Washington: Striking policy contradictions in Tehran's positions on Syria and Iraq are not getting in the way of Iran's deepening commitment to Syria's beleaguered President Bashar al-Assad.

And if a series of recent reports are to be believed, Tehran's intelligence and military heavyweight, Major-General Qasim Suleimani, has emerged as a grand manipulator chipping away at American influence in the region – negotiating both Moscow's entry to the Syrian conflict and a sensitive new intelligence sharing deal between Tehran, Baghdad, Syria and Moscow.

Now social media pictures are emerging of Suleimani purportedly with Iraqi Shiite militiamen in Syria, as he coordinates a campaign to restore regime control in Aleppo, the country's biggest city, where government and rebel forces have been fighting since 2012.

When it was revealed last week, the Aleppo campaign was billed almost exclusively as an undertaking by the Assad regime, with military officials confirming that just "hundreds" of Iranian and Lebanese Hezbollah fighters would join the fight.

I wonder when it was that the US decided it had a right to interfere in Syria regime change. Oh I know when Assad said no Qatar pipeline through his country, and Assad is not bowing down to the Israel regime, that is just too bad . Syria has every right to have an alley or two than any other country, and the fact its Iran and Russia, is just too bad for the gulf states and Israel.

Hilary said on TV last night , she would make Syria a no fly zone, newsflash, the US does not own Syria.

Oh look, Ms. Skinhead had to pipe up here and, as usual, drag Israel into the thread.. Every opportunity she has, Ms. Skinhead will do this because she wants the viewers to hate the Israelis (meaning Jews) the same way she does. At the end of each week she reports to her local Bund leaders to tell him how deligent she was in dissing Israel. What would these little skinheads do if there were no forums to spew their hate day in and day out? She would have to go out painting swastikas on the fences of Jews, the same way as the do around the U.S.

And there is Miss Zionazi calling others skinheads. You couldn't make this shit up. Every week she reports to her Hasbara handlers and collects her shekels. If Miss ISIS Sally didn't have this forum to spout her racist venom, what else would she do 24/7.

Are you really that stupid that you think that most people reading these forums are not quick enough to see what Ms. Skinhead is all about. And, the propaganda duo of Haniya and Mr. Saleem don't realize the people can do a search of their screen name and see how busy they are night and day as if they are receiving a paycheck at the end of the month.
