4//Kavkaz Centre, Chechen Republic of Ichkeria--US PREPARES KURDS AND AZERBAIJANIS AGAINST IRAN (Against the background of diplomatic efforts initiated by Washington to blockade the nuclear program of Tehran , the Pentagon and CIA proceed with preparations for possible war against Iran . A few days before it became known that the leaders of Azerbaijani groupings – the adversaries of Tehran were hastily summoned to Washington, reported Turkish CNN. According to the information of the same TV channel, referring to the Azeri APA agency, the United States are training 20 thousand Kurds in Iraq, in the camps arranged in the territories under the control of Jalal Talabani. The training is aimed at involving the units of Kurd soldiers in the struggle against the Irani regime. According to the CNN-Turk, the trainings are carried out with the participation of the Kurd fighters of the Patriotic Union of Kurdistan, which is considered a terrorist organization in Turkey. . … . 500 Kurd fighters have already finished military training and crossed the border of Iran. They allegedly have delivered control blows on three objective points on the border of Iran.)



5//RIA Novosti, Russia-- Opinion & Analysis: U.S. IN CASPIAN REGION AND RUSSIA’S POSITION (. … . Significantly, the U.S. program also includes setting up special task forces, whose mission will be similar to those Russia has proposed for its regional plans: "a rapid reaction not only to terrorist attacks at oil pipelines, but also to any emergency situations in the Caspian countries." A command center equipped with most up-to-date radars will be established in Baku and the entire Caspian zone will become its responsibility. Some analysts say the Azerbaijani authorities have already agreed in principle to the proposal. The implementation of the Caspian Guard program will pose a threat primarily to the defense interests of Russia and Iran, as it includes observation systems for the air and sea, and will place a vast territory under U.S. control. As they try to consolidate the naval forces of the Caspian states in their common interests, Moscow and Tehran are in favor of preventing the Caspian's militarization. However, Kazakhstan, Azerbaijan and Turkmenistan are not concealing their desire to modernize their naval forces, in which the U.S., in contrast to Iran and Russia, is helping them.)

Haven't had one of those in a while. Reminds me of when we brought so much joy to Central America a couple decades ago...

2. This is gonna' be a really shitty summer!!!
I guess the neoCONs have decided to opt out of the war march propaganda and just make this their final world war happen. They're not gonna need public support or permission 'cause they got themselves fraudulently elected.

3. Training thousands of fighters in camps?
Training camps in Middle Eastern countries? To attack another country?

Why did we invade Afghanistan again?

4. Kids, THERE WILL BE NO WAR WITH IRAN
There is NO WAY IN HELL this HORRIBLE pResident can go to war with anyone else. There's no money, no people, and he has A GAZILLION scandals that are on the way. (I've lost count personally).

The Congress won't let him and IF HE TRIES, THE REPUGNANTS WILL START THE IMPEACHMENT TRIALS.

We CAN'T go to war, we have no one and nothing to fight with.

Everyone relax please.

Waiting for the IMPEACHMENT WHILE THE SCANDALS KEEP UNFOLDING
