OBAMA ADMITS CREATION OF ISIS BY WASHINGTON



During his speech in Tampa, Florida, outgoing US President Barack Obama has virtually admitted that the US has created the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group.

Outgoing US President Barack Obama delivered a speech about confrontation to international terrorism. Or, rather, about the confrontation as it is understood by the US itself. According to Obama, the US made significant progress in the fight against terrorism, which resulted in creation of a powerful coalition, consisted of more than 60 countries. Will just remind, there are, for example, one Luxembourgish serviceman, as well as the Belgium air power, which ‘misses’ and strikes the Syrian government army instead of terrorists, among members of the ‘powerful’ coalition.

Meanwhile, Obama virtually admitted that actions of the US (rather, the previous US administration) produced the Islamic State (IS) terrorist group. The outgoing US President said that mistakes of the country, made during the Iraqi campaign in 2003, allowed the IS to rise. At the same time, he immediately added that the US did not make such mistakes during his presidency.


“When ISIL made substantial gains first in Mosul and then in other parts of the country, then suddenly Iraqis reached out once again for help. And in shaping our response, we refused to repeat some of the mistakes of the 2003 invasion that have helped to give rise to the organization that became ISIL in the first place,” Obama said.

He also admitted that Washington provides assistance to various groups of militants. But, according to the US, they are ‘moderate’ rebels and oppositionists, but not militants.


“And then we took the fight to ISIL in both Iraq and Syria, not with American battalions but with local forces backed by our equipment and our advisors and, importantly, our Special Forces,” Obama said.

Advisors and the Special Forces – after such words we can confidently say that presence of US advisers and Special Forces in eastern Aleppo is the main reason of American hysteria in connection with advances of the Syrian government forces in the city. Apparently, US advisers, dressed as ‘moderate’ opposition, also are in the ‘boiler’ in the eastern neighborhoods of Aleppo.

Why States Still Use Barrel Bombs

Smoke ascends after a Syrian military helicopter allegedly dropped a barrel bomb over the city of Daraya on Jan. 31.(FADI DIRANI/AFP/Getty Images) Summary Barrel bombs are not especially effective weapons. They are often poorly constructed; they fail to detonate more often than other devices constructed for a similar purpose; and their lack of precision means they can have a disproportionate effect on civilian populations. However, combatants continue to use barrel bombs in conflicts, including in recent and ongoing conflicts in Africa and the Middle East, and they are ideally suited to the requirements of resource-poor states. Analysis Barrel bombs are improvised devices that contain explosive filling and shrapnel packed into a container, often in a cylindrical shape such as a barrel. The devices continue to be dropped on towns all over Syria . Indeed, there have been several documented cases of their use in Iraq over the past months, and residents of the city of Mosul, which was re...

Russia Looks East for New Oil Markets

Click to Enlarge In the final years of the Soviet Union, Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev began orienting his foreign policy toward Asia in response to a rising Japan. Putin has also piloted a much-touted pivot to Asia, coinciding with renewed U.S. interest in the area. A good expression of intent was Russia's hosting of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation summit in 2012 in Vladivostok, near Russia's borders with China and North Korea. Although its efforts in Asia have been limited by more direct interests in Russia's periphery and in Europe, Moscow recently has been able to look more to the east. Part of this renewed interest involves finding new export markets for Russian hydrocarbons. Russia's economy relies on energy exports, particularly crude oil and natural gas exported via pipeline to the West. However, Western Europe is diversifying its energy sources as new supplies come online out of a desire to reduce its dependence on Russian energy supplies . This has ...
