Kosovo, Romania, Albania and others. At least ten countries have expressed their willingness to take part in US combat operations in Syria, reports today Interfax.
“We are conducting numerous negotiations in closed session regarding the readiness of countries to participate in one capacity or another. We are talking about military, public, as well as financial support, ”State Department spokeswoman Jen Psaki said at a briefing.
According to her, publicly supported the possible US military operation in Syria, Australia, Albania, Canada, Denmark, France, Poland, Romania, Turkey and Kosovo.
Dined and parted. As transmits RIA News"The working dinner of the leaders of G20 in Peterhof confirmed the divergence of their positions on Syria. This was announced by Italian Prime Minister Enrico Letta.
"The dinner has just ended, during which the divergence of positions on Syria was confirmed," he wrote on Twitter.
Vladimir Putin said he did not rule out Moscow’s agreement on a military operation in Syria, if Damascus’s fault in the use of chemical weapons is proved, but only with the sanction of the UN Security Council: “I do not rule out this (Russian consent). But I want to draw your attention to one absolutely fundamental circumstance. In accordance with existing international law, only the Security Council of the United Nations can authorize the use of weapons against a sovereign state. Any other reasons, methods that would justify the use of force against an independent and sovereign state, are unacceptable, and they can only be qualified as aggression. ”
News from Congress. The draft resolution authorizing the use of force against the Syrian government is presented in the US House of Representatives. Its authors are Van Hollen (Democrat from Maryland) and Jerry Connolly (Democrat from Virginia). Told about it correspondent ITAR-TASS Andrey Surzhansky.
The project gives the US president "the authority to use US forces in Syria to prevent and deter further use of chemical weapons." At the same time, the document excludes the possibility of "deploying the US armed forces on the territory of the SAR, except for cases when it may be necessary to conduct operations to rescue US military personnel." The operation in Syria is given sixty days since the adoption of the resolution.
A similar project is being considered in the senate.
Meanwhile, unofficial calculations of opponents and supporters of the strike against Syria are going on in the US Congress. It is reported that in the House of Representatives the majority of Republicans are opposed to the military resolution.
Not only congressmen are unhappy with the planned strike on Syria. Ordinary Americans also oppose the attack.
Americans against Obama. Most US citizens oppose a military operation in Syria. This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted by the Center for Pugh, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Dmitry Kirsanov.
According to the survey, 48% of Americans do not support the idea of launching rocket-bombing attacks on Syria. For the use of military force against Syria stands only 29% of citizens. 23 percentages admit that they do not know the answer to the question of whether an operation should be carried out.
74% of respondents believe that a strike on Syria will lead to a surge in negative attitudes towards the United States and its allies in the region. 61% of respondents believe that the Syrian campaign will result in new long-term commitments.
In the effectiveness of bombing as a means of preventing the use of toxic substances in Syria, 33% of respondents believe. 51 percentage believes that a military operation against Syria will not allow to achieve the goals that are set for it.
Americans believe that Barack Obama did not really explain why the United States should conduct a military operation. 48% of respondents adhere to this point of view, and 32% of respondents expressed the opposite opinion.
The study was conducted by telephone among thousands of adult citizens of the United States.
The opposition will defend Syria along with the fighters of Assad. As Maria Kuptsova writes ("Russian newspaper"), one of the leaders of the Syrian opposition warned Washington that US military action would be a signal for retaliatory suicide attacks. About this in an interview with FNA (Iran), said the Secretary General of the opposition Syrian party "Al-Shabab" Mahir Mirhij.
He said: “Defense of the Motherland for us is above internal differences in the state. Although at the moment we are in opposition to the government, we believe that protecting the homeland from outside invasion is much more important. Therefore, we have created several battalions of suicide bombers that can conduct operations on American facilities in the Middle East. ”
He then warned the White House that even minor Western interventions would lead to unpredictable consequences and a prompt response from the Damascus armed forces.
Imad Tufaili ("Voice of Russia") interviewed Mirhija. The interviewee first explained that Syria was facing a threat to national security. Syrians against any military invasion. In addition, he noted, neither the Assad regime, nor the internal Syrian opposition used chemical weapons. According to experts, it was used by radical Islamists who penetrated from the territory of Turkey.
At the same time, Mirhij noted that not all armed fighters will change their position. Moderate groups from the internal opposition can go to the government. These people are against the current government, but they will not fight against the Syrians. “When the destruction of the Syrian people is on the agenda, there is no time for disputes,” noted the interviewee. “It's crazy if the world believes that we, the Syrian people, are just waiting for an attack on our own.”
As for the Syrian Free Army, its head, waiting for intervention, showed itself in all its glory:
Streamlined Ban Ki-moon. The UN Secretary General, regarding the preparation of a legislative base in Washington for attacking Syria, bypassing the UN Charter, thinks something strange. On Wednesday, Deputy Secretary General Secretary Farhan Haq told reporters: “This is explained by the principle of state sovereignty. These are internal legislative processes. He (the general secretary) understands this. ”
As noted by correspondent ITAR-TASS Oleg ZeleninIn recent months, Ban Ki-moon has expressed concern about what is happening in other countries, particularly in Egypt. The Secretary General called on the new authorities of the country to release the former head of state together with the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood or to start legal proceedings on their cases. Interestingly, the events in Egypt did not overlap with the UN Charter, in contrast to the processes on the use of force against Syria, initiated by the US President in Congress. Regarding the latest statements by the American leadership, the UN Secretary General noted that “he took them into account”.
So, let us add, Syria has become the “internal” affair of the United States, and Ban Ki-moon took this “note”. Soon the UN will come to the point that any place on the planet will be declared the sovereignty zone of the United States. And the internal affairs of Syria, Iran or the DPRK will be considered the internal affairs of the United States.
Later, another statement came from the UN Secretary General.
