nothing more entertaining than fake-news that is discredited to the point of side-splitting laughter.
the russkies must be using Bill Krozby as their media consultant.
yeah it's ridiculous, on par with the time ISIS tried to pass off footage from one of the COD games as actual video of Iraqi pilots 'targeting Sunnis' -

imagine back 20 years ago when there wasnt the internet with a means of discrediting the bullshit MINITRU propaganda.
none of this fake news would have been exposed. -

2017-11-16 at 1:49 AM UTCYeah, bothering. I remember seeing a while back that a lot of the supposed photos of Nazis standing over mass graves were actually photos of the NKVD taken years before with German uniforms carefully superimposed on them... And wondered how many of those 'important' historical photos got the same treatment.
https://southfront.org/russian-defense-ministry-investigates-incident-releasing-wrong-photos-al-bukamal-statement/
Russian MoD is claiming that the information is true, but it was a civil servant who was tasked with making the public release and screwed up, posting the wrong photos. They've released a separate set which they claim is genuine. -

Originally posted by infinityshock you know nothing about the interactions and motivations of the various sects of muhammadanism and your analogy is like comparing apples to absolutely nothing because there is no relation whatsoever. none at all. not even a little bit.
sectarian violence is infinitely more pronounced in muhammadism than christianity yet look at the strife and bloodshed theyve caused amongst themselves.
stfu and dont comment on topics you know exactly jack and shit about.
but whatever sect they belonged to mecca is still holly to them and its the point on earth where they bend over to to pray 5times per day everyday.
you dont just bomb something like that and not be islamic pariahs. -

2017-11-17 at 2:07 AM UTCSAUDI ARABIA - MbS is apparently now extorting the people he's had arrested on corruption charges - they've been given the option to buy their freedom by surrendering up to 70% of their assets to the state.
It's actually a very smart move, regardless of whether it's legitimately an anti-corruption measure or not. He's effectively stopped 'capital flight' out of KSA, which was bound to happen as their financial situation became more and more dire, and socializing chunks of the larger companies goes a long way to stabilising the state's financial troubles. They could potentially use those funds to improve infrastructure and move away from reliance on oil industries, but it seems a lot more likely that it'll be used as a war chest for likely-upcoming conflicts. -
2017-11-17 at 3:06 AM UTCSYRIA - Stalemate at the UN over the investigation of the Khan Shekhoun chemical attack - has been going on for a while but I'm not sure if I posted about it.
Western newspapers are reporting that Russia has veto'd propositions to extend the OPCW's investigation into the matter, but as usual they only present half the story and don't explain why.
- The OPCW investigation has not inspected the site of the attack for 'safety concerns', which directly contravenes their own charter.
- The 'investigation' is based entirely on the testimony of rebel ('opposition') groups, largely the infamous White Helmets, a group who claim to rescue civilians in the warzone but are inextricably linked to Al-Nusra and other Islamist rebels. They're also being funded to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars by the US, UK and Turkish governments.
- The chemical analysis of tissue samples (again, these were collected by White Helmets so there's no sure chain of custody of evidence, or assurance that the evidence came from the attack site) is carefully worded, stating that the presence of 'sarin or a sarin-like substance' was detected. This indicates that it's not certain whether the victim was actually killed by the toxin, and calls into question whether Sarin was actually detected or if it was some other organophosphate compound or waste product.
- Given the above 'evidence' and no will to investigate directly, the only direction for the OPCW to go is to ascribe blame for the incident based on deeply flawed methodology.
Russia, Syria, Iran and China have put forward a motion to build a new international investigation team, one that would actually travel to the site and investigate directly, but the US and several Western-European countries immediately veto'd the motion on the basis that it would 'undermine the legitimacy of the existing OPCW investigation'. -

2017-11-21 at 9:59 PM UTCLEBANON - The army has been deployed and put on full combat readiness along the Israel border. Hezbullah hasn't made any statements on the matter, but judging by Nasrallah's speeches and comments relating to KSA's effective kidnap of the prime minister they seem to see war as inevitable, even as they call for calm and a rational response.

looks like it's just the continuation of a readiness plan that went into effect a few years ago:The Russian leader added that he and senior defense officials already discussed the issue in 2015 and 2016,
makes sense that they've been concerned about the possibility of war since around the time they started trying to help unfuck Syria -

Originally posted by RT Fewer than 13,000 troops took part in the exercise in total, according to figures from the defense ministries of Russia and Belarus. Around 70 aircraft, 680 armored vehicles, including 250 tanks, 200 artillery guns, and 10 warships, were deployed by the two nations.
highly contested and contentious issue.https://rusi.org/commentary/zapad-2017-why-do-numbers-matter
A forensic analysis of the data available about these exercises, including that related to mandatory reporting of the military equipment restricted by the Conventional Forces in Europe (CFE) Treaty, offers conclusive evidence that Russia is being economical with the truth. This analysis suggests the number of troops participating in the exercises will be closer to 65–70,000.
