MOSCOW, (SANA) – The Russian political analyst Vyacheslav Matuzov on Monday stressed that Russia won't give up its support for its stance towards the events in Syria, adding that the U.S.A. supports armament against the Syrian authorities.

Interviewed by Russia Today TV channel, Matuzov added that the U.S. and France are training armed groups on the Turkish territories and sending large amounts of money from Libya to provide financial support to these groups which is internationally unacceptable.

He said that Russia won't buckle under the pressures exerted by the U.S., the NATO or other Arab countries but rather it calls upon all sides in Syria to engage in dialogue.

Matuzov considered the Arab League's recent decision against Syria as lacking political solution, indicating to the media war launched against Syria.

He added that the western statements violate the international law and the UN charter which prevent a country from interfering in the affairs of other countries, stressing Russia's commitment and respect of international law.

MOSCOW: Russia will send a flotilla of warships led by its only aircraft carrier to its naval base in Syria for a port call next year amid tensions with the West over the Syrian crisis, a report said Monday.

The ships, headed by the Admiral Kuznetsov aircraft carrier, will dock at the little-utilised Russian base in the Syrian port of Tartus in spring 2012, the Izvestia daily said, quoting the Russian navy.

The Tartus base, a strategic asset for Moscow dating back to Soviet times, is rarely used by Russian vessels and currently no Russian ship is based there although civilian and military personnel are present.

A naval spokesman confirmed the plan to send the ships but insisted it had nothing to do with the deadly violence in Syria between forces loyal to President Bashar al-Assad and the opposition.

"The call of the Russian ships in Tartus should not be seen as a gesture towards what is going on in Syria," the spokesman told the paper, adding the Admiral Kuznetsov would also visit Beirut, Genoa and Cyprus.

"This was planned already in 2010 when there were no such events there. There has been active preparation and there is no need to cancel this," added the spokesman.

Russia and the West have become deeply split over the situation in Syria, with Moscow insisting that sanctions and pressure against the Assad regime is not the way to solve the crisis.

Izvestia said the Admiral Kuznetsov -- Russia's only operational aircraft carrier -- would head down from the Russian Far North in December, keeping west of Europe and heading into the Mediterranean through the Strait of Gibraltar. It would also carry around a dozen aircraft.

It said the Admiral Kuznetsov would not be able to dock in Tartus itself due to the size of the vessel but anchor outside and be supplied by the smaller ships accompanying it. The ship has visited Tartus before in 1995 and 2007.

BEIJING, Nov. 28 (Xinhua) -- China said on Monday that the Syrian crisis should be resolved under the framework of the Arab League (AL).

"It accords with the common interests of Syria, Arab countries and the international community," Foreign Ministry Spokesman Hong Lei said at a daily press briefing.

China hopes the AL and Syria can strengthen communication and coordination in order to properly resolve relevant issues in line with the fundamental interests of the Syrian people, Hong said.

He also called on the two sides to consider the peace and stability of the Middle East and prevent outside interference.

The AL decided Sunday to immediately impose sanctions on Syria as Damascus missed the deadline to allow an observer mission into the violence-hit country.

The sanctions included a travel ban on senior Syrian officials, the suspension of business with the Syrian Central Bank and the freezing of the Syrian government's funds in the Arab countries.

'Trio bent on Libya-style war in Syria'
http://www.presstv.ir/detail/212568.html
Mon Nov 28, 2011 9:49AM
By Peter Eyre (Middel East expert)

When will the citizens of planet Earth understand the “Geo Political Push” by the same old warmongers that took out Libya is at it yet again..? It is clear to anyone with an ounce of intelligence that the “Three Stooges” are again rattling their sabers at Syria with the same old story that have used so many times before.

It was not my intention to start this article off with some satirical reference but you know sometimes it is like “peeing into the wind during a gale” to get the message across...it becomes more and more frustrating to see you all watch these charades keep unfolding without even knowing the truth behind our extremely aggressive foreign policy.

Do you all care about your future, your job security and want to retain the things you have ever worked for? Want to retain your heavily mortgaged house and secure a healthy safe future for your children and your grandchildren...well folks I have to say you have a funny way of demonstrating your compassion towards your family and fellow humans!!

