U.S. Backed Terrorist Groups Attacking Each Other In Damascus, At Least 50 Dead
http://novorossia.today/u-s-backed-terrorist-groups-attacking-damascus-least-50-dead/
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, fighting has once again picked up in the area around the Syrian capital of Damascus, with at least 50 people killed today in fighting in the Eastern Ghouta region.
The fighting is between the Jaish al-Islam, a major faction within the Saudi-backed High Negotiations Committee (HNC) and the Faylaq al-Rahman, a union of two other rebel factions, which Jaish al-Islam attempted to absorb back in February.
Faylaq al-Rahman controls towns closer to Damascus in the region, and Jaish al-Islam accused them of rejecting an HNC initiative to end fighting in the area. The terms of the initiative were not made public, but almost certainly favored Jaish, a major ally of the Saudis. The Observatory reported that Jaish al-Islam had refused to withdraw from a town seized previously, and which they’d agreed to leave two weeks ago, and that they were the ones who launched the new offensive.
Ex-Nato deputy commander says there soon will be a war between NATO and Russia

In a book published on Wednesday, 2017 War With Russia, Shirreff argues that the events in Crimea have destroyed the post-cold-war settlement and set the stage for conflict, beginning next year.
According to the scenario described in the book, starting next year Russia would first occupy Ukraine to secure a land route to Crimea and then invade the three Baltic nations, all of which are members of NATO. The move, Shirreff argued, would be driven by the perception of NATO’s weakness and Russia’s opposition to what it sees as the alliance’s attempts to encircle it.
In the book he writes: “Be under no illusion whatsoever – Russian use of nuclear weapons is hardwired into Moscow’s military strategy."
He also says Nato is increasingly lacking the capability and military hardware to match Russia’s capabilties.
Background from Katehon: Brussels is hosting a NATO Military Committee meeting at the level of Chiefs of Defence. This body is the highest military authority of the alliance and is responsible for the development of the long-term adaptation of the alliance, enhancing its defense deterrence capabilities, as well as the implementation of the response plan.
At the moment, the main forces are directed against Russia, which may indicate the activation of the alliance's activities in the Baltic States and Poland. This is confirmed by the frequent military exercises and claims of transferring additional forces to the region.
Katehon experts comment: Anti-Russian vector of NATO is the main goal of the alliance. NATO pushes war on Russia and is getting ready for military invasion of Russia. However as always it is important for the globalist elite to get the public opinion ready. This is where the book by Alexander Richard Shirreff comes in to existence. The West forges the image of the enemy and blames Russia of aggression, this strategy is an old and obvious one.

Four UK Marines charged with torturing colleague

Royal Marine Ian Tennet, Lance Corporal Scott Simm, and James Taylor, a lance corporal in the Royal Marines Reserves and Former Marine Ryan Logan were charged with the ill-treatment of Carlo Nicholson (pictured below), a subordinate.
Tennet was sentenced to 11 months in jail while his two accomplices were given eight months each.
Logan (pictured below), however, was sentenced to 220 hours of unpaid community work for the "water-boarding incident"
where he placed material over Nicholson’s face and poured water over it.
Sentencing the marines at the Portsmouth Naval Base's court martial center was Judge Advocate Robert Hill, who said Nicholson was subjected to “40 minutes of depravity and naked humiliation” by members of the 45 Commando unit based at Royal Marine Condor in Arbroath, Scotland, in May 2014.
During the initiation ritual, which was witnessed by 80 drunken comrades, Nicholson was forced to drink from a paddling pool filled with urine and vomit, a practice he says has left him with “suicidal thoughts.” The initiation event, described in court as a "rite of passage", saw the victim and other newcomers to the unit being forced to run naked around the camp with milk and lemonade bottles taped to their arms. Nicholson was forced to lie down in the paddling pool containing urine and vomit while eggs were thrown at him. He also had to fight other marines while naked and covered in cooking oil.
The incident has left me feeling like I just want to be alone and I am pushing people away,” said Nicholson who is now suing the UK Ministry of Defense over his treatment.
“I feel like the water-boarding was the point where I snapped because it was a physical fear and I was panicked,” he added.
Nicholson has a daughter and has left the service ever since.
Eating spoons of chill, cinnamon and curry powder, along with dog food while on all fours were some of the other ordeals Nicholson was put through.

A startling claim that the west is on course for war with Russia has been delivered by the former deputy commander of Nato, the former British general Sir Alexander Richard Shirreff.
