War

Turkey has confirmed military strikes against Syrian government and Kurdish forces in Syria and says more is about to come. The Turkish prime minister Ahmet Davutoğlu said that Turkish forces have attacked Kurdish YPG militias in northern Syria, and have demanded that the Kurds withdraw from the airbase that they had recently seized from “moderate” rebels. Turkey has also confirmed attacks against the Syrian Arab Army (SAA) in North West Syria. A Turkish official is now warning of a “massive escalation” in Syria over the next 24 hours.

The Syrian news agency SANA has confirmed that the Turkish army have entered Syria with 12 armored pickup trucks with machine guns and more than a hundred military mercenaries. The Syrian Foreign Minister hasn’t given any more information about the invasion.

GOP front-runner Donald Trump has accused Jeb Bush’s brother and former President George W. Bush, for the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001. During a CBS Republican presidential debate in South Carolina on Saturday, the Donald accused the former president of not keeping America secure. Politico reports: “The World Trade Center came down during your brother’s reign. Remember that,” Trump said to the former Florida governor. Trump went back to the line of attack moments later, after Marco Rubio also defended George W.

The Neoconservatives Are Brewing A Wider War In Syria

Paul Craig Roberts

While you are enjoying your Sunday, the insane neoconservatives who control Western foreign policy and their Turkish and Saudi Arabian vassals might be preparing the end of the world.

Any person who relies on Western media has no accurate idea of what is happening in Syria.
I will provide a brief summary and then send you to two detailed accounts.

The Turkish military has been shelling Syrian government forces in Aleppo and Latakia , while also hitting Kurdish fighters near the city of Azaz in northwestern Syria. This is a serious escalation that will likely prompt a Russian response. The air base that had recently been retaken from Islamist rebels was struck a massive attack. According to RT: Anatolia news agency reported that the Turkish military hit Syrian government forces on Saturday, adding that the shelling had been in response to fire inflicted on a Turkish military guard post in Turkey’s southern Hatay region.
