southfront--2020-08-22--U.S. Combat Drones Resume Operations Over Syria’s Greater Idlib Despite Recent Accident

Not once has SF told it ’ s readers who the US is attacking and why , so I wonder why they don ’ t , is it a secret , it certainly seems to be , but I hate secrets so I have to spoil the party for SF , sorry .
I read the comments section and a lot of people seem unsure as to where and how the US drones get to their targets , but that ’ s easy to answer if you know who the US is attacking and the reason why they ’ re @ @ @ @ @ @ @ need to know who actually benefits from the drone strikes , then it all becomes crystal clear .
You should all be aware by now that the US isn ’ t attacking HTS targets , it ’ s JUST THE PRO TURKISH FACTIONS that the US attacks , NOT HTS .
So why does the US attack them and why are they allowed to attack with obvious impunity , apparently there are no objections from Russia , Turkey , Syria or Iran , which is something else the comments section seemed curious about @ @ @ @ @ @ @ most people aren ’ t aware these attacks actually benefit Russia , Turkey , Syria and Iran , as well as the US and the UN .
UN Resolution 2254 is the answer to all the contradictions , this resolution ties all the contradictions and all the ambiguous connections together into one simple and easy to understand explanation , but first you need to understand what resolution 2254 is and what it does , and that ’ s too complicated for me to explain now , simply put it ’ s the process @ @ @ @ @ @ @ to undertake to reform the constitution and political process , I suggest you do some research on the subject , it explains 99 % of everything you need to know about Syria .
Resolution 2254 is Russia , Turkey , and Iran ’ s resolution , they drew it up and proposed it to the UN and it was accepted unanimously , but Assad didn ’ t like the deal and refused to sign it for nearly 5 years .
Then late last year the UN offered to make a new deal with @ @ @ @ @ @ @ Assad accepted it the very same day , now they ’ re in the process of rewriting the constitution and after that they begin political reforms .
So as I said all the parties concerned have good reason to implement this resolution , Russia , Turkey , Iran , the US and the UN , and of course Syria too , since Assad finally agreed to the resolution , but if anyone ’ s been paying any attention it ’ s become blatantly obvious Assad ’ s actually been dragging his feet concerning @ @ @ @ @ @ @ doing trade deals with HTS as one example , so as much as Assad ’ s agreed to implement the resolution he ’ s actually taking his own good time to do it [ he ’ s a clever chap ] .
: ] Then we also have to understand why the US attacks the specific groups that it does , so if you google the faction names that all US victims have belonged to , you ’ ll find they all belong to the pro Turkish factions who actually rejected the Astana @ @ @ @ @ @ @ in place to help implement resolution 2254 .
So the US victims are all opposed to Turkey ’ s agreement with Russia , mmm , that ’ s why neither Russia or Turkey object to the US killing them , the pro Turkish factions don ’ t like the fact their terrorist buddies were left out of the Astana agreement so they rejected Erdogan ’ s deal , so now the US is just doing Turkey ’ s dirty work for them , killing the terrorist leaders that are trying their hardest to @ @ @ @ @ @ @ So the US drones most likely use Turkish airspace to get to their targets and Erdogan refuses to acknowledge his complicity in the strikes , he ’ s more than happy to see the people who oppose his political proposals killed but he can ’ t afford the bad publicity himself , so he lets the US do it instead , and Russia has no objections either , they also want resolution 2254 implemented as soon as possible .
And if you google search for the faction names you ’ ll also find @ @ @ @ @ @ @ targeted are also opposed to the Russian Turkish agreement to reopen the M4 highway .
Keep doing trade deals with HTS president Assad , F–K resolution 2254 and the Astana agreements , and F—K your allies too when they stab you in the back .

