>Breaking: Major rebel stronghold in Syria’s Hama province reconciles with government
BEIRUT, LEBANON (10:45 A.M.) – The rebel stronghold town of Qalaat al-Mudiq in northwest Hama province has joined the Russian-brokered Syrian reconciliation agreement reports the Russian Ministry of Defence (MoD).
In the same statement, the Russian MoD said that the town of At-Touni in Aleppo province has also joined the Syrian reconciliation agreement.
The latest peace broker has now brought the total number of reconciled settlements in Syria to 2,431 according to the Russian MoD.
Although major engagements near Qalaat al-Mudiq have not taken place for quite some time, government operations to take the stronghold in the past have produced bloody battles with defending militants inflicting considerable losses on Syrian Army ranks.
At the beginning of March, it appeared that the Syrian Army was mobilizing for an attack on Qalaat al-Mudiq or areas near to it.
>Islamists in E. Ghouta plan to stage false flag chemical attack – Damascus
Syria’s deputy foreign minister says militants plan a chemical attack in Eastern Ghouta on Sunday, will highlight the female victims and then pin the blame on Damascus. He accused the West of “only wanting to believe terrorists.” “We have received information that militants plan to stage an attack between the districts of Mesraba and Beit Sawa. Tahrir al-Sham terrorists plan to sacrifice several women for this purpose and launch a disinformation campaign. The performance is thought to be scheduled for March 11,” Deputy Foreign Minister, Faisal Mekdad, told journalists in Damascus.
Earlier this week, the White Helmets, a self-proclaimed civil defense group, accused the Syrian government of staging a chlorine attack that affected 30 residents of Eastern Ghouta, a militant-held suburb of Damascus wrecked by intense fighting in the past month. The government, which regards the White Helmets as a foreign-funded terrorist propaganda organization, has rejected these claims.
Mekdad also railed against a report by the UN Syria Commission, made public on Tuesday, which accused government forces of using chemical weapons in Eastern Ghouta in the six months prior to January 15.
“Organisation for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) specialists are appointed by the West and don’t want to know the truth,” said Mekdad. “Western countries were only interested in one thing – proving that the government used chemical weapons. This is despite us finding plenty of chemical weapon labs in formerly rebel-held areas. We have mentioned this plenty of times, but the West only wants to believe terrorists.”
Mekdad complained that, even when faced with hard evidence, experts refuse to attribute ownership of the weapons stocks to anti-government fighters and will often refuse to travel to areas where such evidence could be obtained, claiming it is “too dangerous.”

The international community should take responsibility and investigate the warning of the potential chemical attack before it’s too late, Mohammed Serkal, UN Coordinator for the group Salam for Democracy and Human Rights, told RT. He asserted that investigators must examine how the terrorists in East Ghouta obtained chemical agents, and who organized their logistics in the war-torn enclave near Damascus.
The international organizations, they should not have any excuse not to go into Syria and investigate this matter, because this is a serious issue and a serious crime,” Serkal told RT. “They have no excuse not to go in and find out who is using this.”
Serkal also noted that most of the previous cases involving chemical weapons use in Syria suspiciously coincided with Russia’s efforts to bring peace to the country, and warned of the danger of a false-flag use of chemical weapons in the “densely populated” Damascus suburb where “civilians are being used as human shields.”
“We noticed a kind of a pattern. Whenever there is a Human Rights Council meeting or Security Council meeting, prior to this we see these kinds of attacks,” Serkal noted. “I believe this kind of pattern that takes place is just to divert the current peace talk[s] led by Russia into resolving this matter, especially in [the] East Ghouta issue.”
With Russian air support, Syrian forces have, in recent days, made major advances into Eastern Ghouta, held by anti-government forces since 2012. The government has called on the competing Islamist groups to surrender, release civilians, and stop the shelling of the rest of Damascus, which, according to Russian observers, has resulted in the death of one civilian and nine casualties in the past 24 hours.
> ‘US won’t even sell us rifles’: Turkey’s FM explains purchase of Russian S-400 air-defense systems
Ankara’s decision to purchase Russian S-400 air-defense systems was prompted by the reluctance of its NATO allies, primarily the US, to sell advanced weaponry to Turkey, Foreign Minister Mevlut Cavusoglu has said. “We needed it urgently because we did not have an air defense system. We even had troubles with buying simple rifles from the US due to concerns of the Congress. We had to buy it from someone,” Cavusoglu told the Zeit newspaper, in an exclusive interview.
The S-400 Triumf is the most advanced Russian anti-aircraft system, designed to engage aerodynamic targets at a range of up to 400km and ballistic missiles up to 60km away. The launcher can use at least four interceptor missile types, suited to different targets. An S-400 division can engage up to 36 targets simultaneously.

