"The cities that we call Aleppo, Idlib, Damascus and Raqqa will become our provinces, like Antep, Hatay and Urfa !"
Here's what's so interesting--Israel's military is on the outskirts of Damascus, which Erdogan appears to be claiming for Turkey. Is that to keep the city safe until the Turkish army arrives? Or are we looking at impending confrontation between Israel and Turkey? Does HTS even figure in this at all? Sure doesn't sound like it from Erdogan's words.
The IDF must make special preparations to remain on the strategic Mount Hermon, Defense Minister Israel Katz has directed
Israeli Defense Minister Israel Katz has ordered the country’s troops to prepare to stay in newly seized Syrian territory over the winter, despite growing international calls to retreat.
Hajji Wilhelm Muhammad was supposed to save them by helping them move into the modern world with war ships and military training replete with Western style uniforms. I think Erdogan has a fantasy view of the "Sick Man of Europe." The Ottomans were on their death bed.
Here is the most probable escalation ladder that could take us into WW3 and nuclear Armageddon. Israel launches another attack on Iran and they respond with a similar counterattack on Israel. Biden's handlers use that response as a casus belli for initiating US bombing of Iran, which then triggers a counterattack against US bases in the Gulf. The Strait of Hormuz is closed and worldwide oil prices double or triple. Russia and China switch to a war footing and tensions increase everywhere compounded by economic collapse in Europe during winter. Biden declares martial law and postpones the election certification, which then triggers actual citizen militia revolts across the US. Chaos reigns everywhere and all nuclear powers are now on a hair trigger.
Those are the wages of the stolen election in 2020. That event was not as trivial as the MSM would have us believe.
I wonder what is going on with Israeli politics right now? Netanyahu's corruption trial started and he testified. How is his coalition doing? Seems lots of drama about their AG.
I am sure this is driving all the propaganda and some decisions coming out of Israel right now is Israeli politics. Such as, attacking Iran's nuclear because all of a sudden, we can. Last time some missiles were fired from Iraq and the 2nd wave turned back because they got pinged / lit up by Iranian/Russian Airdefences. Or the Israeli seizing of more Syrian territory.
Is Syria going to be another "Mission Accomplished" moment?
I wonder how close Iran is to a nuclear weapon? My guess months. And I don't think there is anything Israel or the US can do to stop it, except nuclear strikes.
I don't see Israel doing a Samson Option, but keeps up the verbal pressure.
After Israel's strike on Iran on October 26 in retaliation for Iran's strike on Israel on October 1, Israel said they accomplished many things, Iran said Israel did not accomplish much, and Iran enthusiasts suggested Iran benefited from sophisticated air defenses in coordination with Russia.
What did each side learn from that October tit for tat? Now Israel enthusiasts tell us Israel can go ahead and strike nuclear sites in Iran. What say the Iran enthusiasts?
I don't think Trump is gaslighting. I think Trump is fine with the plan for a Greater Israel, based on the composition of his transition team, which feeds him his facts and suggests the plans he should make using those facts. Trump probably sees it as just a very big real estate deal. The deal would benefit his family and his best friends, and insure against a successful assassination attempt. We go to war with the Trump we have, not the Trump we wish we had.
The Arab world including the Palestinians do have a vote, and I don't see the US having the influence necessary in the Middle East to do anything, positive or negative, about a greater Israel. The Arab countries around Israel have not accepted anymore Palestinian Refugees, so the ethnic cleansing of Gaza has failed. Ethnic Cleansing the West Bank I don't see happening. Israel does not have the resources. There is a lot the Arab World can do passive aggressively. And Herzbolla stopped dead the Israeli advance into Lebanon. And the economic pain in Israel continues.
I do worry about Jordan. And Syria will be getting a lot of attention from Israel.
"Caveat: What would stop Trump from reversing these measures—and other sanctions as well? As far as I can tell, only be fear of a renewed Russia Hoax would prevent that. That could be overcome, IMO, by economic and financial pain inflicted on home populations. If anyone can provide the PR muscle to reverse this madness, the Trump - Musk team can do it. Or can they?"
Trump should do so much the deep state doesn't want done, on Day 1, that the chaos and crying that results will keep the deep state on the defense. So pardons, troop withdrawals, firing every political appointee, EOs that reverse every Biden, Obama, and Clinton EO - you name it. No mercy for the deep state. And as they complain, mock them and issue some more EOs.
I'm struggling with how Trump can accomplish anything other than some attempts at reducing federal agencies, firing some low level traitors and some appeasement of the base by pardoning the J6'ers. Call me cynical and I know I am but the depth of corruption and the stranglehold of our government by outsider interests, rampant disinformation and the ensuing societal death rattle means a long spell of chaos and massive deaths around the world. The oligarch's are safe from all this behind reinforced compounds and vast armies of security personnel protecting them from the chaos.
The oligarchs rely on a functioning society to eat and provide them with security. The oligarchs eventually go down with everyone else. And in the case of the French Revolution their blood greased the guillotine.
There’s a lot Trump will require the help of the Congress to do. The debt is spiraling out of control and will necessitate big cuts to programs that are the favorites of the profligate DC elite. Medicare is unsustainable. The warfare state is unsustainable. The administrative state will need to be seriously cut. I look for them to take the easy way out, which is to print money and cause inflation. But doctors and bombs can’t be printed.
Oligarchs: Transhumanism, Robots, and slaves will do for them in the society they envision for themselves. Ridding the world of billions of useless eaters is their long range goal.
I cannot imagine help from a controlled congress whose interests Trump seems to impinge upon. A spiraling debt is an advantage for the oligarch's and congress but fatal to everyone else. So are wars. We pin our hopes on a Trump revival, but there are factors at work that wish to see that he is unsuccessful.
I share your hope, but that is not a strategy and until we see what will do and can do, we are at the mercy of an antihuman agenda of cultural Marxism of which chaos is their manifest destiny.
I do not have any hope that Trump can solve what ails us, only that he may try to do some things that make sense, unlike Harris who would have continued to do those things that harm us further. In the end, there is no courage that is required from either party or from the American people to take the bitter medicine of significant cuts to the federal budget and the dismantlement of the empire.
This is how we “Build Back Better.” First we burn it all down, then we build our dystopian authoritarian hellscape. Bringing in the new year with a bang.
Yes, indeed. Along the lines of Classical School movement, my nephew is head of Hillsdale's Classical academy in TX. He is Greek Orthodox like me I will pose that question to him as I know what you mean. Also regarding the Judeo-Christian values nonsense......food for thought:
Israel is a small state. They have bitten off more than they can chew. They rely on the support of the US. It’ll be tough for them to manage their Syrian conquest given the gang that’s running Syria now. And how do they take out Iran, even with US assistance? Iran is the size of the western US. It has 90M people. Much of its terrain is rugged. How many bombs and missiles are required and do we expect the Iranians to sit idly by?
How would Grassely explain the ownership of our government by Israel? That is the center of operations at the moment. Washington is just the facilitator and bank of operations for their objectives. A letter by his colleagues would just be redundant since a large swath of people now realize the depth of corruption and fealty being played to the parties who wish to own the world for their own pleasure. We are just in the way.
The Zangezur corridor is becoming an interesting flash point with the oddity that Russia is supporting Turkey and Azerbaijan over Iran.
Very odd times.
Erdogan publicly brags about occupying Syria:
"The cities that we call Aleppo, Idlib, Damascus and Raqqa will become our provinces, like Antep, Hatay and Urfa !"

