(CNSNews.com) – State Department spokesman John
Kirby on Thursday rejected as “bogus” accusations
by Russian officials that he was inciting
terrorism by warning that Moscow’s failure to
stop its aggression in Aleppo may lead to terror
attacks in Russian cities and Russian troops being shipped home in body bags.
Kirby made the comments at a briefing Wednesday,
when asked what the consequences would be for
Russia if it failed to heed international calls
to stop – and pressure its Assad regime ally to
stop – bombing parts of Syria’s biggest city.
He replied that the civil war would continue,
terror attacks against Russian interests would
continue, Russia may lose more aircraft, and
“continue to send troops home in body bags.”
To official Russian ears, the remarks sounded
like a threat – even incitement of terrorism, in
keeping with the Kremlin’s narrative that the
U.S.’s support for some anti-Assad rebels in
Syria amounts to collusion with terrorists.
“We cannot interpret this as anything else apart
from the current U.S. administration’s de facto
support for terrorism,” Russian news agencies
quoted Deputy Foreign Minister Sergey Ryabkov as saying.
“These poorly-veiled invitations to use terrorism
as a weapon against Russia shows the political
depths the current U.S. administration has
stooped to in its approach to the Middle East and Syria,” he added.
The allegation also came from Kirby’s counterpart
at the Russian foreign ministry, Maria Zakharova,
who

a weekly briefing the comments could not be seen
as anything other than “a call to action” to the terrorists.
If the U.S. had any information on possible
terrorist attacks being planned in Russian
cities, she added, it should immediately inform Moscow.
At the defense ministry, spokesman Maj. Gen. Igor
Konashenkov called Kirby’s comments “the clearest
admission from the American side that the alleged
opposition in the Syrian civil war is a
U.S.-controlled terrorist international.”
At Thursday’s departmental briefing, Kirby said
his earlier comments were neither a threat nor incitement.
“They’re not things that we haven’t said before,”
he said. “The question was: What would be the
consequences to Russia for not being serious
about meeting their commitments? And I said what
I have said, the secretary has said, many times
before: That the consequences are more war, more bloodshed.”
“And it’s Russian troops that are in that war,
not U.S. troops,” Kirby continued.
“I’ve seen claims that I was trying to incite
terrorism, and that’s just completely bogus,” he
said. “That’s not at all the point that I was trying to make.”
On Wednesday, Secretary of State John Kerry
threatened during a phone conversation with his
Russian counterpart, Sergei Lavrov, to end
U.S.-Russia engagement on the Syria conflict
unless Russia and the Assad regime stop the air attacks in Aleppo.
Kirby’s “body bag” comment came in response to a
question from a reporter who asked what
consequences there would be for Russia if it
fails to comply – “other than Secretary Kerry
won’t talk to them on this particular issue.”
“The consequences are that the civil war will
continue in Syria,” Kirby replied, “that
extremists and extremists groups will continue to
exploit the vacuums that are there in Syria to
expand their operations, which will include, no
question, attacks against Russian interests – perhaps even Russian cities.”
“And Russia will continue to send troops home in
body bags, and they will continue to lose
resources – even, perhaps, more aircraft,” he
continued. “The stability that they claim they
seek in Syria will be ever more elusive.”
The latest war of words comes as Russia marks the
first anniversary of the beginning of its
airstrike campaign in Syria in support of President Bashar al-Assad.
Over the past ten days, the administration has
accused Russia and the Assad regime of actions in
Syria that could violate international law.
For its part, Russia accuses the U.S. of not
applying pressure on the rebel groups which it
supports, to disassociate themselves from the
al-Qaeda-affiliated Jabhat al-Nusra (now calling itself Jabhat Fateh al-Sham.)
So much emphasis is placed on select Jewish
participation in Bormann companies that when
Adolf Eichmann was seized and taken to Tel Aviv
to stand trial, it produced a shock wave in the
Jewish and German communities of Buenos Aires.
Jewish leaders informed the Israeli authorities
in no uncertain terms that this must never happen
again because a repetition would permanently
rupture relations with the Germans of Latin
America, as well as with the Bormann
organization, and cut off the flow of Jewish
money to Israel. It never happened again, and the
pursuit of Bormann quieted down at the request of
these Jewish leaders. He is residing in an
Argentinian safe haven, protected by the most
efficient German infrastructure in history as
well as by all those whose prosperity depends on his well-being.

Please consider seriously the reason why these elite institutions are not discussed in the mainstream press despite the immense financial and political power they wield?
There are sick and evil occultists running the Western World. They are power mad lunatics like something from a kids cartoon with their fingers on the nuclear button! Armageddon is closer than you thought. Only God can save our souls from their clutches, at least that's my considered opinion - Tony
