https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/sep/07/kurds-renew-their-claim-for-idlib-as-final-battle-draws-near

DJ-Russia, Iran, Turkey tried to agree on Syria in Tehran-Iran last friday. Maybe it looks like Turkey does not agree with Russia, Iran (and Syria) plans.

Some remarks;

-Turkey is "to deep" in the Russian/Iran sphere of influence with Turk Stream-linking Russian energy to the EU, S400 and trade deals with Russia Iran China etc.
Also Erdogan has had enough of the US (and the EU-but doing deals with SE European countries). Turkey needs investments, China, Russia may bring such.

-Iraq is moving away from the "west" towards Iran. Pakistan is moving towards China.

-Afghanistan is part of a US/NATO plan to control Iran, Russia, China. The wars in Afghanistan (since 2001) and Iraq (2003) are part of a regime-change program for Iran going back to the 1979 Iran revolution.

DJ-Turkey most likely has decided to join the Russia-Iran-China group. To keep influence they have to accept the price. In the Putin-chess game Turkey may be limited in Syria but could be used in getting influence in Saudi Arabia/Gulf States.

The US/Israel war on Iran in Syria will not work. Israel will not start a war with Iran on its own and the US does not want to get involved in a big war with Iran AND Russia (AND China). The goal may be to limit and slow down Iran and Russia.

The coming weeks may see Russia using its air force against alquaida and IS in US held area's of Syria (and Iraq ?). Special Forces could be used to get several terrorist groups to fight each other. For Turkey refugees from Syria will be send to area's under Assad control.

There may be a chemical attack-claim, even a US (and UK, France) strike but that will not stop the operations. Putin want to finish the war (for Asia-not just Syria) maybe this year ?

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3127-battle-for-idlib-begins-as-syrian-russian-forces-unleash-massive-attack

DJ-Hal Turner reporting on AIR (and Navy ?) operations against US backed terrorists in NW Syria. Unclear what Turkey is planning. They seem to be on the same page with Russia, Iran, Syria (or not ? That would mean Erdogan would trust the US-very unlikely. DJ-At this moment the US is promoting chaos and regimechange allover the planet. )

In his 7.09 pm update HT claims a "rebel"specialist sabotaged rebel chemical weapons that would provide the US with an excuse for intervention. The US claims only Assad has chemical weapons so when the US claims there are chemical weapons used the US comes in "to protect the people".

http://theduran.com/trump-does-a-180-on-syria-war-is-on-the-horizon-video/ With 10/20.000 Uyghurs from western China in NW Syria China has an interest in killing those US sponsored sunni-extremists before they go back (via CIA) to China.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-09-08/us-military-preparing-options-syria, https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-09-08/youtube-shuts-down-all-syrian-state-channels-idlib-assault-begins

YouTube, Facebook etc blocking alternative news media.

DJ-According to some views Trump is under deep state control and has to escalate the Syria "civil" war to stay in power.

My (DJ) views;

Both Turkey and Israel did support "rebels"(including IS)-they want to delete proof of that. (What is the point of war-on-terror when those fighting terror are also funding terror ? weapons-oil-money-greed !)

If Turkey wants to play a major role in the coming EurAsia-market it has to deal with Russia, China, Iran.
In Israel there is (always) several lines. Netanyaho welcomes US money, Jerusalem as capitol for the US-still Netanyahu has better contacts with Putin does not know who is ruling the US. (Even the Gulf States, KSA, EU may wonder who is in control in the US).

The US "politics" have destabilized the major nuclear power-so there is a "fight for the steering wheel in a heavy truck full of (nuclear) explosives". That is not good at all !

https://www.marketwatch.com/story/syria-planning-poison-gas-attack-on-rebels-us-says-2018-09-09?siteid=rss&rss=1 and https://www.defconwarningsystem.com/phpBB3/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=12428&start=50
DJ-Discussion on whether to attack Russian or Iran forces in Syria by the US after "chemical weapons use by Assad". https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-09-09/us-says-assad-has-approved-gas-attack-idlib-setting-stage-major-military-conflict

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-09-09/pentagon-sends-strong-message-russia-live-fire-assault-drills-syria DJ-In reaction to claims of "pro-Assad forces" willing to attack ("rebel"groups that attacked Palmyra from) the Al-Tanf area (close to the Iraq/Jordan border) the US has been "showing strenght" in that area.

DJ-Again-the US is in Syria against international law, the US has given support to groups seen international as terrorists. Just like the war in Iraq this US military operation is a war crime.

http://theduran.com/russia-locks-horns-with-turkey-in-astana-as-u-s-prepares-false-flag-attack-in-syria-video/ and http://theduran.com/terrorists-and-white-helmets-met-in-idlib-to-plot-false-flag-chemical-attack-video/

DJ-Turkey has send in large amount of troops in the Idlib-area "as observers". Erdogan does not want to see-yet-a major landwar in this region. (But seems to be willing to accept that several groups "get bombed away" since even Turkey is seeing them as terrorists. Most likely "special forces" will operate in Idlib to do "the dirty work" and start infighting between several jihadi-groups.)

DJ-My impression is that Russia is doing everything they can to avoid rebels using chemical attack-false flags. If possible they would like to limit further US intervention-even when the Idlib-operation would take more time.
Complications are the US/Israeli strikes on Iran/Hezbollah targets in Syria. There are over 50 jihadi-groups. Iran did bomb a Saudi-backed Kurdish group in northern Iraq a few days ago. Some jihadi groups may be willing to talk-with sometimes "moderate extremists being killed by extreme extremists".
https://southfront.org/us-led-coalition-to-launch-final-operation-against-isis-in-syria-within-hours-report/ From the comments-the US is renaming terrorist groups, transporting them to fight Assad. When IS members shave their beards and dress like SDF the Kurds in the SDF are "not happy". With in Manbij the US and Turkey cooperating against the Kurds there may be a shift of Kurdish forces towards the pro-Assad side.

https://www.debka.com/while-irans-leaders-and-allies-confer-on-idlib-shiite-iraq-implodes-in-their-faces/ DJ-After the Iraq-elections the chaos there only did worsen.

Overall; with more smokescreens and chaos the risks in all of the middle east is increasing by the hour. I would not rule out "rebels" attacking US forces in Syria to provoke US attacks on pro-Assad forces (including Iran, Russian). Most likely the US was involved in several drone-attacks on Russian bases in Syria. Russian and Syrian forces cooperate-US airstrikes did kill Russian PMC's (Private Military Contractors=Vagner).

The build up of both (pro)US and Russian/Iran forces in the region is creating a powderkeg. It may be hard NOT to get some incidents....
(For instance Syrian Air Force using the same radar-identification as Russian Air Force-when the US or Israel wants to bring down a plane they may not know if it is Russian or Syrian !)

