The meeting between Trump and Putin at the G20 in Hamburg injects new hope into the complicated relationship between the United States and Russia. Only time can confirm whether there is any basis for this hope.
The most eagerly anticipated meeting of the year, that between Putin and Trump, lasted far more than the scheduled 20 minutes, extending past two hours. This is not too much of a surprise given the points of friction that needed to be discussed, the many outstanding issues in international relations, and the fact that this was the first official meeting between the two world leaders. The results achieved exceeded initial ambitions, and the personal chemistry between Putin and Trump seems to have been sufficient to reach an important agreement in Syria as well as to conduct discussions surrounding cyber security. Trump even asked Putin about the alleged Russian hacking in the US presidential election as a way of appeasing detractors back home. The statements of both presidents following their meeting underlined their positive intentions. Putin called Trump a very different person from the one portrayed in the media, mentioning that he was reflective and very attentive to details. Trump, for his part, praised the meeting with Putin, stating the importance of dialogue between nuclear-armed superpowers.
The most important agreement concerned a ceasefire in southern Syria along the border with Israel and Jordan. This is a very active area of fighting, and so the ceasefire obviates the possibility of dangerous confrontations between the United States and Russia, as well as between Syria and Israel, which could escalate out of control as seen when the US Air Force shot down a Syrian Su-22 jet as well an Iranian drone. Israel, from its position in the occupied Golan Heights, has repeatedly struck the Syrian Arab Army (SAA), in a desperate effort to halt its gains against al Qaeda and Daesh terrorists.
In their first meeting, within less than two hours, Putin and Trump came to an agreement on potentially the most volatile situation in the region, saving hundreds of civilian lives in the process. The agreement on Syria now has to run the gauntlet of the deep state and all the other interests arrayed against Trump. Just four days following a similar agreement reached in 2016 between Obama and Putin, everything was upended by the US Air Force bombing and killing nearly a hundred soldiers of the Syrian Arab Army in Deir ez-Zor, shredding the ceasefire agreement that had just been reached.
Trump is dealing with the same occult forces that sabotaged Obama’s ceasefire agreement. It is impossible to know how much strategic support the US deep state has for the ceasefire decision. Ever since the SAA reached the Iraqi border north of al-Tanf, the space available for the US and her allies to maneuver has been dramatically diminished. With al-Tanf isolated, Washington's ceasefire does not change or shift the already heavily altered balance of power in that area of Syria. For all these reasons, the ceasefire does not appear to be a concession by either party but merely a commonsense move to lessen the possibility of a direct confrontation between super-powers.
The military apparatus seems to be focused on the situation in northern Syria, with Raqqa and Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) being the central pivot for the US to reach Deir ez-Zor and its associated oilfields. The US State Department, as well as the US military wing involved in Syria, hope to balkanize Syria, dismembering it in different regions and putting Raqqa under the control of a puppet authority in Damascus. However, such American hopes of imposing a Brennan-style governorate as in Iraq is forlorn, as Damascus is the only authority recognized on Syrian territory, and once Raqqa is filled with returning Syrian citizens, such American plans will fall apart. Moreover, the Baghdad authorities have already made clear on two occasions how reluctant they are to support Americans in their military operations. In the case of Mosul, they reiterated that the US deployment and involvement be minimal, while the Iraqi authorities have already announced that they want to place under their full control their border with Syria, in effect hobbling Washington’s plan to leave chaos and instability along the borders of the two countries. The US deep state finds in chaos the ideal way to channel conflict and foment instability. One of the most important objectives of the Syrian and Iraqi armies is therefore to isolate the borders and control the flow of human traffic from one country to the other, nixing in the process what has hitherto been a strategic advantage for Daesh and other terrorist organizations, where they have been free to cross borders with weapons and whatever else they please.
