First shalt thou take out the Holy Pin, then shalt thou count to three, no more, no less.
Three shall be the number thou shalt count, and the number of the counting shall be three.
Four shalt thou not count, neither count thou two, excepting that thou then proceed to three.
Five is right out.
Once the number three, being the third number, be reached, then lobbest thou thy Holy Hand Grenade towards thy foe, who being naughty in My sight, shall snuff it.
[Jpost] The reported departure of the Russians is another blow to Khalifa Haftar ...Self-proclaimed Field Marshal, served in the Libyan army under Muammar Qadaffy, and took part in the coup that brought Qadaffy to power in 1969. He became a prisoner of war in Chad in 1987. While held prisoner, he and his fellow officers formed a group hoping to overthrow Qadaffy, so it's kind of hard to describe him as a Qadaffy holdover. He was released around 1990 in a deal with the United States government and spent nearly two decades in the United States, gaining US citizenship. In 1993, while living in the United States, he was convicted in absentia of crimes against the Jamahiriya and sentenced to death. Haftar held a senior position in the anti-Qadaffy forces in the 2011 Libyan Civil War. In 2014 he was commander of the Libyan Army when the General National Congress (GNC) refused to give up power in accordance with its term of office. Haftar launched a campaign against the GNC and its Islamic fundamentalist allies. His campaign allowed elections to take place to replace the GNC, but then developed into a civil war. Guess you can't win them all. Actually, he is, but slowly... 's Libya National Army (LNA).

Absolute best kind of war. We get to observe Russians, Turks and Syrian terrorists operating without getting our hair mussed. Outstanding.

/\ A 'stay at home - non-meddling' US foreign policy. Who could we possibly have to thank for that ?
The Deep State shadow government and their MIC underlords are not amused.

The GNA provides a home for a plethora of Islamist movements. It is supported by the consistently feckless EU. With any luck, Tripoli could easily become the next Tora Bora.

Iraqi security forces storm Baghdadiya TV station, detain employees & will not release them unless they promise not to work there. Not the first time it's happened. They were accused of supporting terrorists three or four years ago -- the're pro-Sunni. In 2010 they announced they were pulling out of Iraq permanently. https://t.co/tPwjV0FBuj

[ALMASDARNEWS] A satellite image shared on the social media platform, Twitter, this past weekend showed the location of the Ottoman Turkish military’s air defense system inside Syria.
Based on the satellite image, the Ottoman Turkish military’s air defense system has been deployed to the town of al-Mastoumah, which is located just south of Idlib city.
Al-Mastoumah is not only located near the administrative capital of the Idlib Governorate, but its also strategically located along the Idlib-Latakia Highway (M-4 Highway).
The location is also located near the city of Ariha, which is expected to be a target for the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), should they resume their offensive in the Idlib Governorate.
With its location so close to the Syrian Army’s front-lines, it is highly likely that the latter’s air force will be unable to launch any strikes deep into the Idlib region.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