Israeli News Live did mention up to 200 US/UK special forces in Idlib with up to 100.000 jihadi-fighters (10.000 of them alquaida-even the US consider them as terrorists.) Will the US use chemical-false flag to save alquaida ? Is the US willing to kill Russians and Iranians because they stopped regime change ? A possible scenario may be Turkey giving "rebels" Turkish uniforms to fight Kurds (in Syria, Iraq, Turkey)

We cannot solve our problems with the same thinking we used when we created them.

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3173-russia-imposes-no-fly-zone-for-israeli-military-aircraft-around-syria

DJ-The Israeli scenario in wich Israeli fighters used a Russian plane to hide behind-and Syria did shoot down the Russian plane-could be similar to a possible MH17 scenario (july 2014-"the west" claims Putin did it...a Joint Investigation Team includes the Ukraine)

http://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/09/syria-israel-provocation-kills-russian-soldiers-russia-will-take-political-revenge.html#

Korea;

http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/national/2018/09/19/0301000000AEN20180919004758315.html DJ-North- and South-Korea talking must be a nightmare for the US military-industrial-criminals. The MIC needs wars al around the globe.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2018_China%E2%80%93United_States_trade_war The US-China "trade war" is about global control.

Putin and Erdogan met in Soschi to deal with Syria-for the time being. Russia-Mongolia-China did have very large joined military drills and are working on further military integration.

In this trade-war at the long term the US may not be in the best position-for now. The Shanghai Cooperation Organisation https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shanghai_Cooperation_Organisation is more-and-more "cooperating in many fields" and has "ties" with South Africa, Venezuela, Nicaragua (etc).

DJ-In the (alternative) media discussion on how to see the latest Israel-Russia incident.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-09-19/decoding-putins-response-attack-syria claim it was a NATO-set up to start a further escalation. (DJ-I'm not convinced )

http://theduran.com/russian-il-20-downed-by-syrian-missile-russia-blames-israel-israel-blames-syria-video/ DJ-The Duran thinks Israel wanted to show that it could attack anywere in Syria when Israel did see a reason to do so.
-Israel did attack Iran/Hezbollah targets near the main Russian air base in NW Syria. (Thereby is Israel giving aid to Idlib alquaida terrorists under siege).
-Netanyahu and Putin (and MoD Shoigu and Lieberman) did have "strong words" on the incident.

https://www.debka.com/russia-to-beef-up-air-defenses-aircraft-to-curtail-israeli-air-operations-in-syria/ The outcome will be that Israel (and others) will have less access to Syrian airspace.

http://thesaker.is/ also has good info (MSM is doing again not their job)

DJ-Both in Korea/East Asia and Syria SW Asia "the west" is marginalized and not in control. (DJ-The UK is in brexit-disaster, US has a post-election/pre-election chaos, France Macron also facing strong opposition, does the France-UK-US coalition want a conflict to distract from internal chaos ?)

The EU is meeting on refugees. https://www.eu2018.at/calendar-events/political-events/Salzburg-Summit.html They claim that due to their policies there are less refugees. In reality the Syria-conflict is limited to a few frontlines-so less Syrian refugees.

DJ-I put some links first;

https://www.debka.com/russia-declares-electronic-war-on-israel-ranging-over-syria-e-mediterranean/

DJ-The headlines tell the main story-indicates what is coming. Russia, Syria, Iran most likely are working on a "final plan"for Syria-with Turkey, Lebanon.

DJ-In my opinion a very likely deal is that when Turkey is willing to give up its "rebels" in NW Syria Russia and Iran are willing to deal with the Kurds. The Kurds have a choice; join pro-Assad forces in some form (maybe with some limited Kurdish rule in some area's) or destruction. Maybe Turkey might be willing to accept some "rebels" from NW Syria.

Goal is to bring all of Syria under Assad control. The bigger goal is that Russia-Iran-China show they are in control over (most of) Asia.

When "diplomacy"can do the main job there will be limited fighting. "Rebels" and Kurds without supplies do not fight. It also would take away any excuse for further western intervention.

On the longer term Russia-Iran-China want the US (and its proxies like IS) out of Iraq, Afghanistan.

The shift-worsening-is not only the outcome of the downing of the Russian plane but also of the attack in Iran on a military parade (in reaction to Iran airstrikes on Saudi backed Kurdish terrorist in north Iraq. Some Kurds have IS links.)

Most likely Israel is doing everything they can to limit the damage. Most likely the Russian may have also S400's in Syria for self-defence (and other weapons). https://www.debka.com/mivzak/netanyahu-to-meet-trump-possibly-el-sisi-on-un-assembly-sidelines/ and https://www.debka.com/mivzak/israeli-security-cabinet-meets-tuesday-on-crisis-with-russia/.

Israel is not going to start a war with Russia. Putin may be more popular than Trump in Israel, a war has to be winable....( In 2017 Trump was more popular in Israel, https://www.forbes.com/sites/kenrapoza/2017/08/16/shock-poll-most-countries-prefer-putin-over-trump/#d10124d6dcf1-but naming Jerusalem as the Israel capitol, putting the US embassy there will not work for long)

DJ-We had an anti-terrorist police operation not far from were I live yesterday. Looks serious; http://hisz.rsoe.hu/alertmap/database/index.php?pageid=event_desc&edis_id=SPS-20180928-64817-NLD and https://www.debka.com/mivzak/dutch-police-arrest-7-men-plotting-major-terror-attack/

The Dutch government has to explain why they did send money/aid to "Syrian rebels" that are considered to be terrorists. (Dutch people who joined those groups-with support of the secret services-I know a mosq that was used for recruiting, over 30 people from this region joined IS a few years ago-nobody stopped them ! Now those "fighters" are treated as terrorists eventhough the Dutch government did not stop them "they went to Turkey" but also supported the "rebels")

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/opinion-editorial/hal-turner-commentary/3206-had-meetings and http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3207-covert-intel-massive-israeli-strikes-against-syria-imminent-u-s-may-participate

DJ-The F.UK.US coalition-with Israel may be preparing a major operation against Syria. (In support of "moderate rebels/IS etc.) This means western attacks on Russians and Iranians in Syria who are there on the request of the Syrian government.....

It looks like in the US the democrats blame Russia for loosing an election, republicans will blame China....please save us from those kind of "politics"!

DJ-My speculation (and nothing more that that-the target of a major terrorist attack in the Netherlands is "kept out of the news") could be that there were plans to attack https://gelredome.nl/nl/evenement/24-11-2018-qlimax-2018 that would be three years after the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/November_2015_Paris_attacks.

DJ-"The west" want to make Syria a "Viet Nam" for Russia and China. http://theduran.com/devils-deal-did-turkey-outmaneuver-russia-with-idlib-agreement-video/ Good story; Turkey is paying "moderate"alquaida terrorist in Idlib. (They protest they do not want Turkish Lira but Syrian Pounds). The alquaida THS is controlling 70% of Idlib-area. Chechens, (Chinese) Uyghurs and others are controlling the other 30%. The west is supporting those "moderate rebels" (also in Yemen, Libya, IS is also fighting Russians in the Ukraine).

https://southfront.org/syrian-war-report-september-27-2018-several-european-states-deliver-chemical-weapons-components-to-idlib/

DJ-Several scenario's;

-https://www.debka.com/mivzak/netanyahu-reveals-existence-of-a-second-nuclear-site-in-tehran/ "The west/Israel" are already at war with Iran-not so open war with Russia. For Israel they claim Iran should have been attacked some time ago-both the nuclear facilities in Iran and Iran presence in the region.