We keep sending in our armed forces to such places as the Balkans, Kuwait, Iraq, Afghanistan and more recently Libya but to what avail?……do you know why we are sending our gallant troops to the slaughter?-- do you really believe what your past Prime Minister have told you…..Tony Blair, Gordon Brown and now our current “War Criminal,” David Cameron?…….well I can assure you it has nothing to do with democracy or to launch a humanitarian campaign to save lives because I can assure you it is entirely the opposite……..this my friends is all about Imperialistic Greed and more importantly a “New World Order Master Plan” to take control of the EU, Middle East and the World beyond. Their plan has three main themes, which are:

· To take control of the worlds natural resources
· To take control of the markets for those resources
· To take control of the sea lanes and transit routes for those resources

It has always been their intention to take out any country that is not user friendly towards the US, UK, France and other NATO countries.

I know that you may think I am a bit of a nut case for thinking this way but hey you do not have to believe me….just simply listen to the words of General Clarke the ex-Supreme Commander of NATO in Europe……….he was told that the Pentagon had plans to take out 7 countries in a period of between 5-10 years……..I have the transcript of that brief in the Pentagon and if you do not believe me have a listen to his speech on the following link:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6oJUnG3Z6WI

You must also understand that one cannot keep pointing a finger at the United States when the strings for the New World Order are pulled from here in the City of London……the true “Axis of Evil.

You should spend some time sitting outside Chatham House in London and see our leaders and senior politicians come and go, because this is one of the hubs for the New World Order (in the administrative sense) with strong links to the Rothschild's and not forgetting the Freemasons!!

Our entire political structure also has a very strong Zionist lean towards satisfying the needs and security of Israel……..it is these Zionist that not only put our leaders and ministers in office but they also support them and their party financially.

What you do not understand is that it really does not matter who gets in office because all of them have been groomed to serve those that feed them!!

You have to understand that the World Economic Meltdown was no accident but a New World Order Plan and believe me the biggest ever “Economic Tsunami” is yet to hit the shores of the UK and Europe making the previous collapse look rather miniscule by comparison. Believe me the Euro and Europe, as we know it, is dead in the water but that is not saying that the New World Order will not resurrect a new EU that could be renamed the United States of Europe and your individuality will be gone forever…imagine not being able to say you are Scottish, Irish, Welsh or English….the time is fast approaching.

They have reduced our military to the scraping in the barrel, making us totally dependent on their army, called NATO……they have handed over the command of the SAS, SBS, Commandoes and other special forces to French control - God Forbid, and now they are trying to break up the cohesion between our United Kingdom…..but hey do not let me disturb your viewing of X Factor or whatever…..I know you have more important things to do!!

Before getting back to the long planned attack on Syria, Iran and more than likely Lebanon and Palestine one has to understand that “Massive Massive Fraud & Tax Evasion” that forms part of their plan. The “Arab Spring” and now the “Western Spring” are very much part of the end game….the New World Order can collapse any company or country at will.

The focus is for the New World Order to cause massive unrest in the areas that are of interest to their economic greed and then as each country fails (economically speaking) their front line World Bank and IMF move in and control that country…..this will eventually lead to a breakdown of sovereignty within the UK, Europe and other parts of the world.

This massive fraud, corruption and tax evasion is headed by the elite in the corporate sector, including the senior executives of the banks and last but not least to the very heart of politics, going right to the top in the Houses of Parliament and The House of Lords.

Want a couple of names to start you off? David Cameron our PM would be a good starting and another ex Leader of the Opposition, Lord Michael Howard….both being strong Zionists with a fist full of dollars belonging to someone else!!

An associate of mine, Gordon Bowden, has forensic evidence as to who are involved and I can assure you it involves billions of pounds each and every year……so that is what this “Spring in Winter” is all about…….to siphon vast sums of money (insider trading and asset striping) from companies, banks and countries and then turn this into a toxic debt for the ordinary citizens of the UK, Europe and the World to pick up the tab and pay the ultimate price in their severe “Austerity Measures” - “Tax Hike” - “Fuel Hike” and “General Cost of Living Hike.”

