Turkey’s Frontline

Erdogan wants to force Kurdish militia away from the borderSources: Conflict Monitor by IHS Markit, areas of control as of Sept. 30, 2019; Office of the Turkish President

Russia wants Erdogan to comply with a 2006 security accord that allows for Turkish operations against Syrian Kurdish YPG militia near the border “but does not allow for a long-term presence,” said Vladimir Frolov, a former Russian diplomat and foreign policy analyst in Moscow. “This is about establishing territorial limits on the Turkish operation, and for the Kurds it’s about establishing a no-fly zone for Turkish planes.”

Putin’s Syria Gambit Delivers Again as Trump Sidelines U.S.

Michael_Novakhov shared this story .

The Turkish troops who poured into Syria to battle Kurdish fighters abandoned by the U.S. may have inadvertently handed Russian President Vladimir Putin a strategic victory in the Middle East.
Less than a week after Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan ordered the intervention, Russia has maneuvered to get Syrian government forces into territory held by the Kurds for seven years during the war with U.S. support, until President Donald Trump ordered a troop withdrawal. It’s a major step in Putin’s efforts to restore Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s control over all of the country after Russia’s military intervention tipped the war in his favor.
“Putin has forced his allies and rivals to accept that he has essentially become the architect of the political and military balances in the Syrian conflict,” Ayham Kamel, head of Middle East and North East research at Eurasia Group, said by email. “Attempting to manage conflicting Israeli, Iranian, Saudi and Turkish interests in Syria is far from an easy mission but Putin’s power and prestige in the region has grown.”
The U.S. sought to regain the initiative Monday by demanding “an immediate cease-fire” from Erdogan and imposing sanctions that fell short of what some lawmakers in Congress were seeking. That came a day after the Kurdish-led authority in northeast Syria had announced that it had struck a deal with Damascus and Moscow for the Syrian army to protect the northern border with Turkey after the U.S. decision to pull out its remaining 1,000 troops in the area.
While Assad’s forces are no match for NATO member Turkey’s military, which has already penetrated 30 kilometers (18 miles) into Syria, their push toward the Turkish border signals Russia’s intention to curtail the scope of Erdogan’s ambitions.

Shaping Syria

It also gives the Kremlin undisputed leadership in shaping Syria’s future, bolstering Putin’s image in the Middle East, where he’s already forged a partnership with Iran, created an oil alliance with Saudi Arabia and built close ties with Egypt’s strongman President Abdel Fattah El-Sisi. Putin has also wooed Erdogan, who defied U.S. opposition to buy Russia’s advanced S-400 air-defense system, and they have coordinated efforts to try to resolve the Syrian war despite tensions over the Kurds.
The Russian leader arrived in the United Arab Emirates on Tuesday after traveling from Saudi Arabia, where he made his first visit since 2007, reinforcing the Kremlin’s efforts to exploit waning U.S. influence in the Middle East under Trump and his predecessor Barack Obama.
Russian officials said they’re working to balance the often-conflicting interests of Moscow’s partners in Syria. “We’re holding contacts to establish a way forward in line with international law and respecting the interests of all sides involved in this process,” Deputy Foreign Minister Mikhail Bogdanov told reporters in Riyadh, the Saudi capital.
Trump on Monday held phone talks with Kurdish military commander Mazloum Abdi and Erdogan in the presence of Republican Senator Lindsey Graham, who has pushed for “crippling” sanctions on Turkey. The U.S. president assured Abdi he would do “everything possible” to stop the Turkish incursion, Graham said on Twitter.
The Kurds face “painful compromises” in working with Moscow and Assad, Abdi said in an op-ed in Foreign Policy on Sunday. “But if we have to choose between compromises and the genocide of our people, we will surely choose life.”
Russia wants Erdogan to comply with a 2006 security accord that allows for Turkish operations against Syrian Kurdish YPG militia near the border “but does not allow for a long-term presence,” said Vladimir Frolov, a former Russian diplomat and foreign policy analyst in Moscow. “This is about establishing territorial limits on the Turkish operation, and for the Kurds it’s about establishing a no-fly zone for Turkish planes.”
The Kremlin and Damascus appear to be counting on the Kurds to ensure control of the territory and limit any revival of Islamist terrorism there. The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces said the autonomous administration remains responsible for political leadership and internal security, while the deployment of Assad’s forces was limited to halting the Turkish advance.
Ankara says the offensive, which has provoked a wave of international condemnation. is necessary to push back Kurdish fighters it describes as terrorists linked to separatists inside Turkey.
But Putin on Friday warned that the operation risked triggering a resurgent threat from Islamic State, with thousands of jihadists detained by the Kurds potentially able to escape. “This is a real threat to all of us,” he told regional counterparts in Turkmenistan. The Kurds said Sunday that nearly 800 inmates affiliated with Islamic State had escaped from a detention center after Turkish shelling.
Putin stepped up his message at the weekend, calling for all forces “deployed illegitimately” in Syria to leave. “Right now, we are discussing this openly with all our partners, including Iran and Turkey,” Putin said in an interview with Arabic-language channels released Sunday.
The Turkish attack and U.S. pullback presented a perfect opportunity to achieve Russian goals in Syria and restore central control over the oil-rich northeast, according to Elena Suponina, a Moscow-based Middle East expert.
“Russia has always wanted the government to recover control of as much territory as possible,” she said.