-A "cold peace" with Turkey getting control over parts of Syria and Iraq (with US support-the US slowly dumping the Kurds like in Manbij). A "frozen conflict" (like the Ukraine, Georgia etc.) with limited military action most of the time. (For the west it would be a military burden but the idea would be that that burden-in combination with economic warfare-"trade wars"would be much more a burden for Russia-Iran-China.)

-Another scenario could be the "Syrian war" going into Turkey with the Kurds, IS, alquaida (already taking Erdogan hostage-if Turkey drops alquaida they will attack Turkey)fighting Erdogan-another Turkish "civil war". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissolution_of_the_Ottoman_Empire
(DJ-Turkey has many different groups, western oriented to extreme islamic, it is not a stable society.)

Putin's strategy was to choose the conflicts he wanted to fight, avoid other conflicts. That strategy resulted in Assad still ruling most of Syria instead of IS. That strategy also stimulated sales of Russian weapons around the globe, Russian influence. Putin does not want an all-out war with "the west" (simply that would be the end of life on Earth-most western countries do not want such a scenario as well.)

The "stability" is not much more than a balancing act that may go wrong.
(In the background escalating climate change(disasters) and economic/political chaos in the US and EU (a.o. Brexit, Euro-crisis).

DJ-While the US want to create an "Arab NATO" https://southfront.org/u-s-stepping-up-efforts-to-form-arab-nato-to-confront-iran/ most NATO countries stick to the Iran-deal. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-09-28/eu-uk-russia-china-join-together-dodge-us-sanctions-iran and https://southfront.org/eu-uk-russia-and-china-join-together-to-dodge-us-sanctions-on-iran/

Even further: https://southfront.org/russia-turkey-france-and-germany-will-hold-meeting-on-syria-in-october/ DJ-Erdogan visits Germany this weekend-wants better trade relations with EU (to be a part of the New Silk Road for China trade, Turkey also with "Turkstream" russian gas to the EU and buying S-300 from Russia.
A further goal for Erdogan may be to get the EU in the Astana-Syria peace proces (with Russia and Iran) as an alternative for the Geneva-US-led-talks. Turkey is also a growing trade partner for both Russia and Iran.)

https://southfront.org/russia-is-ready-to-provide-iraq-with-syria-like-military-assistance/

DJ-There is still no government in Bagdad-maybe new elections on their way ? Russia may bring stability were the US/NATO did bring IS and chaos.

Just some zero-hedge posts on how world war three is developing;

-https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-01/jim-rickards-three-way-train-wreck-about-derail-markets DJ-The US-central thinking is wrong ! The EU is moving away from the US-why should the US save the US$ (at cost from the €) ? Why should the EU accept US pressure to buy US or Saudi energy ( instead of Iran or Russian ?)

-https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-02/us-threatens-destroy-russian-nuclear-capable-missile-system-if-necessary and http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3226-u-s-ambassador-warns-russia-us-will-attack-russia-itself-over-certain-missile-development

-https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-02/hillary-said-so-iran-quotes-wikileaks-un-prove-saudis-are-state-sponsors-terror DJ-Saudi Arabia was the main 9-11 perpetrator-"the West" does not want to see that US$ enabled this crime. (Just like most people do not want to know who put the nazi's in power and why-just 15 years after the Russian revolution (caused by Germany transporting Lenin from Switzerland to Russia to end the two front war in World War 1).

DJ-https://www.debka.com/strategic-breakthrough-for-iran-in-unimpeded-drone-missile-attack-on-e-syria/ there are several "hot conflicts" escalating with other conflicts getting hotter (Nicaragua, Venezuela, Ukraine etc.).

DJ-There are enough military/intel people in Israel that want an other way in dealing with neighbours. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-01/insider-attacks-retired-army-major-laments-us-middle-east-policy-blowback

DJ-Maybe the EU, "another Israel" or an other "third party" can bring the US to its senses. The US is putting sanctions/tradewars on almost all other countries-and damaging itself by it !

(DJ-Dutch steel-from Indian Tata-steel-exports to the US increased. The US uses this steel to make a.o. cars. At the end those cars are getting that expensive-due to US sanctions-the US can forget exporting those cars...)

DJ-The 8-o-clock evening news in the Netherlands was full of a claim Russian military intelligence (GRU) tried to hack the OPCW in The Hague april 10. They did this with mobile phones-is the claim-from the back of a rented (Dutch) car at a parking space of a hotel next to the OPCW.
At that time the OPCW was looking at Skripal and Douma-stories.

Dutch military intelligence claimed to have intervened when the GRU started their technology for the hack. Stopped the 4 GRU-members and put them on the next plane to Moscow.

DJ-Why is this in the news now ? (via a pressconference of the Dutch MIVD-military intel) Russia claims they do not need a hack at the OPCW since they are a member of the OPCW-have access to the network....

DJ-In the news story also claims on the MH17 story (GRU trying to block investigation-in my opinion the Joint Investigation Team can not function when Ukraine is part of it.) and GRU involved in hacking the doping-sports-test facility in Switzerland.

I do have serious doubts on how the "west" is investigating these events. Not for a moment I do believe Russians to be saints-but it is the west wich invaded Afghanistan in 2001, Iraq in 2003, started wars in Libya, Syria, Yemen, Ukraine etc. It is NATO moving towards Russia borders.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-04/us-indicts-7-russians-international-hacking-spree and https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-45746837 Russian reaction https://www.rt.com/news/440356-russia-coordinated-hacking-accusations-nato/

Not only "bad Russia" also "bad China" https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-04/explosive-report-details-chinese-infiltration-apple-amazon-and-cia and https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-04/step-aside-russia-pence-declare-china-top-us-foreign-enemy

Some background;

-http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3237-russia-tells-u-s-close-camp-rikban-and-remove-troops-from-tanf-syria-fast

Furtheremore; Brexit, Italy/EU crises (also a.o. with Romania, Hungary, Poland-Eurocrises), NATO-crisis (Turkey) problems for Merkel in Germany, "politcal"(???) chaos in the US.

Not that Russia-Iran-China do not have (serious) problems but they are gaining global power while the "west" is losing it.

Do we get to a position were the US claim they run the world or there will not be a world left ????

DJ; Good article on the "bad Russia/bad China" propaganda from NATO. The conclusion, we saw such a campain earlier as an attempt to get public support for the invasion of Iraq in 2003. http://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/10/how-the-us-runs-public-relations-campaigns-trump-style-against-russia-and-china.html#
(Bolton then even threatened the children of the head of the OPCW if the OPCW did not go for the WMD claim against Iraq.)

https://www.facebook.com/JoseBarbaNueva Joe Neubarth (ex-US navy) has been warning-not only for climate change but also for the US to start a nuclear war (in reaction to climate change-Trump does not longer deny climate change-"but the party is now")

DJ-A worst case scenario could be the US claiming only the US has a right to dominate the world-if that gets under pressure the US "may end the world".