It is at this moment that ordinary people take to the streets around the world and demand change…….I emphasize change and not “Regime Change” which is what the New World Order want……..during this massive unrest the vultures from the New World Order move in and cause unrest with their Special Forces, Armed Mercenaries and Militia, CIA, MI5 and Mossad etc…….they even move their military advisers and training staff close to the border of the country they want to take out and in some case drop them behind enemy lines……as was discovered was the case in places like Pakistan, Yemen, Somalia, Sudan and more recently in Libya……they have for many many years had their operatives also in Iran…..waiting to pounce!!

This is how the New World Order is funded…..they operate from what we call “Boiler Rooms” that consist of hundreds of none existent companies, otherwise known as virtual or shell companies. You may be interested to know that our ex PM Tony Blair operates out of one of them - Arlington Associates and others at 22 Arlington Street, London which joins onto the Ritz Hotel in London…..want to know more boiler rooms where millions if not billions simply go missing - Lonhro on the First Floor of 25 Berkeley Square would be another good place to spy around……be careful as it belongs to Cadbury- Schweppes and you may tread on a few chocolate biscuits trying to get upstairs……..want more?…..what about ..55 Gower Street, London, Vintners Place, 68 Upper Thames Street, London, 180 Great Portland Street, London, 55 Baker Street, London, 788-790 Finchley Road, London, 44 Southampton Building, Chancery Lane, London and lets throw another one in outside of London……..44 Upper Belgrave Raod, Clifton, Bristol etc, etc.

So what is the current situation in Syria…….well for sure the French have their experts training militia close to the border in Turkey and also in Lebanon. The US and British continue to push hard for a regime change and sitting right there at the top of the list is Israel waiting to strike and at the same time utilise their vast storage of weapons that have been stockpiled by the United States (almost double the norm)……add to that the weapons that the US has specifically designed for an attack on Iran and Israel's own nuclear and depleted uranium weapons and one can see the scene is set.

So what are they waiting for……well my friends the same as usual a justification to move in i.e. a “False Flag Incident” such as happened in 9/11 and 7/7….they will also push the UN for permission to go in on humanitarian grounds which is one of the best cons you are likely to see……..you may not be aware but that they even did this before the Iraq War by entering Kurdistan (North Iraq) with humanitarian supplies but at the same time (very conveniently) set up permanent military “Forward Bases.”…I have much firsthand knowledge on this deliberate move made by the US and UK to cloud over the true reason….needless to say Turkey was there to enhance the operation as it is right now with the situation in Syria……talk about being “Two Faced.”

Before closing I have to share one moving experience for me over the weekend when the “Lancers” marched through the city to celebrate their return from Afghanistan…..I have always felt proud as to how we deal with British way of “Pomp & Circumstance” but this time I looked upon them as being pawns in an unjust war……I thought about how many came back in body bags, how many came back badly injured and mentally scared and how many had breathed in the millions of nano particles of radioactive depleted uranium from their own weapons and how many would succumb to the many illnesses and cancers that follow.

When I see our leaders and ministers at the Cenotaph in Whitehall, London laying their wreaths in tributes to the fallen, especially the fallen from the Balkans, Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan, “I feel intensely sick”……it reminds me of those evil words that came from the lips on yet another Zionist - Henry Kissinger when he stated:

“Military men are just dumb stupid animals to be used as pawns in foreign policy”

Let's just remind ourselves how many coalitions forces had died since the war started

2001/ 12 2002/70 2003/58 2004/60 2005/131 2006/191
2007/232 2008/295 2009/521 2010/711 and 2011/537 (to date)

That is what remains in my mind when I saw the Lancers march past yesterday…..yes they are our gallant troops, but do they know what they are fighting for?

Do they understand that this war is all about the greed of “Geo Politics” (Oil, Gas and Natural Resources) and also to protect “Yes Protect” the opium crops……that is what they are dying or being maimed for………the war is a lost cause and the Taliban still control Afghanistan…..so my question again is “To what avail.”

This certainly does not show any resemblance to a potential victory and just like Iraq the mission has failed and just like Iraq, Afghanistan will fall back into an insecure environment. However do not be fooled by this so called drawdown of troops from Iraq…. Obama and our own PM said all troop will be withdrawn…..what they did not tell you that they have replaced them with over 100,000 private security personnel who are armed to the teeth……..we are in Iraq and Afghanistan forever unless they kick us all out….that is after they have finished throwing their shoes at us!!!

Oh well that western democracy at its best I guess!!!

