It just keeps getting weirder and weirder. Via Mercuary Rising: Russian units raid Georgian airfields for use in Israeli strike against Iran.
The idea of Vladimir Putin being the hero of world peace is enough to make me choke.
I really don’t know what to add to this, I hope pond denizens will be able to shed some light on this.
Excuse me while I pull my hair out.

As I recently posted …
The Dutch intelligence service, the AIVD, has called off an operation aimed at infiltrating and sabotaging Iran’s weapons industry due to an assessment that a US attack on the Islamic Republic’s nuclear program is imminent, according to a report in the country’s De Telegraaf newspaper.
The impending air-strike on Iran was to be carried out by unmanned aircraft “within weeks,” the report claimed, quoting “well placed” sources.
According to the report, information gleaned from the AIVD’s operation in Iran has provided several of the targets that are to be attacked in the strike, including “parts for missiles and launching equipment.”
Israel began selling arms to Georgia seven years ago. U.S. grants facilitated these purchases. From Israel came former minister and former Tel Aviv Mayor Roni Milo, representing Elbit Systems, and his brother Shlomo, former director general of Military Industries. Israeli UAV spy drones, made by Elbit Maarahot Systems, conducted recon flights over southern Russia, as well as into nearby Iran.
UAV Eitan, also known as Heron TPIn a secret agreement between Israel and Georgia, two military airfields in southern Georgia had been earmarked for the use of Israeli fighter-bombers in the event of pre-emptive attacks against Iranian nuclear installations. This would sharply reduce the distance Israeli fighter-bombers would have to fly to hit targets in Iran. And to reach Georgian airstrips, the Israeli air force would fly over Turkey.

"But I will not let myself be reduced to silence."The title is misleading: The body of the article clearly implies the Russian attack disrupts the use of these fields as an attack base on Iran by Israel.
So how does this make the Russians AGAINST world peace?
Do you think attacking Iran is a GOOD idea?
I don’t, I might as well admit. If you want to speed up the End Times, though (because God is a slacker and cannot even be trusted to carry out his own projects) I think this would be the way to do it.
(OOPS: Or did you mean, that a former KGB officer, thug, and current de facto dictator somehow turns out to be the sanest of all our world leaders–is staggering and mind-boggling? Well, christ, YES, it certainly is!)
attacks on Iran, is in fact promoting world peace, which boggles the diarist’s mind. Thus, confusion & hair pulling.
