Grads Join Scuds And Incendiary Bombs In The Latest Escalation Of The Syrian Conflict

In the past month those of us tracking the use of arms in the Syrian conflict have noted a fresh escalation in the conflict.

We've seen RBK cluster bombs deployed with ZAB incendiary munitions along with ZAB-100-105 incendiary bombs, as well as reports of Scud missiles being used.

One other part of this apparent new escalation is the increasingly widespread use of BM-21 Grad rocket launchers, shown in a clip leaked from Assad's forces firing from Bosra al-Hareer, Daara

BM-21 Grad's can be loaded with 40 rockets, which can be fired of ranges between 20-40km depending on the rocket, and while they've made the occasional rare appearance in the conflict it seems they are being used on an increasing basis, with a couple of examples of missile remnants from the Idlib and Aleppo regions pictured in the following:

I find it interesting that the young lady shot at the mall in Portland is of Ukrainian decent....

2nd brush with death suspicious in mall shooting
the girl survivor...

last name Shevchenko

survived a car crash in August....

Now she is shot in the back...

by a shooter that came OUT OF MACY'S

could she be related to

the Shevchenko in the ukraine who is politician?

I believe we would have known if she was his sister. He is a world famous footballer with numerous fans and got in the politics just a few months back.

Much thanks for pin!

Freaking puppets, at least ministry stated that we are against a military intervention and in favor of dialogue and political solution.

Good morning!!

interesting that you say 'sister', I stated RELATED

you post alot...I would think you are good at research and seeing patterns...

why don't you put that to use and tell what we don't know?

Even if they are not related, the odds that the Ukraine would have it's 'face' in the news in such a way twice that we know of would indicate that maybe there is a campaign to bring it down in certain kinds of timed attacks...

what is happening in the Ukraine right now...what to do with freedoms, civil unrest, uprisings of the people????

anyone have input?

by the way, great avatar....any significance to it?

Morning Lady Jane

Jabhat al-Nusra just made Zarqawi's brother-in-law one of their leaders.

So Russia gave Syria to NATO, looks like they are NWO after all...The bravado that was on display by them was nothing more than a facade.

All of these rebellions in countries halfway across the world are caused by various Illuminati agents.

Sorry my friend, my bad, misread and thought you wrote sister.
I just pointed out that if she was related to the famous Sevchenko we would have known, lots of people are crazy about him, worldwide star for many years and very rich obviously. But you're raising an interesting conspiracy for sure, i'll have a look in it. :)

I know Ukraine is better than other former Soviet states in many dept's but human rights violations still exist. I believe that soon Ukraine will have to decide where she will stand when shtf, Russia or west.

Glad you like the avatar, no significance in it, just trying to see the positive and funny side of things in this full of doom world. :)

US Invites Head of Syrian Opposition to Washington

[link to reason.com]

well put, well recieved... : )

saw several things about ukraine

orange revolution
spring uprising poss. equated with arab spring
journalists being killed and threatened in large numbers
elections coming up

why did I look?

because I see the news about the journalist on front page, then in the back ground a see a young lady in america of the same ethnicity gunned down...

maybe a coincidence,

but when I see that she was almost killed in a 'car wreck' only a few months before, I just have to ask....

what's going on here?

All of this is nothing but a soap opera.

A complete puppet show, where the illuminati is playing with people's lives.

Disgusting.

Just read more about the 15 year old girl, interesting story indeed, poor girl :(
Not related with the famous one for sure coz family set an account for help with the medical expenses, while the famous one is very very rich and was earning 150-250k per week for most of his football career. But i do agree with you that lots of things are happening behind the scenes regarding Ukraine the last decade, revolutions, assassinations plots, a big influence game is taking place, which i find it a bit normal tbh, Ukraine is too close to Russia to be fully "westernized", surely a place to have an eye out for when shtf, won't be long now.

"Recognition of the Syrian opposition as ‘legitimate’ authorities by the ‘Friends of Syria’ gives up on any attempts to find a political solution. The only option now is war," Pushkov wrote on his Twitter account on Thursday.

"Syrian militants have threatened to attack the embassies of Russia and Ukraine in Damascus to ‘take care of’ the Russians. The US sends special operations forces in such cases," he warned.

You know what follows now.

Obama will help them put someone in power who hates the United States, as he has done elsewhere.

Senior Syrian government officials said today that the recognition of the opposition coalition as the legitimate government by the US and many other countries would not change the situation on the ground.
