| via wikileaks who tweeted link [Fortruss.blogspot] "An Arab news source [Al Masdar News] reports that a military contingent of the PRC is on the way to Latakia and will arrive in Syrian ports any day. Chinese transport with military cargo was spotted on Tuesday morning, passing through the Suez canal. Information about the Chinese military experts heading to Tartus was confirmed by the commander of the Syrian army. The report concludes that Moscow will create in Syria an anti-terrorist coalition that will become the alternative version of the military alliance formed by the US for dropping supplies to ISIS. Military entrance of China into the struggle for Syria will be an important addition to today's statement by the Iranian Foreign Ministry. At a press conference with "Russia Today" deputy foreign minister of Iran, Hossein Amir Abdollahian stated that Iran will fight ISIS together with Russia. Notably Amir talked not just about an alliance, but a creation of a broad military coalition. "We welcome the Russian President's proposal on establishment of a common front in a fight against terrorism and are even ready in realizing this initiative to carry out joint operations and cooperate together," - said deputy foreign minister of Iran. |

| #4 What is interesting is that Russia would even require additional assistance from China or anyone else, with their challenge in Syria. Who says they asked the Chinese to come? Seems to me Russia, China, and USA compete for Iran's friendship---a rare show of silliness. |

'Terrorism' as a convenient cover for action. Who knew ? What is interesting is that Russia would even require additional assistance from China or anyone else, with their challenge in Syria. |