Turkey, however, is ready to purchase the corresponding US systems, namely Patriot anti-air missiles, as well, if “the US government can guarantee that Congress will approve it,” the official stated. This will not mean that Turkey would scrap the agreement with Russia or not use the S-400 systems when they would be delivered, as the country seeks to strengthen military and technological cooperation with many partners simultaneously, including European countries.
“The deal has already been signed. But we will continue to buy products in the future. We hope for joint investment and technology transfer in the armaments sector,” Cavusoglu said. “But if we do not get anything from our allies, we have to buy it from somebody else.”
Cavusoglu’s remarks echoed a statement by Turkey’s President Recep Tayyip Erdogan, who vowed to stick to the S-400 deal with Russia, despite the threat of US sanctions. Washington could, potentially, slap Ankara with sanctions over the deal, under the Countering America’s Adversaries Through Sanctions Act (CAATSA), which was signed by the US President last August.
“You claimed that the contract with Russia was a mistake. You also said that you might introduce sanctions. We are not going to be accountable to you. We will proceed along the right way without any concessions for the sake of achieving our own goals,” Erdogan said earlier this week.
In the event of any US sanctions Turkey will “respond” in a fashion different from other countries, Cavusoglu stated, without providing any details of the possible retaliation. rt.com/news/420955-turkey-explains-s400-russia/

>250 officers from 8 units: UK diverts ‘enormous resources’ to probe Russian ex-spy’s poisoning Amid hysteria surrounding the mysterious poisoning of Sergei Skripal, Britain is dedicating a significant part of the country’s anti-terrorism capacity to look for Moscow’s hand in the former Russian double agent’s misfortune. The UK government has diverted significant resources, with eight out of Britain’s 11 anti-terrorism units currently helping to investigate the poisoning of former GRU agent Sergei Skripal, Home Secretary Amber Rudd revealed, at a time when a “severe” international terrorism threat hangs over Britain.
“I want to stress that they are proceeding with speed and professionalism. We are putting in enormous resources to ensure that they have all the support that they need to do that,” said Rudd, after chairing a meeting of Cobra, the UK’s emergencies committee. >The UK believes that Skripal, 66, and his daughter Yulia, 33, were exposed to a nerve agent. The two were found slumped on a bench outside a shopping center in Wiltshire on March 4. British police say that more than 20 people in total were injured in the alleged attack, which has been described by authorities as “attempted murder.” Both victims remain unconscious and in a life-threatening condition. rt.com/uk/420958-skripal-poisoning-investigation-rudd/

It's funny how Russia says that the rebels are planning a false flag, then when it happens they say >See? The fact that we said this would happen proves we are innocent When in fact, if Syria / Russia did use chemical weapons, they could have just said the same thing beforehand.
I think they are false flags, btw, I'm just saying that the Russian's logic is flawed.

American Military complex is a fucking joke.
>Sometime in the summer of 2006, John Ventimiglia, a plant foreman for Canada-based Armet Armored Vehicles, visited the company’s Ontario factory to inspect several Kestrel armored trucks that Armet was assembling for the U.S. military in Iraq.
>Ventimiglia was horrified by what he saw, according to court documents. The vehicles lacked the floor armor that the military had specified. Instead of special, blast-resistant mineplate, workers had installed fragile plywood planks. It was also apparent that workers were using sandbox-style play sand in the vehicles’ construction—although Ventimiglia wasn’t sure why.
>In 2011, the congressionally mandated Commission on Wartime Contracting in Iraq and Afghanistan reported that contractors had cheated the Pentagon out of $31 billion since 2001 (PDF). In one 2007 case, two South Carolina sisters—co-owners of a small parts-supplier—were found guilty of billing the Pentagon $20 million for hardware that was worth a fraction of that.
Does you're arresting an Iraqi? THIS IS AN OUTRAGE! That is soooo racist of you! Is this because I'm from Iraq? It is, isn't it? This is abuse! This is police abuse right here! I may be white but i identify as an transgender lizard from Iraq and you have no right to oppress me! I SHALL FILE THIS TO THE CHIEF OF POLICE!
Not really... you see ever since they started Ghouta operation right in the first they there were muh "rebel" media that screamed about some gas attack.. so it's better to just be on the safe side and I do believe they have people infiltrated in the ranks of the jihadists and reporting back when they are getting ready for such an event. What's the point to gas them now? They are wining and nothing can stop it.. there is no point.. Western media is close to show the finger when ever the rebels scream gas attack so this is nothing different then what MSM has been doing just that Russia does it now

Turkey complains about their allies not selling them equipment? Not strange since they have threatened the majority of the NATO member countries. Maybe they should start apologizing to those countries first, and foremost stop acting like a dictatorship jailing their opposition.

>Hundreds of smuggled migrants picked up between Libya & Italy Libya’s coast guard and an international charity ship have picked up hundreds of migrants who were traveling towards Italy with people smugglers, who have apparently been taking advantage of the calm seas. Coast guard vessels intercepted two migrant boats, one of which was an inflatable dinghy that had broken down and was carrying 125 people, Reuters reported, citing coast guard spokesman Ayoub Qassem. Another boat which had 112 people on board was turned back off Garabulli, east of Tripoli. Meanwhile, a boat carrying 110 people made it to a Doctors Without Borders (MSF) rescue ship which was preparing to deliver the migrants to Italy. The coast guard in Zuwara also said it foiled a departure in the middle of the night and arrested some migrants. However, others managed to escape with smugglers. Libya is the main departure point for migrants attempting to reach Europe. More than 600,000 have crossed the Mediterranean to Italy over the past four years. reuters.com/article/us-europe-migrants-libya/hundreds-of-migrants-picked-up-between-libya-and-italy-idUSKCN1GM0KS

i have the game and finished it for the first time, i then did another playthrough and got my lockpicking and pickpocketing high, and have Strength, agility and vitality to the max, aswell as warfare sword mace and axe, bow is good too, and alcoholism is fun, im playing a thief mainly except on combat missions, i really want a total blackness mod overhaul, so that when i get cought by the Hwite man i feel authentic.
