Moscow Blames United States For Shelling Of Russian Embassy In Damascus
Kyiv Post ^ | October 4, 2016 | By Meduza

Posted on 10/04/2016 7:45:59 AM PDT by Strategy

Russia's Foreign Ministry has declared that the shelling of the Russian Embassy in Damascus, Syria was the result of "those who, like the US and some of its allies, continue to provoke bloody conflict in Syria [and] flirt with militants and extremists of various types," read a statement posted on the Foreign Ministry website on October 4.

The building of Russia's diplomatic mission in Syria, said the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, fell under attack on October 3. The fire came from the suburbs of Jobar, which is controlled by terrorist groups Jabhat Fateh al-Sham (formerly known as al-Nusra) and Failak ar-Rahman.

Potentially a great Democrat campaign ad?

Our Terrorist in Chief will do anything to declare martial law and start a war to stay in office if Hellary isn’t a sure win.

Wonderful. Nothing like poking the Bear with a sharp stick. Let’s just hope that they don’t find any unexploded mortar rounds in the rubble that only a US-made mortar would use. The last thing we need with barely a month until the election is for Russia to decide they need to bitch-slap the Obama administration.

Given that the State Dept. spokesman threatened terrorist attacks against Russia just a couple of days ago, only a complete fool would imagine this was anything other than an official U.S. government action.

America supports of the killing of Syrian Christians and America supported the bombing of the Russian Embassy. 40 million Russians are engaged in a 4 day civil defense drill for nuclear war Oct 4 - 7. What kind of writing on the wall does it take to get the average American to understand the Russians are on a Christian Crusade to stop the post-christian west. They are getting up the courage for a first strike.

While pundits and politicians debate the merits of a chubby Miss Universe, we move slowly closer to a war with Russia and nobody notices.

Remember when Bill Clinton put a Cruise Missile in the Chinese embassy in Serbia? Then wanted US forces to remove the Russians from the airport? Liberals are insane.

Oops....

But still no acknowledgement or apology.

Gives the Russians a perfect excuse to intervene in US elections.

Diplomacy and warfare by other means.

Kerry suspends communication with Russia.
Russia doing a 40 million person bunker response “exercise” now until Oct 7th.
Russia blames the US for embassy bombing.

Oh.. This will end well.

Savage was saying something along these lines last week. Provoke a war with Russia as a gambit to stay in power and further solidify that power.

Things are happening fast:
1) We cut diplomatic ties
2) They cut uranium arms control treaty
3) We have our goons fire mortars at their embassy
4) They come out and blame US for the attack.

All in 24 hours.