A timeline of the US trade war on China; https://southfront.org/trumps-trade-war-and-escalation-of-us-china-standoff/

https://www.debka.com/us-to-give-israel-more-f-35s-to-face-s-300s-deploy-a-squadron-in-emirates/ DJ-The US wants Israel to remain "active"over Syria (most likely also to proof the F35-JSF has some value-S300/S400 may detect the "stealth"plane-also the noise make it traceble.( The F35 makes more noice than the F16-it is in the sky giving away its position)

http://theduran.com/us-secretary-of-the-interiors-idiotic-idea-for-naval-blockade-against-russian-energy-supplies-video/ The US war-talk is pushing oil-prices-allthough the US is the largest oil producer (by fracking itself to destruction) it is not the largest energy exporter. The EU, India, China need Russian energy.

US sanctions on Russia made Russia stronger, US sanctions on the EU is making the US weaker....total stupidity !

From the video; "If these remarks reflect the US vision of the world "God help us". (DJ-The US is gone mad-for the moment-hope it will not last much longer.) "Russia is not Libya or Iraq"-the US does not get it....

DJ-What to expect in the coming time on "wars"?

After Tito died in Yugoslavia, Serbia wanted better relations with Russia (for cultural, religious reasons, orthodox church etc.). "The west" was happy the Sowjet Union had become past history.

To stop Serbs getting close to Russia "the west" did support the break up of Yugoslavia, by recognizing Slovenia, Croatia.

The goal "the west" had with Syria is to break it up in several parts; Kurdish, Sunni etc.

That scenario will be used against R-I-C, Russia, Iran and China. Supporting minorities, political, religious etc the "western" goal will be to break up Russia, Iran, China. From supporting Kurds, Azerbijani, Baluchi etc in Iran, to Uyghurs in China, muslims, political minorities in Russia.

In reaction "the east" may try to break up "western countries", from giving support to the Catalunya, Scottish etc. movements, to breaking up NATO, EU.

The (not so) United States may face "movements" to break up the US. Texas, California, Alaska, Hawaii, "New-England" breaking away from the US, claims of land by Mexico....

Since an all-out (nuclear) war would be to destructive a "global civil war"-with companies getting exploitation rights for resources being protected by Private Military Contractors etc, privatization of war....

DJ-The Khashoggi murder is pushing several crises;

-The US powerstruggle with Trump defending trade-deals with IS-audi-family "kingdom" and "opposition" trying to attack Trump

-A crisis in Saudi Arabia, the crown prince being responsible for several disasters

-Another crisis in the US-Saudi-Israel coalition. Israel preparing for military action against Gaza as a distraction.

https://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/10/saudis-admit-khashoggi-murder.html# and http://theduran.com/saudi-arabias-version-of-events-jamal-khashoggi-died-during-a-fist-fight-video/

On the background is the struggle for "world domination". (DJ-do not get me wrong, I am not anti-US. When one country "wants to rule the world" that country will get "blood on its hands". The Dutch were in that position in the 17th century, after that the UK got in that position till 1918.)

https://southfront.org/syrian-war-report-october-19-2018-isis-captures-700-hostages-including-us-eu-citizens/ DJ-In Syria Putin is getting more control via (a.o.) Turkey and Iran. The US and IS are allies, creating chaos is a way in wich US is trying to get control over oil (in Libya, Venezuela, Iraq etc). Of course that strategy will backfire-the US had more influence in Iraq with Saddam Hussein fighting Iran in the 1980's then the US has now.

The Kurds are moving away from the US-that only is using them. When Russia may be able to get better deals (via influence in Turkey, Iraq, Iran) Kurds will work with Russia.

Via fracking the US has moved to #1 oil/energy producer (Saudi#2, Russia#3, Iran#5). China and India are the largest buyers of energy. Russia is the dominating EurAsian energy exporter. On the longer term-when the US does not need Middle East energy there is no point in the petro-dollar or US dominance in the Middle East.

The US-China trade war is making China investing in Europe, India etc. US-EU sanctions on Russia did make Russia stronger (they now make themselves what they did buy in the US or find other trade-partners) and boost Russia-Turkey/Iran trade.

Still the US market is very important for China-closing that market (and still talk of "free trade" ) is a serious blow for China.

The doomsday-clock is still https://thebulletin.org/doomsday-clock/ 2 minutes to midnight at best....

The "west" is in a crisis, from Brexit (50% for 50% against EU in the UK) being a major problem both for the UK and the EU. NATO-Middle East "links", with (former) US allies-Turkey, Pakistan working with Iran and Russia. The not very united US in political chaos....

DJ-The stockexchange crash has to do with "problems" with the 400 billion US weaponsdeal with Saudi Arabia. http://theduran.com/the-earthquake-in-international-alliances/

https://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/10/khashoggi-drama-a-deal-is-no-longer-possible-erdogan-demands-that-mbs-goes.html#

https://sputniknews.com/asia/201810201069063472-indonesia-su-35-deal-sanctions/

Saudi Arabia is buying Russian S-400's. The US is putting sanctions on Russia, China, Germany, South Korea, Venezuela, Nicaragua, etc. etc. etc.

DJ, https://www.debka.com/erdogans-khashoggi-speech-is-meant-to-boost-his-muslim-credentials-and-turkish-lira/ The US-Saudi-Israel coalition is crashing.

Turkey may move-with Iran and Russia-to a Syria deal wich will end any bases for US presence in Syria, Iraq or Afghanistan....

(By the way rumours of a coup-attempt https://www.thenational.ae/world/mena/saudi-arabia-dismisses-rumours-of-coup-attempt-1.723754 in Saudi Arabia a few months ago have to be seen in a new light.)

The international situation is getting worse....(Mexico-US border problems may be welcomed as a distraction)

DJ; https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-23/trump-approval-hits-record-high-dems-fear-low-millennial-hispanic-turnout

What better way to "stop Trump" in the coming mid-term elections than sabotaging the 400 billion Saudi weapons deal that provides 600.000 US jobs ?

DJ-An "elite"/deep state-whatever, wants to get rid of Trump at ALL cost.
The Khashoggi-murder by KSA is a way to do so.

Sanctions on the Saud-family will push this "clan" away from the US. End the US-petro-dollar. https://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/10/how-will-caligula-fall.html#

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-23/new-migrant-caravan-forms-former-trump-campaign-adviser-calls-political-gift DJ-I do not believe in coincidents-this is planned.

Some other "movements" on the global battlefield;

-https://www.veteranstoday.com/2018/10/22/war-again-putin-will-take-libya-like-syria/ DJ-China is the main investor in Africa, not only oil but also food production is getting essential here for China. Russia can provide "safety and stability".

