Again, on the one year from the so called "liberation" of Syria, this is The Cradle... straight up facts, no emotional commentary.
The first 32 minutes are on Syria.
It's ugly, but that's reality

If you're suspicious of the corporate media coverage of 1 year from the so called "liberation" of Syria, you're right to be.
Here's an honest discussion on Syria's reality from two Syrians, a Christian Armenian and an Alawite.
Under al Assad, Syria was a secular state, sovereign and diverse. It's now under a takfiri sectarian regime. US/Israel/Turkey/Qatar achieved their goal through 13 years of dirty war.
This is not a "liberation".

@bikejourno Refer to them by their Arabic name instead, and watch how quickly the war crimes rain down on them.
“La Policía desarticula la primera célula terrorista neonazi de ‘The Base’ en España con tres detenciones en Castellón”
El artículo no menciona (ni investiga) cómo es que una organización neonazi se llama “The Base”, sabiendo que Al Qaeda significa exactamente lo mismo, “la base” o “la plataforma”.
De hecho, si nos fijamos en que Al Qaeda fue creado por EEUU, y que EEUU ha estado enmierdando Europa con su Gladio (para combatir el comunismo, originalmente, y yo diría que cualquier cosa que se oponga seriamente a su imperialismo), no me sorprendería encontrar lazos con la CIA aquí. Quizás suene conspiranoico, pero no creo que todo este auge de la ultraderecha lo sea sin algún tipo de coordinación estudiada. A la vez, nunca sé dónde está la frontera entre conspiraciones reales (que sí han existido) y las ganas de explicarlo todo como si alguien (organización más o menos formal) moviese los hilos. Y si, como parece, lo que se quiere es meternos en una guerra con Rusia (yo diría que para camuflar y ser coartada del colapso energético y económico que se nos cae encima), tener a gente de ultraderecha al servicio puede resultar muy útil. En fin…

Mali’s Potential Fall To Terrorists Could Result In Another French-Led Intervention
Mali’s Potential Fall To Terrorists Could Result In Another French-Led Intervention
The dual pretexts of crushing the world’s latest so-called caliphate and averting another 2015-like migrant crisis could suffice for rallying the public around a French-led mission for restoring Western influence in the region.
The Wall Street Journal recently warned that “Al Qaeda Is on the Brink of Taking Over a Country”, writing that the group’s local ally Jamaat Nusrat al-Islam wal-Muslimin (JNIM) has encircled the capital, cutting it off from food and fuel. The latter’s unexpected dearth has hindered the Malian Armed Forces’ (FAM) ability to respond. According to their assessment, JNIM hopes to replicate their like-minded allies’ seizure of power in Afghanistan and Syria, namely through their own war of attrition against the state.
The FAM is nowhere near as weak as the Afghan National Army always was nor as the Syrian Arab Army ultimately revealed itself to be. Russia has been providing arms, training, intelligence, and logistical support to them for several years already and thus turned them into a force to be reckoned with. The problem is that France, Ukraine, and arguably neighbouring Algeria to an extent have been backing terrorist-designated Tuareg separatists who once again entered into an unholy alliance with Islamists.
This created space for JNIM to expand elsewhere throughout the country and in neighbouring Burkina Faso as well, which comprise the Sahelian Alliance/Confederation with Niger, who’s also confronting its own Islamist insurgency but led by a local ISIS ally instead of rival Al Qaeda’s JNIM. This regional integration bloc considers France to be a state sponsor of terrorism, having long accused it of backing a motley crew of such groups in their countries, with suspicion swirling that they even support Islamists.
The combined effect of these (French-backed?) terrorist offensives has been to destabilize the core of West Africa’s multipolarity processes, the Sahelian Alliance/Confederation, and create the credible possibility (which is still far from assured) that one, two, or all three of its members fall to terrorists. While they’re all Russian military partners, with Mali being the top one, Russia is still waging its special operation and therefore cannot realistically carry out a 2015 Syrian-like intervention to save them.
Nevertheless, adversarial media are expected to blame their potential falls on Russia in order to frame it as an unreliable ally, even going as far as to experience schadenfreude if terrorists take over this chunk of West Africa. About that scenario, it would be a major geopolitical event not only due to its symbolism, but also because these states control some of the smuggling routes from the populated West African coast to Europe, possibly leading to an explosion in illegal immigration and terrorist infiltration.
Moreover, the precedent of France militarily intervening in Mali to halt the advance of Al Qaeeda-backed Tuareg separatists in early 2013 at Bamako’s request suggests that Paris might unilaterally attempt something similar, but perhaps with more direct Western European and/or US backing. The dual pretexts of crushing the world’s latest so-called caliphate and averting another 2015-like migrant crisis could suffice for rallying the public around this French-led mission for restoring Western influence in the region.
Securing access to African resources, markets, and labour is of grand strategic significance for the West as is rolling back its Chinese systemic rival’s access to the aforesaid. The average Westerner doesn’t understand the importance of this goal, however, hence the need to let the region fall in part or in whole to terrorists (and possibly help this happen). If it does, then the West can stage its latest powerplay in the Global South, but the unintended costs might ultimately outweigh the expected benefits.

I think people need to remember with the #IraqWar - people like #GrahamPlatner even in terms of pure combat weren't fighting just #AlQaeda. Literally just fighting random #Iraqis who wanted the #US out of the country. #Platner says he enjoyed combat - he enjoyed killing normal people resisting occupation.
How's he any better than an #IDF #Nazi?

Western countries urge citizens to leave Mali as fuel crisis deepens http://newsfeed.facilit8.network/TP074V #MaliCrisis #FuelCrisis #AlQaeda #WesternCountries #CitizensSafety
The U.S. Embassy in Mali told American citizens Tuesday to leave the country by plane because of the threats of terrorism and a severe fuel crisis stemming from a jihadi group's blockade of fuel tankers entering the landlocked West African nation. Mali closed schools and universities nationwide starting Sunday due to a fuel scarcity.
