World War 3, East Asian Front: Obama regime orders B-52 bombers into North Korean airspace! DPRK retaliates by cancelling U.S. envoy visit!

31 August 2013 (15:41 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Shawwal 1434/09 Shahrivar 1391/25 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

We intended to allow the visit of the special envoy of the U.S. Department of State proposed by the U.S. side and have a sincere discussion with him on the issue of the U.S. citizen serving a prison term in our country from a humanitarian viewpoint.
    As well known, the U.S. and south Korea staged large-scale joint military exercises against the DPRK in recent days but we exercised utmost self-restraint to prevent a vicious cycle of escalating tension at any cost.
    Notwithstanding, the U.S. perpetrated such a grave military provocation as infiltrating B-52H strategic bombers into the sky above the Korean Peninsula in succession, an unprecedented act, for a drill for nuclear bombing, far from positively responding to our tolerance and patience.
    As shown by the situation which reached the brink of a war in last April, the strategic bombers’ intrusion into the air over the Korean Peninsula is the most blatant nuclear blackmail against us and a military threat to us as it is the most striking manifestation of the offensive and aggressive nature of the joint military drills.
    The U.S. thus beclouded the hard-won atmosphere of humanitarian dialogue in a moment.
    Despite the fact that we clearly notified the U.S. side of this through the New York contact channel, it is something surprising that the U.S. is making irrelevant remarks that it was surprised by our action.-DPRK Foreign Ministry statement

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 20-21 August 2013: Idiotic new job for contractors; self monitor their taxpayer funding! U.S. conducting mass Israeli style home invasions!

Herat Province, Gulistan District, Kandahar-Heart HWY, a major battle leaves 83 people dead, both Afghan National Army (ANA) personnel and Mujahideen.   

Maidan Wardak Province, a U.S. Army Special Forces Master Sergeant from Virginia was killed when Mujahideen attacked his unit.  It was his 5th tour of duty.  He was assigned to 3rd Battalion, 3rd Special Forces Group (Airborne).  Mujahideen say the U.S. special ops forces were conducting Israeli style home invasions in Syed Abad District, that left one civilian dead another wounded.  Mujahideen attacked the U.S. special ops unit killing one and wounding another.  In a separate operation, Mujahideen claim they killed four U.S. Special Ops personnel, but some reports say they were Afghan National Police (ANP) that were killed.

In Zabul Province, reports that U.S. forces are conducting Israeli style home invasions in Shahjoi District. One person killed, one wounded.  In Qalat District,  someone started a fire inside a building on the U.S. Qalat Provincial Reconstruction Team Zabul (PRT-Zabul) base in Qalat city.  Witnesses say the fire lasted several hours, and destroyed sensitive equipment.  The fire on PRT-Zabul is claimed to be in retaliation for U.S. Israeli style home invasions conducted in Qalat city.  Witnesses say U.S. forces beat and tortured civilians.

Baghlan Province, thousands of Afghans protested continued U.S. led Israeli style home invasions, which has resulted in dozens of people kidnapped and personal property stolen.

Kandahar Province, Maiwand District, Kala Shamir region, an Israeli style home invasion resulted in five elders (aka White Beards) being beaten and kidnapped.

Logar Province, Pul-e-Alam District, a suicide bomber attacked local cops.  Two cops killed, three wounded.  Three civilians also killed and five wounded.   Mujahideen say they shot down a NATO/ISAF recon drone.  It burned after crashing.

Nangarhar Province, Khiwa District, a suicide bomber attacked local police.  Two cops killed, two wounded.

Helmand Province, a suicide bomber attacked the governor’s compound.  One person killed (besides the bomber), four wounded.

Bamyan Province, two U.S. employees of the Aga Khan Development Network were kidnapped.  Local police say they don’t know who did it, but have launched a rescue operation anyway.

Parwan Province, Syah Gird District, a fire destroyed 50 businesses.  Fire fighting officials blame it on a lack of electrical standards and the use of gas cylinders.  

The Afghan interior affairs ministry claims that 35 Mujahideen were killed, 11 wounded, nine captured in operations conducted by the National Directorate of Security (NDS, Afghanistan’s version of Homeland Security) in the provinces of Kunar, Laghman, Baghlan, Kandahar, Uruzgan, Maidan Wardak, Logar and Ghazni.

Mujahideen say more than 100 ANA and ANP forces switched sides and joined the resistance in the provinces of Paktika, Daikondi, Badghis, Nangarhar, Kandahar and Farah.

According to a report by The Guardian, as U.S./NATO pulls out of Afghanistan, those state department officials, who’re supposed to be monitoring how taxpayer funding is used by contractors, will also leave.  U.S. officials have decided the only way they can continue monitoring how contractors are spending tax dollars, wait for it, is to contract out the monitoring.  That’s right, soon the contractors will be monitoring how they spend their own taxpayer funding!

World War 3, African Front: Imperialist Japan expanding military intelligence gathering in Africa, preps for oil war with China!