Why the Right Lost Israel’s Do-over Election | The Jewish Press - JewishPress.com | Evelyn Gordon | 16 Tishri 5780 – October 15, 2019

It’s still unclear whether Israel’s next election will be in four years or four months. But either way, if the center-right wants a better outcome, it needs to learn the lessons of September’s election. So here are two: First, while center-right voters realize that many things leftists deem “anti-democratic” actually aren’t, they dislike behavior that’s genuinely anti-democratic. Second, though the Arab parties are shunned deservedly, treating all Israeli Arabs as anti-Israel is both wrong and counterproductive.

In April’s election, the nonreligious center-right parties (Likud and Kulanu) won a combined 39 seats running separately. But in September, running together, they won just 32 seats. Moreover, most of those lost votes didn’t stay in the center-right/religious bloc: Though the bloc as a whole lost only five seats, that was mainly because fewer religious Zionist votes were wasted on parties that didn’t make it into the Knesset.
Some voters migrated to Benny Gantz’s Blue and White or Avigdor Lieberman’s Yisrael Beiteinu, now rebranded as an anti-haredi and anti-Netanyahu party. But an estimated three seats’ worth simply stayed home in an election where overall turnout rose.
So why did center-right voters desert? Primarily, because Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu crossed lines in the latest campaign that he never crossed before.
I’ve defended Netanyahu for years against false charges of anti-democratic conduct. For instance, there’s nothing undemocratic about the nation-state law, proposals to rein in Israel’s hyper-politicized Supreme Court or requiring NGOs funded mainly by foreign governments to say so openly. But during the latest campaign, he unquestionably adopted undemocratic tactics.
Take, for instance, his claim that Arab voter fraud “stole” April’s election from the right. Undermining faith in the validity of an election is extremely dangerous because no democracy can survive if people don’t trust elections to be free and fair. Thus election results should be called into question only in extreme cases, like the 2013 Beit Shemesh mayoral election, which a court invalidated because massive and well-documented fraud coupled with a very close result made the outcome genuinely dubious.
April’s election, however, produced neither evidence of large-scale fraud nor a close result. In fact, parties explicitly pledged to support a rightist, Netanyahu-led government won 65 of the Knesset’s 120 seats. If Arab voter fraud produced that outcome, Israeli Arabs are the world’s most incompetent fraudsters.
True, Netanyahu nevertheless failed to form a government, but Arabs weren’t responsible for that. The culprits were Lieberman’s abandonment of his pre-election promise to support such a government; Naftali Bennett’s desertion of the main religious Zionist party to start his own, which wasted almost four seats’ worth of votes when it failed to cross the electoral threshold; and Netanyahu’s impending indictments, which made center-left parties unwilling to join his government. In short, he undermined faith in the fairness of Israel’s elections to divert blame for the right’s own failures.
Or consider his proposal to allow cameras in polling stations to monitor voter fraud, which he tried unsuccessfully to ram through the Knesset a week before September’s election. The idea itself wasn’t illegitimate; even some leftists support it in principle. But the timing undeniably was.
Major changes in the rules of the game shouldn’t be made one week before an election, when neither election officials nor the parties have time to prepare properly for their implementation. That’s Democracy 101. Nor should they be hastily passed in a party-line vote without serious consideration.
The same goes for Netanyahu’s desire to enact legislation granting sitting prime ministers immunity from prosecution—something he vowed not to do before April’s election but then demanded during post-election coalition negotiations. Again, the idea itself isn’t illegitimate; many democracies grant immunity to sitting chief executives, including America (the Justice Department’s longstanding position is that sitting presidents can’t be indicted) and France. But such a major systemic change requires careful consideration, especially since Israel, unlike America and France, lacks term limits. It shouldn’t be a party-line decision made solely to save one man from imminent indictment.
Yet Netanyahu’s disregard for democratic norms wasn’t his only problem. He also forgot the critical distinction between the Arab parties and the Arab electorate.
The parties are a collection of Islamists, Communists and radical Palestinian nationalists whose Knesset members actively work to undermine the Jewish state. They at best justify terror and at worst abet it; they spread vicious lies about Israel; they oppose rapprochement between Israel and Arab countries, and support anti-Israel terror groups. They aren’t legitimate partners for any Israeli government, and this must be said clearly.
But most ordinary Israeli Arabs aren’t anti-Israel; in fact, 65 percent say they’re proud to be Israeli. Granted, most oppose Israel’s self-definition as a Jewish state, but they’re nevertheless willing to be good citizens. And while identity politics still drives most to vote for Arab parties, the majority is dissatisfied with those parties. Thus not only do they not deserve to be tarred as enemies, but Israel has an interest in encouraging them to desert the Arab parties.
Instead, Netanyahu drove them straight into those parties’ arms by repeated invective against “Arabs,” which Arab voters naturally interpreted as referring to themselves even when he presumably meant the parties. One over-the-top post on his official Facebook page, for instance, warned that the left would ally with “Arabs who want to destroy us all—women, children and men.”
As a result, 82 percent of Arab voters backed the Arab parties’ Joint List, up from 70 percent in April (when the parties ran two separate tickets), and Arab turnout soared. Those two factors combined to give the Joint List potentially unprecedented clout: Its chairman will become leader of the opposition if a unity government is formed.
That Netanyahu’s behavior didn’t cost Likud even more votes is because he has been a superb prime minister, and above all, because too many Israelis still have traumatic memories of soaring terrorism under other premiers. But as September’s election shows, that alone isn’t enough for victory. If the right wants to win next time, it must resume its traditional regard for genuine democratic principles. And it must stop treating Arab voters as indistinguishable from their parties.

