The Ministry of Defense (MoD) this afternoon released an “urgent action report” to all of its commands stating that President Putin has just ordered 10 regiments of Strategic Missile Forces (SMF) troops, along with their TopolTopol-M and Yars mobile atomic missile systems, to their “highest alert” status over fears that the Obama regime is preparing to unleash a “false flag” chemical weapons strike in Syria in order to justify their invasion of this nation located in the Levant War Zone.
According to the MoD, prompting President Putin’s actions were intelligence reports received from the Levant War Zone overnight documenting that elite American chemical weapons troops belonging to the US Army’s Medical Research Institute of Chemical Defense (USAMRICD) and Edgewood Chemical Biological Center (ECBC) were landed overnight at the Rmeilan airfield in Syria’s northern province of Hasakah near the Turkish border.
Raising President Putin’s concerns even more about these US Army chemical weapons troops landing in Syria, this report continues, was that the US Air Force aircraft landing them at the Rmeilan airfield had made a previous stop in Kentucky in route to the Levant War Zone where the US has illegally stockpiled 524 tons of a spectrum of chemical weapons—including the deadly nerve agent Sarin.
Causing the Obama regime to even contemplate such a “grave escalation” of this conflict that could easily escalate into World War III, this report explains, was the total defeat of their “friendly terrorists” fighting in Syria this past week who succumbed to non-stop Aerospace Forces (Russian) bombings and lost control of the town of Sheikh Miskeen that is strategically located at a crossroads commanding a CIA southern supply route between the Jordanian border and the Syrian capital, Damascus.
In anticipating that their “friendly terrorists” would be utterly defeated at Sheikh Miskeen, this report continues, the Obama regimes Vice President, Joseph Biden, made an urgent flight to Turkey this past weekend where he warned that the US is ready to impose a military solution in Syria—a threat that is being backed up by their NATO ally Turkey’s massive military buildup along the Syrian border.
To what the Obama regimes true and ultimate goal is though, this report warns, is to use their planned massive invasion of Syria as “springboard” to ultimately destroy Russia—and as articulated by top Security Council (SC) member Nikolai Patrushev who this past week warned: “The United States’ leadership has set a goal of global dominance. They don’t need a strong Russia. On the contrary, they need to weaken our country as much as possible. To achieve this goal, the Russian Federation’s disintegration is not ruled out as well. This will open access to the richest resources for the United States, which believes that Russia possesses them undeservingly.”
Agreeing with Nikolai Patrushev’s grim assessment of what the Obama regime is actually doing, this report further notes, is the Professor Emeritus University of Arizona, Dr. Guy McPherson, who, likewise, this week warned that the United States is determined to lead Russia toward an escalation of tensions, putting the whole world at risk of a major military conflict.
With the US military, also, announcing this week that for the first time in their history they arechanging how they will report civilian casualties in Iraq and Syria to make it impossible for anyone to ever know how many there are, this report further warns, nearly all of the pieces for the Obama regime to unleash “total hell” on this region (and the world) are now in place.
The one exception to this though, this report concludes, is President Obama’s actual legal authority to unleash World War III upon us all—but which the US Senate has taken a small step toward by making a new law authorizing the use of American military force against the Islamic State, but whose leaders said yesterday they will not actually pass legislation unless President Obama agrees not to limit where US troops can fight, how long the battle will last or whether ground troops can be used—in other words, Russia is up next.

Scotland would use a British exit of the European Union to break away from the United Kingdom, former Prime Minister Tony Blair has warned.
Speaking to French radio station Europe 1, Blair said he was “very worried” about the result of the upcoming referendum.
“There’s a little-mentioned aspect, which is that, in my opinion, if the UK votes to leave Europe, Scotland will vote to leave the UK,” he said, speaking in French.
Blair added that the EU provides “strategic and economic” benefits, as well as being a buffer to volatile emerging markets such as India and China. He said he hopes that Cameron would secure “his demands” for a reformed relationship with the EU.
The former New Labour PM also said the mission to renegotiate Britain’s relationship with the bloc was an “opportunity for Europe to make the necessary reforms.”
He was asked whether he believed voters would choose to stay. He replied: “I hope yes, I think yes.”
His words echoed a warning from the leader of the Scottish National Party (SNP), Nicola Sturgeon, who has previously said that her party would call for a second independence referendum if Britain voted to leave the EU.
Last year, Sturgeon said that a second referendum would be “unstoppable,” and that Brexit would effectively amount to Cameron “breaching the terms of last year’s vote.” In the run-up to the Scottish independence referendum, Cameron said that the only way to guarantee EU membership for Scotland was to vote against independence.
Investment bank Credit Suisse also warned Monday that a British vote to leave the EU could trigger a recession, as well as prompting a fall in house prices and knocking up to 2 percent off GDP.
Analysts also said they predicted the UK would vote to stay, but warned that a vote to leave would bring about “drastic and long-lasting” consequences.
“If the UK votes to leave the EU, it is likely to entail an immediate and simultaneous economic and financial shock for the UK. We can expect a drop in business investment, hiring and confidence. A sudden stop of capital flowing into the UK could make the large current account deficit difficult to sustain and lead to a sharp fall in sterling,” wrote Sonali Punhani and Neville Hill, fixed-income research analysts at the bank.