Last night, he stated that the Syrian conflict has no military solution. According to "Lenta.ru" With reference to RIA Novosti, at the G20 summit in St. Petersburg, the head of the international organization stressed that new supplies of arms to any of the parties to the conflict are unacceptable. At the same time, Ban Ki-moon said that any response to the alleged chemical attack in Syria must be within the framework of the UN Charter.
The American intervention will be paid by the Arabs. As transmits correspondent RIA "Novosti" Alexey Bogdanovsky, the Arab monarchies offered to assume the costs of US force intervention in Syria. This was announced on Wednesday in Congress by John Kerry.
“With regard to the fact that the Arab countries offered to assume the cost and evaluate (her), the answer is yes, indeed. They offered. This proposal is being considered, ”said Kerry.
“In fact, some of them said that if the US is ready to do all this, as we did earlier in other countries, they will take these costs. This is how they are devoted to us. This is not in the plans, and no one talks about it, but they talk about it seriously, ”added the head of the State Department.
Saudi al-Faisal, Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia, said: “Arab countries must respond to requests from the legitimate representatives of the Syrian people (opposition) for help from the international community in order to end the bloody massacre.”
At the same time, limited US use of military force in Syria will cost the US budget tens of millions of dollars, said Pentagon chief Chuck Hagel. Together with John Kerry and the Chairman of the Committee of the Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, General Martin Dempsey, he spoke at a hearing in the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives of the Congress, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Ivan Lebedev.
True, independent military experts believe that the cost of the operation in Syria will be calculated not in the tens, but in the hundreds of millions of dollars. By the most conservative estimates, its value will exceed 200 million dollars. One Tomahawk cruise missile costs the Pentagon about 1,5 million dollars.
One of the congressmen recalled that the topic of the costs of the operation in Syria had previously been addressed by General Dempsey, who warned of billions of dollars. Some measures proposed by a number of legislators, including “hawk” McCain, seem extremely costly to him. The introduction of a no-fly zone into Syria will require one-time expenses in the amount of 500 million dollars, and the preservation of its regime will require billions of dollars a month.
Pacifist Hagel got to the Russians. The tradition of blaming Russians in the USA will probably never die.
According to correspondent ITAR-TASS Ivan LebedevOn Wednesday, the US Department of Defense disavowed Chuck Hagel’s statement about Russia's supply of chemical weapons to Syria.
“Minister Hagel spoke of the well-known links between Syria and Russia in the field of conventional weapons,” said Pentagon press secretary George Little.
Speaking earlier at a hearing in the Foreign Affairs Committee of the US House of Representatives, Hagel answered a question from a lawmaker about Syrian arsenals. "It is no secret that the Assad regime has significant stocks of chemical weapons," the minister said. To the clarifying question of where these weapons came from Damascus, Hagel replied that the Syrians were “supplying Russia”. He added: “Others also supply them with these chemical weapons. Some amount they make themselves. "
The Pentagon later admitted that the statement was untrue. Little, who had to wriggle out, made up the following phrase: "At present, Russia supplies the Syrian regime with various military equipment and means of combat support, some of which can be modified or used for the purposes of the chemical weapons program."
By the way, the Russian reaction followed the statement of Hagel.
The head of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation, Sergei Ivanov, called the “bullshit” accusations against Russia of supplying weapons of mass destruction to Syria, reports RIA News".
“After I heard that at first the head of the Pentagon had declared that we were supplying chemical weapons to Syria, and then got better, no, not chemical weapons, but the means for their development and production — that is, excuse me, bullshit. And it is used simply in order for people who are not well-versed in this matter to throw in another idea, which is ultimately aimed at something we all understand perfectly, ”Ivanov told reporters.
He recalled that for a long time he headed the government commission on the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, and therefore knows well that Russia did not make such supplies.
John Boehner will not meet with the Russians. Speaker of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, John Boehner, refused to meet with Russian colleagues who intended to discuss a vote on the use of force in Syria. Reports about it "Lenta.ru" with reference to CNN.
A spokesman for Bonera confirmed that the speaker rejected the request for a meeting, transmitted through Russian diplomats.
The Russian Embassy in Washington nevertheless reported that the visit of representatives of both chambers of the Federal Assembly would take place next week. Russian parliamentarians expressed a desire to meet with senators and members of the House of Representatives.
How other congressmen will respond to the request for a meeting is not known.
The Russian Foreign Ministry told about stuffing. Russian experts have issued a conclusion on incidents involving the use of chemical warfare agents in Khan al-Asal (a suburb of Aleppo), reports "RT" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
“We pay attention to the massive injection into the information space of various kinds of materials, called upon - even before the appearance of the results of the UN investigation - to place the responsibility for the possible use of chemical weapons in Syria on official Damascus. Thereby “preparing the ground” for the use of force against him. With this in mind, we consider it possible to share the main conclusions of the Russian analysis of samples taken from the scene of the incident with the use of chemical warfare agents in the suburb of Aleppo - Khan al-Asale, ”the RF Foreign Ministry said in a comment.
According to the ministry, the findings of the Russian specialists are as follows: “The used ammunition was not a regular ammunition of the Syrian army and was manufactured by artisanal by the type and parameters of unguided rocket shells produced in the north of Syria by the so-called Bashir Al-Nasr brigade; To explode ammunition, hexogen was used as a bursting charge, which is not used in standard chemical munitions. ”
In addition, “in the samples from the ammunition and in the soil samples, the substance of the nerve agent, sarin and diisopropylfluorophosphate, synthesized not in industrial conditions, was discovered, which was used by Western countries during the Second World War for chemical weapons purposes”.
"The results of the analysis of samples conducted at the request of the Syrian authorities by a Russian laboratory certified by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, 9 July were transferred to the UN Secretary-General in connection with the appeal of the Syrian authorities to the latter for an independent investigation of this episode," - said later in the comment.
The Russian report is a scientific and technical document of about 100 pages with tables and diagrams for spectral analysis of samples. “We expect that it will significantly help the investigation of this incident through the UN. Unfortunately, it still has not started in essence, ”the Foreign Ministry’s commentary says.
