Interfax.ru — Russian Deputy PM Calls NATO Commander "A Specialist in Bombing Afghan Weddings"


Getting personal. The US military and deep state are already seething over Russian success in Syria. Now it appears that the Russians have decided to respond in kind to the US personal attacks on Putin, ratcheting the rancor up a notch.  Until now, the Russian have been pretty reserved in the face of insults and lies. Looks like the gloves are coming off.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Dmitry Rogozin responded to the accusations against Russia from NATO commander in Europe, General Philip Breedlove, who talked about the inaccuracy of Russian airstrikes in Syria.

"From a sick head to a healthy one [Russian idiom - FR] - a specialist in bombing Afghan weddings talks aboutthe accuracy of our bombing," - he wrote, with a link to Breedlove's statement. 
NATO commander in Europe had earlier said in the Senate that Russia is using weapons in Syria, "which are not of high accuracy", which creates panic among the local population and leads to increased flow of migrants.'….
Breedlove omits the detail that the refugees were already in Turkey in refugee camps before Russia entered Syria, and the refugee crisis began with refugees from Libya.  It was exacerbated when Erdogan turned the refugees from the Turkish camps toward Europe.

Slouching (or rushing) toward Armageddon? The end-timers must be getting excited.

"with Saudi and Turkish help" = "with no help..."

Great interview on John Batchelor Show last night with Stephen Cohen. Kind of remarkable that Cohen gets an hour every Tuesday on WABC-Radio AM in Manhattan. I’m sure the elites aren’t listening but all those cabbies and late night workers are.

And yes, guess what, Cohen’s praise of Trump a few weeks ago for his foreign policy smarts WAS WIPED FROM Batchelor’s podcast and replaced with an innocuous tidbit.

Cohen’s discussion with Batchelor is about the war parties, Syria, and the complete propaganda that we get in the US press.

No wonder the neocons/war parties are getting dysentery over Trump.
