Dr. Gonzo Posted October 9, 2019 Posted October 9, 2019 You guys ready for the next Turkish genocide? I feel bad for the Kurds, everyone hates them in the region. So nobody will make too much noise as Turkey tries to wipe them out Quote
Azeem Posted October 11, 2019 Author Posted October 11, 2019 - Turkey started its action in Northern Syria - Protests against the Iranian backed government in Iraq, more then 100 killed - Saudis are now stranded in Yemen war - US has its fingers in all of it Quote

Azeem Posted October 12, 2019 Author Posted October 12, 2019 Turkey apparently attacked American troops in Syria Quote

They attacked an area close to a US base. What's factual is that a bombing raid by Turkey has destroyed a prison in Syria and thus releasing ISIS scum. Turkey need to be taught a lesson by Europe. Hopefully this will happen. Quote

Turkey knows where all the US bases are/were in Syria. So for them to bomb close to one doesn’t strike me as much of an accident as much as it strikes me as a threat to the US military to clear out and leave the Kurds to be slaughtered Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted October 13, 2019 Posted October 13, 2019 Video footage of Turkish forces executing Kurdish prisoners was posted to social media by a Turkish soldier... Quote
Azeem Posted November 7, 2019 Author Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) Historic peace agreement in Yemen. The conflict started in 1918 when Britain took over the Port of Adan and other parts of Yemen but the then Houthi chief declared it's independent state in the North. The conflict continued ever since one way or the other. Edited November 7, 2019 by Stick With Azeem Quote
Dr. Gonzo Posted November 18, 2019 Posted November 18, 2019 I’m a bit worried about the protests in Iran over the petrol rationing and the petrol prices skyrocketing. The internet for the whole country has been cut since Saturday - nobody’s heard from my uncle in days. Quote
Azeem Posted January 3, 2020 Author Posted January 3, 2020 1 hour ago, Inverted said: So the United States has assassinated Qassem Soleimani, one of Iran's most senior commanders, in Baghdad. Killing a military leader of your rival, with whom you are not officially at war, while he's in a neutral third country. There is no standard by which this isn't an outright act of war. American bloodlust knows no bounds. Some people just want the world to burn Quote
Azeem Posted January 3, 2020 Author Posted January 3, 2020 (edited) Pentagon said it was an order directly from Trump that means officialy USA killed Qassem Soleimani. Edited January 3, 2020 by Azeem Quote
Azeem Posted January 3, 2020 Author Posted January 3, 2020 Trump just tweeted a picture of the American flag Quote
Michael Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 The US have really gone that one step further and have killed such a big Iranian regime figure such as Qassem Soleimani. It's noteworthy that Abu Mahdi Al-Muhandis was also killed in the attack, as he is a very controversial figure, who was accused of terrorist activities by Kuwait years ago. At least 7 people in total are known to have been killed in this US attack. In reality, it shouldn't be too surprising that the US killed these two Iranian backed figures. Trump clearly said that Iran would pay after the US Embassy protests and attack in Baghdad a few days ago. Trump has been shown to be ruthless and he is a person who is not afraid to take military action as we have seen once again with today's news. All this just brings more instability to the Middle East and we can all now expect Iran to retaliate in some way. Lets just hope that things don't become too drastic, as the last thing that anyone humane wants is another major war in the Middle East. Quote
Harry Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 Trump would likely nuke Iran if it helped him stay in power. The scary thing about that is it's one of the few crazy trump acts that I would not trust the American political establishment to prevent. Quote
Azeem Posted January 3, 2020 Author Posted January 3, 2020 America being across the Atlantic sheltered from the consequences of so many of its reckless actions is probably one of the primary reasons why American foreign policy is so fucked up. Iran will lose everything if this escalates into a war while US mainland won't even be effected. 1 Quote

While Europe will probably see another huge wave of refugees heading towards it. All this while the US mainland is not effected at all. Edited January 3, 2020 by Michael Quote

You'd venture some significant economic headwinds though if Iran make this a big deal in the region. Quote
Fairy In Boots Posted January 3, 2020 Posted January 3, 2020 https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2013/09/30/the-shadow-commander great article on Suleimani from 2013 so not a sympathy piece. The Yanks have took a big scalp here, I thought of this guy as a little finger type, pulling strings without getting his own hands dirty Quote

Abu Mahdi was similarly a nasty piece of work. But that is not the point, the point here is that by killing Soleimani, one of the significant figures in the Iranian regime, the US has really gone close to instigating something very serious with Iran. The Iranians are not going to take Soleimani's death lightly and the consequences could be far reaching. 1 Quote