-https://www.veteranstoday.com/2018/10/20/iran-south-korea-plan-comprehensive-boost-in-ties/

-https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-23/taiwan-hold-live-fire-drill-near-spratly-islands-preparation-chinese-invasion

-https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-10-23/israel-defense-chief-says-no-choice-war-forces-muster-along-gaza-border

DJ-China is trying to get a grip on the global economy. It needs foreign energy, from Russia, but also Iran, Angola, Nigeria, Venezuela, Korea, and (against Yuan) Saudi Arabia, Kuwait UAE. It also needs markets for its goods. That is why Chinese companies are working on distribution centers in the EU, Africa, Latin America..That is why Russia and China are working together in the transport sector, from China-EU-railways, oil/gas pipelines to shipping and aircraft.

The US is trying to stop the growth of China. This is simply unacceptable for China and its allies.

http://www.atimes.com/article/asia-and-europe-sit-down-for-trade-talks-not-sanctions//?fbclid=IwAR1i2xO5O8zt9fVB7Y7hp7ptWYclXAUxZQm-Fjw-IrOcGwTeXL3ZlKOhAp8 DJ-The EU is in several crises, from Brexit, Italy-budget, to Euro, Eastern Europe etc. The (US/NATO made) refugee-crisis is "killing" Merkel in Germany. The EU very badly needs economic growth to survive. With the US putting sanctions on Northstream I + II, Turkstream, pushing US (much to expensive-due to corruption) energy and weapons the EU is moving to an EurAsia-market to also try to keep some influence in Africa.

The powerbase Saudi Arabia has is in US-oil-dollars and oil-reserves. Another goal will be to "un-arm" Saudi Arabia-as the main funder for alquaida, IS etc. Maybe Saudi Arabia will remain one country but it may loose control of its oil, pay for Russian/China investments in railways etc.

DJ-After the mid-term elections US foreign policy most likely will even get more "Bolton"style-this will damage/destroy most US relations. https://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/11/a-short-take-on-the-midterm-elections.html#

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-07/us-declares-war-troika-tyranny-pushing-them-closer-russia DJ-It is not only the relationship with Nicaragua, Cuba, Venezuela that is "pressured". There can not be a "Condor-2" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Condor ever again.

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/u-s-national-news/3410-trump-putin-summit-in-paris-cancelled-please-america-make-preps

Russia and China are doing bussiness-deals, including energy and weapons, allover the world. The US want to claim that is an act of agression....

https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/syria-and-saudi-arabia-to-potentially-reconcile-after-uae-reopens-damascus-embassy/
DJ-Saudi Arabia was one of the main supporters of IS and alquaida (also other Gulf States did provide all kind of support-but also Turkey, Israel, US/NATO).

In Syria https://isis.liveuamap.com/en/2018/6-november-report-says-iraqi-pmf-hashd-controls-30-fortified the break up of "rebels" into several fractions is giving room to IS to start offensives against the SDF in East Syria. The Syrian Democratic Forces breaking up in Arab tribes (some of them once part of IS) and the Kurdish groups moving north to stop Turkey. (Allthough IS etc. also has Kurdish members).

In NW Syria jihadi's are shelling Aleppo, Hama etc, pro-Assad forces. Most likely Syria and Russia will start military action in NW Syria, Turkey may start operations (against the Kurds) in East Syria. (Some Kurdish groups are now moving towards Assad-away from the US. Erdogan has to talk with Assad. Kurdish groups that give up on a Kurdish State are not a goal for Turkey.)

http://english.yonhapnews.co.kr/national/2018/11/07/0301000000AEN20181107006752315.html With North Korea-US talks moving slow-Korea-talks still go on. (DJ-and with that South Korea talking with Russia, China).

The basic idea that China may not claim the South China Sea-but the US may claim all of the Pacific is not working.

DJ-If anything Russia-China relationship seems to be getting stronger, with both countries working together around the globe-sharing the same interests.

DJ-An earlier IDF operation in the Gaza strip went wrong. Hal Turner warned for Hamas firing all the way up to Tel Aviv. So far one missile came close to Jerusalem.

Netanyahu may blame Iran for these Hamas attacks (while Hamas did get support from Qatar in the past.)

THIS IS A MAJOR DEVELOPMENT could move towards Syria, Iran, (Russia). The US has sided with Israel and may join Israel in actions against Iran.

DJ-Gulf States (UAE, KSA) are moving towards accepting Assad in Syria. So "it is now or never" for the war-mongers in the US and Israel....

(The Gulf countries are giving up support for their rebels, want to do bussiness with Assad. The EU is moving towards Russia-Iran-China. If you want to stop these developments it is time to act-and act now.)

Israel is preparing for an attack on the Russian Hmeimim air base inside Syria. Russian military said that Israeli reconnaissance aircraft are trying to locate the S300 at the Khmeimim base in the countryside of Latakia.

MORE:

On Thursday, 8 November, suitcases filled with $15 Million in cash, were sent to Gaza from Qatar. The cash was allegedly to be used to pay HAMAS government officials salaries in GAZA, which have not been paid in months due to Israel cutting off revenues to HAMAS. Here is a photo of the actual suitcases of cash being transported to Gaza:

AMERICAN DOLLARS?   Why American dollars instead of Qatar Riyals? Or Egyptian Pounds?   Or EUROS? Because it is AMERICA that is behind all this trouble. Explained below . . .

Rather than altruistically pay the past-due salaries for HAMAS in Gaza, the cash was actually to pay for the rocket barrage attacks upon Israel . . . and worse, the sending of Israeli Special Forces INTO Gaza to "kidnap" the top HAMAS military Commander, was part of the overall plan!

The reason those forces were caught WAS PART OF THE PLAN - to cause the reactionary upheaval we've seen for the past two days.

QATAR financed this whole thing as part of its PLAN to get a reason for Syria TO BE ATTACKED so as to get QATAR's natural gas pipeline through Syria to Europe!   

All the key players in this sordid affair, from Israeli officials and high ranking military people, to HAMAS, are getting PAID OFF . . . in American dollars.

On Sunday, Israeli troops entered Gaza covertly to try kidnapping a top HAMAS military commander, but got into a firefight and killed him. This lead to the current rocket launches from Gaza.

The Israeli troops were caught because it was PLANNED they be caught. It was PLANNED they get into a firefight and even get killed . . . to provide a public spectacle which would cover the overt actions now taking place.   

The entire series of events was PLANNED . . . meaning the Israeli Forces were betrayed by their own government. The Israeli government sent those men into Gaza KNOWING they were going to be betrayed, caught, fired upon, and perhaps killed . . but did it anyway because it NEEDS a public spectacle reason to attack Syria. Getting Israeli troops killed and then blaming on Iranian actions would provide the reason that average Israeli citizens would need to support Israeli military action against Iran in Syria.

The rocket launches from Gaza, are actually a PAID EFFORT to SET-UP IRAN for the issues taking place in Gaza/Israel, and thus justify an Israeli ATTACK upon Iranian assets . . . . inside SYRIA!   