U.S. combat drones have resumed operations over the northwestern Syrian region of Greater Idlib, which is controlled by several terrorist groups.
A General Atomics MQ-9 Reaper unmanned combat aerial vehicle was photographed flying over the region on August 20. Opposition activities spotted several other U.S. combat drones flying over different parts of the region on the same day as well as on August 21.
The MQ-9 appeared to be armed with two AGM-114 Hellfire-type missiles. The drone was also equipped with two large pods, likely for communication or intelligence gathering.
The MQ-9 Reaper was again spotted in Idlib province after a recent incident with #Turkish air defenses. The loss of one drone is probably not a reason for the #UnitedStates to halt its operations against militants.#Syria pic.twitter.com/i6kSPY00SD — Sukhoi Su-57 Felon ???? (@I30mki) August 21, 2020
On August 18, two MQ-9 drones crashed in Greater Idlib after colliding midair in a mysterious accident. Syrian sources claimed that Turkish air-defense fire was behind the accident. However, this is yet to be proven.
U.S. combat drones carried out a series of strikes on prominent terrorist commanders in Greater Idlib over the last few months.
The most recent strike, which took place on August 13, claimed the life of Abu Yahya al-Uzbeki, an infamous military trainer who worked for several terrorist groups in Greater Idlib.
U.S. combat drones often carry out its strikes on Greater Idlib with an advanced version of the Hellfire missile known as the AGM-114R9X “Ninja Bomb.” This version has a kinetic warhead consisting of pop-out blades meant to reduce collateral damage.
In the last few years, Greater Idlib became a safe haven for terrorist groups in the Middle East. ISIS leader, Abu Baker al-Baghdadi, was killed in a U.S. raid on the region earlier this year. Turkey which maintains a large force in the region is turning a blind eye.

Fatih, named after Ottoman Sultan Mehmed II, is one of three drill ships operated by the Turkish Petroleum Corporation (TPAO).
“Turkey has made the biggest natural gas discovery in the Black Sea,” the Anadolu Agency quoted Erdogan as saying.
The gas reserve will be called ”Sakarya”. It can allegedly meet Turkey’s gas needs for the previous 20 years.
Erdogan promised that the discovered gas would be put in public use by 2023. A day earlier, Turkish sources had said Ankara might need seven to ten years and up to $3 billion to start production in the Tuna-1 field.
The discovery of a major gas reserve could not be more relevant. Its main gas supplier, Russia’s Gazprom, has set a high price of $ 228 per thousand cubic meters, while it receives only $ 82 for exports to Europe. This was the reason for Turkey’s gradual transition to cheaper alternatives, primarily pipeline gas from Azerbaijan. The opening of a new field allows Ankara to significantly increase its own reserves, while Turkey becomes a key hub for gas from the Eastern and Mediterranean fields to Europe.
Besides Turkish drilling in the Black Sea, the TPAO’s activities continue in Eastern Mediterranean. Ankara’s unilateral activities resulted in a serious crisis with Greece, Egypt and most recently with France.

Cuba also has three other vaccine candidates in development. In fact, of the new coronavirus patients treated on the island since April 14 with Heberón (the commercial name of the interferon-alpha 2b developed with Cuban technology), only 5.5 percent reached the stage of seriousness, and the lethality among them was 0.9 percent.
Cuba has a long tradition of administering, producing and developing prophylactic drugs, since the remarkable physician and hygienist Tomás Romay applied the anti-pox peptide to his children in 1796 to prove its effectiveness. The island p11 prophylactic vaccines and in recent decades has created the anti-hepatitis B, anti-meningococcal BC, Haemophilus Influenzae B vaccines and the promising therapeutic vaccines against lung (Cimavax) and pancreatic cancer. An average of 4.8 million doses of vaccine, single or combined, are administered annually in Cuba protecting people against 13 diseases produced in the country. Begun in 1962, Cuba’s immunization program has led to the elimination of six diseases, two serious clinical forms, and two serious complications that existed previously, with the remaining diseases maintaining incidence and mortality rates that are not a health problem.
Havana has confronted COVID-19 and diseases such as dengue hemorrhagic fever and hemorrhagic conjunctivitis basically through the application of drugs produced today by the Biocubafarma business complex, the heir and continuator of the complex of research centers created at the initiative of Fidel. Biocubafarma is working on 16 projects of new treatments and medical technologies to prevent and fight Covid-19. Of these, 11 are already in the phase of clinical studies or intervention trials on patients and groups at risk.
Biocubafarma has evaluated five products for preventive purposes in order to stimulate both innate and adaptive immunity in different people, including healthcare personnel. Among them, Biomodulin T has shown great effectiveness; applied to a group of elderly people, none had been infected with the coronavirus since the last time I asked.
The best proof of the effectiveness of bioscience products and the competent work of Cuban health personnel in confronting COVID-19 is in the data on the behavior of the disease on the island. Of the 3842 confirmed cases, 2863 have been recovered, 88 have died and 761 have been admitted, of which only seven are reported as serious and four as critical. All of this has taken place despite the harmful impact of the U.S. blockade, cruelly tightened by Donald Trump.

