By David Singer, published 7/10/2014

The PLO, pursuant to Article 20 of its 1968 Covenant, has never accepted the legal validity of the Mandate for Palestine, nor Great Britain's 1923 decision.

"Secret Russian spy base in Syria seized by Western-backed rebels" http://intelnews.org/2014/10/09/01-1571/ :

"Rebel forces aligned to Syria’s Western-backed opposition have announced the seizure of a joint Syrian-Russian spy base, which observers say reveals the extent of Russia’s intelligence cooperation with Syria. The base is located at the base of the Tel Al-Hara Mountain, in southern Syria’s Golan Heights region, just south of the border crossing with Israel in the now largely destroyed Syrian city of Quneitra.

At some point in the video, the seal of Syrian intelligence is clearly visible, placed next to the seal of the GRU’s 6th Directorate, the branch of Russian military intelligence that is tasked with collecting signals intelligence (SIGINT).

Interestingly, one of the walls in the base features a map of northern Israel, an area that is adjacent to the Golan Heights, and appears to show the location of Israeli SIGINT stations and military encampments."

Following Sweden's recent commitment to recognise the State of Palestine British MPs are set to vote on the issue shortly.

Will David and Israel be prepared to accept Britian's 2014 decision?

So the Russians have allied themselves to the only regime in the Middle East not mired in pig-ignorant coercive theocracy, which is defending its secular sovereign government against a gaggle of deadly coup groups so motley as to confound its Yank sponsors with an ever-changing dilemma over which ones to admit to opposing and which ones to admit to defending.

Onya, Ivan. Nice to see at least someone with some common sense.

Nice try.

Syria's President Assad is notoriously Islamic sectarian and the latest in an undemocratic family dynasty. Syria's Assad leads a Shiite minority ruling over a downtrodden Sunni majority.

Assad has had more than 100,000 victims of his cruel rule killed.

Assad is clearly yours and Russia's hero.