Also, the Russian Foreign Ministry recalls that the attention of those who seek to place responsibility for the events on the authorities of the SAR, has completely switched to the events in Eastern Gute. “There are attempts, in particular, to bring to oblivion the data presented by the official Damascus in the UN on cases of the destruction of the Syrian army 22, 24 and 25 August by the poisonous substances when materials, equipment and containers with traces of sarin are found in the suburbs of the Syrian capital. As is known, the condition of the injured servicemen was examined by members of a UN expert group headed by O. Selström. It is obvious that any objective investigation of the 21 August incident in Eastern Gut is impossible without taking into account these circumstances as well, ”the Russian Foreign Ministry comments in the comments.
“He lies, and he knows that he is lying. It is sad". The Russian President called the statements made in the US Congress by the Secretary of State John Kerry a lie. According to "Lenta.ru" With reference to Interfax, Putin made this statement on Wednesday at the Human Rights Council.
According to the president, to the congressman’s question about the presence of Al Qaeda in the conflict zone, D. Kerry replied that there are no representatives of this organization in Syria. “He lies, and he knows that he is lying. This is unfortunate, ”Putin said, explaining that the Front Al-Nusra group, an al-Qaeda unit, operates in Syria, and the US authorities know about this.
However, as follows from the transcript of the debate in Congress, posted in The Washington Post, the US Secretary of State did not deny the presence of the Front in Syria. A significant part of the discussion was devoted to whether the military operation in Syria will lead to the strengthening of Al-Qaida’s branches.
The State Department called the “absurd” accusation by Vladimir Putin. According to "Lenta.ru" With reference to Reuters, a spokeswoman for Jen Psaki told 5 this September.
According to Psaki, the Russian president’s comment was based on an “inaccurate quotation.” Psaki also noted that after Putin’s statement, Kerry did not “lose sleep”.
War is not against peace. As transmits RIA News", Barack Obama said he intends to take a military strike against Syria for security reasons for the entire international community, which does not go against his receiving the Nobel Peace Prize earlier.
“As president of the United States, I cannot avoid making such decisions,” Obama said at a press conference with Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, answering a journalist’s question about how he would explain the duality of the situation in which the Nobel Peace Prize winner ... is preparing to war with Syria.
“I try to promote diplomacy and a peaceful resolution of conflicts. But the question now concerns the entire international community, the entire civil society, not only me, not only politicians - how safe is it for us? We must resist actions that disturb our peace. ”
According to Mr. Obama, the international community has a chance to take steps that can eliminate the problem when peaceful people die from the use of toxic substances. “For me, making such decisions every day is a growing challenge. And I would rather talk about how we need a good education. But sometimes I, as the head of the American state, cannot avoid making a number of decisions that are necessary, but which the whole world condemns. ”
So let us add, Mr. Obama, recognizing that the whole world condemns his militaristic ideas, essentially stated that the war does not contradict the world and that the Nobel Prize in the aggressor’s pocket only confirms this fantastic thesis, extracted from the wells of American doublethink.
If you think about Obama's words, then it becomes clear that Obama is right, and the whole world is mistaken.
Bush Jr. probably thought about the same thing, to whom, according to him, God gave the sanction to the attack of Iraq.
The State Department cannot have the courage to talk to the Kremlin. The US State Department several times requested a telephone conversation with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on a Syrian theme, but the telephone conversation was subsequently canceled - without stating the reasons. This was announced by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Alexander Lukashevich, transmits "RT" with reference to Interfax.
“Since Saturday, 31 August, the US State Department has repeatedly requested a telephone conversation with Sergey Lavrov. Despite our constant confirmations, the American side every time informed about the impossibility to connect with the Secretary of State without stating the reasons, and the proposals to agree on a specific time remained unanswered, ”Lukashevich told reporters on Wednesday.
Letter from the Pope. Pope sent a letter to Vladimir Putin asking "to find a solution and prevent a bloody massacre in Syria." Reports about it "Reedus" with reference to Interfax.
In the message, the pontiff notes that "world leaders cannot remain inert."
Human rights activists refused to meet with Obama. As the RIA "FederalPress", Russian human rights activists Lyudmila Alekseeva, Lev Ponomarev and Svetlana Gannushkina decided not to meet with Barack Obama at the G20 summit.
Human rights activists did not like the fact that the meeting was constantly postponed, the Russian News Service reports.
Also in the note it is reported that an action in defense of Syria was held near the US Consulate building in St. Petersburg. As noted by Rosbalt, the event was held by activists of the patriotic movements “People’s Cathedral”, “Trade Union of Citizens of Russia” and “Party the Great Fatherland”. The participants accused the United States of organizing a provocation using chemical weapons near Damascus, called Obama "the number one terrorist" and compared him with Hitler.
On the verge of disaster. Russia sent a request to the International Atomic Energy Agency asking them to assess the nuclear danger in the event of a US military operation in Syria. This was stated by Russia's Permanent Representative to international organizations in Vienna, Vladimir Voronkov, reports "Sight" with reference to RIA "News".
“I sent an official request on the Syrian mini-reactor to the IAEA in the form of my letter addressed to the Director General Yukiya Amano. We ask the agency to immediately respond to the current situation and provide the participating States with an analysis of the risks associated with the alleged American strikes against the MNSR (miniature neutron source reactor) and other facilities in Syria, ”the diplomat said. Voronkov clarified that a similar letter was sent to the permanent representatives of the IAEA member countries in Vienna.
On Wednesday, the Russian Foreign Ministry said that airstrikes on Syria could lead to disastrous consequences - due to the threat of shells falling into nuclear facilities. We are talking about a miniature neutron source reactor located near Damascus. If the projectile hits the MNSR, contamination of the adjacent territories with highly enriched uranium and decay products may occur.
