Fallujah assault – a month later – Colonel Cassad

After almost a month after the assault of Fallujah (operation began on May 22 of this year http://colonelcassad.livejournal.com/276 2953.html
), advance units of the Iraqi army and security forces broke through to
the main administrative building of Fallujah and there hoisted the
Iraqi flag.
Some media in the heat Peremohy even have time to declare the capture
of Fallujah, when in fact, most of the city was still under the control
of the Caliphate, which has no intention to stop the resistance.
Premature posts of the Iraqi leadership still observed during the
assault Ramadi, which the news was taken in late December 2015, but the
fighting which continued until the beginning of spring.

The army last week persistently gnaw defense “black” in the residential area breaking into the city center.
Today it is possible to note clear progress in this direction, which
largely pays for their losses, which the Iraqis have almost tenfold
superiority over the Caliphate in the Fallujah region, it can afford
(the balance of power there is about 18-20 thousand. Vs. 1.5-2, 5
thous., not to mention the superiority in tanks, armored combat
vehicles, artillery, aircraft, etc.). The defense of “black” in residential neighborhoods gnaws conglomerate of various special forces, mostly US-trained and armed.
Various irregulars and militias are mainly used for tightening the ring
around the city, as these are often poorly prepared for street
fighting.
The city looked like before uniforms Razvalka after two assaults the
American occupation, and after a month of fighting, shelling and bombing
it continues to turn into a kind of local Stalingrad, which over the
past 11 years, stormed into the 4th time.

It should also be noted that there have been multiple reports that civilians in Fallujah Sunni religion, and even beaten пытают http://www.aljazeera.com/news/2016/06/ir aq-civilians-recall-days-hell-militia-16 0616060343081.html (по
link, description of torture and abuse), while passing through the area
of irregular activities Shia militia that exposes the nerve of
religious Shiite-Sunni conflict, in which the radicals play from both
sides.
As a result, people have long been forced to live under the yoke of the
Caliphate, which was publicly executed people for the slightest
infraction now are abused and on the other side, that emphasizes the
very barbaric level of warfare on both sides.
When these people “liberated from the tyranny of Saddam Hussein,” they
of course about the implications of such “freedom and democracy” is not
told. In general, civil Now is not particularly envy in Fallujah.

On the other hand, it is worth remembering that some of the “black”
trying to leave Fallujah, dressed in civilian clothes with the running
of the city as refugees.

Reducing the flow of information from Fallujah by the Caliphate
indicates growing difficulties in garrison town, a serious loss,
disruption of command and control elements, loss of command, all this is
a harbinger of what is in the near-term resistance, “black” will be
broken. It is very likely that in July, before the end of the month I think they still hold on.
Around July, when official nomination of Clinton as the candidate of
the Democratic Party will be held in the United States, there will try
to say about the success in the fight against the Caliphate, where
instead of Raqqa and Mosul will try to slip a victory at Fallujah and
possible Manbij.

Kremlin warns Washington against striking Assad’s forces

https://nworeport.me/2016/06/18/kremlin-warns-washington-against-striking-assads-forces/

ST. PETERSBURG, Russia – The Kremlin has strongly warned Washington against striking Syrian President Bashar Assad’s forces, saying it would fuel turmoil across the entire region.

President Vladimir Putin’s spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Friday that an attempt to topple Assad’s government “wouldn’t help a successful fight against terrorism and could plunge the region into total chaos.”

Peskov made the statement while asked to comment about an internal document in which dozens of U.S. State Department employees called for military action against Assad’s forces.

President Barack Obama called for regime change in Syria early on in the five-year conflict, but so far has only authorized strikes against the Islamic State group and other U.S.-designated terror groups in Syria.

Russia has conducted an air campaign in Syria since last September, helping Assad’s forces regain some ground.

Saudi Foreign Minister Meets Obama, Urges “More Aggressive Approach To Syria”

http://www.zerohedge.com/news/2016-06-17/saudi-foreign-minister-urges-release-classified-sept-11-pages-supports-more-aggressi

…….As we hinted, the US may be merely pandering to Saudi demands, something it has clearly done very well ever since the Sep 11 attacks which covered up Saudi involvement:

The cable also echoes the growing impatience among U.S. Gulf allies with the lack of military intervention targeted at the Damascus government to force Mr. Assad to resign and make way for a transitional government. Peace talks between Syria’s government and opposition collapsed in April over Mr. Assad’s fate, with the regime insisting he should stay in power, while the negotiated cease-fire continued to disintegrate. Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates have pressed the U.S. to provide more sophisticated weapons to rebels. But Washington has resisted.

In other words, if the US does fold and proceeds with military strikes, i.e. full blown invasion and war, on Assad, it will once again be Saudi Arabia that is running US foreign policy, and pushing the US nation into what may be a state of open war with Russia.

As we concluded “we can only hope the American people wake up and stop this travesty

before Saudi Arabia’s favorite presidential candidate is elected

president.”
