Turkey: Foreign Minister says Turkey will not sit idle while border is unstable and violated.

Unless they're used though it's pretty meaningless, and the media trying to spin something out of it imho.

U.S. Military Contractors To Dispose Of Syrian Chemical Weapons

American-funded military contractors are allegedly in Syria assisting with chemical weapons disposal.

Forget the Grand Prix or the Daytona 500, the real race right now is the race to Damascus. The racers include Syrian rebels in pickup trucks with mounted machine guns and homemade tanks, toting weapons and equipment supplied and paid for by Qatar and Turkey, and more covertly by the British and French intelligence services. Racing along with them are carloads of international diplomats urging their governments to give the Islamist militias more money and more weapons.

Everyone is on the road to Damascus in this amazing race. Christian refugees from Aleppo, Alawites packing in behind the tanks of the Syrian army and Iraqi militias that used to plant IEDs in front of American Humvees, who have found new work blowing up churches and taking over Syrian bases.

The Iranian Revolutionary Guard and Hezbollah’s militias out of Lebanon are shooting at Al Qaeda and Muslim Brotherhood militias from across the Middle East and even Europe. Imagine the Crips and the Bloods, armed to the teeth by every country from Mexico to China, fighting over the ruins of California cities, and you get some idea of the glorious Syrian civil war being fought by the Brave Syrian People in a conflict that will determine once and for all who will be ethnically cleansing who this year.

Morning DB & Éireann !

I wonder if Assad will make it through the end of this years in power...

Very well said TIS. Arab Spring is in fact an Islamic Winter. Nothing to do with democracy.

I would like to see Cameron and Hague intervening in Syria, just so long as they do it in person and on the ground.

Hey Insert !

What do you mean ? Democracy is flourishing in the Arab world right now with Egypt leading the way !
:morsiph:

Haha, crazy Pharaoh.

The unethical part in this for me is that we, the west is in alliance totalitarian monarchies like Saudi's and Qatar and want to promote this type of governance to other countries. Why not let people decide for themselves if they want to live under sharia or not, i'm sure that there are lot that don't fancy this idea. There is no reason to push more people to radical forms of Islam, doesn't make sense in the long run even for our own interests there. Central banks have definitely already decided to turn the ME in glass, can't explain these moves otherwise.

Morning DB & Éireann !

Yup, they must have already decided the fate of the Middle East otherwise I simply cannot find any explanation for what is going on there !

Sounds like USA/NATO etc are getting closer to using chemical weapons and blaming Assad

Morning to insert, DB, sub and anyone else I missed :) I'm running around this morning.

Wow, thnx for this Doorbert. Very interesting, especially if you add the reports before the summer that Blackwater is heavilly involved and operating inside Syria.

Just last night I was looking at the videos you posted, Insert and watching the prophecies of war in Turkey--chilling to think its all happening now.