The situation in the Mediterranean Sea will affect the Russian Navy. 5 September Portal newsru.co.il With reference to France Press, three Russian ships passed through the Bosphorus Strait and the Dardanelles into the Mediterranean Sea. The agency’s photojournalist reported that the Priazovye medium reconnaissance ship and the Minsk and Novocherkassk large landing ships were advancing to the shores of Syria.
About sending two landing ships of the Black Sea fleet The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported on September 3 to the Mediterranean Sea. It was noted that "the Russian Navy continues the phased rotation of warships and vessels to ensure a permanent operational connection, performing the task of military presence in the Mediterranean."
Grouping of the Russian Navy is able to solve problems that suddenly arise off the coast of Syria, said Interfax on Wednesday at the General Staff of the Navy.
“Today we assess the composition of our forces in the Eastern Mediterranean as sufficient to solve the tasks set earlier. For comprehensive monitoring of the situation in the area there are reconnaissance and warships from the operational connection of the Navy. If necessary, they, together with the submarine forces, are already able to seriously influence the current military situation, ”the agency’s source said. He admitted that in the event of an escalation of the conflict, the Russian Navy in the region may have “sudden” tasks: “We are ready to solve sudden problems now. For this, in the near future, the composition of the group will be adjusted to match other scenarios. ”
Both brother and satan. As transmits "RT", advisers suggested B.H. Obama to stop allocating hundreds of millions of dollars for economic and military assistance to Egypt.
According to the Associated Press, Obama was recommended to at least reduce the sums, which now amount to $ 1,5 billion a year. Most of this money - $ 1,3 billion - is intended to support the Egyptian army.
Counselors proposed to stop providing assistance to the government. But this does not apply to non-profit organizations.
Such a political decision could hit the pocket of the military-industrial complex. According to Richard Dzhenale from the Pentagon’s Military Cooperation Office, the United States can paradoxically lose billions of dollars if the government refuses to help Egypt.
If assistance will be suspended, the U.S. defense contractors will lose huge sums.
The media writes that national security adviser Susan Rice discussed the issue with the arms manufacturing companies. In the event that aid to Egypt is reduced, the US government will compensate the losses of defense companies from the state budget.
Well, add on my own, everything is simple here: money that was previously sent to Egypt, will go straight into the pocket of the bosses of the US military-industrial complex. And the wolves are fed and the sheep are whole.
By the way, the Egyptian edition of "Al Wafd" drew a parallel between Obama, who decided to attack Syria, and the devil, reports The New York Daily News.
As noted by "RT", the Egyptian edition has accompanied the material with a picture, in which the American president is depicted with horns and a pentagram against the backdrop of the panorama of hell. At the same time, the publication put forward a version that Obama is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood movement.
Dangerous America, dangerous Europe. The head of the Civil Initiatives Committee, Alexei Kudrin, believes that the cause of the new round of the global financial crisis will be Europe and the USA. He said this in an interview "RT" on the eve of the G20 summit.
“The fundamental reasons ... remain the problems of the debt crisis in Europe, high US deficits, weak structural reforms, these are still basic problems,” the economist said.
Olympic sanctions. According to Utro.ru With reference to RBC, the International Olympic Committee will consider the issue of possible sanctions against the world champion in pole vaulting Elena Isinbayeva.
Two-time Olympic champion may lose the title of ambassador of the Youth Olympic Games because of statements about the law adopted in Russia banning the promotion of non-traditional sexual relations among minors.
“We will consider this question in due time,” IOC President Jacques Rogge replied to the question whether a Russian athlete can represent the Olympic movement, expressing support for the law criticized by human rights defenders.
They do not care". As Marina Baltacheva writes ("Sight"), referring to the APN, members of the headquarters of Alexei Navalny are going to leave Russia.
According to the bloggers, Natalya Gredina, the spouse of the head of the election headquarters Volkov, went to Luxembourg. About plans to move there for permanent residence Volkov told in June. In an interview, he admitted that in his homeland nothing holds him.

". According to reports, widespread Westminster, British parliamentarians in the last year (data from the summer of 2012 years for the same period this year) 300 thousand times visited pornographic sites, the average 820 once a day" - the newspaper writes.
Terrible figures "indicate that many members spend time on sites that have nothing to do with parliamentary activities, - said Matthew Sinclair, the representative of« TaxPayers Alliance », a British NGO that monitors the use of taxpayers' money by the British Parliament. - Internet is designed to be a useful tool for parliamentarians and their assistants, and British taxpayers expect from their elected representatives that they will work, but not to visit, to put it mildly naughty sites. "
"According to another recent study - continues correspondent - British parliamentarians spent a lot of time in« Facebook »(3 million visits per month.) At online stores sites, actively betting (83 thousand visits hippodrome site" the Betfair. ") And even illegally downloaded music."
Syria - America, Transnistria - Russia. The Internet has bypassed the new Romanian idea.
President Traian Basescu does not rule out compensation for Russia in the case of the overthrow of Assad and the loss of the naval base in Tartus could be Transnistria. Basescu said this in an interview with Adevarul, reports IA "REGNUM".
Romanian leader has suggested the following scenario: "The government of al-Assad falls, and to power the National Liberation Front ...

Well, after Kosovo, against which Russia categorically objected, it received compensation in Georgia. And what is now the easiest way to give in return? Transnistria.

"The dinner has just ended, during which the divergence of positions on Syria was confirmed," he wrote on Twitter.
Vladimir Putin said he did not rule out Moscow’s agreement on a military operation in Syria, if Damascus’s fault in the use of chemical weapons is proved, but only with the sanction of the UN Security Council: “I do not rule out this (Russian consent). But I want to draw your attention to one absolutely fundamental circumstance. In accordance with existing international law, only the Security Council of the United Nations can authorize the use of weapons against a sovereign state. Any other reasons, methods that would justify the use of force against an independent and sovereign state, are unacceptable, and they can only be qualified as aggression. ”
News from Congress. The draft resolution authorizing the use of force against the Syrian government is presented in the US House of Representatives. Its authors are Van Hollen (Democrat from Maryland) and Jerry Connolly (Democrat from Virginia). Told about it correspondent ITAR-TASS Andrey Surzhansky.

