Eagle eyes, they were watching from Camp Liberty?

[Zambeezi]

The Intercept (now) trying to backpedal/spin it's way out of the nosedive their reputation took
after co-publishing the 'leaks' with known State dept/CIA mouthpiece NYT.
This is a lame attempt to try and (now) 'distance' themselves from the propagandists
and regain their (now corrupted) 'independent' status by aligning themselves with anti-war crowd
saying 'Iraq was a 'mistake'.
Won't work. We see what yer doing.

State department’s funding, wahabbi/salafi ideology results in portraying #Iran as an imperialist force in #Iraq. #US killed 1.5M Iraqis based on a lie, for the oil, also to destabilize the region for arms export.

Iran accepted Iraq’s request and defended them against #ISIS.

Very important leak. Paraphrasing: we invaded Iraq and Iran won the war. Just hope people get the right message and the facts are twisted to support aggression towards Iran.

It was not a "Mistake". It was a deliberate, premeditated act of war for profit, in violation of the Geneva Convention and the Nuremberg Principle, that killed over a million people. It should have resulted in a trial and death sentences for the perpetrators.

Many missiles fired by Israel were intercepted, some however, hit their target.

These air strikes were done right before the Idlib offensive continues. Hmmmm

The result of this attack was devastating.

A whole family from Northern Daraa were martyred in their sleep and several SAA troops sadly passed too.

I'll post their names and pay respect when I know this information.

#France's plan with the #Balkans, tske the market shares first and later we will see:

The key could be a two-step system, with countries integrating the single market first, and then the EU once it is reformed. https://t.co/8fjLSNhSK9

— Ali Özkök (@Ozkok_A) November 20, 2019

This is Brussels trying to claw back the ground they are losing to Indo/China/Rus trade network successes.
Kolomoisky actually got it right and called them out regarding Ukraine.
Balkans are no different.
'They' will NEVER be 'good enuff' to join the 'first tier' EU 'club'.
So... Macron is tasked with the 'sales job' to usher in a 2 tier EU system to try and prevent further hemorrhaging and loss to Russ/China.
At the same time...
I expect Putin-in-Paris next month to bring some 'surprises'.
perhaps even promises/pledges to end the criminal EU sanctions...
in exchange
for Russian/Ukraine 'detente' and resumption of flows through Ukr pipelines.
We'll see...
the best part will be to watch Pompeo shit his pants. hahaha.