and wait till Turkey moves their S400 air defense systems over Syria...
So True
It is a True Land Rush akin to US Oklahoma of 1889
Whomever Takes it First Is Likely not to Give it Up
As I posted a couple days ago Syria is Ripe for the Taking
How does America fit into that picture? Greater Israel?
This will all cost the US.
Very sad for the Syrians
They all thought we got rid of Asaad we are good people
the world will love us
Now what. What a shame for the Syrians

The Syria " Split " as explained by John Mersheimer
US Israel Turkey ' Moderate Rebels formerly known as Terrorists '
and Syria maybe keeps a piece so 5 parts maybe more
https://youtu.be/dhf8DRmNw0g?t=1542
This Is apparently exactly what the US and EU are concerned about with Ukraine
Shortly it may well be that the US and EU must go in to Ukraine
to claim their '" share "' US and EU corporations have invested
as well loans have been made
Russia of course will take a piece of the pie - while Poland is very likely
to stick a few fingers in too
Will the " Ukraine Split " mirror the " Syria Split "
time will tell
Imagine that Anglo-Zionists are enabling crazies like this--which they are:
Erdogan: "We'd have more territory if we hadn't lost that giant war [i.e. WW1] and had our empire dismantled."
Future Muslim Brotherhood encampment.
Hajji Wilhelm Muhammad was supposed to save them by helping them move into the modern world with war ships and military training replete with Western style uniforms. I think Erdogan has a fantasy view of the "Sick Man of Europe." The Ottomans were on their death bed.

I plan to be unburdened by all this when said and done.
Biden’s administration is going scorched earth on Trump.
As Trump says, it's not him they are after it's us.
Well Ray: at least the news media is all over it, so we got that going for us.🙄
Yes, we get plenty of live coverage from Fox of Luigi Magione as the world spirals out of control.