At the same time, the document excludes the possibility of "deploying the US armed forces on the territory of the SAR, except for cases when it may be necessary to conduct operations to rescue US military personnel." The operation in Syria is given sixty days since the adoption of the resolution.
A similar project is being considered in the senate.
Meanwhile, unofficial calculations of opponents and supporters of the strike against Syria are going on in the US Congress. It is reported that in the House of Representatives the majority of Republicans are opposed to the military resolution.
Not only congressmen are unhappy with the planned strike on Syria. Ordinary Americans also oppose the attack.
Americans against Obama. Most US citizens oppose a military operation in Syria. This is evidenced by the results of a survey conducted by the Center for Pugh, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Dmitry Kirsanov.
According to the survey, 48% of Americans do not support the idea of launching rocket-bombing attacks on Syria. For the use of military force against Syria stands only 29% of citizens. 23 percentages admit that they do not know the answer to the question of whether an operation should be carried out.
74% of respondents believe that a strike on Syria will lead to a surge in negative attitudes towards the United States and its allies in the region. 61% of respondents believe that the Syrian campaign will result in new long-term commitments.
In the effectiveness of bombing as a means of preventing the use of toxic substances in Syria, 33% of respondents believe. 51 percentage believes that a military operation against Syria will not allow to achieve the goals that are set for it.
Americans believe that Barack Obama did not really explain why the United States should conduct a military operation. 48% of respondents adhere to this point of view, and 32% of respondents expressed the opposite opinion.
The study was conducted by telephone among thousands of adult citizens of the United States.
The opposition will defend Syria along with the fighters of Assad. As Maria Kuptsova writes ("Russian newspaper"), one of the leaders of the Syrian opposition warned Washington that US military action would be a signal for retaliatory suicide attacks. About this in an interview with FNA (Iran), said the Secretary General of the opposition Syrian party "Al-Shabab" Mahir Mirhij.
He said: “Defense of the Motherland for us is above internal differences in the state. Although at the moment we are in opposition to the government, we believe that protecting the homeland from outside invasion is much more important. Therefore, we have created several battalions of suicide bombers that can conduct operations on American facilities in the Middle East. ”
He then warned the White House that even minor Western interventions would lead to unpredictable consequences and a prompt response from the Damascus armed forces.
Imad Tufaili ("Voice of Russia") interviewed Mirhija. The interviewee first explained that Syria was facing a threat to national security. Syrians against any military invasion. In addition, he noted, neither the Assad regime, nor the internal Syrian opposition used chemical weapons. According to experts, it was used by radical Islamists who penetrated from the territory of Turkey.
“I declare, on behalf of not only all the opposition parties of Syria, but also on behalf of all the Syrian people, that the United States cannot avoid punishment if they launch at least one missile to us. Now it is more important for us not who is in power, but how to protect the Motherland. We did not go over to the side of the government, but we stood up against the blow against our people and our army, which ensures our security. ”
At the same time, Mirhij noted that not all armed fighters will change their position. Moderate groups from the internal opposition can go to the government. These people are against the current government, but they will not fight against the Syrians. “When the destruction of the Syrian people is on the agenda, there is no time for disputes,” noted the interviewee. “It's crazy if the world believes that we, the Syrian people, are just waiting for an attack on our own.”
As for the Syrian Free Army, its head, waiting for intervention, showed itself in all its glory:
“And the head of the SSA revealed his true face. From his recent statements, it became clear who he is and whom he serves. The one who welcomes the military invasion of his country only out of revenge on the government is like a son who allowed his mother to be raped only out of revenge on his father. ”
Streamlined Ban Ki-moon. The UN Secretary General, regarding the preparation of a legislative base in Washington for attacking Syria, bypassing the UN Charter, thinks something strange. On Wednesday, Deputy Secretary General Secretary Farhan Haq told reporters: “This is explained by the principle of state sovereignty. These are internal legislative processes. He (the general secretary) understands this. ”
As noted by correspondent ITAR-TASS Oleg ZeleninIn recent months, Ban Ki-moon has expressed concern about what is happening in other countries, particularly in Egypt. The Secretary General called on the new authorities of the country to release the former head of state together with the leaders of the Muslim Brotherhood or to start legal proceedings on their cases. Interestingly, the events in Egypt did not overlap with the UN Charter, in contrast to the processes on the use of force against Syria, initiated by the US President in Congress. Regarding the latest statements by the American leadership, the UN Secretary General noted that “he took them into account”.
So, let us add, Syria has become the “internal” affair of the United States, and Ban Ki-moon took this “note”. Soon the UN will come to the point that any place on the planet will be declared the sovereignty zone of the United States. And the internal affairs of Syria, Iran or the DPRK will be considered the internal affairs of the United States.
Later, another statement came from the UN Secretary General.
Last night, he stated that the Syrian conflict has no military solution. According to "Lenta.ru" With reference to RIA Novosti, at the G20 summit in St. Petersburg, the head of the international organization stressed that new supplies of arms to any of the parties to the conflict are unacceptable. At the same time, Ban Ki-moon said that any response to the alleged chemical attack in Syria must be within the framework of the UN Charter.
The American intervention will be paid by the Arabs. As transmits correspondent RIA "Novosti" Alexey Bogdanovsky, the Arab monarchies offered to assume the costs of US force intervention in Syria. This was announced on Wednesday in Congress by John Kerry.
“With regard to the fact that the Arab countries offered to assume the cost and evaluate (her), the answer is yes, indeed. They offered. This proposal is being considered, ”said Kerry.
“In fact, some of them said that if the US is ready to do all this, as we did earlier in other countries, they will take these costs. This is how they are devoted to us. This is not in the plans, and no one talks about it, but they talk about it seriously, ”added the head of the State Department.
