Iran’s Foreign Minister Javad Zarif was very content during a trip to Turkey on Friday. He said it was productive and smiled alongside his Turkish counterpart Mevlut Cavusoglu. He said it was a “wonderful” trip where he spoke with his “brother Cavusoglu.”
The trip signals the growing alliance that Turkey and Iran have in the region.
Zarif said: “As before, constructive engagement on bilateral and regional issues. Ultimate aim: Apply Iran and Turkey’s experience of 400 years of peace to our region. Together, anything is possible.”
Meanwhile, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan took Russia’s side in a growing spat with the US, slamming US President Joe Biden who is widely hated by Turkey’s ruling party. He claimed that Biden’s recent comments about Russian President Vladimir Putin were unacceptable and “not fitting of a president.”
This isn’t just because of the tone of Biden’s comments, in which Biden called Putin a “killer.” Turkey’s president and regime often lashes out at other countries and leaders, belittling and threatening them with insults.
The messaging from Ankara is that Russia and Turkey are growing together as allies and partners. They work together in Syria, Libya and the Caucasus; their goal is to supplant US influence and divide up many areas of the Middle East between themselves.

This does not bode well for Israel, Saudi Arabia or Egypt. Time to recognize Kurdistan....
The Wokemar Republic is about to leave serious power vacuums all over Mideast and Asia as “America’s Back” Xiden collapses faster than a dying star. US allies everywhere are scrambling to adjust their plans after last week’s various beatdowns of Team Xiden. I think Israel is smart enough to manage having lived thru the Obamanation and recognizing the inherent anti-semitism of the Modern Left now occupying America.
I wonder if it’s related to Ezekiel 38, 39?
Could be?
Israel military just warned of an overwhelming response should things get ignited.
I think ... if the US Economy collapses things will go hot. Everything so far that the Biden regime is doing will trigger the house of cards to fall. And Biblically we must and according to their Great Reset plans we must no longer be the epicenter of the world.
Russia and China began the so-called "peace mission" series of joint war games in 2005. They claim it's about combating terrorism, but only a fool would believe that, as the games are large scale and increasingly complex. Also in this alliance are Venezuela, Iran, North Korea, and a few other hostile hard left and islamo-nazi regimes.
Recall, Bill Clinton's treasonous ChinaGate scandal began in late 1996...
From the Sino-Russian Joint Statement of April 23, 1997:
"The two sides [China and Russia] shall, in the spirit of partnership, strive to promote the multipolarization of the world and the establishment of a new international order."

PART 5: Russia, China 'cooking something up'

"Joint war games are a logical outcome of the Sino-Russian Friendship and Cooperation Treaty signed in 2001, and reflect the shared worldview and growing economic ties between the two Eastern Hemisphere giants."
____________________________________________________
In foreign policy it’s critical to “know thine enemy.” So American policymakers should be aware that Russia and China are inching closer to identifying a common enemy - the United States.
The two would-be superpowers held unprecedented joint military exercises Aug. 18-25. Soothingly named “Peace Mission 2005,” the drills took place on the Shandong peninsula on the Yellow Sea, and included nearly 10,000 troops. Russian long-range bombers, the army, navy, air force, marine, airborne and logistics units from both countries were also involved.
Moscow and Beijing claim the maneuvers were aimed at combating terrorism, extremism and separatism (the last a veiled reference to Taiwan), but it’s clear they were an attempt to counter-balance American military might. ..."
Reporting from Moscow —
Neither Russia nor China has one inch of coastline on the Mediterranean Sea, making it an unlikely and provocative venue for their first joint naval war games.
The 10 days of maneuvers that got underway Monday will include live-fire exercises in the strategic sea connecting Europe, Africa and the Middle East. The point is lost on no one: A powerful new alliance of eastern giants is flexing its muscles in the very backyard of Western Europe — much as China has done on its own in the Pacific.
The war games follow Chinese President Xi Jinping’s visit to Moscow, where he headlined Victory Day celebrations and spent three days making billion-dollar deals with Russian President Vladimir Putin. ...”