In order to attack those assets, Israel has to get past the new Russian S-300 missile systems in Syria, some of which are at the Russian Base in Hmeimim . . . which will HAVE to be destroyed.   But the DESIRED end result in destroying the Russian base and Iranian assets inside Syria is the exact same goal it has always been: TOPPLE the Syrian government which is the single roadblock to a QATAR GAS PIPELINE through Syria to Europe!

Thus, the information now out today is, everything the world is seeing take place in Israel, is a set-up to justify an Israeli attack upon Syria, to remove the Syrian government roadblock for a QATAR gas pipeline to Europe, which was the sole reason the entire Syrian "civil war" was started years ago!   

Getting that pipeline through Syria would OUST Russia as the main gas supplier for Europe, and THAT GOAL has been and remains the single purpose of US/European efforts inside Syria. They never changed their goal. They never intended to stop the shenanigans inside Syria. It is now, and has been all along, an effort to halt Russia gas supplies to Europe.

Hundreds-of-Billions of dollars are at stake EVERY YEAR once that QATAR gas pipeline starts supplying gas to Europe. Of course, there's plenty of money in those hundreds-of-billions to buy off whoever needs to be bought off to make this happen!

Russia points out that an Israeli attack upon its bases in Syria would be met with force. That same force can also be used against any "other countries" who attempt to assist Israel, (Read USA & Coalition) and THAT, ladies and gentlemen gets us to war with Russia . . . which seems to be a US/European goal.

The entire spectacle of what's taking place in Israel is a ruse. Designed to blame Iran, justify Israeli attacks upon Iranian assets inside Syria, taking Russia out along the way, so those at the top can reap hundreds-of-billions a year from the new QATAR gas pipeline through Syria.

In Syria https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/syrian-army-reinforcements-reach-kurdish-lines-in-northern-syria/ a Turkish invasion into Kurdish held area's could push the Kurds to pro-Assad forces. (The SDF-US creation is history. In the south some Arab-tribes are paid by the US to keep the illusion alive. Kurdish forces have to prepare to stop Turkey in the north and Iraq.

https://www.almasdarnews.com/article/israel-allegedly-trains-against-s-300-system-in-greek-war-drills/ The IDF keeps preparing for action in Syria. https://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/11/short-conflict-with-gaza-exposes-israels-weakness.html# The Gaza-"incident" gives Israel every reason to be very carefull;
-Internal division, Netanyahu wants to keep good contacts with Putin AND Trump. Lieberman stepped down over the Gaza-crisis.
-Israel is not ready for a major conflict with Hamas/Gaza, Hezbollah-Lebanon/Syria and possible Iran (or even Russia).
-Better relations with UAE, Saudi Arabia results in nice words but little else. In a major conflict Israel will pay a high price.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-13/end-game-afghanistan-beginning DJ; the Taliban is having talks with Russia, Pakistan, China. All of them want US/NATO to move out of Afghanistan (and stop creating chaos in Asia and Africa).

So the EU is moving to support the Astana-peace proces (Russia-Iran-Turkey) over Syria, finds itself sometimes supporting the same groups in Libya as Russia, wants an end to the Afghan and Iraq wars.

DJ-Hamas-in Gaza-is backed by Qatar and Turkey. The PLO on the West Bank is backed by KSA. Israel (and the US) are giving support to the Kurds (both in Syria and Iraq) that are fighting Turkey.

Basicly-US is supporting the Kurds to attack inside another NATO-member. The Gaza-conflict is part of a conflict between US-Saudi-Israel and Turkey, Qatar. "The west" is fighting itself in the Middle East !

https://southfront.org/money-silver-gold-catrs-isis-fighters-received-bonuses-for-using-chemical-weapons-report/ While the US/NATO would like to blame chemical weapon use on Assad, Iran-Russia IS linked groups have chemical weapons and did use them in the past.

Turkey may send in its forces in both Syria and Iraq. US forces in those countries-and Afghanistan-should leave if they do not want massive losses.
US/NATO forces may loose all backing in these countries both from governments and rebelgroups/minorities.

DJ-After the Syrian war it is the Saudi-led gulf states that have to repair damage. https://www.moonofalabama.org/2018/11/syria-back-in-the-arab-fold.html# To stop growing Iran/Turkey influence (both non-Arab) a strong Syria-under Assad-is needed.

The US is not happy with the outcome; https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-19/dozens-princes-turn-against-mbs-king-salmans-brother-waits-wings, http://theduran.com/iron-mike-pence-stares-down-putin-in-apec-showdown/ and http://theduran.com/opec-plus-putins-move-to-control-energy-market-with-saudi-partnership-video/. Russia is becoming the "OPEC-plus" leader (with oil/energy no longer linked to the US$).

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-19/iraqi-dinar-may-replace-dollar-and-euro-iran-iraq-trade, https://sputniknews.com/asia/201811191069936647-india-china-joint-projects-afghanistan/,
https://sputniknews.com/asia/201811191069936185-india-russia-military-exercise/.

DJ-Iran is strategicly that important for Russia, India and China they want US sanctions to do as little as possible damage-maybe even replace the US as trade partners with Iran (for oil).

The EU is divided in itself-not very helpfull for anybody with the Brexit, Italy-budget crises etc. US energy for the long term is not interesting for the EU. Not only for its price and transportationcosts (ships instead of pipelines) also on the long term the US can not keep producing oil-via fracking. (Via pipelines energy from as far as Malaysia/Indonesia might be cheaper than the US product.)

DJ-Several developments;

-https://www.debka.com/mivzak/russia-offers-to-mediate-palestinian-israeli-dispute/ Since the US IS Israel it is not in any position to mediate much longer. Netanyahu and Putin did meet several times a year-was a special guast at victory-day this may in Moscow. Russia would like to have more influence in Israel-may offer helping offshore oil/gas exploration with Israel.

-http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3478-france-deploys-sigint-ship-to-syria-new-gear-to-jam-s-300-system-for-attack and https://www.debka.com/a-french-spy-ship-reserved-for-trouble-spots-joins-uss-truman-in-syrian-waters/ DJ-The France-UK-US (FUKUS) coalition is used in a different way by each of the partners. France (and Germany) could even join the Astana talks (Russia-Iran-Turkey)-the French military-just like the Turkish presence in north Syria-is there for national goals.

-http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3479-after-s-300-arrives-syria-finds-new-purpose-for-s-200-missiles Using the S-200 against ships/land targets increases the pressure on the US to get out (of Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan-there is no international backing any longer for US troops in those countries. The EU would like to return refugees to those countries and find the US blocking that.)

-https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-23/final-push-idlib-will-come-soon and https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-23/we-are-ready-fight-tonight-pentagon-releases-video-massive-f-35-combat-drill, https://sputniknews.com/middleeast/201811241070094572-iran-rouhani-muslims-unity/

DJ-Turkey/Erdogan would like to become the leading Muslim-nation. Iran is willing to cooperate on that-this (and the Kurds, Iran-oil) is bringing Iran and Turkey together-with other countries likely to join; Jordan, Pakistan, Egypt, Indonesia, Malaysia. The Saudi-Islam-leadership is at its end.

