A bit tinfoil, but I've got a suspicion about all of this. Europe is a big customer for Russian gas piped through Ukraine. Russia invades Ukraine for some reason, which NATO doesn't like but can't do anything about because that's where they get all of their energy from. Coincidently, right around that time global gas prices fall through the floor, hurting Russia economically. And the centers of global finance are all controlled in western countries. Now Saudi Arabia is near enough to Europe that you could build a pipeline through Iraq and Syria into NATO member turkey and on in to Europe from there, cutting Russia out of the energy export business. As things seemed to be swinging towards no more Asad in Syria, Russia swoops in and stars bombing Asad's opposition, solidifying his hold on Syria, and russias hold on Europe as an energy customer. Its rather convenient that a new threat (ISIS) pops up right in the most strategically important area of the mid east. Probably a byproduct of these ongoing wars, but you can bet the superpowers won't let the opportunity go to waste.
To me it seems like a big chess game to cut Russia out of the loop.
- this is great, did you read this somewhere? Just asking because it makes sense, wonder if there are rumblings about it elsewhere._niko
- ultimately everyone's justification for this shit show which is "because ISIS" or "because Assad" just doesn't add up._niko
- no, it doesn't. It's a joke, really. First Obama goes on about wmd's, that doesn't fly, and now we have ISIS right where he/they wanted to invade.formed
- It's same as it always has been, money, oil, money, oil, power.formed
- It's almost funny, in a sad, evil and ironic way, that the talk is all about ridding the world of these elusive barbarians and none of the media talks about theformed
- pipelines and the real motivation. Half the population still believes Iraq was for wmd's and worth it.formed
- ^ That's the real failure, that media, even "serious" journalism takes government explanations at face value and never explores the geopolitical motives.yuekit
- hey monnom, check jame colbert's work, it will give you a more indepth look
https://www.corbettr…georgesIII - Russia invaded Ukraine ?
Shit !gonzalle - @_niko I don't think I read this specific scenario elsewhere, it's just connecting the dots from other stuff i've read.monNom
- Only thing your missing is russia has signed gas deals with china and others, they dont need europe.Hayoth
