Somehow we doubt that Putin just folded...

Sky Sources: Russia to call for urgent meeting of five permanent members of UN Security Council

— Sky News Newsdesk (@SkyNewsBreak) August 29, 2013

Some more from BBG:

Hopefully Putin doesn't whip out incontrovertible proof the chemical gas attack was linked to Al Qaeda, Qatar... and the US of course.

I believe O's Nobel Peace Prize came with a coupon for one free war.

It's already cashed in; Libya.

I can’t help but think this equates to Putin pulling Obama into an empty classroom, locking the door, and giving him some major wall-to-wall counseling over how much he has made a total effed-up mess of ... well.. everything.

At least Romney isn’t president. Then we might have to worry he’d insult Russia by implying they are still a threat to our interests!

Boy, I don’t know about you, but that sure is a weight off my shoulders! Cuz they sure are all “buddy buddy” these days ain’t they?!

(again, do I need a sarc tag?)

“I don’t believe Syria would be stupid enough to use chemical weapons. I believe the muslim brotherhood IS.”

Not saying Syria used them, but assuming they did for a minute, someone conducted several smaller attacks leading up to the larger attack, and Obama did nothing. It’s possible presidential weakness lead them to believe they could get away with using chemical weapons - a miscalculation and diplomatic failure for Obama.

The strategic gain for Assad is that he could quickly eliminate an enemy stronghold responsible for launching attacks against his government. Securing your lines of supply and your rear areas is a strategic goal.

Just some thoughts.

Where’d they get it? Where’d they get the agents?

I have to believe there are markers added to this stuff that allows you to trace it, preventing EXACTLY the kind of false flag stuff that is going on now.

Were I designing this sort of weaponry, every batch would be chemically coded so that I could tell almost instantly, perhaps with some sort of quick spectral analysis, EXACTLY what happened to the batch after it left the building.

IBM can write its logo in atoms. Another way of coding this stuff that’s even more effective is by using a nanodevice that burps a low power signal when triggered by a certain wavelength of light.

You get close enough to enough of the agent you can get it to burp out enough of the signal for it to be detected once you get within X feet of it.

Now, you get a serious breach of national secrets from any one of our agencies, and these markers could work against you if you can string enough of the material out to create a falsified chain of custody, as it were, that would be as convincing as the satellite photos we hit the Russians with at the UN in 1962.

That Putin would allow Assad to use the agent AND manage to have the West blamed on it would be an expectation I’d have of a guy with Putin’s experience.

Explains why nations that understand the obvious ramifications of letting anyone, for any reason, deploy such weapons with impunity would suddenly decide that any answer to such use is now beyond consideration.

I predict Obama goes into Lame Duck Clinton mode, as Clinton did in the final two years of his admin, in the very near future. Jarrett may limit his scope to domestic stuff, but Putin’s agenda may obviate all that.

Oh, and were I Iran, I’d figure out a way to hit us hard enough to destabilize us internally. As it is, we keep having the luxury of fighting all this out on somebody else’s soil, while Americans literally remain fat, dumb, and reasonably happy.

I’m pretty sure they now have the means to do it somehow, and that Jarret’s involvement with the Admin guarantees that Iran is going to be the PERFECT, and protected proxy for any action against the US.

Imagine JFK finding out it was Ireland that launched a nuke against the US. Talk about a moment of hesitation.

You’ve got an admin that for the last six years has positioned itself against the interests of the Saudis (and the Israelis), which is to say for the interests of the Russians, only to have the Russians play him at the last minute by ensuring Iran succeeds not just in destroying Israel, but also, potentially, the US.

As we speak, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, and ISRAEL have formed the ‘Axis of Reason’ in order to prop up Egypt and REVERSE OUT a coup staged by the US against Saudi interests.

Let’s not forget that the objective of the Soviets in the Afghanistan adventure was Saudi Arabia, not Afghanistan, prior to their collapse.

Between Iran and Saudi Arabia, and now fracking, the Saudis have a great deal to worry about, and no friends left outside Western Europe, which is to say some pretty weak friends.

Here’s what will happen. Putin will present a “peaceful” compromise, his puppets will go along, Assad will truck his chem WMD to Hezbollah and blue helmets will guard the whole operation under their noses. Regimes/Baathists stay in power, euros think they actually did something, iran’s power increases, Obama looks like Bush and foolish. Satan smiles. Have a nice day.

I’m rooting for the Russians and Syrians against the United States and United Kingdom

Isn't this what used to be known as traitorous?

Any other reports of this meeting? It is awfully quiet and nothing is being reported that I have found.

From this artcle, and Twitter, it looks like the Russians just threw down a gauntlet.

China AND Russia walked out on the meeting...

It really is kind of a joke that France is still a permanent security council member. Surely India or even Brazil has more business being on there.

Why Are American Conservatives Praising Pretender Putin? Because they have temporary amnesia. They forgot that Putin and his KGB Orthodox Church are fake Christians for very long time and that Putin and his KGB bosses always take side with enemies of America. Russian KGB killed over 30 million Christians and now the same criminals pretending that they are a “Good Christians” by preaching that free people in the in the West are bad Christians. None of these Communist criminals ever went to jail for their crimes in Russia. What a joke. Now KGB dictator Putin brainwashing Russians and the World that Free West is bad and that Russian KGB dictatorship is good. Looks like that corrupted Communist Abortionist Obama made American Conservatives afraid of freedom, so now they look up to another perverted wolf in sheep’s clothing - KGB Dictator Putin. Maybe is time that American Conservatives start praising only one true leader: Son of God Jesus Christ of Nazareth.

There are those in Iran that would not care if they ceased to exist if they thought they could at the same time cause us to cease to exist at the same time.

A while back Putin admitted their defense was weaker than ours, but if need be, he would not hesitate to nuke us. I think he would.