Trump and all the actors involved in this negotiation are finally able to make an agreement between Moscow and Washington stand. Unlike with previous agreements, the US in Syria is now in a worse situation than it was 12 months ago, having failed to achieve many of its strategic objectives. Cooperation with Turkey in northern Syria was wrecked following the liberation of Aleppo and the clear US support for the Kurds (SDF). Similarly, areas of deconfliction in Syria agreed to in Astana (between Iran, Russia and Turkey) have stopped the gains of terrorists in many active areas of the conflict, leading to zero chances of occupying more towns. Such efforts have been important bargaining chips during the various peace negotiations.
The crux of this strategy seems to be a focus on the only possible solution that meets the interests of the deep state’s military wing, related to the original plan to dismantle Syria once the removal of Assad failed. From a certain point of view, it may make sense to focus on the situation in the north of the country in Raqqa, the only area where the US still has some influence. This may be the contorted vision drawn up by contending factions of American deep state. Certainly from the point of view of Moscow, the strategy in Syria is a mix of diplomatic solutions, seeking to reach multiple ceasefire agreements with major players like Turkey and the United States, but never setting aside the war effort carried out by Russia, Iran and Syria.
The agreement between Putin and Trump will firstly benefit Syrian civilians as well as widening the opportunity for the SAA to liberate more towns and villages from the grip of terrorism. It is a long-awaited agreement and solution that is now met by the predominant wing of the US deep state. In the event of a failure of the agreement, Trump will be obligated to point out to the world the subversion of the Washington establishment and its deep state, which works to frustrate his agenda and replace it with its own terrible policies.
Moscow's confidence in deriving concrete benefits from this deal increases hour by hour, thanks to the truce continuing to hold. From the Russian point of view, any military sabotage would once again lay American intentions bare, regardless of Trump's subsequent moves. However, one thing that is certain is that in the case of sabotage, Trump will be faced with having to make a definitive choice.
- Either he will surrender to the deep state, returning the situation back to a state of hyper-conflict with a nuclear superpower; or
- he will confront and overcome the deep state, thereby enabling him to implement his electoral promises.
Peace will likely prevail.
When we're all dead.
Well the primary party not interested in this cease fire is Israel. And the reason we have this cease fire is because Kushner wasn't in the room to shit on it when Putin and Trump struck the deal.
If you want to know who the deep state is look no further than Israel. They are overstepping their bounds and the people of this country are starting to wake up. Slowly but surely.
Southeastern Syria is but one front in World War III for greater Israel. It is a full spectrum war, and the yids and their Zato puppets will simply open another front, say in Lebanon. It could be cyber attacks, it could be natural disasters or drought, it could be demonstrations and revolution. But SE Syria will become part of Israel or the goyim will be forced to pay.
Besides, as far as I know Zato is still occupying al Tanf and they will remain there until the next false flag.
Israel wants water supplies in S Lebanon and Golan Heights as part of its expanding empire.They have Jordan as a puppet state funded by US taxpayers and need US to occupy Iraq and Syria
At some point in the future they will have to stage another holocaust in order to scare a couple million jews out of the west to settle those new provinces of Greater Israel. This could be one reason (((they))) are sending the rapefugees to northern Europe.... to drive jews to their soon to be newly occupied territories.
Peace will prevail when all the bankers are dead. 'Bankers" being a generic term for the entire warmongering complex.
How the hell was Syria ever a threat to the United States? Why are we there? There is an answer but you need to have stars on your collar and an allegiance to another country to think it's a good idea.
actually, i don't think many people in langley have stars on their collars. they will do anything to promote the greater israel project though.
Nobody is a direct threat. That's the irony.
The Banksters, Deep State and MIC are the main threats to the world.
Syria has been on the Coup List in Langley since 1957
(((occult forces)))
Why is everyone afraid to Name The Jew? I mean, it's not like they are renowned warriors like the Romans or the Vikings or the Huns.
Masada.
Mass suicide and murder or put to the sword by romans: still dead losers.
It was stupid thinking to go to the to of masada. Death was sure to follow.