The Russian goal in Syria is to limit the fighting. Rebels in Idlib that are willing to talk and move to another country could avoid further fighting. Since most of the Gulf-states are renewing diplomatic relations with the Assad-government in Syria the US (and Israel) may be the only sponsors for IS and other "moderate terrorists Most of the rebels do start realize their war is lost and over and "damage-control-modus" may be wise.

Saudi Arabia has to drop the US-petro-$ or face several countries switching to Iran-oil. With the US-due to fracking-becoming the #1 oil/gas producer in the world (trying to force the EU to buy US-energy) Saudi Arabia is moving towards Russia in an OPEC-plus modus (and with that moving away further from the US).

Energy is one leg of the global power-balance. Weapons is another leg. Due to bribes the US did manage to be a leading global weapon-player. Russia, China, Iran can make better weapons for better prices....so also here the US is losing ground (and try to force the EU to buy US weapons that are overpriced and simply not able to deliver the job they need to do.

DJ-To go on a little more on the present situation; the US is pushing
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/China, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pakistan together by sanctions, cold wars etc.

Together these four countries have almost 2 billion inhabitants, most of the oil/gas-biggest economy and are getting better foreign relations-all over the globe.

Most likely Russia has troops in Cuba, China has major investments in Venezuela. In Nicaragua China is involved in (plans for) the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nicaragua_Canal. China will defend those investments.

https://www.chinadialogue.net/article/show/single/en/10420-Mexico-looks-to-boost-trade-with-China-as-NAFTA-talks-falter DJ-"Trump is not a friend of Mexico" to put it polite-still 80% of Mexico exports goes to the US. China is interested in getting more than 1% by buying oil/gas etc.

The US has no strategy to deal with the outcome of its own policies. Outplacement of jobs to China in the 80's/90's made China stronger (and did end lots of industrial jobs in the US and EU). Sanctions on Russia and Iran made them stronger. Insulting Pakistan after using Pakistan (already in the 70's) against the Soviet Union (Afghanistan) is making that country a partner of China (and Iran).

When I (DJ) look at the local news here there are investments in railroads to deal with growing trade with China in the Netherlands and Germany.

The EU NEEDS Russian (and Iran) energy-the US has no long term alternative. China is becoming the main energy-importer and therefor the main tradepartner for energy-exporters (like Russia, Iran but also Nigeria, Angola, Indonesia, Malaysia-the Gulf States/KSA have to adapt to the situation or lose marketshare !)

Somehow the US is failing to get the message that everybody else is getting; Russia/China are ruling the world-wether you like it or not !

For the US to start a military confrontation with Russia, Iran, China will bring the end of the US. The EU, India etc. are "on the move". The US has no other option than accepting it is not #1 any longer-but it may take some time (and a lot of economic pain-end of petro$)-damage control-modus would be wise for the US !

DJ-Since there is not much left for "the west" in Syria a new frontline had to be opened so the Military Industrial Complex MIC can keep selling weapons.

Hal Turner claims:
Many in the world are wondering why Russia used such force against Ukrainian vessels near the Kerch Strait Bridge between the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov the other day. It seemed a level of force far in excess of the seemingly harmless situation.   Turns out, the situation was anything BUT harmless.

COVERT INTEL is buzzing with word that a NATO Special Atomic Demolition Munition (SADM), a Diver deployable device, was being transported by Ukrainian and British Special Forces to the Kerch Strait to be used against the Crimean bridge.


DJ-In 2019 there will be presidential (march) and parlament (october) elections. Martial law will keep the corrupt-western backed-leaders in power. (Worse could be NATO asking Ukraine to become member. Already NATO is having drills in the Ukraine.)

DJ-In my opinion still the international situation is getting worse (high speed).

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-29/these-countries-are-quickly-and-quietly-dumping-dollar DJ-Dumping of US dollars (etc) can start slow-but at a certain point there is a tipping moment. Most likely Russia-India-China are preparing for that. (Once the British pound "ruled the world"-it had decades to reduce to the present status. Maybe two world wars were part of the proces-the UK did lose her empire.
One could claim that the fall of the US$ is a result of 9/11. But maybe it is "the wheel of time", linking the $ to oil in stead of gold may have been wise in the early 70's. The world did change since then.)

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3511-uh-oh-ukraine-asks-turkey-to-bar-russian-military-vessels-from-bosphorus-strait-time-of-war
DJ-The US is in so much debt to the international community that it can not repay that debt under "normal circumstances". Weimar-like hyper inflation is one option. The other option is to unable the international community in getting back its money. (That is why there is a US-China trade conflict escalating).
https://www.facebook.com/JoseBarbaNuevaJoe Neubarth has been warning for years that the US could go to global war due to a climate crisis. (Bring a nuclear winter to stop global warming and give the few million survivors a new start. (DJ-I refused to believe in that kind of ideas. International developments make me rethink these kind of mass-genocide scenario's.)

DJ-When there is a major war planned (bigger than the wars in Syria, Iraq, Libya wich were also planned) to keep an element of surprise-and while the US still has some strenght and allies-a "major war" (most likely world war 3) scenario may be a matter of weeks. (I hope I am very wrong in this.)

The Russian-led OPEC-plus https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-30/saudi-facing-opec-mutiny-members-object-problematic-us-influence is even moving further away from the US. (DJ-The Zero Hedge article is looking from an old US point of view. Both Turkey and Saudi Arabia are working with Russia, buying Russian weapons. There is a struggle between KSA and Turkey over wich country/leader can be the "leader of all Muslims" (Erdogan or MbS)-Russia is seen by both as an important ally. (The US is seen by both as a problem.)

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-11-30/wti-tumbles-below-50-biggest-monthly-plunge-2008 (DJ-US fracking oil is profitable at prices of 100+ US$-both Russia and Saudi Arabia want to damage US oil production. Countries like Iran, Venezuela etc. need the money-not in US$-and China-the main energy importer-wants low prices.)

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3513-israel-attacks-syria-again-fails DJ-Israel would like less air defense in Syria. Israel is unable to hit any (further) targets-wich also is a message to a possible F.UK.US idea of attack.

The divide-and-rule-agenda has been the basis for western interventions for a very long time. Bush sr. may have wanted a pro-US united Soviet Union.)

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-01/trump-xi-dinner-concludes-applause-lasted-longer-expected

DJ-The Sea-of-Azov incident may be part of a western plan to get more control over Turkey. To break the Black Sea link between Russia (Black Sea fleet in Crimea) and Syria. Another part of the plan may be to try to break the Russia-China link. Both Turkey and China are having strong (energy) ties with Russia. If the west wants to break those ties (try to blame Iran for actions against Turkey, China-false flag) the west has to come up with somethingh major.

