Police: At least 35 dead in Paris attacks; hostages taken

this whole story is just amazing.

Can you imagine -- the events in france come just as refugees are flooding in and now facing winter...

this whole deal is as dramatic as a hollywood movie...

From bush's "mission accomplished" sign... all the way through Putin setting up anti-aircraft guns (to shoot down the isis air force presumably :mrgreen... Then the russian jet gets taken down. Then a big beirut bombing. Now this.

So many plot twists & turns.

 

So many different incidents over so many years.
Russia installs antio aircraft guns near its airfields in Syria. Normal military precautions.

 

NOT ONE of the terrorists in Paris were Syrians. They were all French nationals.

So for those fear mongering that we might be letting in ISIL terrorists pretending to be Syrian refugees, it's unlikely a terrorist is going to submit themselves to an 18 month vetting process to enter the U.S. when he could do the same thing in a matter of hours with a phony passport.

This is the same crap we had to deal with in the early 1980s when Americans thought all Iranian immigrants were terrorists.


Growing up in Virginia a lot of those Iranian kids hung out with Black students at school because most White students treated them worse than n-ggas.:smt085

 

These immigrants may also be treated badly because they are from the region of conflict and because they are muslim.

 

You and Beast can join my group, you will have a good time once you do, I tried to tell you about this issue but no reply from you positive or negative. what so interesting about bunch of right wing idiots and white homos who are into cuckold ? You will not stick around when your friends leave. :smt081

 

Well thanks for your expert military insight. lol

Normal military precautions against what might I ask? Right -- precautions against anti-assad nations with air power (e.g. the u.s.). (Actually more of a warning than anything else. I don't think russia seriously believes they'll be attacked in syria by anyone's air strikes.)

Still, fact is russia and the u.s. have been at loggerheads over syria since this whole thing jumped off ... Since obama declared "assad must go."

It's no secret. Syria is an important geo-strategic ally for russia. ...So Russia has been pretty assertive about strategically positioning its warships, installing anti-aircraft guns, and now bombing syrian opposition (indiscriminately, according to western media).

My point is not to condemn russia, but to point out that this whole thing is a really dramatic story chock full of plot twists... a real story of unintended consequences... starting with "mission accomplished" and ending with superpowers facing off, as a refugee crisis threatens to further unravel the EU, while IS launches terror attacks around the globe...

Reality is far more dramatic than anything hollywood can put out...

 

We should be working together - Europe Russia and USA.
But each has its own strategic and business interests.
And with friends like Saudi Arabia and Turkey and Quatar, who needs enemies?