1. Trump from Michael_Novakhov (197 sites): Palmer Report: Rudy Giuliani just confessed

Michael_Novakhov shared this story from Trumpism And Trump – trumpismandtrump.com.



During his time as Donald Trump’s legal counsel, Rudy Giuliani has only consistently been good at one thing: confessing. Rudy has repeatedly gone on TV and blurted out aspects of Trump’s scandals that weren’t known to the public or to investigators. Now that Rudy himself has been cornered by federal investigators, he’s trying the old “go ahead and confess” strategy once again.


On Monday evening the Wall Street Journal reported that the SDNY has already obtained and sifted through Rudy Giuliani’s bank records, and has spent months interviewing witnesses who have been testifying against Giuliani. This means they’ve had Rudy nailed to the wall since before they arrested his henchmen last week. The Feds already have documentation of Rudy’s illegal foreign payoffs, and he’ll be indicted for it. Rudy’s response tonight: yep.



Late tonight, Reuters has reported that Rudy Giuliani took half a million dollars from a company run by one of the Ukrainian guys who was arrested last week. So what’s their source? These three words from the article make it clear: “Giuliani told Reuters.”

That’s right, Rudy Giuliani just confessed that he took an illegal six figure payout from a company that was being indirectly run by a Ukrainian oligarch, meaning he violated federal law. Maybe Rudy figures that since he’s been nailed anyway, he might as well try to normalize his crime by confessing to it. Either that, or he’s too far gone to be able to control what’s coming out of his mouth. In any case, Rudy just confessed to the crime that’s going to put him away.





The post Rudy Giuliani just confessed appeared first on Palmer Report.

These developments suggest a future in which both non-state and state actors will contest the United States through online disinformation campaigns, even while more traditional global power competition tied to geography continues to play out. Moreover, it seems inevitable that the ChineseIranians, and others will escalate their malign social media efforts much as the Russians have done. FBI Director Christopher Wray recently acknowledged that other countries have been exploring such influence efforts. 
Only time will tell what form these escalating campaigns will take, but they will doubtless continue to harness new technologies. Artificial intelligence is already being used to create deep fakes: still and video imagery so realistic that they can foment fear and confusion at a level that affects national security.

U.S. counterintelligence must go on the offensive to expose disinformation. Today’s influence operations target Americans who are polarized and susceptible to believing that which confirms their predispositions. We need an intelligence community that, in key respects, works very much in the open, identifying disinformation spread by foreign adversaries and swiftly debunking it before it can “go viral” and entrench itself in American minds. Social media, then, can be a potent double-edged sword: a place where disinformation begins to spread but is quickly identified and rebutted.
Getting this right demands a number of key steps. First is better, faster understanding by the U.S. government of what disinformation American adversaries are spreading—or, ideally, anticipation of that spread before it actually happens. That, in turn, requires penetrating foreign governments in traditional intelligence-gathering ways, but it also means dramatically increasing our investment in “open-source” intelligence gathering, meaning scouring and analyzing what’s available to anyone—such as the internet.
Second is, in appropriate circumstances, the swift, clear, and direct intervention of U.S. government spokespersons to expose falsities and provide the truth. That includes unmasking and debunking publicly the disinformation U.S. adversaries are spreading and the sources peddling it—a public-facing role for U.S. intelligence agencies that is unfamiliar but vital in the modern era of influence campaigns.
Third is an expanded set of U.S. government partnerships with technologies companies to help them identify disinformation poised to spread across their platforms so that they can craft appropriate responses. While tech companies have unique insights into their own platforms, the government has unique insights across platforms and, moreover, in connecting developments in the virtual and physical worlds. The government’s focus has long been on safeguarding what it knows, but it has become at least as important for the government to share certain information quickly with private sector actors who can act on it.