So to the dwellers of this wonderful country called the United Kingdom, maybe you will not feel so proud anymore when you realize you are being run by a pack of evil swindlers who do not give a toss about you and certainly have no regard for the lads that fight in distant lands…..they continue to fill their pockets and rob you to pay for their lavish lifestyle……but it does not stop there……just look over towards Bahrain where around 5,200 share the wealth of around US $4.2 million each…that amounts to a total of over US$20 Billion whilst the rest of the population are out on the street asking for change because they cannot feed their families or have lost their jobs….they get g arrested…..then the Royal Family have the audacity to bring in the Saudi army!!

Just to give you a snippet of the wealth of the Bahrain Royal Family…..I once took and inquiry to fly a dolphin and a seal to one of their residencies in Bahrain….not that is wealth for you!!!


Int'l inquiry commission accuses Syria of crimes against humanity

GENEVA, Nov. 28 (Xinhua) -- The Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Syria released its reports here on Monday, accusing the Syrian army and security force of crimes against humanity in handling the protests inside the country.

The Commission was established in line with a UN resolution to probe into alleged human rights violations in the country since March.

"The Commission has concluded based on its findings that members of the Syrian army and security force have committed crimes against humanity in their repression of largely civilian population in the context of peaceful protest movement," Paulo Sergio Pinheiro, member of the Commission, told a press conference held in Geneva.

He said the Commission had verified cases of murder, torture, rape, imprisonment or other severe deprivation of liberty occurred in different locations of Syria after conducting interviews with 223 victims of alleged human rights violations.

"The commission has also reached the conclusion that the wide-spread and systematic violations of human rights in Syria could not have happen without the consent of highest ranking state officials," Pinheiro said.

However, the conclusion is being doubted as a result of lacking proofs from concrete spot investigations, as the Commission has not been given access to visit Syria so far.

The Commission denied to specifying how the interviews with the victims of violations were carried out, citing the need to protect interviewees.

Press the transfer is close to the French intelligence services for George Malbrunot senior French officer working in Lebanon, saying that the services of Paris is not "ineffective" by fleeing to the Syrians in Turkey and the country's rice ", and in a report published today, Monday, 28/11/2011 in the newspaper" Le Figaro "Malbrunot said, quoting the French officer," It is not difficult to use force of arms smuggling networks between Lebanon and Syria to strengthen the terrorists who multiplied the Syrians cross-border operations against the Syrian security forces. "

The journalist in "Le Figaro", citing the French officer that the Jordanian intelligence expert operations breakthrough is not far from it in the south on the border with the Kingdom, and the French aid to the fleeing Syrians, according to what he said the French officer to Malbrunot, satellite images on the location of the Syrian army, which attacked him.

Aware of the site to criticism from informed sources in the Syrian opposition in touch with what is called the Syrian army stationed free in Turkey, to a great American officer visited Turkey two weeks ago and met Riad Al-Assaad army commander of the so-called free-Syrian who adopts the killings in Syria.

According to sources, the Syrian opposition, the American officer's visit to Turkey in order to see firsthand the following:

The real number of the group

The actual number of military deserters from the army of the Syrian Arab

Search with the Turkish side on how to coordinate with the Community

Consider the possibility of relying on them in any future war against Syria.

Sources say that the Syrian Riad Asaad considered close to the Muslim Brotherhood in Syria, and that's what made him favor and replace the welcome from the Turkish authorities that were not comfortable with his predecessor Hermosh Hussein, who refused to cooperate with the Muslim Brotherhood in the camps set up by Turkey to the Syrians.

The sources add that Ankara has adopted it, "the Free Syrian Army", as a military force to the way the PKK, to be a means of pressure on Syria in the campaign led by Turkey, Qatar and France and from behind by Washington to overthrow the regime in Syria. Also, this paper may be used by the armed group in the future if Turkey did not drop the pressure on Assad in Damascus to cooperate in the issue of the PKK, Turkish, Syrian and began to worry that Ankara According to sources, because of the cooperation between him and the Syrian security forces say the Turks. The elements of this party that is securing many of the Kurdish areas of Syria bordering Turkey, for the benefit of the regime in Damascus, which started to open up to the Kurds at a time fighting the Ankara military conflict bitter with its own Kurds in three decades without being able to a state-Atlantic to resolve this battle militarily or politically.

