12 pick-up trucks equipped with heavy machine guns and ammunition had crossed into Syria from Turkey via Bab al-Salama.

    They "were accompanied by around 100 gunmen, some of them Turkish forces and Turkish mercenaries," SANA quoted the ministry as saying.

    The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights monitor also reported the arrival of a convoy of fighters from Turkey via Bab al-Salama into Aleppo province on Saturday.

    "Around 350 Islamist fighters from the Faylaq al-Sham faction crossed from Turkey and entered the towns of Azaz and Tal Rifaat," said Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman.

    He said the convoy had originated in the town of Atmeh, in neighboring rebel-held Idlib province, crossing from there into Turkey, before re-entering Syria through Bab al-Salama.

    The rebel reinforcements come as an alliance of Kurdish and Arab fighters push towards the rebel-held towns of Azaz and particularly Tal Rifaat, in northern Aleppo province.

    The alliance, known as the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), has also taken the Minnigh airbase from Islamist rebels, and is now battling them for control of Tal Rifaat.

    The advances have angered Turkey, which considers the Kurdish component of the SDF to be a branch of the outlawed Kurdistan Workers Party (PKK), which has waged a decades-long insurgency against the Turkish state.

    Washington, which has backed the SDF in fighting against the Islamic State group, has also urged the Kurds and their allies not to "take advantage of a confused situation by seizing new territory."

    The SDF advance comes in the wake of a major push by Syrian government forces backed by Russian air power in northern Aleppo province.

    That operation has left the rebel-held east of Aleppo city virtually encircled and prompted tens of thousands of civilians to flee northern Aleppo province.

  • Quote from: OP

    Americans, completely ignorant of who is _really_ the bad guy here (the Sunnis and the US), will hear that "Russia attacked our allies with nukes" they'll gasp and say to themselves "those bastards" and off to war they'll go; a war that will have already gone nuclear.  WW3 . . . 18 days from now.



    Bear in mind there have always been questions about President Obama's religious leanings.  He has claimed he is a Christian.  But in verbal slips from time to time, he has talked of his "Muslim faith."  If Obama is, in fact, a Muslim, then it is proper to ask if he leans Sunni or Shia.  The facts seem to show the answer:  Look at the sweetheart nuclear deal he gave to (Shia) Iran!



    Would Obama use a deception like this to lead the Sunnis to destruction? Maybe.  Would Obama risk causing a nuclear exchange with Russia, destroying parts of his own country?  Well, if he _is_ a Shia, one need only remember that (Shia) Iran refers to the US as "the Great Satan." so this could be a way for Obama to achieve two enormous goals: lead the Sunnis to THEIR destruction at the hands of Russia, then cause the "great satan" severe destruction too.



    If Obama is a Shia muslim, it would be "mission accomplished" for him!


    If a terrorist will strap explosives to his chest to achieve "72 virgins" why wouldn't he be willing to strap the banner of "US President" to his chest for the same purpose?

    I'll say.  If I didn't just drop in here and see Myrna's post, I wouldn't have know about this because when I do lurk about here, I rarely come into this section.

  • Mr Erdogan does business with whoever fills his pockets and are discreet. Iranians running a sanctions busting gold trade fall into that category, and his army of influence pedlars can be discarded and framed as needed. He threatens Assad as it boosts his nationalist and Islamist credentials. The oil trade with DAESH falls into the filling his pockets category, but I somehow doubt he is that negative towards them.

    King Salman really, really wants to intervene. Just watch his broadcasts, but consider the Saudis face a vortex of low oil prices, endless war in Yemen, and a discontented people both Sunnis and Shia (the oilfields are also home to the Shia minority to a big extent, where they are a majority). That's without considering the losses suffered by hitherto successful Saudi militias in Syria. Leaders lost, experienced fighters lost. They will need their sands to become gold dust. They have a huge, if shrinking, sovereign fund, but a direct intervention in Syria, would finish them.

    If somehow a bigger war can be avoided, a Saudi intervention would really destroy their Kingdom of Darkness, even if the short-term would be a greater death toll.

    We can only pray. :pray:

[...] The Lord strike thee with madness and blindness and fury of mind. And mayst thou grope at midday as the blind is wont to grope in the dark, and not make straight thy ways. And mayst thou at all times suffer wrong, and be oppressed with violence, and mayst thou have no one to deliver thee.

  • It would be a relief to know that there are at least a few priories with fallout shelters.

    Does anyone happen to know of any? I don't need to know where they might be, but it would be a consolation to know there are some, at least.

    18 days until World War 3?                      




    Is it STILL 18 days, or is it less now?  (If so, how many?)

    Is the title of this thread still relevant?  

    The OP was on Feb. 13, and 18 days later is March 3rd.
