"Naturally the common people don't want war; neither in Russia, nor in England, nor in America, nor in Germany. That is understood. But after all, it is the leaders of the country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is to tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in any country." — Hermann Goering

Sometimes the country is being attacked and the pacifists' lack of patriotism is exposing the country to danger. I guess the trick is knowing the difference, if that's possible.

It is time consuming to discern a dupe from an operative, and a sincere pacifist from an enemy within the gate. Leaders like Hitler and Stalin didn't much bother with such a laborious or thoughtful procedure. Mass extermination is much more convenient.

Works for me, a win for the wrong or right reason is still a win.

American officials disclosed on Sunday Sep 15, that at least seven giant Russian Condor transport planes had taken off from a base in southern Russia during the past week to ferry equipment to Syria. Their destination was an airfield south of Latakia, Syria, which could become the most significant new Russian military foothold in the Middle East in decades. Moscow’s military build-up in Syria, where the Kremlin has been supporting President Bashar al-Assad in a four-and-a-half-year civil war, adds a new friction point in its relations with the United States.

The Obama administration initially hoped it had hampered the Russian effort to move military equipment and personnel into Syria when Bulgaria, a NATO member, announced it would close its airspace to the flights.

OOPS, LEFT OUT A CRITICAL ELEMENT TO THE STORY:

The seven giant Russian Condor transport planes had taken off from a base in southern Russia all passing through Iranian and Iraqi airspace.

American diplomats raised the issue with the Iraqi government on Sept. 5, hoping that the Iraqis would follow Bulgaria’s example and declare their airspace off limits to the Russian transport planes. The Iraqis responded that they would look into the matter, but more than a week later, the Iraqis had yet to take action. A spokesman for the Iraqi prime minister declined to comment on Sunday, asserting that he had no information about the Russian flights or the United States’ concerns about them.

SO DESPITE ALL THE SACRIFICES THE COALITION, AND PARTICULARLY AMERICA, HAS MADE FOR IRAQ AND IRAN, ALL WE GET IS A SLAP IN THE FACE.

SOLUTION:- WITHDRAW ALL TROOPS, ALL SUPPORT, ALL EQUIPMENT, POSITION IT ALL IN ISRAEL TO MAKE UP THE SHIT WE ARE CAUSING THEM. LET THE REST SORT IT OUT AMONGST THEMSELVES. ONCE THEY’VE EXPENDED ALL THEIR AMMUNITION KILLING EACH OTHER IT WILL BE EASIER TO MOVE IN AND CLEAN UP WHAT'S LEFT.
