Russian Marine & Air Power Head For Syria Versus Western Intervention to Defend Russian Citizens, Says Moscow

DEBKAfile
 
Just one day after the G8 Summit ended in the failure of Western leaders to overcome Russian resistance to a resolution mandating President Bashar Assad’s ouster, Moscow announced Wednesday June 19, the dispatch to Syria of two warships carrying 600 Russian marines. They were coming, said the official statement, “to protect the Russian citizens there.” Russian Deputy Air Force Commander Maj.-Gen. Gradusov added that an air force umbrella would be provided the Russian expeditionary force if needed.

debkafile‘s military sources report that the pretext offered by Moscow for sending the force thinly disguised Russian President Vladimir Putin’s intent to flex Russian military muscle in response to the delivery of Western heavy arms to Syrian rebels – which debkafile first revealed Tuesday, June 18.

Putin was giving the West due warning that if they persisted in arming the rebels any further, a Russian troop landing in Syria would take place in the guise of an operation to evacuate endangered Russian nationals.

Some 20,000 Russians live in Syria. In former stages of the conflict, they were given the locations of assembly points should Moscow decide to lift them out of the war-torn country. The evacuation of Russian citizens would in itself dramatically denote the expansion of the Syrian conflict.

The Russian Interfax news agency identified the warships heading for Syrian shores as the Nikolai Filchenkov Large Landing Ship and the Vice Admiral Kulakov, a Udaloy 1 class destroyer, each carrying 300 marines. Aboard the former are also 20 tanks and 15 armored troop carriers or military trucks, while the Kulakov is designed mainly for anti-submarine warfare.

      The United State is in the wrong side of history by siding with TERRORIST and cannibals EATING the hearts out of SAA soldiers, beheading christians, shia, etc. and shooting children in front of thier parents because they were found guilty of blaspheming. President Barack Obama should immediately be arrested and indefinitely detained for providing support to Al-Qaeda terrorists in Syria.
      Section 1021(b)(2) of the NDAA law allows for the indefinite detention of U.S. citizens on “suspicion of providing substantial support” to groups engaged in hostilities against the U.S. such as al-Qaeda and the Taliban. AN INTERNATIONAL NUREMBERG TRIBUNAL should be formed and CHARGE Obama, McCAIN, Kerry, Graham, Pelosi, Boehner, B/H Clinton, the G8, the CFR, the Bilderberger Group, and all the INTERNATIONAL BANKERS, with CRIME AGAINST HUMANITY.

        What you fail to realize is all those people you listed are simply the talking heads/puppets for the truly guilty puppet-masters who never take the fall. They have no problem with you taking down these puppets, and they will just replace them with new puppets, give you some hope, then you will get worked over yet again. Until we get to the root, the hidden hand, the financiers we will just get more of the same. Look for the head of the snake to find those who are really engineering the mess we are in.

      I hope that Russia draws a line in the sand with Syria. It’s about FN time. Syria only needs a little more time to finish of these terrorists called the FSA.
