Geopolitical mosaic: Putin street appeared in Bethlehem, and Hillary Clinton dismissed her hair
“An unarmed reconnaissance aircraft was shot down in the international sky. We should not take our rational response as a sign of weakness. Our anger will be as fierce as our friendship was cordial, ”said the head of the Turkish government.
The prime minister, who had lately made an expressive comment, did not think that it was not the actions of Syria, but the flight of the “Phantom”, which spent 15 minutes in Syrian airspace, very much resembles a provocation - about which representatives gathered in Brussels all 28 NATO member states. However, it is known that the North Atlantic Alliance does not plan a military operation against Syria.
Mr. Erdogan, who wishes “an unarmed reconnaissance aircraft” that has flown from an “international sky” into someone else’s sky, must also be reminded that there is a lively trade in Turkey, near the Syrian border weaponsand the American guys from the CIA for several weeks engaged in the distribution of parties of arms there between groups of Syrian "revolutionaries." Even in the most democratic press in the world, this is acknowledged - for example, in the newspaper "New York Times" (report by Eric Schmitt). By the way, automatic rifles and anti-tank rifles are paid by Turkey, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
This is where the provocation does not smell, but the organization of the war, Mr. Erdogan. And you tell us about the "international sky"!
Susan Rice wants to support peace in Syria. US Permanent Representative to the UN Security Council Susan Rice demanded a peacekeeping operation in Syria, with the approval of the Security Council. About this newspaper writes "Sight" with reference to Interfax.
“We must take more meaningful steps to exert pressure (on Syrian President Bashar Al-Assad), including, in addition to sanctions, the application of Chapter VII of the UN Charter,” she said on Monday, speaking at the UN Security Council.
The aforementioned chapter, called “Actions in Respect of a Threat to Peace, Violation of Peace and Acts of Aggression”, provides for the use of armed forces to maintain peace as decided by the UN Security Council.
According to reports from the United States, the United States, Britain and France are now preparing a new draft resolution providing for increased sanctions against the Syrian government. Two previous projects that opened the way for foreign armed intervention in Syria were previously blocked in the UN Security Council by Russia and China.
The situation makes it even more tense that yesterday the Turkish authorities handed over to the UN a statement in which it was said that the actions of the Syrian military who shot down the Turkish Air Force plane threaten peace and security in the region.
In Washington, the planned coexistence and dialogue in Syria forum was canceled, to which the supreme mufti of Syria, Ahmad Badreddin Hassoun, was invited. “I tell everyone in Europe, I tell America that we will use suicide bombers, who are now in your countries, if you bomb Syria or Lebanon,” Hassoun said, the Council on American-Islamic relations.
It is not clear why the words spoken at the speech in October, quoted in late June. Probably, America did not find other suitable words that would inspire the inhabitants of the advanced democracies, sitting down in front of the televisions, a real horror. By the way, Americans have a way to get rid of Syrian fears: you need to sip Coke and vote for Mitt Romney. This mister yesterday winner of the Utah primaries, knows how to go war on the whole world. Romney, like his associate McCain, is not very kind about the policies of Syria, Iran and Russia, as well as the policies of Mr. Obama.
"Real War." Yesterday, the Syrian President acknowledged that there is a “real war” in the country. He writes about it "Lenta.ru" with reference to SANA.

Shipment of C-300 to Syria canceled. The Russian Federation has suspended the implementation of the contract for the supply of Syria with S-300PMU-2. This is reporting "Lenta.ru"referring to the Vedomosti newspaper, which, in turn, refers to its sources in the Russian military-industrial complex. The shipment of C-300 to Syria is reportedly suspended "on instructions from above."
Quote:
“The very existence of a previously unpublished contract, as Vedomosti says, is confirmed in the annual report of Nizhny Novgorod Machine-Building Plant (part of the Almaz-Antey concern) for 2011 a year. It, in particular, spelled out contracts with Algeria and Syria for the supply of C-300 worth 39 and 105 million dollars, respectively.
Deliveries were to be completed on 2012 - the beginning of 2013 of the year. The shipment of three C-300 divisions to Algeria, according to a Rosoboronexport representative, has already taken place. ”
Perhaps Russia has refused to supply the Syria air defense system because it does not want to complicate relations with Western countries. In 2010, Russia canceled the contract for the supply of C-300PMU-2 to Iran. However, Russia continues to supply Syria with the Beech M-2 medium-range air defense system, the Pantsir-S anti-aircraft missile-gun systems and the Pechora-2М systems.

Therefore, Vladimir Putin added: “But if something happens like that, it’s such a subtle thing, especially if it’s abroad, because if you start to object too much, you can offend people.”
"Marsh" stretched to the West. Alexander Dolmatov, one of the activists of the unregistered party The Other Russia, who participated in the actions on Bolotnaya Square, asked for political asylum in Holland. He writes about it "Lenta.ru" with reference to Interfax.

Irina Fahrion, deputy of the regional council and a representative of the nationalist party Svoboda, demanded to take measures against the obstinate comrade.

