PS - how's about you post a link to some news we can actually get some access to. I prefer not to subscribe to some piece of dog shit right-wing rag to get the dependably valuable links you provide.
I'm looking at getting the Dam back just for the humanitarian aspect.

As far as the source it was a top of the news on Google News, one of the few that had the story that early. It was not blocked google> WSJ. I look at all sources that carry a story that's why you all are in the dark. Selective in your news sources just like putting people on ignore list. Some don't want any information unless it fits what they want to believe.

PS: Google the title that got me into the story.

The WSJ may be right leaning but certainly not tabloid.

I heard the Dam's been retaken.

For some reason that TV commercial for medical alert buttons came to mind when I read this ^..."I've fallen and I can't get up."

AUTOBOT RESPONSE:

I'm sorry Bob, that statement is copyrighted, or trademarked, or whatever the heck it is that allows corporations to kill you.

The other Syrian rebels are calling on the US to strike ISIS which has been enhanced by the amount of American equipment abandoned by the Iraqi
army.

Now these rebels also hate America.

They want also America to strike Assad.

What should be clear to any sensible student of the region is that we should abandon any notion of establishing democracy there and should stop undermining strong autocratic leaders.