In this context, quoted criticism of sources, "the Syrian opposition" as saying that British foreign secretary William Hague asked the Syrian dissidents had met last week for the Free Syrian Army and many times the officers in charge of his leadership, as well as the number of soldiers who deserted, grouped under its banner, and is there Islamist fighters posing as dissident soldiers working with him.

The sources added that the British Foreign Secretary William Hague surprised the Syrian delegation when he told him that the number of soldiers who deserted, grouped under the banner of this army does not exceed 1,500 troops, while the information minister refers to five times that number, that is, between seven thousand and eight thousand soldiers, while the Word of the Syrian delegation exhibitions about the real number, the Turks have brought many of the Muslim Brotherhood and the majority of men who came to the camps of Turkish and Kdmohm on the basis of dissident soldiers making up the nucleus of the Free Syrian Army. This movement will not lead to the Turkish overthrow the regime in Syria, it is not seven thousand soldiers will fall ..

Three weeks ago, a French source generally well informed me that "Paris supports Syrian insurgents logistically by providing behind the scenes material and means of infrared communications." But, bound for the Middle East, veteran of the region do not ask me to "publish anything."

Shortly after arriving in Beirut, Saturday, Nov. 19, a French soldier stationed in Lebanon confirms to me that the French are not "inactive" with the Syrian deserters, refugees in Turkey and Wales cedar. And it is "very easy to use arms trafficking networks operating in Lebanon to strengthen the power of the rebels," that multiply the other side of the border operations against the Syrian security forces.

Specialists infiltration, Jordanian intelligence would not be outdone in the south of Syria, bordering the kingdom, said the officer, who also tells me that during the summer, "Paris tried in vain to enforce a plan aimed at keeping Bashar al-Assad (Syrian President, ed) but exclude the rest of the clan around him. "

Among the range of support that France can provide deserters is also satellite intelligence on the positions of the Syrian army who fight, said the military.

Monday night November 21, again from Beirut by telephone a friend in London briefs me on the discussion that the British Foreign Minister had with the representatives of the Syrian opposition gathered the same day on the banks of the Thames. "We question the willingness of Turkey to establish a buffer zone inside Syria," they said William Hague, who said "Bashar will not yield until he feels that the Russians support it."

Thursday evening at a dinner in Beirut, the Turkish ambassador in Lebanon, too, was "very reserved" on the possibility that his country is moving in Syrian territory to allow the Syrian army deserter to seek refuge in free a secure area.

The next day, a French diplomat said to me that "the diplomatic correspondence from the region," he suggests that "the Turks speak much, but act small." "They evoke sanctions for weeks, but they are still not passed to action, "he adds.

Climbing on the plane from Beirut, I read the article stating that France Duck with Syrian rebels in the company of British and Turks as part of a "limited intervention" in Syria.

Who is right? The first source and the French military? The Turkish and British denials are they real or simple screens to hide the reality of logistical support to opponents of Bashar al-Assad? One thing is certain: the support of Turkey to the Free Syrian Army is clear. A colleague who joined his boss on the phone Colonel Riad Assad was told the following sentence: "There is no problem we meet, but you must first go through my minder to the Department ( Turkish) Foreign Affairs, "that is to say the person who is responsible for contacts with the press.

VATICAN CITY: The Italian abbot of an ancient monastery in Syria who has criticized the bloody crackdown on protests and campaigned for peace talks said on Monday that he was being expelled from the country.

"It seems the authorities have decided it would be better if Father Paolo did not stay in Syria," Paolo Dall'Oglio, who heads the monastery of Deir Mar Musa some 90 kilometers (56 miles) north of Damascus, told Vatican radio.

Dall'Oglio, a Jesuit monk who has lived in Syria for 30 years and campaigned for inter-faith dialogue, said the expulsion order had not been formalized as the authorities wanted the Syriac Catholic bishop of Homs to make it official.

"I hope this decision can be stopped," he said.

In an interview with AFP in September, Dall'Oglio said: "The first step towards saving this country is real freedom of expression, press and opinion."

He called on all parties for "a long, patient, demanding dialogue" in order to avoid "a situation like in Iraq and Libya."

Dall'Oglio founded his community in 1992 in the ruins of the Mar Musa monastery. Christians and Muslims pray side by side at the monastery.
