How public PartisanGirl has made herself out in various claims, the idea that Brown Moses is singlehandedly doxxing her (as if that's an issue as she uses her academic career as legitimacy) is well, yeah.

Its apparently quite the common meme in off-forum sites. I met up with a friend who went from FYAD to LF to Rizzorwone or whatever and heard an actual ramble about how Brown Moses is a CIA agent who does the bidding of USG and has been spying on leftist organizations and how LEOs troll FYAD to set up 'honeypots' and that Brown Moses is using you for [nefarious government false flag purpose].

I've been worried about his growing paranoia for years, and finally seen he has had a full-fledged psychotic break. :ohdear:

The more I think about Kobane the less I understand the ISIS strategy. My understanding is that it is of importance logistically and I am sure it would be a boon to recruiting to take a large city despite air strikes. But holding a large city empty of inhabitants with the Turkish army and irregular Kurdish groups just across the border possibly staging raids, etc. seems like it would be difficult even if they don't lose large numbers in taking it in the first place. As long as the Kurdish groups have a safe haven in Turkey that ISIS doesn't feel like it can attack without triggering entry of the Turks into the fight I don't see how they can hold the ground.

Despite the name, ISIS/IS' behavior is highly inconsistent with a group that wants to establish a state insofar as the word "state" carries any kind of meaning, but very very consistent with creating as much goddamned instability as possible in a very central region of the world.

I've said it before ITT but it bears repeating: The likely outcome of all this mess (unless the US directly or by proxy straight-up goes to bat for Assad to preserve the regime) will be a sweep of devastated, starving, traumatized, fractured ungovernable mess between Turkey, Israel, Iran, and Saudi Arabia, with those four parties all needing to work together to contain it. Take a minute to consider any two of those four working together on anything at all. Or, say, American attempts to broker dialogue between them.

As a new political entity attempting to establish a lasting presence they're rank failures, but as aspirant suicide bombers of the postcolonial political order they're wildly successful.

I think they must be confusing the situation. Dan Kaszeta contacted her university with concerns after she started getting copied into his and Ted Postol's discussions on the use of hexamine in the Sarin used on August 21st. I've found any time anyone has tried to attack me and Dan over our work using Partisan Girl's and Ted Postol's work they seem unable to tell me what the work actually says. They just nod their head along to anything that makes Assad look innocent.

Yeah, uh, that's certainly one extremely simplified way to characterize it. We blew the poo poo out of that city and god knows how many civilians, and certainly radicalized a fuckload of them with the war crime that went on there. I'm sure there were bad people there too, but :lol: if you think the siege of Fallujah was anywhere near discriminate enough to meaningfully target them.

Tear gas right now on live feed of the Turkish side of the Kobane border against just a couple of Kurds standing around. Maybe its pre-recorded, I dunno.

I guess they are throwing rocks, just saw a soldier get bloodied. They are throwing/shooting tear gas everywhere now.

And definitely on a loop.

While some of the corpses were obviously blast damaged, the discolouration pattern of the skin is similar on all of them. I think it's to do with the thinner flesh on the face pretty much cooking off/starting to mummify in the heat faster than the thicker parts, and the abundance of flies on/around some of the bodies makes me think they aren't exactly fresh- which could be backed up by the (presumably) Daesh dudes strolling around nonchalantly, this wasn't an active battlefield.

re: blackface corpses, this link has an explanation: http://www.exploreforensics.co.uk/the-rate-of-decay-in-a-corpse.html

Basically the decay becomes visible in places with lots of blood vessels near the skin first.