Poroshenko will most likely lose the March 2019 elections. His own agenda may push him very close to war with Russia to stay in power. Saudi Arabia-MbS-may also be in a powerstruggle. (With the west willing to get a pro-US prince in power and MbS (and his group) moving towards Russia and China.)

In Israel Netanyahu's position is weak. With this much instability changes may come very fast and from places you may not expect them.

DJ-The US will not give up its claim of being the leading country in the world without a fight. Via its allies-the few that remain-it is loking for a way to further escalate tensions.
-Taiwan-versus China
-Israel-versus Iran
-Ukraine-versus Russia
The EU/NATO is divided as always with Poland (the present conservative catholic extremist government)-more or less-backing Kiev. Turkey still a NATO-member but working closely with Russia and Iran. The Brexit and Italy-budget crisis, the refugee crisis and Euro-crisis.

Most likely to stop some "hawks" in the west will be some military. But with this many crises (Poroshenko and Netanyahu facing corruption charges/elections) stability is far away.

Regime-change in Saudi Arabia could work out against the US. Time seems to be on the side of Russia-Iran-China. (In Syria the "western backed moderate terrorists"are killing each other, Kurds are fighting pro-Turkish groups in the Turkish held area's while pro-Assad forces may gain influence in Kurdish held area's (to stop IS).

For the EU there is not realy an alternative for Russian energy.

DJ-So Trump did not want to meet Putin at the G20 in Argentina ? OK-for Putin-gives time to start further talks with India and China ! https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-04/putin-initiates-trilateral-summit-india-and-china

DJ;
-China is working with Pakistan
-India has good relations with Russia
-Both India and China are main energy importers and buy energy from Russia and Iran
-The outcome of US sanctions (and NATO agression) is further cooperation not only between RIC (Russia-India-China) but also Pakistan, Iran, Turkey, Malaysia, Indonesia, Saudi Arabia (last three energy exporters).
-Soon most energy related deals will be done in other currency than the US$, Russia may become the main weapon exporter.

The (slow) movement is a very major event indicating we live in a post-US-dominated world.

https://www.presstv.com/Detail/2018/12/05/582044/United-States-Africa-military-presence-report-AFRICOM-briefing

The US is moving to a showdown crossing several red lines;

-Sea of Azov is off limits for US/NATO
-Ukraine and/or Georgia becoming NATO-member is unacceptable for Russia
-China wants to become global leading technology producer (an arrest for dealings with Iran is insane).

In Europe (and the US ?):http://theduran.com/revolt-in-the-streets-is-now-inevitable/

DJ-Russia and China could start further "economic actions" effecting the US$, stocks etc. Another step may involve military confrontation to make clear that there are red lines being crossed.

If anything thes US/NATO steps are pusshing Russia, China, Iran closer. Also many other countries may get pushed away from "the west".https://www.rt.com/op-ed/445566-us-pakistan-china-russia/ (But also Turkey, Indonesia, Argentina (doing a lot of deals with China), Malaysia etc.-many countries do not want to be limited-by the US-in trade. The US is even telling Europe not to buy energy from Russia or Iran, to limit techno-deals with China) The chances for a crisis inside NATO is growing. Also a "regional war", increase of "actions" against US pressence in Afghanistan, Iraq, Syria, Libya.

UPDATE-Hal Turner, NATO preparing false flag in Ukraine;
In another ominous development, "Donetsk People's Republic" spokesman Novohuilos has now announced that unmarked Ukrainian tanks arrived to Mariupol and will be likely used in false-flag operation against civilians.

Applying usual mirror: Russian proxies are going to attack.
That's a Minsk treaty violation; No heavy armor 40 km from novorussian border.

As these events took place, Ukraine also successfully launched its Neptune cruise missile which hit a sea target 280km away during drills near Odessa. Also, interestingly 8 missiles from the S-125 modernized anti-aircraft system were also fired and successfully hit+sank 8 Sea-based targets.

BREAKING as the story was in-production: Ukrainian army senior official confirms NATO members have internally agreed naval forces will be sent to the Azov Sea. Currently the necessary paperwork is in preparation.

This means that NATO naval vessels will now stand-in for Ukrainian Navy vessels in the contested sea area.

The trouble is that in order for NATO ships to get into the Sea of Azov, they would have to navigate beneath the Kerch Strait Bridge - which is solely and exclusively RUSSIAN TERRITORY.   Russia is already saying NATO ships "will not be allowed into the Sea of Asov."

Today Russia began telling its people war is coming:

DJ-The US http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/opinion-editorial/hal-turner-commentary/3560-talk-of-indicting-impeaching-and-jailing-our-president-in-other-words-a-coup in my opinion is ruled by politicians who are simply not working for the US. Those "politicians" are a danger for the world. It is for the US people to get a change.

https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-09/seven-days-failures-american-empire and https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-08/diplomacy-waste-time-washington, https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-08/trust-failing-both-sides-pond.

DJ-"The West" is breaking up in several "sections". http://theduran.com/macron-heralds-the-end-of-the-union/. Most EU-countries NEED Russian energy. Discussion is how to get that energy to its destination. Poland and Ukraine (Ukraine not EU, NATO) do want Germany to transport gas via their countries for financial and strategic reasons. Germany is better of with Nordstream 1 and 2 (and even discussion of Nordstream 3). Southern Europe is getting Russian energy via Turkstream.
An alternative is energy from Iran-wich the US also does not like. Azerbeijan, Iraq, Libya, etc are not able to export enough for EU demand. US energy-by ship instead of pipelines-is very expensive and not very realistic on the longer term. (The US is fracking itself to destruction-also the US is very energy consuming. The US governments failed to make clever usage of energy a priority for decades.)

http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3558-iraq-parliment-member-accuses-u-s-of-opening-safe-passage-for-isis-from-syria-into-iraq, http://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news/world-news/3557-syrian-army-launches-attack-against-isis-near-us-coalition-lines, https://southfront.org/prominent-free-syrian-army-commander-defects-and-joins-government-forces/. IS, SDF, FSA and other US-backed "rebels" are-slowly-losing position.

http://theduran.com/beijing-threatens-severe-retaliation-against-canada-if-huawei-cfo-is-not-released-2/ DJ-The arrest of the Huawei-cfo is an act of war. https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-09/china-summons-us-ambassador-over-huawei-threatens-further-action

With the US stepping out of the Iran-deal, INF-treaty, Paris agreement, trying to force changes in WTO-agreements etc. and sanctions for even long term friends the US is positioning itself into the margins.

In my (DJ) opinion this proces started after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991. Trump is the outcome of a proces. The idea that "the US has a duty to control the globe" is unrealistic and disrespectfull to all other nations.

The US is-to be realistic-not in a position any longer "to control the globe". A large-scale military confrontation will be the end of-not only the US-but of humankind. Smaller scale confrontations in Syria, Ukraine, South China Sea, North Korea result in further isolation of the US.

The only realistic option is that Trump starts doing what he promised during his election campain; realistic talks with Russia, China and Iran.
https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-12-09/how-avoid-new-war-europe There is no alternative for talks-any other way is (self)destruction.