Republican presidential candidates Donald Trump (L) and Sen. Ted Cruz of Texas speak during a commercial break in the Fox Business Network Republican presidential debate at the North Charleston Coliseum and Performing Arts Center on January 14, 2016.
US Republican presidential front-runner Donald Trump reiterated his criticism of rival Senator Ted Cruz’s birthplace, saying the Canadian-born candidate should drop out of the 2016 race for the White House.
“It’s time for Ted Cruz to either settle his problem with the FACT that he was born in Canada and was a citizen of Canada, or get out of race,” the billionaire businessman tweeted on Monday.
In recent weeks, Trump has raised questions about Cruz’s eligibility to become president of the United States because of his birthplace.
Cruz, who has surged as Trump’s closest competitor in the contest for the Republican nomination, was born in Canada to a Cuban father and a mother who is a US citizen.
At a campaign event in Iowa over the weekend, Trump floated the idea of filing a lawsuit against Cruz over the issue.
“I’ve said Ted has a lot of problems — number one, Canada. He could run for the Prime Minister of Canada and I wouldn’t even complain because he was born in Canada,” he said.
“The Democrats are going to sue if he ever got the nomination within two days. There have already been two lawsuits filed, but they don’t have standing. I have standing to sue,” Trump told his supporters.
Trump previously said that Cruz’s Canadian birthplace could be “very precarious” for the Republican Party.
“Republicans are going to have to ask themselves the question: ‘Do we want a candidate who could be tied up in court for two years?’ That’d be a big problem,” Trump told the Washington Post earlier this month.
Trump continues to lead his rivals nationally, and has gained ground in Iowa, besting Senator Ted Cruz, 34 to 23 percent in the Hawkeye State, according to a new poll by Fox News.

On Sunday, we learned that despite the best efforts of German cartoonists, some refugees are still having a hard time understanding how to behave at public pools.
European authorities, increasingly desperate to salvage the “yes we can” refugee narrative in the face of mounting evidence that it may be well nigh impossible to integrate two vastly divergent cultures, have scrambled to put together integration guides and design brochures and pamphlets aimed at “explaining” Western European societal norms to the millions of asylum seekers that now call the bloc home.
Most of the integration guides make some reference to the fact that in polite culture, it’s not appropriate to grope women even if they appear, by Mid-East standards anyway, to be scantily clad. On New Year’s Eve, women reported being sexual assaulted by dozens of “Arab” men in Germany, Finland, and Austria among other countries and since then, officials have focused increasingly on what certainly appears to be a kind of “groping” epidemic perpetrated by asylum seekers.
But it’s not just the “groping.” If Bild is to be believed, some refugees recently engaged in what one might call some “shenanigans” at the Johannisbad baths in Zwickau. Here are the rather disconcerting details from a clumsy (yet exceedingly amusing) Google translation of the original German:
“According bathrooms GmbH have masturbated refugees when visiting swimming baths in pools and emptied their bowels in the water. They are women in sauna harassed and have tried to storm the ladies’ locker!”
Needless to say, that won’t do anything to calm Europeans’ frayed nerves.
Far-right Dutch politician Geert Wilders even went so far as to suggest that the “Islamic testosterone bombs” be “locked up” in asylum centers for the sake of “the women.”
On Monday, we get the latest bit of migrant news out of Europe, this time from Sweden where “gangs” of Moroccan migrant children have apparently “taken over” the Stockholm train station where, to let The Daily Mail tell it, they are “stealing, groping” and beating women. Here’s the story:
Swedish police warns that Stockholm’s main train station has become unsafe after being ‘taken over’ by dozens of Moroccan street children.
The all-male migrant teen gangs are spreading terror in the centre of the Swedish capital, stealing, groping girls and assaulting security guards, according to Stockholm police.
Members of the gangs, some as young as nine, roam central Stockholm day and night, refusing help provided by the Swedish authorities.
Sweden has seen a dramatic increase in the number of Moroccan under-18s who apply for asylum without a parent or guardian in the past four years, with many later running away from the housing provided to live on the streets in the capital.
Stockholm police estimate that at least 200 Moroccan street children move in the area around the main train station in the centre of the capital, sleeping rough, and living off criminal activity.
‘These guys are a huge problem for us. They steal stuff everywhere and assault security guards at the central station,’ one police officer told SVT.
‘They grope girls between their legs, and slap them in the face when they protest. All police officers are aware of this.
So apparently, dozens of nine-year-olds and preteenagers have effectively taken control of a major transportation hub and transformed it into their own personal crime den where security guards are assaulted on site, women are “groped”, and girls are “slapped in the face” for trying to protect themselves.
“The gangs are made up of orphans who have grown up on the streets of Casablanca and Tanger in Morocco, where authorities estimate there are around 800,000 homeless ‘street children,” the Mail continues, adding that “Swedish migration authorities first reported and increase in Moroccan unaccompanied minors applying for asylum in 2012, when 145 arrived, a number which more than doubled in 2013.”
Some 500 Moroccan children applied for asylum but around a fifth of those who were placed with foster families or put in group homes ran away and “disappeared off the radar.”
It would appear that these missing children are now dug in at the train station where they have brought authorities “to their knees.”
So far, police have attempted to solve the problem by arresting the children for “public drunkenness” in order to “get them off the streets for a while.” Clearly, that isn’t a viable long-term strategy and so, Interior Minister Anders Ygeman now says Sweden is set to round them all up Trump style and ship them back to Morocco, or as Ygeman puts it, “we are in agreement that this is a joint problem for us to solve, and that we both need to find ways of identifying these people and achieve repatriation.”
Of course there’s another solution. Sweden could just post the following cartoons at the train station:

GOP front-runner Donald Trump says he will skip the next Republican debate as the Iowa caucuses approach.
“I probably won’t be doing the debate. I’m going to have something else in Iowa,” said the billionaire former reality TV star at a news conference in a high school workout room in Marshalltown, Iowa, on Tuesday. “Let’s see how much money Fox makes without me in the debate.”
Trump campaign manager Corey Lewandowski confirmed to the Washington Post later that he would “definitely not” be there.
The Fox News debate is scheduled to be held in Des Moines, Iowa, on Thursday night.
Since a debate held last August, Trump has been engaged in a public spat with Fox News after Megyn Kelly launched a vicious feminist attack on Trump trying to paint him as a “sexist misogynist” during the first GOP debate. In the debate she viciously began her so-called question with a declaration, saying:
KELLY: Mr. Trump, one of the things people love about you is you speak your mind and you don’t use a politician’s filter. However, that is not without its downsides, in particular, when it comes to women. You’ve called women you don’t like fat pigs, dogs, slobs, and disgusting animals.
TRUMP: Only Rosie O’Donnell.
KELLY: No, it wasn’t.
TRUMP: Thank you.
KELLY: For the record, it was well beyond Rosie O’Donnell.
TRUMP: Yes, I’m sure it was.
KELLY: Your Twitter account has several disparaging comments about women’s looks. You once told a contestant on Celebrity Apprentice it would be a pretty picture to see her on her knees. Does that sound to you like the temperament of a man we should elect as president, and how will you answer the charge from Hillary Clinton, who was likely to be the Democratic nominee, that you are part of the war on women?
TRUMP: I think the big problem this country has is being politically correct.
Trump is typically foulmouthed and against political correctness he called men the same thing. For example, he called Jeb Bush “stupid, incompetent, useless, worthless, looser” numerous times, yet Megyn filtered out his insults on men and tried to portray him as a women-hater.
Megyn’s attacks mirrors those of Hillary Clinton which is also trying to use the same snake attacks, trying to divide people and create an imaginary men vs women war, portraying men as oppressors and women as victims.
“He’s definitely not participating in the Fox News debate,” Lewandowski said. “His word is his bond.”
Instead of partaking at the debate, Trump will be in Iowa to raise money for the country’s war veterans.
Trump did not want Megyn Kelly, a Fox News journalist, to be present at the debate, a request turned down by the TV channel.
The rejection made him say “bye bye” to the GOP debate, too many of which, he believes, have been held.
His campaign manager, however, said the decision was related to the Fox News debate, adding Trump would welcome other ones.
Earlier in the day, Fox News Channel President Roger Ailes said, “Megyn Kelly is an excellent journalist, and the entire network stands behind her. She will absolutely be on the debate stage on Thursday night.”

Czech President Milos Zeman predicted a “tsunami” of refugees entering his country, who he believes should not be eligible for asylum.
The 1951 Refugee Convention allows only political persecution, not the fact of living in a war zone, to be used as grounds for asylum, Czech President Milos Zeman said on Tuesday.
According to Zeman, the simplest solution to the refugee crisis would be the deportation of economic migrants and those refugees who show hatred toward others. Zeman was criticized by the head of the Czech Republic’s leading refugee aid agency.
“We all feel compassion for the refugees, but facts have confirmed that 80 percent of them are healthy men who should fight for the freedom of their country. And if they come from countries with no hostilities, they should work for their country, not leave it,” Zeman said, according to the Czech News Agency (CTK).
According to the head of the Czech Organization for Aid to Refugees Martin Rozumek, the convention extends refugee status on at least four other categories, and that European Union law adds other conditions.
“According to European law, it is enough if people have fled from an armed conflict, they need not have anything to do with politics,” Rozumek told CTK.
Spread of Refugees
Zeman weighed in on concern to the spread of Europe’s refugee crisis, following restrictions in Germany’s Bavaria and Austria’s suspension of the Schengen zone.
“I am convinced that next year, the migrant wave will spill over to our country. Restrictive measures of Bavaria and Austria will be the trigger,” Zeman said.
Comparing the refugee crisis to a tsunami, Zeman compared his critics’ words to Czech tourists, who perished during the 2004 Boxing Day Tsunami in Southeast Asia.
“Some of them have accused me of spreading hatred, fear and panic. These politicians remind me of the bathing Czech tourists on the Thai beaches at time when a small wave appeared on the horizon. In fact, it is called tsunami,” Zeman said, according to CTK.
