Russia Gears Up for Big Syrian Offensive? More on Deir ez Zor
According to Bloomberg that is the case? I will reserve judgement at this point.Bloomberg builds it’s entire narrative around the construction of a bridge that it alleges can carry 8000 vehicles a day! Wow, 8,000 vehicles a day! That’s a lot of vehicles. And maybe that bridge can carry that type of load? As in, that's it's maximum load capability.... but, will it be carrying that load? Every day? Every minute of every day?

Ron Paul on the Kurdish Independence Vote – Progress or Danger?
The US was strongly opposed to Monday’s independence referendum in Iraqi Kurdistan, as were the countries in the region. The US wanted to manage the Kurds’ relationship with Baghdad, but it did not work out the way Washington’s planners hoped. How did we get to the point? To a large degree due to the US invasion of Iraq. Will the vote result in smaller government and more freedom for Kurds in the region? Or will it mean war? And what about oil flow? More in today’s Ron Paul Liberty Report:

Socrates, in contrast, finds 21st-century political thought shallow and confused. But perhaps it's his fault...

Are the New Borders of Syria Being Drawn Right Now in Deir ez Zor?
I changed the headline just a bit to make it a question rather then a foregone conclusion, since I'm hoping this is still a question.