Great, now I am going to have to cancel the family vacation to Aleppo that I just booked
Before Trump, there was President Obama’s Iraqi refugee ban and seven nations of terror proclamation.
But before Obama there was Bill Clinton who received a standing ovation for demanding stronger border defenses, and deporting criminal illegal immigrants.
“We are a nation of immigrants.. but we are a nation of laws”
“Our nation is rightly disturbed by the large numbers of illegal aliens entering our country…
Illegal immigrants take jobs from citizens or legal immigrants, they impose burdens on our taxpayers…
That is why we are doubling the number of border guards, deporting more illegal immigrants than ever before, cracking down on illegal hiring, barring benefits to illegal aliens, and we will do more to speed the deportation of illegal immigrants arrest for crimes…
It is wrong and ultimately self-defeating for a nation of immigrants to permit the kind of abuse of our immigration laws that has occurred in the last few years.. and we must do more to stop it.”
Factions
Its all about the money. Billions for the MIC. US firms in the MIC business fuel all world conflict. Without US MIC arms, conflicts are contained to small arms.
Simply stop the export of US MIC attack aircraft, missle systems, ammo, APCs, TOWs, tanks, etc. and the whole cabal collapses. So easily stopped... but for... the MONEY stupid.
Catch the saboteurs, over there. Kill them on the spot. Both sides.!!!
Another cease fire was wrecked when White Helmets said Syrians/Russians bombed an aid convoy. Why the Syrians would want to do that was never explained. The convoy appeared to have been set on fire by a ground attack. The Russians aaid hey there are no signs of this convoy having been bombed - no strike marks or craters on the ground - no twisted chassis or wheels blown off - it looks like intact vehicles set on fire.
American response was we're not interested in your pernickety forensics - the White Helmets said they saw it being bombed and that's good enough for us. All the international agencies have been 100% co-opted by the deep state...UN, Red Cross, NATO....

Because it was a mortar attack staged by Obamas terrorist army. Go back and reexamine the photos.
With Obama there was no price to be paid for foiling his plans. I think it will take a brace man to cross Trump. You will note that after the Syrian fighter was shot down the carrier it was launched from was pulled off station. It's been real quiet ever since.
Well Duh, can't make a Profit from Peace !
How is Trump going to confront the deep state when he has already delegate all military decision makings to the generals back in May ?
The real objective of the deep-state; the shadow government that operates secretly to satisfy its own objectives is to assassinate President Trump. Very possibly, the most plausible scenerio for a Trump assassination is an altitude bomb (detonates at pre-determined height) smuggled aboard Air Force One by either an unwitting passenger or a willing accomplice. Remember, there are thousands of Loretta Lynch-type government workers who feel entitled to circumvent laws (and even morality itself) in order to achieve, in their view, a greater good. Such dysfunctional Trump-haters must be rooted-out. I sincerely hope the Secret Service thoroughly checks ALL luggage aboard any aircraft or vehicle the president is to occupy. Any areas of laxity could be exploited for a possible attack. The idea is not new. The same type of airborne assassination attempt was made against Hitler in 1944. I suppose I am overly paranoid about losing President Trump. I think it would be a terrible blow to our country and the world.
Why not just call the Deep State...what it really is.... ISRAEL
Once people get that they may finally demand change
And who controls the airwaves?
But then who controls Israel?...the rabbit hole goes deeper than you can imagine...
Stunning revelation, I am sure your all just fucking stunned.
The un gave a report saying Syria supported its government. Why doesn't the UN step in to help Assad maintain control

The cease-fire in southern Syria is being brokered by Syria, Russia, Jordan and the US, not Israel. Israel has been assisting Al Qaeda in Golan Heights and Netanyahu has stated that Israel opposes the cease-fire.

Russia is sending troops to southern Syria to monitor the cease-fire.

Israel is the most likely place for a false-flag attack or the terrorists sponsored by Israel will break it.
