Syria's border?? HaHa! The PBS slime would never ask such a followup! Yet another asshole with zero-jurisdiction calling for Assad to go and for the US to declare a no-fly zone in a sovereign nation.

Makes me think back to my younger days when I listened to PBS and thought how nice it was to listen to people with no political agendas telling the truth. I could just relax and listen... all was right with the world. Then they brought David Brooks into the Newshour with Jim Lehrer and Jim never challenged his daily lies. I was devastated. Couldn't run away fast enough. PBS - What a bunch or horse shit. Now it is RT or nothing. And of course they are actually run out of the kremlin but it is STILL way better. SO SAD! |

The rebels reportedly killed one Russian pilot who ejected from the jet hit by a Turkish missile. Quoting: SN7 During the regular press briefing, Mark Toner said the Syrian government did not have such a right, though. When asked by RT's Gayane Chichakyan if the State Department considered the rebels who reportedly killed the Russian pilots "moderates," Toner replied: "We’ve seen conflicting reports. One pilot may not have been killed. If these ‘Turkomen’ were actually being attacked by Russian strikes, they have every right to defend themselves.” AP's diplomatic correspondent Matt Lee asked a follow up question. "Doesn’t that apply to everyone, not just rebels backed by West? Including the Assad regime?" What the Assad regime was doing "is not self-defense," Toner countered, arguing that the government in Damascus responded to "peaceful protests with four years of terror."

Aleksandr Dugin is seen as an author of Putin's initiative for the annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation "In principle, Eurasia and our space, the heartland Russia, remain the staging area of a new anti-bourgeois, anti-American revolution. ... The new Eurasian empire will be constructed on the fundamental principle of the common enemy: the rejection of Atlanticism, strategic control of the USA, and the refusal to allow liberal values to dominate us. This common civilizational impulse will be the basis of a political and strategic union." Aleksandr Dugin |

IT's so self serving in the most dishonest way possible. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 66794842 Narcissistic endeavor, or a deliberate means to actually make America out to be this out of touch rogue entity with disregard to taking the honorable high road when it comes to possessing what ever it wants, and the bully has recruited a gang, between the countries backing this insanity, and the gangsters shooting at pilots parachuting and rescue helicopters. Having our blinders on to Russia's interests, while their soldeirs are getting slaughtered thanks to the billions of dollars in weapons and currency is one thing, but then backing up their barbaric behavior that thwarts the Geneva convention, as if international laws only apply to our enemies. Well this does nothing more than reflevt a level of brazen unaccountability that should by no means be reflective of the leader of the free world, that is unless you intentionally want the rest of the world to revolt in regards to addressing our status as such, while simultaneously acknowledging us as the pivitol point of axis of Evil. An evil mind you Super Powers such as Russia and China are more than likely more eager to contain than be allied with, especially considering how even drudge is on the bandwagon as far as recognizing Americas support for Isis, you think the low gas prices are a coincidence or the result of the oil money being doled out to terrorists as opposed to the source nations infustructure. We have all got blood oil on our hands, dismembered corpses riddle the landscape of Libya, Iraq, Yemen, and Syria as a result of a foreign policy hell bent on cheap oil no matter what the cost, even if it is at the sake of having whatever dignity we once had and flushing it all down the drain. I am so ashamed every time I put gas in my car, feel like a vegan eating poorly treated animals who are them slaughtered in the most horific way imaginable. God help us... |
