“And we should be uncompromising – using all the means at our disposal – including military force – to hunt down these extremists …”
That does incl. their commanders, right Mr. Cameron?
– British SAS Special Forces “Dressed Up as ISIS Rebels” Fighting Assad in Syria (Global Research, Aug 4, 2015):
By Stephen Lendman
On August 2, Britain’s Sunday Express newspaper headlined “SAS dress as ISIS fighters in undercover war on jihadis,” saying:
“More than 120 members belonging to the elite regiment are currently in the war-torn country” covertly “dressed in black and flying ISIS flags,” engaged in what’s called Operation Shader – attacking Syrian targets on the pretext of combatting ISIS.
Maybe covert US special forces and CIA elements are involved the same way. During Obama’s war on Libya, Britain deployed hundreds of Special Forces Support Group (SFSG) paratroopers – drawn from SAS (Special Air Service) and SBS (Special Boat Service) personnel.
Around 800 Royal Marines and 4,000 US counterparts were on standby to intervene on short notice if ordered.
The latest revelation comes two weeks after learning Prime Minister David Cameron last year approved British warplanes joining US ones in bombing Syria despite parliamentary rejection in August 2013.
At least part of its current covert ground operation is under US command – so-called “smash” units traveling in pickup trucks able to launch mini-UAVs to scan terrain for targets to attack.
Over 250 UK (and perhaps US) specialists are involved to provide communications support, the Sunday Express explained.
British Defense Secretary Michael Fallon said “(o)ur actions and surveillance capabilities are freeing up other countries to strike in Syria.”
UK SAS forces are in Saudi Arabia training anti-Assad terrorists along with US operatives doing the same thing – including in Turkey, Jordan, Qatar and perhaps Israel.
US and UK claims about training so-called “moderate” rebels reflect smoke-screen cover for working directly with ISIS terrorists – trained, armed and funded abroad, funneled cross-border into Syria to fight Assad, now with US/UK and Canadian air support along with covert commandos on the ground.
The Express cited former British Army General David Richards saying “tanks will roll” as part of UK operations in Syria.
A separate article discussed US airstrikes defending ISIS terrorists serving as US foot soldiers against Assad.
The Wall Street Journal reported what appears ominously like prelude to Libya 2.0 – falsely claiming Obama authorized airstrikes against Syrian forces if they attack (nonexistent) US-supported “moderate” rebels.
Separately, Turkish media reported President Recep Tayyip Erdogan saying Putin may have softened on Assad. (H)e may give up on” him.
Obama said he was “encouraged by the fact that Mr. Putin called him (in late June) and initiated the call to talk about Syria.”
I think they get a sense that the Assad regime is losing a grip over greater and greater swaths of territory inside of Syria and that the prospects for a (jihadist) takeover or rout of the Syrian regime is not imminent but becomes a greater and greater threat by the day. That offers us an opportunity to have a serious conversation with them.
Putin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said both leaders discussed combatting terrorism – especially the Islamic State.
“The Russian view is well-known,” he explained. “(I)t was reiterated by (Putin) during (his) conversation” with Obama. It hasn’t changed.
Putin opposes outside interference by any nations in the internal affairs of others. He supports the sovereign right of Syrians and other people to choose their own leaders and legislators.
Putin aide Yury Ushakov said “the current leadership of Syria is one of the real and effective forces confronting the Islamic State.”
Nothing indicates less Russian support for Assad.

Long time reader
One time donator
Second time poster
Love what you do, keep it up
Founding member of SFSG in 05 ( not 06 as officially stated ) now absolutely shot to bits after 12 years of combat ops, PTSD up the ying yang, persecutionary thoughts, homicidal ideation (of the scum at the top) and ODD as f##k
Kicked out in 3 months …….can’t have someone like me hanging around weapons and ammo
I dunno just done to much and snapped
Anyways I digress
We went every where they did SA, SB, and SRR to a certain extent
Hell even ran support for 6
We got all the same training so as to be able to integrate fully at any time,right down to needing an extra pair on an entry team
But recruited from the SAS and SBS we weren’t
Royal Marines (really struggled at first, got sent volentolds, and let’s just say they didn’t send their A team. No royal marine was gonna voletieer to work alongside the second unit comprising SFSG, the para regt, or one para as it was formerly
and the RAF regt a little known infantry unit in the RAF that punches well above its weight recruited from 2 Sqn ( whom coincidently 22 SAS stole the stable belt colour from post WW2) deep blue)
Wanted to clear that up for credibility reasons to the average reader
This site and its commentators know their s##t
critique it all, clear it up, and poke fun at the sheeple
PS I’m not a big poster though admittedly I have wanted too many times, due to my insights and experiences
But if ever I’m amble to assist be it assesment to a poke in a direction
You now have my email
Or just shine a big light of a mushroom in the sky