southfront--2020-08-23--Permitted Unlawfulness: The New Zealand Coronavirus Lockdown

It is a study both troublesome and perplexing .
To what end can a state trample on human rights ostensibly to preserve such objects a public health ?
The coronavirus lockdowns have become a feature of global politics and relentless mandatory intrusion , the health department made sovereign , assisted by vigorous policing .
States have used , and continue to use all manner of measures to confine individuals to homes , mask them , restrict movement , while , in some cases , shutting them up as dissenters and hurrying them into obscurity .
The end sought : viral @ @ @ @ @ @ @ .
But what might be saved in terms of health will be lost in terms of liberties .
One country made the brave , somewhat quixotic journey to battle the coronavirus to elimination .
New Zealand ’ s Ardern government was determined to quash it .
In doing so , it imposed one of the most onerous of lockdowns over the course of March and April , 2020 .
It was not without controversy , and Wellington lawyer Andrew Borrowdale took issue with its sheer expansiveness .
A particular point of interest for @ @ @ @ @ @ @ five-week lockdown , specifically the calls between March 26 and April 3 by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and her officials for New Zealanders to stay home under pain of penalty .
The timing is important here as the stay home restrictions were only formally passed on April 3 .
The country ’ s 1956 Health Act provides for what is called a “ Section 70 ” notice , issued by a Health Officer to restrict movement .
This can be done if the relevant minister has issued an Epidemic Notice pursuant to the @ @ @ @ @ @ @ , the Prime Minister did on March 24 .
Unfortunately for Ardern , the Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield ’ s Section 70 notice , which came into effect on March 26 , only covered the closure of businesses .
It was , in other words , defective .
There had been , for instance , no formal instrument legitimising the need for New Zealanders to stay at home in their “ bubbles ” or not go to such public spaces as the beach .
In an assessment by insolvency practitioner and columnist @ @ @ @ @ @ @ “ issue a slew of orders that were outside her remit .
Parliament had deliberately kept that power out of our elected representatives and placed it into the hands of competent medical officials.