Magnitsky Act: Universal? As reported from Washington correspondent ITAR-TASS Andrey SurzhanskyThe “Magnitsky Act” will be merged with a bill granting Russia the permanent status of a normal US trading partner. This was announced yesterday by Democratic Senator Benjamin Cardin, author of the Magnitsky Act.
According to the ITAR-TASS interlocutor, the promotion of the Magnitsky Act now depends on the adoption of a bill granting the status of a normal US trading partner, which means that the Jackson-Vanik amendment is repealed.
Earlier, the Magnitsky Act, which provided for sanctions against Russian officials, was unanimously approved by the Senate Foreign Affairs Committee. According to Mr. Cardin, the document is universal and will be extended to other countries where human rights are violated. “This concerns not only Russia, this bill is universal in its application,” said the senator. - This is exactly what we wanted. If countries where human rights are being violated do not bring those responsible to justice, then other states, following the example of the United States, should prohibit them from entering and using their banking system. ”
Members of the Foreign Affairs Committee adopted the only amendment to the act, which makes it difficult to publicize the “black lists” of people subject to sanctions. Allowed to supplement the plain text of the bill with a secret application. US Secretary of State gets the right to classify the names of those subject to sanctions - for reasons of national security.
Not everyone in the Pentagon is homosexual. Not like the CIA. The Pentagon passed the first in his stories event in honor of LGBT servicemen orientation. Reports about it from Washington correspondent RIA Novosti Maria Tabak.
Defense Secretary General Jay Johnson told several hundred guests at the Pentagon: “Three years ago many of us, including myself, found it hard to believe that in 2012, homosexuals or lesbians serving in the armed forces would be able to honestly talk about their sexual orientation.
Before Johnson on the homosexual holiday were Barack Obama and US Secretary of Defense Leon Panetta. Johnson noted: “How did our military adapt to change?” Better than we thought. I attribute this to the strength of our servicemen, army, navy, air force, marines and coast guard. "
Other celebrants were somewhat upset by the absence at the ceremony of high-ranking officials of the Ministry of Defense.
“It would be nice of them to come. Leaders - they should be leaders in everything, ”the media quotes the words of one guest.
Another guest noted that military leaders were not enthusiastic about holding such an event at the Pentagon - although other departments, such as the CIA, have been conducting them regularly for many years.
Defeated Mr. Hyde. Ginny DiEngelis of "American Thinker" (translation - "InoSMI") admits the view that Hillary Clinton is "somewhat out of it." "She literally and figuratively dismissed her hair," - said the journalist.
Ginny DiEngelis is not just saying that, but refers to some interesting facts from Hillary’s biography.
The Secretary of State, who was born in 1947, concocted the story that her mother Dorothy named her in honor of Everest's conqueror Sir Edmund Hillary. However, he became famous five years after the birth of the future star of the American political Olympus.
Recalling her trip to Bosnia in the 1996 year, Mrs. Clinton, writes DiEngelis, confused the receipt of flowers from the girl at the airport with a rush of sniper fire.
Also, H. Clinton really wanted her family to be at least somehow mixed in with the September 11 crash. Therefore, Hillary stated that her daughter Chelsea was doing jogging near the World Trade Center that tragic morning. In fact, the daughter slept peacefully at home.
Also, the journalist reports that Mrs. Clinton tidied up her "gifts" from the White House, calling it a "clerical" mistake.
This high-ranking lady somehow believes that she played an important role during the peace settlement in Ireland, as well as during the economic recovery of the 1990s.
But one of her jokes: she says that the fall of the Libyan regime and the death of Gaddafi took place after her visit.
“All of this,” writes the journalist, “are just a few examples of wild statements and strange behavior, which until now seemed to be due to political motives.”
“Recently,” continues the author of the article, “having taken off her unchanged gum for hair and throwing off the hairpin, Hillary officially dismissed her hair. In a sense, she "came out of the shadows," as if some kind of fun-loving "party girl."
The journalist went further on how, at the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Mrs. Clinton was seen after midnight sipping chilled “Aguila pilsner cerveza” beer from a bottle in the 12 company of female diplomats.
“Only the discussion of the cheerful bachelorette party calmed down,” writes Ginny DiEngelis, “as at the swearing-in ceremony of US Under-Secretary of State for Public Relations Michael Hummer, the free party lover Hillary“ howled ”again as if she was being put to the Aguila bottles. The US Secretary of State appeared at the usual routine and boring event in purple carnival costume jewelry and green-rimmed sunglasses ... "
The journalist ends her article with these words: “In an environment where the country is rapidly flying into the economic and social abyss, there are several possible explanations for the Secretary of State's behavior: it is likely that Hillary Clinton officially left the camp of people in her right mind, or she spoke with Nancy for too long “Very-crazy-gone” Pelosi (Nancy “Lost It Altogether” Pelosi). It is also possible that she was not interested in convincing the US that she should answer the phone at the White House at three in the morning, or she threw out her estrogen patch, or the secretary of state finally showed her crazy side for more than 20 years. unsuccessfully tried to hide. "
Thus, Dr. Jekyll disappeared and the frightening Mr. Hyde appeared to the world.
But this is Mrs. Clinton said once: “The essence of smart power is smart people!” However, she also admitted: “Everyone would like me to sit at home, bake pancakes and serve tea”.