The drums are already rolling for the upcoming Russian “Vostok” (east) wargames commencing on September 11. With its focal point in the Trans-Baikal region of eastern Siberia adjoining Chinese Manchuria and Mongolia, this is a nationwide Russian military and societal event.
Touted by Russian minister of defense Sergei Shoigu as “unprecedented in scale, both in terms of area of operations and numbers of military command structure, troops, and forces involved,” Russian state press is declaring that up to three hundred thousand troops and one thousand aircraft will be involved, with the majority from the Eastern and Central Military Districts.
This would be even larger than the near-legendary Zapad-81 maneuvers held in the western USSR during the depths of the Cold War. ...”
In WWII Germany, Japan and Italy where “allies.” But they seldom acted together. They never coordinated their moves. True, they more or less were on the same side. But they never trusted each other. I see the same type of alliance here.
Iran and Turkey both want to be the one and only leader of the Muslim world. Both have significant flaws that, if hit just right, will shatter them. Russia is in such a demographic and economic collapse that all we have to do is wait and it will fall on it’s own.
Unfortunately, the present US government has achieved a stellar level of incompetence. They can be counted on to do the exact right thing to cause world conflict. The problem with the world today is the level of interconnection will result in a domino effect. The Democrats wanted power. But I doubt they wanted to be the ones in charge when the whole economic structure of the world collapses. (Of course, they’ll blame Trump.)
No worries....the US Army has a better diversity program.
It has been a while since America was this weak and vulnerable. The difference now is that the weapons to bring America to its knees are more plentiful. Look at the last year as America was essentially overthrown by a coup and its people turned into helpless pathetic sheep. Our enemies are watching and sharpening the knives.
Well said. But truth won’t slow down the Putinistas.
The Qatar/GCC peace treaty, pushed by Trump, is likely dead, just weeks after it was implemented
Meanwhile, they are given full reign to push their pro-Russia BS here, clearly influencing quite a few legit, but ignorant and terribly naive members. Can't understand why this is allowed to happen...for years.
Why is Turkey still part of NATO?
No more US arms sales to Turkey. Not even spare parts.
Actually that peace treaty would have triggered an oil & natural gas war between Israel/SA and Russia with its allies. It still might.
It’s logical.
Arabia is going to be ruled. They have caused enough trouble in the last 100 years to last the next thousand.
Turks or Persians? Pick ‘em. Russia is along for the ride, a wise move. Russia wins either way.
What does this have to do with Madison’s Republic? Zero.
Well, NATO, effectively, does not exist. But, in a theoretical sense, Turkey is still part of NATO because of the stupidity that has brought NATO to its current state.
This is the 21st century. World War II is over. Western Europe is degenerate.
The forthcoming German-Russian alliance will back Turkey over Iran in the contest to rule Arabia.
The US? For us, it's all irrelevant. Our war is here.
And to think, Turkey still in NATO, go figure......../s

"RUSSIA COLLUSION" (written by myself, based on what I dug up and my own prior knowledge)
The 'Trump-Russia collusion' story was of course a hoax, a COVER, to hide what THEY (the notoriously traitorous Democrats) were doing, as the only evidence for Russia collusion involves THEM!
1) Newly unclassified docs reportedly state (surprise-surprise) Russians actually wanted HILLARY to win, not Trump! Obama CIA chief Brennan hid the evidence!!
2) Top Putin aids (Vladislav Surkov and Vyacheslav Trubnikov) provided disinformation (fake 'dirt') on Trump! (via RUSSIAN AGENT Igor Danchenko) for Clinton campaign/DNC paid-for Steele dossier!!
3) Obama-Biden DENIED desperately requested military assistance to Ukraine
...during the 2014 Russia invasion of Crimea!! At the time (2014) Trump had sharply and publicly (on NBC's Today Show, and elsewhere) criticized the Obama administraion, asserting that "Putin has eaten Obama's lunch" once again.
4) $3.5 MILLION (via Hunter Biden) from the wife of a former mayor of Moscow! (Elena Baturina) The former mayor of Moscow (Yuri Luzhkov) was a strong advocate for Russia invading and taking over Crimea. The $3.5 million reportedly passed hands within WEEKS of the Russia invasion of Crimea! (Feb-Mar 2014). Obama admin did nothing but provide them food rations and blankets! They had begged him for military equiptment.
5) Burisma owner (Mykola Zlochevsky) was/is a RUSSIA ALLY! Joe Biden's son worked for and brought in millions from Burisma. Joe is ON VIDEO BRAGGING about extorting the Ukrainians into firing the prosecutor who was investigating his son and the corrupt RUSSIA-ALLIED owner of the company. Zlochevsky was an official of the former 'puppet' regime that Putin had installed in the Ukraine via a rigged election. Viktor Yanukovych, the 'puppet' president of that regime's pro-American opponent in the election (Viktor Yushchenko) barely survived an assassination attempt by poisoning. His face was left badly pock-mocked for a long time afterward. Putin is widely believed to be responsible.
6) For 8 years the Obama-Biden-Clinton admin immensely HELPED the Russians, via Obama's promised and delivered "flexibility" on missile defense, the Russia-favoring New Start nuke treaty, the Putin-loving Iran deal (Iran and Syria are pawns of Russia in the oil/gas-rich Middle East), the Uranium-One deal, where Obama-Hillary allowed Russia to take ownership of 20% of our uranium production!
7) They (Obama-Biden) deliberately slashed OUR military to pieces. Fortunately, Trump has/had since brought it back times 10.