30 August 2013 (16:05 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Shawwal 1434/08 Shahrivar 1391/24 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

“This engagement is very productive and meaningful for us. Sharing knowledge with our American counterparts helps us better prepare to assist our allies in maritime security.”-Nobuhiko Morita, JSDF

Japan Self Defense Forces’ Deployment Air Force has been training with the U.S. Navy Patrol Squadron 47 in Djibouti: “These events enhance our interoperability and work toward achieving mutual goals of maritime security, while building and strengthening our enduring relationships.”-Lieutenant Comander Mark Zematis, USN

On the continent of Africa, Japan is also sending out military spies to seven counties: Algeria, Djibouti, Ethiopia, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria and South Africa.  Japan already has Self Defense Force spies in Egypt and Sudan.

Officially this is for helping the U.S. in its BS War on Terror, but all these countries have oil, gold or other strategic natural resources, and China is active in those countries.

Japanese officials used the January killings of Japanese in Algeria as the excuse.  Those Japanese were working at a gas refinery.

According to a news report out of Uganda, the neo-imperialist leaders of Japan consider the resources, and potential market place of Africa, as the only way to pull Japan out of its decades long economic stagnation: “Growth begins and lies in Africa. Time to invest in this continent is now. Africa will be the growth center over the next couple of decades.”-Shinzo Abe, neo-imperialist Prime Minister of Japan

World War 3, East Asian Front: Imperialist Japan to increase military spending by tens of billions of USD, in preps for oil war with China!

30 August 2013 (15:38 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Shawwal 1434/08 Shahrivar 1391/24 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

Japan’s Defense Ministry is asking for an extra $49 billion USD!  The money will be used to create a new amphibious island hopping assault unit, as well as buy expensive Osprey VTOL transport aircraft from the United States.

Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV aka Drones) will also be purchased, and Japan will increase its anti-ballistic missile defense system.

Officially the Japanese defense ministry says the military increase is to defend against Korea.  Just two days ago it was revealed that the U.S. is allowing Japan to come up with unilateral invasion plans for North Korea!  Invading Korea could be a tactical move in the larger strategic goal of controlling South China Sea oil resources, which means preventing China from controlling those same resources.

World War 3, East Asian Front: Philippines to allow bigger U.S. military presence, in preps for oil war against China!

30 August 2013 (15:26 UTC-07 Tango)/23 Shawwal 1434/08 Shahrivar 1391/24 Geng-Shen (7th month) 4711

The United States and the Philippines are crafting a new military agreement.  Reports say it will allow an increase in U.S. military presence in Philippines, but U.S. officials claim it will not involve building more bases.

The main driver for the increased U.S. presence is the oil rich South China Sea, where China has a territorial dispute with the Philippines, as well as with other countries in the area.

Reports also revealed that this new military deal between U.S. and Philippines has been ongoing for the past two years.  It is part of the Obama regime’s military strategy that focuses on the Asia-Pacific region.

That plan includes recent deployment of spy ships to Singapore, and the basing of U.S. military personnel in Australia.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 18-19 August 2013: China halts & abandons oil production! PTSD guarantees re-deployment?

Zabul Province, Seyuri District, people of the Patla Khelo village report that U.S. led Afghan government forces assassinated their religious leader, with a shovel!

Helmand Province, Marja District, reports that a U.S./NATO airstrike killed at least 20 people.  It’s claimed all killed were Mujahideen.

Maidan Wardak Province, Mujahideen say they used a remote controlled bomb to destroy a Polish/NATO armored vehicle.

Logar Province, Mohammad Agha District, the Afghan Ministry of Defense reported three ANA soldiers killed.

Paktiya Province, Zurmat District, the Afghan Ministry of Defense reported two ANA personnel killed.

Nangarhar Province, Chaparhar District, the education administrator was assassinated.  Police do not know who did it.

Baghlan Province, Tala Wa Barfak District, several employees of the Ministry of Mines were kidnapped while driving to Bamiyan Province.  The kidnapping of government employees might be in retaliation for the kidnapping of 15 villagers by U.S. led forces in Poli Khomri District.

Amu Darya Basin, reports that China National Petroleum Corporation workers stopped oil production and abandoned the oil fields.  An interview with the Afghan Ministry of Mines said the halt is temporary and involves funding, as well as negotiations with Uzbekistan regarding the refining of the oil.

Despite U.S. claims to make Afghanistan a better place, 1.5 million grade school aged children are estimated to be forced to work in brick factories, coal mines and dozens of other places.  At least 60% of Afghans are in poverty, despite the billions of taxpayer dollars from other countries, and the booming U.S. supported drug trade.

Hypocritically, the Afghan government celebrated what it calls the 94th year of independence from the United Kingdom empire, despite the fact that the Red Coats currently occupy Afghanistan.  Even dip schtick U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry congratulated Afghanistan for its independence.

Seven U.S. Marines, two sailors, one soldier, and one airman were were punished for gay and straight sex adds on Craigslist.  Punishment could include loss of rank, extra duty, fines and restriction of privileges.  Six civilian employees were also punished.  The U.S. Uniform Code of Military Justice (UCMJ) forbids even heterosexual sex in combat zones!

