THE WEST ATTACKS ASSAD…………..WAS IT A LOAN?

               It happened. The much talked about “strike”. So, now what? Will the Syrian government change it ways? Will it give in in to the Rebels/ Terrorist / in their Civil War? Who came out looking tougher? Putin or The Donald? Was the “Fix” in? Did the US and Russia come to an agreement on what would take place? Who was the biggest loser in the event? Will there be second and third order effects? Will the age old, Law of Unintended Consequences kick in?  Good grief, I sound like the idiots on the major news networks, only I don’t wear makeup. One question is completely in the realm of reality. Did all of this huffing and puffing really make any difference? Yep. It did and not in a good way.

Trump 1…..the Tsar 0:

After this latest round of the Bluff Game Championships, this seems to be the score and it’ a very dangerous score in deed. The US states, “we didn’t communicate with the Russians on the targets”! Now, that may be true, but if Bill Clinton taught me anything, it’s the meaning of individual words! It’s also an artform in the Middle East. “We”. Just who is “we”? Backdoor channels has been the mainstay of nations in conflict for thousands of years. Is the world really to believe the US didn’t communicate with the Russians prior to this strike? “We” is the US, but does that create the loophole for, “them”? Did some other, trusted agent take the message to the Russians? Could the US afford not to take this path? Striking hard targets is the easy approach and it also creates a great visual for the media. If the Syrian military moved their air assets, to include their anti air assets because they felt that was the objective of the pending attack, then you can bet the US, French and British anticipated that very move. The only real issue became making sure Russians were not occupying the building that would be struck. Now, here is an interesting point. If the Russian were told we were going to strike targets that were fixed and that supported the Syrian chemical weapons program with the objective of making sure they were no where near them, then why didn’t the Assad regime take advantage of that? Did the Russians not tell them? Remember my theory of who is really behind these chemical attacks. So why didn’t Assad’s government place civilians inside these pending target buildings? It’s an age old trick in that part of the world. Do you remember the Baby milk factory the US bombed in Iraq? If you have a location you know is going to be struck, then place civilians in and around that site and let the media do the rest. But, this didn’t happen? Why not? Instead, the story was, the Syrian anti-air units shot down dozens of incoming missiles……. Ya…..right….at least the West better hope that’s not true. The good news is, the US and it’s Allies have the telemetry and BDA. So do the Russians and the Chinese.  The targets were struck and no Russians were killed and the Russians didn’t ingage their mighty SA400 system. Now, there is another interest side  note. It would be hard to sell this wonder weapon if you utilized it for all the world to see and it didn’t work! That would make the Russian military sales department’s job much more difficult. Answer? Don’t use it and then say, “man if we would have used it NOTHING would have made it through”. Okay, back on topic here. So the question has two parts. One. Did the US get the message to Moscow? Was a “deal” once again, struck? Two. If the Russians did know, did they inform the Syrians? Oh, by the way, whose Chemical Weapon’s Program was it anyway? Wait!!!!! What???? Chemical Weapons Program? How can that possibly be? Why, the Obama Administration utilized diplomacy to insure the world, through his hard work with the Russians, the Syrians no longer had chemical weapons or a chemical weapons program…………..right? Insert the art of Clintoneze here, what did each word mean in that historic agreement? What seems even more remarkable, is the fact the Russians, the same Russians who emphatically stated the Assad had no chemical weapons program only sustained limited damage to the program? What program? They are not supposed to have a “program”! Even worse, the Assad regime comes out and states their program will continue. Thank you Mr. Redline Obama. You sure did kick that can down the road.
Okay, in the end, the guy who comes out looking like the one who backed down is Putin and that is not a stance Mr. Putin takes lightly. Did he agree to this outcome? I would find that hard to believe and that adds credence to the US’s statement that no preattack targeting discussions took place. Or…………or was this a typical Mafia Loan? “Here is what you want, I will come ask for what I want later”! You can rest assured of one thing. The effects of this event are far from over. Yes, CNN and MSNBC may be back on the Hooker trail, but the wheels are turning in Moscow and that loan is going to be paid by someone.