Saudi al-Faisal, Foreign Minister of Saudi Arabia, said: “Arab countries must respond to requests from the legitimate representatives of the Syrian people (opposition) for help from the international community in order to end the bloody massacre.”
At the same time, limited US use of military force in Syria will cost the US budget tens of millions of dollars, said Pentagon chief Chuck Hagel. Together with John Kerry and the Chairman of the Committee of the Chiefs of Staff of the US Armed Forces, General Martin Dempsey, he spoke at a hearing in the Foreign Affairs Committee of the House of Representatives of the Congress, reports correspondent ITAR-TASS Ivan Lebedev.
True, independent military experts believe that the cost of the operation in Syria will be calculated not in the tens, but in the hundreds of millions of dollars. By the most conservative estimates, its value will exceed 200 million dollars. One Tomahawk cruise missile costs the Pentagon about 1,5 million dollars.
One of the congressmen recalled that the topic of the costs of the operation in Syria had previously been addressed by General Dempsey, who warned of billions of dollars. Some measures proposed by a number of legislators, including “hawk” McCain, seem extremely costly to him. The introduction of a no-fly zone into Syria will require one-time expenses in the amount of 500 million dollars, and the preservation of its regime will require billions of dollars a month.
Pacifist Hagel got to the Russians. The tradition of blaming Russians in the USA will probably never die.
According to correspondent ITAR-TASS Ivan LebedevOn Wednesday, the US Department of Defense disavowed Chuck Hagel’s statement about Russia's supply of chemical weapons to Syria.
“Minister Hagel spoke of the well-known links between Syria and Russia in the field of conventional weapons,” said Pentagon press secretary George Little.
Speaking earlier at a hearing in the Foreign Affairs Committee of the US House of Representatives, Hagel answered a question from a lawmaker about Syrian arsenals. "It is no secret that the Assad regime has significant stocks of chemical weapons," the minister said. To the clarifying question of where these weapons came from Damascus, Hagel replied that the Syrians were “supplying Russia”. He added: “Others also supply them with these chemical weapons. Some amount they make themselves. "
The Pentagon later admitted that the statement was untrue. Little, who had to wriggle out, made up the following phrase: "At present, Russia supplies the Syrian regime with various military equipment and means of combat support, some of which can be modified or used for the purposes of the chemical weapons program."
By the way, the Russian reaction followed the statement of Hagel.
The head of the presidential administration of the Russian Federation, Sergei Ivanov, called the “bullshit” accusations against Russia of supplying weapons of mass destruction to Syria, reports RIA News".
“After I heard that at first the head of the Pentagon had declared that we were supplying chemical weapons to Syria, and then got better, no, not chemical weapons, but the means for their development and production — that is, excuse me, bullshit. And it is used simply in order for people who are not well-versed in this matter to throw in another idea, which is ultimately aimed at something we all understand perfectly, ”Ivanov told reporters.
He recalled that for a long time he headed the government commission on the non-proliferation of weapons of mass destruction, and therefore knows well that Russia did not make such supplies.
John Boehner will not meet with the Russians. Speaker of the House of Representatives of the US Congress, John Boehner, refused to meet with Russian colleagues who intended to discuss a vote on the use of force in Syria. Reports about it "Lenta.ru" with reference to CNN.
A spokesman for Bonera confirmed that the speaker rejected the request for a meeting, transmitted through Russian diplomats.
The Russian Embassy in Washington nevertheless reported that the visit of representatives of both chambers of the Federal Assembly would take place next week. Russian parliamentarians expressed a desire to meet with senators and members of the House of Representatives.
How other congressmen will respond to the request for a meeting is not known.
The Russian Foreign Ministry told about stuffing. Russian experts have issued a conclusion on incidents involving the use of chemical warfare agents in Khan al-Asal (a suburb of Aleppo), reports "RT" with reference to ITAR-TASS.
“We pay attention to the massive injection into the information space of various kinds of materials, called upon - even before the appearance of the results of the UN investigation - to place the responsibility for the possible use of chemical weapons in Syria on official Damascus. Thereby “preparing the ground” for the use of force against him. With this in mind, we consider it possible to share the main conclusions of the Russian analysis of samples taken from the scene of the incident with the use of chemical warfare agents in the suburb of Aleppo - Khan al-Asale, ”the RF Foreign Ministry said in a comment.
According to the ministry, the findings of the Russian specialists are as follows: “The used ammunition was not a regular ammunition of the Syrian army and was manufactured by artisanal by the type and parameters of unguided rocket shells produced in the north of Syria by the so-called Bashir Al-Nasr brigade; To explode ammunition, hexogen was used as a bursting charge, which is not used in standard chemical munitions. ”
In addition, “in the samples from the ammunition and in the soil samples, the substance of the nerve agent, sarin and diisopropylfluorophosphate, synthesized not in industrial conditions, was discovered, which was used by Western countries during the Second World War for chemical weapons purposes”.
"The results of the analysis of samples conducted at the request of the Syrian authorities by a Russian laboratory certified by the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons, 9 July were transferred to the UN Secretary-General in connection with the appeal of the Syrian authorities to the latter for an independent investigation of this episode," - said later in the comment.
The Russian report is a scientific and technical document of about 100 pages with tables and diagrams for spectral analysis of samples. “We expect that it will significantly help the investigation of this incident through the UN. Unfortunately, it still has not started in essence, ”the Foreign Ministry’s commentary says.
Also, the Russian Foreign Ministry recalls that the attention of those who seek to place responsibility for the events on the authorities of the SAR, has completely switched to the events in Eastern Gute. “There are attempts, in particular, to bring to oblivion the data presented by the official Damascus in the UN on cases of the destruction of the Syrian army 22, 24 and 25 August by the poisonous substances when materials, equipment and containers with traces of sarin are found in the suburbs of the Syrian capital. As is known, the condition of the injured servicemen was examined by members of a UN expert group headed by O. Selström. It is obvious that any objective investigation of the 21 August incident in Eastern Gut is impossible without taking into account these circumstances as well, ”the Russian Foreign Ministry comments in the comments.
