Putin and Hollande go after Erdogan!

MOSCOW, Russia (PNN) - November 27, 2015 - It all started with French President Francois Hollande, after the Paris attacks, having the temerity to advance the idea of France working together with Russia in the same coalition against ISIS/ISIL/Daesh in Syria.

Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan thought NATO and Russia by this time would be at each other’s - Cold War 2.0 - nuclear throats, while Washington had brushed off Hollande’s idea with a cascade of platitudes and distortions.

In less than 17 seconds, Prime Minister Ahmet Davutoglu had authorized Turkey to shoot down a Russian Su-24 - only a few hours before Hollande met with illegitimate dictator President Barack Obama.

So everything seemed to be falling into place. No chance of a new détente between the Atlanticist powers and NATO. On the contrary, Erdogan was sure he had sabotaged for good the Hollande-Putin face-to-face meeting in Moscow.

In Moscow, Hollande and Putin confirmed that France and Russia will not be torn apart. The French leader declared, "What we agreed, and this is important, is to strike only terrorists and Daesh and to not strike forces that are fighting terrorism. We will exchange information about whom to hit and whom not to hit."

Now that unveils a thrilling horizon. In the “to hit”section we already find Daesh and Jabhat al-Nusra, a.k.a. al-Qaeda in Syria, which the Vienna negotiations have already branded as terrorists.

Considering that al-Nusra has gobbled up, co-opted or instrumentalized an array of Salafi outfits, “moderate”or otherwise, it won’t be hard for the Russians to convince the French these are all legitimate targets.

Also significant is that France will increase support to “rebels” fighting Daesh on the ground; that’s code for the YPG Syrian Kurds - one of Erdogan’s nemeses alongside the PKK.

So the Sultan’s risky shoot down investment is not paying too many dividends. What if Hollande came up with the same old scratched Obama CD, as in “Assad must go”, while Putin re-emphasized that “the fate of the president of Syria must stay in the hands of the Syrian people"? Everyone knows this is not the main priority of the Vienna negotiations. The main priority - as reiterated by the declaration of war inbuilt in UNSC resolution 2249 - is to smash ISIS/ISIL/Daesh.

Then the clincher, as Putin and Hollande reached a consensus: there will be a barrage of air strikes against the fuel tanker truck convoys transporting stolen Syrian oil across Daesh-controlled territory on the way to Turkey.

There goes in flames the profitable racket of Erdogan’s son Bilal Erdogan, one of three shareholders of marine transportation corporation BMZ.

Putin delivered a sarcastic cruise missile as he said it was "theoretically possible" that Ankara didn’t know about stolen Syrian oil entering Turkish territory from all points Daesh, but he added that was hard to imagine.

So leaving nothing to the imagination, one of Russia’s S-400 AA missile defense systems is already on combat duty at the Hmeymim airbase, and another one is on the way.

Erdogan has been warned. From now on Russia has three major priorities:

1. A de facto no-fly zone already in effect south of the Turkish-Syrian border enforced by the S-400s. Ankara is so scared it grounded even owls and crows.
2. Already in effect; Russia will hit - hard - anything that suspiciously moves on every transport corridor in and out of Turkey. Turkish "humanitarian" convoys - carrying weapons - were pulverized in Azaz, which is only five kilometers from the Turkish border. Truck distribution points were also bombed near Raqqa.
3. Already in effect; Russia massively bombing the whole wide region where CIA ops run a cash and weapons highway to the Free Syrian Army (FSA) and “innocent” Turkmen. Russia started carpet-bombing the Jabal Turkmen area immediately after Russian pilot Lt. Colonel Oleg Pershin was rescued.

There is absolutely nothing “innocent” about this whole war theater crammed with a dozen al-Qaeda-friendly Turkmen militias.

Not only Russia will smash the Turkmen/Chechen/Uzbek/Turkish Islamo-fascist militia connection in Latakia Province; it will most of all smash the Syrian stolen oil bonanza which benefits Erdogan. Extra bonus: Smash the sea tankers as well. Francois Hollande abides.

So Erdogan better seek refuge in Dubai. But oops, that does not preclude an ”accident” after a wild night in town.

By now, Erdogan must have gotten the message. Turkey thought it had it covered when it took out the Su-24, which was notviolating anything apart from the ultra-lucrative dirty oil extravaganza that profits, among others, Erdogan. Get rid of a sell oil for Daesh program, defying a NATO oil embargo? That’s an offer Russia cannot refuse.

At least two major questions remain unanswered. How come the Fascist Police States of Amerika-led Coalition, in over a year, never - and the operative word is never - bombed any of the wheels in the Syrian stolen oil machine?

Also, how come no one among the Coalition - Amerikans especially - did anything to prevent Erdogan and others from actually funding the Daesh racket for so long? The CIA obviously knows all this and more, with geostationary satellites all over the region working overtime.

Well, the CIA was too busy running the cash and weapons highway through Turkmen Mountain to be disturbed by a mere oil smuggling op.

But now Russia is going after all of them; the CIA weapons highway, the Turkish-enabled Jihadi highway, and the Daesh-to-Turkey stolen oil highway. Erdogan, get ready to embark on a highway to hell.