The Washington Post revealed that the U.S. military is re-deploying personnel to combat zones who’ve been clinically diagnosed with post traumatic stress disorder.

“In such a scenario, Iran will do whatever it takes to keep Assad in power….Iran will send troops to keep him in power.…U.S. military bases wherever in the region [seen] as a legitimate target.“–Sadeq Zibakalam, Tehran University

In an interview with Chinese news media Iranian political sciences professor, Sadeq Zibakalam, said Iran would have no choice but to go on the offensive if the United States attacked Syria.

Iran’s Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, has already warned that an attack on Syria would result in a “catastrophe” for the region. 

Zibakalam said Iran will attack any U.S. base in the Middle East.  A United Kingdom news source said today that it had info that Iran is mobilizing 4-thousand troops for deployment into Syria!

On 28 August 2013, Iranian Brigadier General Masoud Jazayeri said Israel will also be targeted: “Fire of Syria war will burn Zionist regime.”

“…if the [UN] Security Council is unable to act, a coalition will form…..It will rely on the Arab League….She will have the support of the Europeans….France….She is ready. It will decide its position closely with its allies.”-Francois Hollande, Le Monde interview

French news media reporting that President Francois Hollande stated that the United Kingdom’s parliament rejection of military action will not stop France, or the United States, from launching an attack on Syria.

A couple of days ago Hollande called an emergency meeting of the French parliament for Wednesday, 04 September 2013.  The meeting will be about Syria, he implied military strikes could begin anytime.  He also made it clear that regime change was the goal of U.S. led attacks, saying they will “bring to a halt” the Syrian government.

Hollande added that he will be in deep consultations with the Barack Obama regime in the United States on Friday, 30 August 2013.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 16-17 August 2013: U.S. General says U.S. is a big fail! More corruption on the occupier’s side!

A retired U.S. Army Lieutenant General criticized how the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan has been handled: “By my count right now, we’ve had 11 overall U.S. commanders in Afghanistan during 12 years of war.  No university and no business could survive that kind of turnover and remain successful.  We’re doing this in the middle of a war where the enemy is actively trying to make you fail.”-David Barno

 In Kandahar Province, Kandahar airbase, a suicide bomber attacked a U.S./NATO military convoy.  22 NATO and Afghan military personnel wounded, three civilians wounded.  The suicide bomber was wearing a bomb vest.

In Herat Province, Karkh District, local police say nine construction workers, who were working on a nearby bridge project, were killed while staying at a police checkpoint.  One cop was killed, another wounded during the Mujahideen attack.  Mujahideen say everyone at the checkpoint was armed and shooting, including those the police say were construction workers.  One Mujahid was killed.  Mujahideen say they also captured weapons.

Mujahideen reported many attacks on police checkpoints across Afghanistan.

In Kabul Province, Kabul city, a magnetic ‘sticky’ bomb was placed on a parked vehicle.  The explosion did not kill or wound anybody, according to local police.

In Helmand Province, Marjah District, a family of eight drove over a landmine.  Five killed, three wounded.  The Stars and Stripes reports another waste of taxpayer money in the contractor operated Helmand Regional Distribution Center.  It is literally a privately run FOB (Forward Operating Base).  It was built and is operated by controversial Swiss based Supreme Group.  That contractor has come under fire before, accused of ripping off taxpayers.  The U.S. Congress supposedly is investigating the $4.2 billion USD mega-FOB over billing disputes.

According to the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR) military contractors now outnumber actual military personnel by two to one.

In Balkh Province, Mazar-e-Sharif city, a fire destroyed at least 200 businesses.  No official reason for the fire, but some witnesses say there was an explosion before the fire.

In Farah Province, Farah Rod District, a NATO supply convoy was ambushed on the Herat HWY.  Ten fueler trucks were torched, eight security guards killed, five wounded.  Three Mujahideen wounded, two killed.    Also, in the same district, a religious leader in Takht Manzar area was kidnapped by U.S./Afghan National Army personnel during a helicopter raid.  And a local government military commander was assassinated, along with his bodyguards.  It was done by a suicide bomber wearing a bomb vest.  Locals say it was about time the A-hole commander died: “Auz Khan was notorious in the area for his brutally and utter loyalty to foreign invaders and was the one that also martyred a 60 year old…”

NATO member Poland announced they are pulling out, or are they?  Polish officials said in October about 600 troops will return home, but that still leaves 1-thousand Polish troops incountry.

Documentary filmmakers in New Zealand have revealed the truth about Kiwi military operations in Afghanistan.  Officially New Zealand Defence Forces were supposed to be involved in reconstruction projects, but the journalists found they spent most of their time on military patrols.  Also, the New Zealand Special Air Service was supposed to be conducting training of Afghan troops, instead there is evidence they were actually conducting Israeli style home invasions.

A U.S. Marine from Florida admitted to local news media that he loved killing people in Afghanistan: “I like the way people look up to us as Marines. That enforces the way we carry ourselves. I like being a warrior. Very few people can do it and I’m proud to be one who can.”-Charles Legido

Legido bragged about the 70 firefights he was in.  To give a clue where the U.S. might be attacking next, Legido’s next deployment is to Yemen.