“He lies, and he knows that he is lying. It is sad". The Russian President called the statements made in the US Congress by the Secretary of State John Kerry a lie. According to "Lenta.ru" With reference to Interfax, Putin made this statement on Wednesday at the Human Rights Council.
According to the president, to the congressman’s question about the presence of Al Qaeda in the conflict zone, D. Kerry replied that there are no representatives of this organization in Syria. “He lies, and he knows that he is lying. This is unfortunate, ”Putin said, explaining that the Front Al-Nusra group, an al-Qaeda unit, operates in Syria, and the US authorities know about this.
However, as follows from the transcript of the debate in Congress, posted in The Washington Post, the US Secretary of State did not deny the presence of the Front in Syria. A significant part of the discussion was devoted to whether the military operation in Syria will lead to the strengthening of Al-Qaida’s branches.
The State Department called the “absurd” accusation by Vladimir Putin. According to "Lenta.ru" With reference to Reuters, a spokeswoman for Jen Psaki told 5 this September.
According to Psaki, the Russian president’s comment was based on an “inaccurate quotation.” Psaki also noted that after Putin’s statement, Kerry did not “lose sleep”.
War is not against peace. As transmits RIA News", Barack Obama said he intends to take a military strike against Syria for security reasons for the entire international community, which does not go against his receiving the Nobel Peace Prize earlier.
“As president of the United States, I cannot avoid making such decisions,” Obama said at a press conference with Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, answering a journalist’s question about how he would explain the duality of the situation in which the Nobel Peace Prize winner ... is preparing to war with Syria.
“I try to promote diplomacy and a peaceful resolution of conflicts. But the question now concerns the entire international community, the entire civil society, not only me, not only politicians - how safe is it for us? We must resist actions that disturb our peace. ”
According to Mr. Obama, the international community has a chance to take steps that can eliminate the problem when peaceful people die from the use of toxic substances. “For me, making such decisions every day is a growing challenge. And I would rather talk about how we need a good education. But sometimes I, as the head of the American state, cannot avoid making a number of decisions that are necessary, but which the whole world condemns. ”
So let us add, Mr. Obama, recognizing that the whole world condemns his militaristic ideas, essentially stated that the war does not contradict the world and that the Nobel Prize in the aggressor’s pocket only confirms this fantastic thesis, extracted from the wells of American doublethink.
If you think about Obama's words, then it becomes clear that Obama is right, and the whole world is mistaken.
Bush Jr. probably thought about the same thing, to whom, according to him, God gave the sanction to the attack of Iraq.
The State Department cannot have the courage to talk to the Kremlin. The US State Department several times requested a telephone conversation with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov on a Syrian theme, but the telephone conversation was subsequently canceled - without stating the reasons. This was announced by the official representative of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation Alexander Lukashevich, transmits "RT" with reference to Interfax.
“Since Saturday, 31 August, the US State Department has repeatedly requested a telephone conversation with Sergey Lavrov. Despite our constant confirmations, the American side every time informed about the impossibility to connect with the Secretary of State without stating the reasons, and the proposals to agree on a specific time remained unanswered, ”Lukashevich told reporters on Wednesday.
Letter from the Pope. Pope sent a letter to Vladimir Putin asking "to find a solution and prevent a bloody massacre in Syria." Reports about it "Reedus" with reference to Interfax.
In the message, the pontiff notes that "world leaders cannot remain inert."
Human rights activists refused to meet with Obama. As the RIA "FederalPress", Russian human rights activists Lyudmila Alekseeva, Lev Ponomarev and Svetlana Gannushkina decided not to meet with Barack Obama at the G20 summit.
Human rights activists did not like the fact that the meeting was constantly postponed, the Russian News Service reports.
Also in the note it is reported that an action in defense of Syria was held near the US Consulate building in St. Petersburg. As noted by Rosbalt, the event was held by activists of the patriotic movements “People’s Cathedral”, “Trade Union of Citizens of Russia” and “Party the Great Fatherland”. The participants accused the United States of organizing a provocation using chemical weapons near Damascus, called Obama "the number one terrorist" and compared him with Hitler.
On the verge of disaster. Russia sent a request to the International Atomic Energy Agency asking them to assess the nuclear danger in the event of a US military operation in Syria. This was stated by Russia's Permanent Representative to international organizations in Vienna, Vladimir Voronkov, reports "Sight" with reference to RIA "News".
“I sent an official request on the Syrian mini-reactor to the IAEA in the form of my letter addressed to the Director General Yukiya Amano. We ask the agency to immediately respond to the current situation and provide the participating States with an analysis of the risks associated with the alleged American strikes against the MNSR (miniature neutron source reactor) and other facilities in Syria, ”the diplomat said. Voronkov clarified that a similar letter was sent to the permanent representatives of the IAEA member countries in Vienna.
On Wednesday, the Russian Foreign Ministry said that airstrikes on Syria could lead to disastrous consequences - due to the threat of shells falling into nuclear facilities. We are talking about a miniature neutron source reactor located near Damascus. If the projectile hits the MNSR, contamination of the adjacent territories with highly enriched uranium and decay products may occur.
The situation in the Mediterranean Sea will affect the Russian Navy. 5 September Portal newsru.co.il With reference to France Press, three Russian ships passed through the Bosphorus Strait and the Dardanelles into the Mediterranean Sea. The agency’s photojournalist reported that the Priazovye medium reconnaissance ship and the Minsk and Novocherkassk large landing ships were advancing to the shores of Syria.
About sending two landing ships of the Black Sea fleet The Ministry of Defense of the Russian Federation reported on September 3 to the Mediterranean Sea. It was noted that "the Russian Navy continues the phased rotation of warships and vessels to ensure a permanent operational connection, performing the task of military presence in the Mediterranean."
