Russia Orders ‘Destruction’ of US Naval
Armada In Persian Gulf
By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers (Traducción

Reports in the Kremlin today are stating that Prime Minister Putin has
ordered the Defence Ministry of the Russian Federation to put the Volga-Urals
Military District and Black
Sea Fleet on ‘full war alert’ to
prepare for the defense of the Iranian Nation against what is being termed as
an ‘imminent attack’ being planned by
the Western Powers.
As we had previously reported on in our August 8^th report, “Kuwait Goes On ‘War Alert’
As Massive US Armada Heads For Iran”, the fears of Russian Military
Analysts have been realized with the US backed puppet state of Georgia
launching an unprecedented and unprovoked attack upon the Russian protected
enclave of South Ossetia, and to which the latest reports have put the death
toll at over 1,500 citizens of Russia and over 15 Russian Peacekeepers.
In a bid to force Russia from its planned defense of the Iranian peoples by
provoking war in the Caucasus, however, the West has severely miscalculated as
Putin has not only ordered the retaking of South Ossetia from the Western
backed Georgian forces, but has also ordered the destruction of all oil
pipelines going through Georgia to the West.
The first of these attacks is being reported today, and as we can read as
reported by the Reuters News Service:
“Russian fighter
jets targeted the the major Baku-Tbilisi-Ceyhan (BTC) oil pipeline which carries oil to the West
from Asia but missed, Georgia's Economic Development Minister Ekaterina Sharashidze said on Saturday."This clearly shows that Russia has not just targeted Georgian economic outlets but
international economic outlets in Georgia," she said at a news briefing.”
The West is, also, not alone in
arousing the might of the Russia’s,
as the Israelis have sided with their Western backers against the Russian
people, and as we can read as reported by one of Israel’s intelligence organs
DEBKAfile:
“Jerusalem
owns a strong interest in Caspian oil and gas pipelines reach the Turkish
terminal port of Ceyhan, rather than the Russian
network. Intense negotiations are afoot between Israel Turkey, Georgia,
Turkmenistan and Azarbaijan for pipelines to reach
Turkey and thence to Israel’s oil terminal at Ashkelon and on to its Red Sea port of Eilat. From there,
supertankers can carry the gas and oil to the Far East through the Indian
Ocean.
Aware of Moscow’s sensitivity
on the oil question, Israel offered Russia a stake in the project but was
rejected.
Last year, the Georgian
president commissioned from private Israeli security firms several hundred
military advisers, estimated at up to 1,000, to train the Georgian armed forces
in commando, air, sea, armored and artillery combat tactics. They also offer
instruction on military intelligence and security for the central regime.
Tbilisi also purchased weapons, intelligence and electronic warfare systems
from Israel.
These advisers were
undoubtedly deeply involved in the Georgian army’s preparations to conquer the
South Ossetian capital Friday.
In recent weeks, Moscow has
repeatedly demanded that Jerusalem halt its military assistance to Georgia,
finally threatening a crisis in bilateral relations. Israel responded by saying
that the only assistance rendered Tbilisi was “defensive.”
This has not gone down well in
the Kremlin. Therefore, as the military crisis intensifies in South Ossetia,
Moscow may be expected to punish Israel for its intervention.”
These reports continue by stating that the massive US backed Naval Armada,
said to be the largest
assembled since World War II, heading towards war with Iran will be
met by both Russian and Iranian counterattacks aimed at destroying these enemy
forces prior to their planned attack.
It is, also, interesting to note, that after unleashing the Israeli led
puppet Georgian military forces against unarmed Russian citizens and lightly
armed Russian peacekeepers, President Bush has said, “This fighting
must stop, and, “I am deeply concerned about the situation in Georgia,” he
said. “The United States takes this matter very seriously.”
But, not as seriously as he claims as he had just previously instructed his
Ambassador to the United Nations to veto Russia’s
resolution before the Security Council that stated, and as China’s Xinhua reports:
“The
draft also called on "the parties to cease bloodshed without delay and
renounce the use of force." Diplomats said that during the closed-door
consultations, the council failed to reach an agreement on the Russian text
because some council members, including the United States, opposed the part
calling on the parties to "renounce the use of force."
President Medvedev was so livid after President Bush’s refusal to commit to
peace that, these reports continue, he ordered the ‘immediate and systematic’ destruction of Georgian Military Forces,
‘wherever they are located in the World’.
Georgia’s President, Mikheil Saakashvili, responded to
Medvedev’s moves by declaring
martial law in Georgia
and ordering
all Georgian troops home from Iraq, where they had been stationed providing
support to the US
in its war on the Muslim peoples of the World.
These latest moves by the Georgian dictator, however, are appearing too late
in this war to save his troubled Nation, and as we can read from the latest
battlefield updates:
“The
war between Russia and Georgia expanded on Saturday, with fighting spilling
outside the Caucasus province of Ossetia, both sides moving reinforcements into
the region and Georgian President Mikheil Saakhashvili declaring martial law in the country.
While
the international community continued to exhort both sides to step back from
the brink, the United Nations Security Council remained unable to forge a
united response. The fiercest battles were in the South Ossetian city of Tskhinvali, where street fighting and
artillery exchanges continued throughout the day and eyewitnesses reported city
blocks reduced to rubble.
Russian
forces consisting of Spetsnaz special forces infantry, and paratrooper infantry flown in from the Russian
interior had captured Tskhinvali by Saturday
afternoon, Georgian officials said. Aleksander Lomaia, Georgia's national security chief, in a telephone
interview said Georgian forces had pulled back from the town 'unilaterally.' Lomaia estimated the Russian infantry assault force at
1,500 to 2,500 troopers.
Counts
of civilian casualties varied widely, with Georgia estimating between one and
two dozen killed, and some 100 injured as of Friday evening. Eduard Kokoity, South Ossetia's
leader, claimed more than 1,600 civilians had died and implied thousands more
had been injured.”
And, as Prime Minister Putin has just
arrived in the War Region of South Ossetia, the resolve of the Worlds peace
loving Nations to stop the expansion of the Western Powers though military
might appears to have met its most logical first major obstacle by the
awakening of a very, very angry Russian Bear from its long hibernation since
the dissolution of the Soviet Empire.
