Im hearing the Kurds made a deal with Assad and Russia. Assad is going to he sending troops to the Turkish border and will use his airforce to police the skies along with Russians.

Now, it still stands to he seen how effective this is. None of this might deter the Turks. And if Russia shoots down a Turkish plane its basically inviting war with NATO.

But lets say this new deal between Assad and the Kurds does actually work, Trump would have literally given the only real American allies in the region over to Russia. Idk how any of this makes sense. The Kurds in the region went out of their way numerous times to ally with the US over Russia even though Russia tried cutting a deal with them numerous times. The Kurds took short term Ls for the perceived value of allying with America. Thats Kurds literally tried hard as fuck to stay on Americas side.

And then Trump just gave them to Russia. The way Trump just literally works to further Russias interests is still crazy to me.

i didnt see this....but its interesting....

seems like fluff to me.

the kurds was abandoned by russian once before.

i agree i think he handed it over....an with that the growing influence in the region.

turkey is a key point.....

iran is a strategic point.

control these two and you can control the global economy.

i hate this
 
Also its funny that Trump is saying the Kurds are purposefully allowing ISIS prisoners to escape. Like fam first of they should. Why should they keep their part of the deal and use resources to keep secure ISIS prisoners when they are getting attacked? Ofcourse they are gonna use all their resources to defend themselves.

Bruh I said this before. Not sure if it was here or the IC but Iran is by far the strongest and most influential country in the middle east.

First, you got Iran itself. Arguably the strongest and smartest military in the middle east. Its between them and Turkey.

And then Iraq is totally under Iranian influence. Iraq is basically a puppet government of Iran and all the US guns and tanks that goes to the Iraqi army is basically arming an iranian proxy. Past the army, you also have about 150,000 armed and trained shiite militia in Iraq. Iran could literally split Iraq in two. Doesnt make sense to do it cause Iraq is already theirs.

And then you got lebanon where Hezbollah actually became the ruling party of the country. Hezbollahs military arm is over 200k+ strong and ofcourse they are an iranian proxy army. So again, Iran could literally split Lebanon in half but they dont have too because they already control the country.

And then you have Yemen. There is a civil war going on there which the Houthi rebels have pretty much won and the war would be over by now if it wasnt for Saudia Arabia and the US backing the old Yemen government. The Houthis and by proxy Yemen is also under Irans control.

Ofcourse you also have Syria. Iran actually sent in their own military to fight with Assad about 4 years ago when Assad was teetering on collapse and with Russia, they saved Assad. So Syria is def under Irans control.

There are also Shiite militias in multiple other countries that pledge allegiance to Iran in other middle east and African countries.

Ofcourse you have all the Azeri people in like Azerbaijan that consider Iran the mother land.

And now of this deal with Syria and the Kurds actually ends up being a succrsful deal, you can add the Kurds to that list.

Looking at it this way, Iran is by far the strongest country in the middle east. Thats why they can bug out and shoot down American drones and capture British ships and no one can do much to them because they will literally engulf the whole middle east in war.

And I say all that to say who is Irans most important ally? Its Russia. So Russia literally has half of the middle east under his influence and the US just gave Russia another chip.

Shit literally makes no sense other than Trump still looking out for Putin.

And all of this is going down with Iran being under extreme economic sanctions for years.

Thats why they are considered the smartest military in the middle east because they are known to spend money in very creative ways.

Their biggest enemy is Saudia Arabia who spends way more money on their army but in a fair one without US backing, Iran would destroy them.

Iran is dangerous as fuck.

This also shows how much influence Russia has in the region.

Russia literally owns all the oil in the middle east. Thats a scary thought.

Facebook’s Zuckerberg Reportedly Held Private Dinners With Lindsey Graham, Tucker Carlson and Other Conservative Pundits


A new report reveals that Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has been secretly talking with numerous prominent conservatives in the last few months to discuss the crossroad between his platform and free speech.

Politico reports that Zuckerberg started hosting dinners with conservatives and trying to cultivate new friendships back in July amid concerns about those who accuse social media platforms of censorship and left-wing bias. A source says that Zuckerberg is especially worried about the government taking action to break up his company.

“The discussion in Silicon Valley is that Zuckerberg is very concerned about the Justice Department, under Bill Barr, bringing an enforcement action to break up the company,” a source told Politico’s Natasha Bertrand. “So the fear is that Zuckerberg is trying to appease the Trump administration by not cracking down on right-wing propaganda.”

The report says that some of the most prominent conservatives who met Zuckerberg at his homes include Senator Lindsey Graham, Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, and radio host Hugh Hewitt, all of whom have accused tech companies of treating conservatives unfairly. Other names of interest include Mary Katharine Ham, Ben Shapiro, Matt Continetti, Guy Benson, Brent Bozell and Byron York.

The news comes as Facebook also faces criticism from those who say it doesn’t do enough to police the spread of incendiary content and misinformation.

Senator Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) recently slammed Facebook for allowing political ads to be run without independent fact-checking. She made her point recently by submitting a deliberately-false ad about Zuckerberg to Facebook to see if it would be accepted, and it was.
