      If the United States succeeds in capturing Raqqa, then the separation of Syria will be inevitable. I'm afraid that we will not be able to prevent them from doing this at the moment.

        Well, this is if some vagrant tribe of Arabs-nomads with our guides did not accidentally undo the base of ji ah, until it turned around to its fullest and turned into a powerful group. It would be an indication and a will. In Libya, the Indians won’t even get to the ass of the American ambassador.)

        Everything goes to this. The classic American move: stick your snout into any mess under a good excuse, gain a foothold and grab your piece. More than one state with such "help" was divided into warring parties.

    The barmaleys will be paid a salary, and on the way back they will capture cultural values. The Americans, by and large, do not care - step-rob, retreat-rob. So they live ... request

      Not everything is so simple, there the formidable Arabs are self-destructing and here zielonka and Vaseline will be needed in tanks:

      A Saudi sheikh died while trying to rape a donkey. It is reported by "Beiruting".
      The animal hit the man in the face and chest, trying to protect himself from sexual abuse.
      It is reported that the sheikh was found the day after the incident.
      The police who found the donkey found the victim’s pants, which he removed and left next to his SUV before attempting to commit an act of bestiality.

    The Americans' desire to spoil Syria is indestructible. This is an attempt to split Syria into pieces and maintain chaos in the Middle East. I hope ours will not allow this.

    The United States is building 2 airbases in Syria, and is now sending its military experts ... Not far off is the announcement in Syria of some independent Kurdistan. Do not think that the United States just threw its military to the DAISH for slaughter, they are not so stupid as the patriots say.

    Friends, to be honest - I watched Obama's speech on Euronews today. To be honest to the end, I tried to watch. This is tough, I don't know of course, but it was either such a translation, or me (and I know English). But I, listening to both the Russian translation and Obama himself (English) - I did not understand anything at all (except - Russia is to blame). The translator (lady) translated with such difficulty, she was so tensely building connected sentences and phrases, I already felt sorry for her. You need to look for such enchanting nonsense. It's interesting to look at speechwriters, the impression is that they are completely idiots.