“Limitation is essential to authority. A government is legitimate only if it is effectively limited.” Lord Acton
It is a study both troublesome and perplexing. To what end can a state trample on human rights ostensibly to preserve such objects a public health? The coronavirus lockdowns have become a feature of global politics and relentless mandatory intrusion, the health department made sovereign, assisted by vigorous policing. States have used, and continue to use all manner of measures to confine individuals to homes, mask them, restrict movement, while, in some cases, shutting them up as dissenters and hurrying them into obscurity. The end sought: viral suppression, flattening the curve, elimination. But what might be saved in terms of health will be lost in terms of liberties.
One country made the brave, somewhat quixotic journey to battle the coronavirus to elimination. New Zealand’s Ardern government was determined to quash it. In doing so, it imposed one of the most onerous of lockdowns over the course of March and April, 2020.
It was not without controversy, and Wellington lawyer Andrew Borrowdale took issue with its sheer expansiveness. A particular point of interest for him were the early stages of the five-week lockdown, specifically the calls between March 26 and April 3 by Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern and her officials for New Zealanders to stay home under pain of penalty. The timing is important here as the stay home restrictions were only formally passed on April 3.
The country’s 1956 Health Act provides for what is called a “Section 70” notice, issued by a Health Officer to restrict movement. This can be done if the relevant minister has issued an Epidemic Notice pursuant to the Epidemic Preparedness Act of 2006. This, the Prime Minister did on March 24. Unfortunately for Ardern, the Director-General of Health Ashley Bloomfield’s Section 70 notice, which came into effect on March 26, only covered the closure of businesses. It was, in other words, defective. There had been, for instance, no formal instrument legitimising the need for New Zealanders to stay at home in their “bubbles” or not go to such public spaces as the beach.
In an assessment by insolvency practitioner and columnist Damien Grant, Ardern proceeded to imperially “issue a slew of orders that were outside her remit. Parliament had deliberately kept that power out of our elected representatives and placed it into the hands of competent medical officials.” Those elected representatives were now running amok – at least for a short time.
Other officials also did the same. The then police commissioner Mike Bush, charges Grant, was operating outside his jurisdictional remit in saying “you’re better to stay on the comfort of your own couch or your own home than be cooling yourself on a very cool bench in a police cell.”
The result of this bungling in drafting was only rectified by another Section 70 notice, designed to square the implemented lockdown measures with what authorities could legally do. But it had taken nine days of over-extended and illegitimate power.
The finding by the New Zealand Supreme Court was not exactly a sweeping triumph for Borrowdale or his lawyer Tiho Mijatov, who had argued that generous and permissive interpretations of such health provisions should not happen even during the course of a pandemic emergency. The court took with one and gave with another. But with that, Borrowdale had made a salient and pressing point. The three judges acknowledged that, even during “times of emergency, and even when the merits of the Government response are not widely contested, the rule of law matters.” The executive was not entitled to behave absolutely.
While the court dismissed two out of the three grounds, they did accept Borrowdale’s first contention, in part. They noted announcements by the executive between March 26 and April 3 stating or implying that all New Zealanders needed to “stay at home and in their ‘bubbles’ when there was no such requirement.” These duly limited “certain rights and freedoms affirmed by the New Zealand Bill of Rights Act 1990, including in particular, the rights to freedom of movement, peaceful assembly and association.” The court accepted “that the requirement was a necessary, reasonable and proportionate response to the COVID-19 crisis at that time” but it “was not prescribed by law.”
The substantive effect of the decision will be minimal, even if the lesson on illegitimate power is telling. Prosecutions for breaching the lowdown rules will remain, for the most part, valid. Attorney General David Parker emphasised the didactic point behind the measures: the State as instructor and guide on how to cope with a dangerous pandemic. “The Government was trying to educate people about the health risks and transition them quickly to take actions that curtailed normal freedoms like staying at home to stop the spread of the virus.” He claimed these actions to be a success. “In the end the measures taken by the government worked to eliminate COVID-19, save lives and minimise damage to our economy.”
The virus, however, has shown a guile to throw off epidemiologists, health specialists, and politicians. Like Galileo’s observation on the earth, it moves. Even the harshest measures have not guaranteed elimination. Where there is mobility, there is transmission. Even the most sedentary of people will eventually feel the urge to step outside. COVID-19, and more lockdown measures, are now in place in Auckland. To date, Ardern’s reassurance, and one that may have to be revised in due course, is that community transmission has been prevented. She is bound to be more legally attuned this time around.

DARPAtv live-streamed AlphaDogfight Trials Competition on Thursday (Aug. 20), which featured an AI-controlled virtual fighter jet beating a human pilot in a series of simulated dogfights.
The AI-system, developed by Heron Systems, a Maryland-based defense contractor, beat one of the Air Force’s top General Dynamics F-16 Fighting Falcon pilots, reported Breaking Defense.
Fully-autonomous fighter jets are years away, but the Air Force and DARPA appear to be honing in on the possibilities of integrating artificial intelligence systems into combat flying machines. The live event was streamed on several platforms, including YouTube and Zoom, which shows AI systems have the ability in 2020 to operate an aircraft with skill and in a one-on-one combat scenario, out-gunning a human pilot, even though it was in a simulation.
One of the hosts during the simulated dogfight noted the AI system has “superhuman” shooting capabilities that produced an edge over the human pilot.
Video: AlphaDogfight Trials Final Event
Timothy Grayson, director of the Strategic Technology Office at DARPA, described the simulation as successful and said it’s a victory for humans and machines to team up for combat:
“I think what we’re seeing today is the beginning of something I’m going to call human-machine symbiosis… Let’s think about the human sitting in the cockpit, being flown by one of these AI algorithms as truly being one weapon system, where the human is focusing on what the human does best [like higher order strategic thinking] and the AI is doing what the AI does best,” Grayson said.
While fully autonomous fighter jets conducting dogfights are years outs, if not at the end of the decade, what’s more, plausible, in the next five years, is AI integrating into the flight systems of fighter jets, especially stealth ones, to assist pilots during complex combat situations.
