Obama has ruled out working with Syrian President Bashar al-Assad against Islamic State, which is fighting to topple him. The U.S. regards President Assad as an illegitimate leader and a criminal.

So Obama will be soon phoning Putin to say he has no problem if Russia bombs Ukraine. Marvellous.

With the acquiescence of the American/UK/NATO voters.

Ah but you know there are "good" illegitimate governments and "bad" illegitimate governments.

Wondering who wrote the script....
Carefully done.

Yes, I thought it was very precisely written but also spoken by a true English speaker.

The die is cast. the collapsing Christian/Muslim coalition now have official western backing. No UNSC vote but hey who wants to be legal.

The US government passes a funding bill to pay for the "good" terrorist to enable them to kill the "bad" terrorist, which they funded last year.

Oh, the collapsing Christian/Muslim coalition will also take on the democratically elected Syrian government and possibly Turkey and Russia as well. Seems just like Vietnam and how did that end?

"Moments ago, the Senate passed a $1 trillion government-funding bill that according to the Hill also gave the president new authority to battle the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria. The legislation, which has now been approved by both chambers of Congress, now heads to the White House for Obama?s signature. While the stopgap bill will prevent a government shutdown on Oct. 1, the vote will be remembered for a controversial provision that allows Obama to start a new training program for rebel fighters in Syria. In other words, not only will Obama arm some folks, he will also drone some other folks, the same folks he was arming a year ago."

Meanwhile the "terrorists" in Australia have been rounded up due to "allegations" of another possible terrorist plot. And it's wondered why many law abiding citizens despise their elected politicians.

If it keeps them cowering behind the curtains and reinforces their prejudices it has to be good for them.

Terrorism raids: plot to kill Aussies on video by top terrorist Mohammad Baryalei

"They swooped amid fears for the public's safety after Baryalei allegedly spoke by phone with Omarjan Azari on Tuesday to discuss a plan to kidnap and murder – presumably by beheading – a random person on camera, the footage of which would then be posted online by the Islamic State's sophisticated and powerful propaganda wing.It is understood that without any specified time or place for any attack, police were concerned they might not be able to stop the plot. They therefore chose to move quickly and make the arrests.
NSW Premier Mike Baird delivered a fierce warning to anyone "intent on bringing overseas conflicts to Australia"

ISIS allegedly makes a huge amount of money from the stolen Iraqi and Syrian oil.

Who is buying this oil, should there be sanctions against these countries, should they be invaded to ensure compliance with the wishes of the Iraq and Syria?

One ISIS video not yet blanked.

Do you have a problem expressing your self clearly?

Do you have a problem reading English. Do you understand the difference between facts and hearsay?

"Hearsay evidence is "an out-of-court statement introduced to prove the truth of the matter asserted therein." In court hearsay evidence is inadmissible (the "Hearsay Evidence Rule") unless an exception to the Hearsay Rule applies."

But your agreement to illegal wars already puts you on the side of the bully boys in this world. Your acceptance of a MSM propaganda piece to back up your racist views again peeps out from under your mask.

"presumably by beheading" - presumably? Seems they have no evidence of that.


^^ Good one.
I'm not kidding here.

It's a bit hard to have evidence of 'future crime' (we're not quite there yet)
But I'm sure they were duely diligent and took the necessary steps.
The Aussie cops, certainly at federal level are pretty good.
(There will alway be the bogon (chav) 'fuck the cops' crowd but what're you going to do?)

^ As I alluded to in my post, perhaps the police have a recording of the phone call. Would that be evidence of conspiracy to commit a crime? (Is conspiracy to commit a crime a criminal offence in Australia?)

Seems even the mods find your outburst unwelcome. The second quote disappeared along with your post.

Put up an electrified Roo fence, a few anti aircraft missiles and get the local Aborigines to supply some local tucker to feed them. If they choose downtown Sydney however it will cause chaos - see the last NATO event in Wales. Fuck it they could even bring in some Saudi contractors to build Obama a golf course.

45,000 Kurds displaced from northern Syria cross into Turkey.

Tens of thousands of Syrian Kurds have crossed into Turkey over the past day, fleeing an advance by fighters from the Islamic State of Iraq and Levant (ISIL), who have seized dozens of villages close to the border, Turkish officials say.

Turkey opened a stretch of the frontier on Friday after Kurdish civilians fled their homes, fearing an imminent attack on the border town of Ayn al-Arab, known as Kobani in Kurdish.

"Around 45,000 Syrian Kurds have crossed the border as of now from eight entrance points along a 30km distance from Akcakale to Mursitpinar since we opened the border yesterday," Numan Kurtulmus, Turkish deputy prime minister, said.

The refugees, who fled fighting between ISIL and Kurdish fighters, had been amassing along the border since Thursday

Meanwhile... Turkish hostages go free.

Forty-six Turkish hostages seized by fighters of the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul in June have been brought safely back to Turkey by the country's intelligence agency, according to Ahmet Davutoglu, Turkey's prime minister.

The Turkish hostages, including diplomats, soldiers and children, were seized from Turkey's consulate in June, along with three Iraqis, who were also released.
