–The Syrian People Want Him
Prior to the conflict which ignited in 2011 when foreign players started to destabilize Syria with armed terrorist groups, Syria was a peaceful, secular, tolerant, prosperous, largely self-sufficient state. In areas controlled by the legitimate government, this is still entirely the case.
News that a recent opinion poll has put the SPD for the first time one point ahead of Angela’s Merkel’s CDU/CSU bloc has inevitably triggered speculation about whether or not she is now in serious danger of losing the forthcoming German parliamentary elections.
The Kremlin has released a summary of a telephone conversation between Russian President Putin and German Chancellor Merkel, which took place yesterday Saturday 7th February 2017.
Note that the summary does not say who initiated the call. The content of the summary however suggests strongly that it was Putin.
The summary, which is unusually detailed, reads as follows
RT | February 7, 2017 Following a year-long inquiry, German intelligence agencies have found no reliable evidence of a Russian “disinformation campaign” against Chancellor Angela Merkel’s government, according to media citing cabinet and security sources. The German intelligence service (BND) and the counterintelligence agency (BfV) had been searching for evidence of Russian interference in the […]
Just a few days ago on RT’s Crosstalk programme Peter Lavelle, myself and the two other guests, Dmitry Babich and Ed Lozansky, discussed the Ukrainian regime’s likely reaction to the new Trump administration.

A crucial element in respecting the sovereignty of foreign states is an implicit understanding that the decisions a state might make during a negotiation process, may not always be that which is desired by the other partner.
Despite an exaggerated response by the mainstream media, the current open negotiations between the US and Mexico over Trump’s border wall represent everything a robust bilateral negotiation should be. The words exchanged between the US and Mexico have thus far been frank and the various quid-pro-quos exchanged have been realistic.
The SPD’s decision to select Martin Schulz, the German President of the European Parliament, as its Chancellor designate in this year’s German parliamentary elections, has stirred some speculation of a more substantive challenge to German Chancellor Merkel’s CDU party from the SPD.
Oh, the irony of it all.
Who is still leading their country…
Who is next on the neo-liberal, warmonger regime change list?
Time for forces to unite to beat a common enemy…
