#2 You know we have a Task Force Sinai that's been in place for a long time, since around 1982, which operates on unit rotational basis.

a battalion task force from the 3rd Brigade Combat Team will be part of the Multinational Force and Observers (MFO) peacekeeping contingency based along the southeast coast of the Sinai Peninsula between Eilat, Israel, and Sharm-el-Sheikh, Egypt. Once there, they will man positions and checkpoints, report any violations of the 1979 Egypt-Israel Peace Treaty, and remain prepared to respond to threats. That treaty required Israeli forces to withdraw from the Sinai Peninsula and for Egypt to keep the area demilitarized.

Yep, that's them. In '85, the relieved elements of the 101st were killed in a crash in their returning flight to the States at Gander Newfoundland.

#3 IMO this is once again more evidence that the Bammer recognizes the defeat of the Syrian rebels by Baby Assad, + is getting the Rebs ready to continue the fight via bases in neighboring countries. Also works to contain Iran's influence to where it already is.

E.G. TOPIX > [AlertNet = Reuters] SAUDIS SAY CAN'T BE SILENT [anymore]ON IRAN'S, HEZBOLLAH'S ROLE IN SYRIA.

* SAME > [NewsMax] AUTHOR RABIL: US AID WON'T REMOVE ASSAD.

RELATED SAME ...

> OLIVER NORTH: ADMINISTRATION CAN'T SAVE THE SITUATION IN SYRIA.
> US SENATORS: NO CONFIDENCE IN OBAMA ADMINISTRATION TO REMOVE ASSAD, DEFEAT AL-QAEDA GROUPS IN SYRIA.

versus

* INDIAN DEFENCE FORUM > KERRY:US, RUSSIA NOT GOING TO BACK OFF HELPING RIVALS IN SYRIAN WAR.

As per the Contras + anti-Soviet Afghan war, etc. the Bammer must know it will likely be left to his post-2017 POTUS successor to induce or see the downfall of the Assad regime.

Again, iff I were Japan, ROK, Philippines, Vietnam, ASEAN, AFPAK + India, I would be feeling very nervousy twitchy about the reliability of the US commitment to their security vee Rising China - DITTO FOR THE ANTI-IRAN KSA + SUNNI GOVTS-STATES IN THE MIDDLE EAST.

Besides the on-going sequester + threats from sudden or near-term new US econ recession or worse, going into the 2014 elex now comeths a militantly pro-Obama-vs-anti-Obama US Congress bent on rejecting the legislations supported or proposed by the Party-dominated Chamber in opposition.

E.G. THE US SENATE PASSES AN IMMIGRATION BILL THAT IS ANTICIPATED TO FAIL IN THE GOP-CONTROLLED HOUSE, WHILE THE HOUSE PASSES AN ABORTION BILL THAT IS ANTICIPATED TO FAIL IN THE DEMOCRAT-CONTROLLED SENATE.

WINNER = CHINA vee Japan, etc.; + OBAMA = "MR. EXECUTIVE ACTION" whom gets to PCorrectly claim the US can't help its overseas allies agz China + Iran because its not only TOO COSTLY, BUT NOW A MILITANTLY DIVIDED CONGRESS IS TOO SECTARIAN TO INTERVENE ON ANYTHING FOR ANYBODY OVERSEAS.

Caliphate, Nuke-wannabe Rising Iran wins in the ME, "post-US" Rising China wins in both the East China Sea + South China, US LOSES CREDIBILITY + AUTHORITY IN ALL + FORCED TO ROLLBACK AROUND THE WORLD.

#4 As said before, iff China does NOT concede or compromise agz Japan, etc. in ECS + SCS, + instead chooses to militarily escalate, TO AVOID A NUCLEAR CONFRONTATION OR WAR WD CHINA THE BAMMER = USA MAY HAVE TO MAKE SIGNIFICANT CONCESSIONS THAT NEITHER AMER'S ALLIES NOR THE AMER MAINSTREAM/VOTERS WILL ACCEPT OR TOLERATE.

[MYSTERIOUS MASSIVE BULK PURCHASES OF HOLLOW-POINT AMMO + VEHICLES, ETC. BY FEMA here].

Lest we fergit, "MULTI-POLAR WORLD" = in the view or mindset of Russia, China, Iran, etal DOES N-O-T MEAN THE US + NATO-EU DOMINATE THE FUTURE OWG-NWO AS THEY DID DURING THE COLD WAR.

"PARITY", ALBEIT ROUGH, N-O-T SUPERIORITY OR DOMINATION.

The Superpower USA is just "one nation among many" in the new OWG-NWO = Space Govt-Order, + no longer the only Global Leader either in "sole" or in "bloc".

The Washington-critters are aware the US must give up sovereign power-n-authority to the OWG + NAU, etc. BUT THEY DON'T KNOW WID CERTAINTY HOW MUCH + THEY'RE PREFERABLY NOT ASKING THE VOTERS IFF THEY WANT IT.

They're NOT explaining + they're NOT asking.
