Putin Orders Massive Strike Against Saudi Arabia If West Attacks Syria
2013-08-29
A grim "urgent action memorandum" issued today from the office of President Putin to the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation is ordering a "massive military strike" against Saudi Arabia in the event that the West attacks Syria.
Ah. That explains the recent discussion between the House of Saud and Vlad...
According to Kremlin sources familiar with this extraordinary "war order," Putin became "enraged" after his early August meeting with Saudi Prince Bandar bin Sultan who warned that if Russia did not accept the defeat of Syria, Saudi Arabia would unleash Chechen terrorists under their control to cause mass death and chaos during the Winter Olympics scheduled to be held 7-23 February 2014 in Sochi, Russia.
They didn't seriously expect Vlad to knuckle under to that kind of threat, did they? Did they think he was Obama?
Lebanese newspaper As-Safir confirmed this amazing threat against Russia saying that Prince Bandar pledged to safeguard Russia's naval base in Syria if the Assad regime is toppled, but he also hinted at Chechen terrorist attacks on Russia's Winter Olympics in Sochi if there is no accord by stating: "I can give you a guarantee to protect the Winter Olympics next year. The Chechen groups that threaten the security of the games are controlled by us."

Prince Bandar went on to say that Chechens operating in Syria were a pressure tool that could be switched on an off. "These groups do not scare us. We use them in the face of the Syrian regime but they will have no role in Syria's political future."

London's The Telegraph News Service further reported today that Saudi Arabia has secretly offered Russia a sweeping deal to control the global oil market and safeguard Russia's gas contracts, if the Kremlin backs away from the Assad regime in Syria, an offer Putin replied to by saying "Our stance on Assad will never change. We believe that the Syrian regime is the best speaker on behalf of the Syrian people, and not those liver eaters", and which Prince Bandar in turn warned that there can be "no escape from the military option" if Russia declines the olive branch.

Critical to note, and as we had previously reported on in our 28 January 2013 report "Obama Plan For World War III Stuns Russia," the Federal Security Services (FSB) confirmed the validity of the released hacked emails of the British based defence company, Britam Defence that stunningly warned the Obama regime was preparing to unleash a series of attacks against both Syria and Iran in a move Russian intelligence experts warned could very well cause World War III.

According to this FSB report, Britam Defence, one of the largest private mercenary forces in the world, was the target of a "massive hack" of its computer files by an "unknown state sponsored entity" this past January who then released a number of critical emails between its top two executives, founder Philip Doughty and his Business Development Director David Goulding.
The two most concerning emails between Doughty and Goulding, this report says, states that the Obama regime has approved a "false flag" attack in Syria using chemical weapons, and that Britam has been approved to participate in the West's warn on Iran, and as we can read:

Email 1: Phil, We've got a new offer. It's about Syria again. Qataris propose an attractive deal and swear that the idea is approved by Washington. We'll have to deliver a CW (chemical weapon) to Homs (Syria), a Soviet origin g-shell from Libya similar to those that Assad should have. They want us to deploy our Ukrainian personnel that should speak Russian and make a video record. Frankly, I don't think it's a good idea but the sums proposed are enormous. Your opinion? Kind regards David

Email 2: Phil, Please see attached details of preparatory measures concerning the Iranian issue. Participation of Britam in the operation is confirmed by the Saudis.

With the events now spiraling out of control in Syria, and London's Independent News Service now reporting that Prince Bandar is "pushing for war," Russian foreign ministry spokesman Alexander Lukashevich further warned the West today by stating, "Attempts to bypass the Security Council, once again to create artificial groundless excuses for a military intervention in the region are fraught with new suffering in Syria and catastrophic consequences for other countries of the Middle East and North Africa."

Heedless of Russian warnings which have fallen on deaf ears, however, British Prime Minister David Cameron this morning recalled the British Parliament to vote on attacking Syria as the Obama regime abruptly cancelled their meeting with Russia scheduled for tomorrow on finding a path to peace for Syria, and the West begins its plans to attack the Syrian nation "within days."

As Syria itself has warned that should it be attacked by the West there will be "global chaos," the Western peoples themselves have not been told of the fact that on 17 May 2013, Putin ordered Russian military forces to "immediately move" from Local War to Regional War operational status and to be "fully prepared" to expand to Large-Scale War should either the US or EU enter into the Syrian Civil War, a situation they are still in at this very hour.

With Putin's previous order, and as we had reported on in our 17 May report "Russia Issues "All-Out War" Alert Over Syria," and now combined with his new ordering of massive retaliatory strikes against Saudi Arabia, any attack on Syria is viewed by Russia as being an attack on itself.

And as we had previously explained in great detail, the fight over Syria, being led by Saudi Arabia and Qatar and their lap-dog Western allies, has but one single objective: To break Russia's hold on the European Union natural gas market which a pipeline through Syria would accomplish, and as reported by London's Financial Times News Service this past June:

And in what is, perhaps, the most unimaginable cause to start World War III over Syria was noted by Russian Foreign Ministry spokesman, Aleksandr Lukashevich who said this past week: "We're getting more new evidence that this criminal act was of a provocative nature," he stressed. "In particular, there are reports circulating on the Internet, in particular that the materials of the incident and accusations against government troops had been posted for several hours before the so-called attack. Thus, it was a pre-planned action."