Grouping of the Russian Navy is able to solve problems that suddenly arise off the coast of Syria, said Interfax on Wednesday at the General Staff of the Navy.
“Today we assess the composition of our forces in the Eastern Mediterranean as sufficient to solve the tasks set earlier. For comprehensive monitoring of the situation in the area there are reconnaissance and warships from the operational connection of the Navy. If necessary, they, together with the submarine forces, are already able to seriously influence the current military situation, ”the agency’s source said. He admitted that in the event of an escalation of the conflict, the Russian Navy in the region may have “sudden” tasks: “We are ready to solve sudden problems now. For this, in the near future, the composition of the group will be adjusted to match other scenarios. ”
Both brother and satan. As transmits "RT", advisers suggested B.H. Obama to stop allocating hundreds of millions of dollars for economic and military assistance to Egypt.
According to the Associated Press, Obama was recommended to at least reduce the sums, which now amount to $ 1,5 billion a year. Most of this money - $ 1,3 billion - is intended to support the Egyptian army.
Counselors proposed to stop providing assistance to the government. But this does not apply to non-profit organizations.
Such a political decision could hit the pocket of the military-industrial complex. According to Richard Dzhenale from the Pentagon’s Military Cooperation Office, the United States can paradoxically lose billions of dollars if the government refuses to help Egypt.
If assistance will be suspended, the U.S. defense contractors will lose huge sums.
The media writes that national security adviser Susan Rice discussed the issue with the arms manufacturing companies. In the event that aid to Egypt is reduced, the US government will compensate the losses of defense companies from the state budget.
Well, add on my own, everything is simple here: money that was previously sent to Egypt, will go straight into the pocket of the bosses of the US military-industrial complex. And the wolves are fed and the sheep are whole.
By the way, the Egyptian edition of "Al Wafd" drew a parallel between Obama, who decided to attack Syria, and the devil, reports The New York Daily News.
As noted by "RT", the Egyptian edition has accompanied the material with a picture, in which the American president is depicted with horns and a pentagram against the backdrop of the panorama of hell. At the same time, the publication put forward a version that Obama is a member of the Muslim Brotherhood movement.
Dangerous America, dangerous Europe. The head of the Civil Initiatives Committee, Alexei Kudrin, believes that the cause of the new round of the global financial crisis will be Europe and the USA. He said this in an interview "RT" on the eve of the G20 summit.
“The fundamental reasons ... remain the problems of the debt crisis in Europe, high US deficits, weak structural reforms, these are still basic problems,” the economist said.
Olympic sanctions. According to Utro.ru With reference to RBC, the International Olympic Committee will consider the issue of possible sanctions against the world champion in pole vaulting Elena Isinbayeva.
Two-time Olympic champion may lose the title of ambassador of the Youth Olympic Games because of statements about the law adopted in Russia banning the promotion of non-traditional sexual relations among minors.
“We will consider this question in due time,” IOC President Jacques Rogge replied to the question whether a Russian athlete can represent the Olympic movement, expressing support for the law criticized by human rights defenders.
They do not care". As Marina Baltacheva writes ("Sight"), referring to the APN, members of the headquarters of Alexei Navalny are going to leave Russia.
According to the bloggers, Natalya Gredina, the spouse of the head of the election headquarters Volkov, went to Luxembourg. About plans to move there for permanent residence Volkov told in June. In an interview, he admitted that in his homeland nothing holds him.
“We’ll find in every yard Navalny and arrange power for the government,” Mr. Volkov explained to the Dozhd TV channel. “And after the elections, what will happen, I don't care - I'm leaving for Europe to do IT business.”

Porno parliamentarians of Her Majesty. According to Francesco Tortora ("Corriere della Sera"; source abbr. translation - "Inopressa"), only in the last year 300 thousands of visits by members of the British Parliament to questionable sites were recorded.
". According to reports, widespread Westminster, British parliamentarians in the last year (data from the summer of 2012 years for the same period this year) 300 thousand times visited pornographic sites, the average 820 once a day" - the newspaper writes.
Terrible figures "indicate that many members spend time on sites that have nothing to do with parliamentary activities, - said Matthew Sinclair, the representative of« TaxPayers Alliance », a British NGO that monitors the use of taxpayers' money by the British Parliament. - Internet is designed to be a useful tool for parliamentarians and their assistants, and British taxpayers expect from their elected representatives that they will work, but not to visit, to put it mildly naughty sites. "
"According to another recent study - continues correspondent - British parliamentarians spent a lot of time in« Facebook »(3 million visits per month.) At online stores sites, actively betting (83 thousand visits hippodrome site" the Betfair. ") And even illegally downloaded music."
Syria - America, Transnistria - Russia. The Internet has bypassed the new Romanian idea.
President Traian Basescu does not rule out compensation for Russia in the case of the overthrow of Assad and the loss of the naval base in Tartus could be Transnistria. Basescu said this in an interview with Adevarul, reports IA "REGNUM".
Romanian leader has suggested the following scenario: "The government of al-Assad falls, and to power the National Liberation Front ... What will happen to the Russian influence in the Middle East with the fall of the Assad .. How Russia will be compensated image losses? Well, after Kosovo, against which Russia categorically objected, it received compensation in Georgia. And what is now the easiest way to give in return? Transnistria.

Encryption NSA is not an obstacle? US National Security Agency, together with the British intelligence agencies are developing ways to bypass the cryptographic protection, writes the «New York Times» citing documents from Snowden.
As noted by RIA News", attempts to circumvent cryptographic protection in the network were undertaken in the framework of the top secret program “Bullrun”. The NSA has been doing this since 2000 of the year and has spent billions of dollars on it. To achieve the goals the agency used a supercomputer, but also lies unspoken agreement with technology companies: the last inserted into the so-called "back door" into their software. The NSA's most intense attention was the popular SSL security protocol.