For the West to have so sloppily engineered yet another "false flag" attack to justify a war where they posted the videos of this so-called chemical weapons attack a full day before it was said to occur is the height of arrogance and disdain, but which their sleep-walking citizens, yet again, will fall for as they have done so many times in the past.

#33  Maybe Russia could demonstrate on the Saudi's what a REAL chem warfare strike looks like.

#31  Saudi Arabia admitted controlling Checynian terrorists? I think not.

Two possibles:

1. Someone in the Russian government leaked the minutes of the Bandar-Putin meeting in what would be a diplomatic-assassination, or

2. It's Iranian/Hesb'allah disinformation.

Either way, the Russians haven't confirmed nor denied it.

#26  Don't want to play that game.

No. We don't. Too bad Obama didn't think about all of these ramifications before he started spouting off about his red line. Now he looks like a foolish coward if he doesn't do something. But it might not be as clean and easy he thought.

I think the point that is made here is Putin won't take it any more lightly if we hit Syria than Obama would if Putin hit the Soddies. Whether or not Putin has the wherewithal to do anything about it is the question. But I still think Obama was a fool to shoot off his mouth that way.

The problem is that it would require ballistic or sub rather than theater boosters to deliver the pay load. That means the strategic forces which are nose counted and tracked in the various arms agreements.

Any launch will set the boards alight in Cheyenne Mountain. Not good because the weaseler in chief isn't the only one who can set DEFCON, acts can auto kick the process that bring forces up. Decision cycle time quickly collapse which as well know isn't one of the guy's good abilities. Remember, while technically he has the launch code, it still only takes two guys with keys to light the birds (or one in the case of the Navy).

Don't want to play that game.

Now after what seemed like about a week
The lion charged out like a mad flock of sheep.
"What we've got to do," he roared, kinda whiny,
"Is stomp us a mudhole in Pencilneck's hiney.
I'll make sure he knows that Camelite is my name,
And fluffin' up muggerfluffers is my favorite game!"
Then he growled at his spy boy, "Yo, summon my damsels,"
And out from the harem strutted three fancy camels.
With a shake of his mane and a prayer to the Prophet,
They up and took off on his stretch magic carpet.

They flew through the night and they flew so damn fast
That they knocked several buraqs smack flat on they ass.
The call was "feet dry" at the pale break of day,
And they landed beside the Krak des Chevaliers.
The lion ran up to the gate and was knocking,
When down from the parapet rang some jive talking:
"Hey lion boy, what you doin' round here?
Why don't you jump up and kiss my presidential rear?"
Now the lion wasn't used to being talked to like that.
He took a running start and knocked the door down flat.

The lion chased Pencilneck all through the castle;
When he caught him they had them one hell of a wrassle.
"I'm a teach you to cut neurotoxical farts,
By dividing your Alawhite ass in three parts!"
"You tryin' to do me like you done did Osama.
I ain't goin' for that sh-t. Say hi to your momma!"
Now just when the lion was winning the fight,
An important new piece of intel came to light:
For Pencilneck pulled off his Pencilneck mask,
Revealing - hush up, I'm a tell you, don't ask -
Revealing - shush, wait for it, hold your breath -
Revealing the dreaded Masque of teh Red Death.

to be cont'd.

#18  An interesting theory, but even if true, exactly how is Russia going to attack Saudia Arabia? The only aircraft with the range are Backfires & Bears and they will get eaten alive by the Saudi, Kuwait and other airforces of the region that will stand with the Saudi's. And unless they base from Iran, the Turks & Georgians probably aren't going to allow the Russians to overfly their countries.

#17  Way out in the desert in the sand and the dirt
Lived a signifying preezy in a world of hurt
For heap long time he'd been king of the jebel
But lately he'd had a little trouble with rebels
Now he wasn't too happy, cause them monkeys played rough
They talked about his daddy and they threw nasty stuff
The fractious little scamps seized each opportunity
To damage his standing in the global community
Till finally one day those monks had the brass
To frame him for passing some poisonous gas

Now the news travelled fast to some far-away places
The hyenas brought the tale to the lion's oasis.
When the king of the lions was told the sad news
He was fixing to fly to the gulf for a cruise
He said, "Damn, I best do some decisive-ass sh-t
Or the elephants'll tease me and say I'm unfit.
I shall consult with my aides regarding an appropriate, measured response to this unprecedented humanitarian disaster.
Don't disturb us, we gonna be playing canasta."
The hyenas stood there with their mouths open wide
And one or two looked almost dissatisfied.

Now after what seemed like about a week
The lion came charging out like a flock of sheep.

#16  Russia repor also threatened to attack + destroy the US ABM-BMD Shield in Europe.

Bandar can't be that stupid to unleash Chechen terrorists agz Russia - IMO all he's doing is giving Moscow justification to go full monty/bore in the Caucasus, + annihilate or genocide the Militants + Muslims.

AFAIK Moscow hasn't returned any bodies of Somali Pirates or Caucasus Militants they've captured + interrogated, + can't confim or deny the same were arrested, captured, or even iff they existed in life.
